Bees do that to me too, but I didn't even think to mention it. After my first Pfizer shot, I told DH it felt like I had been stung by a bee. That sensation only lasted a couple minutes. I ended up with a good sized bruise & knot underneath the skin. Both are still there, but they're fading. Today was our second shot. This one didn't give me the bee sting sensation. We're only 6 1/2 hours out, so it's yet to be determine what type of side effects we'll have. DH says he can see a little bruising around the injection site, but there's no knot. At least, not yet.Just got my vaccine. No real pain from the injection. Because I have reactions to bee stings (I swell up like a ballon) I am having to wait 30 minutes vs 15 minutes. This is not something I’ve heard before. Lucky me. I’m kind of glad that I didn’t know in advance because it may have dissuaded me.
