Hi David, sorry to hear you're not well. Try not to do too much too soon. Let the abs get to work & hopefully you'll feel better in a few days.

I had my flu jab today & my arm feels really tender & a bit stiff. I'm sure it will be ok in a couple of days with a few paracetamol to help.

Get well soon 🌸

So strange - the flu jab had an effect on me this year too! Felt like I had the flu! Although it passed very quickly, it left me (I think it's down to that!) with a flare up of joint pain and rash which is connected to my autoimmune condition. Not nice. Hope you're better soon xx

Sorry to learn you've not been well and I've got my flu jab next Saturday,so I'm keeping everything crossed that it will all go OK. Keep yourself warm and hopefully you'll start to feel a little better very soon.

David, when you have recovered enough, please get a flu shot - it is so important that people like us with lung disease avoid getting the flu.

Sorry I guess the flu jab you had is a flu shot - duh - sometimes I don't comprehend and respond too quickly :(
