You are so hilarious, Iza. It is getting scary in the states, too, again. The variants are everywhere, but worse in some states. Stay well, Iza, you have to get to see your mom soon.

I have yet to know anyone, personally, who have had any problems with Pfizer. But I've known many who have ran fevers, had headaches, rash, and nausea with Moderna. But thankfully, it doesn't last long. Thanks for sharing.

I am so sorry you went through that awful reaction situation. I am one of the lucky ones who had no reaction--but I took the Pfizer doses and not the Moderna ones. You have written a strong story about the incident and I am glad you are now okay. It had to be a terrible experience.

You take us on a trip through the side effects in this one. All the details with the aches and pain, the burning sensation, the dizzy head spinning, really put us in your shoes. And also the struggle to compose that email to the nurse at work to get excused and also some advice with dealing with the side effects. estory

Oh dear Iza, this sounds horrendous! I have yet to have my second jab and I hope I don't experience any of this! The upside could be that this is a sign that you are well and truly covered. Love Dolly x

Oh, Iza, I'm so sorry to hear that you had such a reaction to your second shot! We had Pfizer for both shots and I had no problems with the second one. My arm hurt more and longer after the first one. Hope you feel better soon. Food might be a good idea. lol

to tell her that I need to go

asked me to sent the nurse

When your head weights a tone,

Once I was in, I composed a nice email, give it for correction to my faithful secretary - Grammarly,
and press the sent button and of course cc-d, my boss.

Thylenol

It supposed to be zero

At least this time were different

so I can't complaint

what you need to do take a second shot of Moderna.

Good morning, Iza... I think you must still be under the affects of that shot. LOL You might want to take a look at some of this. Hope you feel better. Smiles, Carol

Wow! It sounds like you had quite the reaction. It appears it was brutal. Maybe that means you will be immune much longer that those of us who felt nothing at all from either shot. I didn't have Moderna but I heard of a lot of people having a bad reaction from the second shot of both kinds of the vaccine. Maybe they gave me a placebo. I didn't even get a sore arm.

    I am happy that you had no reaction, the good news is that the cold I had after the first shot disappeared with the second shot:)

Dear Iza,

LOL Awesome piece. Well described, you do absolute justice to the narration of someone victim to the side effects. The tone and mood are equally right. I expected almost no adverse effects with the second one, but no they came by to say hello. Hope you are well rested and recovered by now.

Cheers,
DJ

Well, at least you are writing so that's a good sign. With everyone the results is variable. My husband had no symptoms with either jabs. Me, I had only a sore arm the first time but the second gave me some fever and chills. Hopefully, you got some sunshine right?

Remember originally, they were not going to let you get the second dose for months but now you are done and fully vaccinated before your trip. This is an answer to prayer!

Like bloody hell, women, (woman) I'm guessing she's only one! Lol.
When your head weights a tone, (weighs a ton)
take Thylenol every (Tylenol)
and for nausea gravol. (what is gravol?)
After I riged my medicine cabinet, (rigged)

    I guess they changed their mantra once they received more shipments of the vaccine. I got my vaccines and now I am playing the catching game with KLM.

    Hooray! KLM is a good airline. 😻
