(31,261 posts)My wake-up time bounces around so much that my daily number of hours of sleep changes daily, that is not a good situation for avoiding a feeling of tiredness. Fortunately I keep my to bed time constant, so that helps somewhat.

(31,261 posts)Dont rely on the information on drug store information pages, that is out of date for age due to the cutoff being lowered rapidly in the last three weeks. Florida is 50 or above now, but when I went to register at the drugstore site, it was still saying 65 and above on age. As I was waiting to get the shot, I saw a lot of youngish people that were in the actual vaccine line (meaning their qualification had been checked).

(33,516 posts)The second one gave me a headache, a little lethargy, a feeling of being "dopey" but was far less dramatic than the first.

(3,626 posts)was a headache. The pharmacist and I were discussing side effects after she came to check back on me and she told me that she experienced the same thing. My wife had no side effects.
If I'm being honest, I'm a little concerned about shot number two. I get the annual flu vaccine each fall and there have been a few occasions were I was sick afterward, once even missing three days of work as a result.
