An hour after the shot I felt extreme fatigue/ ?wiped out,? upon waking next morning severe aching pain stiffness and tingling in entire left arm, about 24 hours after, I felt like my throat closed up to half its usual width and got scratchy, food was catching, felt like a sinus infection was coming on. The next day my I lost my voice and only squeaks came out for the next 2.5 days. I had flu symptoms and missed two days of work. This segued into severe headache and upper respiratory congestion, stomach pains and nausea with diarrhea, mucous-covered stool and constipation. Two nosebleeds over this time.
