I had my first Pfizer on Saturday. My arm began to be sore a few hours after the injection.It was no more sore than any other injection I have had in my arm. I kept moving my arm, hoping that it would limber up the injection site. That did the trick, and by Sunday afternoon, my arm was no longer sore.

Got my second dose of Moderna 2 days ago. The day after was pretty awful with a fever that wouldn't break even with Tylenol, but I'm feeling much better today. Well worth it in the end!

I went out for lunch in a small town in Oklahoma on the 2-week anniversary of my second shot. Literally no one was wearing a mask. It was business as per usual. It was strange after a year of all this, but at what point to those of us who have acted responsibly, and been vaccinated go back to business as usual?

It's all about risk management/risk acceptance, right? We each have a different risk tolerance and will go back to "normal" when we feel the risk is low enough for us to be comfortable. I'm not willing to risk GIVING this thing to someone who might be fragile, so I'll keep masking up for a while.

As a note, I got my J&J last Thursday. Felt a little drained through about Sunday, but I've had similar reactions to the Flu vaccine.

Note, I'm in the county just north of DC, we are still on strong requirements for masks. They are just *now* allowing Churches to have 100 member meetings.

I've had both of my Pfizer shots. I got nauseous about 2 hours after I got my first dose. Was nauseous the rest of the day. I got the 2nd dose two weeks later and was absolutely fine.

Had my 2nd dose of Moderna last Friday (4/16). I had the same upper arm soreness as I did with the first dose, plus I woke up at around 3:30 am (12 hours after my shot) because my feet felt like they were on fire, and couldn’t get comfortable enough to get back to sleep for a few hours. (Of course, my cat poking my feet every time I moved them didn’t help!) That was it for side effects. I’m halfway to having it fully kicked in!

On Etsy, a company is selling shirts with “Pfizer Alumni”, “Moderna Alumni” and “Johnson & Johnson Alumni”, like it’s a University or Greek alum shirt. NYT did a story about it.

Got my second shot on Friday. I woke up on Saturday with my arm hurting like hell and a mild headache, then at 3 I was out like a light for 3 hours. Otherwise not bad.

I had my second Pfizer shot on Saturday morning. Had a sore arm for two days. I kept waiting for other side effects, but nothing happened.

I got the Pfizer vaccine as well. I kept waiting for the side effects, but I didn't realize I was experiencing them until about 2 days after the 2nd shot. I had pain in my knees and wrists. At first, I just thought I slept on them funny. But when I had a swollen lymph node in my underarm, it clicked that what I was feeling were side effects.

Anyone else had the J&J vaccine? What were your side effects? Do the effects take longer to appear?

My 31 yo son received J&J. He got sick about 6 hours after the shot, had to leave work, and slept most of the time. Symptoms lasted just under 24 hours.
