Have you had your booster jab (jag) ?

[Boudicca]

On other news my friend went for a walk in booster this morning, no queue and in and out with military precision.

This may have something to do with the fact that the army had been called in and were doing the injections.

 

[sojourner]

Had mine (Moderna) this morning. Quite a queue but everyone very cheerful and efficient.

Everyone I know who's had Moderna has felt pretty shite with it the next day or two so I'm fully prepped to be wiped out if necessary.

I was fine weepiper Felt the start of a headache, took paracetamol. Little nauseous but fine otherwise.

Nicked this off the Beeb's daily report

had mine this afternoon.

got moderna after AZ ones the first time round.

no ill effects so far.

all less crowded than I expected - they either weren't doing or had stopped doing 'walk in' by the time I was there.

Arm hurts like billy-o but otherwise ok so far.

Arm hurts like billy-o but otherwise ok so far.

I wonder if my vast bulk helps ... that said, though not even really uncomfortable I can still sometimes feel the injection site 4 weeks on when I lie on it....

Got the Moderna one this morning (Astras initially back in April) , its now called spike me , or something ???? . no pain , but now feeling a bit zonked out , early night tonight , methinks , just happy to get it done .

It's probably going to be an annual event , maybe they could combine it with the flu jab ....

Nearly 2 weeks on from mine and I can still feel it. Was itching quite bad at site but calmed down now.

Yep, arm bit sore now. Glad I went to the gym yesterday, not my usual saturday.

The staff and volunteers were very good at the drop in I went to BTW. Props to them.

Moderna seems to also be called Spikevax

Spikevax (previously COVID-19 Vaccine Moderna) | European Medicines Agency

www.ema.europa.eu

I was a bit - the card I got says Moderna, but the leaflet I got (which I didn't look at until I got home) says Spikevax

Moderna yesterday after 2x Pfizer this summer. 275k done at the vaccination centre since May.

No side effects. Main issue was convincing them my heavy sweating wasn’t because I was ill, but because of medication plus wearing a mask.

 

[Buddy Bradley]

Vote changed, got Pfizer this morning. We were the first ones there, but it was so quiet we decided to get breakfast at Greggs; by the time we got back there was a queue.

Was booked in for 23rd at a medical centre several miles away. Phone call this morning from my docs (three minutes away on foot), walk in boosters today, was there, boosted and back in 30 mins. Pfizer. Least painful jab so far, hardly felt it, and I have no tolerance to any pain lol

 

[onenameshelley]

I had mine yesterday, and its hit me like a truck, every bone in my body hurts, splitting headache and shivers. Ffs. I dont even know what i got either, I was I was in and out so fast and I forgot to ask.

 

[magneze]

Did you get a card? It's normally on there..

Nope I got absolutely nothing, no leaflet or anything. If I didn't feel like death warmed up I would assume it was water

Hope it passes quickly. The NHS app will tell you what you got - might take a week to show though (mine did).

 

[Storm Fox]

I had Pfizer yesterday, arm hurts a lot today and feel washed-out if I move.

I had pfizer booster yesterday morning at my health centre that has started doing jabs. Very quick. Had to wait 15 mins sat in the car afterwards. Seems like my previous appt for the 30th at the big local vaccine centre has been automatically cancelled too.

Sore arm the past day, bit painful last night to sleep on but not as bad as the first time. Felt quite good mostly although a bit weird and quite tired yesterday evening so I conked out for a few hours. Still managed to sleep well though.

 

[Elpenor]

No side effects bar a slightly sore arm. I thought my arm was really bad and then remembered it was the arm I’d slept on, not the arm I’d had the jab in

 

[moochedit]

Yep just moved mine from 5th jan to 23rd dec.

Just been to a walk in center and got my booster done today and cancelled the other one.

No side effects yet but only been an hour or so.

What am i on now? 8g? 9g?

 

[Puddy_Tat]

feel kinda crap today, aches and pains all round and sore head. not noticeably got a fever.

trying to decide whether to go back to bed (and whether this might be an excuse to take an unplanned day off work tomorrow)

Just had Pfizer booster in the basement of Lancaster town hall. The medic told me to wait 15 mins before cycling home but it was cold, so I didn't.

 

[UnderOpenSky]

Had mine yesterday. Feel a bit rough today, but sadly that's the hangover, we stopped to get them on the way out for the evening. Arm's a tiny bit sore, but my partner says hers really hurts.

 

[Storm Fox]

Feeling quite achy now, going for a lie-down.

Again we're booster buddies!

 

[bimble]

had a pfizer today. No sticker.

 

[ginger_syn]

Had mine on wednesday, moderna, tastes nicer than az , sore arm still and a bit of a headache but no tiredness.

 

[onenameshelley]

It was moderna apparently. 15 hours sleep, I still ache but feeling like I am on the other side of it.
