My arm was good and sore both shots. The first one resulted in a surprise rash 9 days later. Nothing with the 2nd one except a bit of fatigue. So worth it! DH is finally on the list now. Florida has been awful for people under 65.

Happy Birthday, Volans!!!
I hope today goes better, Sheryl.
DH just took C to get his second shot. I can't express how relieved I'm going to feel.
My arm where I got my vaccine on Sunday was sort of sore yesterday, but today it seems much better.
I think my soreness only lasted a couple of days too, sj. Related, but not, did your shoulder pain you were taking Gabapentin for eventually resolve?
I keep checking my arm for a rash, because I got the Moderna. WARNING: pictures of rashes at both of the following links.

Here's an NEMJ article on the phenomenon. [link]
I'm the princess who slept on the pea. If you say "rash" to me, I pretty much develop one, ditto "nausea." And if you ask me if the milk smells or tastes bad, the answer will always be yes, so just dump it out, now.

Well, with all the Buffistas getting vaccinated, did you know that Krispy Kreme will provide free donuts for those vaccinated?
And, if your milk's gone sour, you can use it to make biscuits or bread ... just saying.

Why is the closest Krispy Kreme 60+ miles away?

The pain is not nearly as bad, but it still comes back if I forget to take the Gabapentin. It turned out to be a bulging disc in my neck, which was sending the pain down my shoulder. I've been in PT and putting off the orthopedic surgeon until I can at least have my mother come stay with us, and also secretly hoping that it will magically heal on it's own.

Has PT helped at all?

Heh.
Glad to hear it's better, sj. I hope it resolves with PT and you don't end up needing surgery.
Minor sore spot for me for a couple of days. No complaints at all.

Thanks, I know I keep hearing that it is not that big of a deal as a surgery, but when you have spina bifida and hear spinal surgery it is just an automatic freak out.

C's shot and the 15-minute wait period are over. They're on their way home. Yay!

I would freak too, and I don't have your reasons. Spinal surgery feels like a big deal.
