Hi Kathleen, I have SFN and had my 2nd Pfizer vaccine on 2/10. With the first I experienced a flare a wk. after which lasted a week, I also had a sore arm; this time no sore arm but a persistent new symptom plus a few transient ones appeared right after. Not sure if it is a result of or co-incidental this time, the new symptom is a very annoying continuous buzzing/tingling sensation on my right foot/toes , no numbness or pain but prevents sleep; hopefully temporary. I also dreaded the 2nd vac. but never considered not getting it. I Wish you well whatever you decide. Helen

Helen,
I too have the same burning tingling in hands and feet since my Pfizer vaccine. I’m trying to understand if others have had this same reaction. My physician put me on Gabapentin which has allowed me to sleep. Unfortunately it causes extreme grogginess for me during the day. I would like to know if others have found relief from other means.

Thank you for sharing your experience. Did the buzzing/tingling sensation resolve in time?
