Looking for positive COVID vaccine experiences

I'm looking for POSITIVE ONLY experiences from others who recieved the COVID vaccine. Please don't share your opinion about vaccines, or your horrible experience. I'm adequately educated. I just want to hear about any and all people who had none to at least VERY LITTLE problems,please! I know a fever, soreness and feeling and a little yucky is normal and tolerable and I don't mind hearing about that. I'm just TERRIFIED to get mine for some reason and my mind is very imaginative, obsessive and I'm just tired of letting the thought of something that I need to do ruin my life and every day. Success stories will REALLY help me to start functioning again lol!

I usually have reactions from vaccines. I have had both doses and a booster and the worst I got was a day of flu like symptoms after the second dose and the booster. And a sense of wellbeing from doing my part to protect my loved ones 👍

thank you so much for sharing your good experience with getting vaccinated! My sense of wellbeing from doing my part to protect my loved ones, myself and my community is why I'm finally making myself do it!

hello, I've had the moderna vaccine 3 times. i had absolutely zero symptoms from my first shot, the only really noticeable thing was arm soreness which went away within 2 days. the other shots were also fine, didn't make me feel any sicker than i normally do. i was worried the shot itself would hurt and nervous going but everybody was really professional and experienced. it didn't hurt. my most recent shot was at my neighborhood Walgreens and it was a totally normal experience and the shot did not have any bad effects. i totally get being nervous but good experiences ARE possible. if you have any specific questions feel free to ask wish you the very best

I had Pfizer plus booster. My Only side effect was my hair falling out. I am now on liquid Silica 12 drops a day. My hair is finally growing back.

I received the J&J one dose and it felt like a fibromyalgia flare up. It lasted about a day and a half but after that I was fine. I received the Pfizer booster and had no reaction at all.

i had very good experiences with the moderna vaccine! i had the 2 dose vaccines, and had the booster shot last year. all the shots were easy and not painful. the next day after each one i had mild soreness in my arm, a low fever, and some body aches, but i was able to function and just needed a little extra rest. i havent gotten covid or even had a scare that i might have it since then. everyone in my family has also been vaccinated with similar experiences as mine. i hope this helps put your mind at ease!

I had Pfizer plus booster and has very minimal side effects. Just some fatigue, muscle aches, maybe a little flu-y. That’s about it.

I definitely feel you, shots in general make me nervous so I was especially nervous for my covid shots lol. The first two shots I got with moderna were okay, a bit of fatigue(my normal reaction to most vaccines) the pfizer booster kinda sucked, I had mild flu like symptoms for a few days but nothing too terrible. My mom was super worried because of the false narrative about how it can be bad for asthmatics but I haven't had a problem with my asthma since getting the shots.

I've had all 3 Pfizer shots. No real side effects besides a little soreness at the injection site. Haven't caught covid yet! 10/10 would do again.

I've had 3 moderna doses (I think the booster was technically a lower dose) and I did not notice much of a change in my usual daily pain and discomfort level. I had covid in March 2020 and I'm doing everything I can to avoid getting it again! I do not know anyone who had more than a day or so of feeling a little ill.

I don’t have the best reactions to some vaccines, so I was very surprised when I got the covid vaccine and had almost no side effects. I was just a bit achey on the first time around. I’ve had both shots and the booster.
