I slept for 12 hours last night - 24 hours after my shot - now feeling much better. My first shot made me crash and sleep a lot as well.

Well, my second Moderna was no worse than the first, probably a bit lighter side effects. Just a sore arm, less sore than previously, started later, wore off faster. No real extra tiredness like many have mentioned - DH and I went on a long hike this morning since the weather has rebounded from the 5" of snow midweek.

Feel less tired now but still ache and I get hot off and on. Looks like we didn’t get away as unscathed as I thought this morning. We decided to go out to lunch, and about the same time both of us got the chills and the sleepies this afternoon. I’m sacked out under a quilt in the recliner with a cat, TD is on the sofa. Both of us would like a cup of tea, but neither want to get up.

Used 5G all day and still not a Zombie. So disappointed.
Then I realized I work in science so I'm already part of the massive liberal agenda I don't need to be micro chipped. 😘

When I got my second shot, I didn’t feel bad at all. My arm didn't even hurt. I did have a red spot where the injection was that was hard and warm to the touch. It started about the size of a silver dollar and by the end of the day it took up my whole arm from the shoulder to the elbow. It went away after a few days and was just incredibly itchy for a few days after. It's fine now. Did anyone else have that happen?

well - after making some progress in the conversation, my mother still refuses to be vaccinated. I'm not sure if my brother and SIL went all antivax of what is going on. If my brother suggested to get vacinated and offered to take her, I'm sure she'd do it in a minute. I had tried to enlist their help convincing my mother months ago, and rather they encouraged her not to because of the shellfish allergy.
we will start our second round of vaccines this week and next.
I'm not sure what to do about my mother. I know she is very depressed being so isolated but we will still have to limit visits and wear masks around her and she is going to have to live with that piece of her decision.

I do think that KY nursing home story though is pretty pro vaccine based on results, especially if all residents were exposed. If that's true, the unvaccinated had a 25% chance of dying, but the vaccinated residents had a 24% chance of getting that round of Covid. Of those vaccinated residents who did catch it, less than 6% died. Maybe that story. But I have first hand knowledge of Kentucky nursing homes. They are not trustworthy. And they don't give a shit about the patients. I visited my aunt in one, and she was bedridden. 6 months later my aunt is living in her own. Kentucky nursing homes are horrible.

I got the second shot on Wednesday, and last night my husband felt like crap. I knew the government was messing with us via these "vaccines" - now I have proof!!

Well, yesterday TD slept on the sofa from about 2 pm until I went to bed at 11. He came into bed soon after, and has now slept another 11 hours. At least he was no longer chilled.
It was funny.....yesterday morning both of us felt fine. I said I might feel more comfortable after getting the second shot knowing my immune system kicked if if I felt something.
Is this a case of ask and you shall receive?

You could practically set your clock to it.

If I hadn't been warned on here my lymph nodes would swell I'd be freaking out right now. The most painful one is under my left arm where I had them inject me.

Ironically, I got a letter yesterday from my friendly local imaging center letting me know I’m due for a mammogram. I think that will get punted into June.

My son (23) just made his appointment today for a shot on Wednesday. It’s great that he’s going, but kind of disappointing that he was able to get in so quick (interest in vaccinations seems to be waning). We’re not even at 50% yet.

I believe that chiver78 also has a shellfish allergy and because of that she was getting the Moderna vaccine. Try to get your mom to her doctor to convince her to get immunized. Tell doctor if needed that she is hesitant because of her allergy. Good luck changing mom's mind

Good luck changing mom's mind thanks but I've been fighting this fight for months, I hope when I say she isn't doing it because of the shellfish allergy that people here don't think that I share that concern or think it warrants not getting the vaccine? My son also has a shellfish allergy. He got Pfizer and no issue. Second shot tomorrow. Didn't know when we made the appt that moderna might have been a better choice because of that. I've been asking her constantly to talk to her doctor. She is on several meds so needs to go through the doctor to get the Rx renewed about every three months. I'm assuming the issue has been raised. She's been hospitalized with pneumonia previously. I thought I had made some inroads this time but then she turned back into the brick wall. Making me think she may have discussed with the others.she is an adult, and needs to make her own decisions. I've given her all the information on why she should get it, probabilities of reaction to shot and death by covid. Offered to register her, make the appt and take her. Her answer is no.

My original appointment was only going to be 10 days post 2nd dose.

Unless it's for a second shot where people received an appointment when they got the first shot, it's all walk-in clinics here. The days are not busy at the walk-in clinic.

I rescheduled my mammogram after reading in an article that said to get the screening done before the first dose or a month after the 2nd. My original appointment was only going to be 10 days post 2nd dose. I think it was something mich posted the weekend after my first dose that led me to postpone my mammo that was supposed to be the following Tuesday. They were very agreeable about postponing it. And the "right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing" process in my state continues. One pf the places I'd signed up was Missouri Vaccine Navigator, which I soon discovered does NOT tell your of every opportunity in my area. Silly of me to assume that. I just got an e-mail from them asking about my vaccine status since they had no record of my being vaccinated (I was and it was in MO). SO, I clicked on tehri link hoping I could input the details of my vaccines (subject, of course, to verification) and all it accomplished is that I was able to opt out of future e-mails. Oh, well- I tried. I hope the record is somewhere- I don't remember ever providing my SSN or Medicare number to the medical center where I was vaccinated.

My husband came down with covid symptoms on the day that he was scheduled for his first vaccine. It wasn't unexpected because there was a large outbreak at his work. Now that he has recovered I have rescheduled his vaccine appt for next Saturday. The vaccine worked for me, because I didn't catch it from him in spite of continued close contact.
Every time I have checked the vaccine site, there are dozens of appts available every day. My county has only had around 20% of the population with partial or full vaccinations, so it's clearly a lack of desire rather than a lack of availability.

We just lost a first grader to Covid in our state. I hope they'll release more information as it becomes available, because now I'm wondering, if they'll tell us, which version of the variant this child may have been exposed to.

I only ask because people pointed out on this thread that those that had COVID should wait 90 days before getting the vaccine. My FIL had COVID at Christmas and just had his second shot on Friday. He had reactions to both - fever/chills for half a day about 24 hours after the injection.

Last I've heard is that one can get vaccinated as soon as the symptoms subside unless they were treated with convalescent plasma/antibodies which is when it's best to wait about 90 days. He might want to talk to his doctor to confirm when is the best time for him to get vaccinated

After I posted this, I saw something that people are claiming that women who have their periods should not EVEN BE AROUND anyone who had their vaccine because the mere presence of a vaccinated person will "mess up their cycle." WTAF??

Got my 2nd Pfizer shot on Saturday at noon - was feverish by midnight - woke up around 3am with chills and 101 degree fever and achy joints- the fever dropped to 99 and had that and achiness all day Sunday. I was taking tylenol during this to combat the arm pain and fever/ache As soon as the tylenol wore off the fever would rise and the arm pain/aches would start up again. Woke up this morning no more fever, just feeling very very very tired with a little bit of a headache.
Glad it's over. The damn shots better protect me from Covid19... The first shot gave me a bad headache (for a day) and fatigue and achiness for 3 days. Both shots were pretty sucky.
