    I had my 2nd dose of the Pfizer vaccine two weeks ago tomorrow. I’ve had a bad taste in my mouth since then. Just wondering if this happened to anyone else and how long did it last…

    This is not funny at all in my opinion. It’s been a long time for me and my taste is ruined. I didn’t think that a vaccine would actually destroy my taste! Suppose I was a chef in a restaurant, my career would be ruined! This is not funny.

    I'd say your GP is the best port of call Noddy if you're worried. I can only speak for the 1st Pfizer dose and no issues with taste but I was a bit out of it 2 days after the jab. Felt like a cold basically and brain was foggy. No problems on day 3 though.

    It’s gone now but it lasted for 2 weeks. Someone told me I was having covid symptoms due to the vaccine. Thank god it all seems to be back to normal now taste wise anyway…

    Strange taste is called dysgeusia. It can occur in Covid infection (among other causes) but is also reported after vaccination.

    I had a pain in my jabbed arm for about 6 weeks after the jab. Someone suggested it might have been the needle hitting and damaging a nerve. It seriously felt bruised for the longest.

    I seem to have developed tinnitus since I got my pfizer booster.

    And yes, not funny.

    Absolutely horrible.

    Almost one month and no change, several reports online of this also.

    In physics we trust....
