I am sorry to see that you also had negative experience with the covid-19 vaccine. I too had severe neurological pain, extreme cold feeling all along left side, numbness, burning, low back pain. I was barely able to walk 4 days after 1st Moderna shot. I too reported my experience to VAERS. After 18 days better but still not same as before vaccine. Soon due for second shot. Very uncertain what to do. Any information would be useful. Thank you,

Have you talked to your dr. to see if he thinks the shot causes people with Neuropathy more side effects & what you should do.
I have it in my feet & legs real bad & take Gabapentin & Cymbalta & I am afraid of the vaccine bc of the side effects.
Please keep me posted on hoe your doing. Hope you feel better.

I too had a significant increase in neuropathy symptoms, plus sore muscles/joints following the vaccine, which I reported in this discussion. These leveled off, but did not decrease. On the same day as the first shot, my doctor lowered my Tacrolimus, which is believed to initially had caused my symptoms, and increased my Mycophenolate. So, being uncertain what to do and if it was the vaccine or change in medication, I did go ahead and get the second vaccine shot on March 3. My symptoms again increased, although not as much. Nor have they decreased. I reported the reaction to VAERS. I also sent an inquiry to the Mayo Vaccine Research Group - https://www.mayo.edu/research/labs/vaccine-research-group/contact

Have others contacted the Research Group?
