The folks I have heard about having a harder time were folks burning the candle at both ends.
A week before my vaccine, I made a point to get to bed on time, ate my fruits and veggies, drank plenty of water, took my vitamins. I was a bit tired and took naps after I got my vaccines. Each person is different. |

My first (Moderna) vaccine gave me a slightly sore upper arm the second day, then after that it was less sore, and maybe a bit stiff. No major discomfort. Not my dominant arm. My second appointment is scheduled, but some weeks away still. I'm sorry people have been so uncomfortable, but glad of this discussion. I plan to take good care of myself before and after the second dose, in hopes I get through it okay. It hadn't occurred to me that being well hydrated might make such a big difference for some people. And hey, this is yet another good excuse to stay on track with my good eating habits and sleep hygiene, right?

That is a good point about hydration - it is something i struggle with as well - don't know why, really...so I think I will make it a point between now, and whenever I get the vaccine (it seems extremely difficult to get one here - I'm under 60, no health conditions - so maybe that is why???) to be better about hydration.
Thanks for sharing the article on working out! I am honestly expecting a reaction - I get reactions to the flu vaccine every year - some minor some more severe. One year after the flu vaccine I developed a high fever, got dizzy, and fainted. Other years it is just a general feeling of being off, achey, etc. So - I'm preparing for the worst. Donna |

LAC-Thanks for the suggestion about staying hydrated and maybe having less of a reaction from the Corvid shots. I don’t drink liquids like I should.
I wanted to share the only way I have been successful in drinking more liquids during the day. When making breakfast, lunch, or dinner, I heat up water and make a thermos of herbal or green tea. I put the thermos in a place that’s convenient to where I be and I have to drink all of it before my next meal. After dinner I have to drink it by 8 pm.
