Had vaccine no.1 today.. what to expect?

[wineislife21]

I'm 30, and had the Pfizer around 4 hours ago, so far just getting an ache in my arm.. what can I expect overnight and tomorrow please ladies? X

Achy arm and swollen glands in armpit were my only side effects.

Vaccines have been given for nearly a year now, lots of threads and information about this and what to expect on social media, news and on the leaflet they would have given you, and told you at the centre? Not sure what else you expect to find out!
Some people have had 24hrs of feeling crap. Others have had no symptoms!

Achy arm was all I got.

Just tiredness after first one.

Just tired / slightly sore arm

Oh and extremely painful arm for around 24hrs, didn't sleep a wink the first night as I had it the side I normally sleep on. Not well planned!

Achy arm, tired. You might feel a bit more flu symptoms with the second jab, such as body aches. Well done for getting your vaccine 🤩👏

Couldnt get off the settee for the whole of the next day. Not ill at all, just totally wiped out. Slept nearly 15 hour. Tired for a couple more days then right as rain.

I'm your age and had Pfizer, had an aching arm both times but no other side effects.

I am 34, had my booster on Wednesday, I am a frontline healthcare worker. All three were Pfizer. Sore arm for a few days was the worst bit, slight headache and feeling a bit wiped out for a half a day. Achy joints, mainly hands and toes. But that's it each time.

DS: Nausea & vomiting vaccine 1, nothing vaccine 2
DH: nothing for either
Lots of other people: a whole range of side effects. Original data shows 2nd Pfizer worse than 1st but not sure if that's true for real world use.

I've had three vaccines to date, all Pfizer and I can honestly say no side effects at all apart from a slightly sore arm for 24 hours after my booster jab. Well done for having it OP. :)

Just to add the second one was the worst for me. Well done for getting it done.

Not a thing. I had nothing on 1 and 2 (AZ), had my booster this morning (Moderna) and....nothing.

I just had an aching arm after both Pfizer jabs.

Thanks everyone, looks like hopefully I can just expect a sore arm and some tiredness tomorrow fingers crossed!

The volunteers at the vaccination centre were so encouraging, I genuinely left feeling proud!

Well it must be quite unusual to have someone going for their first jab (assuming you are not 12) so giving you a bit of encouragement to make sure you come back for number 2.

Funny you say that as they told me they're getting people of all ages in 😊

A slightly sore arm for most people I I know.

Well done OP! Everyone I know didn't feel to bad after Pfizer x

Pfizer here too, aching arm day one, tiredness day two, which lasted 2 days.
