    Not yet, but you are on your way to a high degree of immunity.

    Walgreens the only place to wait 4 weeks instead of 3?

    Depends on which vaccine you get. Pfizer is 3 weeks between doses, Moderna is 4.

    Walgreens auto-assigns a 4-week second dose because not every store gets Pfizer or Moderna. Easier to program their computer for 4 week intervals.

    Yes, had this experience as well. Was able to schedule a 2nd dose at the 3-week interval (Pfizer) at a different provider. Will cancel the 4 week Walgreen one once I get that shot. Shame Walgreen couldn't of spent an extra couple of dollars to program properly. The pharmacist at the store when I got the first shot was not pleased to be dealing with the constant questions about it.

    Had my second dose of Pfizer last Tuesday. No issues. Took a nice nap after a big breakfast that I treated myself. Sore arm the next day but nothing like the first one. So no effects whatsoever at all.

    I could use a nap right now though!

    I just received my first shot today. Trying to find an appointment in MD is a nightmare. Vaccinespotter.org helped simplify the process. They constantly scan all the major pharmacies and will let you know which ones have appointments available.

    First Fauci Ouchie today, second dose (Moderna) scheduled :thumbsup: So far (~8 hours later) I feel better than I thought I was going to; hoping that keeps up :) (UPDATE - so far so good the day after... maybe the slightest tenderness at the injection site and a tiny uptick in background aches and pains, but nothing outside the normal realm of pain levels, and not tired/lethargic... way better than any other vaccine I’ve had in the past decade or so :cool:)

    All systems clear!

    Yesterday around noon time after receiving the 2nd Pfizer vaccine I took a nap.
    I woke up about an hour later with a stiff neck and thought oh crap I'm getting
    the symptoms everyone talks about. I made myself a bowl of Chicken Noodle
    soup around 5pm and went to bed around 8pm and slept better than I usually do.
    Woke up this morning with no pain in my arm or anywhere else with lots of energy!

    Chicken Noodle soup is a known remedy for almost everything! I wonder if it can be injected! :)
