Caller wanted to know if she can experience the same reaction after the second dose.

The second day she was tired toward the afternoon Saturday. Then, 18-20 hours later she became exhausted. She slept until Sunday at 1 o'clock. On Monday, she was achy.She felt more achy and clumsy yesterday.Today, she seems fine. She provided her weight as 212-215lbs. She has polymyalgia rheumatica. Which she has been diagnosed with for 20 years or more. It is hereditary. Her mom had it too. She takes prednisone so it makes her weight fluctuate and makes her hungry so she eats. The bowel issue was during the night . It wasn't diarrhea. It was like her bowels emptied. It could have been from the soup she ate or could have been a lot of things . Her polymyalgia affects her muscles and joints, but this achiness was totally different on her joints and muscles. She woke up today and felt fine. She was really achy and clumsy yesterday. She doesn't know it was weird. She rested and felt better as the day went on. She went to the store that morning, and couldn't wait to get home because she was achy all over.She has an allergy to penicillin and shrimp. She told them that at the location she got the vaccine, and they wanted her to stay and extra half hour to make sure she didn't have a reaction.She gets the second vaccine on 26Mar2021, and next time she will get it in her right arm.She has taken Zithromax before, but it does nothing for her.
