I have just had my 6th Covid vaccine ( only because we are going on a cruise in a couple of weeks ) and this time I have had a nasty reaction to it. Extreme fatigue, aches and pains and a sore arm. My husband is the same. Neither of us has ever reacted much before to the vaccines so I was just wondering if they are different now ? It was a Moderna spikevax bivalent. Any one else had this happen ?

No reaction to the flu jab and just a sore arm after the Covid jab, my partner was the same.

Last Friday... flu jab in right arm... covid in left.
No reaction whatsoever... same as usual.

I had the updated version of Spikevax yesterday, the first Moderna one I’ve had, and I woke up with stomach ache, and tinnitus. The stomach ache dissipated quickly, but my ears are still ringing now - I don’t know if that is a recognised side effect.
