On 9/13/16 nasal polyps were removed with no issues.
9/20/16 Flu shots were being given at work.
10/4/16 Follow up to original visit.
CT Scan scheduled with 12 day Dexamethasone to take prior to scan. 1st dose taken 10/5/16.
I began feeling tired on the 4th prior to taking any medication. I didn’t think too much of it until the weekend when I slept literally all day Saturday and majority of Sunday. It’s a week later and I’m still tired, a little achy and coughing.
I have not needed the Zyrtec as I am breathing fine with no obstruction, burning or itching as I have in the past.
I don’t think it’s the Dexamethasone as I’ve take that once before and actually felt great. And – I didn’t think this medication made you drowsy.
This is only the second time I’ve ever had a flu shot and my sinuses were so bad last year any time I felt ill I blamed it on sinuses and dealt with it.
My guess is it is just a reaction to the flu shot that needs to run its course. But I wanted to inquire in case there is something I am unaware of. I took Tylenol yesterday and that seemed to help with the chills and ache. I was planning to do that again today.
Other than a minor cough I don’t feel sick I just feel completely run down.
