I had a similar experience with the Pfizer vaccine. I won't be getting the booster. My blood work indicates an immune-mediated peripheral neuropathy. The good news is that the symptoms improved substantially about 9 months after the last vaccine. There is a Facebook group for vaccine-injured people called Neuro V Long-Haulers. Everyone there reports about a 9 month timeline for substantial improvement of the peripheral neuropathy symptoms. You could receive advice and support by joining that group. I suggest asking the neurologist to check your autoimmune antibody titer and also your alpha-2-globulin levels. (These are not routinely measured.) My titer increased but then increased again substantially about 8 months after the vaccine. I discovered in the earlier months, that I could control the pain by avoiding sitting completely. Apparently, my sciatic nerve and/or spinal chord was inflamed. My tolerance for sitting is now much improved.
