My first three shots were all the Pfizer shot. Ive heard from some sources that its better to change that up. Would I be better off getting Moderna for my second booster, if I can find it? Thanks in advance.

Slightly better efficacy and mixing was fine.
I was already heavily leaning switching it up, but they had Pfizer on hand, too.
We got sick on booster 1 and now booster 2.
My elderly mom is M-M-P-M and she got sick on none, just arm sore.
