Generally ok, or did you feel quite rough for a while? |  |

Had the Moderna booster...nearly passed out on the same evening I had it and spent most of the night with the shakes. It felt like someone was consistently chucking buckets of ice on me, despite the fact I was sweating. The next day I felt achey and could hardly move without feeling tired but by the evening I was pretty much back to normal.
Really strange as I had the Pfizer for the 1st and 2nd Jabs and was absolutely fine. I don't normally get ill either so was a bit of a shock to the system to be honest! |  | | |

Had mine yesterday - Moderna. Achy arm this morning and bit lethargic, but nothing too serious. |  |

Ouch!
Got mine this afternoon. Had Pfizer for the first two with no ill effects so hoping for Pfizer again... |  |

Moderna booster <1 month ago, first 2 Pfizer. I'm mid-50s, a tubby bloke but fairly fit otherwise.
No issues with the Pfizer jabs. Day after Moderna I was not good, felt like I'd been run over, everything hurt. Back to normal the next day but arm still feels not 100%, and like I said, it was nearly 4 weeks ago I had it. Still would have it again, of course.
My younger sister who got her third jab 3 weeks ago has just come down with Covid and feels rough, so I'd hate to think how she'd be without it (she's v healthy generally).
So, get your boosters people. A small amount of pain - IF that happens to you afterwards - is well, well worth the gain. |  | | |

I think it depends on which vaccines you had for doses 1 and 2.
Anecdotally, I know two people who have had AZ x2 and then Pfizer for the booster who reported quite a sore arm for 2-3 days.
Personally, after AZ (first dose, 2 days of feeling really ill), Pfizer (second dose, a day of feeling wobbly), I found the Pfizer booster to be barely noticeable.
I guess we're all different - the most important thing is to get the booster and yes, take a day off just in case. |
"AZ x2 and then Pfizer for the booster who reported quite a sore arm for 2-3 days"
That was the case for me (couldn't lift arm above shoulder for 24 hrs after Pf booster, but it went off quickly after that, so no problem).
One really weird thing tho was that one evening 5 weeks after the booster, suddenly felt totally wiped out, had tight chest, and got the arm-ache all over again - for half an hour! Was fine again after that, very strange. |  |

Are you me? Exactly the same jabs and exactly the same reactions/non reactions. The moderna booster felt like full blown flu and prompted me to get my flu jab booked as I'd forgotten just how debilitating it can be. |
haha. The booster wasn't fun last night but I'm ok now.
AZ round 1 was definitely the worst for me, that felt like full on flu for 24 hours and took me a whole week to recover from.
I think some people forget how bad flu can be (if they've ever actually had it). Fortunately I've only ever had flu once in my 30s...I didn't move for a whole week, and my temp was so high I ended up in hospital for 24 hours. Worst I've ever felt and not something i want to go through again |  |

Yeah wasn't pleasant! I was recommended the Moderna as I had the Pfizer for the first two but the missus has Pfizer for all three (much to her relief after seeing the state of me) | | | |

Sore arm but nothing else (although I had a pretty killer hangover so hard to tell!) |  |

Had Pfizer as my booster (was supposed to be Moderna but they ran out).
Shivers through the night which was suboptimal but seemingly fine now except an achy arm of course.

Had Pfizer a couple of hours ago, I'll let you know. Supposed to be up for work at 5 in the morning so hopefully no issues. |
Update to say I felt like I had been hit by a bus last night, haven't gone to work today and have very achey muscles and joints, does feel like it's starting to improve a little now.
Had the shivers for 2 or 3 hours too, but that passed quite quickly.
No regrets though. |  |

Are you sure that wasn’t the 10 pints of Ghost Ship and 5 double scotches? |  | | |

Had Moderna for the first two shots, and felt fine. Had Pfizer for my booster a couple of days ago. Started running a fewer after 5 hours, and felt nauseous for about 12 hours. Back to normal after 36 hours. It was my first time running a fewer in well over 10 years, so was pretty rough. |  | | |

31, overweight but pretty fit.
Had Pfizer x2 back in the summer, no side effects.
Had Moderna booster at 3.45pm yesterday. 16 hours on and the only side effect is a slightly sore/tender arm at the injection site. All good, hoping I've dodged anything worse. | |
