While my wife saw the GP who is not going to refer her to the Long Covid clinic in the hope that they'll take her as 'thats where all the expertise is' at the moment. No idea how long that might take, and all the information we can find about the clinics are they are mainly about helping you to...

That must have been very scary - how are you both doing? Have they given her anything for the blood pressure and has her calf started to reduce in size? My wife is a little better than she has been but still unable to do much without getting fatigued. She has more blood tests this week, and...

Sorry to hear about your wife - hope they can get to the bottom of it and help her soon so she starts to feel better. Not helpful advice about the second jab though! If its of any help in deciding, my wife had her second jab on Friday and other than some fluey symptoms overnight and a mildly...

Very glad to see that most of you have short-term, mild or even no side effects :thumbsup: My other half is still suffering with side effects 10 weeks after her first jab :nono: Doctor has finally done some blood tests which show something with her white blood cells which indicate either an...

Thanks for all the responses! Seems like the normal reaction is just a few days which is what I had too. After initially looking like she was improving my wife is still suffering with fatigue and the headache has now come back (4.5 weeks later) so is going back to the doctor :( Whilst...

We finally had some good news this week as my wife is starting to feel better and is able to do more - only taken 18 days... :eek:

How are you doing today chrisg? Hope the side effects don't last too long

I did wonder that myself, but shes just spoken to our doctors and they are still completely unconcerned so I guess we'll just have to hope it works itself out. She does seem to have got very unlucky! I've got my first jab on Weds so am hoping I don't have the same reaction!! :eek:

We're fairly sure she hasn't had it, though obviously she could've been asymptomatic so we wouldn't have known. We've been extremely careful even since before the very first lockdown as she has asthma so we think if she had caught it she would've been poorly but who knows for sure!

Thanks for all the replies so far - glad none of you have had more than a few days of symptoms if any! Looks like my other half has just got unlucky with having symptoms that go on so long. Hopefully they will go soon! :down:

Morning all, Given all the noise about blood clots and AstraZeneca at the moment, its very hard to find out about other side effects and how long they should last. My wife had the AstraZeneca vaccine 10 days ago and is still not well - she has no energy/needs to have at least one nap a day and...
