22. Moderna booster
Tue Nov 2, 2021, 12:22 PM
Nov 2021

Got mine last week, and unlike my second dose, was NOT sick with chills and fever for 12 hours. The only effect I noticed was a soreness at the injection site for 3 days. Just an FYI about my experience with getting 2 shots in 1 day - 10 years ago I got a flu shot and a pneumonia shot on the same day - different arms. For about 18 months afterwards, I would get FUO every few months. The fevers would spike to 102, then drop when I took Aleve or Advil. This would go on for a day or 2. Finally, I went to my Doctor who could find nothing wrong, and just diagnosed the condition as fever of unknown origin. Last year, I got a flu shot for the first time in 10 years. No problem. For me, taking 2 powerful innoculations at the same time is not good. Maybe others have had this experience too.
