Thank you for taking the time out to comment when you have stuff going on! This year seems to be hard on a lot of people - I had COVID earlier this year (before vaccines became available) and it was terrible. 2021 isn't much better than 2020, it seems.
Sorry to hear you caught it, and I hope you won't get any of the aftereffects that often seem to come with the disease. I myself have managed to avoid getting infected, and in fact got vaccinated in May, with the Pfizer vaccine. I breezed through that as well - no side effects barring slight soreness at the vaxxination site. My brother got vaxxinated at around the same time with the Moderna vaccine, but was flattened for that weekend by flu-like side effects.
I actually am a COVID long-hauler and I still have some problems from it months later, like more intense chronic fatigue and neurological issues (my ADHD is the worst it's ever been, which I hear is a thing that can happen, and it's been like this since I had COVID so I think this is probably the new normal). It sucks. My roommate (Detergent on A03) had a less severe case of COVID (I had walking pneumonia) but she's also having long-term symptoms so between the two of us we have, like, .03 spoons, lol.
I am glad to know you've been vaccinated and that you didn't have bad side effects.
From what I've read about it, long Covid sounds very much Not Fun. I am really happy to have avoided getting the virus myself - I have generally good health, and rarely get sick, and then usually not very much so. I like to say that my immune system does its job efficiently, but is laid-back about it for the most part. (I have never had adverse effects to vaccinations, but I do have allergies. Not severe ones, fortunately.)
