Love the metaphorical spin! Like you, some of my symptoms flared after the shots, they’ve reduced some. Although the numbness in my extremities continues to spread. My neurologist recognized my symptoms as a Sjogren’s flare. I’m glad you’re doctors recognized yours as a flare. I’m unfortunately reluctant to get a booster because
of this.

My symptoms are finally all flared down. Ironically, just as they are urging us all to get boosters.
I told my husband maybe I will be able to tell when it is booster time by my neuropathy. 🙂
I also feel like taking a hard pass on getting a booster. I simply do not know what to do. I wrote the Immune Deficiency Foundation to tell them that the flare had passed and while I was at it I sent them the links someone posted above. They sent me two more in return, so we are not alone, my friend. We are not alone.
All that said, the risk of the virus - or horrors, long COVID - are very real. It really is a dilemma.
Good luck to you.
