I'm halfway through the wait, and I can feel my arm is likely going to be sore.
Lovely... we have a consistent side effect. Whenever I manage to find an appointment I can look forward to this at the very least.
Now I'm not really noticing anything really bad in my arm. I'm about to head into the gym.
How long is the wait for possible side effects?
A several allergic reaction normally develops within 30 minutes(if at all). Mild to moderate side effects can be any time from when you get the shot to 3 days. Obviously, there are always outliers. I also felt a touch dizzy within the first 5 minutes, but I also battle with that frequently.

Every individual is different. It's a 50-50 shot.

Are these the first or second shot? I'm hearing the second shot is the one that causes problems.

It's the first shot for me. There can be reactions for either one.

First for me, and I'm not really noticing anything two hours after the fact, with a 50 minute workout in between.

Pain in shoulder dissipated completely overnight, two days after second Pfizer shot.

FWIW, the nurse in the post-shot observation room suggested doing the chicken dance.

A significant number of my friends who have had Pfizer say they feel very tired one day after the second shot. I felt fine the day of the second shot okay the next day and was pretty tired on the second day. I just scheduled a light work load and ended up cleaning up around my house. In both doses my arm was sore for a few days.

I'm on the joint operation committee for my county and we have not heard of any significant reactions here.

I'm definitely dragging a bit today and have very minor soreness in my arm. I highly recommend moving it as much as possible on the day of.

My intense pain of yesterday and Tuesday is finally 99% gone. I only notice a little twinge when extending my left arm. Not really dragging today, but I also have chronic fatigue so I am very familiar with the fatigued feeling. Other than mild stomach issues, I am not feeling too badly today (other than seeing the snow).

Twenty - four hours later, my wife is complaining of a sore arm. Mine doesn't even feel tender if I touch it.

Tell her I completely understand. Hope she feels better. It was hurting my arm to even lift it over my head. Like honestly, it felt someone sucker punched me or that I tore my rotator cuff.
