@johnbishop i think your advice is spot on. I know my neuropathy has a mind of its own, but felt I had worse feelings after my first 2 shots (they subsided) I had no problem at all with my booster. I talked to my neurologist about reporting it through VAERS and he advised against it - told me we couldn’t “prove” it. In hindsight I’m disappointed that I didn’t report it. How else are they going to learn if they don’t start seeing trends in some sort of database that doesn’t exist with any single doctor? Not just for vaccines, but for a lot of medical mysteries most of us are dealing with? In the end, with the vaccine, I can so far I feel safer having had it, assuming I’m past any adverse reaction I may have had.
Hi John, I live in Belgium and have reported it to a Belgian institution. Do you think it makes sense to also mention it at VAERS?
