Experience with your Covid 19 vaccination jabs

[Edwardoka]

AZ on Friday night, was fine to ride home although a bit spaced out.
Yesterday was spent mostly in bed. Nothing severe, just a general malaise and aches/weakness in joints and muscles, and stiff upper arm that is sore to touch. Still feel that way now. Every time I think "I feel better, I shall get up and do something", a couple of minutes after I get up I'm like "no, stuff this, back to bed"

Overall I rate it 4 blargs out of 10.

I got a little card which had the date,, vaccine variant & batch number on it instead of a sticker.

There was a small drawback I've just remembered - while sitting out the 10 minute 'observation time' before being allowed to leave the surgery there was an older couple looking at their cards and the man commented words to the effect of "bloody Pfizer, I didn't want that foreign stuff, I'd have preferred the Astra one". Miserable bugger.

My mother told me that a couple of people refused their jabs on the same basis when she was done a few weeks ago. There’s nowt like folk...

So 24 hours on from having the jab and the only side effect is a slightly sore arm where the jab went in.

So a couple of hours after writing this I began to feel a bit lethargic and tired. Woke up this morning feeling fine.

Off with Mrs T this morning on the bike for her jab.

Mine is too

Plenty of meaty muscle on my arms, so no problems there. The lady GP nearly swooned when i exposed the guns ready for the needle. Hell, she's only human.

Resting HR back to baseline (after 72 hours) this morning. forgot to check resting HR at 48 hours. So other than that no side effects after AZ vaccine.

On a serious not - difficult for me - please report any aide effects cia the NHS yellow card system. Mass input of information helps them refine the vaccine and dose.

I got mine given in the right shoulder, not the buttocks!

When I got mine, I was confused because the nurse said it was "just a little prick". I thought it was supposed to be in the shoulder...

24 hours in for me and nothing to declare. Ran yesterday so my legs are a bit achey but that's pretty normal for me.

Slightly more achy arm today, but just been for a 4 mile walk.

I had the AZ vaccine at the beginning of March. I felt tired for a few hours after I got home but apart from that no other effects.

 

[Brandane]

Ive had both jabs, Pfizer.
First in December resulted in slightly sore arm overnight, no other side effects.
Second in February was just the same, less of an ache in the arm.

I was vaccinated with AZ at 1pm, went for 5k run at 6pm, then was in bed with a fever by 9pm. Lasted 24 hours.
I already had covid antibodies so was expecting a reaction.

had it yesterday lunchtime (AZ) felt fine, until woke at about 3/4am shivery, then hot etc and quite achy legs and back and a slight headache. Improving now, it maybe the ibuprofen & paracetamol. small price to pay.

So Friday and Saturday (after a thursday jab) were both quite achey shivery days, but improved by Saturday evening and went for a gentle rride on Sunday. Arm still aches a bit today though. My partner's experience is pretty similar.

 

[potsy]

Had my AZ jab yesterday lunchtime, by 6pm had the shivers and generally felt unwell.
Slept for almost 12 hours and am taking today off work as a precaution.
Arm tender to the touch but not aching.

I’m 48 and had my jab yesterday morning. This morning my arm is a little sore and I woke with a headache. Took some pills and feel fine now. I had the AZ vaccine
