I'm sad to read that there are so many others like me that are having health problems following the mRNA vaccines. I'm shocked that some of you actually had a doctor admit that the mRNA vaccines could the cause of our woes. The ones that I've seen defend that the mRNA vaccines are safe and effective like their medical licenses depend on it... and I've seen a lot of doctors. The only reason why I even learned of LPCVS was from an article that was forwarded to me on a study being done by Yale New Haven Hospital.

My journey down the yellow brick road of the happiness of LPCVS started in May of 2021. I was active-duty armed forces with 18 years under my belt when the order came from the top that all personnel would be vaccinated or discharged if they refused. I wasn't about to risk my pension and decided to roll the dice. Unfortunately, lady luck wasn't on my side.

I got the Pfizer vaccine, and every day for the past three years has been an exercise in misery. I suffer from horrible gas, abdominal bloating (causing chest pain, and heart attack symptoms), brain fog, dizzy spells, changes in eyesight, various body parts going numb or weak, chronic diarrhea and a burning smell only in my right nostril.

My beloved service didn't do me any favors or even bump me up to the front of the line. Nope, I had to wait months for the backlog of COVID Lockdown appointments to clear. The first three gastro doctors took one look at me and sent me directly to the Emergency Room. Where the ER doctors told me that I wasn't going to die within the next 24 hours due to bad gas... and told me to follow up with my PCM. Rinse, wash and repeat. I think my personal favorite was one chucklehead at medical that told me not to worry because the VA was going to take care of me. It only took 18 months for the VA to give me my rating and permission to use VA medical care.

Over the last three years, I've seen 7 different doctors... and been shot up with so much radiation that I should have developed superpowers. Yeah, I was quite disappointed on that one. Marvel Studios lied to us.

The common diagnosis that I've been getting is severe "functional" dyspepsia. I have issue with the functional part as when I'm in the throes of an epic attack I am anything but functional. The attacks happen 24 hours a day every day... the only difference being the severity. I currently work from home as a contractor, so I have a very flexible schedule... but I'm forced to work around my severe bouts and work really weird hours. I no longer can drive long distances because losing eye focus or sudden onset of dizziness isn't a good thing at 60 mph. I also don't like to travel far from my house for any longer than 10 minutes because I get anxious about when my severe symptoms will come back.

I'm currently working with the VA because I don't trust the Military Treatment Facilities that I'm forced into as a retiree... and if one more direct commission military doctor fresh out of school tries to tell me that the COVID vaccine can't do what I'm suffering from... let's just say that they might get a severe dressing down from this salty retired service member.

I've tried to bring up LPCVS with my doctors but the majority of them are either ignorant of the ongoing studies or look at me with an expression of: "Which one of us in this room is the doctor?" Other than the fact that some of y'all must have some doctors that not only care, but also listen... has anyone successfully turned one of these LPCVS deniers and if so, how did you do it? Did you have compromising pictures? Was Uncle Guido in the room with his wiffleball bat of persuasion? If yes, is Uncle Guido available for hire?

Thanks,
