[jacobite33]

Afternoon folksJust got my COVID vaccine date last day of the 20/21 financial year 5th of April.Hope it’s not raining!

Just curious as to what the verdicts of you fine people are regarding vaccines and tinnitus sufferers?

Stay safe ladies and gents!

Thank you HappyRosie!

Glad you said arm,as,well, you know,tee tum tee tum,Persil make things white.Thought I would have to put a boil wash on the day before (sorry! Just my daft humour)

Sure I read somewhere on here about it making tinnitus worse.Not very good a navigating this site still!

Will see what pops up

Again thank you!

[jacobite33 in reply to rabbits65]

Why thank you rabbit!So,so far two tinnitus sufferers with no adverse symptoms

Looking good!

Take care

[rabbits65 in reply to jacobite33]

Any in any case far better to have a few symptoms from the vaccine than to have Covid 19 badly.

Morning Rabbit65

Yeh your probably right and it is common sense really.Only thing is I can get by with the tinnitus and global hum in both ears.Pulsate tinnitus is a different emotional and psychological thing for me long term altogether.Trying to deal with that all the time.Easily drive you insane! Just don’t fancy becoming a bunny boiler Rabbit65 to coin the phrase (Ooft to early for corny jokes!) Mine eventually eased and stopped after medication thank god! Came this far with following the guidelines so might just take my chances!

Have a lovely Friday tiz the start of the of weekend!

[rabbits65 in reply to jacobite33]

Do you mean your tinnitus is better now . You don’t want the vaccine to make it bad again.

[jacobite33 in reply to rabbits65]

Rabbit

No I can deal with it this way it’s hard but you get there!

I asked for zoplicon to try help sleep (that never helped either) and It became pulsate tinnitus in my right ear

Other people live with pulsate all the time and I have nothing but utter admiration in them being able to deal with it!

Went back to the normal high pitch in both ears like being behind an old valve tv after four days off the zoplicon

So concerned about the vaccine that’s all

Hi

Had the Pfizer jab in February apart from the sore arm no adverse effects and no problems regarding T. When I did get CoVid in early January however there was a noticeable spike. So I would say better off with the vaccine.

Thank you Barnabas!

[bantams]

Hi jacobite33, Had the Astra Zenenca jab 5 weeks ago today, no side effects and no difference to my Tinnitus, looking forward to my 2nd jab and hopefully get back to near normal living which I`m sure will improve living with Tinnitus.

[jacobite33]

Hey bantams thanks and hope your good!Been looking online and mostly about T and long COVID

Sure I read somewhere and thought it was on here that someone mentioned the vaccine making T worse

The sooner we get back the better!

Stay safe!

Still waiting for top priority people to receive their shots. Hope we do not have another delay for three weeks. These delays make me very concerned as people receiving their second shot will be well over the suggested time line of three weeks. Some places are extended their second shot for up to ninety days . I wonder if the effectiveness of the vaccine will be severely diminished as well as the variants that are now popping up.

At this time an insomniac like myself maybe

My wee mother is named Elsie she’s 86 and has had her first dose and the wee woman is doing great!

Its been a race and fine juggling act that they have never been on top of worldwide isn’t it

We individually can only wait and let it unfold

Always of the belief if you catch it you catch it

Don't get me wrong been sticking to the guidelines more so as I would hate to pass it to a more vulnerable person

[TayChi]

Hi. I had the AstraZeneka jab a week ago. No side effects...had no change in my tinnitus at all.

[jacobite33]

Taychi

Your name reminds me of the Tai Chi class I attended years ago.Got asked not to go back as he felt I interrupted the class with laughing and joking.Well I understood as you have to concentrate!

Thanks for your reply I appreciate it

Stay safe!
