Rough last night after Pfizer #2:

slight fever and dryness of the throat, then dizzy and an itchy rash. a little later, muscle spasms and drooling, followed by uncontrollable flatulence.

Seems better this morning tho, just a really sore arm around the injection site.

Drooling?

damn, i didn't list that as a symptom, just thought it was my poor eating habits.
def worse than usual for me. maybe a little difficulty evacuating for another 24 hours.
my sleep cycle is off now - but being up all night will do that.

glad it passed

6 people out of 7 million? How could that not just be the background rate of blood clots?

maybe they got DVT while waiting in line? I see all the commercials now, it must be a problem.

It most likely is. Just going to slow down our vaccination effort. Was hoping Astrazeneca would be approved by now but there are similar "issues" so don't see that happening soon either

My former supervisor, a rabid anti-vaxxer, 43 y/o, reasonably healthy, just ended up in the hospital with the rona. Whole family got it, wife, 3 kids. In January, he said to me "it doesn't make sense to be a guinea pig and get the vaccine when the effects of the virus for healthy people are so mild..." Insert Kermit the Frog drinking tea meme right here...

wondering if the rabies make it worse...
 
Got the J&J on friday. No blood clots, didn't die.

Was originally slated to get one of the other 2-shot variants but the night before they blasted out an email that said, "sorry, we're plum out of Phizderna, but we were able to quickly procure some J&J and so you can still come for that if you so choose." Wonder if there was knowledge of this pending J&J hold and they wanted to dump stocks?

Anywho, friday night was rough, chills, aches, no sleep. Saturday wasn't much better but could still do yard work. Slept like a corpse sat night and was fine sunday.

Interesting read. FYI our son had ITP as a baby, no idea how soon after immunization(s). Fully recovered and no issues since. And he got the J&J vaccine a month ago.
