if you are worried contact your gp, I had the Pfizer vaccine and had no problems with it myself but every one is different, I haven't heard of the heart issues for it though. Like I say if you are worried speak to your gp and see What they have to say. Where did you read about the vaccine causing heart problems if you don't mind me asking?

Have you spoken to your GP about it? |

The media have a tendency to over exaggerate things but as suggested speak to you go also here is a link to the patient info sheet for the Pfizer vaccine https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/regulatory-approval-of-pfizer-biontech-vaccine-for-covid-19/information-for-uk-recipients-on-pfizerbiontech-covid-19-vaccine it does mention the heart palpitations and increased heart rate but as a rare side effect seen in the second dose that would be the best in for to look at and again contact the go as side effects can happen |

Do you have a racing heart? Numbness or tingling sounds like the vaccine may have been injected too high up - there is a phenomenon called vaccine shoulder (not specific to Covid vaccines, but to vaccines in general).
Instead of worrying at home, make an appointment to speak to a GP. Any numbness or tingling should be evaluated as there are myriad reasons (for example, I have it due to shoulder impingement and possible carpal tunnel syndrome). |

"I don't have a racing heart thank god ,but my arm has not been the same since I had the vaccine,they injected a quarter below my right shoulder,it aches and I get numbness now and again."
Should be three fingers width down from the nobbly bit of the head of the humerus (long bone of the arm), right in the deltoid muscle. |

Fill out the Yellow Card on the MHRA website and report the side effects. I hope you feel better soon. |

Intra muscular jab's can be a bugger, and you may have subconsciously tensed up a little and the needles done a little damage to the muscle tissue
Alternatively they might have caught a nerve
Talk to your doctor, it's probably nothing serious |

Did you have a previous injury around the area that doesn't feel quite right?
I've heard of people having pain where they have had previous injuries, I think inflammation brought some pain back.
Also please make sure you report to the yellow card scheme, I believe that less than 10% of people do report the side effects and it is important that there is some kind of database.
Contact your doctor, and hopefully you will feel better quickly. |

"So this is the best place for medical advice now?!
Surely if your worried or having problems you should contact your GP?  "
The number of people who come to second vaccine appointments, saying they've had X, Y and Z happen but who have NOT sought medical advice is actually very surprising. A great number of the issues they mention are highly unlikely or impossible to be related to the vaccine, so they don't even have that "explanation". I've already recommended one person seeks immediate advice for a dodgy looking patch of dark skin, for example. And lots of other things raised along the lines of "other health complaints" that they've been ignoring for a period of time longer than from when they had a first vaccine... |

That effect is called paresthesia, it is a known, but rare, side effect of all vaccinations. If it continues for more than a few days, medical advice should be sought. Usually people recover in a few weeks. |

If I was you I wouldn't bother speaking to a professional, someone who has trained years just for this, namely your GP. If I was you I would log on to a Sex Site probably a Swinging Site and then ask everyone logged into the forum. There is bound to be a bricklayer on there who will make you better. |

I was going to ask the same question. My 17 year old is also keen. |

OP...go onto NHS 111 online or ring them, they will be able to advise you on this matter. For medical matters that are worrying you... ALWAYS get NHS medical advice.... don't ask on a forum or online.

I am curious too. I see it is recently licenced for 16 - 18 year olds with serious underlying conditions but it appears no doses have been given yet. |

"I will be contacting my GP this week ."
If concerned, call them straight away (via 911) or explain it to a nurse or doctor at your GP - don’t rely on Fab to sort it out. Hope it is nothing other than mild side effects. |

No it's not and the op has been advised by many to see his GP..
That doesn't mean that others who have professional experience can't offer advice but the overall message is as you rightly point out, see the GP..  |

Could be underlying health or on the trials for that age groups..
We've had 17 yr olds through who have a caring role and clinical lead has ok'd a jab.. |

Had same vaccine on Tuesday and woke up with temperature some nausea and mega aches and pains causing me to have my first sick day in 6 years lol,
Still aching today but manageable it affects everyone differently, D was sick and nearly fainted out but felt OK after about 7 hours
As always if it really is a worry call GP or 111 for peace of mind

There's a recent article on Science Based Medicine called "Covid-19-19 and balancing the risks: the vaccine or the virus" which gives some numbers for mRNA vaccines and the risk of these heart issues |

"First mistake you did is your first dose...don't do same mistake again  "
I've had both of mine thankfully, as have all but 2 of my children. 1 is too young and one has only just had his first dose.
Not one had issues. |

But we only have a persons claim that they are professionals who can offer advice that is right, it may not be the case that they are who they say they are and the advice could be wrong.
Sharing experiences is good though and the advice of speaking to a GP ( if you manage to get that ) |
