Spryte Posted November 2, 2021 Author Share Posted November 2, 2021 7 minutes ago, Lady Florida. said: @Spryte I'm glad to hear you're feeling better. Update on mine: I had my Moderna booster around 1:30 pm yesterday. Last night I was cold all night and chalked it up to being a wimpy Floridian as our nighttime temperature fell below 70F. However, I've had some chills today too so now I'm pretty sure last night was a side effect of the vaccine. I have that sensitive skin feeling that makes your clothes hurt (I usually get that when I have a cold), I'm achy, and depending on which ear I choose I either have a fever of 101.7 or 100.1. My normal body temperature runs around 97.6-97.9, so this is a bit of a fever for me. I do actually feel okay, not tired or out of energy. It seems weird to have the above symptoms yet feel fine. Oh, and my arm is mildly sore but nothing like the second shot. That one made my arm nearly useless for almost two weeks. I hope you feel better and better. Glad you got your booster! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlett Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 I had mine yesterday at about 5:00 p.m. Moderna. My arm is sore from the tops of my shoulder on into my neck/back and down to my hand. Very sore. I had chills earlier but took 800 mg of ibuprofin and feel better but now I am sooooo sleepy. I am hoping this is the worst of it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amira Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 I had my Pfizer booster yesterday. I didn’t have any side effects besides a sore arm for the first two shots. My arm wasn’t at all sore this time, and again, no other side effects. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jen500 Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 I got a Moderna booster on Monday evening. Tuesday I felt nauseous and extremely tired.

JFSinIL Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 My update from Monday mornings Moderna booster - spent Tuesday largely huddled under a blanket watching Netflix, as felt the fake flu symptoms of small fever, aches in legs, tiredness etc - but not nearly as debilitating as original shots! Did get up to do dishes, laundry, etc in spurts before going back to rest. Fine today. Arm never ached. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Selkie Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Dh and I got our Moderna boosters yesterday morning. With each of the first two shots, I had about 24 hours of chills and aches and a very sore arm. This time, I'm not having any symptoms other than a mildly achy arm. I was tired yesterday, but I think that's because I was up most of the night before tending to a horse. Dh had absolutely no reaction to the first two shots, but he's feeling cruddy after the booster. He's chilly and achy and said his sleep was very restless last night.

I still need to do my 2nd shot and the 1st left me with so much inflammation I developed viral pneumonia with the first teeny weeny upper respiratory virus. I'm still only 65% energy level from that, sigh. And my doc had ZERO offers of anything we'd do with the next one to take down inflammation.

I took ibuprofen, but I think I waited 2-3 days. I never felt better till I got the prednisione 6 weeks later. However maybe I needed to take *more*? What’s high for me won’t be high for you. I normally do not take NSAIDS at all, per this doc. She had me take 600 mg ibuprofen am and pm. Voltaren gel twice daily and lidocaine patches for pain. This was the GI doc, who treated me in hospital after the first round, and the follow up is coming up soon. I am, however, feeling better. I have not seen my regular PCP, who may have more ideas on inflammation. As for waiting — yes, I waited. Again, though, I don’t take NSAIDS at all normally so I’m not a good comparison. It’s somewhere in this thread, but I had my initial side effects and then the alleged inflammation kicked in maybe a week post-shot, a few days after the side effects were mostly gone. I saw the GI doc soon after that and started her plan. I’m still sleeping with a heating pad, but mostly pain free now. But, yeh, I think I would start the NSAIDS earlier next time. The issue, for me, is that taking NSAIDS like this means a doc needs to order a liver panel, so it’s a PITA. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really glad your dd was able to get one, but sad that it had to be done in a way that made her feel badly. I do check our state health department every other day to see if I qualify yet. My dh is undergoing cancer treatments plus multiple TBI-related appointments every week, and cannot drive himself. So it's kind of weird that I don't qualify! But our state has always closely followed CDC policies. So far they are telling me no... Hopefully that will change soon! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pharmacy where we got our shots is not being picky about who can get boosters. Dh and I had to sign a form saying we were eligible, but we did not have to specify the reason and nobody asked. They were swamped with adults of all ages getting boosters. I asked the tech about whether my three healthy college kids could get boosters, and she said yes. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TCB Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 I got a Moderna booster on Tuesday and so far only side effect was a sore arm for the first 24 hours. My fingers felt a bit tingly for a few hours, but, then again, if I was busy doing something I forgot all about it, so maybe that was mostly in my head. I had Pfizer for the first 2, had a sore arm, and then 5 days after the first dose felt totally exhausted for a day, so exhausted that I went and got tested for Covid, but it was negative. Waiting to see if anything happens in the next few days. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shoeless Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Have my booster scheduled for Monday! I am a little nervous. I seem to have developed some shot anxiety lately.

Terabith Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 (edited) I got Pfizer for initial series but got Moderna booster at 1 pm last night. Then I chaperoned a choir concert that involved sitting on the ground for several hours in 40 degree weather and just a sweater because I was an idiot. I had pretty bad chills by the time I got home that didn’t clear up with heat, soup, or hot shower. Became clear I have a fever. I’m taking ibuprofen but still VERY achy, pounding head, alternating chills and hot, exhausted but can’t sleep, but kinda dizzy when I try to get up. Can’t drive safely so husband is taking Cat to school. I feel like I have a bad case of flu. Hopefully it will go away soon.

Danae Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 21 hours post-booster. My arm is very sore. The skin feels stretched like it’s swollen even though I don’t see any swelling, it’s stiff all the way down to my wrist, and it feels like someone is poking me in the armpit with a stick. Headache, about the level of a mild dehydration headache. (Might even be a mild dehydration headache since I forgot to intentionally drink extra yesterday and was really busy so probably drank less than normal.) 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terabith Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 My side effects were really only pronounced for about 3-4 hours, though I slept a lot yesterday. I felt fine when I got up this morning, tho I'm starting to feel kinda chilled and achy again, so I might take another dose of ibuprofen. Totally worth it for increased immunity! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danae Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 My arm is still slightly sore, but notably better this morning. No other symptoms.

Junie Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 I got a full-strength Moderna for my 3rd dose this morning. I had Pfizer for the first two. They double-checked with me twice to make sure that this was what I wanted. They were puzzled when I asked for a full-strength Moderna and asked if I was immunocompromised. Yep.

Junie Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 So the ickiness kicked in earlier than I was expecting (about 9 hours post Moderna). I was shopping with dd17 and started feeling hot, so I put my coat in the cart. That was fine until we were checking out 15 minutes later. I felt feverish and lethargic. I thought that I might have to call dh to come get us (dd17 doesn't drive yet because of the covid year). We sat in the car with a window down for about 5 minutes and I felt much improved. I was able to drive home without any problems. I have no fever, but I'm exhausted. I think I will take a shower and go to bed early. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEmama Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 DH got his second shingles vax and his booster yesterday around noon. He felt fine all day, maybe a little tired but didn’t even take a nap.

His booster was Pfizer, same as his other shots. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junie Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 I did end up going to bed early, but I slept very fitfully. First I was too cold, and then too hot, over and over again. And I had a raging headache (but those are fairly common for me, so I don't know if was vaccine related). I will say it was serendipity that this weekend was the time change and I got an extra hour of sleep. :) I'm still feeling pretty tired, but other than that I feel pretty good. I hope that I feel well tomorrow. I take dd11 for her first Pfizer and I have a feeling it's going to be a struggle. 😞 I'm tempted to play up how terrible I feel so that dh has to take her. But I love them both too much to do that to either of them. :) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corraleno Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 Pfizer is now applying for an EUA for boosters for everyone 18 and over, and it may go through since multiple members of the FDA and CDC advisory committees who originally voted against it have changed their minds, saying that recent data show it's safe and that it significantly reduces infections and severe illness. Data from Israel has shown that 3 doses were 93% more effective than 2 doses against hospitalization and 81% more effective against death. https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2021/11/08/pfizer-biontech-coronavirus-booster-authorization-18-and-older/ 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think making a blanket, age based policy will reduce a lot of confusion and the desire for people to make excuses (both to get the booster when they don’t yet qualify, and to get out it if they don’t want the booster but should get it). The “should” and “may” categories that exist right now are weird and not terribly useful, IMO. I hope this get passed soon. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loowit Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 Update on my booster (pfizer). I am a little over a week out and doing fine now. The injection site was red, hot, itchy, and swollen over my whole upper arm for almost a week. I think I just react that way to shots now though. My flu shot I got on Friday is doing the same thing. I also had fatigue lasted several days as did an on and off headache. But I am prone to headaches, so I am not sure it was a reaction to the shot. Overall, I think I had less downtime with the booster. I still have ringing in my ears, I think it is permanent now. It got really bad starting just after the injection, but is now back to tolerable. I keep telling myself that I would likely have gotten the same thing with covid. DD and DH got their boosters. DD had no reaction and DH was just a bit tired the next day for a few hours. Youngest will get his shot on Wednesday and he is really excited about it (not the shot itself, but the protection of getting a booster). Middle kid doesn't qualify, which he is actually happy about. He has spent months and several visits to specialists to prove to the military that he is fit for duty with no health problems. He will get his booster/vaccine when he goes to boot camp in a few months. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldberry Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 Got Moderna booster Friday. With my second shot I was pretty sick for a solid three days. Chills, aches. With the booster I was not feeling that great for the first Friday night and part of Saturday, mostly achey, no chills. Then all better! So about 24 hours. Even my arm was not as sore as it was with the second shot. Very relieved since I was at 10 months out. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wathe Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 I finally qualify: eligibility was expanded here to include healthcare and over 70's more than 6 months since second dose as of Saturday.
