I have sensory and motor nerve damage after the Covid vaccine x 2 that is slowly improving. I control the nerve pain in my feet at night with 5% lidocaine patches prescribed by a podiatrist. To promote absorption of the lidocaine, I place a patch on the top of my foot where the skin is thinner. The patches allow me to avoid the systemic exposure to nerve pain medications and the side effects. Besides, the medications did not control the nerve pain.
Hi There,
I too have the exact symptoms you describe after my Pfizer vaccine around two years ago. My symptoms slowly get worse and no doctor can explain why? Wondering if you have found anything as yet that helps this debilitating condition? Kind regards Martin
I am sorry for your pain. I was told that this could be viral and testing was not always accurate. It is all so frustrating. The doctor just switched me from Gabapentin to Lyrica starting tomorrow. The Gabapentin was working to subdue the symptoms but not prevent them completely. Has anyone had successful symptom management with Lyrica?
