Yesterday’s COVID shot hit me like a freight train. I’m pretty useless today. ☹️

@GottaLaff

I certainly can relate. I always interpret this reaction is that the vaccine is working.

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@thezenlady Me too

@AchillesTang@mastodon.social avatar

@GottaLaff Ugh, I always have that issue (though switching from Moderna to Pfizer helped some). But it’s miserable and I hope you’re feeling better very soon.

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@AchillesTang Thanks. Still feel like crap.

@GottaLaff A friend of mine recently had a Covid booster and ended up in hospital for two days, including a blood transfusion (she's fine now). First time she's ever had a bad reaction to a Covid shot (or any other vaccination). Um, she is 96 years old though and has a few comorbidities ... 😉

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@dshan Doesn't apply here, but sorry for her.

@GottaLaff

Agree with the others suggesting bed rest all day.

Since both COVID shot malaise and Mother's Day are perfect excuses to stay in bed all day and be served by family, it's tragic to combine them into one. Ask for a Mother's Day do-over next Sunday! 😉

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@LiberalEd If only my kids were here! They're in Canada.

I have slept, rested all day. Still sub par.

Thank you!

@GottaLaff Take it easy today and enjoy Mothers Day even though your kids aren’t with you today. Tomorrow is a big day! I won’t be home in the morning so I rely heavily on your reporting. ❤️💐🥀🌷

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@DebR Ugh, I know, huge day, I'll be exhausted at the end.

That's why I'm glad we got our shots yesterday. Hopefully I'll be better.

Thank you! Have a happy MD!

@ottaross@mastodon.social avatar

@GottaLaff My very first one was like that - but thankfully resolved within 24hrs. The 6th one was like I'd had no shot at all. Seems each one is like rolling the dice.

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@ottaross Yeah, I’ve had 1 or 2 like this out of 8.

ottaross,
@ottaross@mastodon.social avatar

@GottaLaff Oh, I forgot to offer unsolicited medical advice: Perhaps set up an IV of Ringer's lactate. I have no idea what it is, but it was popular in the re-runs of '70s emergency dramas. ;)

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@ottaross I'm so glad you didn't offer unsolicited med advice.

@GottaLaff Take it easy - a little rest day? ❤️‍🩹

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@wendinoakland Definitely, thanks

KatM,
@KatM@mastodon.social avatar

@GottaLaff Ugh. I was just thinking I need another booster but I have to lose a day to feeling crummy every time. Rest up love!💕

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@KatM Thanks sweetie. Will do!

Oof! Take it easy and Happy Mother’s Day! Fingers crossed you get some good house news today!

GottaLaff,

@allisonhooper Wouldn’t THAT be nice

lisamelton,
@lisamelton@mastodon.social avatar

@GottaLaff Ouch! 😬 I suppose you already know to rest and hydrate. Anyway, I hope you feel better soon! That shot is still worth it. 🫂💜

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@lisamelton Oh I know, yes, thanks.

But ugh.

Hugs!

Rest and recover - you have a lot going on.

@bradpatrick It’s our 8th. We always get them.

@GottaLaff Take care of yourself. Boosters are no fun & a lottery for reactions.

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@William3rd Thanks. It’s different every single time. This one is bad.

William3rd,
@William3rd@mastodon.social avatar

@GottaLaff Seems gender-specific. Spouse has been hit hardest.

Give Hammy a big hug, you will feel so much better! 🐶

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@BobDoodle I would but my arm is so unbelievably sore that I can’t.

old_hippie,
@old_hippie@veganism.social avatar

@GottaLaff Take a day to lay in bed. Posts and house moving activities can wait a day. Feel better!

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@old_hippie Oh don’t worry. I have no choice.

@GottaLaff ugh. Hope you recover quick! 🤒

@GottaLaff treat yourself well and soon you'll be fine and rarin' to go as ever!

@LeslieVS1965 I always treat myself well 😊

It’s temporary but this ones a doozy

That either means it's working or the 5G is turning you into a lizard person 😀

@me_valentijn That explains the tail.

penpencilbrush,
@penpencilbrush@mstdn.social avatar

@GottaLaff Happens to me too. Nurse said it's a good thing, a sign that my immune system is on the job and paying attention. Good excuse to take a duvet day if you can.

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@penpencilbrush Yeah, that’s what I always tell myself too.

I’ll take it easy

kristen_d,
@kristen_d@mastodon.social avatar

@GottaLaff Take a well-deserved break. Happy Mother’s Day!

@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@kristen_d Thank you!

justiceLICSW,
@justiceLICSW@toad.social avatar

@GottaLaff rest. Hydrate. And maybe celebrate quietly this day set aside to honor mother. Which I imagine you do really well. Take care Laffy.

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@justiceLICSW I’m the only mother we have now, and my kids are in Canada ☹️

But I will rest up. I have no choice. I’m miserable.

Thanks!
