Second booster. Ouch!

I did not have any reactions to the Pfizer vaccinations or the first booster.  However, today the spot I got the 2nd booster  is sore, warm and painful.  I wondered if this was going to happen because the nurse was pretty rough injecting it into my arm.  Otherwise, I am feeling fine.  I don't think Sjogren's is going to affect anyone getting the booster.

It's amazing how one nurse can be so different from another!  Whenever I get a gentle nurse, I praise her for it and thank her very much.  Sometimes the nurse will be moving around while the needle's in one's arm and that can make a huge difference in soreness.  I haven't had the nerve yet to let them know that they should keep that hand still while it's in one's arm.  I wish I was more assertive sometimes.

Doctor from the sjogren's foundation talked about the vaccine for sjogren's patients and who should get it and why. Pretty informative.
