Flu & Covid jab together?!

I’ve booked mine for next Tuesday, both in one arm as last year. Might feel a bit grim for a day or two, but it soon passes.

Yes both together in the same arm.Felt ill 12 hours after for 12 hours,get the same every year.Much better for me to get it over with,rather than spreading the jabs out.

I had my flu jab last weekend and Covid yesterday. Sitting here scrolling since 4am struggling to use my arm and feeling very nauseous. Never had a reaction to the jabs before.

Had mine on Saturday. Both in the same arm. Just felt the usual “unwellness” for a couple of days.
Now the RSV was a totally different story - with that, I felt ill for three days.
I had no arm inflammation in either case.

Had both a week ago. Well I think I did. No sore arms or feeling iffy. Great, done with the minimum of fuss.

had them both this morning. Spent the afternoon gardening and I am feeling fine.

Pride goes before aa fall. I woke up in the night completely unable to breathe through my nose and with my mouth as dry as dust. I used Vick to sort that out but then my left arm and hans started aching.

This was puzzling as I had both jabs in my right arm as I had a carpal tunnel procedure on my left arm about a month ago, which has healed, but both sides of the severed carpal tunnel were aching enough to wake me up and I had pain down my arm.

I seem to be OK this morning.

I had both together last year had no side effects best to have them though but as someone said we are all different

I had both together in one arm Tuesday afternoon and felt really poorly yesterday all day after a sleepless night. I slept well last night though and feel much better today. No arm ache to speak of, it was more like flu and I had to cancel all my plans yesterday and felt very sorry for myself!

I have both together, had less reaction than when I had them a week apart. Pure chance of course.

Had them together last year and this. I’m 68. Flu arm a bit sore for day and Covid arm had itchy red patch for 3/4 days.

I had both a few days ago and am fine. I just had a slightly sore arm when I lay on it,

The only problem I've had with covid and flu jabs was last year and it was operator error not the fault of the vaccine. The nurse did the injection too high, it was agony and the agony went on for days. Had my jabs yesterday and told the nurse I was nervous about what had happened and she said it is rare but was very careful.

The 2nd shingles jab was the only vaccine I've ever had a problem with, I was so ill that DH cancelled having his done.

Hope that soon resolves, I think it is a shock if you haven't had problems before. I've never been nervous of jabs but after the injection going in the wrong place last year I was feeling a bit jittery yesterday. The nurse showed me where she was doing it and didn't go ahead until I said OK. It can knock you.

I was warned with the shingles jab so was ready for the after affects, well I thought I was but it did make me feel really rough.

I’m still feeling unwell today. Had jabs Monday and developed my first sore throat in ages, overnight. Stomach upset and throat still bad. Hoping it wears off soon.

I'm on blood thinners. I had a covid jab in one arm and the flu one in the other. Yes the covid arm was a bit stiff but it soon went after a few days. Better that than not having it I say

Had the flu and COVID jabs on Sunday with no ill effects afterwards.

I had the flu jab on Saturday - no problems except a sore arm. Then had the Covid jab yesterday and have felt bad all day today - migraine with aura and nausea. Feeling really tired now as well.

I’ve always had both together even last year 4 days after my hip operation . Booked for both next week and last week had shingles and pneumonia jabs together.
Luckily I’ve never had any reaction. Not sure if my arms ache because of them as they always do anyway.

I had both jabs on Monday - one in each arm - and have had no side effects at all.

I had one in each arm yesterday, with one side-effects. This morning I have the equivalent of a minor bruise feeling.
I'm told there is a Covid spike in this area

I had the flu jab yesterday, very painful arm, it’s red down to my elbow. It will pass ready for the Covid jab in a week.

We had both yesterday, feeling a little below par today, but nothing that we can't cope with and just pleased and grateful to get some renewed protection.

As NanaK 54 , we both had both yesterday , one in each arm. As you said pleased and grateful .
DH has sore arms and slightly more achy than he usually is but feels fine. I 've lost the day , sleepy , headache , no energy which is unusual. Can't wait for bedtime , sure I 'll be alright tomorrow. It happens every year with flu not covid, but think severity depends on the strain they target.

I had one today an have booked the other for three weeks hence. Don't want my body taking two hits at once. Daft maybe, but has always worked for me.

I've never usually had a problem with either jab previously apart from a bit of a sore arm for a couple of days. I had flu and covid jab in each arm last Saturday and up until Wednesday I was feeling fine but these past few days I've felt a bit under par and headachy. I suppose they affect everyone differently and they are a different variant each year, that's what I'm putting it down to anyway
