We have a similar “bug” going around where you have a fever for a few days and just don’t feel well. If it turns into a cough, it may be the same bug since I live in Maryland. It is going through the schools like crazy. Just a thought

Got my flu shot at 5:00 PM by midnight I had a fever of 102F. Nobody I know has the flu and I do not ride public transportation or around children. There was no other vector. It was the shot.

Vaccine Side Effects (What to Expect)

Different side effects can be associated with the flu shot and LAIV.
The flu shot: The viruses in the flu shot are killed (inactivated), so you cannot get the flu from a flu shot. Some minor side effects that could occur are:

* Soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given
* Fever (low grade)
* Aches

Fortunately it has no effect upon your Southern heritage. ;-)
