Asthma from tetnus vaccine?

Posted , 3 users are following.

I had tetnus vaccine last month. Started having breathing problem and high blood pressure out of nowhere from 2 weeks of taking it even when I exercise regularly.

I have had breathing issue since 10 years but never took medicines I managed it myself lucky enough to Neve have asthma attack.

I just could corelated my 10 years back problem and now is, that time too I had tetnus vaccine after that I started to have breathing problem. This time it's worst. I feel jerks when I am in sleep. I have to think my lungs are expanding while sleeping and it kind of sometimes work. Then I sleep. But this thoroughly disturbing my life. What should I do.?

    How buddy,

    I would definitely go to the doctors when you can, let them be the ones to worry. Sorry I can't give any further medical advice

    Take it easy.

    Best wishes

      Yeah consulted the doctor. She said anything with vaccine has to do will show side effects immediately which I don't agree much. So as expected I am given anti histamine, a vertigo tab and said if it doesn't help and dizzyness continues will have to do brain MRI as BP was normal. So seems some minor asthma attack to me.

    In my opinion it's not from Tetanus vaccine.  I have had loads of Tetanus vaccines through my life since I used to camp a lot and I have asthma. I never heard it mentioned as a side effect, or any side effect actually.
