I took the J&J vaccine on Tuesday. Yesterday, I woke up with a chill and a slight headache. The headache grew worse as the day progressed, then went away with some Excedrine Tension Headache relief. After that, I experienced some fatigue, went to sleep at 9 something PM, woke up at 7 AM feeling great. Yeah, I did oversleep a little, but if that is the worst the vaccine does to me, I'm all for it.

It was recommended that I take the vaccine by my doctor due to the fact that I am still experiencing symptoms from having an actual COVID-19 infection back in November 2020. At this point, I'm willing to try anything to not suffer from random headaches, breathing issues, nausea, and fatigue. I also had an issue with my body regulating its own temperature where it would be in the 97 degree range. That usually coincided with the fatigue.

I got my first Moderna last Friday. I'm not sure I had any side effects, possibly a little fatigue and/or sore back, but both could be from working out a lot. Hopefully I'll be as lucky with the second dose.

It's been just the opposite from all those I've spoke to. The second has been worse if you've had it and it doesn't seem to matter which you get ie. Moderna or Pfizer.

If I going to be forced to take a shot, I'll get the J&J since it's using the old means of making a vaccine.

not anymore you won’t. They’re scrapping it and Astra Zeneca it appears. They want you to get that nice juicy mrna one.

Sounds like the side effects from the shot are about the same for most people as the effects from catching covid would be for most people— Headache, fatigue. Even nothing at all.....

Gee. What a miracle.

And the same remedies that work against the covid also work against the vaccine.

I have had one friend get the vaccine and not get any side effects from it. Unusual.

Slic.

I work from home and we "distance" from others naturally anyway.

My work usually requires me to travel and that time is coming back, I believe this year. I'm guessing I'll have to get vaccinated whether I want to or not.

Got first dose in January and second mid February. No pip, no side effects, antibodies are high, got myself tested. In November-December I had Covid as well with no symptoms. So it seems it does not affect me much...

Got my second Pfizer shot a few weeks ago. No pip or sides with either. My wife had flu symptoms for a couple of days after her second.

On all the talk here about vaccine safety, etc. here's Tucker Carlson with the stats. You won't see this on youtube.

Here's a link to his government source if anyone wants to check his work. I'm too lazy.

2nd moderna two days ago. Some PIP. Not bad. Woke up at midnight that night with crazy tinnitus, headache, and loads of energy. Didnt sleep til 5am. Little dizzy next day til noon. Totally normal after.

Sure hope that vampire Fauci (whose research created this virus) doesnt get a dime from my shot.

2nd Pfizer yesterday. Woke up with a headache (nothing excedrine couldn’t kill) but have been physically exhausted all day.
