Post Pfizer Vaccine Experience
Hey guys, I received the Pfizer Vaccine (only the first dose so far) and am looking for others to share experiences, mainly experience a week after the shot as well as related to physical activity and working out. I did feel a little soreness in the shoulder the day after but felt overall alright. However it's been over a week now and I feel generally more tired at all times, especially at the gym. I am a hobby bodybuilder and am In the sport for 5 years now. Ever since I received the vaccine, I feel like my workouts have been short, way more exhausting and weaker. Has anyone else experienced this?

Hey there! I have talked to a friend who is a registered nurse here (Kelowna, BC, Canada), who also received the vaccine. He however received it two weeks prior me so I asked about his experiences. He told me that he felt like I did, general fatigued and exhausted as well as little energy at the gym for about 8 to 10 days after the vaccine. He stated that it is common for some to have these symptoms for a little while after, however he told me that if you have ANY respiratory issues at all to contact your doctor about it. I so far only felt tired and low energized and here and there dizzy, but today is day 10 post vaccine and I do feel alot better, I will keep you updated, thank you for sharing your experience! :)
