flylikethewindSunday arvo had Pfizer 2nd jab.
Felt sore around injection point since the jab.
I don't think I relaxed fully before they did the injection.
Not an entire heavy left arm this time!
Felt easy - only a bit sore around the injection point and a bit of sore muscles around there!!
Had a lovely long shower without trouble!
On Monday - still felt relatively at ease.
Hence, went to clean cabbage - took me about 2 hours and 3 minor cuts (1 on my left hand and 2 on my right hand).
Monday night had Feverish Chills just before dinner. It was a cold night so I turned on heater.
Then I had steam boat (heater was on downstairs as well).
Then head felt heavy (not left/right sided... pretty much centralised near the front mid of my head).
Lied down and put on a blanket with heater but the heat just couldn't sink in.
Hence I went to have a nice long warm shower thinking it might help.
The heavy head went away and I ended up feeling a mild fever. Hands were warmer than usual, and face was feeling a bit warm. Surprisingly, my forehead wasn't really hot.
That said, I still wasn't feeling too comfy (but at least not too uncomfy given my forehead wasn't hot like I'd thought it would be).
Had water to try cool down in absence of panadol (only had expired panadol elixir at home + panamax capsules which I don't know how to swallow) and tried to sleep.
After few hours on and off of getting more water and bathroom trips, finally managed to sleep.
Tuesday woke up - no more fever to my relieve.
Felt like I was going to come up with a cold though - very tiny bit of phlegm, bit of runny nose.
Took it easy.
Arm was still feeling a bit sore around injection point (and feels bruised if touched it applying a tiny amount of pressure) and it also felt like something was pulling my muscle near my injection point. Left shoulder also felt a little sore.
Late Tuesday night - felt pretty good. Stayed up and watched Masked Singer episodes 1-5 whilst working on my resume like a snail.
Wednesday - discovered that I had 'covid arm' by the afternoon when I dared to look at it. The area around my injection point was from time to time itchy, and slightly pink round mark.
It was still feeling itchy, had a shower and tried to leave that arm alone by not getting it hit too hard by the shower water, though I gave it a mild warm / a mild cold shower here and there without applying bodywash this time.
Still quite itchy after shower.
Going to call it a night :)
