It doesn't make you ill, but I did notice my arm was a bit sore for a day or so after. So best not to do it in your dominant arm. The injection itself was very quick and did not hurt, unlike the anti d :-(

Didn't hurt at all. I felt a bit tired and minor headache after it like but nothing terrible. You do get a sore arm for a few days though!

It doesn't make you ill. It hasn't made me or anyone I know ill anyway. I didn't feel it go in and it wasn't sore afterwards but I think that's unusual as my friends did have sore arms for a few days afterwards.

I didn't feel the jab at all and just had a bruised arm for a couple of days, I've had much worse.

The injection itself was totally fine, didn't even feel it. No symptoms afterwards apart from a sore arm. Good luck, it'll be fine!

The jab itself was fine but I did have a dead arm for 2 days after! Good luck you'll become Grin

That should have said - you'll be fine!! Grin

Don't have it on the arm you sleep on. Kept me awake for a couple if nights. Sorry.

Didn't make me ill and my arm wasn't sore at all, just a bit itchy around the site of the jab. x
