MAC and getting the COVID vaccine

@ling123 I have had bad reactions to both doses. I don’t know if it’s because I am on the Big 3 and Arikayce and am the size of a ten year old or what it is ... but I am struggling to get over this. I have been very nauseous but have not “ lost my cookies.” For me the side effects of the second Moderna have been brutal. ( chills, fever, aches - and I had it on Monday). I could not get out of bed on Tuesday. I wish there were a smaller dose for small people! The good news is that I guess it means that at age 71 my body is able to react to it and is making antibodies. My Chinese daughter GUI had the very painful armpit lymph gland thing and a very swollen , red, hot, and painful arm. My husband, age 75 had the Pfizer and had no side effects. One of our children was fortunate enough to get the J and J vaccine - one and done and had no side effects. So crazy, but soon I can hug again - and again - and again. @irene5

I had my 2nd Pfizer shot on Tuesday at 9 am. At about 5 pm in the afternoon my heart went onto tachycardia. I have medication for it so i took it and went to bed. Next day I had muscle aches, exhaustion, and a low grade fever of 100.5 which lasted for the day. Now it’s Friday and I have been having the afib attacks on and off with my heart rate going as high as 130 beats per minute. Has anyone else had heart symptoms after their vaccine???

@irene5 OMG Irene! I had no idea. Hope you'll get through this very soon. This is the first time I have heard of nausea and vomiting as side effects of the vaccine. I felt nothing except achiness at the injection site for my first shot. I'm getting my second shot this afternoon. Wonder how I will feel afterwards. I never had COVID and have not been on big 3. Everybody I know across the country who have had Moderna has either no side effect whatsoever, or very minor ones. Fingers crossed.
