Title: Feeling unwell after Injections..
Post by: JamesV6CDX on 29 August 2008, 16:58:49
Yesterday at about 8pm I had a course of injections, Tetanus, Hep B, and others.

My arm feels like I can hardly move it still, and I've felt really distant and vague since.

Is this normal and will wear off? It's so long since I was jabbed I can't remember....  :-/

Tetnus tends to do that...lasts a few days.

Hep B does as well -- you will likely have a dead arm for a while, and possibly feel a little "fluey".

I had my last course of "anti public" injections quite a while ago (talking a number of years) and have felt vague and distant ever since  :D  Could be early onset senility in my case tho  :D :D

Anti Public Injections - what a great description.

I was the first one into the medical room, and I came out holding my backside and walking funny.... some of the other recruits faces were a picture ;D

They all leave you feeling pretty pump so together I am not suprised you are feeling like sh!te.

Before going to Kenya on a medical hearts and minds mission a couple of years ago I had Typhoid, Meningitis x+y (already had the a+c) + Hep B all on the same day.  To tell you I was feeling like cr@p was an understatement.  My temp was topping at 103 degrees and I could hardly move my neck!  :D

Yep I have to have a booster in 4 weeks, I think another one in a few months after that - and then I'm good for 5 years, providing I don't come in contact with any sharps, etc...

I am pretty cheesed off at no longer being able to give blood ----- at the last session I went to ( long time ago now) they discovered dangerously high BP and dobbed me in to the medics --- they won't let me give the stuff now  :-[

I had a flu jab last year.  Didn't agree with me at all.  Made my brain go fuzzy (alright, fuzzier) and I had trouble driving the car.  Since then I've picked up every bug going - and that's a lot - the wife's a teacher and she brings them home from school, I think.

Mind you, I haven't had flu...

I know it's corny but i'm terrified of needles, can't even look at a syringe. I can bear them if i have to have one, they don't actually hurt but i can't even watch someone else having a jab on telly, really freaks me. It's the moment the needle pierces the skin i can't handle it just does me up.
     Silly as it seems when i was a kid @ school having the various jabs in the top of the left arm never bothered me. ::)

I hate jabs but I couldn't look like a wuss in front of 17 of my peers - so I just grinned and told the doc to stick me  ;D

He was good, kept me talking while it went in, I didn't feel a lot at the time.
