Flu shot side effect?
I got my flu shot 2 days ago and its the first time I ever got one. My arm is still sore and this morning I woke up with a swollen lymph node under my arm pit on the side I got the shot. I googled it and it seems to be not totally unheard of. Anyone else get this?

Re: Flu shot side effect?
It is not exactly a side effect. Your lymph nodes get swollen due to white blood cells reproducing and producing antibodies to fight an infection. Your body is probably just responding to the flu shot like it should be.
