Heel pain after COVID-19 vaccine

My initial neurological symptom from my Covid vaccine injury was muscle spasms in my toes at night. I did not have heel pain.
I eventually developed sensory and motor peripheral neuropathy. I am much better now at 19 months.
Not much is known in terms of treatment. Based on extensive research, what I would have pursued in the early stages of my injury would have been: alpha-lipoic acid (but I don't tolerate it), palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) to decrease neuroinflammation, 5% Lidocaine patches to control nerve pain at night, and only wearing shoes with heavily padded insoles. The latter step allowed the nerves in my feet to heal. The first neurological test that I failed was the tuning fork vibration test. You might ask your podiatrist to do that test, if they have not already. I also lost both ankle and knee deep reflexes. Also, if the symptoms continue, the doctors should check whether you are ANA positive. If you are positive, they should periodically check your ANA titer. Mine increased 4-fold at the height of my neurological symptoms. Many of us have evidence that the nerve damage is an autoimmune reaction triggered by the vaccine.

Hello, is there a particular brand of pea you'd recommend? I've seen some of the reviews on Amazon (good and bad), hesitant to purchase for the very reason. Thanks. Good that you are feeling better now at 19months, wishing you continued health.
