You have my sympathy! Pretty sure the 'rona rates are sky high now where I live so I wouldn't be surprised if that's what I've got too. What I hate most is the specific type of boredom I get with it - restless but tired & trying to rest + too foggy brained to sustain much. Hope u feel better soon. ❤️‍🩹

Three more nights until it's Hibernation Day at my place. Send vibes & strength because I have far too much people-ing to get through before that. 😭😭😭

Oh that's very interesting! Yeah, my partner, who is much closer to NT than me, usually has much milder reactions, to the point that he was worried for a while today that I might actually be sick & contagious so he wanted to keep his distance 😂. He just got me some Pho, tho, so all's forgiven 😉.

Yay! Yeah I've been having inflammation & congestion issues (more than my usual) as well so you're not alone there! It all seems to be slowly fading away though. Hopefully we'll both sleep a lot better tonight!

Nearly 28 hrs post-jab, my 14-ish hrs of side effects misery seems to be coming to an end.

There's nothing quite like the sweet relief of a fever breaking and my mood leveling back out as a result, because holy crap, we don't talk about the emotional effects of fevers enough.

I got mine just over 24hrs ago and omg I've been feeling SO whiny & gross (fever, headache, chills, etc). Finally remembered 1) to hydrate much more aggressively and 2) that I could whine about it to mostly-strangers here, and both seem to be helping me cope. Hope it's getting better for you.

Right?? Must be nice. I'm so happy for those who do have access 😒.

But I'm glad you got thru it ok! I don't want to jinx it but it's ~possible~ my fever is improving a tiny bit, for which I'm extremely grateful.

Yup, did several hours of physical labour after mine yesterday and then got the aches, chills, fever. Still pretty ick.

Ugh I got mine at the same time as my flu shot yesterday and I am going THRU it right now, as usual. It helps a tiny bit if I drink a ton of water afterwards but of course I forgot 😭.
