Anyone get a mix-and-match booster yet? Side effects?

Why couldn’t you get another Pfizer?

I would never do that. All the testing is based on consistency with the shots. The side effects will likely be the same for you if you stick with the SAME brand. I think a different brand may bring different side effects. Good luck!

R1 - the science seems to be that mixing and matching is more effective. Also, Moderna was better more time out than Pfizer.

If I die, though, you can have my stuff. But you’ll have to fight my partner for it.

I had the Pfizer vaccine and had a 4 month cough and a still inflamed lung, so I want to get a different booster.

I was a mixed Astra Zenica/Moderna, OP. No side effects aside from a sore arm and mild chills, and some are saying that mixed doses provide more protection. Anyway, I recently got another shot of Moderna for travel if needed, now it seems that wasn't necessary since other countries are recognizing mixed doses.

What’s all this “some say” the mixed vaccines are better. Who says that? Where are the studies?

That's bullshit R2. All the data now suggests otherwise. Do some reading.

[quote]the science seems to be that mixing and matching is more effective. Also, Moderna was better more time out than Pfizer.

The science indicates that mixing AZ and an mRNA is more effective. There are no such studies on mixing the mRNA vaccines, as far as I know.

Here’s a link.

I’m not interested in may/maybe. I’ll take a third Pfizer.

That Nature article makes it sound like mixing an adenovirus vaxx like AZ with an mRNA vaxx like Moderna is more effective than two doses of AZ. But what about the opposite? If you had Moderna first, is it more beneficial to get an AZ or J&J booster? Or should you continue with an mRNA booster? And does it matter if you mix Moderna with Pfizer? Or should you stick with one or the other?

It doesn't really matter, OP. All the shots are lethal. You have ADE now! Enjoy winter!

My husband had the J&J vaccine in June and got a Pfizer booster in August, with no adverse reactions of any kind to either shot.

YMMV, OP.

I am dosed.🤞

18 hours later: only soreness where the needles went in (got the flu shot too).

I had Moderna yesterday and the mood swings are the worst. Today I wept because I forgot to run the dishwasher overnight.

My mother had AZ for her first two shots. She had a Pfizer booster last week. The next day she had muscle aches, bone aches (?) and was very tired. They all passed overnight and she is fine now.

Small price to pay for additional protection.

Had Moderna for my first two, Pfizer for my booster. Felt a tad ickier with Pfizer but overall just had a sore arm. No other side effects. But then again, I didn't have any the first time.

I had Pfizer for the first two shots, Moderna (half the dose) for the third one. Nothing weird happened.

R17That sounds an awful lot like Menopause! FFS…Hope you’re feeling better. This is the first I’ve heard if mood swings; crying jags suck.

Two Moderna, one Pfizer for me. I couldn’t sleep after the Moderna jabs. I felt feverish, mildly agitated and restless. Nothing at all noticeable after Pfizer. Learning Moderna is more effective against Omicron; I wish I would have stayed with Moderna. Oh well, who knew. I’m certain these won’t be the last recommended jabs,”: plenty of opportunity to have another Moderna in the future I reckon.

I encourage everyone who had two Pfizers and are considering switching to a Moderna not to.

Apart from the r21 describes my symptoms of being like menopause, as have women of Twitter.

Others still who went Pfizer-Pfizer-Moderna are describing feeling like they are taking meth, steroids or high doses of prednisone.

I will take the achy breaks fly symptoms of Pfizer over this ANY day.

I got the Pfizer shots and booster. I got my booster yesterday. Today my arm aches, I feel weak and lightheaded. Also kind of achy. I hope it goes away by tomorrow.
