Oral Lichen Planus After Pfizer Covid Vaccines?

I received the pfizer covid vaccine and booster in 2022 by mandate because I am a nurse. About a month later I noticed a horrible flare up of lichen planus. Prior to this time I would have an occasional irritation that rapidly resolved with salt water rinses. The flare up in 2022 was like nothing I had ever had. Then I noticed a small tumor in the floor of my mouth which I had removed and found out it was keratinzing squamous cell carcinoma. After 2 surgeries and I was told it was stage 1. I had many issues including issues with my eye, and a sudden trip to rheumatology due to increased inflammation. Continued to have many oral issues and tried everything even seeing a periodontist (which was expensive) My dentist always told me I had beautiful teeth with maybe 1 or 2 cavities that required fillings up to that point. After the vaccine my cavity count went through the roof. This year I had another cancerous lesion removed in January and then another one in March. So because of all of this I have now started radiation and I am miserable. Ive lost about 50 pounds and have constant headaches and jaw pain. I wish I could sue for pain and suffering that I know I have due to the covid mandate for health care workers. Getting this vaccine ruined my life. Anyone experience anything like this and if so can you share if something worked for you the my doctor's are missing.

@palehaas I’m so sorry you’re going through this.

I also developed painful sores in my mouth after the mRNA BioNTech vaccine, along with full-body Stevens–Johnson syndrome. Months later, I developed ELISA-confirmed vascular antiphospholipid syndrome (APS)/lupus, including thrombosis, in addition to RA.
However, I also have genetic preconditions, including von Willebrand disease type 2 and Factor V Leiden.

I was told there is essentially no way to sue BioNTech unless you have several million dollars to fund a private lawsuit yourself.

I too got erosive oral lichen planus after the covid vaccine. Was in the hospital twice. Had to be fed via tube in my nose. I know this is autoimmune, but this combo has saved me. Valacyclovir and diflucan taken daily. I have been in remission for a year. Hope this helps.

@palehaas I was also a healthcare worker tho medical social worker for 23 years. I worked as a counselor for brain tumour patients, sarcoma, primary unknown and melanoma. Loved my career. 4 days after the first Pfizer shot I literally crashed. Systemic sudden onset illness from head to toe. Dizziness, vertigo, blurred vision. Headache, lost vision in my left eye for a few moments, difficulty walking and talking and crushing fatigue and loud tinnitus and a constant feeling of electricity going up and down my limbs. Dx with Vestibular migraine but that didn’t explain sudden onset rashes. Also sudden onset tachacardia and SOB. I literally went from running 10 km runs and working out regularly to needing support to walk or do anything. Second shot put me in an ambulance with severe heart cramping/pain, sob. Pain began in 2024 when a doctor took me off Amytriptaline and I lost 25 pounds overnight and pain in my joints and muscle, diffuse hair loss and daily crashes continues with PEM. Last year finally dx with confirmed Lupus SLE; Sjogren’s Disease and I had been confirmed dx MECFS. Which really was Long Vaccination syndrome because I had never had Covid when I got suddenly sick. I had mouth lesions on my palate and lips but I think that was the lupus. My life has also been ruined and I have suffered daily. Unfortunately the medical community has added to my suffering because of their gaslighting and avoidance to hold the obvious Pfizer mRNA vaccine accountable. I have had only two specialists advocate for me to document the clear as day obvious. My healthy self one day and sudden onset of systemic nervous system, immune system failure/illness. I also wish I could sue. Our Canadian government was firing doctors who mentioned vaccine on patients charts. Conflict of interest interest big time. The pressure campaign came from all sides. Media, health authorities, medical communities and government. We couldn’t travel, we couldn’t go into a restaurant we couldn’t do anything. We also didn’t give informed consent because we weren’t told we could get sick from them. Didn’t know we could get autoimmune disease, Cancers, heart conditions and more debilitating diseases. I am sorry for your suffering and stress. This isn’t right. We should be compensated for our loss of health, quality of life and our financial losses. We need to call this out and help others who are suffering and don’t have a voice or platform to get their stories out !!
