I received my second dose of Pfizer yesterday and I am quite ill today. I had a 102 fever and chills this morning and now I have a headache and sore throat. Did anyone else who has gotten the Pfizer vaccine have some kinda serious side effects like I have?
Anyway. Getting back to the topic.
I just had the second Pfizer vaccine Wednesday, Bill Gates and ancient aliens and crystal skulls with microchips and GMO notwithstanding.
The day after was OK: fatigue, chills, probably a slight fever (I couldn't find my thermometer).
However last night, at about 0200, so roughly 36 hours after the vaccine I woke up unable to breathe through my nose (probably what woke me up), with horrid congestion, just like a flu or a cold.
Managed to get back to sleep somehow, and feel fine today, at almost 48 hours past.
I did follow the recommendation to not take ibuprofen ("Advil") prior to the shot, but I did allow myself to have 1600 mg the day after (I think that's about eight pills in the OTC formulation, or two of the prescription-strength that I use for persistent muscular soreness, taken about eight hours apart).
Other people I've talked to reported no real symptoms, but I figure it's a neutral or positive thing to engage the immune system. At least I know the immune response was functional.
