Booster vaccination

We had Moderna after having had AZ previously. I had an achy arm after all 3 but DH had a headache this time.
We were boosted on Saturday and have heard of people not reacting until days afterwards.

DD has had the Moderna booster yesterday and says her arm hurts and she feels awful. Hope she picks up as she’s doing Scout Camp this weekend and she doesn’t want to let the kids down. She was happy to do it (it’s indoors) because all of the Scouts have recently had covid.

Slightly concerned about having Pfizer booster after AZ 1 and 2. Anyone had any bad reactions?

I had the Pfizer after two AZ. The first two put me in bed for three weeks each time and the reaction so severe it had to be reported to the Yellow card scheme.

The Pfizer triggered a bout of Labyrinthitis two days later. This has happened previously to me with other medications. The reaction wasn't as severe as the first two.

I am immunocompromised and tend to react badly to most things.

Good luck, it's worth the discomfort.

Now being hounded by the NHS with letters and texts saying I need a booster. I had my 3rd primary jab on Sept 20th and I am waiting for the 3 month period so I can have my booster for that one. Went to the surgery yesterday to find out why this is happening and they basically said ignore it all, have faith in us and we call you forward later in December. It could be so confusing for some

I had Pfizer after AZ and was fine. I don’t seem to have any reaction to vaccines though. When my daughter messaged me to say she was feeling bad after having the Moderna vaccine she said she was going to go straight back to bed after walking the dog. She then messaged me to say her dog had been attacked by an off lead rescue Staffie cross that is aggressive but usually kept on lead. Thankfully she did manage to grab the dog by it’s back legs (which is what we’re advised to do but I’ve never thought it was actually possible) and my little grand dog is unharmed. DD said the nurse told her that the Moderna is the Rolls Royce if vaccines so it’s worth the sore arm!

I had Pfizer after 2 AZ jabs yesterday morning. Woke up at 4am freezing and have felt cold all day.
Taking paracetamol and although I feel a bit rough I am glad I have had it. Worth a day or two of discomfort.

Sorry for those who have had more severe reactions.

I’ve made enquiries to the nhs regarding my late booster and flu vaccine. I’ve been waiting every day for weeks to be told my name is now on the list for a home visit. The very nice man called David was very helpful in explaining why I’ve not yet had these vaccines but he did say I’ll get a phone call soon. He also said the army has been drafted in to help. I told him to warn them I’m a screamer when I get a sight of needles he replied by saying it’ll not put them off. It might be interesting, I do so like a man in a uniform

I started to feel better today I did have to have Monday and Tuesday off work though and went in yesterday but shouldn't have really and had to go to bed as soon as I got home. BUT TODAY WAS FINE so hopefully, that is it!

I had a bad reaction to both AZ vaccines. Falls where I don't remember falling, injection type pain to both kidneys, shaking for hours and high temperature. I was not going to get the booster but I did yesterday Pfizer. Was OK yesterday but today shivers, feel weak, tired, aching legs n arms. Normal temperature though. Hope it doesn't last long. O H had no reaction at all to Pfizer booster.

Husband had Moderna booster and had fever and diarrhoea 24 hrs later. He's not mixed with anyone---unable to go out as had hip replacement a few weeks ago.
