I got the HPV vaccine

I had been meaning to do this for a long time and finally got around to it. It’s not free for people in my age group but it turns out my insurance from work covered the cost and I just paid an injection fee.

Hehe, first person I get to talk to who doesn’t respond to a good amount of morphine. (Unless they do drugs on a regular basis.) But yeah my story ended kinda the same way. Got my tonsils removed. And got Novamin / metamizole(?) as a painkiller. It’s popular here. Took the max dose for a day and most I got was a headache, and still a good amount of pain. Talked to the doctor and switched to Ibuprofen and Paracetamol. That did the job. Now I just tell them about my prior experiences. And luckily I don’t have a lot of pain or maladies anyway, so I’m generally fine without pain meds. Unless there’s some other reason to take them, like fever. And I got some opioid once after the surgery. That felt funny and did away with the pain immediately. But I didn’t really enjoy it. I kinda dislike dizziness and my brain feeling off.
