I was in the grocery store and over the PA system they announced vaccine at the pharmacy. Someone canceled and I got my first Moderna shot.
I was able to make an appt for my wife for the following day as well. So we both got our first shot and both feel bad. I have never had any issues with vaccines. I was freezing all night with headache. The exact symptoms we had when we actually had the virus.
My symptoms started 24 hours after the shot. My wife started with symptoms in 12 hours.
I understand the second dose can make you feel even worse?
As I understand it, people who have had C-19 often get reactions to the first shot the way other people have reactions to the second shot.
