Pfizer Covid booster [View all]

I just got my booster and flu shot yesterday. Last night I had a headache. Today I have body aches plus I’m a little nauseous. I’m pretty sure it is from the Covid shot. I felt this way with the original Covid shots (not boosters). Just wondering if anyone else here had issues with this booster.
