Anyone has the Pfizer bivalent booster? Only had 3 x vaccines and beeb advised to get a booster. Side effects are of great concern.
Yes, I got it a couple of months ago. Super painful arm for 2 days, no other effects. About the same as the previous vaxes I've had.
Yep, was sore but not the end of the world.
It knocked me around quite a bit, far worse than the others.
That said, I do have CFS.
Same and a few other issues… got me worried.
Had mine a few months ago with the flu shot. For me it was fine.
Had it 6 months ago, same side effects as Astra Zeneca. Tired, minor head cold, dehydrated for 24 hours. Then all good
I had it about 6 months ago. Also had the flu vaccine at the same time. Sore arm, tiredness and a bit of a fever.
I got mine earlier in the year. Only a minor sore arm from it and no side effects.
I did make a point of resting and sleeping early though.
