Hello,
Anyone had the AZ vaccine yet? If yes, how were you for the first couple of weeks? I am due mine next week so interested to hear others experience.
Had mine nearly 3 weeks ago. Felt fine on the day of jab, but had to snooze all day the next day - felt absolutely fatigued. Fine again after another nights sleep though, and been fine since.
Wow! Brilliant re few side effects. Were you told when you’d receive the second jab? I read up to 90 days.
I've looked in the notebook I use to keep track of symptoms and I did get a headache afterwards. I had the jab on day 12/21 of my chemo cycle, ideally they would have liked me to have it during my week off (15 to 21), but it seems to have worked out fine.
