Symptom narrative

Event occurred approximately 8 hours after receiving my 3rd Moderna (booster) shot. A few hours after receiving the shot I started feeling unwell like I was coming down with the flu, then by 8:00 PM that same day I felt like I was freezing cold and sweating in bed, developed a fever of 102, every muscle in my body was tense and was rigid like I had tetanus, and the body pain was so intense that I did not sleep for 24 hours. These symptoms subsided after 48 hours, but my entire body was sore for days afterwards from the severe muscle rigidity. I was also diagnosed with asthma and an autoimmune disorder later but I am unsure if this is a delayed side-affect of the Covid booster or not.
