      I’ve been offered this vaccine for the past four or five years but never taken it. Has anyone had it and if so any side effects?

      The only person who got all his work done by Friday was Robinson Crusoe.
      Anything i post over three lines long please assume it is an article lol.

        Yes @Brydo I have had the Pneumococcal vaccine. It was at least 6 0r 7 years ago. For personally, I have not had any side effects after the injection or there after.

        You might find this useful to read Brydo.  https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/vaccinations/pneumococcal-vaccination/

        Side effects of the pneumococcal vaccine
        Like most vaccines, the childhood and adult versions of the pneumococcal vaccine can sometimes cause mild side effects.

        These include:

        a slightly raised temperature
        redness where the injection was given
        hardness or swelling where the injection was given
        There are no serious side effects listed for either the childhood or adult versions of the vaccine, apart from an extremely rare risk of a severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis).

        In MHO Its worth having Brydo.
