I got the call

I must say it made a pleasant change to get something injected in rather than taken out. Probably haven’t had a jab since school, so mid 1960s. Usually they take blood samples from me at 6 month intervals since 2005. Curiously though now during lockdown they refuse my urine sample! One could say they have stopped taking the p***.

That's something else to look forward to then . As it seems like my bout of coronavirus has left me with kaleidoscope vision. 🤣 A new one on me as well. It is getting less frequent as time passes.

You can buy a white powder on the black market to do that.
 
Nothing to do with this vaccine or Covid but I got a real bad dead arm/arm ache with my last flu jab.

I haven’t ventured further than fuel station for the past week so don’t none of you lot go blaming me for dead arms 😂😂😂

I had a pneumonia jab six years ago and was told then that it was a one-off jab.
Couple of weeks ago, had my bloods and pressure tested and was offered the pneumonia jab again, I took it thinking, rightly or wrongly, it would offer some protection against Covid. My bicep swelled like Schwarzenegger's, went bright red and felt like it had been kicked by a horse for a couple of days.

But it didn't kill you, and that's the most important bit.
At least it was just your arm that suffered a reaction.

Try the reaction I had to the Yellow Fever jab I had before going to Thailand!
Knocked me out for around 6 hours when I got back home.
I was staying at my parents at the time, ended laid up in bed delirious.
Apparently I soaked the bedsheets through with sweat twice in that time!!! :oops: o_O 🤒

Don't want to upset you, but a hospital visit is where my husband caught it. Silly me agreed for him to come home and i think i have it now as well. It can't be anything else cos appart from hospital trips I havnt been anywhere else or seen anyone,.

Good news about the call Annie, it can't come soon enough.

Good god Sue, only just read this thread this morning, hope Dave is doing okay, and you’re taking care of yourself, I read one of the other threads and didn’t twig it was Covid you had! doh. Sending love and hugs to you both. xx
 
It's like buses. Wait for ages and then two come together. My darling wife had the letter and booked the jab only to get a call from the doctors surgery offering her an appointment. I asked if I could have it instead but I was told I'm only a youngster.

"ended laid up in bed delirious." What makes you think you have recovered?

"I soaked the bedsheets through with sweat." I think you will find it's called pish!

I would love to know what triggers it. I had it when i was pregnant......far far worse than now. I couldn't open my fridge or freezer doors.....smelled as though something was dead and rotten, nor could I stand to pass the fans used in pubs....,stale beer and cigarettes.
 
We had our injections three weeks ago as yet no reactions we had the Pfizer one. I had a Shingles one last year and a terrible reaction to that my upper are was black, blue yellow for three weeks or more no pain though. We are both suffering from long COVID me far worse I get out of breath very easy tired muscles painful all day just been prescribed a tablet but warned although good it may cause nightmares after a week of restless nights I now take it at lunchtime I’ve got a 56 trial pack to go through. We both had the virus last March my wife stayed at home I ended up in hospital on oxygen.
