Hi all!

Thank you for all of your amazing responses as per usual.

So I had my jab today at 12 midday today. Felt fine until around 6 ish to now and I've been having very mild chest tightness, bouts of nausea and sharp dull pains in chest. Also, extremely hungry, like there's a

Feeling slightly shorter of breath than usual and fast heart rate , but really hoping it passes,  I am feeling very anxious but really trying not to think about it when lying in bed at night especially. It's so hard to when it's quiet and dark and your partner's out for the count (he had his too btw, with only s sore arm so far).

So now just hoping my symptoms lessen now that I'm past the 12hr mark :/

Well done loonerider
Hope your symptoms have eased, most report a achey arm for a few days. I felt tired for about a week.
They are doing a Stella job at the GP where I work, vaccination clinics everyday this week, some until 10pm, giving out coffee and mince pies, giving up their time to help. Very proud of them x

Hope you're feeling better this morning Loonarider and your side effects have settlled. These things always feel ten times worse in the middle of the night and the anxiety makes it worse too. 

[Wrensong]

Well done loonarider.  Hope you managed to sleep after posting & that any lingering side effects will be very mild.  for bravery.

Dierdre, how are you?

Glad your got your booster loonarider,  I have just had the most horrendous night with palpitations, so am now thinking of heart problems again due to pfizer.  I've taken my betablocker this morning but my heart is still racing and I feel so agitated.  It feels like I'm having a constant panic attack.  Really dry mouth and fuzzy headed too.  Don't think I could take a fourth booster which is what they are doing now in Israel. Might be my gastric issues as Gaviscon Advance seemed to settle it down in the middle of the night.  Who knows.  Hope you get through this ok.

holidaylover - it's anxiety.  I have most of the symptoms you describe other than the palpitations.  ..... and breath!  Sing!  Out loud, singing regulates the breathing better than anything.  Anxiety is encouraged by shallow breathing.

How is everyone this morning?

Weirdly I have felt very hungry since having Pfizer vaccine on Monday. No side effects but feel really hungry and empty 🤷🏻‍♀️

Body mayB fighting in the form of using up energy that isn't being replaced?  I hate that feeling!  I have dried fruits/nuts, bananas, slow release foods for those days.

The Link won't copy so I can't paste

CLKD, Nobody needs to hear me sing!!!!  But I know what you mean about the breathing.  I was pacing round the bedroom in the middle of the night as I couldn't cope with my really fast heartbeat pumping so hard.  Utter panic which just made it worse.  Think I was hyperventilating.  I've been prescribed 1.25mg of bisoprolol (betablocker) a day, and didn't know if I should take another one through the night.  I'm exhausted this morning.  Off for a sing song!

[CLKD]

It's about controlling the breathing, not easy when one is in panic mode.  Been there etc. 

"I Love to Go a-Wandering, Along a Mountain Track : ..... 

Or the yodelling song from "the Sound of Music" .......... now I've given myself an ear worm!

Well done loonarider.  Hope you managed to sleep after posting & that any lingering side effects will be very mild.  for bravery.

Dierdre, how are you?

I'm very well thanks, was released from isolation 2 days early due to new rules and 2 clear negative tests. So now I'm enjoying being with my family for Christmas.
