Normal reaction: Hi, this is a common reaction to many vaccines, and is the result of a successful vaccination. It means you have a healthy immune system, which is responding to the vaccine by making you feel as if you have a mild viral infection. Rest and fluids (not alcohol) and a light diet are all that is usually needed. Unless the reaction is very painful avoid taking meds as this can reduce the effectiveness
