Thought I’d escaped side effects

[Sexnotgender]

Had my second Pfizer yesterday afternoon.

Had a stonking headache and sore arm after my first.

Had a very sore arm today but that’s all… until about an hour ago🙄

Now I feel shite. Anyone else have a delayed reaction to Pfizer?

Oh I'm nervous now, I've got mine next week. 1st one was fine just a sore arm

I’m sure it was here that someone posted they tested positive for covid a few days after the vaccine, so if in doubt get tested. Either way look after yourself

Well I’m awake now and don’t feel too bad. Took some ibuprofen last night, had a bath and an early night so hopefully I’ve slept it off. Well, as much sleep as I ever get with a 4 month old baby 🙄

Aw good luck!

Yup, everyone I know who has reacted to Pfizer didn't feel crap until the following day. In most cases it only lasted 24 hrs.

I was really ill after my second Pfizer - apparently it’s common to feel worse after second dose than first. Mainly for me it was exhaustion, nausea / vomiting and painful arm. Lasted about 3 days

I had my second Pfizer on Friday too. I was absolutely wiped out yesterday. I didn’t feel ill, but had no energy and just slept on and off when I could.
I had no side effects after the first one, except a sore arm.
I think it seems to be common after the second dose.

Hopefully you’re through it now. I can’t imagine feeling like this and having such a small baby

There's absolutely nothing to worry about. Didn't they tell you about side effects when you went for your vax?

Yes they did obviously. I assumed I’d get them within 12 hours ish which is what happened last time. I was asking about delayed reaction. Not reaction generally.
