My vaccinations were nearly 6 months apart. I had a sore arm after the 2nd one, but only for 1 day

Better than getting shingles pain

It's that time of year where I go back to back illnesses for all of autumn I spent three weeks with some chesty thing, had one week reprieve and now am on week two of another cold. Felt like death last week, feel ok this week but can't kick the symptoms.

Surgery on my shoulder last week. Now in a sling, and not allowed to drive for SIX weeks. (Ack!) I'm an old bachelor and I have to say I did not imagine just how difficult living with one useable arm would be. It reaches the point of hilarity at times... "Nope..can't do that either!" Thank goodness for friends is all I can say. And for decent commercial frozen meals. I stocked up on everything, not realising that even chopping vegetables (or opening jars) was going to be so difficult. Bright side? I am catching up on reading I never seemed to have time for. And...napping has entered my life....

Last one we had in hospital was on Ketamine infusion for 5 days
