On last Friday, I had the tetorifice, diphtheria, meningococcal, and hepatitis B vaccinations administered. Just like you, I was very tired and slept a lot over the weekend. I also had a low grade fever on Saturday night and soreness in the area where the tetorifice shot was given. I felt better after two days. So, you are not alone!

Hi. I am a new nursing student. I had the flu shot, a tetorifice, diphtheria and will get a hepatitis vaccine tomorrow. The flu shot did not bother me. I got that several weeks ago. I got the tet. dip. on Friday. For the last few days I have been VERY TIRED. Tired like I have not been before. Yesterday I zonked out on my couch and slept for two hours in the middle of the afternoon (not like me). I was DEAD. Gone. I can't recall sleeping like that in a LONG time. I woke up today after about 9 hours of sleep and still feel like I am dragging around. I just feel all around sluggish. I looked up side effects of the tet. dip vaccine and did read "being tired" as one of the side effects. Gesh. Has anyone else experienced this before??? I am supposed to get my 1st Hep. vac. tomorrow and I am thinking about moving it until next week.
