Thanks for asking. No aftereffects I realize. I have had goast aftereffects of the Moderna vax where I will feel sore in the shot area in the arm for a hour or two a month after vax. Went away as fast as it came on.
For now… Thank God
I’d say, comparatively, the hubs and I had mild side effects, from the vaccine. We had the two dose Pfizer.
After the first dose we had soreness in the injection site and surrounding area for a few days, muscle and joint pain, overall lethargy, and that was pretty much it. Lasted for a little less than 4 days and we were back to normal.
Second dose wasn’t as bad but about the same duration and symptoms.
The symptoms hit me a few hours before they did him but thats usually how it is, in our house. If my daughter brings home, for example, strep throat? I usually catch it before she even tells us her throat is sore and she starts coughing. A few days later, he shows symptoms (if he gets it, which is rare).
I’m sorry you got hit so hard with the side effects after your vaccine. I’m glad you’re feeling better.
I hope you feel better real soon. This is the exact reason why I’m afraid to get my vaccine. Also my mom is 91. I don’t think she can handle feeling that ill & I don’t want to put her through that kind of pain.
I am 52 years of age with Type 2 diabetes and other health issues and I have had both of the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccines with very little after effects except a slightly sore arm in the injection site after the second dose . My mother who is 76 years old has had both Pfizer vaccines thankfully with no side effects and my wife has had the same as myself with no side effects.
Thanks mate.
On the other hand. If she gets Covid it will likely be far worse than shot side effects.
OP, it sounds like you lived after the shots! My wife and I just received our first Pfizer shots about an hour ago. Now I come home and am reading this thread. LOL. I am feeling a little dizzy at the moment, but will wait it out. I am a republican and have been ignoring all of the manipulation the left shits out daily. This was an American decision to go ahead and get the shots, since we have that right to do so. If it kills us, well we have to die from something. There are a lot of “healthy” people that don’t even eat meat laying up in hospitals that are dying for absolutely no reason at all. How boring are these people.
@Happy_Man1 it takes a LOT to force me to do a double take, and your post did just that. I commend you for making your choice, and hope you guys have no side effects. I thought your post was perfectly written, and I salute you for that. Our feelings towards the shots may differ, but your post, was a great one, none the less. Thank you for that.
Thanks! No issues as of yet. Just a little tender at the injection shot for me. My wife says not so much for her. We both took a little nap because we were feeling little tired, All is well so far.
I’ve no intention of allowing an untested pathogen to be injected into my system - dispite the stats ABC News keep posting about the hundreds of thousands of people ‘gettin the jab’ every day across the country.
Our premier is an idiot.
Dispite two months now of closing Sydney more or less, we’re still seeing new daily infections rise - from 350 a week ago to 600+ today - because politicians cannot control the virus, yet they still yap on like they’ve got it under control.
I’m devolving into rant-mode.
Curiously, while I’ve tried to not mock those who rush to have the vaccines squirted in them, the same doesn’t go for those of us who oppose it: telling anyone you’re not going to be volunteering your immune system to be another guinea-pig automatically sees those who are pro vaccine regarding you as a police-horse-punchng idiots or conspiricy nut.
It’s naught to do with conspiricies though: my immune system has adapted over a lifetime to be as balanced as it is - I have not had even a common cold or influenza in years now and on the very rare occasion one manages to get in and stick, they’re cleared completely in well under a week.
Why would I risk throwing my healthy immune system into a nose-dive for a virus that may result in no more than a runny nose - if I actually do contract it.
Others want to vaccinate, fine: just don’t be complaining in a years time when your pus-filled eyeballs fall out and hit your desk with a little wet splat; or when your intestinal tract sloughs-out along with your morning shit - because, side-effects yo.
You did sign the disclaimer: vaccine companies, governments and other people have no liability for you not reading the fine-print…
Your really not supposed to mix the two. There are trials going on right now, But so far its not recommended.
So …how’s everyone feel about getting the vaccine now you can’t even get.on a plane? Or go to a restaurant or soon…anywhere else? You will need a vaccine passport to do pretty much anything now. It’s pretty much being forced…
I was in a pub for the first time in a long time last night for dinner and it was excellent. Some people still used masks, including the waiters but nobody asked if we were vaccinated or tested.
Still trying to avoid the shots, I had covid in January and can’t really see a good reason to risk the jabs. Here in the UK people are mainly using fabric masks which are banned n a lot of countries because they don’t really work. Or most of them anyway. I work in a school, they do a lot of testing but not a single one of the positives had complications or had to be hospitalised.
@Bad_Influence I am NOT a medical professional, so take the following as such. I’ve heard everything from …
… to a possibility that doing so could harm you, due to getting a “double dose” of antibodies. I.e. your natural ones, PLUS, the elicited ones.
@Bad_Influence I’m GLAD to hear that. Do you know of the positives, were any of them vaccinated already ?
