Has anyone else felt nauseas three or four days after the flu jab? I thought I got away with it ok after having it mid week but feeling pretty crappy today - stomach ache, nauseas, headache… 😟anyone else? Hope it goes soon!

I don't usually notice any problems but this year I had a day of headaches and feeling off a few days later.

I would say it's likely you've picked something up other than it being the flu jab.

You couldn't be pregnant?

I’m usually fine after my flu jab but this year I was just like you describe and there were other people that we know that said the same. Hoping that as it created such an immune response that it’s worked well.

I’m hoping it clears soon…

How long did it take you to feel better @Georgieporgie29 ? Im

Whenever I've had the flu jab I've had a few days of mild nausea. Not the sort where you actually think you might throw up, just a general nauseated yucky feeling.

I just thought after this amount of time it may have gone by now but maybe it’s normal! Feeling nauseas on and off, tired and just a bit bleugh!

It actually took me a couple of weeks until I was completely better, after the first week it had eased a lot though.
I do have a chronic condition so I put the longevity down to that.
i hope you’re feeling better soon

After flu jab in one arm and Covid in the other I got nausea, and after a day, stomach cramps worse than gallstones. Cleared up in a couple of days, but it was a week before I dared eat anything other than dry toast
