Subject: BS: Flu Shot Yesterday, Flu Today?
No, but it sure feels like it. I usually don't have reactions to flu shots. Usually it is just a little itchiness and heat around the injection site and that is gone in a day or so. This year the shot was totally painless. Teflon coated needle and if I weren't looking I would have never known I had been injected!

But today is a different story! Not my usual migraine. This one is on both sides of my head. It's not as debilitating as a migraine headache can be but it is bad enough and no med has touched it so far. Throw in the achey joints and zombie-like lethargy and that is how my day has been so far today. I was told they had two different strains they were vacinating for. Maybe that's it. Has anyone else had trouble with the shots?
