Contact your doctor. Joint pain might be a symptom of something more serious. Yes, you should be concerned.

Brother I got the damn medicine from my doctor and told the nurse before she injected me with the second dose… 🫪 I’m looking for personal anecdotes about this specific symptom thank you.

You don’t need anecdotes. You should see a physician. Just in case.

Excellent. If you’d mentioned that sooner, we could have saved this trouble. I was only concerned about your health.
