I had aches and fatigue and a really, really bad headache the day after my 2nd pfizer, was pretty much fine after that though

i'm kind of hopeful this also leads to a pancorona vaccine. some of the antibodies generated do flip against seasonal coronaviruses.

after my shot (J&J) I had a few days of mild shoulder soreness and one bad night of chills but it all went away quickly

the more data i get the more it appears to be entirely random.

everyone in my bubble got the pfizer one and side effects at both injections ranged from nothing but a sore arm to three days in bed with a high fever and vomiting.

i had only a sore arm but i do notice that there's a tiny red bump still at each injection site weeks later. meh

After I get the full effects of the second shot I'm going to show up at my buddy's place without notice like "hey what's up, we're hangin' now" and see how much happiness and annoyance can fit in a person at the same time.

my first one caused every side effect on the list but they all mostly vanished by the time i woke up the next morning

i understand the reason for having to wait a few weeks before the 2nd but it's almost a week away still and i just want to get it over with because i'm assuming it'll be just as bad if not worse

yeah. Not only am i concerned about getting wiped by shot2, but since mine was cancelled because a reiki woo nursing office let 4,000 doses rot at room temperature, none of the other places will even let you _sign up_ for a shot 2 of mrna until 28.000000 days after your first. So i've got a busy weekend ahead of me.

i had a very sore arm with fatigue and overnight chills after pfizer #1, fatigue and chills cleared after 24h, and soreness cleared by 48h. tbh it was about as bad as any other vaccine i've gotten so it doesn't feel like much to report.

i apparently had covid last year so i'm hoping that the first shot was the bad one and my immune system will handle #2 better.

its so weird how different people's reactions are.

I got the first round of moderna at the end of december and had just mild headache and body fatigue day after. 0 symptoms at all after second dose. but my coworker described the pain she had after first like her bones were on fire. another coworker had full blown nausea and vomiting after second dose.

he was like damn.
the night of both my Pfizer shots I’ve had this warm fuzzy brainfeeling that made me fall dead asleep on the couch for a few hours, and the usual sore arm nonsense, but shot 2's side effects seem to just be "kinda sleepy and ow my arm" for now.

more bleeding at the injection site this time, which is weird.

The only thing that seems maybe a little consistent is that women react worse than men.

i was wondering about that, is it for sure not some dumb toxic masculinity thing where men don’t end up reporting reactions to seem tough? i guess if it’s from the trials it’s probably not that but if it’s from the cdc phone checker thing then maybe it could be biased.

it could be that men complain more than women when they experience the same level of pain, or given that we have no objective way of measuring pain, it could simply be that men feel greater pain than a woman does given the same stimulus.

i dunno, but among my friend group at least only the women had the bad fevers and vomiting and whatnot. the dudes all had a headache or nothing.

It's estrogen!


quote:

Sexual dimorphism in immunity has been described in both arms of immunity, innate and adaptive (20). Generally testosterone has an immunosuppressive effect while estrogen has an immunoenhancing effect on the immune system. Estrogen has been shown to regulate immune response by impairing negative selection of high affinity auto-reactive B cells, modulating B cell function and leading to Th2 response (21, 22). Estrogen influences physiological functions via ERs which are expressed in brain, gut epithelial cells, lymphoid tissue cells as well as immune cells (23, 24). Estrogen also induces T cell homing by enhancing the expression of CCR5, a homing marker (25). Based on the relative numbers of various immune cells in males and females, overall immune response is sexually dimorphic and determines pathogenicity (Figure ​(Figure1).1). On the other hand, immune regulation by androgens such as testosterone impacts the immune system by augmenting Th1 response and activation of CD8 cells while down-regulating natural killer (NK) cells response, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFα) and increasing the production of anti-inflammatory IL-10 (26, 27). This is supported by studies showing that in vitro presence of testosterone leads to a higher production of Th1 by peripheral blood cells with a higher Th1:Th2 ratio in men (28, 29). The dichotomy of sex-specific response was shown in a humanized mouse model of inflammation where exogenous supply of estradiol and castration in male mice led to an increase in autoimmunity (30) by augmenting Major Histocompatibility Complex II (MHCII) expression and modulating B cells function (31). B cells are targets for treatment in many diseases including rheumatoid arthritis (RA), lupus and multiple Sclerosis (MS). Depletion of B cells in ongoing arthritis in female mice showed higher efficacy as compared to males (32). Similar observations were reported in patients treated with Rituximab where women achieved remission more frequently than men (33). A predominant role of sex hormones has been suggested as the main cause of sex-biased autoimmune diseases like RA and MS (5). Remission of RA and lupus during pregnancy further support a role of female sex hormones in immune response. Although consideration of patient's sex for treatment is not a practice, sex differences in immune response suggest that sex-based treatments would be optimal.

They complain because they know someone will listen.
