So I went to my pharmacy and discussed the COVID vaccine

24. I am just getting over COVID and I live about 10 miles south of N. Carolina

I had been planning on getting both the flu and COVID shots the last weekend of August but got a positive COVID test on Wednesday.
I had had it two years ago after having a shot and just ran a slight temp for 2 days and had a cough and runny nose. That was it and I attributed it being that mild because I was vaccinated. This time I ran a higher fever for 5 days, had chills, body aches, no appitite, no energy, hacked until my ribs felt like they had been broken, had a sore throat, sneezing spells a couple times a day, diarreah, and a stuffy nose. I still have a cough but it is now loose and not constant. I am just now getting about half of my energy back, have lost 5 pounds, have little to no appetite and sleep for hours on end.
My advice to you is to get a shot ASAP because it is also going around in SW Pennsylvania and I caught because it is going around where I live. You are in the middle of the two.
