Covid Jab!
Apr. 12th, 2021 04:53 pmFirst Covid stabbin' done! I got the Pfizer version.
(Almost everyone else I know got the Moderna one.)

That was about 4.5 hours ago.
So far I'm just pretty tired, and my joints ache. My wrists and hands are the worst, though it's spread to my elbows, back, knees, and ankles, too. Though the pain also comes and goes, which is a little weird. It'll be bad for a few minutes and then fade, then come back. (Though really, not excruciating or anything. Just achey and uncomfortable.) The injection site itself is a little sore, on-par with an ordinary bruise, though that may worsen, it sounds like.
Taylor has so far had the worst reaction to the first shot of anyone in my immediate circle, but even that was mostly over by the following morning, and a sore arm for a few days. But they got the Moderna one, and I don't know how the side effects vary between the two.
My second shot is set for May 3rd, so I have to request the 3rd (and maybe the 4th) off. But I'm so very glad to be on my way to protected.
