Yesterday I got my first anti-pneumonia shot.
Today I can't stop coughing- feels like I'm a 20 year smoker.

Autumn coincidence, or trouble? :shrug:

I sure as hell hope it's coincidence.

1. My dear Prisoner_Number_Six...
That's just coincidence, sweetie...

It's just like the flu shot...it cannot give you pneumonia...

Is there extra crap in the atmosphere?

Feel better!

:hug:

2. Yeah, I know it's coincidence.
The vaccine is dead, not live. They told me before they shot me- due to my arthritis treatment they must be careful, because it somewhat suppresses my immune system.

I just like to whine. :evilgrin:

3. Would you like some cheese with your whine, baby?
I live to serve, you know! :evilgrin:

4. Smoky cheddar, if you please.
Goes great with ANY whine. :toast:

5. I had one five years ago and I haven't been sick since!
I didn't get sick from the shot either.

Maybe you have allergies? Or maybe...you were exposed

to a cold before the shot and it's just now kicking in?

That seems more likely! I hope you feel better soon!

Drink lots of water, wash your hands and get some rest.

6. I love getting the pneumonia vaccine.
I used to get pneumonia almost every year in December. After I started getting the vaccine I haven't had pneumonia even once.
:woohoo:

I hope your cough is just a coincidence, and I hope it passes quickly.

Be well.
