Thanks everybody. I just hadn't heard much about the J&J shot except the pause. All vaccines have risks so I don't consider the blood clot one to be a big issue due to the low percentage rate, and I do have a genetic blood clotting issue.
The J&J is the only one I'm currently willing to do and even that is a compromise. I don't really want to get one at all, so if I'm going to get one, it will have to be the one I prefer. There will be no boosters for me though. It will truly be a one and done. I don't do the flu shot and I will not be getting an annual covid shot either.
I currently have an appt. on Thursday assuming they don't cancel it. I did have to specifically ask about the J&J shot to find out they had it at my Publix.

@Icegoddess I had the J&J vaccine just before it was "paused". Had no side effects at all, my arm wasn't even sore. I know quite a few people who have had the J&J with zero effects.

I am 70 years old and on March 8 got the J&J vaccine. I had NO problems. I have had some problems with the Shingles and pneumonia shots.

My stepson and his wife had the J&J two days before it was paused. They had no side effects that I'm aware of.
A close friend also had it, the day before it was paused and experienced only very slight fatigue.

I got the J&J vaccine and had absolutely no side effects, nor did my grandson and his family, other than the one Aunt who is always complaining about her aches and pains and said her arm hurt for days and days. I am in my early 80's and was glad to get the vaccine.

I received the J&J vaccine in April and experienced 0 side effects. I didn't even have a sore arm.
Two weeks later, my son received the J&J vaccine. The only side effect he had was a tiny bit of soreness at the injection site. The soreness lasted less than 24 hours.

@Icegodde Why are you going to get this Shot? You sound like you are doing this because you think you have too? Believe you don't..Please reconsider and wait and see for a little bit more. You said something about a Genetic Blood Clotting Issue. I would seriously think about not taking it right now. You do know this is a TRIAL,they weren't fully tested..you are the test.The trials are to be finished in Jan 2023.They then will determine THE SAFETY & EFFICASY OF THEM..Think about it
