Anyone had negative reaction to RSV vaccine?

Hi @merpreb , you mention "...compared to the Covid vaccine.....". I am just wondering your experience with the Covid vaccine? Each time my reaction seems worse (not allergic symptoms), but 4-6 days of fever, chills, horrible muscle aches & weakness, bone pain, bad headache - do you get this horrible reaction? Makes me not want to get my shingles shots or another Covid shot ever & wondering why I react so strongly - is something whacko in my immune system! Just wondering if your experience is similar & your thoughts. (I have idiopathic bronchiectasis & MAC infection, so I want to keep lungs healthy as possible but UGH with my apparent vaccine sensitivity!)

I visialize my immune system huffing and puffing from working so hard!! I have RA and take immunosuppressants for it. So I’m never sure how much of a response my immune system mounted. When it’s a doozy, I prefer to believe that means a robust response. 🙂

@shooei- Hi! I have the same reaction as you do.
The vaccines and boosters will keep you out of the hospital and prevent you from dying. I don't like them, but a few days of being ill rather than COVID is a simple choice for me.
I take Tylenol and Advil before I get my shots, and it helps shorten how severe my reaction will be.
Have you taken something to help your side effects?
