Yes, nothing directly following vaccine but the following day flu-like symptoms (felt like I was hit by a truck) and my chest was really tight and I was quite breathless needing ventolin inhaler more than usual throughout the day but day 2 post-vaccine and feeling not as bad.

I had the Oxford AZ vaccine 7 weeks ago and, if anything, my Ventolin use has gone right down. After the initial flu like symptoms and tiredness I felt really well.

No flu type side effects from my AZ Oxford jab. Just niggling forehead headache for three days. Only took 7 paracetomols during those three days.

Nothing untoward. Slight flu likes ymptoms were very welcome actually. The alternative of catching covid makes my 2 days off parr pale in to insignificance. Go Astrazeneca, marvellous!

Completely agree! I had the same, two days of a taster of covid and I thought this is a nasty disease if this is what it feels like in a small dose no wonder people are dying.Yes, Go AZ! Go UK!

I had my Astrazenca yesterday am and felt very tired from early evening, then terrible chills and fever, felt awful all night but paracetamol has helped and starting to feel better through today, with the headache lingering. Just also very glad there is a vaccine and I've had it. Kept using my usual fostair and nothing to note as of yet.

I had the AZ vaccine earlier this week. Had a headache for 24 hours afterwards and then general tired fuzzy feeling. Small price to pay for the jab’s protection though :) Hasn’t seemed to have had an impact on my asthma

Hi GoodfellowsI hope that all these months later you’re recovered?

(We exchanged briefly several months ago re possible Saharan dust trigger).

Unfortunately 7 months on from my first COVID vaccine and I’ve had very little improvement in my health in spite of increased medication....
