Severe arm pain after Prostap3

Hello,

I had the Prostap3 injection last Wednesday and my arm is so tender and I feel like a bit flu-like. I've spoken to a nurse at the hospital who's advised me to take painkillers, and said if it's not hot and red at the injection site, there's probably no need to be concerned.

I had the ProstapSr last month and I didn't have anything like this.

Has anyone experienced this with Prostap3?

Thanks in advance xxx

I had pro stap 3 injection and I was advised by my doctors if I have any worries about it too contact them and I have experienced flu like symptoms too when I was on pro stap injection and had painkillers too and after a couple of days I was fine but everyone reacts differently after having it 😊 hopefully you feel better soon

Thank you, that's reassuring. I'm seeing my GP for something unrelated on Thursday, so if I'm still feeling rough I can mention it then.
