Game Changer II
The flu shot I got on September 22nd brought on an immune reaction. I got sore throats, swollen right tonsil, fevers, and tender lymph nodes in my neck. Many other CFS symptoms got much worse including memory and concentration, PEM, more frequent headaches and exhaustion. Before the flu shot I was functioning, but was really pushing with all I had. After the flu shot, I was knocked down. Within less than two weeks, I had to withdraw from all of my classes. Since then, the immune symptoms that were triggered by the flu shot have resolved, but my other symptoms have not improved much.
