Community Covid-19 Check-in Post!
Monday, March 23, 2020 by Island Dog | Discussion: Everything Else
This is certainly an interesting time right now. I know many of us around the world are social distancing, self-quarantining, or whatever phrase you are using for it.
So let's take a moment and check-in here and let the community know how you're doing during all this.

Hey everyone! I'm 2 weeks away from my second vaccination. YAY! Didn't even feel the first one, and had no side effects at all except the sore arm for a day. (I had the Pfizer shot). The reason I'm posting here is because I'm happy to have survived this pandemic! I really didn't think I would. I was certain Covid would kill me if I got it, and I can't believe I managed to escape it as my kids were constantly being sent home from school to self-isolate after coming into contact with carriers!
Anyway, I'm still here. my health isn't brilliant but I should survive a little longer. 
Maybe I should skin something to celebrate not being dead?
Take care everyone.......

I got both vaccination shots back in March/April. Only side affect was in the second shot. I felt pain in my muscles as if I had worked out in the gym. After a couple days and some Tylenol , I was just fine.

PS - My vaccine was produced by Pfizer.

Geno here; still 86 and living in Senior Apartments in Camas, WA. Got both shots at the VA and felt secure. Then suddenly, I got a kidney disease called Nephrotic Syndrome............from taking asprin. Just got through with 8 months of horrendous treatments and I am now in remission. Was worried about Covid, just like everyone else, and wham, out of left field......kidney. Just goes to show ya; LIFE CAN BE DANGEROUS TO YOU HEALTH.....!.

LIFE CAN BE DANGEROUS TO YOU HEALTH.....!.
It sure can! I had another fall last Friday [30.04.21] and suffered damage to my right shoulder/upper chest area. I was fumbling around in the dark to turn my bedside lamp on when I lost my balance and landed awkwardly on my right elbow... and geez, didn't it hurt.... and then some. Trouble is, since I was diagnosed with vertigo and diabetes, my balance hasn't been the greatest at the best of times, but in the dark it's even worse because I often can't see anything to get my bearings, etc.
Thing is, though I landed firstly on my elbow, my arm was pushed upward and probably dislocated my shoulder as well as injure my collarbone. I say that because the actual shoulder joint is quite sore. Luckily it went straight back in, but it's the collarbone area that's causing the greatest pain and discomfort. I don't think anything is broken, it feels more like soft tissue damage and it may be that I have torn some ligaments and muscle during the fall.
If it doesn't improve by Monday [10.05.21] I shall go to my doctor to get it properly assessed, just in case the damage is more serious than I first thought.

I have some very low light LEDs at strategic locations to keep me oriented when I move around at night.

We usually have some low-light LEDs set up to help with night movements, but we recently moved and thus far have not been able to access the box they're packed in. I certainly won't be able to locate them while struggling with this pain, but I have a couple of housemates looking for them for me.
It's one of the most niggling and uncomfortable injuries I've ever had. I can't cough, sneeze or fart without the pain reaching a 7 or 8 out of 10. While I'm using my left arm/hand to do any lifting and most tasks, it still aggravates the injury on the right.
