You may have Bell's Palsy. Or it could be a side affect of the flu shot. HOpefully it will wear off. I would get to the ER immediately!!
My mother had a mini stroke and we didn't know it until I took her to the ER for a cough, she had bronchitus. They detected the mini stroke when I pointed out to her that she could hardly write her name. THey kept her in overnight for observation. Fortunately she was released with no real damage.

My father may have last month had a TIA (mini stroke). He was at work and had a moment where he just suddenly was totally confused and couldn't figure out what the heck he was doing. It cleared up, but my mom went and got him and took him to the hospital to be checked out (after he called her totally freaked out). Luckily he's ok and all tests came back fine and feels fine, but he did have symptoms of not being able to remember much from that morning and numbness he still has around his left eye.
Sorry I can't be of much help, but that is what my father experienced a few weeks ago if it helps at all.
If you are having strong headaches, I know migraines can supposedly have a number of symptoms. I would have it checked out, especially to be sure it's not something worse.

Dear Heathclif,
You do not need info first -you need to go to the doctor and be informed on the basis what they see in you. Puerperal mothers can have all kinds of things that need to be checked if the symptoms are the ones you describe. Hard to imagine the flu shot as anything to do with it but delivery, yes.
So, go to the doctor, and sooner rather than later.
Recommends strongly

My father-in-law has had many strokes including mini strokes. You can never be too careful with this. I would strongly suggest that you go to your G.P. and get your symptoms checked out. I don't want to alarm you but it is better to be safe than sorry. Think of your little one. These symptoms could very well be the after effects of childbirth but I would'nt be playing around on the internet for answers.

You can check at your local ER, to get the right info. Don't take any chances on just asking us. Dr.'s have the right tools like
EKG, CAT SCAN, The know it all and the proper medication.
If you have a Primary Care Physician then call to see if you can
get in touch with a Dr. on call or a nurse on call. So get off the
computer and let your finger do the walking.

A vegan weight relief plan can top off cellular boost and opposite consequences of a few circumstances. i might want to assert supply it a attempt. also watch a documentary referred to as forks over knives. that's not professional vegan. that's in hardship-free words a documentary that docs made to exhibit the well being advantages of vegetables and different damaging consequences a number of animal products have on the body. similar with processed ingredients.
