I am SO glad you checked the list and read these ingredients. Yes, I think it's entirely possible that with your common reactions to formaldehyde and ether glycols, you might have gotten side effects following vaccines made with those ingredients.
Interesting that it has happened some years and not others. I wonder if you received vaccines that were made in different ways int he years when you didn't have this reaction?
If I were you I would print out the ingredients and tuck them in your purse so that the next time you see your primary care doctor you can ask her or him their thoughts on this. It may be that simply taking an antihistimine for a few days after a flu shot would relieve your symptoms, for instance.
