Had a negative Hep A AB test in December and a positive one last week. No symptoms but did have both shots of Moderna during that period. Being retested in 6 weeks.

I've had both Pfizer shots by April 7 and just had my LFTs done and am still within range on all markers.

I had both Pfizer shots last one on 4/24 and had my lfts checked before and after because I was having kidney and liver pain after the second. (could be unrelated)My lfts were actually a tad lower. I have had stomach pain immediately following the first shot and it continued to worsen so I went for a scan (still waiting for results).

I had the same pain 2 days after my 1st Moderna vaccine. I was very tired and rundown. Never had pain that severe in that area before vaccine. Went to Gastro and was scheduled for ultrasound which showed dilated bile duct. Followed up with MRI which confirmed dilated bile duct. No stones or malignancies All bloodwork was normal. More bloodwork in 3 months. No pain in that area after second vaccine which I contemplated not getting because I was so ill after first one.
