vaccine side effects

I am 61 ... My sister had the Pfizer vaccine and had no reaction at all on her 1st or 2nd.

I had the Astra Zenica as did my DH. We both felt fine the first day then sleepy and achy for quite a few days afterwards. We couldn't be bothered to do anything not even read. Gradually it got better. I had been forwarned by at least four friends all of who had differing symptoms. When people say they had Pfizer they seem to have had no symptoms at all. I will still be turning up for the second one when it is available though.
I think if the symptoms are severe you should notify your G.P. if only for reassurance.

Same here Nfk only I had the AZ.

With the AZ vaccine several people I know have had flu symptoms for 24 hours or so after the jab and then been fine. I frequently get flu type symptoms after the annual flu injection, sometimes quite badly.

I am in my 40s btw my husband is in his 50s

how old are you? both me and my husband have been ill aswell. Even today I feel (12 days post vaccine) like I am really hazy from the vaccine.

The day after I had it I felt like I had a very heavy flu or post GA feeling! was fine by the evening but I have been headachy and a bit woozy/lightheaded since

Hi moggie57

Sorry to hear you have so many side effects May I ask which vaccine you had?

Not as bad as you fortunately ... I had the AZ vaccine on the morning of 13th March (like you after much debate) By the evening I felt really tired. Then I had flu like symptoms, cold then hot and a headache.
A week later I noticed a swollen lymph node along my right collar bone. Which is still there plus aching joints.

I reported the side effects I had on the gov.uk website.

This is the official UK site to report adverse reactions, reporting is encouraged, I hope you feel better soon.

It that bad but I did have 5 days of side effects. It that was me I’d talk to my GP on Monday. Sounds quite severe.
