Tamoxifen and flu jab

Public Archive

Hi all, I had my flu jab 3 weeks ago and haven’t felt right since. The first few days I put down to the jab itself (mainly headache) and I’ve since felt dizzy on and off but the main problem is that my hot flushes and tiredness have got significantly worse. I’ve been on Tamox for nearly 5 years and my SEs had stabilised, which is why I’m suspicious. I’m wondering if this is just co-incidence or has anyone else had the same problem?

 

Thanks, Bella x
