I had the IM vaccine. I felt very tired later that day and the next day and my arm was quite sore. A couple other coworkers also said they felt more tired than usual after getting it. A few people who had the nasal vaccine had a sore throat for a couple days. I haven't heard of any other effects at my hospital yet.

Got the injection 2 weeks ago. No problem. Was sore for 4 hours. The regular flu shot was worse.

I got the nasal dose. I had a little bit of a stuffy nose but that is it. My spouse and son both got it too and neither had any side effects.

I got vaccinated on Monday and the next day my arm was sore, I had a headache, I was more tired than usual and felt generally unwell. Today I feel much better aside from the slight soreness.

Had the shot, no soreness, no side effects whatsoever. Couldn't even tell I had it the next day.
