Hi all! I got my first Pfizer vaccine appointment booked but it’s the day before a workday where I have to be super productive, SO, I’m wondering: if you’ve gotten a first does of Pfizer, what were your symptoms like the next day? Also, I understand symptoms are different by age and gender, so state your gender and age or age range. Thanks! I’ll make sure to update this with my side effects provided this gets some responses. **Update: please indicate which day you felt the symptoms (day of or next day?)** Male, 35 TC 235k #covid-19 #pfizer #vaccine
Got slight nausea and moderate tiredness. Also, emotional irritability. Age 36, M, and have never had any side effects with other vaccines
My arm hurt a bit and I felt tired. Next day my arm was still a bit sore but I felt normal. Age 28 Male
Male, 30, sore arm and fatigue
Sore arm, slight headache that went away with excederin
Sore arm the next day, that's it.
80% of people who experienced bad side effects were women, so being male helps a lot. In your demographic, you'd have maybe a 4% chance of bad symptoms on the first dose and 7% on the second. I had slight joint + throat pain that day with a mildly sore arm the next. My girlfriend's arm become ~25% swollen for two days with bad fatigue and chills plus a migraine. My wife had a fever plus other badness and needed to skip classes the next day; although, she had very mild side effects on the second dose.
Sore arm after the first dose, but the second dose put me on my ass all day and kept me up all night. It passed after about 24 hours, but be prepared to take it easy the day after you get it.
dose 1 was nothing
Really sore arm the first dose for about two days. Second dose was more problematic. Felt pretty meh for three days. Still way better than covid

Absolutely nothing except a little local arm pain for a few hours the next day. Even less so in from the second shot.
