Hello,
In order to answer properly, I need to ask you some questions
Did you have any side effects from the vaccine in the 24-48 hours following the injection?
Which vaccine did you receive?

Hello, I had the moderna, no side effects apart from pain in the arm 24-48h

Thank you for the clarification
Indeed, arm pain for 24-48 hours is typical with the Moderna vaccine. There may be symptoms 10 days later, such as nausea or diarrhea, but they never last more than a few days
Is the nausea present all day or only in the morning?

I've had a lot of trouble eating this week, often in the morning. However, I also started my citalopram medication for anxiety on Monday, so I'm wondering if that could also affect my appetite

In fact, I think we just put our finger on it. The effects you are experiencing are due to the reintroduction of the citalopram much more than the vaccine. The effects should last a few days and then subside

I have also had morning diarrhea for the past week. Every time I wake up in the morning

Diarrhea is often reported with citalopram. This effect may last for a few more days and then disappear
I hope I have answered your question. Good day to you!
