I had my pfizer Saturday morning. So far I've had a sore arm but that's going now. I felt a little lightheaded earlier but not sure it's a symptom om as it isn't mentioned? I'm absolutely fatigued today but that's not unusual for me.

Yes I was quite light-headed. I put it down to the tiredness that I felt and not eating much. I had migraine headache too. Have u slept ok on your sore arm?

Thanks for replying. Yes slept okay. I don't always get much sleep with my toddler getting in bed with me anyway.
I have had slight head pains that last literally seconds so not bothered by those.

You’ll be ok 🙂 I was quite rough off my first. It all stemmed from being extremely exhausted. I’m jealous that u managed to sleep on THAT sore arm! Made a point of resting/sleeping/eating when I got the second and was much, much better then. Look after yourself x

Thanks, I have since been feeling a bit faint and nauseous so I've eaten something and trying to get lots of fluid in. Asked my partner to take a half day for the kids. Not sure if it's related.

It might be but may not be. I have to say, after my Pfizer I was hyper alert to any twitch I felt!!

But overall I think I got away with a sore arm

WuhanClanAintNothingToFuckWith · 07/06/2021 10:18

Yes same as me! I was faint and felt a bit sick. So I didn’t eat or drink enough. You’re looking after a toddler and having slightly broken sleep. It will be that. And we never drink enough do we (water that is 😂) A lot of people saying you feel worse of the second Pfizer than the first, but I was the complete opposite!? Also worried my sick about it, got grumpy and depressed. Doh x

Thanks all, I've slept a lot but could go on. I need to pick kids up soon.
I've tried getting through to gp as I am worried but can't get through.
If I had it yesterday if understand but starting two days later I'm not sure that's normal.

Ok I’ll be honest, was rough for a week. Pain spread to neck, shoulder and back. Couldn’t sleep (insomniac anyway) or move properly. Migraines with lightening flashes (but I’m quite prone to them too) Didn’t eat/drink well due to it. Then panicked (I’m prone to that too) got palpitations. Looking back be ain fog and tiredness lasted couple of weeks. I absolutely fine now. I think u will be too. Get some support with your kids if u can 🙂

You need to sleep/rest x

Wildginger · 07/06/2021 15:02

Me too! Didn’t help that everyone else was fine and thought I was being mard so I couldn’t stop and rest. That’s what you have to do
