Injection #1 continued

Day 1 after injection: I woke up to instant recognition of the stiffness in my arm. It is always the same after receiving a shot and the fact that I usually sleep with my arm tucked under a pillow probably doesn't help. After moving it around a bit, I was fine. My temp remains 97.5, which means I am either very consistent or my thermometer is questionable. So I checked with our second thermometer, and I am actually consistent. There is no headache, no shortness of breath, no sore throat, and no fatigue. I do have a vague recollection of waking in the middle of the night with cold sweats and throwing off the covers in a panic, but then again I am a post-menopausal woman so this may or may not be related to the shot. So all in all, I am calling this a good morning and shall see how the day proceeds, which is life wrapped up in a nutshell.
