Flu jab shouldn't do anything other than protect you. No live virus there. Only issues for people with egg intolerance as virus grown on eggs.
Thank you 👍
I have one every year since forever (AF started 8 years ago) and have never had any issues
I have had them many years .. perfectly o.k. BUT this year 12 hours later went into my first full blown A.,fib in over 3 years since I had my ablation. Then three days after i.e. this this tuesday started coughing. I now have a really nasty lung infection and am on steroids and anti biotics. Now I query which caused which. The flu jab causing the A.fib or the lung infection was lurking in the background and caused the a.fib.
GP said we will "take precautions" next year.
Thank you for your comments
