Has anyone had their booster?

[Florence282]

Just wondering how people were after it? I've got mine this afternoon.

Be prepared for further boosters, practice pulling up your sleeve in the meantime :)

Me. I felt same as I did for the 2nd jab-a bit off with loss of appetite and fatigue.

Sore arm, possibly a bit chilly first night, generally not much to write home about! I asked and got flu and covid done at same time (two jags)

Had mine a couple of weeks ago.
My arm ached for a couple of days afterwards, that was it!

My arm ached snd I had a mild fever and aches snd pains after about 36 hours. Fine by 48 hours. Similar symptoms to my second jab but milder. I’ve had Pfizer x 3.

Thanks everyone. I had my booster and flu jab 2 hours ago and I feel exhausted and achy already. I had no symptoms after my first and mild fatigue the day after my second.

I've got mine booked for Tuesday. Will they mix vaccines or will I get AZ again ?

Everyone is getting either Pfizer or moderna for boosters

Oh. I wasn't allowed Pfizer.

I thought they couldn't mix ?

I had mine two weeks ago at the same time as a flu jab and felt fine. I was also told all the boosters will be Pfizer.

OP, hope you feel better soon. Did you have AZ or Pfizer previously? I know what to expect with AZ, but wondering if side effects will be worse following on with a different vaccine, as it's meant to produce a strong antibody response.

I had my booster on Wednesday
I had Pfizer for all.
Only had a achy arm and a headache, only needed a few paracetamol and felt ok generally

Had my flu jab 2 weeks ago felt awful for three days, had my Covid jab yesterday and apart from a sore arm feeling fine (had AZ first two, Pfizer booster)

I've been told that I will only be able to have my covid booster 180 days after my second jab. Is that the norm?

Yep it’s at least 6 months after your second jab

I had a booster last week. Ive had pfizer for all jabs. First 2 no issues at all, booster felt awful with pretty significant flu type symptoms the following day. Came home from work and went immediately to bed as I felt so rough. Couldn't stop shivering, even my teeth were chattering! Could have been a coincidental bug - but I generally rarely get ill and can probably count on one hand the amount of times I've had a cold.
Felt fine by the next day though

Had booster on Wednesday, achy arm for 24hrs and that was all. Pfizer and 7Mths since last dose.

Had Pfizer booster yesterday morning (Astra Zeneca first two) and flu vaccine at the same time.

No side effects apart from sore arm and a really horrible taste in my mouth (which I remember from last time!)

My worst side effects were after the first one but even then it was 24 hrs of feeling very achy and with sore throat and ears, I can’t remember the second so can’t have been that bad.

I feel very grateful to have been able to have them all so quickly.
