Side Effects Mild this Time

Yesterday I got a flu shot and a Covid booster at noon. Thankfully my side effects are mild this time around.

Nothing much happened yesterday. I was tired and went to bed a bit early... but that could also be because I was up at 6:15 to start my workday with a 7am meeting.

This morning I woke up with dull body aches. I tried lying on one side then the other to sleep in. Both hurt so I got up. Through the morning I was feeling lethargic and slightly achy all over. It was no worse than if I done a decent hike the day before. One of my arms was slightly sore at the injection site— meaning, it felt sore when I poked it— but there was no swelling.

I'm now past T+24 hours. The achiness is at bay with the help of Tylenol and ibuprofen. I'm still feeling a bit tired... but honestly I've felt this way most of the past several weekends. Some of it is just me getting older.
