flu shot side effects

I got the flu shot on Thurs (12/4). My arm was sore where I got the shot. But now, 3 days later, my whole left arm is sore & aching. Alao, im taking progesterone 200mg. Could these two things be related or just flu shot side effects? Anyone else experience this?

I'm not sure about your other medication but it is normal for your arm to ache after the flu shot. Try to keep it moving and rub the soreness out. The more you use it the better it will get.
