Johnson & Johnson Vaccine - My Side Effects

Поделиться
HTML-код
  • Опубликовано: 13 апр 2021
  • Monday, I got the Johnson and Johnson vaccine, and because I'm in good health and run about 60 miles per week, I was thinking I would possibly feel some side effects but would be able to power through them. I was pretty wrong about that. Also, I happened to have gotten the Johnson and Johnson vaccine the day before the federal government announced a pause on using this vaccine.

      I feel great. since this video, I've raced a marathon, an ultramarathon, placed 3rd in the USATF Masters Championship in the Steeple Chase, and am currently training for a triathlon.
      I didn't take any analgesics or other medicines to reduce symptoms, as I did not feel they were necessary.

      I took the J&J shot August of last year and my arms & legs went numb 5 minutes after the injection. The pharmacy technician told me to wait an entire 30 minutes instead the usual 15 min observation period. Left the observation area and had trouble walking to my car.
      Felt like poison ☠️ had been injected into my body. After about 90 minutes all of the effects suddenly went away. Won’t be getting the J&J shot ever again!!!

    Had the J&J vaccine in the morning a month and a half ago. I didn’t feel when the needle went in. Then the injection site felt a little bit sore about 3-5 minutes after the injection and my arm felt like heat was going down my arm for about 3-5 minutes. Went to work immediately after the vaccine. I had absolutely no side effects at all after that. Went about my life as usual.

      I had developed hyperthyroidism (self diagnosed via lab work) months ago and looking at natural meds I came across information. Selenium pills, one per day and walnut oil (gently rubbed daily on the thyroid for 5 minutes). I felt a bump on the left side of my thyroid which is now almost gone.... and all the other symptoms I had are now gone too. Just sharing in case you'd like to try something natural on your thyroid cysts.

    Yeah, my reaction to the J&J was sort of similar. I felt fine that night, had the shot at 4pm, and even did an easy bike workout. But I woke up about 12 hours after the shot covered in sweat and felt cold as soon as I would take the blanket off just like you. Also had a massive headache. Slept for the next 6-8 hours off and on. But after about 8 hours I actually felt fine and went for a 6 mile run. And yeah, we got the shot around the same time and I saw that article as well. Was a little nervous at first reading the article but took a breath and realized that it was only 6 women, although that's my sex, out of nearly 7 million people who've been given the shot. I did monitor during those next weeks and thankfully nothing else came up. Glad I got the shot too...hopefully 1 step closer to being able to go back to "normal". Glad you are doing better!!

    Thank you so much for posting this. I have had almost the exact same experience but accompanied by the worst inner-ear burning of my life. Headache on the front and back of my skull. Very sensitive skin and everything I touch feels like sandpaper. Your recollection is absolutely on point with the cold sweats, extreme fatigue and lack of sleep. It also woke me up at almost exactly the 12 hour mark after the jab. It’s been 24 hours post jab, 12 hours with these horrible symptoms plus intense sensitivity to light and sound. Taking midol helped a lot. My pharmacist said I was having a stronger reaction than she has witnessed in anyone else which really worried me. Watching this video and reading comments made me feel soooo much better. I really really appreciate this. 🙏

    I had the AZ vaccine on Saturday. Ran to the vaccine centre about 2k, then did another 8k after getting the shot. That night felt super tired and had sore shoulders and back, similar to the aching feeling you get with a flu.
    Sunday felt less sore, and went for 10 mile run. HR was in line with pace, but I didnt' feel amazing.
    Monday felt no pain anymore, ran a quicker 9 miler and felt great during the run. Felt a bit tired after.

    I got the J&J shot 3 weeks ago. I took the day of off as more precautionary. That evening I started to feel minor flu like symptoms for the next 24 hrs with some restless sleep like you described. So the next day was a no go running-wise. I was able to return the following day to an easy, shorter run and from there resume my normal routine. I did have a lingering head ache and some muscle aches for an additional 24 hrs. I learned a couple days later that I had accidentally had been brewing decaff coffee all week so that might have skewed my perceptions a bit. Doh!

Nasty headache like my brain was too big for my skull. Couldn't think straight at all. Sweltering hot until I moved, then so cold I shook uncontrollably... then somehow both at once. Too uncomfortable to sleep, or move, or watch tv, or talk. Just sat/laid/sat/laid on the couch for hours. Finally got back to sleep like 6 hours later, woke up more comfortable but still dumb and slow. Gradually got better over the next day, now I feel fine again.

    I received the J&J shot a week ago. I have taken a flu shot consistently every year for the last 20 years so I know what to expect and can time it down to the hour when the side effects kick in, which is 9 hours for me after a shot. The J&J covid shot was absolutely identical in side effects and duration for me, no more or less. Took the shot at noon and at 9 p.m. slight elevated temperature kicked in with short intermittent headaches and mild chills accompanied by a general feeling of malaise for two hours and then it was over. Back to normal the following day with the exception of feeling like taking a nap in the afternoon which is uncommon for me. Injection site had the same soreness for a few days from the needle ripping through tissue, but no different than a standard flu shot.

As in having trouble really reaching for that last gear on my runs. Also, like you've mentioned, additional soreness after runs.

On 2nd day I had already milder headaches and temperature (37.0). Hope these side effects will disappear soon.

    So weird - I, too, took the J&J vaccine about a month ago and have had no side effects at all. In fact the day after I said I wouldn’t run, but was itching to get out and so did anyway. This is purely anecdotal at this point, but a fellow runner is studying what correlates with strong reactions and when I told her I had no symptoms she asked (surprisingly) “Do you drink milk?”. I said that I love milk. I also had been doing runs at lunch in the sunshine. So she thinks Vitamin D could be an influence. Just curious about your Vitamin D intake. Just something to ponder.
