She's slowly becoming better but the first few days were really bad. Had it on 12Apr2021, on a Monday. About Thursday, her joints started to bulge and felt like they were burning and on fire. All of the joints were hard to function and got extremely tired. Had a migraine and was nauseous. It lasted 3 to 4 days. It all went away. Things got better and she called the doctor. Some of the arthritis was worse than before.  Everything started 14Apr2021. Had a severe reaction for 4 days until 17Apr2021. The fourth day was kind of better. It was really really painful and was slowly going away. Was lingering with the shoulders and elbows. The shoulders and elbows have arthritis but were not hurting. It was still there but lingering. Before it was burning and now when she uses her shoulders, she thinks ouch, it hurts. Elbows hurt and it hurts when she uses the joints. The pain in the fingers and joints hurt when she uses them. They did hurt before but not like this. Now, it was every single finger joint. After the vaccine it got worse. She had arthritis pain before. Some joints hurt now more than before. A few things are wrong with the back. Whether or not, she couldn't tell. It was nothing new. What she noticed was more in her shoulders, elbows, fingers and upper extremities. Her knee is bone on bone in one knee and had issues with both knees. was not related. Might need a knee replacement. It hurts to move. Her back wasn't this bad before either.
