I got the COVID vaccine, my experience! 💉

So I’m 17 and I got the COVID vaccine.
At first I felt nothing, but after 12 hours of the vaccination
My body started burning up, headache, nausea , fatigue, pain in my arm, and dizziness
I took a pain killer and I slept in and when I woke up I was feeling all better!
though my arm still slightly hurts.
I got the Oxford vaccination
While My older sister who is 29 got the Pfizer and she said she felt nothing besides arm pain.
So I guess from a person to another the side effects differ , but it’s not life threatening.
That’s just my own experience , again from a person to another this differs !!💞
Ps: I only took the first dose second one not yet, having it or not is a personal opinion, and I also had it for free.

I have chosen not to have this vaccine.
@JerseyGal The AZ one in particular, or any?

@SomeMichGuy
Any. I will not be getting the Covid vaccine at all.
@JerseyGal Sorry to hear that.

@SomeMichGuy
I'm not sorry at all. I just refuse to be injected again after I've had a vaccine injury a few years ago.
@JerseyGal Wow...that is horrible. Did you have an allergic/anaphylactic reaction to a component, or that... G____-Barré problem, or...?

That is rough, any way you slice it!

I actually had pain in my arm the night of the vaccination, that traveled up towards my shoulder. It would come and go at first, then got worse and my shoulder made clicking noises. Eventually I couldn't lift it. Ended up needing shoulder surgery for a slap tear. The surgeon said it was one of the worst he'd seen and most times you see those in athletes. 🤷
@JerseyGal What the...?

And they think it was because of the vaccine you had just had? That is really, really strange!

Sounds incredibly painful, as well.

Yes if they are not placed in the proper spot.
When you research vaccine injuries, you'd be surprised how many there are and how much has been paid out.
There are vaccine attorneys all over that deal with this.

If you click on that first data link, it gives a lot of info from over many years and payouts.
@JerseyGal Thanks...I'll check this out. I am surprised that someone was inept enough as to give a vaccination in the wrong place.

I'd think it would be like heart operations: you want to go where they do 500 a year, not 50 (the numbers are higher for giving injections, but you understand).

The CoViD places run by healthcare systems seem to be staffed by people who are doing thousands of injections, & probably already had a bit of experience. OTOH, pharmacies like Rite-Aid did not have dedicated vaccination staff (maybe that changed with the distribution monies in the last big bill), so it may have varied widely in terms of experience vaccinating ppl.
@JerseyGal Thank you for the link. I'm still on the fence about getting the Covid vaccine. I am NOT a proponent of ANY vaccine. I'm going to wait a while to see what develops from these particular vaccines (which, I understand, are not true vaccines, but experimental drugs).
