We all reacted differently. I felt worse the first time. The second time I felt hardly any side effects yet two colleagues had to go home early the following day. I think there are so many variables. Agree to that. Just hope each situation...brings the needed results. Maybe some day we can get back to some degree of normal lives again. 😌 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The arm really hurts and is a bit inflamed. In normal times I was swimming Sunday-Thursday, and was timing the shot for Thursday afternoon, to give my arm a rest at least Friday and Saturday.... I was pleasantly surprised that both Pfizer shots were much much easier on my arm 😁 I rarely have a reaction to annual flu shot, Eric had bad reaction one year but most times he is okay other than sore arm. I'm hoping this will be the same for our covid jab. Patiently waiting for our invite to get the first shot. We were notified by our local dept of health to expect to receive our invite any day. Which should work out perfect since Eric was told to wait 30 days from the time he had covid. March 5th will be 30 days. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No McDonalds today?😉 Pauline got a McDonald's veggie wrap and I got a barbecue chicken wrap plus coffee and we ate them here. It has been very busy so we are still sitting in the car but we are going now for a walk. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opossums can eat up to 5000 ticks in a season. They do not carry rabies. We have successfully treated and released several this year. Finally, someone to back up what I've been saying. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are going to have a walk now along the beach promenade. I've noticed that beauty spot car parks are packed at weekends. Nothing else to do in lockdown but go for a walk. Luckily there are lovely woods within walking distance. The weather today is gourgous, warm enough to sit in the garden 😊. Hubby is busy putting my new greenhouse together. Envy you living near the sea, it's my happy place. Not long now before lockdown lifts and we can go back down to the Dorset coast for our walks. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had more side effects with that one. My sister was very sick for 3 days after both Pfizer shots. We both got our second Pfizer shots on Wednesday, 24 Feb. with no side effects. Kathy's arm was a little sore but my wasn't. Maybe the nurse that gave me my shot was more gentle with me. 🙂 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though it is interesting to hear of other's reactions, don't think it will be the same for you. People discussing their reactions is a frequent topic of conversation around the hospital. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
