Second shot....

Miss Croft, you've gone MIA since Saturday. Is everything ok?
I've heard a lot of stories of adverse reactions to the 2nd shot. I hope Miss Croft is doing ok.

I was in the hospital. My sodium and potassium levels dropped. 🙁
I was wondering why you went MIA. Are the sodium and potassium issues a direct result of the 2nd shot? Are they now back up to normal levels? I eat bananas and peaches to get my potassium.

Weird question: Can the 2nd shot cause soreness in the gums? Yeah, it happened to me but I don't know if the sore gums are caused by the 2nd shot (or too much DATY, LOL).

By your statement I can see you don't know what is in the know what is in the Phizer vaccine.
Hint: one of the ingredients is actually used to treat people with low potassium levels.

Wow that's pretty scary. Low sodium and potassium levels can have very serious consequences. I hope you are feeling better.
 
I eat a banana almost every day and I LOVE salty foods. That's why it makes no sense to me.
Did they say it was vaccine related? Probably not. Not to say it was not, I just doubt they would tell you.

I’m glad you are out and hopefully feeling better.

Actually contrary to popular opinion banana's aren't that high in potassium.

Check out this list with avocado's leading the charge.


Sounds to me that you were severely dehydrated....

Yes, I eat ALL of the foods on that list. I love avocadoes.

I may very well have been dehydrated. I was very hot and sweating, not drinking enough water and not eating much for a few days. 🙁 I won't make that mistake again.

Totally 100% non-medical or scientific and purely anecdotal experiences of myself, my co-workers, family and friends was that people who really slammed liquids, including some electrolytes fared better than those who did not.

I had a ‘can’t miss’ meeting the day after my second round of Pfizer and took the advice of my circles to double my fluids intake (at-least), and was glad I did.

The next day was akin to a light to moderate hangover for me, which was taken care of with some collaborative effects of Pedialyte, ibuprofen, acetaminophen. I was about 75% fine by noon, and had a normal work out after work.

The guys I know who were laid up were in that way for a day, and all of them would say they either drank less water or as much as usual, and did nothing to treat their fevers.

A lesson learned....I as well as the members are happy that you are okay.
