COVID vaccines and neuropathy

A while back (10+ years) I was working with a neurologist to try and figure out what to do about numbing hands and feet. He determined it was the beginning of neuropathy but was unable to find any specific cause, so I've just been living with it, and so far, so good. One of the places I work won't take the doctor's confirmation of the study for a medical exemption to a COVID shot (and I had COVID early in 2020) and I'm worried.

The stories you're all telling and what I've read has me worried about what a shot might do to my condition that so far, is only a minor inconvenience. My doctor has retired, but another in the office thinks that any reaction of any kind is worth it, because COVID is a killer. I pointed out that I had it and didn't die...

In any case, I'm hoping to find a doctor who can request and review the tests that were done back then and give me some accurate (not political) opinion as to whether this is safe, or help me support an exemption. How would I go about finding an expert who is knowledgeable with both COVID shots and neurological conditions, and who will consider my best interests over what's politically correct?

I’m sorry I can’t help you with this but if you find an answer, I hope you’ll share it with us. Hopefully, someone will have an answer for you. God bless.

I got the J & J for my booster shot last month and had no increase of pain in my neuropathy. I had a big increase in pain for 3 months with the Pfizer one so that’s why I switched to the J&J. It has different ingredients than Pfizer and Moderna.
