Friday vaccine - quick update

Evening all, just a quick update after my Pfizer vaccination on Friday.

Friday daytime: a bit tired with a sore arm.

Friday evening : tired, arm hurting more so I took some paracetamols and headed to bed. I felt kind of flu-ish in bed - a little hot and shivery, but nothing too bad, and my arm was too sore to lie on, but I had no problem dropping off to sleep.

Saturday: just a mild headache which passed

Today: just a sore arm which seems to be improving every day.

To be honest, the side effects were much lighter than my usual Friday/Saturday methotrexate hangover - I skipped my usual Friday methotrexate on RA nurse's orders, and it was actually lovely to not have to lie down all afternoon!

Anyhow, just thought I'd mention it was really no bother, hopefully you will have similar experience too.
