Anyone had a problem with neuropathy after receiving the vaccine?
I am 85 with small fiber neuropathy that is getting worse. My neurologist thought it would be a good idea for me to wait with the covid vaccine and not be first in line to see how it affected other people with neuropathy. Probably because it is a new technology. Has anyone had a problem with neuropathy after receiving the vaccine? If so, which vaccine?

I'll have to look into lupus thanks
I use cbd salve and it works great but doesn't last long
I tried Gabapentin but it made me drunk like a sailor LOL so I can't take that. Then they offered me another drug which is an antidepressant but I think it's just putting a Band-Aid on it I want to find the Cause. Plus this antidepressant has a very slow withdrawal to get off of it. That bothered me.
Magnesium Bisglycinate. 200 mg once per day
Thank you! I’m glad it worked for him. I’m going to try it. 🤞

Hi I agree on Gabapentin! Nortriptlyine which was prescribed to me - low dose 20 mg. has helped me so much!!! Getting off a low dose is not that difficult. The cause you may never know. I tried for two years every specialists in Philadelphia. The result is I have nerve damage and it is going to remain in my life. Everyone and every case is different. Make sure you go to a neurologist.
Best of luck
Are you close to a University Hospital? If so, it might be worth the trip to see a neurologist there.
No I'm not
I am also interested in what type of magnesium he took pls, and what dosage? I’m 160 lbs - estimated weight of your husband would also be helpful to determine my dosage. thankyou!
