Anybody feel nauseous/fluish after allergy shots?

[djkyosti]

I just had my first allergy shots yesterday. The shot itself is no big deal but I did not feel great afterwards. About an hour or two after the shots, I felt kind of nauseous and fluish and ended up going to bed early to sleep it off. Felt ok this morning though. Anybody else have this kind of experience? I don't think I can do it once a week for six months if this is what it will be like.

Hey there, I had that reaction many times.  How are your shots going now?

Hello,
If you are having nausea and dizziness after receiving allergy shots,then you should report it to your doctor the next time before getting the allergy shot.Sometimes these can be symptoms of serious adverse drug reaction or anaphylaxis.

Systemic reactions require immediate treatment. Most serious systemic reactions develop within 30 minutes of the allergy injections and this is why it is recommended you wait in the office for 30 minutes after your allergy injections.

I hope that helps. Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional queries. Kind regards.
