Sweats over night. Next morning still felt achy and low grade temperature all day. Last night, chills. This morning feeling MUCH better. Still a slight temperature but coming down. Everyone is different but from what I am reading, it means the immune system is kicking in. A good thing !!! Just another perspective.
From what I'm hearing and reading about the side effects is that younger people have more side effects than the older folks. That is because younger people have stronger immune systems. If you are an older person and have a "kick ass" side effect from the vaccine, celebrate that you have the immune system of a younger person.
