CV arm poke

[Adam Strange]

I’m aware of the potential for harm that COVID has, because both of my parents died from it last year, about two weeks apart. Since I’m not seven years old and immortal, I decided to get a shot just for the added insurance.

I’m betting that I’ll die of a heart attack, which I’m fine with, but I sometimes lose bets. Not often, but it happens. On the other hand, I’m frankly scared to death of dying from loss of breath.


I got the Pfizer vaccine because my health care provider offered it for free. I had zero concerns about its safety because I’m Si-PoLR.

I had no reaction to the first shot for two days, then I actually fell asleep while driving (which has only happened to me once before, when I was 21 and thoroughly drunk) and bounced off the guardrail and then drove home and fell asleep and felt exhausted and sick for 1.2 days. I was fine after that.
I just had a second shot yesterday and I feel fine. Gonna avoid driving for a few days, though, just in case.
