Guess I'm having some mild effects from yesterday's COVID-19 vaccination.
My age (74) and health issues may have affected it, and everyone may respond differently.

I had a mildly sore arm yesterday for a couple hours. No soreness this morning.

Last night I had some mild 'chills' (just got cold, no shakes, etc). I woke around 1 A.M. feeling cold.
Checked the heat and it was on. I turned it up and went back to sleep. Woke an hour later still cold.
I could sense that the room was warm and the heat working so I put on a sweatshirt and went back to bed after checking my temp and finding I had no fever.

I did not feel cold when I woke up this morning, and I turned the heat down some.

This morning I’m achy in the back of my neck.
Took two acetaminophen and plan to take it easy today (like 99% of my other days).

Take care.

2. Thanks for the update

I'll be getting the Moderna soon.

I have nights and aches like that without a vaccine.

All in all it doesn't sound too bad.

3. Was this your first or second shot? I had a slightly sore arm for a

few hours the morning after my first shot, but no other symptoms. I get my second shot on the 10th.
