The lymph node in my armpit was swollen and sore - that lingered for about 48+ hours. The booster hit me hard starting about 6/8 hrs after - chills, sore, achy joints, tired, felt hungover for about 24 hrs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/covid-booster-side-effect#post-2925707 Mon, 06 Dec 2021 12:16:13 +0000 Mommy Finger 2925707@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't. I was a little achy and tired the next day but that was it. And my arm was a little sore but nothing like when I got the first two shots. It was normal sore like after a flu shot. I felt like my arm was hit by a baseball bat with the first 2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/covid-booster-side-effect#post-2925698 Sat, 04 Dec 2021 23:31:23 +0000 bhbee 2925698@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! Putting on deodorant was very uncomfortable and it bothered me throughout the day. I feel like it took 4-5 days to resolve. Surprised me since I didn’t have it from second shot (or first). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/covid-booster-side-effect#post-2925697 Sat, 04 Dec 2021 22:29:47 +0000 Mrs. Carrot 2925697@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup, both with the 2nd shot and the booster, my underarm was very swollen for a couple days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/covid-booster-side-effect#post-2925685 Sat, 04 Dec 2021 06:56:30 +0000 meadow 2925685@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes!!!

It lasted for a few days. The one in my arm pit was so swollen it hurt to have my arm at rest by my side! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/covid-booster-side-effect#post-2925670 Fri, 03 Dec 2021 11:51:22 +0000 erinbaderin 2925670@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not eligible for a booster yet but my healthcare worker friends who got theirs all said they had this. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/covid-booster-side-effect#post-2925667 Fri, 03 Dec 2021 09:09:33 +0000 Bluemasonjar 2925667@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A friend of mine had swollen lymph nodes in her arm pit after the booster but it went down after a few days.</p> <p>My side effects were the same as my second shot, just some fatigue. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/covid-booster-side-effect#post-2925666 Fri, 03 Dec 2021 07:40:56 +0000 Chuckles 2925666@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did. It was kind of painful and my breast also seemed a little swollen. It took about 5 days to go away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/covid-booster-side-effect#post-2925665 Fri, 03 Dec 2021 07:18:28 +0000 mamabolt 2925665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn’t, but my friend did to the point of her breast on that side also swelling up. It went away after a day or two. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/covid-booster-side-effect#post-2925664 Thu, 02 Dec 2021 22:31:11 +0000 karenbme 2925664@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn’t. But, my SIL was told by her doctor to delay a mammogram for a month because the booster would light up all the lymph nodes in her armpits, so it seems like a normal side effect. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/covid-booster-side-effect#post-2925663 Thu, 02 Dec 2021 22:09:36 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2925663@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Did anyone else have swollen lymph nodes in their armpit on the same side as their shot? </p>
