I'm off work today because I'm ill. Last Wednesday I had a flu vaccination, but since the end of the week i've been getting flu symptoms (is this normal?) and I feel unwell. I ache all over and i felt nauseous when I got up this morning so I decided to stay at home and have a lemsip.

not a good idea especially if you have a medical condition that they suggest you need to get the flu jag with. i get it cos im diabetic, a mild dose of the flu is better than ending up in the hospital is it not? i felt a little groggy after getting it but ide rather that than be in the hospital!
I learnt the hard way-last year i thought "oh, ill be fine without" and got the flu. Was laid up with it for 3 weeks-I couldnt even walk to the bathroom, I had to crawl, thats how little enrgy i had. And i only have mild asthma.
