So, there I was one afternoon—mid Zoom call—when a strange squiggly line drifted across my vision. At first, I thought it was just a smudge on my glasses. Took them off, cleaned them. Nope.

So here’s the thing—I’m one of those people who always gets hit with weird side effects from vaccines. A sore arm? Sure. Fatigue? Expected. But migraines? That was a twist I didn’t see coming.
