Had my first Oxford jab last week. Felt pretty crappy for 2/3 days. To the point, I was convinced I had Covid. Not looking forward to a repeat in 6 weeks or so. However, certainly preferable to the real thing.


Apparently, the Oxford makes you feel unwell on the first dose but not the second,  whereas the Pfizer is the opposite and makes you unwell on the second dose. I had the Pfizer, so got the second dose to look forward to.

I had the Oxford and it didn't affect me, my second dose is due in May. Sons wife had Pfizer and her second dose made her unwell, so I hope you will be ok with your 2nd dose. My wife had the Pfizer and no ill effects after the first dose, her 2nd one is in 2 weeks' time. So I'll have to see what happens with her.

Unfortunately, not. You're still likely to feel grotty with the second dose, despite prior infection. On the positive side of things, you ought to be left with really good protection against severe illness for a year or two - better than anybody who hasn't had both prior infection and the vaccine. Well worth a day or two in bed, if that's what you get.

Yes, a reaction after a vaccination is a good thing.  The body is testing and preparing defences against Covid.  Better prepared for the virus.

I felt really bad after my first vaccine (flu like symptoms and aching all over) but after 12 hours it subsided and I felt a lot better although my arm ached for 4/5 days, my wife had her second Pfizer jab last week and was ok with both, she felt slightly tired after each but was mainly ok, my next jab is due at the beginning of June.


Grimsby and proud!

My 2nd jab is a week tomorrow, Pfizer vaccine and the first jab left me with no side effects at all, but I have heard from colleagues at work that their 2nd Pfizer jab made them quite unwell, so I am prepared for that, I will make sure I have some Paracetamol on the ready aswell if needed!

Hope everything goes well for you.

But if not forget the para's; 2/3 pints of Guinness, followed by 2 large glasses of red wine. If you are still worried then 2 very good stiff whisky's. In the morning consider the paracetamols then.

Had my second pfizer jab last week Wednesday and felt like absolute crap for a couple of days. Hopefully suggesting that I have a very robust immune response to the virus now though.
