Thanks for the info. I received my second Pfizer vaccine on 12 Apr and the onset of paresthesia approx 8 weeks after the second vax.

Sorry for everyone who is having the same symptoms I have. Mine happened a month or so after the second shot of the Pfizer vaccine. Mine started in my feet, progressed to my legs, then hands, then arms. Just diagnosed as having small fiber neuropathy. NEVER had it before. Has anyone had a partial or complete reversal of their neuropathy? Please respond on this forum or privately. Thank you so much.

I'm sorry to hear you are feeling these symptoms again after so long.
Side effects are reported after the Covid vaccines, and parasthesia is one of them - usually affecting the injected arm, but also other areas more rarely. However, the usual onset is within 7 days of receiving the vaccine, and nearly all symptoms disappear within 30 days.
Since it took a very long time for you symptoms to appear after the injection, you should consider consulting with your PCP or neurologist.
While we hear about Covid vaccine side effects everywhere, everyday, it is possible that it could be a coincidence and not a reaction to the injection.
