Hello
Am due my 2nd Pfizer this week. Am nervous as not many people have had it with 12 week interval.
Would anyone who has had it 12 weeks apart be willing to reassure me.
TIA

Just had my second today - no sore arm but very tired 💤

Paddy1234 · 11/03/2021 20:32

I had my first on December 30th

2nd jab today, 12 weeks to the day. Arm a bit tender, as it was the first time, when I also felt a bit tired and slightly upset tum. Nothing more as yet today though

I had my second last weekend but it was only 5 weeks after my first. I had quite a sore arm this time after nothing at all the first, but I’m not sure if it was down to technique as the jab hurt going in and I didn’t feel it last time. Anyway, it took a couple of days to wear off and it’s fine now.

I had my second Pfizer this week approx 10 weeks after first

No symptoms following either dose other than sore arm for 24 hours

Second jab (12 weeks apart) last week. No side effects. Feeling great, and so relieved

10 weeks here - feel fine apart from slightly sore arm, bit more tired than usual and a mild headache. Still managed a 10 day at work.

Thecazelets · 11/03/2021 21:00

I had my second dose last Thursday (medical student and covid vaccinator.) The first dose just gave me a very heavy arm. The second gave me a mild flu type feeling for about 48 hours. I could still go about my day and went for a run, but it just made me feel a little bit rubbish.

I had my 2nd yesterday afternoon, 7 weeks after the 1st. Had sore arm with first that went 36 hours later. This time, I started to get an achy arm yesterday evening and a mild headache but not bad enough to take anything for. Had a couple of loose-ish BMs too but nothing today. Achy arm has got worse today and I've a slightly runny nose but fine apart from that.

My BIL had his second Pfizer jab last week, 8 weeks after the first one, other than a sore arm he had absolutely no other symptoms with either jab.

Oblomov21 · 12/03/2021 17:38

Not yet. In 2 weeks. Can't wait.

Ok, so had second dose on Saturday- no side effects so far (Wednesday).
Had a day on the sofa on Sunday, and just slept a lot. I don’t know if that helped - maybe?!

Thanks to everyone who posted.
