Has anyone had a LOW body temperature after the 2nd Moderna shot?

I had my second Moderna shot at noon yesterday.

My body temp typically is around 97.6 but at the moment (if my one and only thermometer is correct) my body temp is 96.8

I did take an extra strength Tylenol a couple hours ago for body aches.

It has generally been 97.1. Not sure if it’s related. Was exhausted about 40 hours after it, then tired most of the week.

Both my spouse and myself had severe chills about 15 hours after the shot. Her's lasted about 3 hours, mine lasted about 15 minutes. Then it turned into a very low grade fever for about 12 hours.

after the shot until about 30 hours after. Horrible chills, body felt like I had been hit by a truck and every joint in my body hurt. I felt feverish with the chills but I was running low. Actually very low. My normal is about 97.7 or so and I was running in the high 95s. Used 3 thermometers to double check.
At about 30 hours post shot the chills just stopped and over the next day my joint pain got better and my temperature returned to my normal.
