No, I developed peripheral neuropathy after a brain stroke, cauda equina syndrome and a spinal stroke. The vaccines made it worse temporarily, esp in the legs. They became really stiff and painful but after 6 weeks (last booster) it subsided. I'm curious to see what a half dose booster will do. Git it this morning. I prefer 6 weeks of pain to getting a bad case of Covid, that's for sure.

Though my neuropathy came on a few hours after my 4th booster, I did go ahead and get the Omicron booster and a flu shot 2 weeks ago. I did not notice any worsening symptoms. In fact, I was hoping the booster would decrease the symptoms, lol. I am high risk for covid , as is my husband and I would rather put up with the neuropathies then be on a ventilator for 6 months and die any way, which is what happened to a friend of mine in 2020, before there was a vaccine.
