I had my second jab yesterday. No side effects except sore arm after the first.
About ten hours after I had it a had a very sudden attack of extreme nausea and diarrhoea. I wasn’t actually sick but was dry heaving for ages. Chills and feeling a bit light headed. A few hours later it went.

Has anyone else experienced this??

My mum had the second Pfizer jab a few weeks ago. She had D&V and cramps for 14 days after the second vaccine -literally for the 2 weeks. She was horrified: hadn't expected that reaction at all. She had to contact gp and have tests.

1st - no reaction

2nd fine first 24hours. Then hot ( no temp) restless, churning stomach, diarrhoea and headache for about 12hours.

First jab I just had a really sore arm. I could hardly move it for the first 12 hours or so. No other effects though.

Second jab I didn't have much of a sore arm at all. Just felt a bit bruised when I moved it. About 6 hours after the jab I noticed a rash on both inner thighs that was only blanching in some areas. Some of the spots didn't blanch. I went in to a&e to get checked out. Had bloods done but came back clear. The rash has faded to almost nothing now about 10 days later but is still slightly there.

I didn't feel any other symptoms though.

My dad's 73 he's had 2 doses of Pfizer no issues at all.

I had my second Pfizer a couple weeks ago.

Mostly fine after the first, really sore arm and a bit fuzzy for a day or two but OK.

After the second felt absolutely fine, then the next day, was out for a walk and suddenly my legs felt so heavy and achy. Got home had chills, couldn't get warm and felt drained. A bit like when you've a bad cold. Popped off to bed by 730, straight asleep, woke at 7 the next morning, bright as a button. Sore arm still but otherwise absolutely fine.

Second dose 24 hours ago. very sore arm and feeling tired. Then had very restless night. This morning arm less painful and otherwise a bit tired after my broken night's sleep.
