Hi all, so I had my first dose az vaccine around 15 weeks ago and apart from muscle inflammation for around 2 to 3 weeks I was okay with it generally.
I have my 2nd dose today and have read the risk of clotting is far less in the 2nd dose, although I have also read that clotting may be due to incorrect vaccination procedure and nurses not aspirating (pulling back on plunger to see if its in a blood vessel) that can cause these clots.
I'm going to ask the nurse if they can aspirate but it's unlikely they will change the method they have been using.
I just need reassurance to go get this 2nd jab..I have already delayed it enough and cancelled my original 2nd jab appointment! Thanks!
