Today had my vaccine!!!

Now looking forward to getting the second one and better times ahead for everyone.

In need of some warmer days to sit out in the sunshine.

Best medicine there is for the bones and our aches and pains.

Spring will soon be here. Xx

Wow! Lucky you. Was speaking to my neighbour today, she’s a consultant anaesthetist, she said she’d had hers and I asked if she’d had both and she said just the first one but she was pretty confident that the first one would be pretty effective- which made me feel more confident too but I can’t wait to be like you and have both.

PA - we both had the Pfizer one.

Thank you for sharing with me, Yes I think the first vaccine will give us pretty good protection.

The best thing about the vaccines is that it will protect us from becoming very ill and having to go to hospital.

I too had the Pfizer vaccine, my husband took me but was unable to have his at the same time owing to the fact he is 67 and falls in the next group.

Was both dissapointed with that, but he should not have to wait long now.

I am 66 but have had to shield.

Well take care and let me know when you get your second.

Just realized think you may be of the misunderstanding I have had both!!!

I am not that lucky ( you should know what my lucks like lol.)

No, I realised you had had your first one but I knew you were waiting for it. When I asked my neighbour if she’d had both she didn’t give the impression she was waiting for her next one (I am!) she seemed to feel that the first was pretty protective and I know that she’s working in contact with covid patients at the moment too - so if she’s happy, I’m happy . Will definitely keep you posted when I get my booster shot. 😊.

That is good news.

I have mine on Friday with next one on 7th May. I wasn't going to have it as have reaction to flu jab, but changed my mind since my grandson aged 26 ended up in hospital with covid pneumonia.

Take care.

Hi and sorry for not replying yesterday evening I was in even more pain than usual.

(Nerve pain from the fractures)

What a worry it must have been to have your Grandson ill in hospital with Covid pneumonia.

My eldest Grandson is 23 so I have a good idea how it will have affected you.

I am pleased to hear you will be getting your vaccine, and understand your apprehension, you have made the right choice by having it though and I hope it goes well for you.

I had a terrible headache for 24 hrs and woke in the night with it, a very stiff sore arm which is now improving and has begun to itch.

Some joint pain in my lower legs.

A small price to pay for getting protection from Covid 19.

Have you got your second vaccine booked in??

I was told I would be contacted when my next one is due.

Take good care x

It's very encouraging to hear you sounding so cheerful, I had my vaccine last month, also looking forward to second one. Yes, roll on spring and warmer weather. Take care.
