My arm pain went away quickly, I wrenched on a car all day today.I got both shots in March. (Pfizer) After the first shot I was a little tired and my arm hurt like hell. Think tetanus shot pain. The second shot didn’t phase me at all, no pain, no fatigue, nothing.
My wife got her shots a week apart from mine. She slept for 24 hours after the first shot. The second shot was a different animal for her. Within a couple hours of getting the shot she felt like she hit a brick wall. Neither of us slept much for the next couple of nights because she was up all night tossing, turning and in complete agony. At one point she told me her hair hurt. She’s also developed some issues that are characteristic of long COVID.
Fast forward to today. Like C2 I got a booster in one arm and a flu shot in the other. Both shots were painless and I felt fine. I’m a little more than 12 hours in and I feel fine with one exception, my COVID shot arm hurts like a motherf*cker. I cannot sleep right now because the pain is so intense. This sh*t is shingles level pain and puts a tetanus shot to shame.
My wife won’t be getting a booster.
Next report will be my 83-year MIL, who got the Moderna shots while in chemo, but now she's going thru hardcore radiation so we'll see what her doctors say.
