Pfizer side effects - am I going to die?

8 Replies

I didn’t know where else to post this.

The vaccine triggered my period, which has been more painful than usual and hot water bottles and ibuprofen doesn’t seem to do much .. which is unusual because it usually works wonders for me.

I received the vaccine on Friday. I just had a weak arm and it was a bit sore.

On Saturday, I felt nauseous and my body was trembling a bit. I got up to go downstairs and after standing up for several minutes, my vision started to disappear and I got really hot and my hearing went too. I was about to faint. I had one sandwich to eat that day.

On Sunday, I vomited 3 times. I only had orange juice and I couldn’t keep it down. I had no appetite whatsoever.

My heart is racing constantly, I’ve got a fast heart rate anyway but it’s more than usual. It got worse when I got up. So, I’m bed ridden.

It sounds dramatic but I don’t think this will subside any time soon, as it’s only getting worse. I’m thinking of phoning 111. Please help. I’m 19.

All adverse reactios must be reported to the MHRA Yellow Card on yellowcard.mhra.gov.uk.Dont wait for someone else to report. Under reporting only leads to side effects not being recognised. I do hope you can get medical help and soon improve.

My daughter had the same issue but it eased after a couple of day but her period lasted for about 5 weeks, she had test done just to be sure, but it’s better than getting covid
