I have had PN for 5 years following a serious viral illness. The symptoms have been stable and pain managed with assistance from 150 of Lyrica per day. On 12 May I got my first shot of the Pfizer vaccine. All good for 4 days then I began to experience intense burning in feet and hands (just like 5 years ago) and the skin on my feet is peeling (just like 5 years ago). Almost a week later it is still getting worse despite tripling the lyrica dose. My immune system has overreacted to the vaccine and is clearly now attacking my peripheral nerves again. Regretting that I got the vaccine (since my risk of contracting covid is very low) and am reluctant to get the second dose. This could just be related to my form of PN BUT there needs to be more investigation and advice to people with PN on the risks of taking the vaccine.
