I feel absolutely dreadful.

I've had Pfizer for all three, and I had my booster on Monday. Started feeling ropey this afternoon Sad

AZ for first two felt fluey after both but slept it off. Had Pfizer booster on Tuesday and still in bed. Seriously unwell yesterday,.enough to know there won't be a fourth one for me! Having said that my old mum was fine!

Literally had my booster this morning. Got lots of jobs done as soon as I got home. Now feeling ropey...sore arm, aching joints, feel tired, starting a headache. I just feel lethargic and dreading going in to work tomorrow.
I had the moderna jab.

Wildernesstips · 18/11/2021 19:14

Had mine yesterday lunchtime (Moderna). Woke in night with chills, fever, aches etc. Just about feeling ok now, but did take day off sick as have felt so bad. Previously had 2 AZ (felt rough in night with first).

Slightly sore arm for about a day. No other side effects. I had AZ for the first two jabs and Pfizer booster.

Nanasueathome · 18/11/2021 19:16

I had AZ for first two
Headache after first jab
Really tired and exhausted after second
Pfizer booster last Friday. No effects whatsoever. Not even a sore arm

mynameiscalypso · 18/11/2021 19:17

I felt awful for 24 hours after my first Pfizer jab, nothing after second or third

Twitchynose · 18/11/2021 19:20

First 2 were AZ - felt grotty after first one and vomiting after 2nd. Pfizer booster, arm ached and slight nausea for a couple of hours, but other than that absolutely fine!

Dh and I had moderna as our boosters on Sunday.
We both had Pfizer for the other two doses.

After Pfizer dose 1 I got a lump under my arm (gland I assume) and felt a little bit off, but nothing that stopped me. Second one was no issues. Dh had no issues with either.

Moderna booster:
We both felt the booster and had a sore arm, more so than with the other two. This could well be the vaccinator, rather than the vaccine itself - who knows??
Monday, I felt a bit rubbish. Very sore 'dead' arm and a headache lasting all day and into the evening. Much better by Tuesday.
Dh was fine Monday but has felt rubbish Tuesday/Wednesday - shivering, aches and chills (flu like symptoms) He appears fine today.

No idea if they were side effects, or we'd both picked up a virus just before the boosters and it was that. It wasn't covid - we both tested a couple of times and they were negative.

JustOneMoreStep · 18/11/2021 19:42

No symptoms after first 2 Pfizer. Had moderna for the booster and had an ache/heavy arm for a couple of days after but no other issues.

Thanks. No way to tell then. Thanks.

AZ first two, moderna booster. No problems at all.

ajandjjmum · 18/11/2021 20:18

All three of mine were Pfizer, but after the booster I didn't even have a sore arm. Felt absolutely fine.

DH had his Pfizer booster on Friday after the initial 2 AZ. Again, he's been fine.

HolidayTime2021 · 18/11/2021 20:22

Turned up for pzifer on Friday -turned away due to computer error- apparently at least 50 at 1 centre

Came back yesterday and they only had moderna. Totally shit. I am in bed with temp of 39.5 and nausea.

barberousbarbara · 18/11/2021 21:09

I had AZ for the first two and only experienced 24 hours of tiredness after the first one. My booster was Pfizer and, other than a sore arm, I was fine. I was nervous how I'd be as I'm having chemotherapy but it's been ok.

charabanctrip · 18/11/2021 21:33

Astra Zenica, just a sore arm.

Pfizer booster the other day, very sore arm, aches everywhere and awful tiredness for about two days.

badlydrawnbear · 18/11/2021 22:01

Absolutely fine 32hrs later. My arm hurts and I am tired but I am tired because I haven’t slept for more than a few hours in 9 weeks. All 3 vaccines were Pfizer.

WitchDancer · 18/11/2021 22:09

I had mine on Monday morning and then went to work. I made it through the day but felt increasingly flu like throughout the day. Tuesday and yesterday were awful with headache and wiped out. Today I'm a little better but still feel like I could sleep for a week 😔
