I,m exactly the same since my flu jab. I was fine last year but this time the pain and pressure in my head is terrible. I can't sleep at night with the pressure . I think it must be the strain of flu virus they have used this year and I definitely won't be having one next year. I hope this doesn,t last much longer.
