Of all the stuff I was expecting to happen after my booster, having it feel like someone shoved a golf ball in my underarm lymph node was definitely not on my list.
Doing some reading shows it's a known side effect but I don't recall many people complaining about it.
I did well with little to no symptoms for the first two shots. I feel like a big baby right now but man, this is uncomfortable AF.
@h2oaddicted @Hobyrim lymphedema isn’t a joke. Check with your MD.
@sfleetucker it was listed as a side-effect and went away after about a week, so didn’t really think anything of it. If it had lasted longer than what was listed as “normal” I would have gone in. It was a different lymph node each time 🤷🏼♀️
My lymph nodes in my arm pit swelled like crazy after my second shot. I'm scheduled for my booster tomorrow and so hope it doesn't happen again. You're right it is uncomfortable AF.
@Hobyrim , it happened to me, too. I was a little fussed for a day or three. (Family history, high risk meds, biological categories, etc.) All's well now. Worth sending a message your PCP, but likely watch and wait, "tincture of time," will see you feeling better and staying healthier.
@Hobyrim I had that happen with both the 2nd shot and the booster. Sooo uncomfortable
