I just got three vaccines in the same arm. Even the pharmacist was like, “Are you sure about this?” And I said, “Bring it.” I have asthma and COVID and the flu hit me hard. I got it for the second time last Christmas. If I temporarily get sick from the vaccines it’s no big deal. - ThreadSky

I got two, one in each arm yesterday. They advised no more than two shots at a time. I'll go back in a month and get my RSV, then I'll start on my shingles vaccine series and pray I can get them all before Trump & company destroys access.

cindawggg.bsky.social•192 days ago

I got 2 today. Same arm.

theglobalvc.bsky.social•192 days ago

Pharmacist suggested I only get two at a time. But you’re young.

micheleh63.bsky.social•192 days ago

Last year I got the Flu, Covid and RSV shots in one arm. No big deal. This year just the Flu and Covid. Slept most of the next day, which was great lol

rifftricky.bsky.social•192 days ago

I got 2 today but in diff arms. My wife got both in 1 arm yesterday & is feeling it today!

I ask for everything they’ve got… then settle for just what my insurance will mostly cover.

dfugelso.bsky.social•192 days ago

The shingles vaccination cost me a day of my life. Mostly slept through it and lost five pounds. Haven’t got this year’s shots (flu, Covid), but going soon.

messone.bsky.social•192 days ago

I did the same thing and it wasn’t any different than getting one for me.

yankjet.bsky.social•192 days ago

yup, I just did covid and pneumonia ... same arm, ouch!

gtv6.bsky.social•192 days ago

As a healthy 76 year old here, don’t get more than one at a time.
Both my arm and every other part of my body told me to tell you after last years multiple injections.

badgertricia.bsky.social•192 days ago

I did COVID & flu in one arm and shingles in the other. Didn’t feel great for about a day, then just sore arms

stevenarmstead.bsky.social•192 days ago

I got the COVID and flu shots (first time on that one) a month or so ago in the same arm. I didn't get sick, the arm was just sore for a few days.

darm0v.bsky.social•192 days ago

I got two shots, Covid and flu, in my right arm today. No issues yet, good luck!

majdefcon1.bsky.social•192 days ago

A few weeks ago I had COVID, Flu and Shingles shot all at once. That night wasn’t the best but way better than the alternative!

decodingfoxnews.bsky.social•192 days ago

I’ve known some folks who have gotten Shingles and it’s an absolute nightmare.

aliking99.bsky.social•192 days ago

I did the same two days after the election. I was feeling helpless and hopeless and looking for some semblance of control over my body and my health.

csantiroc.bsky.social•191 days ago

Are you feeling okay after your three vaccines?

csantiroc.bsky.social•192 days ago

Just got Covid and Flu vaccines yesterday! Was very sick last night - every Covid single shot has made me feel sick, but I always get them. My mother died in the first wave of Covid - missed the vaccine by a week. I also have a chronically ill husband to protect.

decodingfoxnews.bsky.social•192 days ago

I’m so sorry for your loss. One of my childhood friends almost died from COVID she also got it right before the vaccines existed. She was a healthcare worker. She also had horrible complications from it.

csantiroc.bsky.social•192 days ago

Thank you. One blessing was they allowed me to be with her in the hospital.

paulobro.bsky.social•192 days ago

Good luck!! 👍

debscheetzam.bsky.social•192 days ago

Easy peasy on Covid and flu.

treatmaven.bsky.social•192 days ago

Might as well get it over with! 💪

jsferr.bsky.social•188 days ago

I always get them in the same arm. Why have two sore arms. I usually take a Tylenol before going seems to help a lot. Not so sore the next day.

rachelbell44.bsky.social•192 days ago

The worst was when I did pneumonia, flu and Covid. That hit like an anvil on my brain. Two is now my max

tjs1939.bsky.social•192 days ago

What a woman, what a machine!

kdonohue.bsky.social•192 days ago

I got four, two in each arm, last year (flu, covid, rsv, pneumonia). Had a slight soreness in the injection sites the next day but nothing major.

csantiroc.bsky.social•192 days ago

Wow, four at once!

sloth-n-cheetah.bsky.social•192 days ago

Covid vax always last me out flat. Flu does nothing. I am scared of what shingles vax will do so I keep putting it off 🫤😬

stoptheshitnado.bsky.social•192 days ago

I had it. Had to return 6 mths later for the follow-up shot. Did not affect me at all. No worries.🤗💙👍

decodingfoxnews.bsky.social•192 days ago

The actual disease of Shingles is absolutely terrifying. I know some folks who got it. If you can get the shot, I’d get the shot. They break it up in two shots over two months.

sloth-n-cheetah.bsky.social•192 days ago

I do know that and it adds to my anxiety for sure. I know I had chicken pox as a kid, I remember it clearly. My husband hates needles and even he is ahead of me on this one, lmaoooo

jeffaleon.bsky.social•192 days ago

The pharmacist wasn’t worried you would get more sick. It would just make your arm a lot more sore.

nursejp2002.bsky.social•192 days ago

Your smart to protect yourself! You'll probably wake up with a really sore arm but that's a small price to pay, especially having asthma. 😃

romansmith.bsky.social•192 days ago

You rock! 👍

x-emigre.bsky.social•192 days ago

I always say “load me up!” It shocks my antivaxxer relatives. A new vaccine coming out? Load me up!

barbiedahl.bsky.social•192 days ago

Why same arm?

truetanker.bsky.social•192 days ago

I had two vaccine injections in the same arm on consecutive days this year. I felt like my arm was going to fall off, LOL.

patricialtgtr.bsky.social•192 days ago

I got my updated Covid shot and my flu shot today, too. I asked the pharmacist to put them in the same arm (they have before) and he said no, they don’t do that anymore, unless you have a medical reason for it. I prefer one sore arm to two, but like you just glad to get them done.

decodingfoxnews.bsky.social•192 days ago

Mine did all three in my left arm in a row. It’s sore but so far not that bad.
