NEUROPATHY PAIN GONE AFTER AN INITIAL EXACERBATION!
My husband has had severe peripheral neuropathy pain in both feet for more than fifteen years with little to no relief from any medication ... In fact week prior to getting the last vaccine he consented to considering medical marijuana tincture ...10 days ago he received the third shot of Pfizer vaccine - as with first 2 vaccinations he had no side effects ...however a few hours later he began to have intense neuropathy pain - at a level greatly higher than his normal pain intensity. HOWEVER after approximately 36 hours the pain was gone and most interestingly and significantly his NEUROPATHY PAIN HAS NOT RETURNED AT ALL. It has now been almost two weeks pain free, Any insights?

Hello @drp985 and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. What you've shared is fascinating and quite miraculous. To date, I haven't read of this from any other member so your husband is the first! Since we are just days into the third vaccine delivery, I wonder if we may see others reporting and sharing similar experiences?

Amazing.

That's so great! Would that were the case for each person's unique biology. The only way to know for sure is take your chances.
