How long after the shot?

Customer replied311 days and 20 hours ago.

I got the shot at 11:00am today and noticed the increase in heart rate and blood pressure around 4:00pm. Heart rate 107 B/P 126/76

Expert:  DrPhilMD replied311 days and 20 hours ago.

yes, this could cause it.

The reaction to the shot could cause a slight increase in heart rate.

Stay hydrated and keep an eye on it.

If it stays up, call your doctor.

If you develop any other signs of an allergic reaction, call your doctor.

Otherwise, it should pass.

Please don’t click “bad” or “poor” service as this leaves negative feedback for me. If you aren’t 100% satisfied or have more questions, click “continue conversation” instead.
