COVID vaccines and neuropathy

I hope everyone here who has had their neuropathy flared from the vaccine is reporting to vaers. I have reported to both vaers and Pfizer. After two months from the first shot of the vaccine the burning has just staring to decreased a little bit I’m hoping that it continues to do so.
The muscle pain though has increased.So far the blood test I took didn’t explain my burning( my doctor’s words) one important test still pending. Hope they can figure out what’s going on. Very worried

Curious what you ended up doing about your second shot and your outcome if you did get it.

my life has not been the same - developed erythromelalgia - still waiting for neurology appointment

Sorry for everything you are dealing with. Still curious to know if you got your second Pfizer or did you do J&J. Hopefully you didn’t get increased pain from it. Feel well soon!

I am a 59 year old female who has never had symptoms of neuropathy until about 3 days after receiving my first Pfizer vaccine, last December. I did go ahead with the the 2nd shot as scheduled, on the advice of 2 docs. I have had every neuro work up there is, with the exception of a LP, to try to figure out a reason for this sudden onset neuropathy (mostly lower extremity) but nothing makes sense except that it is vaccine related. I do have degenerative disc disease and recent MRI and EMG confirmed that I have radiculopathy (pinched nerves) at S1. It’s reasonable that some of my lower extremity symptoms could be caused by this, but not likely since they literally appeared overnight. My neurologist now hypothesizes the vaccine may have exacerbated the pinched nerves. All I know is that my life hasn’t been the same since I got the first shot. It is bearable and I’m able to do everything that I want and need to do, but I do live with the fear of things getting worse. I have searched the internet regularly for months and feel like I am starting to see more references to neuro problems after vaccine. I just felt this group might be a good place to document what I am going through. I have not yet reported this as an official vaccine reaction because I’ve had so many differing opinions, and many other reasons, but I do plan to.

How are you doing now? I’m 52 and had same experience. I’m a dermatologist and my symptoms appear to be small fiber neuropathy. Extensive testing negative. Mine is worsening since began 4 days after my 2nd Pfizer. Shaky legs and losing temperature and pin prick sensation hands and feet. Fatigue. Muscles overly tired. If also lost some weight over last 3 months for no apparent reason. Eyes now becoming dry and not sweating on hands. There has been a case report of a 57yo female. That doc said he’s had multiple other physicians contact him about similar cases.

I was wondering if you have any issues with neuropathy with your first shot?

I had a pretty bad case of COVID (although no hospitalization) a year ago. Diagnosed Small Fiber Neuropathy flared up big time while I was sick for 5 weeks. Had 1st Pfizer shot this past Sunday. 19 hours after 1st shot, felt like mac truck hit me from behind and ran over me - soon followed with 101 fever, severe body aches, severe fatigue, light headedness, and SFN burning flare - it is now 46 hours later- no fever, some body/joint aches, slight headache but significant SFN burning! Scared to get 2nd shot and scared that SFN will be permanently worse.
