Also said women more likely to get sick and men probably not get any. He got the same shot, same time, and no bad side effects. So lost a weekend of quilting.
This seems like a typical side-effect. My friend, who is a nurse, indicated that this experience means the body is assimilating the vaccine in the way you want it to. I'm getting my second Moderna next Saturday. I've warned the family that I might be sleeping it off for a few days. Glad you are feeling better.
