Hello @mrspowerssd and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I am glad you were able to find someone else who you are able to relate to in @mawagner13. It is certainly difficult to navigate any healthcare dilemma when you don't feel understood or heard so I do hope you will find the support you are looking for here with others!
I know there are several others with Neuropathy on Connect who have struggled a great deal with their decision to get the vaccine and weigh the risk of potential side-effects. Members like @artscaping @johnbishop @avmcbellar and @tigereye have all been active in this discussion and feel may have varying views that they would be willing to share.
Have you signed up for the vaccine yet or just noticed more availability in your area?

Good evening @mrspowerssd, If.I had read about all of the vaccine reactions before getting the vaccine, I think I would also have been unnerved and anxious. Fortunately, I was vaccinated early before any of the reactions were made public, However, I had no effects from the second injection. I was almost worried that I got a placebo instead of the vaccine....because it went so smoothly without any discomfort. Please be safe and protected.
