With my second vaccine I felt tired and my legs were heavy and I had a runny nose for two days but no side effects with first one.

COVID vaccine

I think that is a mild reaction and hope that is now ended and you will now have some protection.

[jeanjeannie50]

Which vaccine did you have?

[Overseventy in reply to jeanjeannie50]

I had the Pfizer one, the symptoms weren’t that bad I was just making a comment about the difference.

[Desanthony in reply to Overseventy]

I have had the two Pfizer vaccines too and no problems with either. The first one I didn't even realise she had injected me but I did lay on that arm in the night and that made it slightly achy the next day. The second one was pretty much the same but i made sure not to lie on my arm that night. Other than that nothing.

Sounds about right. Oddly AZ seems to give those symptoms first jab and Pfizer the second from recent reports here but we are all different.

[ETFCfan in reply to BobD]

That’s exactly what I’ve understood from speaking to friends and family. Slight side effects after the first Astra and the same after the second Pfizer jab. It’s happened too much in our family circle to be coincidence. We had The Pfizer and I just had extreme tiredness for a day but nothing to worry about.

It means it's working apparently 👍👍👍👍

I had Pfizer and had aches and pains after 1st jab but only for one day and an achy arm for 2 days after the second. So nothing to complain about I would say

As others have said. AZ seems worse first injection. Pfizer seems to affect more on the second. My experience with Pfizer I was in brain fog for a couple of days. Though my wife says she didnt notice any difference. I'm sure you will feel fine by day 3.

I had my second AZ on Monday and am still waiting for any reaction, other than knowing vaguely where the needle went in. I had a painful arm with the first one.
