AZ Second Dose - Side Effects

5 replies

Just wondering if anyone can share how the side effects compared from dose 1 of AZ to dose 2? I have my second dose first thing tomorrow and I am wondering if I should clear by diary for the rest of the day and Thursday.

Following to be nosey. Also if anyone had a reaction to both the jabs or just one (was really ill after my first!)

Yes, wasn't well after my first but was told it was because I have had COVID. Now a bit worried that COVID plus vaccine 1 is going to lead to more severe side effects...

I’d also be interested but have heard that side effects are much milder for the second dose of AZ and that the side effects from the second Pfizer are worse than after the first. I hope it goes well.

I had my second AZ. Side effects were much less for me.
First jab - really painful arm for 5 days, felt rubbish for 1 day then a bit tired for 2 more
Second jab - arm tender for 24 hours, a bit tired for one day.
I had a day off work in bed with the first jab but just yawned on mute through meetings with the second.

I really hope they are less after second for my 19 year old Dd. She had first dose yesterday and was really unwell. High temperature and flu type symptoms. She seems a bit better now but she really scared me through the night.
Poor thing was so happy to be getting it and it has worried us now for the second dose.
