Symptom narrative

12 hours after vaccine was awaken with serious FLU like symptoms. I felt like I had been hit by a truck, SEVERE headache, and heart palpitations. The racing heart while lying down was very concerning that I considered getting medical help. Issue were serious enough I was unable to work and was in bed like 20 hours. Took Advil and did not help with symptoms. I could not function in any capacity and would not have taken 2nd shot had I known of effects. Felt better after 2 days and wanted to report issues I had.
