Same - 2nd moderna yesterday at 3pm, same sore arm as first time came through (only symptoms on 1st jab) then 8pm felt awful with shivers and headache. Still there this morning but gone pretty much by 12 today. Just feel a bit tired and weak now.
Hope not as my first one knocked the crap out of me 😬
As many above, other than achy upper arm, nothing after 1st Moderna. After second, fine all day but in evening started to feel a bit shite. Night was sleepless with fever & shivers all night. Wiped out next day for a bit, prob due to lack of sleep but fine after that.
The boss and me got our second moderna injection on Monday and within a few hours the sore arm that we got on the first one was already feeling worse. Went to bed early that night but didnt get to sleep until about 5am I was like a furnace and spent a good while hunched over the toilet waiting to puke (didnt in the end but im not sure if it would have been better if i had) Mrs K was freezing and had shivers most of the night. Next day apart from being tired I wasn't too bad but she was getting really bad stomach cramps she likened to contractions.
It wasnt a nice night
OP here, can confirm the 2nd was every bit as bad as the first. Several days of temperatures, nausea, headache with both jabs. Strangely I woke up with a sore arm this morning, 11 days post jab, the soreness had gone away 5 or 6 days ago. Could be the booze I had last night has reignited some inflammation.
Had my second Pfizer on Wednesday - for me, it wasn't too bad. Did a day's uplift at Innerleithen on Thursday (poor planning on my part). By the evening I was more tired than I should have been and just wanted to curl up in the corner. I slept like a log and feel pretty much 100% this morning. My arm is slightly sore if I poke at it and that's about it.
I don't think there's any hard and fast rule. In my case, pretty mild side effects and pretty similar.
