2nd dose of Pfizer today

[Delarage]

In Dover, DE. I felt the needle this time, but just like a standard flu shot. No issues thus far....but it was only 5 hours ago.

Waited in the drive-thru event for about 30 minutes.

Thought about Trump and the hundreds of thousands of people who died b/c of his inaction and/or counterproductivity and general assholism. I hope that we, as a nation, have learned from this.

1. Awesome

I got mine on Tuesday and my arm was sore for about 3 days. No other problems, and it sure beats getting Covid!

[Delarage]

19. Definitely!

And glad you had mild symptoms! I just had a sore arm after the first dose, so we shall see.....

2. Pfizer seems to be easier on the 2nd than the Merdorna.

My wife had a sore arm. That's it.

8. My fist Pfizer was worse than the second.

First shot: headache, severe fatigue, sore arm
Second shot: sore heavy arm, mild fatigue but feeling of wooziness.

Overall, nothing like wat I’d expected. Just happy and relieved.

3. Any reaction? Had my first last week --extreme exhaustion for 2 days.

..Take care out there! Son who works in healthcare says we are not out of the woods--still need to be very cautious bc asshole antivaxers and covid deniers [republikkklans don't give a fuck about the rest of us.

7. Had the same reaction. Spent the better part on 2 days on the couch. n/t

15. Nothing yet

But I was in a Wawa near Lancaster PA yesterday and there was a group of people not wearing masks. Looked like moronic Trumpers. So idiots out there can screw it up for everyone.

4. Congrats.

My second pfizer last Tuesday. Fever and fatigue, one day and better than ever. Good luck.

16. Thanks! nt

5. Good to know, and to prepare!

I have stocked up on chicken broth and soda crackers just in case. Spouse and I have our second shots two days apart. One of us had Moderna, the other Pfizer.

I am more concerned about me. I received a senior flu shot once, and it leveled me for a day.

[Delarage]

17. I went shopping the other day

And loaded up on all my comfort foods and ginger ale in case I feel sick. I'm planning on staying in all day. Anything I accomplish will be a bonus in my book!

6. I was fine after my second Pfizer..my arm was a little sore. My husband

had a tough time. He was wearing sweats, hat and wrapped in a blanket. He was still cold and shivering. He kept groaning because his body ached. I think it lasted about 24 hrs. Then he had a headache for a bit. Three days later and he is finally 100%. Good thing because today is his birthday.

9. Congratulations

10. Welcome to the club.

[Generic Brad]

11. I had mine yesterday

Today I have had every single side effect listed except for fever.

Headache? Check.
Fatigue? Check
Joint Pain? Check
Chills? Check.

To top it off, my stomach is extremely upset and all I have been able to hold down today have been 4 soda crackers.

If my body is reacting like this to the vaccine, it makes me wonder if I would have wound up in the hospital if I had caught the actual virus.

Get your shots, people.

[Delarage]

20. Eek!

Sorry you have all that--but hopefully they go away soon!

I had the flu once and after about 5 days of vomiting and exhaustion all I wanted was tater tots and scrambled eggs. So I have them on hand just in case. Those were some dark days---usually I'm a big multi-tasker, but on those days I remember thinking "Maybe I'll get up in an hour or so and go open that curtain. Then I go back to bed and rest."

22. 12 hours later - all is normal again

It was an unpleasant day, but I’m feeling normal again.

[SilverDawg]

12. Congratulations!

I had my 2nd Pfizer last Monday with NO issues! (other than a sore arm)

on edit: I should include I was sleepy all the next day and slept a lot. But never uncomfortable with aches and chills, etc.

[NightWatcher]

13. I'll follow this thread. I get P#2 Monday.

All I felt with the first one was a sore (heavy) arm for a day or so.



And I forgot. Congrats!

[Delarage]

18. Me, too.

And thanks

I hear the second is worse for people who have bad reactions, so I'll see how it is tomorrow!

Regardless---I'm very glad to have gotten it.

[triron]

14. Hey, me too. In Albuquerque.

Went for an hour hike right afterward. No problemo.

[Demovictory9]

21. my 2nd dose was two days ago

[mshasta]

23. 2nd dose Pfizer ...sick two days

First arm sore, follow by body aches, temperature, next day upset stomach, very... very tired tired day better .


Very happy

24. Had Pfizer No. 1 yesterday.

So far nothing major in terms of side effects. Spot of injection is slightly tender. Maybe mild fatigue--took about a half hour nap today.

Other than that, nothing. Swam 1000 yards in the pool like nothing had happened.

I will say that last night I felt...well, good. Almost like a slight buzz--the kind you get after a beer or two. Not sure if that had anything to do with the shot or if it was just a placebo effect but wasn't expecting that.

[DrToast]

25. If you're gonna feel it, it'll be tomorrow.

I felt fine the day of my second Moderna shot. On Day 2, I felt like crap. By day 3, I was good as new.
