hello everyone- received the flu shot exactly 1 week ago {Fluzone Quadrivalent Vaccine}. 3 days later on Sat. I woke up with the most painful neck and headache ever {just on the ride side!} I joked around with my husband and asked him if he hit me in the middle of the night with a hammer :) that's how painful it was. I also noticed the slight swollen of my lymph nodes and ear area again only on the right side.... side effects of the flu shot no doubt. By Wed. today- day 5- my head was in so much pain and I had an on again off again pinchy sensation.... finally went to go see a doc. thought it was a migraine. Well she saw small red rash with little blister type things on my right scalp already starting to crust over- she concluded I had Shingles- I'm a 47 female. I'm currently taking mediation for the pain and some anti inflammatory pills- not visible since it's under the hairline but hurts like hell. you see the flu shot triggered a dormant virus I didn't even know I had- this sucks..........., I think I'd rather have the flu :( Last time I get the flu shot. God I hope no one gets sick because of me- I mean the fluid on my scalp I doubt has come into contact with anyone but still..........,
