10. I would not know if it came to sleep.

My wake-up time bounces around so much that my daily number of hours of sleep changes daily, that is not a good situation for avoiding a feeling of tiredness. Fortunately I keep my to bed time constant, so that helps somewhat.

2. Maybe the huge sense of relief?

 

I know I’ll feel like that if I ever qualify.

8. You may want to check your state's updated standard.

Don’t rely on the information on drug store information pages, that is out of date for age due to the cutoff being lowered rapidly in the last three weeks. Florida is 50 or above now, but when I went to register at the drugstore site, it was still saying 65 and above on age. As I was waiting to get the shot, I saw a lot of youngish people that were in the actual vaccine line (meaning their qualification had been checked).

15. Thanks, I get updates from the county and I'm still not eligible.

 

I’m taking an older friend to get her second shot Monday, so I thought I’d ask when I’m there if they have any extras lol. I’m still staying as safe as possible, but I’d feel a lot better if I at least knew when I would be able to get the shot.

17. Stay safe. At least the positive aspect is the choices that you have made

have kept you healthy.

3. I just got my first (Pfizer) today. Then I went and got groceries, because I figure

I could be under the weather for the next day or two.

4. I had my second Moderna shot yesterday. I've been tired all day but not enough to require a nap.

I will be going to bed a couple of hours early, though.

5. That's exactly what happened to me...and I'm an insomniac.

The second one gave me a headache, a little lethargy, a feeling of being "dopey" but was far less dramatic than the first.

6. Are you sure that you weren't simply sleep deprived?

I know that when I get in that mode, my brain shuts my body down into sleep.

7. The only issue I had with Moderna shot number one

was a headache. The pharmacist and I were discussing side effects after she came to check back on me and she told me that she experienced the same thing. My wife had no side effects.

If I'm being honest, I'm a little concerned about shot number two. I get the annual flu vaccine each fall and there have been a few occasions were I was sick afterward, once even missing three days of work as a result.

12. Had Moderna #1 this morning.

Didn’t notice anything until about 6:00pm, yawning and feeling a little spacey. Took some ibuprofen and perked up again.

13. My son started feeling tired six hours after his second Moderna

vaccine. He slept the rest of Friday. Then slept all day Saturday. Sunday it was like nothing happened.

14. I had weird effects.

No temp, but chills, lethargy, dizziness and low oxygen and elevated pulse rate for first one - second shot got very sore arm, kept me up at night for 2 days and again very tired. No pulse rate or oxygen issues this time.

16. We got our second shots yesterday, and the advice we were given has really helped

Drink a lot of fluids and take Tylenol every 4 hours the first day.. Hubby is a little sleepy, me just the opposite, I watched a bunch of movies last night.. but other than some tenderness at the injection site.. we are fine

18. My side effect from first dose of Moderna was a slightly sore arm.

I didn't notice any increase in sleepiness.
