Hello @specialsister‍, thank you for opening this discussion. I'm glad to hear you had a positive experience with the vaccine! emoticon cute

Hi everyone, 

Have you had your COVID-19 vaccine yet? If so, can you tell us about it? Did you have any side effects? Which vaccine did you receive? For those of you who haven't had it yet, are you planning to? Has your doctor or endocrinologist given you any advice on it?

Hi I got my shots and no side effects just pain in the arm and tired. My diabetes doctor said she thinks I should get it.

I got the J&J with no problems. For me I'd rather risk minor side effects than get COVID with my mess of diabetes.
