Got My 2nd Moderna Vaccine Today! - Page 2

I get my first shot next week, it will be Pfizer. I know lots of people who have had the vaccine between the ages of 35 to 90. Many of them have serious pre-existing conditions that include: MS, Lupus, RA, cancer, COPD, Diabetes, asthma etc. Majority of them have not had a reaction to the vaccine except one or two had a sore arm for 24 hours, a few had mild headache and two had low fever for a day. They all had Moderna. The others I know who received the Pfizer vaccine reported no side effects at all. Hope this helps.

DH and I got our second shot this past Monday. We both had very slight swelling and slight soreness at sight of injection. That lasted for about 3 days.

Got my 2nd Moderna vaccine today. (I'm in NJ) Was scheduled for the 2nd shot last week but due to the snowstorm, it was cancelled and rescheduled for today. So glad that's behind me now! Hopefully, with more vaccines available to many more people, we'll begin to see the light at the end of the tunnel sooner rather than later.

UPDATE: Thought I would give you all an update on any symptoms after receiving the 2nd Moderna shot. Happy to say, other than a sore muscle at the injection sight, I don't have any complaints and slept like a baby last night!

I received my 2nd Moderna vaccine this week too. My reaction was the next morning. I had the chills like you wouldn't believe for about 4 hours. Otherwise, no reaction and no sore arm.

I got my second Moderna shot last week. No problems w/first shot. Second one, I ran a low grade (100) fever on the second and third day and ached all over. Then the fever broke and I felt better. Arm was sore for a few days, but that is normal for me w/any flu shot. No biggie. Better than having Covid!

I really think it depends on how the components of the injection effect each person. Good luck, all!

I'm still back of the line. Our state is in 1C I'm in general population. It's going to be a lot of people in front of me. I've said this before....I think next year for me. Our state seems to have the Pfizer instead of that other one.

My second shot of Pfizer was on Tuesday. I had a bit of stiffness and my arms' range of motion was affected. I felt this when reaching for water bottles stored on top if the fridge above my head. This lasted throughout the second day. I also had swelling in my armpit which lasted through the second day. I'm almost envious of those that more of a reaction because this means the vaccine is working. I'm not so sure of the efficacy of the vaccine in obese patients with a higher BMI. This has never been studied. No morbidly obese subjects were involved in any of the trials and as far as I know there has been no effort to test morbidly obese persons for COVID antibodies subsequent to their second vaccinations. I sure wish the vaccine makers or the NIH would do this. I found it very disheartening when it was only recently found that influenza vaccines were much less effective in the obese. My hope is that mRNA vaccines, utilizing a different technology, will provoke a more robust response.

@Wsmom - got my second Moderna on Wednesday. The injection site hurt only when I would touch it (so don't touch it, duh!) and it itched a little. That was it.💗
