8. Got my double a few weeks ago. No trouble, just two sore arms for a day or two.

Same as the other four and flu shot the same. I'm 86 and keep expecting problems but so far so good, just minor irritation.

9. Good luck!

Got the 5th shot as soon as available a few weeks ago and had slightly less reaction than earlier versions. Held off on flu vaccine until yesterday. First time flu shot didn’t make my arm really sore for a few days. Hoping you have similar minimal impact 🙂

10. I got both about a month ago.

I had a nasty reaction to the flu shot, the arm was red and tender. My temp shot to 101.5. Two days, then I was fine. My body doesn't like the flu shot, it is not the first time I have had a reaction. The COVID arm was fine.

I am just glad I am vaxed.

12. I also got both 4 weeks ago.

I am a little worried that I got the flu shot too soon. It might have been better to wait another month.

14. Who knows these days.

However I am still masking 90% of the time. In the 2 years of COVID, I haven't even had a cold.

That says a lot.

19. I have only been sick once in the last 2 1/2 years. It was when I got COVID.

My case wasn't too bad. The vaccine and paxlovid made it a mild experience.

If you have gotten 4-5 shots then you are in good shape. Your T-cells should be well trained to fight it off.

21. Thanks, Stevie.

Stay safe.

11. Fingers crossed.

[cilla4progress]

13. We did fine.

Good luck!

I heard only 5 million of us have gotten covid vaccine no. 5!

[Demovictory9]

22. Yeah..no more crowds and competition for shot appointments. Kinda sad

[BigmanPigman]

15. I got mine last week and did have reaction

...a big migraine. I has a slight migraine from the previous shots but this time was worse, nausea, etc.

I would still get the shot even if I knew it would make me feel a little shitty compared to REALLY shitty with Covid. I will continue to get boosted as long as they make effective ones.

16. Whoah. I gotta hang with you. How does one manage that? Good for you.

I'm not due for just my third booster 'til November.

[iluvtennis]

17. Congrats. Please keep us posted so we have data point for the 3rd booster. n/t

18. I got the 5th last Friday

It kicked my ass, but not for long. Haven’t had my flu shot yet, but soon. Don’t think I could handle two at once.

[dflprincess]

20. I get both tomorrow

Flu shots have never bothered me but I've spent a day in bed after each Covid shot. I took Friday off assuming it will be the same this time.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

23. It was beet two weeks now since I got both shots

I got the high dose flu shot.

We have an in person partners meeting next week. This will be the first in person meeting in two years
