How did you feel after your Moderna booster?

I had mine tonight. I have a busy work day tomorrow. Is there a chance I might feel rubbish? I felt terrible after my first AZ vaccine!

Not booster but the proper jab.
First one done
Second one like I’d been run over. 24 hours later, back to normal.

I know other people who’ve barely felt it, others in bed for days. You can never tell.

Redcrayons · 30/11/2021 22:27

Done = fine. Not even a sore arm.

Moderna booster after 2x AZ. Very sore arm, that night I felt cold and was up nearly every hour in the night either freezing or warm. Then felt generally poorly the next day. Then absolutely fine.

LaurieFairyCake · 30/11/2021 22:29

I had double AZ - was ill for 5 days after first vax, 2nd nothing

I had a Moderna booster 12 days ago - wasn't unwell but my arm had a black huge egg on it

It's still black but the egg has gone

The day after my Moderna booster I felt so exhausted I spent the whole day in bed.

Identical here

Very sore arm. In fact most of the people I know who had moderna had a sore arm that only lasted 1-2 days. No other symptoms.

gettingolderandgrumpy · 30/11/2021 22:34

Felt unwell for about 24 hours flu like shivering etc plus sore arm then I was fine .

poolblue · 30/11/2021 22:35

Moderna after two AZ here too. Felt exhausted for 48 hours and very nauseous.

KittenKong · 30/11/2021 22:36

Sore arm - felt crap the next day. The first 2 shots and fly jab - absolutely nothing, didn’t even feel the needle!

justaweeone · 30/11/2021 22:37

Fine
Tiny bit of bruising on the injection site for 24 hrs

Bagelsandbrie · 30/11/2021 22:38

Moderna after two AZ here and was very unwell. Basically felt like I had really bad flu for about 2 days (I’m in the clinically extremely vulnerable group and have lupus and other conditions).

LoveFall · 30/11/2021 22:38

Moderna after two Pfizer. Felt a bit ratty for two days. Very sore arm and slight headache/nausea. Nothing serious.

Bellabelloo · 30/11/2021 22:40

Urgh! Thanks all. I guess I'll see what happens...!

I got mine Sunday. My arm is still really sore, more so than after the AZ. And yesterday was was completely exhausted.

HunkyPunk · 30/11/2021 22:40

Moderna booster yesterday evening (after 2x AZ.) Sore arm. Woke up in early hours feeling really achy. Have had a headache and been feeling exhausted, shivery and out of sorts all day today. Hopefully will stage a comeback tomorrow!

Theplantisgrowing · 30/11/2021 22:41

Fine here, just sore arm.

Arcadia · 30/11/2021 22:41

Moderna after two Pfizer (no side effects for the Pfizer either time).
Felt a bit nauseous and headachey for two days after, first day was at work but the second day was home, had slight temperature the second day. Didn't have time to rest properly either day so muddied through.
Woke the third day absolutely fine again.

JustSinginInTheRain · 30/11/2021 22:43

Moderna booster after two AZ

Sore arm for three days, feverish all first night, tired next day.

Frazzled2207 · 30/11/2021 22:51

Not the booster but I had two main Moderna shots.
Not ill but was very tired the following day.

I believe the booster is only a half dose though

MrsDeaconClaybourne · 30/11/2021 22:56

Poorly for about 12 hours, after about 12 hours with first AZ. Just had moderna as booster and no symptoms other than the most ridiculously sore arm. Still aware of it after 6 days but is gradually getting better. Might have been a bit tired but nothing terrible.

CornishYarg · 30/11/2021 23:14

I had my Moderna booster yesterday lunchtime after two AZ. My arm started hurting a couple of hours later and was really sore overnight and this morning. I felt a bit unwell today, nothing too bad though. Feeling a bit better this evening and my arm is hurting less.

RosesAndHellebores · 30/11/2021 23:18

2 x AZ - felt fine
Modern booster Friday morning. Bit of a sore arm and slight tiny bruise. Felt fine.

WhenZoomWasJustAnIceLolly · 30/11/2021 23:22

Felt fine after 2 AZ. Absolutely ducking awful after Moderna booster. Sorry op!
