Title: Sore arm following Swine Flu Jab
Post by: Rimms on November 15, 2009, 09:36:52 AM

I had my seasonal flu jab a couple of weeks ago with no after effects. Had the Swine Flu jab last Friday and my arm is swelled and really sore where I had the jab.

It seems that this is a common side effect, watch out.

Should settle down quite quickly.  A couple of folk at work have had this and it settled  ok.
Mine is still sore to touch and I had the jab last tuesday.

Explanation I was given  is it is oil based and  it is injected into muscle.
