Got a belated birthday pressie from the state

[oloriel]

Well, a birthday stabbie, as it happens. Am feeling fine so far, except that my left bicep hurts like someone punched me...

Did consider that I shouldn't get the shot into my writing arm. Did not consider that I sleep on my left side, though :/

But, yay! Progress!

Congrats!

I got my first dose in my left arm because I'm right handed. I forgot I sleep on my left side. My second dose went into my right arm and it was better simply because I could comfortably sleep.

I managed to sleep OK, fortunately - was tired enough to fall asleep even on the "wrong" side. Upper arm is still painful - not in a worrisome way, just the way a bruise feels, but it would've been very unpleasant to constantly need it during video lessons, so on the whole, it was probably the right choice. But I had a real "duh" moment last night when I realised I wouldn't be able to lie on the arm!

Congrats on getting your second dose already! \o/
