I still feel sick, not as bad as I felt on Saturday but I still feel lousy.
I am fatigued, dizzy, weak and I have a slight headache that is constant and stomach issues.
Last night I had some facial numbness where I couldn’t feel my face too well.
This is 5 days after my Pfizer booster shot.
I hope these symptoms aren’t permanent.
Did anyone feel sick after their Covid vaccine shot that lasted days or weeks?
I don’t think this is normal.
I felt bad for about 2 days post Pfizer booster. The uk health website 48 hours is normal.
5 days is quite strange tbh. Maybe worth contacting someone. Did you get a pamphlet when you got the jab. That might have a helpline telephone number?
I was sick for a few days after 1st dose. 2nd dose was better.
No I didn’t get a pamphlet @anon94176359
Do you have a GP/family doctor? They might be able to help
Yes I may give him a call today.
But I don’t think there is much he can do for side effects from a booster shot?
I already cancelled my eye doctor appointment today and I don’t think that I’ll be able to go to my cousins house on Thanksgiving
Did you get the flu shot at the same time? My parents did that and felt very ill for 3 days
I got my shot Tuesday and was sick until Friday evening.
How sick were you @Ninjastar?
How did you cope?
I feel lucky. My booster itched and there was a little swelling but nothing to make me sick. I hope you recover well.
Thanks @PinCushion 15
That’s awful! I hope you feel better soon
I was sick after my second Astra-Zenica shot, less than 24 hours tho.
Im not eligible for the booster i dont think. Ive heard nothing.
Felt just like a very short bout of flu for me.
I’m sorry. I hope the symptoms go away soon. I have mine to book soon but I wanted to book it for after the wedding because of potential side effects.
That’s unusual.
I would call someone, your doctor, a covid shot hotline.
My symptoms only lasted about 24-36 hours with all three of my shots.
Though my flu shot always makes me feel like ■■■■.
I’m sorry you’re feeling awful, @Wave. Like other people have said, maybe try contacting your primary doctor and/or a COVID vaccine hotline.
I hope you feel better soon. 
I was SO sick. Fever, terrible aches, unable to eat, slept like 18 hours a day. I survived by letting Mr. Star wait on me hand and foot.
I’m glad you are feeling better now @Ninjastar
I’m actually feeling a little better this afternoon.
My brother called me up and wants me and my dad to go to my cousins house on Thanksgiving.
I may go with my dad tomorrow.
My brother will be driving, and my brother said that we won’t stay a long time.
Hopefully I’ll feel even better tomorrow.
Who knows this could be my fathers last Thanksgiving.
I called the pharmacy Covid vaccine hotline and she said that it’s normal to feel sick days and sometimes weeks after the booster.
She suggested that I take enough Tylenol and drink plenty of fluids.
