10. Got number 3 at the VA hospital

Last week. 1 and 2 left a sore arm but typical for any shot I get. Some body aches. But this one made my arm hurt a few hours later and bad all through the night, hard to sleep, body aches were bad second day and tired. Took Day Quil late in the day and the aches subsided. Just glad to get number 3. I have annual physical at the VA November 5 and will scheduled to get flu shot then. Feel good for the protection and if 4 is ever needed, no hesitation.
