My GI had told me in June I should get the pneumonia shot along with my flu shot and Hpv shot. I got the flu shot last week and this year got all my Hpv shots. The pneumonia vaccine was tricky because when I went to get one at the pharmacy. They looked at me like I was crazy. Since I'm 20 and they said that's for older people. So this week I went to see the GI again and he had asked me if I got it, explained to him how I tried and couldn't, so they just gave it to me there in the clinic.
That was Tuesday and I have a lump that's hard and sore on my arm that has grown since Tuesday. But today I feel like I have the flu! My head is throbbing, my throat hurts, I'm dizzy, fatigued, my whole body aches,nose is running. I've looked on google and find different responses.
Have any of you on biologics had to get the pneumonia vaccine and had this type of reaction? Should I call the Dr or wait it out?
