Moderna 2 has ripped my head off and fucked the neck hole.
Got the shot at noon yesterday--from a sadist. PA dude jabbed too close to the bone and injected slow, holding it there for more than 10 seconds, to prevent backfill. I think he was trained in Russia, as he was bitter and angry, didn't want any chit chat. First guy was a delightful elderly pulmonologist working the shift, seemed very happy to be there and you know, quite a bit proud. He knew what he was doing.
felt a little lightheaded soon after (like, 20 minutes after walking out of the injection site and back to the lab), but lightheadedness is sorta my resting state, so I couldn't really attribute that to the shot immediately. Felt a tad "overcooked" for the rest of the day. By 8pm last night, it was like full-on flu: whole head ache, whole body aches, fever, crazy body chills. very little sleep w/ fever dreams. Injection sight and arm was immobile. Feel like shit all day today. Took 2 Aleve last night and 2 ibuprofen this morning. Maybe it helped...dunno.
I'm sure many have had it worse, but I'm just not used to getting sick...from anything, really, and I've never had an adverse reaction to anything injected into my person or swallowed.
