Moderna vaccine side effects

Hi, just wondering who else has had Moderna vaccine and if you had aches and pains how bad were they and how long did they last? My first jab was a breeze, had my second jab yesterday morning and still feel like I’ve been run over by a bus. I normally have a high pain threshold but this has just really wiped me out.

Hi OP. I was exactly the same as you. First jab fine, second I felt like I'd been hit by a bus. Good news is that it only lasted 24 hours though. Hope you feel better soon.

I recently had my second jab and felt absolutely awful the next day. I had aches and stabbing type pains all over. However, it did only last about 24 hours

Second definitely worse, but short lived.

Hi thanks, yes I hope so too, was really surprised how bad it is. Will be worth it though.

So, it’s 24 hours since I had my jab and I’m starting to feel a bit more human which is a relief as we are so busy at work at the moment with people off on holiday etc Smile

I was the same as you. Lasted about 4 days

Both first and second jab affected me for about 24 hours and my arm hurt a little longer than that. You can take paracetamol for the side effects if you need to, and keep drinking plenty of water.
