Post Pfizer headache

Had my second dose of Pfizer yesterday and I have the worst headache today. Paracetamol not touching it. Feels like ridiculous pressure in my head, face and ears. Also have a dodgy stomach and generally tired and achy. Did anyone else get this and how long did it last?
I got the lymph node swelling for two weeks after the first one so was hoping it wouldn't be as bad this time but this headache is horrible. Glad I didn't have the AZ one otherwise I'd be shitting myself!

Hi, I had my second Pfizer jab on Sunday and been feeling crap all day. Headache, nauseated, achy, tired

But also worried as DDs nursery have a case dating back to last week so DD self isolating but I’m worried my feeling crap is now actual Covid. Even though the symptoms I have are not Covid symptoms. Going to do a lateral flow test.

Be good to hear other’s experience

I had the same on my first Pfizer, jab was at 7pm, woke up the next day with the headache, slept most of that day and the following day until 12 when I woke up feeling brand new!

2nd one at same time last night and so far feel fine

I wish I could have slept it off. Had to enlist the help of grandma today as I couldn't face cleaning the kitchen as well as doing school runs, cooking, laundry etc. Absolutely knackered now.
