Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

48 hours in and I'm also feeling fine. I'll get a few things done off the list as my sport doesn't start again until next weekend so aiming to earn a gold pass giving me Friday to Sunday off. Talking about lists, one of my wife's favourite phrases is "there's so much to do, I can feel a good list coming on".

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Wait until SWMBO goes "meta list" - a list of lists...

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Is that the list of all lists that includes itself or the list of all lists that does not include itself? :D

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Ha !!

All you amateurs needing a list, I just get 'the look' and immediately know something somewhere needs doing . . . now

:D

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

the latter :)

the master index

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Give her a list, see how she likes it.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Are you married?????

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

No way am I going to give my wife a list, I bleed too easily!
Mind you I offer to assist my wife on any tasks that my wife needs to do.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Still awaiting my 2nd jab of AZ, just hoping the sting in the arm doesn't carry on to a 3rd day!

It was still a bit tender a week later if I brushed up against a doorway.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Getting my 2nd Pfizer jab on Tuesday. Got a phone call on Friday so it's just over 10 weeks since my first.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Had my first AZ jab on Thursday. So far the only symptom I have had is a slightly sore arm. Must say the centre I went to was very efficiently run and all of the staff were very friendly.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Had mine this morning. Expecting a text from Bill Gates to see whether the Chip is working imminently.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Takes at least 24hrs to configure the chip to your metabalism. You may have periods of sleep apnoea when the chip reboots your system to complete configuration.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Had mine a few weeks ago, not had any side effects at all, in fact everything . . . ZZzzrrrt . . is working really well . . ZZzzrrrt . . no problems at all *click*

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

You may also experience aching joints and headaches - nothing to be concerned about, that’s just the nanobots reconfiguring your ligaments/tendons/synapses in advance of the second jab, which will provide the upgrade to 5G connectivity, allowing MS to take control of, sorry, monitor your body... :D

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Well 48 hrs after having the AZ and I can report no adverse affects in any way whatsoever. Not even on the arm.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

2nd Pfizer vaccination yesterday morning. Arm very tender last night but paracetamol helped overnight and this morning it feels a lot more comfortable.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

1st AZ dose yesterday. Took a lot of water and 2 paracetamol as advised after vaccination and 2 before going to bed just in case (even though I felt fine).

Arm isn't sore but has a slight lingering feeling that someone might have punched it half an hour ago.

Woke up this morning feeling something comparable to a slight hangover - one of those you stayed in the pub for an extra one on a school night but nothing severe.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

I had the day after most of a red bottle of wine feeling,.
Mind you it could just be because I opted for red wine instead of paracetamol. ;)

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Why choose? :confused: :D

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Had my second jab on Saturday,my arm is still sore today plus I seem rather bone weary. Hopefully I'll be feeling better tomorrow.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Got given my 2nd jab last Wednesday by the renal unit. No symptoms or even a sore arm.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Had my second Saturday evening (Pfizer). As with the first, I have had no problems at all, not even an ache in the arm.

No idea if it's just plain luck, or the vaccine tiring itself out fighting to get through the alcohol & nicotine :D

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Had my second jab 3 weeks ago. It was from Moderna, not available in the UK. I felt a bit of fatigue and had a sore arm after the first one, no noticeable effects after the second. Received it because I'm over 65.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Moderna has been in use here for about 3 weeks now.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

I had my second Pfizer jab 5 weeks ago. Arm a tad sore after each but no other side effects. Did feel tired but that happens when I am stressed so can't attribute it to the vaccinations.

My Haematology Consultant arranged an antibody test last week as part of the research into compromised Immune systems.

Had a negative test prior to the vaccinations so will be interested to know the result of this latest test.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

My second AZ jab is due 7th June

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Is it possible to add it to the poll? Interested to see how many have got it. Astra Zeneca was the last one to be made available over here. They paused the Pfizer shot for a while after the blood clot issue, but it's available again now.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Good point ... I've added a few Moderna options. There doesn't seem much point in trying to separate out the oldest age groups at this point.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

The age split is a lot less relevant now (than when it was started).
At some point I'll consolidate some of the options into a smaller list.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Had my second dose of the AstraZeneca vaccine this morning, no problems so far, as with the 1st dose.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Just had my 2nd dose of AstraZeneca, hoping i don't feel like crap after 12hrs like with the first jab.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

My wife has likewise had her second jab of AZ yesterday, had problems with her arm being uncomfortable as she normally sleeps on her side.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Had my first shot about 3 weeks ago. AstraZenica. As I needed to go into Bromley, I was planning to make a bit of a shopping trip, and get a few things I needed after I had the vaccine. Oddly, didn't feel like that after, and actually felt a bit out of sorts for a couple of days.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Missus and I have just had our invites. In Scotland they just send you a date rather than asking you to phone for an appointment (or are there some English NHS regions doing it that way too?). So we will get done in a week or so.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

How does that work if you can't make the said date? In England they offer you a choice of locations, dates and times

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

The letter details date, time and location (which is a GP surgery, but not our own). It says if this is acceptable we don’t need to call ahead, just show up on time. It also strongly encourages us to take the appointment that has been made. It then does say we can change it if it’s not suitable. However, the strategy seems to be to try to engage more people by just telling them where and when to show up, without even the effort of making an appointment.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Both my invites came from a phone call from my local Doctors Surgery in England, i did actually book my 2nd jab online but cancelled it after they phoned me so i could go to the Vaccination Centre a few miles away.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Both our invites came from text messages sent to us from our local medical health group.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

In Wales we get a time, date and location by letter.

Mine are at the GP surgery, but the missus and twins were at a leisure centre an easy drive away.

But the centre is now Pfizer-only, so the missus was invited for 9am on the other side of the city. That would mean driving in rush hour traffic right through the logjams in the centre. So I spent 5 hours trying to get them to answer the phone so that it could be changed to mid-afternoon.

5 HOURS!!!! :mad:

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Our surgery has dire hold music that makes any sane person want to go on a gun rampage.:D

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

The hotline just says, after a long preamble in English and Welsh, "No-one is able to take your call" then cuts you off.

When you finally get into the top 20 of the queue you get "You are number 20 in the queue" *music* "You are number 20 in the queue" *music* You are number 19 in the queue" *music*...... :(

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

So you can't book online? :shocked: Good old devolution.

That said, Wales is 10% ahead of the other nations for first doses, so they must be doing something right.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Population numbers are probably why.


England 56,000,000
Scotland 5,500,000
Wales 3,150,000
Northern Ireland 1,890,000

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

It seems to vary by region I think, I'm in England too.

For both jabs I got a text message with a website link to book it.
No choice of location, but just a couple of dates to choose from & then some times to pick.
Same for my wife, and we are at different GP surgeries.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

2nd pfizer done

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Still none the wiser as to how I'll find out about my 2nd jab.

Had my first in March whilst I was living in Cardiff. I've since moved and am now in a different health borough. The place I went to originally won't change my address as technically I'll no longer be under their 'jurisdiction'.

I rang the Welsh NHS helpline number about jabs who told me to ring back at the start of May and they'll be able to tell me over the phone when my date is.

I rang them, quite unexpectedly nobody knew anything about anything and told me to ring 2 weeks later - today.

This morning I get told it's "likely to be" the 30th May but to ring a week before just to be sure. As they "might" be able to tell me then. So not exactly "sure" then.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Can't you book it online?

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Got my 2nd Pfizer jab today. :)

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

still not heard about my second dose. Think ive been forgotten about lol.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

My son who is 33 gets his first jab this afternoon.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

And now my daughter 38 has an appointment also.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

My daughter (33) and son-in-law (34) are getting their first Pfizer jab on Saturday and Wednesday, respectively.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

l just had my Oxford AstraZeneca 2nd jab this morning.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Hope you don't feel rough, I think I had 4 days of lower back pain unless that was caused by sitting on the sofa for 3 days after working for nearly 3 weeks solid.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Been cancelled, due to refrigerator failure (Pfizer jab).

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

l am okay thus so far as the nurse did state that the side effects from the second jab on patient feedback were far less then the side effects that patients experienced from their first jabs.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Glad to hear it Den. My heart rate went down to 48 after the first AZN jab. As a shareholder I should have been treated better!

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Missus and I just got Astra'd. My arm feels like it’s been punched; she’s absolutely fine. Fun fun fun in the sun sun sun. :D

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

You wait till this evening.... Have some paracetamol handy ;)

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Had mine the other day, felt awful for two days

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

I had lower back pain for 3 days after my second jab I think I also had it after the first.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Pregnant?

That's a hell of a jab :D

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Second Astrazenica today, at the new optimum of 7.5 weeks too. :D

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Got my second this coming Saturday, just over 9 weeks after the first.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Will let you know how I feel tomorrow!

First went fine, "slight hangover" was how I'd describe waking up the next day but that was it.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Mrs G felt pretty rough after both AZ jabs. I felt under the weather after first AZ jab. Booked my second for 16:50 so I know I will still feel fine when we go to sister-in-law's for a takeaway curry the same evening - not quite ready not go to restaurants yet.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Woke up a bit lethargic, extra couple of hours in bed. Feel fine.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

I had no reaction to my second jab at all (and only a bit of a sore arm after the first one).

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

My second should have been at the GP surgery today, but has been postponed a week due to "supply problems".

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

The supply is all in Bolton and the surrounding area ...

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

I realise that you are not concerned about the lack of any real reactions but in case anyone is worried by the minimum lack of reaction to their vaccinations I thought my experience could put their minds at rest. I was the same as you after my first Pfizer vaccination and I was worried that there had been no evidence of any real response by my immune system.

As my Consultant is part of an ongoing research project into my Immune System condition my antibody status is being checked every 4 weeks and there has been a positive result with increasing levels from my first test just 2 weeks after my fist jab in January and more so after my second jab in March.

My last couple of tests over the last 5 weeks now indicate that my levels seems to have started to stabilise and I will be interested to see what future tests show.

For anyone who has has had at least the first AZ vaccination here's a link to an antibody study( published 13/5/2021) that seems to be very encouraging.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

:D :D

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Had call from GP and booked 2nd AZ dose next week.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Just had my second jab. Only side effect a craving for a single malt. Craving satiated.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

:D

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

I can attest to the efficacy of a generous measure of Tamnavulin :D

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

That makes me feel better Chris even though I only had a Glenmorangie available.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

World-first COVID-19 vaccine booster study launches in UK

Details of how to apply are included in the link.

Im so sorry everyone..... I hope ya'll feel better now :)

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Just had the 2nd jab.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

" days since my second jab and only side effect is tenderness around the injection site.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Second dose of Vaxzevria (does anyone actually call it that?) yesterday. Headache for two hours afterwards, but fine now. Much better than the week-long headache on dose #1.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Ditto, no reaction to the second dose, unlike the first.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Just had the 2nd jab, Astra

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Second AZ jab, see how I feel in the morning.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

35 minutes to get to the vaccination centre across the city. 11 minutes for the missus to get her second jab. 30 minutes to get back home.

Her first jab was in a sports centre 5 minutes away via dual carriageway.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Home to vaccine centre to home took 15 minutes yesterday. Had a bit of a headache most of today but feel fine now.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Just had the second AZ jab a couple of hours ago. No ill effects so far.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Just had the second AZ jab about 2 hours back. Nothing to report so far.


(Please take you vaccination card with you it helps a great deal and was commented today that not many people do.)

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

I would have done if they'd given me one first time round. Though I'm not sure taking one would have made much difference. They already knew what jab I'd had and when.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

But now I have a card with details of both jabs including batch numbers that I can use to show status if needed. (No mobile)

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

No side effects from yesterdays second jab but seeing as the first time round there weren't I thought that would be the case.

I too have the little card with both jab details on it. Whilst I do have a mobile it doesn't support external apps, only the built in ones.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

If you don't have a smart phone or can't access the mobile app you can get a paper copy of your vaccine status or download a pdf copy from here.

IMHO The problem of trying to use the card filled in on the day of your vaccinations is that it could be used by anyone as you would have difficulty proving it was actually yours.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

I walked to the GP surgery for mine. There and back in 20 minutes.

No effects as yet, but I didn't react to the first one either.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Had my 2nd AV jab this afternoon. Just hoping I don’t get the aches/chills like the first one and I can get to the gym in the morning.

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

So 24 hours after my 2nd jab and no side effects other than my shoulder feels bruised (to be expected) and probably won't be helped by me going back to the gym tomorrow but that's my own problem.

Hope this is of some help to anyone worried about the AZ side effects....

Im glad your doing ok Russ :)

Thanx 4 letting us know!!

Re: Cable Forum Vaccinations
 

Got my first booked in for next week.
