hilfgirl33 Posted December 7, 2003 Report Share Posted December 7, 2003 I had my flu shot yesterday. I have been milking a cold/sinus thing but had been feeling pretty well for the past few days. Well today I feel like I am getting sick all over again. Do you think this could be a side effect of teh flu shot. I feel somewhat tired, stuffy nose, somewhat itchy (eyes and throat). I've had a cold for a month now and I hope I'm not getting another one on top of it.Also, about 20 minutes to 1 hour after I had the shot I felt kind of weird - light sensitive, shaky, cold, but it did pass. Do you think that could've been a reaction.My actual POTS seems not to be too affected by all this, so that is good news anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MightyMouse Posted December 7, 2003 Report Share Posted December 7, 2003 It is pretty normal after the vaccination to feel a bit sickly. The shot sets off an immune response. I usually get lots of aching at the injection site and feel really tired the next day or so, along with a bit like I'm coming down with a cold but not quite that bad.Nina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
