Feeling rough. Arm hurts and feel like I’ve been hit with a flu truck.
Couldn’t stay awake yesterday on the sofa and took myself to bed at 9:30 - stirred at about 1:30 but then zonked out again until about 7:45

Apparently I’m ticking all the likely main side effects But the expectation is that they will ease off today.
Taking ibuprofen and paracodeine to make things easier.

Recall the first flu jab I had and I was laid low for two days and then was absolutely fine. Never had even the slightest issue from any other jab so I’m hopeful that this too will pass.
Hope you feel better soon. I found my symptoms lifted suddenly, yesterday afternoon. I fell asleep after lunch, woke up and decided to sit and read for a bit, got up to make a cup of tea an hour later and realised I felt completely back to normal. Weird!
