Finally got off my ass and booked both doses of my vaccine - finally got the full come on from the NHS last week following the change to the qualifying age from over 45's to over 42 - me making the cut by just a couple of weeks, as while I am not yet 42, I will be by the time my second dose is administered in July. I got my first dose yesterday and after getting home and having an unremarkable but still decent afternoon, enjoying a smoke and a film, I took a dose of C - pam and dozed off..
I woke about 11pm feeling like death warmed up. I've had similar reactions from flu - jabs in the past but nothing this fucked up. I was dithering like I'd had a dirty ('cotton') shot like blast of acute sepsis which saw me have a fever - like night with the symptoms persisting into this morning, now including a sore arm. I am feeling a little better for the first time and understand the rationale for reactions like this but I still feel like my immune system is well sensitive compared to my folks who had no side effects at all, although they had a different product than me (they had the Pfizer, me the Astrazennica).
