Also, had flu shot at the same time. 4 hours later I felt like I had the flu. Same symptoms as you. Lasted about 12 hours for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utah Bob #35998 Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Minor inconvenience in my opinion. I had a Moderna booster and flu shot at the same time. Uncomfortable for awhile. No big deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackwater 53393 Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Had the Phizer booster. Just like the first two. No issues with reactions. I DID have the nurse hit a nerve in my shoulder the first time! That hurt like HELL for about an hour, but no other issues with any of the three.

Trigger Mike Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 We don't have any cases down in the 2 counties I travel in so many here missed it. Maybe omicron was the virus way of letting us know it is now dying out as a major threat since symptoms are mild Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 I had both Pfizer shots and I'll get the booster. To date, I have lost my BIL April 25, 2020, two female cousins July and August 2020 and last week, my Cousin all to Covid, while they were in LTC Homes.

Pat Riot Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 I had my Moderna booster on Veteran’s Day. Last week I had flu symptoms and was off work 4 days. My doctor thinks it was a reaction to the shot. Weird. My left shoulder has hurt since getting the shot. I look at it as a small price to pay.

Waxahachie Kid #17017 L Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Had covid in August. Our doctor told us that since now we have the anti-bodies, that we don't need the shots, since the shots only address the severity of the symptoms. However, unlike the government, I think it is just fine for the individual to make the decision to take, or not take the shots, either before, or after they have had covid. Or not take them at all. Best wishes on whatever you choose to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowtown Scout, SASS #53540 L Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Got the Moderna booster last week. Arm sore for two days. Day after shot had no energy for the last half of the day and head in a fog. The following day all fine except the sore arm for another day.

Abilene Slim SASS 81783 Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Wife & I got Moderna shots in Feb and since she’s a cancer patient, she got the booster in August. Then we both got Covid anyway around October 1. A few days later we got the monoclonal infusion. I can’t say that it helped as we were feeling better by the time we got the infusion. She was asymptomatic but with some fatigue. I’ve had colds that were worse. We got tested because I asked my doc for an Rx to manage what I thought was a developing sinus infection. Doc agreed but insisted on the test as a precaution. Wife’s oncologist wants her to get a second booster Feb 22. Mine says I can skip the booster for now as she thinks it redundant after recovery from a recent infection. We’ll revisit that in a few months.

Chantry Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Got the Pfizer booster & a flu shot in the left shoulder last Wednesday.

Trigger Mike Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 I never minded it when people got the flu shot every year and I am also fine with people who get the china virus vaccine and boosters. What bothers me is the media yelling all day about how stupid someone is who doesn't get the vaccine even if they have practically zero cases where they live. If I lived in a big city my view might be different, but living in the country where hardly anyone has the virus, there doesn't seem to be a need. I went to a town an hour away and sat near a fully vaccinated person who turned out to be positive for the virus. Neither me nor the others that were near him and shook his hand and hugged him got sick. I was near a kid who had the virus and I was not masked . My son had been masked around him earlier in school. My son got sick. I did not. I also didn't get sick while maskless and caring for my son. Neither did anyone in the family. In Georgia only 11% of the population has gotten the virus.. only 1.6% of those who got sick died from it. I'll wait until it is a real threat here.

When the checks cleared and the credit card bills came in...the balance suffered considerably! Oh, yeah, I've had my Pfizer booster in October.

You don't wait until the crash to put on your seatbelt. I nearly died from this damned thing - because I "waited". Don't wait. Death doesn't.

Joe LaFives #5481 Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Had zero problems with the first two Pfizer and the booster.

Bailey Creek,5759 Posted December 15, 2021 Author Share Posted December 15, 2021 The second Shingles shot kicked me, also . Was in the Fields hauling corn to the elevators. When i climbed out of the Truck felt dizzy . Looked on the paper work i recieved with the Shingles shot . DO NOT OPERATE HEAVY EQUIPMENT . As long as i set still i was fine. Set in Truck didn't get out of it. Flu shots don't bother me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
