AstraZeneca and autoimmune flare?

Hello! Have any of you had any autoimmune flare ups from the AZ vaccine? I am 100% NOT anti vax and this is a genuine question not a debate about vaccines. I’m glad I’ve had mine but hashi/ endometriosis have reared their ugly heads in a brutal way after the first jab so I’m interested to know other people’s experiences. I had Covid last year so maybe thinking my body is going into immunity overdrive. And yes in spite of this I am planning to have my 2nd shot because I want to get out and cuddle my loved ones and get back to life! Thanks in advance... 🙏🏾

Lots of people have had unpleasant side effects - some have had none.

There’s a thread here healthunlocked.com/thyroidu... where people have shared their experiences.

Piggyoink,Did you report your experience on our vaccine poll here? healthunlocked.com/thyroidu...

You will see that many here have had negative expereinces with their first shot. We also have a poll for the second shot here healthunlocked.com/thyroidu...

Whether these experiences are actually autoimmune flares is a question that none of us can really be sure of.

We are trying to keep all reports of vaccine expereinces in the same place. That way, it's so much easier for everyone to see, rather than having umpteen threads scattered around the forum. Hence closing this post to further comments :)
