Good for you! Surprised you haven't got them before now, but better late than never. I think you got your really reallys backwards; there should be more for the 4 days. Hope you feel better soon.
I did mine at the same time AND was dumb enough to get them in the same arm. 48 hours of misery, followed by a pneumonia shot a week later. In the same arm, because I apparently don't learn.
Yeah... It's worth it. I did it in the fall and now I'm seeing an email from the pharmacy saying they are recommending a second dose within two months for those of us of a 'certain age' and health concerns... Meh! I'll probably do it. I've had the pneumonia several years ago. I have yet to do the RSV or Shingles. I've had a very minor case of shingles - silver dollar sized spot - so my Dr. wasn't sure if getting the vaccine was going to be helpful. Coni - I hope you will be feeling better shortly!
I had my first three covid injections as solos. I was sick for three days, barely able to move, after each. When I had the second booster (covid 4), I also got my flu shot, and had nothing more than soreness around the injection sites. If my body is a temple, it's a labyrinth, because it confuses the heck out of me.

ReplyDeleteI hope it passes quickly, Coni. Thinking of you!
