Wondering if anyone is getting any different SE from the pfizer booster?

i got the usual sore arm, but this time i'm getting some gastric nonsense going on too.. trying to decide if its a SE or a coincidence.

Following.

AZ x 2 and okay. Pfizer booster midday Friday and I feel grim. Arm ache down to the bone, it’s not a nice feeling. Then night sweats last night and today I have those all over shooting nerve type pains that you get when you’re coming down with something. Nauseous. Dodgy tum. Could happily go back to bed.

I’m testing negative.

Barely had any side effects from AZ vaccines. Bit tired the morning after the 1st dose but that was it. Had Moderna booster yesterday and have a really sore arm - it feels like a dead weight and I can hardly lift it. Slept really badly last night (unusual for me) and now feel exhausted and out of sorts. Hopefully this will be it and won't last too long.

Anybody had any chest or back pain?

1st AZ sore arm and bone tired for 48 hours
2nd AZ no side effects
3rd Pfizer sore arm, aching joints and muscles for 24 hours but managed with Paracetamol and went about my day to day business and went to work.

First two moderna then Pfizer booster. Felt nauseous a few hours afterwards and a bit on and off the next day. Was absolutely exhausted 24h after having it done, had to have an afternoon nap, but fine after 36h.

Anybody had any chest or back pain?
yep. monday i had trapped wind. tuesday i had stomach pain... reminded me of the time i had an inflammed stomach lining weds i was kinda ok, but had indigestion a bit. thursday i had central chest pain, which i've had on and off since, always after eating, so i'm putting it down to continued indigestion.

and no-one panic, if it continues and doesn't go away, i will call the dr, but i'm 100% sure it is just indigestion mixed with stress and nothing else.

all lft's are negative.. i test myself and the kids every other day.

I fainted unexpectedly next day, after feeling momentarily queasy and clammy. Was fine before that.

Now I've got puffiness above my collar bone, and the back of my throat feels a bit tight. Worrying just a little...

@PanicPrevention

Armpit is probably a swollen lymph node. Ive had swollen lymph node on my collar bone since a couple of days after my second jab about a month ago. Not uncommon side effect from what I could find online.
Was that a small pea type raised gland, or a large area of puffiness? I have the latter and can't find out much about it.
