I wasn’t sure how the Coronavirus vaccine would affect me, so I left my weekend wide-open. Good thing, too, because within a few hours of getting the shot yesterday my arm hurt so bad that I could barely use it. I didn’t do much but watch TV after that point. It was the only thing I could do comfortably.
Today I feel a little better. My arm still hurts, but not so bad that I have to swear every time I move. I might be a little more tired and achy than normal, but it’s hard to say, because I’m always a little tired and achy. So I think I’ll go about my usual routine for the rest of the day and try to get some things done.
Rudi also got the type of vaccine you did and had a similar reaction. It was enough to keep him off the bike, so I knew it wasn’t just whiny man syndrome. The common side effect for those of us who’ve gotten the other one seems to be bone-tired fatigue, so I don’t know there was a win (except in not getting COVID, which clearly is).
