COVID vaccines and neuropathy

Hi I feel the same as you. I began having neuropathy symptoms ( burning, tingling, cold/hot sensations) the day after the first Pfizer shot. Tingling for a few days, then burning and other sensations. I went to two doctors - primary care and an oncologist that I see. Both expressed surprise at my symptoms but thought it might be related to an auto immune condition. I, too, have postponed the 2nd shot once and plan to postpone it again. As much as I want to get the vaccine over with, I can't see adding more of this vaccine to my body just now - not when, in my opinion, my immune system is still apparently over reacting. I wish you the very best with your decision - it is so difficult when we have very little, if any, data to guide us.

Hi. My symptoms built up very slowly. I'm still having burning in the face thighs ,moving slowly down the legs. I also have some needles here and there and very little hitching.. My neurologist thinks I should get the second shot. I'm not convinced. I did take an antibody test ,hoping that would help me make up my mind about the second shot. The results should be in today. Had I known. this was going to happen to me I would have one for the J& J vaccine . Tomorrow is my last chance for the second shot. Scared and confused.

I would feel the same way. They need to investigate more if the shot makes Neuropathy worse. . I know I am afraid to take it bc I live in pain all the time & don't need any more pain. I wish you the best.
