No problems here, hubby had 2 x Astra Zeneca then Pfizer as booster - minor niggles afterwards for a day or so, bit more tired and washed out, wee headache. Nothing significant.

I’m 72 years old, and have had HCV over 40 years, cured 5 years ago with Harvoni, but liver was cirrhotic..now 8.2 on Fibroscan instead of 12 … do not drink except special occasions. Had my first and second jab of Pfizer sore arm, some fatigue day after. Had my booster 2 October 2021 sore arm..that’s it. Everyone I know has been fine..just rough at worst day or two afterwards. Better than getting covid full blown without jab. Booster is needed against omicron to give best immunity. You can still get it, but most are mild or rough for a few days (like a bad flu) before recovering. Most who have got covid really bad that I know and ended up,in hospital were not vaccinated or only 2 jabs and over 70.

Acj I saw your old post from 5 years ago. Is it correct that you had a 75kpa and are doing ok or did you get a transplant? Just curious.
