COVID vaccines and neuropathy

Reading through all the posts on the covid vaccine and subsequent neuropathies I am wondering:
1) Have you found that over time, weeks and months post vaccination, your symptoms diminish? Or do they intensify?

2) Have you found anything that actually eased the neuropathies....supplements, medications?

It seems most people are going through extensive testing, the majority of which is coming back normal. I myself am still waiting to get into my gp so that I can get a referral to a neurologist. I am so hesitant to tell her that these symptoms started a few hours after my fourth mRNA vaccine. It just makes you sound like a crazy person. And I am totally pro vaccine and even am a vaccinator for public health.
Thanks all.

The good news is that most patients on Neuro V Long-Haulers are reporting improvement about 9 months after vaccination. But most don't seem to have recovered completely. I still have numbness, nerve pain, and tire easily.
What helps me the most is rest and only light exercise. Most of the adverse reactions seem to be immune-mediated. Rest helps to suppress an overreactive immune system. I had an autoimmune response to the vaccine.
I would definitely share your information with your neurologist. The neurologists are seeing many patients like us Even if yours is skeptical, she should document the association in time in your chart.
