Anyone had a problem with neuropathy after receiving the vaccine?
I am 85 with small fiber neuropathy that is getting worse. My neurologist thought it would be a good idea for me to wait with the covid vaccine and not be first in line to see how it affected other people with neuropathy. Probably because it is a new technology. Has anyone had a problem with neuropathy after receiving the vaccine? If so, which vaccine?

Your situation is terrible! I'm so sorry this happened to you. There are many reports of similar vaccine-related internal vibration issues among the members of the Facebook group Neuro V Long-Haulers. I encourage you to join. Some are able to document an autoimmune, inflammatory response by sending a blood sample to CellTrend lab in Germany. They accept international shipments and provide instructions on their website. I'm hoping such documentation will help you to keep your job.

3 ReactionsThank you for the kind words and the information. I will check it out.
I had very similar symptoms after the Moderna vaccine and it was a challenge to finally receive a diagnosis. It took over a year and many providers before I received
a diagnosis and started treatment. Stay strong and continue to read, ask questions and continue seeing providers until you are satisfied. The vaccine is still fairly new and many providers are not familiar with all the side effects that have been seen.

1 ReactionMay I ask what your diagnosis was?
I have had the same issues on a smaller scale after receiving the Pfizer two dose. I’m in the process of being evaluated and have first appointment with Mayo Internal Medicine in Feb.

1 ReactionYes I have. And it didn’t exist before the two dose Pfizer. How are you doing today? I’m 53.
Yes, medicated induced lupus that led to CIDP.
Thank you for sharing. How are you doing now?
