Hello @ninette. I am so sorry to hear of your spinal stroke and resulting neuropathy. Because you are interested in connecting with members on the topic of covid vaccines, you will notice that I have moved your post into an existing discussion on this topic which you can find here:

I am not sure if you are aware of this, however, the monovalent Moderna covid booster was actually designed as half doses in comparison to a full dose Pfizer. Perhaps the half dose of the bivalent booster is the same?

Dear Amanda, thank you for this! I'm aware of the group but didn't see how I could put my question there without hopping on to somebody else's text. And yes I'm aware of the half dose thing of Moderna (a bottle contains double the amount of mrna as Pfizer) and after the side effects got worse and lasted longer after every shot I decided that either I would take half a dose, or not at all. Well, my doctor wouldn't have the latter, so tomorrow a nurse will pass by my place for the booster shot. Let's hope it gets a bit better this time.
