I had hep b vaccine whilst on 60mg pred had been on that dose for about 4mths took me more doses of vaccine b4 i had correct level of immunity but got there in the end. I had a few days of feelin bit fevery but it wore off wit no treatment.

If u feel unwell and it gets worse or it continues c ur gp or if bad do the 9's. Better safe than sorry! Think its quite normal to feel bit run down n urgh after vaccinations but anythin more than a general run down feelin shud prob b discussed wit a dr to be on safe side.

Take it easy n stay warm n well. Lv kat Xx
