Its because they inject you with a tiny amount of the flu virus strains going around (they predict anyway) that year, so you actually get a bit of the flu, so your bodies learn how to produce the right anti-bodies should you get attacked by that particular flu virus for real..... Fatigue is a common syndrome of viral infections, so it isn't surprising you're feeling tired!!
I can't get flu shots because I'm too young (and I presume healthy!).
Kind regards
