Your lab rat reporting in:
My lymph nodes are starting to get inflamed on the side I received the shot. The muscle soreness is gone, but I'm generally not feeling all that great. I can't really describe it... general malaise and mild nausea feeling. I wasn't able to eat as much today because of it. I'm also getting occasional chills and somewhat lightheaded at times.
I can see why they were worried about people not following through with the second dose. Anyways, I just wanted to let everyone know what it has been like.
I want to thank you for being courageous about taking the vaccine. I'm immuno-compromised (Crohn's Disease), and I'm pretty sure my GI has told me I can't get the vaccine as a result of my IV medication. What a weird and screwed time to say "thank the stars I don't have to get this particular vaccine for medical reasons", as odd as that feels to even type this. Current irregularities (to say the least) of those getting the vaccine aside, of course.
Godspeed to you and your family and I hope and pray you come out of this inoculation unharmed.
