Jab #2 yesterday morning. Astral Zenophobe.
Same as Jab #1 All good, no probs atall.
Both times, though, I've had a restless nights sleep and been up for a few hours in the middle of the night.

Maybe this was the jab, but more likely just my brain thinking that I might have side effects and waiting for them to occur.

Anyone know about these antibody tests issued by Imperial College?

Three tests are C (Control), G (long term IgG antibodies) and M (short term IgM antibodies).
I've got a clear line against C, a faint impression against G, and nothing at all against M.

Was hoping for a more emphatic sign of antibodies given that my first AZ jab was a good 8 weeks ago!

I'll keep wearing the masks for now.

Had the second BioNtech jab last weekend. No issues at all.

I’m still waiting on my ‘Brave Boy’ sticker and lollipop. ^_^
Reminds me of when I was scraped off the road and taken to hospital with multiple injuries, my bike being picked up in 2 pieces and the driver of the car subsequently prosecuted and banned. When I got out of hospital I was in the back yard talking to my neighbours. The little lad asked, after being told of my injuries, "did you cry?" Aye, I reckon I did, lad. More than once.

Just been invited to bring second dose appointment forward. So now booked in to second jab on Monday morning. Which is 10 days earlier than first scheduled. I’m in the 50-59 age cohort.

If you booked via the website, you can cancel and book an earlier date. I'm younger and had my 2nd earlier today.

Not sure if that option works for appts arranged via gp. Worth a try maybe.
