Sounds like you are panicking :( I get that weird feeling when I'm out in public as well, I don't feel like myself at all. Try not to panic. If you had a blood clot in your lung you would know about it as its as painful as hell. You would be in the emergency department. So no you don't have one :) Try to relax and listen to music or read a book. 

Sorry you are suffering with anxiety as a result of the shot. Is there any way you can distract yourself? Are there things like movies, walking etc. that could distract you?
