My son and I got our second boosters today. Then we stopped for a late lunch at

the Cervantes Mexican Restaurant. We did our arm exercises in the pharmacy and
later with no side effects. We got the moderna. That's what I call a win-win!

Chills, aches, very sore arm all lasting about 24-30 hrs. Hope you too escape all side effects! My husband experienced zero side effects from all of his 4 shots.

Good luck!

She reacted badly to the first booster. I was worried that I had no reaction - none - to the first booster. I was concerned that my system did not respond at all.
