I am always dose adjusting, same old for years. After 2nd dose Pfizer I was in trouble 2 weeks later with speed-like symptoms on usual 100/ 75 mcg alternative days. GP dropped dosing to 75mcg .. sleeping normalizing getting more than 5 hrs nightly finally!, shaking slowing down and palpitations subsiding. Started to race around 2 weeks after the 2nd dose vax. Never felt as wiped out pre this, why I am reaching out..hopefully, someone had the same thing? or ..It may be just me getting an adverse reaction on this? I have never done a drop on this level on the continued lower dose, purely because adjustments have usually been between 2 doses over yrs.. Lots of flatulence, and toilet runs in conjunction. The funny thing is as lung patient the reaction is minimal..nothing! Hope someone else can help out here, bloods to be run again Aug. Thanks for the input in advance.

Do make a Yellow Card report - it is realistically the only way we can report back.

Also, there is advice as to contacting your GP (or wheoever) if you have unusual symptoms, or they don't resolve reasonably quickly. It definitely reads as if that applies to you.

Not what you're looking for?
