Flu vaccine reactions

Hello!

I have found out that I have been poisoning myself for 5 years. I just found out that I’m allergic to the flu vaccine. In the past every time I took the shot I ended up in bed with pain. Since the test my joints are hurting and I feel chills.

I was hoping that someone would have a idea how to clean my body from this ?

And I was wondering if other people have the same symptoms as me ?

All I read about the Ful immunization side effects doesn’t describe

Hi @caroline - I wonder how many people are in exactly the same situation, so thanks for the question. As you may be aware, we do have the Post Vaccine Protocol, perhaps some of the first line therapies would be worth researching I-RECOVER: Post-Vaccine Treatment - Independent Medical Alliance, and you can see a previous discussion on a similar topic here https://imahealth.org/forums/groups/public-forum/forum/discussion/flu-vaccine-reaction/

Do come back and let us know what you try and how it has helped.

Thank you.

I’m not an expert on this but I asked copilot the following question:

“What are the constituents of a flu vaccine? How many different manufacturers and variations exist. Of those constituents, which might a person have a bad reaction to?”

The answer from copilot:

"Great questions — flu vaccines are more complex than they seem at first glance.

Constituents of a Flu Vaccine

Most flu vaccines contain:

  • Inactivated or weakened influenza viruses: These are the main components that train your immune system.

  • Stabilizers: Like sucrose or sorbitol, to maintain vaccine potency.

  • Preservatives: Such as thimerosal (in multi-dose vials) to prevent contamination.

  • Adjuvants: Like aluminum salts, used in some vaccines to boost immune response.

  • Residuals from the production process: These might include egg proteins (from egg-based vaccines), antibiotics (like neomycin), or formaldehyde (used to inactivate viruses).

Manufacturers and Variations

For the 2025–2026 U.S. flu season, several manufacturers are producing trivalent vaccines, which protect against three flu strains:

  • Two influenza A strains (H1N1 and H3N2)

  • One influenza B strain (B/Victoria lineage)

There are egg-based, cell-based, and recombinant versions, each with slightly different virus strains depending on the production method. The FDA has coordinated with manufacturers to ensure a diverse and adequate supply.

Potential Allergens or Reactions

Some people may have adverse reactions to:

  • Egg proteins: Found in egg-based vaccines — a concern for those with severe egg allergies.

  • Thimerosal: Though rare, some individuals may be sensitive to this mercury-based preservative.

  • Gelatin or antibiotics: Used as stabilizers or to prevent bacterial contamination.

  • Latex: Occasionally found in vial stoppers or syringe plungers.

Most reactions are mild (like soreness or low-grade fever), but severe allergic responses are extremely rare. If someone has a history of allergies, it’s best to consult a healthcare provider before vaccination.

Would you like help finding the best flu vaccine option for your needs or preferences? I can also help you compare egg-free or preservative-free versions."

I think an interesting experiment they should run for each vaccine is to create a vaccine without the weakened influenza virus but include all the other junk. Then do a test on people’s blood to look for immune response, without injecting them with it. Then for people with a reaction put that in the medical records at the pharmacy or wherever you typically get a vaccine from. Since each manufacturer might do different alchemy to arrive at a “vaccine”, and since each person might have a different reaction to that alchemy, you need to prove this for each person and each manufactured vaccine. Once you have that data, you can know to some degree if a vaccine is appropriate for a given individual. Though this does not necessarily mean it is safe because people can develop allergies with repeated exposure. A latex allergy is just one such example.

Unfortunately tests like food sensitivity are not covered by insurance, but they probably should be. When you have a food product such as egg being put into a vaccine, it would be very nice to know if that is a sensitivity or an allergy for a person. I’ve attached an example of my own blood work which tests IgG, IgE and IgA. If a person shows IgE (defined as food allergy) to egg… that person should clearly not be given the vaccine containing egg.

:+1: makes perfect sense.

Thank you for all your support. All your reflections are interesting. I have ask myself some of these questions. I’m also wondering what effect this allergy has had on my immune system. Have i been allergic to something in vaccines and poisoning myself for years just to be able to work. I’m due for my tetanus vaccine next year…

HI Caroline - on this discussion, https://imahealth.org/forums/groups/public-forum/forum/discussion/covid-exemption/?no_frame=1#post-3166 there’s this link from Karen Stuart Do the Tetanus Vaccines Used in the U.S. Stop Infection and Transmission of the Tetanus Bacterium?, maybe worth a read.
