Free text: Today, (next day after 4p vax) I had "brain fog" - just feeling like I wasn't tracking well - until about mid-afternoon (but I had had caffeine so that might have created false alertness). Also, within about 4h of the vaccine, I started to have a lot of flatulence. That's not usual for me and I didn't have any unusual foods. It was more funny than anything (they were loud!) but I thought I'd report it in case this is something others are finding.
