Moderna - dizzy, headaches and blurred vision

6 replies

I got my first moderna jab 2 weeks ago and ever since I've had a headache everyday, some worse than others and mild blurred vision and sometimes a feel of being a little dizzy like when you've had s couple drinks (minus the tipsy feeling of course).

I am also 8 weeks postpartum so not sure if that could come into it with hormones etc causing the headaches.

Has anybody else had this and should I be concerned?

You really should see your GP with those types of symptoms. Even if others have had similar symptoms you need to get yours checked out

I’d contact the number it tells you on the advice note they give you or phone nhs24 or see the GP.

I wouldn’t just leave it. It could be something easily resolved that’s not related, like childbirth or anaemia or something.

Congrats on your new baby.

I’d get that checked out.

I had first Moderna vaccine at 3 weeks PP and was fine, sore arm but that was it.

I'd speak to the GP

You should certainly get checked out, I guess it possibly could be low iron if you're 8 weeks postpartum?

Anecdotally, I felt very dizzy and a bit 'off' for 3.5 weeks after my first Pfizer and then the same feeling again for 2 weeks after the second! The dizziness at times felt like being on a boat! Horrid!

Hope you feel better soon Flowers

I’m double-jabbed with Modena and felt abit rough after the second jab ( for a couple of days). As PP’s have advised, I’d ask your doctor about it. I also had low iron during my pregnancies and post-partum, felt dizzy and nearly fainted a couple of times. That might be the cause. 💐
