Sickness and headache went had a good night's sleep last night and today feel OK its worth it looking forward to my next one in May I had the Oxford one my wife has got hers Thursday she is my carer

That’s great news you have had your vaccine, I think it’s wonderful how quick they are getting through people 🤩

Its surprising 👍

[Carlt in reply to Flyby7]

What I found surprising was that the govt let the NHS deal with it rather than give the contract and millions of pounds to one of their mates. Its a pity that they didn't do the same for PPE distribution, and track and trace.

Take care .

Did you get the jab because of your Fibro. Trying to see if it is worth asking my GP or not to see if I was missed off

[LoneEra in reply to Flicbenn]

Unfortunately fibro alone isn’t enough to be bumped up the vaccination list. Some areas are getting through the age groups pretty quickly so hopefully you will get yours soon x

Hey I had the Oxford one approximately three weeks ago- I slept like a baby that evening and then had a temp and flu like feeling the next day for literally a day- apart from a achey/heavy arm which is only now feeling normal I have no regrets- I am 55 and am a key worker and I am so happy to have had the vaccine so I can safely carry out work duties - and I look forward to being able to hug my grandchildren - 2nd jab due in April

Good morning all.

My husband and i had ours Sunday morning.

Arm ached yesterday but gone today.

Very glad we had it, we had AstroZenica.

Had mine last Thursday, I'm 49 for a few more days 🙊 had the Pfizer one. Had sore arm for a day, then a fibro flare for a few days. But fingers crossed, worth it! No date for 2nd dose though

[Flyby7 in reply to SusieSquirrel]

My second one is in may

[Desperata in reply to Flyby7]

I had the AZ in January. About 12 hours later I awoke with teeth chattering chills. Following morning headache & sinus pain, very tired & painful arm. It was very like a sudden dose of flu.

On the 3rd day all gone & back to where I was before. The aches & bruised arm lasted about 3 weeks. I thought it was worth it & a lot better than getting the virus.
