Since having my 2and vaccine in April....I have felt poorly...but also had other strange reactions...e.g...taste...always always loved mashed potatoes...cannot stand the taste or smell of them now..same re tinned tomatoes, beans ,chocolate, pasta,rice...have had no energy,digestive system been a mess,been just off colour...before anyone 'jumps' on me..I'm glad,of course,that I've had the vaccines,...but nevertheless....have had weeks and weeks of feeling poorly, sluggish, brain fog etc...today has been amazing...energy levels slightly raised,thinking clearly,feeling more upbeat.....now bothered re the thought of having the booster!!...

Onward and upward, Farview. Its great to hear some positive news for change, ?

It's still worth suffering the side effects (even severe ones) rather than risking hospitalisation and/or death.

I’m pleased to hear you’ve had a good day farview !
Lets hope this is the start of you feeling better properly.

Oh that must feel so good Farview. I'm glad you're feeling better. I hope its the first day of many. Don't think about the booster until near the time.

Timetogo I had two really bad days after first but second was fine, no bad effect not even a sore arm.. Although I have not had the same energy since vaccines, but maybe just coincidence. However still glad I had them.
