Do not freak out if you think you are having a seizure, it is just the chills anf flu-like symptoms...it might not happen to you but be prepared if it does.

Do not plan on doing anything the day after in case you get these side effects.

Hope it works for you, without the flu/hangover part.
Thanks!
I'm actually at work now. I took half a dose yesterday, so that may be why I tolerated it so well. I'll work up to 3/4 next week, then a full dose the next week.
I took Advil every 4 hours after the shot, and it worked really well for me. Never even had a fever.
Thanks everyone for your advice and well-wishes!
