When I got my first Pfizer shot, I literally felt no side effects whatsoever, nothing, not even a sore arm. With the 2nd 3 weeks later, later that night I noticed my arm was a bit sore, sort of like I’d been lifting heavy weights. The next day around lunch time I felt a bit chilled and a bit achy but kept working until the end of the day.
When I got home, I felt a bit worse, mostly body aches and what I presumed was a fever and feeling quite tired.
As the night went on, the body aches got worse and kept me from sleeping even as I felt extremely tired. The other thing was having to go pee like every 20 minutes but that is what always happens when I get a bad cold or the flu, I think from the fever and also drinking a lot of iced ginger ale, my go to when feeling sick.
Around midnight I took a shot of Nyquil for the fever and the aches and also ate a half pint of strawberry ice cream, and soon fell asleep, slept through the night and felt perfectly fine the next day. I credit both the ice cream and the NyQuil.
In contrast to the people I know who got COVID and missed several days of work if not weeks, with continuing breathing problems, nerve pain, loss of smell and taste and severe fatigue that lasted weeks if not months, my few hours of a bit of discomfort and no lost time from work that subsided with a shot of Nyquil and some strawberry ice cream was nothing.
