I might have overdone the vaccine thing

[malada]

I went to my local CVS because they were supposed to have one of my scripts ready... but they were still waiting for my doctor to get back to them. Argh.

So I asked if I could schedule a flu and COVID shot. They replied that they could do it now if I wanted. No sense putting it off! Flu in right arm, COVID in the left arm! Normally I'd do the shots on a Friday so I can have Saturday as a down day in case it hits me with body aches and fever. I took my chances.

Let's just say I did not have a good night with mild fever and chills. I barely got any sleep at all.

Today's one of my busy days at work so I'll see how much I can get done. I might leave work early if I feel really dragged out. However, being down for a day beats getting socked by the flu or worse, COVID.

Stay safe out there!

Sorry for the side-effects, and glad you got it done!

Got my boosters last month, one in each arm, and no reaction other than feeling like someone took a baseball bat to both arms. I find concerning as some of the past boosters did to me as this one did to you.
