Preservative Free Flu Vaccines?

I have an appointment with my doctor tomorrow and was planning to ask for the flu shot then.  Now I just read that you should ask for a preservative free vaccine because the others have mercury in them?  Does anyone know anything about this?  Has anyone gotten a preservative free flu vaccine?

 Thanks so much!

    I had Kaiser in WA when I was pg last year, and they only had thimerosal-free shots.  However, OR might be different.  My doc said all the shots at my office were thimerosal-free because of a WA mandate. 

    Same at Kaiser in Oregon...
