33. After my 2nd Moderna I did the taking it easy. I dislike taking Tylenol or even aspirin

after immunizations. I have a mental picture of placing borders on my immune response. I am retired and had I been working after my first and second shots, my response to the vaccines would have been lost among the hectic, crazy shit that was daily work. Being retired I was able to "contemplate my navel" and noticed symptoms.

On the other hand, I do take a combo of acetaminophen and ibuprofen before each dental visit.

The vaccine is still needed where you are. MineralMan Mar 2021 #37
