Pfizer double jabees, which one had most side effects?

[Hodan85]

I have my second Pfizer jab shortly and we're on holiday the next day, so just wondering what people's experience of side effects after their second jab, compared to first were? I realise it varies between people, but thought I'd do a little straw poll!

I had no/very little side effects after first jab.

TIA

No side effects with either - had Pfizer

First for me, lingering tiredness for about a week, like a mild hangover. Similar second time around but less obvious.

I had lingering headaches for a couple of weeks after both.

I had no side effects with either dose, except a slightly sore arm that lasted 24hrs but this is normal with any vaccination. Enjoy your holiday x

Nothing after the first. Second I had unck trollope shakes and hot sweats but freezing cold. Also ached like crazy. Started about 16 hours after the jab but only lasted about 5 hours then perfectly fine.

Uncontrollable shakes*

I felt dreadful after the first but just a little tired after the second. I had covid two months before my first jab though, which could have an impact on how I felt.

I felt dreadful after the second. Sore arms both times but after jab two I also felt sick, dizzy and exhausted for a couple of days.

Splitting headache after the first, went away with paracetamol. Only symptom after the second was a slight hungover feeling, didn't stop me doing anything.

DH on the other hand had a high temperature after the second and felt terrible for two days. Spent the night on the sofa shivering under a blanket despite our house not dropping under 25°C in August!

Second was worst. First - fatigue. Second mild Covid symptoms for a week.

I felt fine after my first jab but woke in the middle of the night after my second jab with fever, diarrhoea and vomiting. It lasted about two hours then I went back to sleep and felt fine in the morning.

I had a sore arm after the first one but nothing really other than that. The second one, I felt knackered for a few days and the first night I was really unsettled, hot then cold and feeling sick but nothing too major with either.

First jab, felt fine other than a sore arm. Second jab, just about fainted at the clinic then felt pretty rubbish for 24-48 hours. Ds(19) was the same pattern, minus the fainting (fortunately, as we went together and he was driving me home).

My depression was horrific the first few days after the second jab.

Zero side effects for either jab. Did go to bed mega early after both though

I had no side effects other than a sore arm with both. Dh the same

Sore heavy arm after first one for 2/3 days after.

Second very mildly sore arm next day... but barely noticeable.

About a week after my first jab I read that if you move your arm around every now and then after the vaccine it disperses it and then you won't have a sore arm. No idea of this is true or not, or if it's just a coincidence, but I didn't do it after the first vaccine (as I didn't know) but I did do it after the second vaccine and my arm was a lot better!

Really sore very painful arm & horrific headache after the first which lasted a couple of weeks, second jab tender arm bit tired for a day then felt absolutely fine, anecdotally most people I know who had Pfizer the second jab a lot less problematic.

First one fine, just sore arm.
Second one, felt a bit rough next morning but went out for a lunch which was already booked. First time out since places reopened and I was really looking forward to it. Sadly wasn't able to enjoy and went to bed as soon as got home . Slept right through and felt fine again next day .

Sore arm for both. First slightly more so

Sore arm for a couple of days for first one. Tired and a bit nauseous later the same day. Second one, just a slightly sore arm the next day.

Site arm and a bit tired for 12 hours after the first one, just the sire arm after the second. I'm pregnant so tiredness might have been that but I was pleasantly surprised it was only my arm that was unhappy for 48 hours each time.

Sore arm 🤦

I had Pfizer x 2 , husband had AstraZenica x 2. Neither of us had any side effects.

My 80-something parents, 50-something DH and 20-something DCs all had two Pfizer doses and had nothing worse than a sore arm between them.

No after effects whatsoever either jab.
