Symptom narrative

23 hrs after I received the high dose flu shot I got hit with an extreme Vertigo reaction. I have never had vertigo in my life prior to his shot, nor did I have ear issues, infections, ringing..etc. it was so bad the spinning was intense, followed by 45 mins of vomiting, with perfuse sweating. my blood pressure raised to 167/100 which is typically ranges from 117 - 120s...this lasted for 1 hr. before I had any type of relief. the extreme vomiting, sweating, spinning was horrendous. my husband wanted to call EMS, I wouldn't let him, blood pressure went from 167 to 147/90 to 162/90....the next morning Vertigo was gone. only had slight dizzyness , low grade headache, weekness and chills for 1 day by Sunday back to normal...I won't recommend my husband getting the high dose since he has had bouts of Vertigo I don't want him to suffer from this reaction
