Shingles Shots
« on: June 03, 2021, 08:24:15 AM »
I hit 50, so needed to get my old man doctor's list done.  One thing is the Shingles Vaccine.  Shot number 1 and it hurt like a mofo.  Arm swelled up like Popeye, and felt pretty beat up.  I just got my second shot yesterday and it's just plain wiping me out.  All I can think about is going home from work and getting into bed, but I have a rod to drop off to Skrilla to fix up, so I must power through!  ;D

I also need to fix my Sonar Switch as my power line doesn't seem to power it up too easily anymore.  Need to get that baby done before I take it out fishing soon.

Damn. I was thinking I was due for one, but now I’m not sure.

I got mine a while ago with no issues, it is something you definitely don't want ;) The 50's club is great, now you can get your Colonoscopy ;D ;D

Damn, kills me hearing people say 50 is old.  I passed that mark over 20 years ago, now I guess I'm 'ancient'.  Got my shingles shots a while back without any issues, good luck Friday   ;D

My second shot was no where as bad as the first shot, but it was really sore for a few days.
