Had my fourth earlierin the year with zero issues other than slightly sore arm. Got my fifth this afternoon so will report in a day or so.

I’m worried about having the Moderna booster as I had a bad reaction to the pfizer, had palpitations, and was diagnosed with P. Afib. I also reacted badly to the flu jab, very hyper and then my heart started racing for over an hour. My GP was aware of these effects. She said it’s because you get a fever, and recommended paracetamol. I am very susceptible to medications unfortunately

I have just had my autumn booster which was Phizer with a top of of anti Delta and anti Omnicron in it., or so they said when I asked. No problems. But you will not be able to choose which one you want in the uk .

There is no Delta strain in the new bivalent vaccines. They are half original Wuhan strain and half Omicron BA4/BA5.

I was all set up for the 4th jab ,but then contracted covid,I had near enough no symptoms except a slightly raised hr and a sore throat,yet when i had my 3 previous jabs i had quite a few side effects that lasted a few days with each jab the side effects easing,so to my non medical logic it all kind of makes sense.

hi bee flower I too am concerned about 4th covid jab as I know several people who had blood clots after there covid jabs I’m not scaremongering but I thought afib increases your chances of getting blood clots so I’m really not sure weather or not to have my 4 jab since my diagnosis in November last year I am on thinners so will this rule out such a thing happening.

Cant comnent on this Dec60 exceot yo say I was diagnosed with P-Afib before covid and am noojed in for my 4th jab. No.probs to date. Surely the anti coags we take gives us protection agaibst that. Were these people who sadly had clots on anti coags at the time of their covid jabs?

BlueINR profile image
BlueINR in reply to waveylines

That would be nice to know, though my guess is that I doubt it, or perhaps they were doses were too low. People think warfarin is a pain because of the testing, but my thought is, at least you know where you are as far as being anticoagulated.

Dec60 profile image
Dec60 in reply to waveylines

hi they weren’t on thinners and no heart issues

MarkS profile image
MarkS in reply to Dec60

There was an extremely low risk of clots after an Astra Zeneca jab (about 1 in 100,000 for first doses), so your friends' clots were almost certainly from other reasons. The Moderna and Pfizer jabs had no discernible effect on clots.

The risk of a clot after Covid is much higher - it is estimated that up to 20% of people hospitalised with Covid in the UK get clots - and there were 1,000 admissions a day last week and I guess that number is only going skywards. So your risk of a clot (and a lot else) is far, far higher if you do not get your 4th jab.

Suebo2 profile image
Suebo2 in reply to MarkS

hard to compare

a) risk of clot for patient in hospital with Covid

a) healthy patient having a vaccine.

Need to ask oneself:

What is my personal risk of getting Covid?

What is my risk of getting it so badly that I’m in hospital ?

We now know much better how to prevent clots in hospitalised patients than we did at the beginning if the pandemic - so I feel risk of getting clot in hospital now, due to Covid, will bd reduced

It is a difficult dilemma for all, but need to look at personal risks.

Good luck.

Ppiman profile image
Ppiman in reply to Dec60

I was told yesterday that the Moderna vaccine had caused a friend's daughter to be quite ill (no clots, of course, but feeling very rough for a few days) and that it was known to cause more side effects than Pfizer. Closer investigation revealed this was all hearsay and that the friend's daughter who had "reacted badly" actually has a chest infection needing antibiotics, rather than anything to do with the jab. These stories do spread easily.

But your information is far more disturbing. Did you mean that know people who had blood clots following their covid vaccination - or is this what you've heard or read? I know that the incidence of blood clots is vanishingly low in anyone over thirty and even then, it is truly a rare side effect, so I was surprised to read your post.

Also, not that it's much comfort, but the rare blood clots from the vaccine are completely unrelated to the kind of clots that occur in the atrial appendage.

Auriculaire in reply to Ppiman

That might have been hearsay. My sister had her 4th jab a fortnight ago - I think it was Moderna . She said she felt "horrendous" for a few days afterwards. My sister is a hard core covid vaccinophile and she said she doubt she will get any more! After her first booster she said she felt as ill as she did when she actually had covid - which she assured me was not as ill as she has felt in the past with various other respiratory infections.

Every one is different. My adult sons were both poorly with the first jab but not nearly as affected with the follow up ones. My next door neighbour.....now 80 isn't affected at all. I my self felt a bit poorly with first jab, & a off with second, third didn't notice a difference. Just had fourth so far am fine. No different than the flu jab .

To CDreamer, I have been offered Moderna too but am thinking twice about it because of reports of adverse side effects especially heart inflamation. I had second ablation in May and do not want to upset my heart with the jab. AFter two jabs and a booster I caught Covid in April. How did you cope with your heart disturbances? Drugs?

I’m honestly not worried about the flu like after effects because it means the vaccine is provoking a response from the immune system, which is the whole point of having the vaccine ie to train the immune system to respond to the real deal.

We’re right to be wary of anything that might provoke an arrhythmia or palpitations of any kind. I feel the same, but it’s about our relative risks. We don’t have a zero risk of side effects. We don’t have a zero risk of catching Covid. We do have a greater risk of severe illness and death compared to people who don’t have Afib. If we’re older, as many people with AFib are, we are also at greater risk. If you’re 50/60/70+ with a heart condition, your risk profile is not the same as a 20 year old who is physically fit with no health issues. We all have personal autonomy over our health care decisions but we need to be realistic about our individual risk and make an informed choice.

Tellingfibs profile image
Tellingfibs in reply to Autumn_Leaves

I am all for vaccinations, and will have my autumn Covid/flu vax when called. However, I noted your remark “ we ( who have Afib ) do have a greater risk of serious illness and death if we catch Covid”. I asked my GP and cardiologist about this last year and they both said this wasn’t the case if Afib was your only medical problem, even if elderly ( I’m 71 now ). Apparently Covid can upset the heart rate/rhythm, as can many illnesses, even if you don’t have Afib, as illness stresses the body, but the medics said it was co-morbidities that were the greater risk. If you are at greater risk, you would be on a ‘more vulnerable’ list and be called for vaccination early.

Autumn_Leaves profile image
Autumn_Leaves in reply to Tellingfibs

If that’s what your cardiologist says, that’s fine. It’s reliable advice. The point is, none of us have zero risk of anything. We all have to weigh up our risk factors and that’s going to be different for everyone.

I had my 4th jab last Friday (Moderna) and had severe palpitations yesterday. Also my skin, especially my back, has been a bit painful to touch. I'm not sure if the palpitations are because of the vaccine as I've recently changed medication, but it's possible.

Teresa156 profile image
Teresa156 in reply to localad

Sorry to hear you’ve had covid Localad, but unfortunately having covid doesn’t make you immune to catching it again…I know people who’ve had it more than once. I think they advise to have another vaccine, even if you’ve had covid.

localad profile image
localad in reply to Teresa156

Agreed, Teresa, just like the vaccine doesn't stop one catching it. But the vaccines job is to produce antibodies and a dose of covid produces the same antibodies, (even a wider selection than the simple spike ones of the vaccine) so I'll stick with the real thing this time as I've had it so close to the coming winter covid round. That way I'll avoid the very slight chance of one of the vaccine's more serious potential side effects. Next year I'll have to reassess !

Bawdy profile image
Bawdy in reply to localad

If you are at all hesitant, why bother? How you may react will be different to others. I haven't had covid and was reluctant to be vaccinated but had the fist two, as did my hubby who also hasn't had covid, hubby had an extreme reaction to his vaccines, we haven't bothered with the boosters. We aren't travelling on cruise ships and hopping on a plane to go overseas, maybe we would see it differently if that were the case. Stay safe.

Auriculaire profile image
Auriculaire in reply to Teresa156

The vaccines don't stop you catching it either. These new bivalent vaccines have not been tested for efficacy in clinical trials yet, though they are going to be - at the same time they are rolled out to populations not before. Trials were done in people for the original bivalents which targeted Omicron BA1 but as this has been superceded by BA4/ 5 there was not time to do more trials for the bivalents that are actually being rolled out which target BA4 /5. The only tests that have been done are on reactogenicity- ie how much antibody response they elicit. As there is not a reliable correlation between antibodies produced and protection from catching it this is inadequate. The protection from the vaccines is an inferior one to natural infection anyway as the vaccine only produces antibodies to the spike protein and not to the entire virus It was established in studies done in Israel in 2021 that natural infection gave better and longer lasting protection than vaccination. This has always been the case with more stable viruses like measles which do not mutate much. A measles infection will give you protection for life but the vaccine needs to be topped up. Faster mutating respiratory viruses are much more difficult to control with vaccines. What most people don't know is that like the covid vaccines flu vaccines also wear off in their protection. In some flu seasons the efficacy of a flu vaccine has gone down to zero by February and might even be negative ie you are more likely to catch it if you have been vaccinated. This also happened last year with the covid vaccines. A big study done in Sweden showed efficacy waning month by month to negative by 9 months. It is also important to wait after infection before getting the vaccine and under no circumstances to get it if there is any possibility you have covid as this makes the illness worse. My daughter came down with Omicron immediately after having had her first booster . She probably had it when she went for the jab but had no symptoms as she had been in contact with people who had it. She became much sicker than most people she knew who got it . The FDA website advises a 3 month wait and the advice is the same here in France.

Teresa156 profile image
Teresa156 in reply to Auriculaire

Thanks Auriculaire - interesting as always and I can totally understand what you’re saying 😊 I know the vaccine doesn’t stop you catching it and I know it wears off very quickly, as does the flu jab. Again, I know others ( some of my relatives) who caught covid about 3 months after their last booster, but experienced a mild cold and shivers. I suppose, we will never know if it would have been worse, had they not had the vaccine. We all take our chances 😊

Had my 4th recently - all Pfizer. I'm in persistent AF & take 5mg apixoban daily. I had a flu jag at the same time.

After effects were a slightly sore arm for a couple of days, and a very vague fluey feeling the next day (didn't feel quite right, slightly shivery, but nothing to speak of)

Otherwise no problems and no discernible effect on my heart rhythm.

Had it 5 days ago. Had Moderna No reaction - not even a sore arm.

Hi, I got mine (with the flu one) week past Saturday in the morning, had the usual sort of response I've been getting very fluey, aching joints and muscles, very sore arm fever - chills / shivers / sweats (nothing at all like the firct oAZ one - almost called 111 - maybe even 999 for that) My mum had hers at the same time, completely different story for her - she had mixed dementia and many other co-morbidities, I thought she was going to have to be hospitalised on Sunday early morning when I went down due to no repsonse to any contact (without going in to detail I was not prepared for the attack to all of my senses when I arrived - in a bit of sorry state myself)- started on the Saturday night for her with her delirum / confusion and then got worse - new symptoms were then arriving every day, her immune sytem went into overdrive (she is immunosuppressed due to conditions / meds etc). She has never had any response whatsover to previous covid jabs, not even the sore arm (she gets a sore arm with flu one) not even last winter when she got flu at the same time (as she did on this occasion) ...... now 10-11 days on she is almost back to normal - but not quite, not sure if this lasting thing on the long list of symptoms will leave her sadly.

I had 4th, Pfizer BioNTech on Saturday at same time as a Flu jab. Flu jab arm has been a bit sore but otherwise no other reactions 👍

Had the Moderna Spikevax exactly a week ago. My arm was v uncomfortable all week which is v unusual for me. Still getting the odd twinge and itch.

No obvious symptoms ( I was feverish for a couple of days with the previous booster) However, I did feel a bit short of breath … but that may just be my h hernia acting up!

I wasn’t going to bother as I’ve had all my jabs and had Covid twice - but off on holiday to Israel in 2 weeks so thought I would ensure I was fully up to date!

My first AZ gave me a sore arm for about 2 weeks, it wasn’t bad pain but it was a bit annoying. I didn’t have any systemic after effects with it, so overall I did OK with that one. I had 24h of full on flu symptoms with the Pfizer booster and then I was fine the next day.

Unfortunately, adverse effects of vaccines have been censored. People have not been reporting any problems to the regulators and when they did, they were ignored. Currently, too many vaccinated people have had adverse side effects and so that the information is now leaking out. Try to do your research with ALL sources and then make your decision. Most of the people who do the research have stopped getting booster shots based on the current information on vaccine side effects. They found the risk was not worth the reward.

I have heard the same! It is hard to find accurate information. There is definitely damage to many young men's hearts, and breast milk is being affected as well. Taking into account the new and proven advances in Covid treatments, i am taking a pass on more jabs. Many places worldwide are no longer requiring Covid passports. I think there are still too many questions to be answered. Time will tell.

Yes both of us had our fourth my wife had Moderna and I had Pfizer but I have also had Moderna in the previous injection cycle and my wife has had Pfizer, Moderna and Astra Zeneca. I had no problems with any of the 4 injections. My wife had Astra Zeneca as her first and was fatigued for around 24 to 36 hours and as she had the injection on a Friday afternoon with a wet and windy weekend following she had a lovely lazy weekend because of it :) . Since then with the Moderna and Pfizer she has had no problems. I didn't even have a sore arem with any of them and for one of them questioned if they had actually done anything - apparently this depends on the skill of the person giving the injection so we have always had skilled nurses/doctors giving us our injections - aren't we lucky. The nurse giving my wife her fourth injection asked which ones she had had previously and if she had had any problems and when she said she had had Astra Zeneca as her first injection and was fatigued afterwards the nurse said that the first injection was most likely to give side effects and as far as she knew Astra Zeneca was the most likely to cause this fatigue in her experience. Other than that no problems with AF or feeling at all under the weather and I don't personally know anyone who has had problems. Roll on the 5th injection - had my flu jab a week ago and never had any problems over the decades with that either.
