don't read this, I'm just whining in a public forum

OK, so I went into the Dr. yesterday for blood work and stuff and at the end of the visit, I remembered I need to get a flu shot. So I got one.

OK, first of all it FELT LIKE A DAMN TETANUS SHOT. My arm was really sore, but tolerable (OK, OK, I'm a big whiner...)

I was feeling marginally alright until 5 am or so. My shoulder was throbbing (swollen like half a baseball, hot, and achey) got up, popped a couple vitamin-I, grabbed an ice pack for my shoulder, and realized I was shakey. Cold, sweaty, achey all over, headache.

ARE FLU SHOTS SUPPOSED TO GIVE YOU THE DAMN FLU?????

Screw western medicine. Damn it all to hell!!
