Well I got checked out everything ok. Vertigo shit finally passed after 18hrs. When you get the shot in the US you are enrolled in something called v-safe. It’s the cdc asking you to document side effects. You get daily texts asking how you are feeling. I don’t know if this is going to be for everyone or just frontline. I did just talk to an MD who got his second shot of the Pfizer vax he said he had every side effect one could think of. He told me is is afraid of mass call outs of healthcare workers due to sickness if this is going to be common. He said he pushed himself to work but it was very difficult. I did take one day off directly due to the side effects. From what I’m hearing it seems more people complain on the second does. Mine is scheduled for early next month.
I’m not trying to sway anyone to take it or not to take it all I can do is report a little info in advance since I’m getting it a little earlier than some. Even with the side effect I had it wasn’t bad enough that I would tell people to be weary tbh it just ruined my day, I don’t get many days where I can do nothing so in a way it wasn’t that bad but I would have enjoyed it much more had I not been laying down due to the damn dizziness. I hope everyone who wants it is able to get it ASAP.
The driving force for me was a lot of the patients I come into contact with have diabetes. It seems of all the covid cases I personally know, which really isn’t that many, the ones that end up in the hospital are the diabetics. What that MD told me is a bit concerning the nurse administering my dose said I missed the Pfizer does by a week. In the end I’m glad I’m doing it but I am bummed out I ended up having to call out sick because I was the first in my group to get the shot. I tried to get the point across it really wasn’t that bad just had to take the day off because of the dizziness.
