I had my first Covid shot on Monday around noon. 

All went well. At first. I thought I was home free until Thursday night.

Feeling tired, achy and short of breath, I went to bed and woke up with a low grade fever.

It seems side effects can show up much later than the next day, but the nurse says the good news is that this means the shot is working.

Today I was nauseous and the fever was even lower.

None of these things are unbearable, but they do make me wonder what will happen when I get the second shot.
