She also now spaces her injections, and has no further problem.
Some patients seem fine with both, and others not.
As a personal opinion, I think a week or so between injections is the way to go.

Makes sense to me to spread them by a week or so since many people, myself included, experience fatigue the day after a shot. I also try to get Covid shots in the same arm, as it was shown to generate stronger immune response according to some studies.
COVID shots in same arm may elicit better immune response | CIDRAP
