the last couple of weeks my fnd has been quite a lot worse. The only thing different has been my flu jab. Coincidence or not?

I've wondered about this. I got a tetanus/diphtheria jab last week and I've felt terrible since. My arm ached so much I couldn't sleep. Never had this reaction before I got FND. Actual FND symptoms are worse too.

Maybe I have been lucky, but no adverse FND effects after covid or flu jab.

Prob not an effect of the flu jab then . so frustrating when you get a flare up and dont know why so cant know how to avoid another. 😩

It is very difficult to know what causes an exacerbation, but then not all of us have the same symptoms to start with ,,not easy.

I usually have my flu jab and my vaccine for covid separately as it's recommended by my health professionals because I have non epileptic seizures and I have eye seizures which if I have these jab together I end up having a seizures straightaway after my jabs. They refused me to have them when I told them.
