So bad, that if I barely grazed my hair, it would feel like needles in my head. Aspirin wouldn't touch it.

I complained to the Dr and he said "ask for the unenhanced" which I did and no more headaches after.
Dr also said my immune system is likely stronger and is fighting it.

If you don't request it, after age 65 they auto inject the stronger one.

Interesting, I've run into similar before.
I didn't have an issue with the 2 or 3 covid shots that I got, but when I was in college, I got a new measels shot, and I felt like crap (fever, aches, etc...) starting a few hours later and for the rest of that day. I think I've had similar reactions to one or two other shots ,including flu, over the years.
