Second Shingles Shot Side Affects

 Yesterday afternoon I went in to get my second shingles vaccine in a two-series administration.  The shot


itself was painless, but later in the day, I started to feel a little soreness in the injection site.  Nothing major.  But this morning I felt some pretty serious body aches but went to the pool anyway.  Here's what I did:

Warmup: 500

  • 300 Easy
  • 200 Kick with fins
Main Set: 2100 yards 
  • 8 x 50's free fast on 1:00 desc 1-4 (:42, :37, :34, :33)
  • 6 x 100's Pull Build per 25 on 2:00 (Got 1:17 on all)
  • 4 x 200's IM on 5:00 
    • At this point, I was feeling especially lethargic and sore. 
  • 2 x 400's Kick 1st, Choice on 2nd.  
    • However, I only made it through 300 yards of the first of the two sets.  I realized that I was going downhill in a major way.  I plan to actually get in the water with the Northridge swim team this afternoon to go over some technique, so I will get a few more yards today.  
    • I also had a terrible night's sleep last night thanks to the dogs. I put them outside to pee at 1:30 a.m., but I couldn't get back to sleep until around 4 a.m. I really need to take a sleeping pill every single night. It's not worth the insomnia I experience without it.  
Total: 2,600 yards
