@zombifiedguy Im sorry to hear you’ve been feeling so low. Regarding:

It’s now within the rules to sit on a park bench and chat with one other person. Is this something you could do? I know it doesn’t sound much but I did this with my mum last week (took a coffee) and it really gave me a lift.

I also have my first vaccine booked for this week, Friday, and am hoping I don’t react badly :crossed_fingers:. I’ve read that ‘younger’ people tend to react more to the AstraZeneca but not sure what counts as ‘younger’ in that context!

I got the Pfizer vaccine two weeks ago, no reaction but has left OH’s arm bruised and tender where she got it. Been told will have a reaction to the 2nd jab, get it in May.

AstraZenica for me back at the end of Feb. i felt knackered the following day but that was all and within 48 hours was back to normal. Hopefully the bad effects only effect a small number of people

I’ve had my vaccine a few weeks ago. I had the Pfizer one, a few minor side effects but nothing awful. Tired and a bit confused for some reason but then I have ME so tiredness and brain fog is my usual state so I guess this wouldn’t be unexpected! Hope it goes OK for you all x

I had the Pfizer and for me it was a dead arm and feeling really tired, the dead arm was the worst because it was hard to sleep.

Anyone who is getting theirs done my suggestion would be to take painkillers as soon as you have had it done regardless of how you are feeling.

I could’ve had the jab weeks ago, made appointments and then I cancelled. I don’t know what’s stopping me from getting it done. I have no valid reason at all. :no_mouth:

a few neighbours had the AZ ones, and a few headaches days after, then it’s gone, maybe not as bad as what the paper reported

Just had the Astra-Zeneca one about 90 minutes ago, as i tend to sleep on my stomach or left side, i asked for it in my right arm, so if i get the painful arm, it shouldn’t affect my sleep.

Going to work on very little sleep this morning… woke up at 3am to the cat deciding to give me a present of a poor little mouse. I managed to get them both down the stairs and to the back door but then lost the mouse. I’m guessing behind the washing machine. Going to work knowing there’s a mouse in my kitchen somewhere and I can’t deal with it until 3pm :weary:
