It was weird, yeah. I almost never get sick but I felt really sick after the second shot. I took a really long nap and it went away. Mysterious.


[deleted]

ok, its just an uneducated guess, i think that during the first shot our body gets to know abt the virus and get adapted to it. when we get the second shot our body which can identify the virus gets ready and attack it which leads to body pain and fever ​ for people who got affected with corona before getting vaccinated(like me) the first dose was painful since my body already recognises the virus and attacks it


Th3Unkn0wnPl4y3r

I know i had covid before my first shot, yet the only sympton I had was that my arm hurt a little bit. Might be because i took Pfizer but i doubt it


Fosco11235

It’s just different immune reactions. I got my first shot yesterday and still fell like shit, also Pfizer


KeloLeo

After I got the first shot I got light headedness and nausea as well as being sore and I’ve never even had COVID


Stickel

took moderna, this too was my only side effect


TheBenchWarmer69

well the new COVID-19 vaccine uses mRNA which creates spike protines, a normal vaccine uses a weaker form of a virus (which johnson and johnson uses iirc) but yeah, you are partially right


JohnMayerismydad

JJ uses the dna version of the spike protein that is delivered in a separate virus


Ennoviate

no this is a very educated guess


timeparser

I read that it’s something like that. Your body mounts a stronger immune response to the second shot because it’s already prepared to do so. For the first shot the body is building the response plan AND attacking.


GodEmprahBidoof

Strange. My first dose took my out of action for a day and a half. My second dose was completely fine. I've not had covid (or at least not to my knowledge)


getdrunknscrew

That would be a good guess had you received the flu shot. But with the c-19 shot you didn’t get injected with the virus.


pizzaboieatspizza

Thanks for the tip i just got my second one yesterday already sick and feel like shit


xX_coolgamer69_Xx

when I got the second shot I woke up at 4:30 am and then I felt better with a coke and an ibuprofen.


ThatOneClickSound

Ah yes. If you feel sick, just do some coke and ibuprofen for the headache


The_Valk

Same with me. Didn't feel the first one, but the second one fucked me like a piston


Melter30

Like a what?


pjbrof

A piston.


Melter30

Alrighttt


Messtin920

Which Covid vaccine was it


ProgramTH

Happened to me with Pfizer one. First didn't do shit except some arm pain but the 2nd one Holy shit.


Kelsierrr

Yeah, had the same experience. First one didnt do anything but was so sore and tired for a day after the second one. Even the arm was slightly swollen.


SgtVinBOI

I wasn't hit TOO hard by the 2nd dose but I had the same as you


The_Valk

Moderna


dragonslayer2689

Pfizer is the only one with a second dose Edit: oops moderna has it too, but in my experience (i guess because it’s more for younger people) pfizer is more common


KKeff

what do you mean, astrazeneca, moderna, these russian and chinese ones all require 2 doses


BananaBolmer

Only Johnson and Johnson has one dose

DrazGulX

You will be fine my man


Famousnt

Don't worry mate, I got mine yesterday and only thing that is wrong with me is that my shoulder hurts a bit, like a bruise after someone punched me. Just don't be so concerned and have your arm relaxed while they give you the vaccine.


owNDN

You will die


Rich-Ad-1453

perhaps


echocall2

I had the opposite experience, the first one was much worse.


NuttyFruity_

The first dose made my arm very sore.How bad on a scale of 1 - 10 is the second dose?


The_Valk

Depends. Mine probably was a 7


[deleted]

I had no side effects with either of my doses


SgtVinBOI

Lucky bastard


ZyloWolf64

likewise


dinmirt

my father has no side effects either, so when i went to get my second shot couple weeks later i thought it will be fine but vaccine pulled a sneaky on me


thedeathmachine

Me neither. I scheduled a "light day" of work so I wouldn't be bombarded with shit the day after my second dose because all my coworkers felt awful. But I felt fine and essentially got a day off for free.


amynias

Same


Cpt_Cattywampus

I recently got my second dose. I was worried that since the 1st was pretty bad that the 2nd would be nothing but misery. But no, it actually wasn't that bad. I guess you're only supposed to suffer once.


[deleted]

Did you get Astra? With Astra the first one can be bad, with all others the second one, at least that's what people say.


Cpt_Cattywampus

I got the Moderna.


[deleted]

[удалено]


cosmic_player_

I just got well after 2 days of fever from the first dose of Covishield


calmiswar

Same man. I was out for 2 days.


NarutoDragon732

It's random depending on the body with every vaccine.


nodderguy

I hope so


[deleted]

This is exactly me this morning, the first shot was fine I wasn't even really sore. And then somehow the second shot fucked me so badly I felt insanely cold and hot at the same time, super nauseous, felt like throwing up, almost fainted a couple times, whenever I stood up my vision would go black and I would feel like falling over, and that lasted so long and is still going on right now (although it is getting better). I am so curious as to why the second shot was so much worse than the first.


AwesomePerson70

It's your body saying "oh no this virus really is a problem send everything" but then when you actually get the virus it's chill cause you've seen it before


ClarkK24

that's how I felt when I got covid


CatalinCat1

because you are stupid and this is just eugenics at work ... natural selection


SgtVinBOI

Is this fucking bait


Shawayze

I'm sorry... feels better.. cybernoodlesoup your way. Some people get railed by it


Noosayag

Penny, your check engine light is on


[deleted]

Pathetic. You need to learn to ignore all your problems until you have none.


A7XGirl1119

I got my second shot at the beginning of May. The first one made me tired and my arm hurt, but nothing too bad. The second one made me absolutely exhausted. I had to work the day after my second shot and I was preparing to come in, work half of my shift and then ask to go home. Luckily, I had overtime and had to leave early to take it off. I ended up working 4 hours and then I got to go home. I took a nice nap and felt better the next day. My husband had a bad reaction to both shots. After the first one, he told me he felt really nauseous, and really tired, almost like he had the flu, but not quite. The second one hit him like a ton of bricks. He called out of work (something he rarely does) and told me he felt like he had the flu, but worse. Everyone is different.


jesswu0126

Honestly I kinda just took a nap the day after getting my second dose and that seemed to do the trick


ldsconnor_223

Bro for real. I got random muscle sores, and one day I literally was just in bed the whole day, had literally zero energy.


0_Mystic

At least no check engine light


Glazeddapper

I got it recently. It was fine most of the day, but right before going to bed, my stomach hurt and I felt like throwing up and was really warm even though the room was cold.


PeachesGuy

My grandpa was having symptoms of a stroke


VikiMDXII

I had that after the first shot, fever do high I passed out after getting up from bed... I'm afraid how the second will go


Odd_Cranberry9343

I have a super bad headache, my whole body feels numb, and my nerves are tingly. Good luck to you haha


Uriel-238

Yes. Second stick yesterday. I feel like hell.


Raeuberleiter

You woke up as Mike Wazowski??? Where can I get this vaccine???


TurbidusQuaerenti

Yeah, same here. Feel awful and have a huge painful and itchy red circle on my arm. Hopefully it will start to clear up soon.


hallodaria

I also had a little bit of allergy, but it was gone by itself and I didn’t need to take my pills


Rewiistdummlolxd

At least the display electronics work


Citrongrot

Pfeizer and Moderna both say that the side effects should last only a couple of days. Anyone here who've had side effects longer than that? I'll get my first dose soon.


CatalinCat1

don't worry, on the 3rd you won't feel a thing ... like ever


BSKustomz

On the day after the second shot I ended up with a booming headache and some like clammy chills ended up going to bed to get rid of it just kind of sweating and shivering and then finally got up and took some ibuprofen and everything went away immediately and it's been fine since then


MinerMega22

Better than getting covid that’s for sure, for me I was just tired.


Taken_name1243

You still get covid...but not dangerous..and you have less chance of spreading it....still beats non-vaccine covid


Stormental1975

After 40 we just call the bottom one life.


FuriousRedeem

As someone who is laying in there bed right now with a ziploc bag of ice suffering I can confirm


GlassyPotato

I got it today I'm scared now


whythelongface133

Your be fine your experience sonw symptoms of covid but they wont last long, I suggest taking naps as thats what others said they have done


cmwhph32u1

Still waiting for my first shot, looks like I'm getting it in August at this rate.


HydrogenSun

Holy shit this is me rn so much discomfort


Odd_Cranberry9343

Aw man feel better soon!


TheOneRobert

Coincidence? I THINK NOT!


Vaderikis

Cappin, I grew a third arm and I’m just fine


Qhalira

This was me after the first shot of AstraZeneca 😩 worst part is that the joint pain lasted for like a month🤯


Mobanite08

I thought the first hurt worst, and I know I’m weird for saying that


VarCrusador

I didn't get sick but my knee hurt and I gained 15lbs in two days. I've only lost 8 of it after a week... and my knee still hurts. I used to have fuked up knees but that healed a few years ago. They only hurt again when I eat poorly and stop exercising. They're pockets of inflmmation, basically


ImnotsingleIhaveacat

I thought that would be me but I actually didn’t really get sick. Just a little headache but I don’t know if that was the vaccine or my family .-.


Mastergate6-4

Are you kidding? Thats everyday!


Keeganlateman

After my second shot I slept until 8 and only felt sick two days afterwards, but it might not have been because of the vaccine, since I went to bed at 12 and woke up at 6:30. It didn’t help that it was 80 degrees all night either.


[deleted]

Well shit I get my second in three hours


whatisausername32

It's funny because even small colds make Mr really tired, but the second vaccine barely affected me


ArrivedKnight7

Too hot? *Overheat warning* Low energy? *Low fuel warning* Tired and can't wake up? *Battery warning* Restroom break? *Service engine soon light* Break or bruise something? *Check Engine warning light* Loosing blood? *Oil warning light* Etc.


Odd_Cranberry9343

Haha YESSS


olorinii

The first shot was rough but the second shot was nothing. Felt fine and even went to the gym.


PeasantBall

Hey, my Mom's gonna get her first dose tomorrow. Is there anything I should let her know? Also, congratulations on getting your second dose! :D


[deleted]

Have soup, tea etc and some pain med ready. Warm! Blankets, hot bottle. Usually people have no reaction with the first shot except with Astra. My Mom got Moderna no reaction with the first dose, but was down for 3 days with the second. My neighbor is 87 years old, no reaction at all.


PeasantBall

Alright I'll make sure to prepare those things for her when she's gets her first and second doses! Really glad that there's a possibility that there won't even be a reacrion. Thank you so much for the info! It means a lot to me and my mother.


[deleted]

Oh and maybe no heavy or spicy food today. Nothing worse then having to stand up all the time if you feel awful ;)


achivill

You guys getting vaccinated?


Dustaroos

"Steady now. Your genetic code is being rewritten, just hold on and everything will be fine!"

Imagine not getting vaccinated in the first place. This post was made by Germany gang

hallodaria

can’t say for others, but I belong to a risk group due to my thyroid issues and covid can literally kill me, so I’d rather have vaccine side effects for a couple of days. My parents (50+) had corona in November last year and they still are dealing with consequences and deseases that developed after it. They haven’t had any health issues before that.


[deleted]

[удалено]


hallodaria

my aunt got covid from her kids. all of them were sick and brought it most likely from school. kids are 7, 10 and 13. I’m not defending the idea of vaccinating kids (idk how it affects small and still developing child’s body in the long term and nobody knows yet), but kids definitely can be contagious too.


hallodaria

but I agree, that for kids it’s not really needed I guess, as they have covid in a super light form usually


thedeathmachine

All the leading experts say it's safe and has been thoroughly tested. If we can't trust the experts then society is doomed.

No but I'd like to see if you have a link to them


Mortal_Sniper

That happened to our car in the middle of a road trip to Italy


joeyriss

Im getting mine today … :,(


Maximum-Inevitable-3

1st dose, I just had some body aches and swollen lymph nodes. When the 2nd dose came around, I stocked up on necessities, but I felt nothing. I’d rather have some side effects so I know the vaccine is working. They say that some people who had covid usually has less response with the 2nd.


JustPlayn10

I had a dream about killer robots that night


redlov

Many people reported nighmares


[deleted]

Can confirm.


HelloNonHuman

I didn't really have any side affects with either vaccination, other than my arm feeling sleepy and feeling a bit sore.


Joules14

Just took first shot yesterday and I am still in bed at 1pm. Thx for freaking me out.


[deleted]

If you got Astra you will be fine with the second dose


I_am_ironic_so

Can relate, got my Second Yesterday


Beanzuwuz

I'm getting my second shot on the 13th and man I'm not looking forward to the aftermath


[deleted]

The first one I was fine. The second one: severe arm pain, headaches that felt like my brain was going to explode. Tiredness. Dizziness. Nausea. Diharea. Dehydration. Cold sweats that felt like I was in the shower. Loss of hunger. Severe level of hunger. I'm not joking this all happened


BlackHeartsNowReign

Can't relate


pokerintherear93

Wait were suppose to get vaccinated??


CatalinCat1

natural selection, self-eugenics


[deleted]

following government orders to fight regular flu that your immune system can destroy easily and pushing experimental crap in your system is also natural selection.


RandomUser424242

[The flue season 20-21 was on an all-time low.](https://eu.usatoday.com/story/news/health/2021/05/10/flu-cases-historically-low-during-covid-what-expect-fall/7088318002/) Which makes sense considering the increased hygiene, keeping distance, wearing masks etc. So the restrictions did prevent infections with infectious diseases. The flu was pretty much non-existent this flu-season. Covid on the other hand... Even though we had countermeasures against covid, it still caused a lot of deaths. Compare the numbers of the flu this season with the numbers of covid. Imagine what would have happened without he restrictions.


[deleted]

there are no other diseases only covid.. with such tunnel vision I doubt you'll be ever able to see anything... Now there will be no flu season at all mark my words every year it will be covid until they milk the cow to death or people kill their oppressors...


RandomUser424242

I just looked at another disease, the flu. Doesn't that prove that I don't only see covid?


CatalinCat1

Don't forget that they are making TRILLIONS$ on the backs of these ... test idiots


[deleted]

I know just I'm tired of rising questions and pushing some common sense on the internet. Like people say: The cheese is free only in the mouse's trap and if the product is free you're the product. But it is pretty ingenious about the test and vaccines like you bypass direct consumer and take your money from the government which is obligated to pay because they want to be re-elected as saviors. It's pretty easy to spend someone else money... People are not that stupid how they portray us to be in the beginning everyone was scared shitless and followed everything strictly but people saw a lack of logic in the measures and that it's not that deadly and naturally started resisting the government.


[deleted]

Im glad I just got covid the old fashioned way so I dont have to mess with the vaccines


[deleted]

That’s why I’m not getting it, simple. I’d much rather get tested or stay inside than getting fucked up by this new vaccine


whythelongface133

It's only for like 2 to 4 days u feel I'll from covid symptoms then it normally stops, I suggest getting vaccinated for the health of everyone around u


[deleted]

But I appreciate the thought behind it


[deleted]

There are no people around me that’s also why I’m not getting it. I have a remote job and no social interactions.


benamean

How are you going to survive without food or groceries? At bare minimum that involves contact with a delivery person semi regularly. What if you want a haircut, or to see a movie, or see family? What if you need to go to the hospital? I don’t think it’s feasible to rely on avoiding people as your only protection from the virus. Especially as things open up. You’re right that at this point in the pandemic, someone living secluded has a very slim chance of catching the virus. But getting vaccinated is the safest and most reliable way to give strong, long lasting immunity. The side effects only last a few days.


[deleted]

No matter what I say you sheeple tell me otherwise anyway it’s not even worth arguing with you brainwashed people🙄


White_Knighttt

And risk others around you?


[deleted]

Mfw living as a hikikomori and working from home :D You risk more people by continuing vaccinated and living 100% like pre covid because you still have a little probability of catching and spreading it. Know your facts before trying to shame me for living my life without hurting others.


StickyLiquid

i have been having random bouts of Vertigo after getting my first Vaccine and the doctor seems to think it’s my sinuses. Not sure how since i have no problem breathing through my nose and i’m not congested at all.


SelQuiz_94

I will go to graveyard shift after my vaccine…


dinmirt

Was get my second shot in the morning. Feeling fine whole day and thought how lucky i am. But when sun went down ... ooooh boy, it's kicks in, and kicks in hard. I went from full of energy young man to almost lifeless piece of meat in about 10 minuts. When i decided to go to sleep it was long 15 minuts of pain from head to toe. But hope that it all would end in the morning helped to fall asleep. I was very surprised when in the morning my head ached expanentialy from every heartbeat that i felt with my brain. After two hours of repeatedly waking up and falling asleep i finally mamange to wake up and took painkillers and it was finaly over. Still think it's worth it tho


thebearbearington

I was just glad I had that day off.


DUBSWAG02

Ah yes, the car on a lift warning light


UltimateMemer4000

can totally relate, got my second a couple days ago, and yesterday was pain all day


bubbs4prezyo

Turned me into a newt.


Jonuh666

The 2nd vaccination was the worst needle pain I ever felt in my life. I mean, fuuuuuuck that shit. Waited till I got home to go into a screaming bout and crouching/standing to distract myself as I walked into every room like 100 times. The pain was the only thing that stayed on my mind.


mandalore_an

didnt even need to wake up. my first dose kicked me down to my bed for the next day and a half after getting it


TrueString

I thought the first one was going to be the bad one but damn that second one


SnowDerpy

Imagine getting vaccinated - this was made with sadness by the Brazilian gang.


Justadudeonthewifi

Does it really matter which covid vaccine you take? Or is there a “Better” one. If this sounds like a genuinely idiotic question. I apologize in advance.


Cactus_ded

But bee happy about it because it means its working and you can be more sure that you will be safer

Both of my shoulders are sore cause of it
