In Texas the process is pretty straight forward. All by appointments and a 15 minutes wait after. Total 20 minutes. My mother in law got in two weeks ago. I get it this coming Friday. I was originally apprehensive about it. I know enough people who got it. No problem so far. My father in law who’s 90 in North Carolina got it a month ago. They did a drive through. He had a long in line wait.

I’m just worried for the people especially the young who seem to effective by side effects. My 92 year old father in law had all the shots. Got COVID twice. Both times just after boosters. By the way

I got my first dose of the Pfizer vaccine about 10 days ago. I go back for the second dose in another 11 days.  Arm was a little sore and I had a brief headache. My wife had the same reaction I did.  I've heard the second dose hits hard for a day. I know a decent number of people that have gotten it. No major reactions.

I've had both doses of Moderna.

 

First Dose Reaction:  Sore arm for 1.5 days, 10 minute case of "uncontrollable shivering" about 18 hours after the shot, felt "irritable" the next day.  Nothing else.

 

Second Dose:  Sore arm for 1.5 days, nothing else.  I did take regular Ibuprofen during this series though.

 

I had not been diagnosed with COVID prior to this and did not have symptoms that would have warranted testing although I was in the same office with 5 others who tested positive and had symptoms.

Did they advise using pain medication? I had read somewhere that this could diminish the vaccine results [emoji2373]

Also everyone I know that has had the vaccine has gotten sick (24 hr thing) after the second dose

Mine was similar to this with the Moderna vaccine but the shivering was also with what I believe was a fever and a lot of sweating.  Felt bad enough to have to take the day off work as I woke up about 5am with those symptoms.  Felt fine later that day.

 

Just got my 2nd shot this morning, hopefully it won't be as bad since my body has built up some resistance with the first vaccine.

 

I work at a hospital and the results have been all over the place since we started back in mid-December.  Some people have no reaction, others have mild or moderate symptoms like what I had.  So far no severe reactions at all that they have reported, which is good.

 

We have also moved on to the 1B stage with 65+ with health issues getting the vaccine first.  Nothing major has been reported in those patients either.

Sitting in the cool down room after first shot. The injection was painless. Any after effects I’ll post.

I’m cool. Helping the wife with little remodeling projects. She gets on a tare sometimes. I feel completely normal. I’ve heard the second dose may cause some minor cold like symptoms.

I'm happy to hear vaccines getting in the arms of familiar people!  It became very real and hopeful when my son phoned to tell us he had just received his first shot!  I might be in Karnut's neck of the woods sooner than expected!

My ma just got the first shot of Moderna. Walgreens. Very quick process, maybe 15 minutes total. They had her hang out for 5 minutes to make sure everything was fine so she did some shopping. 
 

She got really hot and then really tired briefly afterwards. All that seems to have subsided now. Arm still very sore but otherwise no issues.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By Jsdirt · Posted

      I was around and remember that era very well, so I'm calling b/s on that statement. If they were that bad no police department or taxi company would've bought a single one ... but they were used in both services (and fire) for DECADES. They were bulletproof and proven. Even the early 21st century ones weren't too bad! The early models were legendary.   Mine is proof, but people like atlas are blinded by agenda and refuse to believe facts right before their very eyes.   Even decades after they were built, a new generation started driving them, posting all their builds and shenanigans on Grandmarq.net and Crownvic.net. The failures would show up then, since they all were deep past 100k-150k miles by that point, and younger drivers tend to be a little aggressive, especially with vehicles than can lay a one-tire fire for as long as you hold your foot in it. They've more than proven themselves over the decades.   The only thing that'll really take them out is road salt. The bodies and sheet metal were garbage. A victim of the cheapout FoMoCo and GM have been partaking in before then, and since.   Today it's the stuff that counts - the undercarriage that rots away first!    GMs Caprice was no slouch either. Reliable as a stone ax - the opposite of what they build now.

      Let me know how your vehicles do in 10 years. You don't know ******, kid. 😂    There's a reason that Panther platform was used as police, fire, and taxi service for DECADES ... long before you were born, apparently.

      Disconnecting Battery

      By davester · Posted

      If your connector also has a big lever to get the connector on and off, you don't want to force the lever either way, as it becomes a bigger problem if you bust the lever or the mechanism it works.

      Disconnecting Battery

      By davester · Posted

      It's just useful to disconnect the battery to prevent odd shorting out when unplugging/plugging stuff together.  I also  touch the two cable ends together (after disonnecting) to drain the small amount of stored battery energy in various modules.   I believe the main system where you need to be more concerned with, so you need to do the above and then wait some time, iss when you are working on the air bag system, to prevent inadvertent firing of the air bags.   The in-cab switches are just that, plain switches, it's generally not a problem to swap them in/out.  For my '12, I'll get an error message on the dash if I power up the truck w them unplugged, but that's it (power up= turn the ignition on).   The ITBC located above the spare tire is a computer that manages the trailer brake system.  That is probably more important to have the battery disconnected.  It does have to be programmed to the truck, either before or after it's installed, for it to work.  For my '12, I had a very hard time reinstalling the main connector to it (IDK if yours is the same or not), it turned out the silicon seal was jamming up, preventing it from going on all the way.  I finally got it fully installed by lubing the seal with a bit of dielectric grease, then it slid on and latched in place easily.

      Remote Start Noise 2024 2500 HD Gas

      By BCGM · Posted

      JR ! I just got the truck back from the Dealership today . The technician did a cold remote start on the truck this morning and it made the noise . It was determined that it was a starter issue and replaced it under warranty . Of course   it did not make the sound after a new starter was put in because the truck was not cold . We will we see what happens tomorrow morning when I start the truck cold  . Keep tuned !   Oh I found a video on YouTube of a cold start and it did the same thing your truck and mine do , I will see if I can find it and post it up
