What Causes Stiffness In The Neck After Receiving A Flu Shot?
I had the flu shot and one week later I has a severe stiff neck, couldn t even lift my own head. When to doctor in severe pain, low grade fever, blood pressure high and for the first time in my life I had a slight heart murmur. Which just a week before this the murmur was not there.
