Because I'm officially an old fart, I got a second COVID booster on Sunday afternoon. While I didn't suffer any side effects save for a sore injection site for most of yesterday, late in the afternoon the expected (based on previous shots) reaction hit, and by the time dinner rolled around, I was on the sofa bundled up in a blanket with fever and chills, slipping in and out of sleep.
At Ben's urging, I finally dragged myself upstairs and went to bed around 8. I threw an extra blanket on the bed and immediately passed out until his alarm went off at 6. I woke this morning with a horrific headache (I'm not sure if that was vax-related or simply that I'd not had any caffeine yesterday), but I'm happy to report all is pretty much back to normal now and I'm fully caffeinated again.
And my 5G reception still hasn't improved! Hmph!
I'm still going to continue to wear my mask in public and in the office, if for no other reason that I haven't had any of my usual winter/springtime respiratory maladies for the last two years and I'm happy to continue that trend.
DITTO!!!!!! I had second booster Saturday 3pm. Sunday awoke with painful injection site (typical) and lethargic, by 2pm took a 90 min nap as couldn't keep eyes open. Felt great UNTIL 9pm and the worst chills/full body shaking and felt like massive fever came on like a light switch. Lasted way into late night, I could NOT get warm even with heat turned to 80 and multiple sweaters, blankets, etc.
In the long run, a short blip of discomfort. Still wearing mask everywhere for the time being. Yes I want a time machine to go back to the 1990's which was my decade of a FUN LIFE!!!!
