Flu jab

Having the flu jab later, but no Covid jab for me 👍🏻

I had both Covid and flu jabs on Monday and was really poorly on Monday night. Haven’t felt brilliant since then. Don’t know if I’ll have them again.

Has mine last week. All fine. Also told the pharmacist well done as I didn't feel anything!

I remember the early covid jabs, felt needle and vaccine!

Pleased to say we didn’t have any reactions to our flu jabs a couple of weeks ago. I am due my second shingles jab next week and am hoping that goes as smoothly.

Thank you rinseandrepeat for stating the case for GPs so clearly. They need people to fight their corner.

Not stomach ache but it did seem to affect my eyesight which became very blurry, a bit like dilating drops when they have just begun to wear off. Very odd and a bit worrying. Seems a bit better today, six days later 🤞🏻

Usually get a 24-hour achey feeling after jab. But soon recover and must be better than getting the actual virus.

I don't know whether to have the flu jab or covid in the past
month I have had a Chest Infection' I had 2 lots of antibiotics
so perhaps I had better wait?

I had mine last week and within a few minutes of getting home I felt nauseous and very tired. I was sick that evening and felt exhausted the next day. We thought it might have been a coincidence and I might have picked up a stomach bug, but you never know.

Thanks Yorklady I thought it was just me! I have no appetite for food at all today

Had flu and Covid jab today so will let you know.

No

Funnily enough, I had my flu jab yesterday. No sore arm but today I feel really sick. Could be coincidence of course

Same here. I’m immunosuppressed so I have had reactions to previous vaccines
Day 3&4 feeling sick, no appetite.. day 5&6 complete fatigue and slept most of the afternoon. Still feeling nauseous..
Just had a thought, are we supposed to report these side effects?

Flu jab no side effects, and presumably the zumba class I did the following morning with all the arm movements helped deal with any stiffness.

Not eligible for covid now, but always in the past had adverse reactions to that, including feeling exhausted, went to bed and didn't wake up for 14 hours!!! Plus previous jabs causing loss of balance, feeling intensely cold and very unwell.

Had the flu jab the following week got the flu !!

I had mine a few days ago. I had a slight ache in my arm that evening but nothing else.

My husband is having awful stomach pain. Mind you he doesn't get his flu jab till next week.

Maybe there's a stomach bug on the loose.

I ve never ever had any side effects

I had the flu jab last Saturday. Felt achy and tired on Sunday and not much better on Monday. Yesterday I felt well enough to go out but today I feel sick and shaky.
I have an important meeting to go to tomorrow so 🤞🤞

I had it a month ago, just felt tired for 24 hours. Had the latest Covid one a couple of days ago, fine with that too.

Had flu vaccine 2 weeks ago. I didn’t have a sore arm and I usually would have.

I'm not sure if it's different in Scotland then or just my area.

Never had any problems.

In fact, I sometimes wonder whether I’ve actually had the jab as barely feel anything.

Yes me but I have IBS so stomach ache is normal for me.

I had my flu jab at the beginning of this month. Always have it as I have asthma, usually no side effects.
This time I felt awful for a week afterwards. Headache, tiredness, shivering and shaking, stomach ache.
Decided not to have the COVID one.

I'm fine
