User Reviews for Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine (PF)(EUA) intramuscular

Extremely painful and no guarantee that you are not contracting the vaccine. Moderna is probably best and yet no guarantee for anything. Very disappointing and yes probably better than dying, however multiple measures at the same time are required for a vaccination to be successful. The SARS in 2009 seemed to be better controlled. at least on Canadian soil.

Massive hair loss 2,5 months after 2nd Pfizer vaccine. Massive hair loss 2,5 months after Pfizer booster. I'm almost bald now. Well done Pfizer ??

Always had regular periods. Since having the second jab I am no longer ovulating or having periods. I know a few of my friends have also stopped their periods since having the second jab.

Got my vaccinations. No covid. Very minimal side effects.

The 73-year-old male blood type A positive had the shots October and November 2021. It is now September 2022. I feel miserable workout everyday for an hour plus 10 minutes lifting weights. Sorry I took the shot. In that time frame I've gained 15 lb after working out I feel like I have done nothing prior to that I felt refreshed after working out and now it just doesn't work

male, 24y/o, 170cm, 82kg. i never take medicine and never count on it, i once got positive from covid with 0 illness, i feel nothing. i'm healthy as freak. i thought i was a demigod, and cured with nothing i do nothing, there's a medical record for that. yesterday they gave me vaccine from "Pfizer" i dont know it was written "Vaccine Pfizer covid-19" i think she hit me hard, idk. it kinda swell a bit, just a bit, like little instant muscle growth on my arm, on "Deltoid muscle", a bit hurt, kinda feel discomfort if you work with this condition another symptoms was a bit stomache hurt, like you have done 20 sit up, not that hurt but you can Feel it haha, weird i kinda lose my appetite, i'm kinda fat so i should feel hungry everytime but not today, i think this is a mental problem but i think i start getting immune, usually if there is someone cough near me i feel a bit sick, but now its like pffftt The main poin was it -a bit swell on my left arm (where they inject it) 2 day after injection still -a bit stomache hurt, -kinda lose appetite for 82kg person like me, +i think its kinda work, i never take medicine so i think its effectiveness increase but how my body adapt to this condition always discomfort me, but i'm not that weak to handle it. i guess from my point of view i can only see this changes happened.

I haven’t caught covid either the regular 2 shots but ever since i’ve got it i’ve been feeling pains in my left arm randomly

My feet/ankles began to swell right after getting the 1st Covid vaccine. It has been getting worse over the past 9 months. I did not have any problem with my feet before getting the vaccine. I am currently working with my doctor.

Have had weight gain and inability to Lose it since getting fully vaccinated. I also got Covid twice since getting vaccinated.

Gained over 15 pounds since the covid vaccine! No changes in diet or food intake! I work in healthcare and still got covid after receiving 2 Pfizer vaccines and a booster.

I felt depression on and off Fatigue Weight gain

I had no other side effects other than it caused me to gain extreme weight, very quickly. this has resulted in other side effects due to the weight gain, such as depression, lack of sleep, loss of appetite. i gained double my weight in the last 4 months after my vaccine.

I've been exposed several times to COVID-19 since my initial vaccination and then a booster. I've not come down with it and that means it's working. I know I've been exposed since I sat in meetings (maskless) with someone who came down with it a few days later. Also my iPhone has given me exposure warnings. The mRNA vaccine is amazing, and aside from being tired for a day after a dose, no side effects.

Phizer vaccine: Heel area swelled plus bottom of foot was painful and tender too. I couldn't walk, stand, or clutch my semi. Had to quit a great paying local trucking job because I was a truck driver and couldn't walk or do my job. Life sucked for about 6 months limping around in pain and just about losing everything. I had two no vaxer friends die. ??. I never got Covid so I can appreciate that the vaccine probably works.

I knew that when getting a vaccine, you will experience side effects but I honestly feel the same way when I had covid. I got the vaccine yesterday and its like my vision had a filter over it. Everything was more pigmented and vibrant. My arm is sore of course. I feel really drained and have low energy. I feel like I have covid all over again. Except I could breath out my nose just fine. I think this vaccine is going to do more help than harm though.

I’ve had all three. Still have not been infected with Covid (did have antibody test to confirm I’ve never been infected with it). I was nervous to take it even though I have had anthrax and other non civilian vaccines because I have had major immune health issues that have left me with fewer organs.. I had to receive the vaccine while medically supervised. I actually felt really great after the first two jabs with no side effects. I have gained some weight that I can’t seem to shake and that’s unusual for me, my period changed a bit, and I am having some minor kidney issues that started at the booster, but honestly? I’d still take the jab over having Covid. My grandfather works the Covid icu floors and has the entire pandemic. The number of deaths every shift from Covid was enough to show me the importance of having the vaccine. I also know that the large amounts of people I know whom have had all three pfizer shots have had no side effects or negative effects at all. While it could have inflamed some of my kidney issues and this issue is currently being researched, I’m not in any discomfort and the treatment is easy. There are a lot of negative reviews here and I think it’s important to weed through what is connected to vaccine and what is not before making your decision. As someone who is a young person with history of adverse reactions, blood clots, and severe health issues I fared well which I did not expect. I think they did well in the pfizer vaccine manufacturing. I do recommend it and vaccinated my oldest child who has also been great after taking it. This was a breeze compared to the anthrax vaccine in my opinion. Read More Read Less

I put off getting the vaccine but so not to feel forced by my job or lose job over, I started the process. After the first I had the feeling of a cold coming on an I just did what i would have done for any other. I over dressed to sweat out chance of fever and pumped fluids. The second dose my arm was sore enough for me to stay home from work one day. I have to repeatedly raise my arm at work and knew that would be a problem. Nothing serious. I'm not due for the booster till June. I feel fine with no issues to report. ThanksRead More Read Less

First shot April '21, 2nd in June' 21 and 3rd in Dec. 21. Got covid from a close contact in early Jan. 22 and yes.. I'm positive. But almost zero symptoms. Friend who gave me covid only has 2 shots and has no worse symptoms than a bad cold. Thank you pfizer! Cigarettes taste a little funny, but if this is the worst of it.. BRAVO!

I had both rounds of Pfizer vaccine in April 2021 - just got the booster 11/5/21. The first 2 shots had barely any side effects, just a sore arm but the booster knocked me out about 24 hours later. I had to leave work I was so exhausted and immediately took a 3 hour nap. Now over 6 weeks later I'm having pretty bad joint pain which is new for me. I'm 30 years old and pretty healthy/active. It started with my left wrist (injected in left arm) but now it's both wrists, elbows, shoulders, and knees. Still haven't gotten covid even though I've been exposed several times so I'm grateful for that. Just weird how I can hear my left wrist especially make a grinding noise and I've lost full range of motion. Stay safe and take care of yourselves <3Read More Read Less

This is a hard vaccine to rate, because I don't know how effective it is yet but I am hoping it gets me through omicron. NOTE - I am now 2 and half weeks passed the shot. I had the J&J for the vaccine, and Pfizer was my booster. People usually some to these forums when things go wrong, or just to complain so I will be detailed here: I tend to have allergies, so my immune system overreacts a lot; it is not like most other people's, and I always prepare for a worse reaction. In my experience, the side effects were much worse than J&J but I think Pfizer provides better protection. Day one: I felt fine the day of the shot, then woke up at night with aches, chills and fever. The worst was I day two, I felt like I had the flu. I was very weak and very, very exhausted; I had swollen lymphs under arm, mild headache, mild rash on chest. I slept most of the day and all through the next night. Day three, I felt better but was still achy and had a headache, body aches and swollen joints. I avoided pain reliever because I know it mutes the immune system, so I just opted to suffer through. By Day four or five I felt much better, maybe some mild fatigue. The next week, day seven: I got some diarrhea and upset stomach. Day eight: new muscle pain - I pulled one muscle, then a second muscle on day nine. I cannot say for sure this is from the vaccine, but it seemed weird. My feeling is that my immune system is still in fifth gear. Now, at day seventeen, I still have a few swollen muscles and joints. I am still happy I got the vaccine. I just wish they could refine it so people like me don't have such strong reactions. Maybe a lower dose will come in the future.Read More Read Less
