Bit tired with a sore arm but much less than the two AZ jabs.

Kshhuxnxk · 13/12/2021 15:02

General Fluey symptoms after first 2 AZ but slept it off. Very ill after Pfizer booster. Dilerium,.fever, sick, fainting- had to request medical assistance. Neighbiur was same and collapsed in street. Everyone else I know were fine so you can't go by others.

DillDanding · 13/12/2021 15:03

My booster last week was Pfizer after 2x AZ.

No side effects whatsoever.

Ceara · 13/12/2021 15:06

DH was in bed with fatigue and the shivers for a day after first AZ, but OK after his second AZ except a slightly sore arm. He had a Pfizer booster earlier this week and again, fine except for a VERY achey arm for a couple of days.

AZ : felt v rough for 3 days. AZ 2: zilch. Pfizer booster (& flu jab in t'other arm) v. sore arms, bad sleep day 1, fine now.

MarshaBradyo · 13/12/2021 15:08

Sore arm and a bit nauseous and tired the next day

Change123today · 13/12/2021 15:11

Sore arm - was really surprised thought it would be worse. For husband & I after AZ felt a bit blurgh but not to bad but Pfizer booster all good!
It seems to be friends who had AZ then Modena booster not being to well for a day or two.

Though glad to read someone else had a Wierd taste!! It was like a metal taste shortly after! But lasted no time just very odd & only me! @Yellow85

AZ x 2 and just a bit tired after each. Pfizer for the 3rd and I felt hit by a truck for a week, blamed it on the booster - but in hindsight I'm fairly sure i actually had covid Blush (multiple PCR & LFT tests were all negative but everybody else in the household got it after me, and mine was very typical covid symptoms).

Mulhollandmagoo · 13/12/2021 15:13

Thank you for asking this :-) I had AZ and am now able to book my booster so was interested to hear the responses.

Gigitree · 13/12/2021 15:15

I had AZ hardly any discernible side effects, but had Pfizer booster and felt like 💩 and had a swollen lymphnode, so my armpit was tender and felt swollen for a few days, generally had body aches & chills. I felt like id been hit by a truck as I wasn’t expecting to feel so rough after being ok after AZ

Peanutmnm · 13/12/2021 15:17

Had Pfizer last week after 2 az, my best friend too. She was totally fine, I felt mildly off. That was it. Went on the piss despite it and was grand.

IsThisNameTaken · 13/12/2021 15:29

Nothing after 2 doses of AZ, felt awful for 2 days after Pfizer booster.

Notonthestairs · 13/12/2021 15:37

AZ 1 - felt exhausted for 24 hours. AZ 2 - no reaction.
Phizer booster Saturday evening - within a few hours felt dreadful, aches, shivers, hot and cold, last night was in bed by 7.30pm (usually closer to 11.30) still off today and taking paracetamol every 4 hours.
Hoping it's cleared by tomorrow.

My Dad had the same jabs and zero reaction to all three!

MarshaBradyo · 13/12/2021 15:46

I had lower reaction to booster than first one

First had high temp too

Redannie118 · 13/12/2021 15:49

Ive been awful. Horrific sore arm and a lump the size of an orange in my armpit. Flu type symptoms for about 3 days, chills, headaches awful muscle pain and tiredness. I could barely get out of bed for 3 days. By day 4 was feeling a little better but came out in a huge crop of coldsores, i havent had one in almost 10 years. AZ for first two. Jab 1 was ill for 24 hours but then fine. Jab 2 no issues at all.

Fallagain · 13/12/2021 16:04

Thanks for all your replies. With the first AZ I felt so ill from
12 to 24 hours, felt like a bad cold with and hang over, vomiting, light sensitivity but luckily the toddler slept through with Daddy that night. She is unwell so I’m expecting to be up feeding all night.

First 2 AZs, arm fine but a bit knackered for about a week after both.

Booster Pfizer yesterday, and arm a bit achy, but mainly intense desire to lie face down on the rug with eyes shut for 12 hours. Would like that to wear off.

Same here, 3 days of feeling dreadful so far, can’t stand, headache, swollen glands, night sweats, palpitations, BP through roof, can’t sleep-now can’t keep food down and have taken two tests as I’m convinced I must have Covid! Nothing with the two AZ. Hoping tomorrow is a better day.

@thelittlestrhino

I had Pfizer after 2xAZ last Wed. Sore arm/swollen lymph nodes in that armpit on Thurs eve/Fri but nothing of note.
I'm so glad you said this.

I had mine on Tuesday. My arm is in agony. Its red and swollen a bit by the injection site. But the pain in my arm is all the way down my arm and around to my armpit that feels swollen.

thelittlestrhino · 16/12/2021 20:06

@Elfonthesofa it began to ease off the Saturday - so hopefully yours will do the same. Other colleagues have had exactly the same too.

middleager · 16/12/2021 20:09

I'm 48, 2 AZs, Covid (Delta) and Pfizer booster two days ago.
Bit of a headache yest but otherwise fine. Mind, this has been my response to all three jabs.
Interestingly, Covid knocked me about a fair bit!

MadeOfStarStuff · 16/12/2021 20:19

I had AZ for my first two, was tired with mild flu like symptoms for a day after the first one, then absolutely fine after the second

Had the Pfizer booster a couple of weeks ago and just had a slightly sore arm but felt absolutely fine in myself

SLH2003 · 16/12/2021 20:51
