Any issues with Covid vaccination and AF

[Japaholic]

I’m having a phizer Covid vaccine on Monday (I know it’s late but Japan is way behind) and wondered if any fibbers had issue with it.

The regular flu vaccine sometimes makes me skip a few beats but was wondering if the vaccine for covid has triggered anyone?

When we here in UK were first being vaccinated I went through the results reported on forum and found that the vast majority of people, especially with Pfizer had no AF related reactions. A sore arm and a slight headache seemed to be the norm BUT there were a few who said that their hearts played up for a few days. There seemed more problems (though still small ) with the Astra Zeneca . All seemed to agree that the alternative did not bear thinking about.

Had no problem whatsoever. Good luck to you! Get that shot (and the second) asap. I'm awaiting the booster whenever they have it available.

I had no problems at all with either of my two doses.

I had no side effects at all with either the first or second Pfizer vaccination. Just a slightly sore arm. My wife had the Astra Zeneca vaccine and had a bad couple of days going hot and cold and shivering and very tired/fatigued after her first vaccination but nothing at all after the second other than a slight sore arm for a couple of days. Other than that no problems with AF

Hi did u have the vaccine I have hf from a previous ha and I'm sorry worried in having the jab and wondering which is the best to have

[Japaholic in reply to Yass_123]

Yes I had 2 Pfizer jabs with no trouble. My wife had Moderna, had no period for 8 weeks, an arm the became swollen and felt like concrete.

From my experience, Phizer good, Moderna Bad.

Seems that Pfizer could be best option for people with AF. Of course we are all different so can’t say that with any certainty. The thing is getting Covid can and does cause AF and long Covid is something you would definitely want to avoid so all in all getting the jab is probably best way forward and getting Pfizer jab seems to be best for us if you have a choice.

Had both Jabs, Pfizer, slight fever after the 2nd but no real issues. Hope all the long time AFers are doing well.
