My vaccine prediction came true.....my body has the strangest reaction to any vaccine....the same with a flu vaccine that I get every year without fail. One day of 'down-time' doesn't mean I shouldn't get it.
But this booster was the strangest yet. It was like having an entire flu illness in one short day. I woke up and went to have a cup of coffee (normal)....it made me ill. So I tried some saltine crackers so I could take my morning meds. Mistake there, too. LOL
So, I just went to bed. Then I got cold...I'm NEVER cold! I even considered putting on some socks as my feet felt like ice cubes. But the effort to get up and try to find a pair of socks wasn't worth it so I just doubled up on a cotton throw to go over my legs in bed. Next time I woke up I was HOT! (now that's normal....) I tried to drink some ice water but it just gagged me. Back to bed.
About 4:30 I really felt much better ~ like the end of the flu ~ and I warmed up some chicken stock I had made & thawed just so I'd have an option to hydrate my body. It was good but I don't think I got much hydration from the scant 1/4 c. I was able to get down before feeling 'full'. But it was nourishment, all the same.
I was back in bed for the night by 7:30 and when I woke up at 6 all the symptoms have magically disappeared (except for a sore back from laying around all day yesterday) and I'm ready to get going on my chicken pot pie for tonight's supper!
Gee, I wonder if I lost 40 pounds yesterday??? I better go check! (doubtful, I know, but a girl can dream)
