Second dose AZ side effects worse??

[mummybean84]

Hi

Just wondering if anyone who had side effects from their first dose of AZ, and now had the second dose, can tell me if the side effects were worse/different second time round. I had my first dose of AZ at the same time as my husband. He was absolutely fine, not even a sore arm. I was wiped out for 2 days and not right for about a week. I’m not exaggerating when I say I felt horrible. My Daughter is 10 and only on one other occasion (when we all had flu) have I ever taken to bed for an entire day. I know having the second dose is important but just want to know what to expect.

I was very tired and had a slight headache with my first dose. Had my second on Friday. Saturday I felt tired and quite dizzy (hadn't had that the first time but DH did). Yesterday I felt fine but this morning I felt very dizzy, up until lunchtime. Very bizarre!

I felt a bit rough for about 36 hrs after my first AZ jab, but hardly any reaction after my second on Saturday. I did feel a bit more tired on Sunday but we had a busy weekend so it could have been that.

First dose, I felt like I had the flu and was exhausted for 24 hours and a sore arm for a week.
Second dose, absolutely fine, slightly sore arm for 24 hours.
I am 39 and no health issues for info.

Rough as fuck after the 1st dose. 2nd sore arm and that's about it.

I felt pretty bad after my first one, and just a slightly sore arm after the second.

No side effects at all with 1st

Blinding headache that came on after 4 days - ended up overnight in hospital getting tested for clots.

Was fine, just a headache though.

Felt poorly for 24hrs after the 1st jab. Had my 2nd AZ jab on Friday and am delighted to report no issues at all, other than a tiny red mark on my arm. I feel fine.
So glad and grateful to have had it.

1st tired and headachy for a day or two and sore arm. 2nd sore arm only.

I was really ill too after first one but just for 24 hours. Second one next weekend and really don't fancy a repeat so fingers crossed.

I'm really intrigued why some get worse side effects, does it relate to who would have experienced covid worse ?

No one else I know had any side effects

Op my second as well soon.

Good luck with it!

My DH was very bad for 12 hours after first (second 12 hours then OK) and with second was just sleepy otherwise fine. So much better for him and he also may have been tired anyway.

I had bad side effects after first but not had second yet but was a bit reassured seeing him as I had the same bad flu type symptoms for 12 hours but then mine continued with night sweats and aches and pains, itchy arms and red rash down both arms.
