Beginning around 3/12/2025, about 13-14 days after receiving the vaccine and expecting its side-effects to be concluded, I developed a mild warm feeling in the skin of my chest, arms, stomach. This all occurred with ZERO flu-like symptoms except for watery eyes. I was not feeling like I was truly ill, just hot and temperature tests revealed my internal temp was normal. Over the course of that day, a measles like rash appeared on my chest with some extending above the neck line but not to the face. I also began to experience arthritis like joint pain. As the days went on, the rash spread downward to my stomach, flank, back, thighs, arms, calves and even to my ankles. The joint pain (mild in nature) continued. After nearly 5 days, the rash on the chest began to fade and has been fading in the order it appeared. Now, on 3/18/2025, a full 6 days after the rash appeared, most of it has disappeared with a little left on the legs and some here and there. However, my left index finger has joint pain in the morning like it has stiffened up (arthritis like) and some gout, both of which have eased over the course of the day today 3/18/2025. Overall, the side-effects appear to be fading today. I am marking "recovered" below because I believe I have recovered.

On 3/13/2025, I was concerned about the rash so I went to a different office with urgent care and the doctor there confirmed they believed these were side effects. At the time, the rash was only visible on my chest. After leaving there, the rash spread much more widely.
