    My pre-wife was down for the count for 48-36 hours after getting a vaccine shot. The second round was a little better but not by much.

    I understand I’m just some random person on the Internet but I’m giving factual information in interest of continuing the discussion.

    The interesting thing is that while I was fine after the shots, I was not fine being sick with covid (post shot). I was on bed rest for about 5 days and all I could do was wake up, take aspirin and Tylenol, take a shower because covered in cold sweats, drink lemon ginger tea with honey to soothe the throat, watch 30ish minutes of YouTube and knock myself out with melatonin to repeat the cycle.

    She, on the other hand, was fine getting covid post shot.

      Yeah, I got COVID after being vaxed too. My biggest symptom was just complete exhaustion and body aches. Mild cough for a couple days. It lasted about 5 days for me too. That said, I wonder how much worse it would have been if I wasn’t vaccinated.

        I can’t say I wondered how much worse it would have been without a shot but that’s because it was super bad for me with one ha.
