Just wondering if you have had a bad reaction to the first jab, what were the symptoms and how long did they last, thanks and stay safe !

Well, yes, tiredness, but I put that down to the boredom of lockdown.... lol.... I have been tired for several weeks, I am sure it will pass once we can get out and about again.....

Had my Astra Zeneca yesterday and felt pretty rough for 24 hours.
Aching neck and underarms, tired and generally grouchy as well as slightly sore arm

Sinovac X 2 for both of us - no reactions really. But did put tiredness down to what we are doing in the garden, so maybe it was that! Only lasted three days anyway and in no way debilitating!

I had the Oxford Astra Zeneca vaccine 3 weeks ago. The day after my eyes wouldn't stop watering, had to take an antihistamine. I felt really cold and fluey, spent all day in bed, felt better on the Monday but still tired but back to normal by Tuesday. My daughter had her first vaccination last Thursday and felt ill for a couple of days. We both suffer from allergies so wonder if it was connected to that but have a friend who's a GP and she said it just shows your immune systems are working. Husband's had the Pzifer, both doses with no problems. Does seem the Oxford one gives the worst reactions

Had Astra Zeneca. Felt tired that evening but put it down to a day volunteering at the Exeter Mass Vaccination Centre. It was early to bed with very mild flu symptoms, as in felt a bit odd, cold and slightly shivery. Nothing major and was fine next morning.
The piece of paper given after the injection listed the possible side affects.

No reaction after first German jab, and just a little tiredness after second. Slept for couple hours in the afternoon and symptoms went.
