Help! Need advice on something.

FTM, age 20, 13 weeks tomorrow.
So my nurse practitioner convinced me that I flu shot was the right thing to do. I never get sick, and I've never had the flu. It's been about a day and a half since I got the shot. The first day I just felt groggy and nasty. Now today I woke up with a full blown stuffy nose, sore throat, headache. I knew the flu shot was a hoax.. anyway is there something I can take for this cold or whatever it is? I'm so miserable!

After getting the shot, it's suppose to make you sick because they are injecting you with the flu. It's normal to get sick from it.

Sleep sleep and more sleep! Something happened to me after I got mine. The only thing you can take is tylonel...which doesn't do anything. My doctor okayed me to take benadryl to help me sleep. Other than that just keep your fluids up and sleep as much as possible.
