Flu jab - feeling rough!

[Sassysally1]

Has anyone else found the flu jab has knocked them for six 😣 feeling awful since having it

I'm not pregnant, so I'm not sure if my reply is what you're looking for. However, I have asthma and have the flu jab every year, and it always makes me feel rough. I specifically now book it on a Friday so I can recover over the weekend. I hope you feel better soon, and if you're very worried or feeling very unwell please reach out to your medical team :)

I'm not pregnant but have the flu vaccine every year usually with just a sore arm, this year I was in bed for 24 hours with a temperature, shivers, nausea and pain in all my joints. I kept telling myself it's better than having the flu though (only had it once and was in bed a week and I'll for about 6 weeks).

I've had it previously where I had 24 hours of chills, body aches etc. Vanished quickly after 24 hours.

Not pregnant,(73) the very first az in 2020,laid me out for a few days, since then, nothing, occasionally a slight sore on injection site, of flu jab. Thursday, Covid and flu,big red swelling on arm, going down slightly now, felt cold and shivery a couple of days.

Thank you all for your replies they’ve been very useful to know! I’ve been in bed most of the day but I’m now hopeful I’ll feel better tomorrow!
