I know Dave and people are telling me to have it but if you’d  seen the pictures of my feet that I had to send to the doctor you’d understand why I’m a bit hesitant ( I can send you them if you want, put you right off your tea )

My mate who I work with is going for his second one now so it’s 50/50 if he makes it to work tomorrow 

I was Ill  the day after my first then ok but after a few days the the rash and itching started and I felt terrible, I was in bed for 3 days, my skin still isn’t right, the doctor said they don’t think it will happen with the second but I’m not sure I want to risk it 

Just got back from hospital, had some cortisone injections in me shoulder and apparently it messes with your immune system so I can’t have me second jab for at least a month..

one way to put it off

Had them both not a twinge but 4 people at week had the "Stavros reaction " .

Sick as dogs ,rash the whole works guess it's luck of the draw .

But Dave is spot on covid killed my uncle, brother in law and a good friend so a no brainer decision for our family. 

[David.evans 5,323]

Sorry for your loss BC 

It was and still is a shit carry on , but there is light a the end of the tunnel for the fortunate that have not caught this terrible thing , 

IF YOU HAVE BOTH JABS. 
know what I mean stav , 

be brave mate , and get it done

and you SI

I have had both jabs , but I had Pfizer, nothing more than an arm ache. I can understand not wanting to go through all that itching crap though , sounds grim  . I don’t think I’d have been up for a second dose , but the doc did say that it was unlikely to cause a bad reaction the second time .

[David.evans 5,323]

I had the Astra one , both times it put me on my back for 3 days each time 

but I’m fine now I just think it has to be the worst of two evils but in the long term it must be the right thing to do 

 

[Stavross 13,718]

I know it’s the right thing to do and I can handle feeling unwell for a couple of days but I can’t go through the skin thing again 

 

sod it, I’ll show you what my feet looked like last week

[David.evans 5,323]

Kin ell stav

what did the doctor say about that 

that looks really bad mate 

[Stavross 13,718]

After I sent the pictures in they said “ come down now” all they could do is give me antibiotics and treat them like burns, I’ll be able to start using a steroid cream next week to start repairing the skin it’s cost me about 150 quid in prescriptions and bandages, which is not good for a northern lad

That's horrendous mate. I've not had the jabs and wont be either. My natural antibodies will just have to protect me. Which jab did you have.

[David.evans 5,323]

Fuc me stav I feel your pain mate 

don’t know what’s worse for you the bad foot , or the 150 for prescriptions 

as I know how tight you lot are

hope it heals soon for you

[Stavross 13,718]

Had the Astra jab, definitely the 150 quid out of pocket has caused me more pain

[shovel leaner 7,648]

That is horrendous.....,,..,,,,, £150 . 

[David.evans 5,323]

If it was me I just would have bought bigger wellies

sorry stav , I shouldn’t take the piss
