Hi GD,

Like you, I had the Oxford jab nearly 4 weeks ago. I too am on Ibrutinib.

Like you, I had side effects of nausea, headache and tiredness after the jab. I also had slight fevers and brain fog. The fevers stopped after about a week, but the other symptoms continued for about 3 weeks, and have only now gone away. (Well I'm still tired and brain-foggy but I think that was happening before the jab. )

I'm glad I've got a 12 weeks gap between jabs, not the 3 weeks that was first suggested.

I hope that like with me, your side effects will now ease off.

Paula
