Updated boosters could be available as early as next week. Kind of surprising. I thought it was an October eta

I'm 100% getting mine because I haven't been sick with covid and I like my winning streak.
Does joe average care anymore? Seems like a good sign that people are starting not to give a f, but also a bad sign that people are becoming complacent.
I'm getting the booster.
Had Delta which tried to kill me before shots were out.
Have not had Omnicron yet.
Only DOG knows why that is.
A jab is easy compared to the shit I went through and still deal with today.
Dude get a sleep study immediately. I’m new to this thread - but reading the last few pages you need to look into it. I’m not a doctor but I have apnea couldn’t tell you which kind but once I got a cpap my life changed. Game changer…Quote:

Don’t mean to derail the thread but my doc mentioned I should get a sleep study done. What symptoms did you have before getting the study done?Quote:

Your body is too busy trying to stay alive because you stop breathing intermittently all night.
It takes a while getting used to it for sure but everything has changed for better. I actually like yo sleep now! If there’s even a chance you think you have sleep apnea look into it.
On topic :
Day 2 of paxlovid. Feels like a good old fashioned head cold right now hoping it’s a quick one..Certain this is second bout for me, very sure I had it in early Jan 20. But it wasn’t here yet…. Riiiiight.
FDA approved the new multivariant boosters from Moderna and Pfizer..
Other commonalities that Aldo didn't mention are neck size over 17", deep chest, restless leg syndrome, and smoking.Quote:

I'm on day 5 (counting the CDC way) of Covid, after 3 shots of Pfizer vaccine, and feeling OK. Most of the head cold symptoms have even subsided - still a moderate sore throat and some sniffles, but that's about it. I can take a deep breath without coughing (couldn't do that two days ago).
Didn't take paxlovid, but googled it. Side effects sounded like the same symptoms as covid but with added metallic taste, nausea, and possibly diarrhea, so I figured I'd just ride it out.
I certainly feel 30... most of the time... :cool:Quote:

And BTW, are you sure you don't snore?
LOL! No I'm just saying I understand and can sympathize with health issues that rob you of a good night's sleep. No idea if I snore. Cats have never complained.Quote:

Day 0 felt like shit all day had a low fever 99-100.5. Cough came in , aches pains you name it. Took pax that night
Day 1 - cough there but aches better almost no fever
Day 2 - cough ( not going anywhere anytime soon ). No fever feel better
Day 3 - aside from no vice and cough feel ok
Definitely feel like I’ve been standing at a metal lathe with my mouth open! Stomach also sorta fucked . We’ll see. As a small business owner I need to be back at it asap I can’t afford down time -that pushed my decision to pax it.
Not snoring though!
If you did snore they would lie on your face until you stopped.Quote:

I hope you keep feeling better. Be aware that you still may be contagious at day 3/4.Quote:

Scheduled for Moderna bivalent vaccine next Friday and flu shot. Will be a couple three days short of 4 months out from my 4th booster.

That's what I love about these menopausal girls, man. I get older, they stay the same age.

Can you guys take the menopausal wife trade in talk to gear swap? Or to the bitcoin thread if you can't yet afford to trade down to the high maintenance 25 year old who won't even admit she loves lesbian porn yet.
TIA.

Given the climate in Hollywood with the "me too" movement I'm surprised he doesn't get more push back for treating women like a car that's just gone out of warranty. It's objectifying and humiliating. The guy's a cad and he's not even good looking or in great shape (to judge him by his own standards).Quote:

Not so severe this time, but more symptoms, runny nose, upper respiratory congestion, headache, fever, body aches, diarrhea, loss of energy.
Doc put me on Paxlovid, and in 24 hours, most all of the symptoms are gone.
So, now at the office working all night to get caught up so I can be in quarantine from the office staff.
Damn. Sorry you’re sick again. Our work culture sucks.
Wife made the mistake, believed the receptionist at the local clinic, and waited an hour to find out they didn’t have the new bivalent vax yet. Then she found out it was at least an hour drive to get to a drug store that had stock.
Got the bivalent covid and quad strain flu today. The front side of my covid card is overflowed now. She went below the bottom line instead of the back.
I think this is the one that turns me zombie.

Brains.
Wife’s getting bivalent now. Kids tomorrow. Me probably next week. The vax finally made it up the hill to my area pharmacies.
Brains.
My arm is sore as fuck this morning from 5th shot... bivalent Moderna/Flu. Like when I had the first Moderna. I think sore arm decreased with each shot, 4th shot was Pfizer and my arm was barely sore at all.
Otherwise, maybe slightly increased joint stiffness but no other side effects at all.
All I am doing today is watching youth soccer a drinking coffee anyway.
Thinking I maybe got covid again. Symptoms started Monday after a bunch of concerts in Denver from Thurs to Sunday. Two tests negative so far but I repeatedly tested negative when I had it in January and my roommate repeatedly tested positive. We had same exact symptoms starting at the same time lasting about 10 days. Who knows. Hopefully this is just a cold/flu this time. My lungs were already beat up and now they are really not happy. Painful unproductive cough, killer headache.
GF who I have been living with last month or so still has no symptoms.
I'm planning to get the booster, plus my second shingles vax, plus my flu shot, all at once. That's gonna kick my ass.
Get better WG!
Gonna go get the new juice next week if I avoid Covid until then.
