3 years ago I had a severe physical reaction to the Pneumococcal vaccine which put me in Hospital for 2 days for observations.

At the time (and still having) I was fully vaccinated for covid and flu with no issues. I was offered the Pneumococcal vaccine as I am type2 Diabetic, with cirrosis, a couple of years earlier I was in Hospital for 3 weeks with severe sepsis and have severe Pneumonia in my past.

Has anybody else had any issues with this?

I had the pneumococcal vaccine a few weeks ago, but it didn't give me any problem. Maybe were you allergic?
