English question, please help, thank you.?

I am going to get an injection tomorrow from the doctor.

Is there a casual way of saying it, or is it the way people normally use in conversation?

Does "getting a shot" have the same meaning as "getting an injection"? Thanks

"I am going to the doctor tomorrow to get an injection." That is fairly formal in Britain. Many people might use "get a jab". I have a feeling that "get a shot" is American.

shot = USA English. Injection = UK English

Yes, it's a "shot."

Usually, people don't tell other people what the purpose of going to a doctor is.
It's none of their business, and most other people wouldn't want to know.
You'd maybe mention that you're going to the doctor's, if you had to explain your absence from school or work, but there would be no need to say why.

If you really want to tell them, you could say you're getting an injection, a shot or a jab.
But really - it's not usual to say it at all.
