and boy did it knock me on my ass... Felt fine the day of, then when I tried to go to bed, it started. Chills so bad I couldn't stop shivering long enough to put a sweater on, followed by fever, nausea, and a severe headache that has endured all day long. Been taking Tylenol and that's helped a good bit, but now I've maxed out the doses and can't take any more today, so I really hope these issues calm down and continue to improve over the course of the day. I feel better than I was, even managed to eat something and can kinda sorta walk around now... but woof. I heard the second shot was supposed to be worse than the first one, but I was not prepared for this.

As a side note, I felt so crappy that I gave the cats all their food for the day at once. I didn't know if I was gonna be able to make it down the stairs again for their usual feeding times, so I let them graze today... and guess whose bowls are already completely empty only halfway through the day?

post-vaccine day 2: Definitely feeling better, thank goodness. Still had to take something for the headache, which just did not want to go away. Feel kinda weak and shaky and off-balance when I walk around, but I can walk around, at least. No more nausea or body aches, no more chills and fever, though I do feel exceptionally sweaty. basically the whole "just getting over being sick" package, which isn't super fun but I'll take this over yesterday's baloney any day.

@Bonnie: dang I wish i had some applesauce... i mostly ate cheetos yesterday lol it was the easiest thing to grab that didn't look like it would upset my stomach too much.

@Totalanimefan: Much better honestly... aside from having to take something again for the headache. hopefully it wont' come back again. >_>

@Bonnie: I get that; I cannot tolerate headaches. :'^|
I like chunky unsweetened applesauce.. or cinnamon. I've seen the pear one around, probably had it at one point, but I haven't bought any kind of applesauce in a while...

@KittyBeary: I remember arm soreness lasting for a while from the first one, too. So far I feel mostly better but still getting intermittent spells of faintness/dizziness if I move around too much. Hopefully that'll be gone after tomorrow.
