Had Quadruple Bypass. Received Flu Shot And Pneumonia Shot. What Does This Indicate?
My husband is 58 yrs old, had quadruple by-pass in Feb 2013, has been doing well. Today received flu shot and pneumonia shot (about 4 hours ago). About 10 minutes ago described feeling flush and "funny", but skin is cool and clammy (back sweating thru shirt). He is seated now with legs up and sipping water. What should I do?

Had Quadruple Bypass. Received Flu Shot And Pneumonia Shot. What Does This Indicate?
Hello, Welcome to Healthcaremagic. I had gone through your query and understand your concern. I suspect it may not be related to vaccine. It may be due to some other cause. Please check his blood pressure and pulse as well as blood sugar. If possible, shift him to Emergency room. Because he already had coronary heart disease. Flu and Pneumonia shot may cause fainting and headache. But it is better to rule out the life threatening conditions immediately. Hope this helps. Please reply for further queries. Wishing you good health.
