Symptom narrative

After I had my vaccine, I went home and felt so tired that I had to take a nap. I never nap during the day. The next morning, as I was getting into the shower, I noticed a bright red rash on the trunk of my body (chest, abdomen, back and lower back). I felt extremely tired in spite of getting over 8 hours of sleep the night before. I ended up sleeping most of the day. The rash continued to spread up to my neck and into my arm pits. Before I went to bed, I took a Benadryl tablet, hoping it would clear up the rash. The next morning, the rash was even worse. Bright red, like a sunburn. I took Benadryl that night and the following night. On the 4th day after my vaccine, the rash started to subside. It is now completely gone. I have always kept current with covid vaccines, getting boosters every six months. Most of my prior vaccines were manufactured by Pfizer. I got the Spikevax vaccine because the FDA says it is the most effective for people my age. I'm afraid to get another Spikevax vaccine.
