Symptom narrative

I received the vaccine on Wednesday and on Sunday started noticing small red bumps on the torso and back. They became itchy and turned into full blown hives by that night. It's Monday and they have become larger and more widespread. I also experienced headaches, chills and body aches but these are normal side effects. The injection site remained red and very sore 5 days in which is not typical. Can't tell duration of hives as I am in the middle of it.
