Covid-19 first shot

After close consultation with my doctor and finally finding some results of patience on tysabri. One study shows that the vaccine will be 77% effective. it seems to be a little bit different with each medicine but with the news of the mutations of the virus coming out. I have to do it. My first shot I have had no reaction from the moderna vaccine. I hope those who decide to take the shot have little reaction as I did.

Pleased it went well. I get mine on Thursday but I don’t know which one, Pfizer or Astra Zeneca. 😊

Hubby an I received our first doses on Thursday. No big side effects. He's tired, but played golf in the rain yesterday! My MS somewhat activated that night as I woke up many times with legs tingling and feeling like "Hot Flashes" also. (I'm way beyond menopause flashes) Slept great last night. No Arm soreness for either of us. felling fine yesterday and today. Pfizer vaccine. We go back on March 11 for second dose.

I had my first shot of the Pfizer vaccine a little over a week ago with no reaction at all! I am going back for my second shot on March 5. I am so glad that yours went well!

Try and drink more water. I have to drink over 200 oz a day but it works. It knocked my infections out but you have to pee a lot.

Hello, I loved Tysabri, the only reason I switched is because after 4 years I got the JC virus and my doctor said I had to. My body did have to adjust to the treatment, first 2 treatments.

I have to wait until Indiana lowers the age one more time. Then I finally can go get it. Hate shots but looking forward to this one.
