covid vaccine booster
Anyone received the vaccine booster yet? Any changes with there skin after? Last time I got really itchy in my second dose.
No booster yet, my skin is flaring quite intensely at present so I will hold off for now.
, I had my booster shot a couple of days ago. My first two were Pfizer, but the third was Moderna, recommended as I’m 75. If I was under 75, I would have had Pfizer again. Friends have told me they had more reaction after Moderna, but surprisingly, I had no reaction after any of them.

I wanted to ask if I would have had a third Pfizer if I had come a week earlier before my birthday. My daughter is also 51 and was given 2 doses of Moderna. It will be interesting to see what they recommend when she gets hers in a few weeks. Cora Lyn, AtopicDermatitis.net Team Member 
it's such a constantly evolving science. How researchers work to keep up with such a rapidly mutating virus amazes me. All the variables - such as specific vaccine formulation (brand), age of patient, potential patient comorbities -make for extra challenges and puzzling factors that perhaps only time and more doses in arms will answer. In the meantime, I'm grateful to have received 3 doses.
Daisy, I got dose #3 of Pfizer a couple months ago. Didn't notice any particular reactions re. my skin after any of the shots. All doses were pretty uneventful for me side effect-wise. Hope you tolerate number three ok if you get it.
