COVID vaccine: who has had it?

[odshowtime]

I still can't believe how easy this all was. I got an appointment the first time I tried to, then walked right in and out with no wait. That was my first encounter with covid logistics.

It wasn't even crowded. I was kickin' it with the Fire Lieutenant and he was cool AF.

Getting the Moderna vac tomorrow, which arm should I get it in? Dominant or non-dominant arm? lol

I got mine in non dominant , not much if any pain in that arm. Now last night the other arm hurt like hell. IDK why

Got my 2nd Pfizer shot last week. Arm hurt like hell for 12 hrs. Wife got J&J three weeks ago with no issues.

If you sleep on your side, get the shot in the arm that you don’t sleep on.

 

[odshowtime]

My arm hurts.

 

[Air Force 1]

I will not be taking the shot. If I can’t travel or buy things oh well. I’ll live thru it or not.

 

[LionsandBear]

My wife got the J&J with minimal side effects. I got the 1st of 2 Moderna shots and I had a couple of side effects. I had a low grade headache, arm pain, fatigue and after 2 days my arm pit was really tender. I'm a little worried about the 2nd shot. Thankfully I have 2 days off after I get the 2nd shot.

 

[marshall23]

Got my second dose of Pfizer this morning at 10:05. So far no side effects.

The sarcasm font didn't work.

Not sarcasm....I’m serious. I got mine in the left arm because I’m right handed....but I sleep on my left side....that first night sucked.

It would been a great shirt if it read: "I got the Vaccine. Did You?

I like this T-shirt:

I’m screwed. I sleep on each side at some point during the night.

 

[interrobang]

I got mine in the left arm because that arm was closest to the practitioner at the drive through clinic

Definitely screwed.

Got a second dose of Moderna about 8 hours ago. In general I feel slightly annoyed and vaguely dissatisfied, so no side effects from the vaccine at all.

 

[psu_83_drummer]

Got my Pfizer booster yesterday at 11:20. Just some soreness in my deltoid (applied an ice pack) and a slight headache last evening. Tylenol knocked that out. Feeling fine this morning.

 

[PSU0622]

If you want to make an omelet, you have to break some eggs.

I was sick, very sick for 24 hours following both Moderna Shots. Chills, fever, throwing up, tired as all get out. However, it does go away at about the 24 hour mark. Is it fun, no.....but the end result hopefully allows us to go back to things the way they were to some point and that's why I got the shot. covid can kill, the numbers prove that (although we will never know the true numbers of this thing). But I got the shot to go back to normal, not to avoid the virus.

I got my second Pfizer shot yesterday and am experiencing this now. Sickest I have been in a very long time. Was not expecting my ass to get kicked this badly.

J&J on Tuesday. Wednesday morning about 4:00 AM woke up with cold sweat. Woke up again at 6:30 and all is good. No other side effects. Got in dominant arm as they tell you to.

Wife and I got J&J Sunday at 2, overnight we both had issues, me with chills, her with sweats. Had low fevers and achiness all day Monday. All better come Tuesday at wake up.

Just now got my second Pfizer.

If she was hot shoulda made her reach around to the other side.

 

[MacNit07]

For the greater audience. Information sharing. Any side effects? Any issues?

got mine tonight. Wife got hers 3 days ago. No side effects or issues for her, nothing initially for me but I’ll report back if we get anything.

Phizer #1 for my wife and two oldest daughters yesterday (phone call from clinic early in morning: “use it or lose it...please come down ASAP”).

Girls all had mildly sore arms and some minor fatigue. Me? Nothing...just like when I get flu shot. Hopefully will hold true in one month for shot #2.

 

[jim cummings]

I received the first Pfizer and will get my 2nd dose next Friday. Minor pain in the non dominant arm. The process was a breeze.

 

[SLUPSU]

Got my first Moderna shot yesterday afternoon with no side effects so far.

 

[RGWhirly]

J&J tomorrow. Will provide some updates.

I'm 50 and so is my wife. My son is 21 and my daughter is 18. We are all in phase 2. We went online last week to register for the waiting list as soon as the governor announced we could get it starting on 4/19. Today our hospital called us to set up appointments for next week. We told them we weren't eligible yet but the nurse said they had so many vaccines available that they wanted to schedule us so we spent 10 minutes with her coming up with reasons why we were eligible just so they could get us signed up. I'm happy to be getting it but this system is crazy.

Yeah. I got mine last Saturday by calling around to pharmacies. I had signed up through the state two weeks ago. Got an email today that I am now eligible per state requirements and referenced me to the local mass vaccination site and sati they have appointments available now. So definitely appears that they need to open up to everyone now as literally they have open appointments that they cannot fill.

 

[RGWhirly]

24 hrs since J&J. No issues so far, fingers crossed for no surprises or start feeling bad over next 24 for wife and I.

Hope today finds you better.

 

[PSU0622]

Hope today finds you better.

I appreciate that. I am back to 100% today. I was better for the most part Saturday, but the fever and chills came back at night which was somewhat of a shock. Glad it is over with.

Since they define "side effects" as basically those of an immune response - essentially what you want in a vaccine, I'm not so sure that they are a bad thing.

 

[lionville]

Got my J&J vaccine 11 AM yesterday. All was well until 1 am this morning. Chills, muscle aches came on pretty quickly. Took some Tylenol and feeling better.

Having had Covid back in December, the side effects of the shot are worse than anything I experienced with the virus.

I realize what I’m experiencing is the immune system reaction, it’s just weird that it’s worse than when I was fighting the actual virus.

 

[wilbury]

Moderna on 4/7. No side effects for me or my family other than a mildly sore injection site for maybe 24-36 hours. Second shot scheduled for 5/5.
