My doctor thinks my odd cycle can be explained by miscarriage. I didn't know I was pregnant. I missed a period in November, had a flu shot early December. About 5 days after the flu shot I became very weak and felt tingly in my extremities and face, this came on suddenly. I slept for about 3 days. My period came on very heavy around the second day of this extreme fatigue. My gynecologist says this very heavy period was likely miscarriage. I have been spotting for a month since. I didn't even think to ask the Dr. about flu shot when I was at his office. I just thought of it tonight.
Has anyone else experienced something like this? I felt no pain during the supposed miscarriage, only this weak, tingly and fatigued sensation. Can a miscarriage feel like this?

I'm not sure if it could cause a miscarriage. I personally don't believe in vaccines, here's a list of ingredients that they put in the vaccine, I don't see how that is beneficial to a fetus
FLU Vaccine Ingredients depend upon the manufacturer
FluVirin, FluShield, FluZone, FluMist, Etc, Etc.
All are made using egg or chicken protein
Influenza viruses (most! are inactivated)
Neomycin, polymyxin, gentamycin - antibiotics
Thimerosal [mercury] - a harmful preservative
Betapropiolactone - a disinfectant
Nonoxynol - used to kill or stop growth of STDs
Octoxinol 9 - a vaginal spermicide
Formaldehyde - embalming fluid used to kill viruses

i'm sorry on your loss. in actual actuality, there's no thank you to appreciate. There are communities that have faith that the CDC has falsified tips with regard to the secure practices of the flu shot for pregnant women human beings. i understand that for the period of my opinion I insisted on waiting previous the 1st trimester because of the fact an excellent sort of miscarriages ensue interior the 1st trimester. Get the pathology, and checklist it to VAERS as in all threat related. Supposedly 3,875 miscarriages happened after the flu shot however the type of miscarriages each year are 500,000 interior the U. S., so as that's relatively a drop interior the bucket and there is no thank you to appreciate if it relatively is the variety that ought to have been around with or devoid of the flu photos, you realize? upload: word, i opt to show out that I waited till the 1st trimester replaced into over because of the fact an excellent sort of miscarriages ensue then, no longer because of the fact i assumed the shot might reason a miscarriage. greater that if I did miscarry i did no longer opt to be sitting and questioning if that could have prompted something, y'understand? I have been given the flu shot and each thing replaced into positive. And whilst the two one human beings have been uncovered to the flu at 3 months after start, neither human beings have been given ill. To me, it replaced into properly well worth the possibility, fantastically with the type of mothers who have been loss of life from the flu.

I don't know about what a miscarriage feels like. I do, however, know that the flu shot can not cause a miscarriage. I am 20 weeks and my doctor just gave me one because being pregnant puts you at higher risk for getting the flu. Good luck

The flu shot is dangerous to pregnant women especially in the early months of pregnancy.

I had a flu shot in my first trimester as the doctor said it was safe and nothing happened. Flu can cause miscarriage more likely than a flue shot.

nope...flu shots can even help pregnancies....that's y doctors will usually require that wen ur pregnant so ofcourse, they wont do sumthing that will harm u or the baby...the fatigue and etc are probably caused by a possible miscarriage alone so better check w/ ur ob and do some tests to confirm and to clean ur womb
