Yes, the 2nd dose can be a bit rough, if you become feverish, sore ect, it simply means the vaccine is doing exactly as it should by causing an immune response.

I will take a couple days of feeling miserable. It's better than being in hospital on airway assist.
This is the way I'm looking at it.

My sister got her second shot last week. She had a mild headache, mild fever (99F) with chills and sore arm. She said it lasted about 24 hours and she felt much better after that. She didn't feel the need to take Tylenol after the second shot despite the fact that her symptoms were worse than those from her first shot.
