Huh, I thought it was a smaller needle! Less painful than flu for me at the time, I barely felt it. Yeah it's weird, I'm glad the massage helped a bit, I'll probably go back in a few weeks if it's still bothering me.
Similar other side effects to you but I wouldn't say they were significant/bad. I didn't feel awful.
(Btw there's a vaccine chat thread we could take this)

Ahhh. Last couple of flu shots I got were tiny little pricks by comparison - and no side effects to speak of.
Years ago when I was getting the flu jab (asthma) I used to feel shitty for days, so stopped bothering with it for years. The AZ jab was basically the same thing, but more short lived.

Ah thanks. I’m terrible for only looking at the forum via the ‘following’ page.

Exactly the same. The only thing I can think of is that the needle seemed a much bigger gauge than the tiny flu one, but then again none of the other people I know that got it have the same soreness. Weird.
Did you get other side effects? I felt pretty horrendous the evening after. Chills/sweats/fatigue.
