It's highly unlikely that you're actually getting the flu every year. Very highly unlikely. Most people confuse other illnesses with the flu. Even doctors do it. It was only about 10 to 15% of those suspected to have the flu and tested for it that actually did have it, when the CDC looked at the numbers a couple years ago. That means 85 to 90% of people who believe they have the flu and whose doctors believe they have the flu do NOT have it.
