covid vaccine

[pamgarner]

i received my 1st shot yesterday, the second will be march 18.we did it at a local hospital,i searched for an appointment for month. it was a drive through,we didn't have to get out of the car,,that was good. also you do have to stay 15 minutes afterwards so they gave us a timer to go park and when it went off we had to blow our horn and flash our lights and they came and got it.the only side effects were a sore arm and fatigue but how do you know that wasn''t ms?it was no problem

I got my Pfizer yesterday, no problem, said it would be 12 weeks before I get my second shot, only in Britain they say!

[pamgarner in reply to jimeka]

it is 21 days for my 2nd shot of pfizer,so what is the right answer?do they know

[jimeka in reply to pamgarner]

21 days is correct by the Pfizer team 👍

That's great you were able to get your first shot and are scheduled for the 2nd! I think the arm pain from the vaccine is a common one and should feel better in a couple of days (that is what I have heard). I'm still waiting to be able to get mine yet.

Received my 1st Pfizer vaccine yesterday. I was contacted via my portal last week, by the facility I see my neurologist, that I was now eligible bc of my high risk. Scheduling immediate and procedure was super simple. No sore arm yet except the vaccination site! Nurse did say however that I may not get the full effects of the vaccine or the side effects bc of my compromised immune system. She did recommend getting the vaccine in spite of this but to remain being careful. Interesting...

hadn't heard that yet,thank you

Had both Pfizer shots. Co-workers had gotten sick for 24 hours after the 2nd one. The man who gave me the shot said to drink lots of water. I did and I felt better than I did after the 1st one. I took Tylenol an hour after shot and Motrin 6 hrs later. But over hydrate !!!!

[pamgarner in reply to MoparMom]

thank you much!

[jodigirl750]

Will do after 2nd one! Thanks for the info!!!

I get my 1st on the 19th. Glad it's a Friday, just in case I have a reaction. Had a fever with my shingles shots so I'm playing it safe, just in case that happens again.

[Humbrd in reply to mrsmike9]

I get mine on the 3rd. I also had a reaction from the shingles shot, fever, 3 inch swollen red area on my arm, slept for day and half. Hope we both do well with this.

[mrsmike9 in reply to Humbrd]

I had a bad fever with teeth chattering, etc. Yes, let's hope we both do well. Either way I figure a night of not feeling well is better than catching Covid!

[Humbrd in reply to mrsmike9]

Most definitely!

[pamgarner in reply to mrsmike9]

yes you are correct better than covid

[pamgarner in reply to Humbrd]

i guess i have been lucky,nothing like that so far,hope for short side effects

[pamgarner in reply to mrsmike9]

shingles shot left a bad taste in your mouth huh?

[mrsmike9 in reply to pamgarner]

Well, just a caution to myself.

[Humbrd]

Glad you were able to get it and all went well.
