Speaking of vaccines

[Bernard]

I had my second Shingrix last week. Easy peasy, and I had the usual chuckle over the buildup of apprehension over it (the idea always seems worse than the bite.).

I got the vaccine around 1 pm and I was fine the rest the day. In fact, I was feeling smug about not having any side effects and sort of boasted about it on another site.

Well. I woke up a few hours after I'd gone to bed with chills just about to the point of physically shaking, weakness, aches, nausea. I'd spoken too soon. It hit me hard and I was under the weather for 2.5 days, although only the first night was really bad.

But it is done and I'm glad for it.

Thanks for the reminder @Bernard !

I have been meaning to get mine, but I'm not looking forward to being under the weather, so I keep putting it off. I really need to get it done with soon!

I got my series and Hep A/B. My insurance plan won't cover pneumonia. I can. I'm wondering about Hep C. Is vaccination possible? I'm wondering about the stomach disease called Dix-x where x is don't recall. Is there a vaccination for it?
