What Causes Shivering After Flu Vaccination?
I had my flu vaccination yesterday and woke up during the night screaming and shivering (as if I had a night terror) which ive never suffered from before. I had only been asleep about an hour. Im 25years old. Is this a possible side effect of the vaccination?

Thankyou for the Question
some vaccines can cause fever and chills ,muscle ache,or sore arm for a day post vaccination. Flu vaccine can also cause these symptoms.If you get other than these symptoms e.g seizures,itching in whole body,swelling of lips etc then you should promptly get checked by a doctor.
