COVID vaccines and neuropathy

I was diagnosed with neuropathy after my first Moderna booster shot. My neurologist had seen several other patients presenting similar side effects from the vaccine. I had an extremely robust reaction to the first shot. A week after the shot I had a rash that covered almost the whole front of my upper arm. My neurologist has advised against another booster, not wanting to tempt fate, as my neuropathy is greatly improved at this point. Is there any safe optional vaccine or another alternative for me to take to try to stay protected from Covid?

Have u taken Evusheld injection as an alternative? I had reaction similar to yours from Covid vaccine but haven’t noticed any people with neurological reactions to COVID vaccine that have taken Evusheld.
