Cricky Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 I got my 1st Pfizer shot a week ago, I've been waking everyday with a mild head ache. My arm was sore for 3 days where the needle penetrated. Anyone else with issues? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BritManToo Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Yesterday, slightly stiff neck on the side I was injected, very slight tenderness around the injection area. Today, feels like a bruise at the injection site, but nothing to see and no feelings if I don't poke at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirineou Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 (edited) Both me, my wife, and my sister and brother in-law got vaccinated with Pfizer last spring , all at the same time. My brother in law has several allergies and was worried about taking the Pfizer vaccine , and wanted to take the J&J vaccine, Both were offered at the vaccination location we were going. The rest of us were not too concerned as we were very robust people. It turned out that when we got there , they were out of J&J and my brother in law rather than come back another day, relented and also got the Pfizer vaccine. Me . my wife, and the person we worried the most about, my brother in law, were perfectly fine. as others said a bit of a sore arm for about a day, My sister whom we worried the least about because she was never sick a day in her life, was slightly ill , such you, for about a week. I think strong people that have strong immunity systems might have a bit of a stronger reaction to it as their body reacts differently. I would not worry about it too much, My sister was fine in a week, and none of us had any issues with covid 19????. Congratulations on getting your Pfizer shot!!

Guest TerryS123 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 I had 48 hours of a head ache, chills and fever for both my Moderna shots. Reminded me of when I actually had COVID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkT63 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Two days after first jab I had bad stomach cramps and severe sweating for a few hours After second jab I just felt a bit <deleted> for a couple of days. I have to say that, overall, the experiance of getting the jabs here on Phuket was very good indeed and I am so grateful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJCM Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 A bit of a sore arm after the 1st shot went away after 2-3 days. After the 2nd shot had cold shivers at night and was feeling unwell the whole next day. After that no issues! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmsally Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 3 hours ago, internationalism said: 1st headache on the 5th day 2nd not well since the 5th day, now almost a month. Temperature, sweating, headaches, gastric problems Almost the same as you , except I was violently vomiting straight after the jab (started about 3hrs after and lasted for about 12hrs). Next 2 days felt fine and then digestive issues starting day 3. Seemed to be a gut issue with fungus so went on appropriate diet and seemed to clear up. After feeling OK for a few days felt sick again, this time headache/sinus/general malaise. Went for health check and got the OK. It's now 5 weeks since the jab and feel OK on some days but ill on others. As far as I can fathom it is a general high level of inflammation in my system. I am not experienced in biochemistry but I can get to grip with most of the articles I can find. Looking at how the vaccine works / possible side effects/ etc. , I think it might be something to do with cytokines. A lot of things point to this especially the fact that I often feel far worse at night. I should point out that I am otherwise a healthy person. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronster Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Nothing from 1st Pfizer jab and after the second was fine until 10 hrs later when suddenly felt unwell and it got worse for a hour . It then went away and returned an hour later to the point I felt like death and had to go to bed where I spent the next 8 hrs feeling like had the flu . Woke up and felt fine until a hour later when the symptoms started again and spent the day with them coming and going until finally stopped in evening.

Popular Post BananaGuy Posted October 21, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 21, 2021 I’ve found myself unable to pronounce the ‘F’ in Pfizer without laughing like a drain … but then again I’ve had only Astra Zeneca shots so there’s that. Get well soon. and (a) don’t seek medical advice on social media and (b) don’t be such a worrywart 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

millymoopoo Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 After the Pfizer shot: Our local pharmacist had took 3 days off, he had 'man flu'.! A friend in France (no underlying health issues) was hospitalised for 14 days with multiple symptoms, they could find no cause, all cleared up in the end. And my partner had a nasty rash for a few weeks. It seems it's not always 'plain sailing' with Pfizer.! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Count Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 I’ve had both Pfizer shots. After the first shot I was kind of aware of the spot where it went in for about 24 hours. After the second shot three weeks later there was nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Almer Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 (edited) 1st Pfiser a bad stomach for 2 days, 2nd I enjoyed a bad stomach the same as the first + a small niggle of headache. No injection site soreness. My wife and 2 family members have just had an Astra shot following there initial Sinovac and all 3 are laid up today, my wife in the night put a coat on and was sweating like a pig but had the shivers. I have just realised so added this after reading another post, my Pfiser also gave me a rash across my chest that I had somehow not tied to Pfiser Edited October 21, 2021 by Almer Addition comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CM Dad Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 I had my first Pfizer shot in late August and the second in early September. I had no problems after either one. In fact, all I felt was extreme relief, gratitude, and peace of mind. My sixteen-year old son got his first Pfizer shot this past Tuesday. His reaction was the same as mine. We both look forward to his second shot in mid-November. Hopefully, he will be able to study on-site at his school for the second semester. We are both tired of what we consider to be less than effective on-line classes. By the way, I am a retired teacher who believes that the social inter-action between students and between students and teachers is an important part of education. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it effects the young a lot more. A friend got a Pfizer jab yesterday at the age of 25, the second Pfizer jab. On the way home she said pull over and threw up. She threw up 5 times since the jab. Different strokes for different folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post pseudorabies Posted October 21, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 21, 2021 No problems for me however about 24 hours after the second injection I noticed that metallic items would vibrate and wobble when I walked by. 48 hours post-injection I was attacked by a pair of scissors as I walked through my kitchen. I asked the NSA agents that had started following me around the time I left the hospital where I was injected about this. They told me not to worry about it and recommended that I take some adrenochrome. Helpful guys!! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joe999 Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 54, got my first Pfizer shot yesterday. Apart from muscle soreness in the injection area, no other side-effects.
