I got My Flu Shot :(

 Well, I went and did it. I got my flu shot at work the other day and let them know it was under duress. I didn't want to get it but I also couldn't afford to be layed off for 2 weeks like I was last year

 
Anyway, about a half hour, (if that) after I got it the side of my face felt funny and my chest felt tight and my throat felt constricted. Very wierd....and as it was happening I remembered that the very same thing had happened last year when I got it.
 
I told the nurse and she said it sounded almost like an allergic reaction but not extreme. I have never been allergic to anything in my whole life. After two hours though, everything was back to normal and the only tell tale sign was the sore spot on my arm.
