I'm hoping to find other people who had an allergic reaction to the mRNA vaccines that the experts are saying is from PEG. PEG is polyethylene glycol and it's in so many products! I have been searching through ingredient listings and I'm shocked at how much stuff it is in like food, lotions, shampoos, deodorant, etc... I've gone through and purged a bunch of stuff. I joined a couple groups on Facebook and they've helped give some information on products to avoid.

PEG allergy after Vaccine

Well I’m taking my second shot of the Pfizer–BioNTech vaccine on Friday so I let you know how I go
This is the one that’s suppose to take you down apparently since the response is stronger.

Hope you do well! I had tightness in the neck, tingling lips, tingling tongue and then my tongue swelled so I couldn't talk. I didn't have the flu like symptoms that other people had though which was weird. I went hiking the next day with no problems. No fever, no fatigue and my antihistamines helped with the allergy problems. The only thing is now my allergies are out of control.
I had a lump under my arm pit after my first shot so I’m hoping the second shot won’t be worse but we see how I go
I hope your allergies do improve though because that would be really annoying.

How did you do with your 2nd shot? Any reactions?
Now that I now I have PEG allergy, I'm not sure if it's easier for me or worse. I mean, I KNOW I have the allergy now but now I have to do more work to try to read every label everywhere for everything. The FDA really needs to investigate and not say that PEG is perfectly safe.
Most definitely!!
My limp nodes were up and not to mention I did have the chills and felt very tired, Not to mention couldn’t sleep due to a very sore arm that felt like it was sliced.
But besides that I still think it’s better then getting extremely sick from covid, and I really hope things improve for you soon
I got sick for a day, but that's about all I experienced. Though I've heard the odd story here and there about what people experienced.
Same here, I had 1 rough night and the following day was not the best but a little better, But of course everyone reacts differently to the vaccine.,
yep, like people who didn't feel a thing. Lucky bunch.
Very lucky, I got the chills twice in the 24 hours it was bad but go through it.
