I got a flu shot and now I'm sick

My wife warned me not to get the flu shot. She told me and told me, but of course I didn't listen.

The 1st day, I took DayQuil all day long, but kept getting sicker, Now I've been hacking up a lung, sore throat, freezing cold, pounding headache, blah blah blah. I've been drinking hot coffee, followed by ice cold ginger ale, followed by orange juice. Chicken noodle soup, plenty of peppermints, Hall's cough drops, butterscotch, etc. I've switched to Mucinex, Tylenol, trying to just sleep it off, blah blah blah. This just stinks.

Perhaps next year, I'd be much wiser if l listen to the wife. perhaps.

My mom got Covid for the first time this September. I wanted to make sure she knew, there was no reason to get a booster covid shot when she went to get her flu shot since she has now had covid. She gets a flu shot every year. She told me she already got the flue shot. :( Then I wondered if Kaiser gave her the combined Covid/Flu shot and that is why she was susceptible to Covid?

Odd that she got Covid this late in the arch of the virus. They are saying the people boosting are the ones who seem to be getting covid. They are trying to figure out if the booster is weakening the immune system. Too much Mrna.

My mom will gladly do what ever her Doctor advises, whether it is in her best interest or not. She often seems just like a 4 year old... so naïve.

I hope you are feeling better. Listen to the Mrs. next time. :love1:
 
Well I'm finally better. It took me about 4 or 5 days of just lying around the house having a pity party, but now I'm feeling much better. Mucinex and Tylenol seems to work better than DayQuil or Robitussin. My wife started feeling a little under the weather too, but she bounced back rather quickly and she is now gone to the movies tonight in Hiram.

Mucinex is the best
