Shots Galore

Hello,

 

I have now had two more shots in the arms. One was DPT and the other was the upgraded and improved shingles shot. The Dr. noticed that I needed a booster of DPT and that I had not yet gotten the new shingles. Because I was not working, today seemed like the perfect day to get this done.

 

Walking up to the pharmacy was a bit of a challenge with the cold and strong wind. But Leroy rode his bike today. He will have more of a challenge coming home as much of the time the wind will be in his face. I am just impressed that he is well enough to do it. He is so much better. Almost like I remember him being before all this started. His sense of humor has returned.

 

This pharmacy is in a grocery store. When I walked in I wondered about going home because they seemed to be so busy. There were no vacant chairs, not much of a problem because I was happy to walk some more inside, but how long to wait? At the desk she said they could probably do it, but she would have to ask the pharmacist. I wondered if I should wait a month, but she did not think that would help.  It was decided to go ahead. The wait was quite long, but by the time I was done, all the rest of the people had gone. The pharmacist even spent a bit of time visiting with me. I had filled out the questionnaire, but he told me that there is a national vaccine site and he could see on there that I had had the Covid as well as the other shots on my little yellow card. That yellow card goes back to 2001. “Oh we are being kept track of in many ways.” I exclaimed.

 

I had not known about this, but now I wonder what else is known about me? Do they know I like broccoli?

 

 

He also told me that neither shot usually causes any repercussions after, but having these two together might make a difference. Just a warning there so I could be prepared, but not concerned.
