Answers:
it could be the influenza (flu) but not the stomach one those are the symptoms and they're "in season" right now because the hospital closet to me is giving flu shots already

here the hopsital gave me a list of the symptoms they are:

fever, cough, sore throat, chills, fatigue, headaches, and muscle aches.

so everything except your stuffy and runny nose is a symptom :) hope you feel better i was sick this weekend alsoHealth Question & Answer

You had a flu shot so you are probably getting the right effect from it which is that your flu symptoms will be less or none.
