astra/zeneca jab

[chubchaser]

i don't know about any of you lads but i fealt rough for a couple of days after having it.i've been hearing all sorts of stories from my mates about feeling sick headaches and even swollen glands.the pfizer jab seems to have less side effects from what i'm hearing.any of you lads had any issues with it?

I had the Astra Zeneca one because of anaphylaxis concerns with the Pfizer one.
I just had a bit of headache the next day but nothing to worry about and a very small price to pay for some protection against covid.

Zero side effects here other than a slightly sore arm, looking forward to my second dose in early May

I had no real problems with it my wife felt ill for about a week but she has underlying conditions and takes medication that can cause prolems with all vacinations but like rich says worth the feeling a bit .hope you soon feel better.

I had the AZ jab and that night had high temp and was achy for a couple of days but soon passed. From what they are saying this is normal and the more reaction you have to the first jab the second is better.

It's the other way round for the Pfizer one

Yes I was Ill for 24 hours. It came on about 9 hours after and then went the next day, was a bit like mini flu

[bra1n]

second jab felt a bit 'achey/fluey' for a day then fine

[BOF]

For me no problem with either jab on the Astra / Zeneca. For her indoors just a slight "flu-ish" feeling for 36 hours after the second one, then all was well.

Simply put just go for it and f***K the doom sayers.

It's like that huge furor about the so called side effects of the combined MMR jab, all caused by one doctor that wanted to be paid for administering 3 separate jabs instead of one combined dose.
