Jj / Emmie, & Whoever Else Had Jab Yesterday Or Today.....

[Smowball]

How are we all feeling?? I don’t feel fluey - yet, but am feeling incredibly tired, and my arm is a bit sore. Hopefully that will be all and won’t feel any worse later on x

[emmie]

possibly, having reread the leaflet it gives the possible side effects, and mine along with others on ab are there...

[Bobbisox1]

Yes, I read it so I wasn't scared but as Pooka says, it's a whole different ball game when you are on your own

[emmie]

it is, i didn't honestly know what to do, three hours of this horrid shaking - i didn't really want to bother 111 but i think if it had continued i might have done, just for advice.

[emmie]

we weren't given the leaflet till after the vaccination, just asked if one had any allergies, yes to penicillin, and if taking warfarin, no to that.

[Stickybottle]

Am I making too bold a statement by saying that it appears to be mainly females who suffer the ‘terrible’ side effects of these vaccines? Just a genuine question as I’ve not heard any such like from males

[Sqad]

Sticky......right on the money,it seems to be a female phenomenon i don't know why.

[emmie]

no idea why either...

[Bobbisox1]

Errr could it be we are built differently?

[emmie]

it does seem as though its been us ladies who have had side effects, strange that...

[DTCwordfan]

my bro in law had a slight reaction - fatigue.

I'm no immunologist but, as I understand it, the second one should be easier on you as the body has built the antibodies to cope, whereas the first one is in virgin territory - so therefore think of the second one as a top off.....

[emmie]

and a possible third being talked about.... dtc

[jennyjoan]

fao Emmie - emmie when I said about teeth clattering onto the floor I certainly didn't mean yours - as you know I have had implants, crowns a lot of work done to my teeth in the last year or so and so I personally meant if I had have had the clattering it would have been my own teeth.

I know you were frightened of that side effect and I am apologising if I hurt you in any way. But I did mean me.

[Bobbisox1]

JJ, you are such a lovely lady and I could not imagine you hurting anyone deliberately nor seeing Emmie take offence, I thought it was very funny :0)

[jennyjoan]

thanks Bobbs - but emmie is coming across very very down and I wouldn't have liked me to have made her worse. (bad grammar there)

[Bobbisox1]

I'm sure Emmie doesn't take any offence JJ

[MartinMillar]

@ Sqad gotta love a drama

[Smowball]

My top left arm has become incredibly painful in the last couple of hours - I can barely touch it, but nothing to actually see.

[chrissa1]

I haven’t got a sore arm at all but about an hour ago, I had to turn the heating down, as I was feeling hot.

I’m not so hot now but I can feel my legs “glowing.” It’s quite a pleasant feeling.

Shows it’s doing it’s stuff.

I’m having the Oxford vaccine this Thursday at 2pm. I shall update any side effects if experienced. So will my wife, ditto.

[chrissa1]

I had the Pfizer this morning.
