I am not familiar with the acronym URTI. What does it mean, unreasonable, temporarily irritable? So true, it is good that the immunization exists. I feel better this afternoon, less grumpy as I am in recovery from the side effect.

It is not uncommon forTetanus immunizations to cause slight fever and aching (usually localized to the injection site) for a few days. Some people get it and some don't. Either way is normal. It never bothered me. Osidge is right though...better than the disease.
