Senseless when i take injection - #29212
I am really confused and kinda worried about something that's been going on with me. Whenever I get a vaccination or any injection, I feel really senseless afterward, like my body just goes numb. This started a few months ago after I got the flu shot — I thought it was just a one-time thing, but it keeps happening! Just last week, I had to get an allergy shot and the same thing happened. I remember sitting there in the doctor's office and like, everything felt fuzzy, like my head was in a cloud. I could hear people talking but it was like I was outside of my own body, you know? Super weird! I asked my doc about it and he said it might be some sort of anxiety response or maybe a bad reaction, but that doesn’t really make sense to me. How can I feel senseless like that just from an injection? I've been trying to note down how I feel leading up to the injections and even after, but it’s a bit chaotic. Sometimes I can't even move my arms properly for a bit. Is this a common thing? I really want to know if anyone has experienced feeling senseless when they take an injection and if I should be worried. Should I stop getting them or get a scond opinion or what? Ugh, I just want to feel normal again after I get a shot!
