Think I may have had a reaction to TDaP shot?

Question:

The arm they gave me the shot in really hurts, I got it yesterday. I also have a headache, my neck aches, and I just feel really slow/ wierd. Is this something I should ask the doc about, or will these problems go away on their own?

Answers:
-make an appointment to see the doctor,.

Are you sure its the shot? I think you should ask a docter just in case.Maybe they can give you some medicane to help it.Have you had this shot before? If so did these symptoms occcur?

Maybe its a first time thing...you never can really tell.

The soreness in your arm is from the injection. It may last a few days. The other symptoms may or may not be due to the immunization. They should resolve on their own in the next 24 hours. If you are really worried, or your discomfort is worsening, contact your doctor.

The DTaP vaccine has a very good safety record.

Just wait it out. I had really bad side effects (rash all down the arm, swollen, dizzy) and went to the hospital and my doctor, chances are you are just having an allergic reaction, took a few days for mine to clear.

yeah i got
mine thursday
and it still hurt,too !
i dont know how long the
pain is suppose to last, though .
