Got my 3rd shot, the 'booster', and some good advice from the pharmacist...

[634-5789]

He was straigth upfront, because I felt I should get my flu shot since I was already there. He disagreed, said...and I see his point...that there could be soreness reactions that I would not get from just one vaccination. This makes sense!

1. I got just the opposite advice from my pharmacist.

This past Monday my pharmacist gave me the Pfizer booster and the flu shot at the same time. And he also advised putting them both in the same arm so as not to have two sore arms in case I got sore.

That was four days ago and I've had no soreness or other side effect.

From reading other posts on peoples' experiences with the two shots, it looks like doctors have differing opinions, some preferring to be more cautious than others.

2. Got both in same arm. While neither really hurt, felt the flu shot more.

3. My wife's doctor gave her both at the same time this week,

in different arms. I had the flu shot yesterday. I’ll probably get the booster next week.

5. My friend couldn't get a COVID-19 shot until two weeks after flu shot

I keep hearing different things. I got my flu shot three weeks ago and my Pfizer booster three days ago. My arm is still sore from the Pfizer.

6. I got my booster yesterday as well

I opted to wait for my flu shot and will get it next week. I just wanted one new thing at a time bubbling around in me
