Finally got vaccinated-big mistake!!!

[Dayton3]

I had resisted getting vaccinated, but since I'm having to have dialysis now I decided to get the shots because that is the only way I can avoid wearing a mask during my three times a week, three and a half hour treatment.

Big mistake. First the pain it caused to my arm was a hundred times worse than any shot I've ever had. Hard, bone deep pain.

But then today the effects of the vaccine wrecked my blood pressure and made my dialysis agonizingly painful. To the point that they had to pull me off the machine 20 minutes early today. It was absolute utter agony. I should've just stuck with wearing the damned mask.

One more reason for me to hate everyone remotely involved with the Covid-19 healthcare crisis. Trump, Biden, everyone.

It just makes me believe I was right to begin with We should've just sucked it up, willingly suffered the deaths and been done with it. (and I had family members die of Covid-19)

Sounds horrific. Don't envy you mate.

I have had both doses of my vaccine. I don't regret it. Had bad side-effects after the first one (fever, shakes, pounding headache, disorientated etc).

I'm 36 and the reason I've had both doses was that I had a kidney condition myself, like you've got - so I was on a priority list.

I visit the renal department of the hospital once a year for a check-up. My last visit was 6-months ago and my kidney bloods were fine with no issues. I'm in good health.

My urine though there's traces of protein and blood in it (but it only shows under a microscope) and provided it doesn't get any worse it's not an issue.

But I'm on blood pressure meds. Will be the rest of my life. I can't remember the name of the kidney condition I had but it sent my blood pressure sky high.

I woke up one night and my pillow was soaked - turned on the light and it was blood. A really bad nosebleed. It happened again next day, sink filled up with blood and jellied clots and wouldn't stop bleeding, phoned an ambulance and they thought I was heading for a stroke. Kept me in hospital for weeks, had a kidney biopsy operation and the key now is just keeping my blood pressure down (which it is)

I was worried I was heading for dialysis when my kidney function crashed and my blood pressure was sky high. Both my kidneys only run at 60-65% each which isn't great but it's well within the safe zone they say.

My friends daughter is on the transplant list. They told her when the function goes to between 7-10% she needs weekly dialysis while she waits on a match. I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

Hope you get better soon.

My paralegal took the shot on Monday and she's been out sick ever since.

I will NOT be taking this vaccination.

I thought right wingers were supposed to be tough. That's what you claim anyway.

Sorry to hear that pal. I'm not getting that vaccine, no way, no how.

But I can't blame Trump or Biden, only China. They're the ones who poisoned the world with their virus.

Despite my misgivings about the vaccine, partially due to my age, my lefty-loony significant-other has Leukemia and whose immune system is compromised, so having been hit with COVID-19 (thankfully, I had been away from her for a week when I was exposed) and stayed away until no longer contagious, I decided to get the vaccine. The result was....a somewhat sore arm and some body aches. Nothing more.
So, here's the thing, take a good hard look at the "side-effects" of simple Aspirin. The list is extensive.....and can be life-threatening. The reason they have those side-effects listed, are because those things on the list have been experienced by people using simple Aspirin. The same is true of any over-the-counter or prescription medication you ingest. People using ingestible medications can experience any of the long list of reactions to medications taken. Life's a crap-shoot and everyone reacts differently to different things entering their body.
So, just because you had a highly negative response to the vaccine, is no reason for millions to not take it. If it truly protects the "majority" of the public from actually contracting COVID-19, then it's worth some discomfort for some.

So will you be wearing a mask?

We both got 2 shots of the vaccines, it was sore arm where they stuck us, no biggy.

You afraid of getting the vaccines??

If it isn't broken, don't fix it. I have no need for the vaccine, as I had COVID last fall. It wasn't shit, three days and it was gone.

Took my first shot last week, so far so good.

They say it's the second shot that knocks you down a peg.

We shall see.

I am sorry to hear Dayton3 .

To get this dangerous vaccine is like playing Russian roulette, some get very sick some don't.

I am not going to play Russian roulette with my body.

I bet your cabinet is chock-full of corporate pharmaceuticals that you periodically pump into your body that's doing more harm than the vaccine could ever do.

You'll be fine. No one who votes DemoKKKrat has had any problems at all with the vaccine.
