My son decided to start the Gabapentin 300 mg tablet on 10/3. New symptom of vibration feeling in the right knee. I read up on celiac disease and sensitivity to gluten. This sensitivity may be a cause of the peripheral neuropathy. Starting today, have begun to remove all gluten. The next neurologist appt is on 10/17. I hope my son responds well to the dietary changes and finds relief from the PN symptoms.

Hi...I am 61 years old and have been an avid walker. Within days of receiving my second Pfizer I started having trouble with my normal walking routine. I basically lost all feeling in my thighs and my feet were numb. I had to will my legs to get me home. They didn't hurt, they were just like two stiff logs. I also developed odd twitching and electrical shock feelings in arms and legs. I am seeing a Physical Medicine/Rehab doctor who did EMG/Nerve Conduction studies and diagnosed me with Peripheral Sensory Polyneuropathy of unknown cause. I had no previous issues before the second vaccine. I am slowly recovering and have regained the strength in my legs and some sensation in my toes. It was a scary event for me. At 61 a stroke was considered, but tests ruled it out. I have been going for physiotherapy which has help a lot. I take Gabapentin as well. I am making small gains very slowly and have to remind myself daily of this. I hate being slowed down to a crawl when I was so very active..I walked hours daily with dogs. The doctors have not come right out and said that it was the vaccine that caused my sudden symptoms. I found this forum and it has really helped knowing that I am not alone,
I hope that anyone that is experiencing similar symptoms receives the care that I have. It has been a lot of work and worry but I feel positive that this too shall pass. Adrienne...from Canada
