Getting my 2nd covid shot today at 11:45. 1st shot was no big deal. Sore arm for a few days.
I'm not too worried about it. Probably going to feel a little queezy but probably not as bad as a bad hangover. Yes at 74 I still remember hose 20s and 30s years. LOL
I think I'm still in pretty good shape for my age. I do an daily workout at the local hospital and putts around home. I'm only slowed up from arthritis.
Anyway stay tuned and I'll let you know how it goes.
Except for the rip part.LOL

Odd I never had a sore arm. Do for my second shot on April 5th. Don't forget to get a shingle shot also.

Just had my 2nd last Thursday, and "no big rat killin deal" . Worked hard enough on Friday to be very tired, but not sore at all. Good luck.

FYI the shingles vaccine being given now (shingrix vaccine not zostervax) is a 2 shot deal. The 2nd shot is likely to have you feeling run down a bit for a couple of days after.

I got my 2nd covid shot last Fri morning. By 9 PM I had a very sore shoulder. Felt like crap overnight with fatigue, some fever and headache. Still felt poorly early Sat morning but it was starting to pass. By noon I was OK and by evening back to normal. Like with the Shingrix, injection site soreness was a predictor of other symptoms in that the arm hurts before other things feel bad and when the arm starts feeling better the other stuff is going to fade soon. My wife had her 2nd this morning and they told her only about 5% have the reaction, making me one of the "lucky" ones I guess. Even so, it was only a 15 hour period so just a minor blip.

Might find this odd, but most older folks I know, my dad included (84), had no side effects at all. Heck he didn’t even have a sore arm and he’s had both shots.I know several other 70+ folks that had it with no side effects.

My wife claims if you have a good immune system the 2nd shot will effect you more than if you have a weak immune system. I don't know if there is any truth to that, I do know her mother is 93 and has a weak immune system and all she had from her second shot was a slightly sore arm. My wife is 64 and when she got her second shot she had a really bad headache for about a half a day or so, and just felt crappy overall for a day. I get my second shot in 2 1/2 weeks.

Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.

My mom and dad will both be 73 and experienced no pain, discomfort or illness from either shot.
