Speaking of shingles, I need to get the chicken pox vaccination. I never got chicken pox.

It's so weird how shots make your arm hurt. I get initially, but interesting that it can last for a week.

Got both done last Sat and in the same arm. Small fever after but not too bad , the surprise was the bruise and soreness of my arm. They told me to keep moving the arm and shoulder area. As of today Friday12/8 it's almost all gone but the soreness is still there but very light.

Yeah I tested twice to make sure lol. Both tests were positive.

Thanks G1.

Still feeling it today. My tastebuds are all but gone, had some hamburger helper for dinner and it tasted like unseasoned beef and pasta haha. Feeling a little better today but its been a lousy couple days, loss of appetite, feeling lethargic every day, got that heavy cotton mouth and chapped lips for whatever reason. Hopefully it will pass quick.

Losing your taste would be the worst part and would also be just weird. I hope those come back asap for you.

Had the covid and flu shot this past Friday, woke up Sat morning around 2am with a fever, splitting headache, body aches, etc. Spent most of Sat and Sun in bed. Brutal. Seriously thinking about skipping future covid shots. Never had a reaction to a flu shot so I know it wasn't that.

Started getting yearly flu shot around 10 years ago…never had a reaction. Not the slightest

My guess it was the Covid. I’ve know several people to have bad, sick in bed reactions.

Honestly I got the 2 Johnson and Johnson shots for Covid when it came out, I haven’t gotten it sent. Also, I had Covid once briefly for a weekend in January of 2021…it wasn’t bad at all. I haven’t gotten it since. But know multiple vax folks who had it 3-4 times

I know one I do every single time I come back to the house from out..Wash hands ( I get made fun of by wife and kids). Any time i used public bathroom, wash hands good. I’m religious about it and think that’s why I’ve gotten lucky

Re: Coronavirus (non political)
 

I got the Pfizer when it came out, I was going to get the booster right before school started and I got Covid before that happened and never had the covid shot again. I get the flu shot every year and had a mild reaction this year, went home and was really tired and a little cold.

My wife, who works in a school, has never tested positive for covid. It is pretty wild considering our kids have had it twice each, I've had it once and her occupation.

Re: Coronavirus (non political)
 

I’ve had Covid twice. In 2020, where I spent a week in hospital and summer of 23, a mild case that time. Don’t care to visit it again.

I had the same reaction to the second covid shot not #3 wasn't too bad and like I said I had the shingles shot at the same time, then a month later the second shingles shot that was fine, no reaction at all.
