Of those who have gotten the shot how did you feel? First/second dose? Any physical reactions to your psoriasis?

No issues

I had the Moderna vaccine, plus 2 boosters.

The first shot, felt fatigue for a couple days.

No side effects from the 2 Moderna boosters.

1-1/2 years ago I reacted following second Moderna shot. Had slight chills for two days, followed by feeling out-of-sorts for two days, and that was it - until the following week when I broke out with a quarter-sized spot on each ankle. It slowly grew to more than half of my ankle. I tried a few ointments, bathed with Jason Body Wash, applied Avon's Moisture Therapy Intensive Lotion. They have finally reduced in size, but it's taken so long. I'm hesitant to get a booster. The strange/good thing that has happened is my psoriasis seems to have cleared up quite a bit. I don't know what caused the improvement. I don't take biologics or any other psoriasis meds regularly.

2 Pfizer followed by 3rd Pfizer and then 4th by Moderna. Since flaking and scratching ebb and flow I couldn't identify a significant difference. Did experience slightly sore shoulder on the day after each booster that faded away by the next day. I look for all kinds of things to blame for flares including seasonal weather changes, approaching weather fronts as well as the weave of the cloth in my clothing. I'm in my late 70s and since Alzheimer's has come under recent scrutiny, I view it as a race to see which of the two afflictions comes out on top. (Hint - Psoriasis comes out on top -everywhere). 🎼
