You sound like me! I do not have the tremors (yet) but have had EBV since a bad case of mono as a teen. I also have SFN confirmed via skin punch biopsy. The Pfizer COVID vaccines caused pain at base of skull and dizziness both vaccine #1 and #2. After the 2nd shot, I started to get chest pain and difficulty breathing. I have cardiolipid autoantibodies for Antiphospholipid Syndrome, confirmed Hashimoto’s thyroiditis/hypothyroid, recently diagnosed via HIDA scan with biliary dyskinesia (gallbladder ejecting 7% bile when minimum should be 35-40%), etc. etc. I had a Holter monitor due to heart palpitations and have confirmed moderate sleep apnea. My symptoms have gotten worse since having the COVID vaccines in 2021 and virus in 2022 (I am 54 now). My mom had lupus/RA/Hashimoto’s and heart disease/diabetes, etc. Like you, I would like to have updated EMGs/nerve conduction testing and spinal tap to check for CIDP. I am extremely weak in my arms, hips and legs and fatigued. I also deal with cervical and lumbar spinal stenosis/degenerative disc disease pain. My biggest concerns are my heart/lungs and blood/oxygen flow and how to reduce inflammation/calm my immune system from attacking itself and my peripheral/sensory/autonomic nervous system. Good luck getting answers. I am now not able to work due to my declining physical and mental health and I have a 14 year old son I need to support as a single parent with no family/support system.
