COVID 19 Vaccine And MS
Has anyone received the COVID 19 vaccine? What were the effects on your body afterwards? I'm very apprehensive about getting the vaccine. I must because I am a school teacher and I am scheduled to go back into the school.
Received first dose of Moderna, no side effects or arm pain.
I am not on a DMT and got the 1st Moderna vaccine 2/14. 2 hours after the shot I broke out with a sunburn and intense itching from my waist up for 6 days. Benedryl helped a bit. THEN 14 days after injection got Covid Arm-had a 6x6” swollen, red and hot upper arm for 4 days. My allergist said I had an allergic reaction and should not get the 2nd shot. So bummed! I have a history of sensitivities to some foods, certain antibiotics, yeast and mold. Never had this before!
I had my second Pfizer last week. Sore arm and the day after the 2nd injection and had sore muscles and joints, but not bad at all. Do it!
Had my first Moderna shot on 1/1 and the second on 1/25 - other than a sore arm (no more than a flu shot) I had no side effects.
