I understand. Most of us do. It is very sad. No words will help.

You made me think, I have neuropathy and I had a shingles vaccination about 10 years. I know the vaccination was first, I can't remember how long after that my neuropathy started. It began in my feet, then my legs and now in my hands. I' m not diabetic, don't smoke, not a big drinker, have been on aa heart healthy diet 40 years and a low carb diet 50 years. My dad died at 65 from heart disease and my wife is a diabetic, low carb has been a natural part of my diet since we married 50 years ago.

I received my first vaccination three years ago. Even before it was time to get the second dose (which I didn't get), I was seeking help for my numb feet. After lots of blood work, MRI's and multiple doctors only finding low vitamin d and low testosterone, a neurologist said it was likely tied to the vaccine, when I ask if that was his diagnosis he laughed and asked if I was crazy, he wanted to keep his practice. My faith in the medical world has been destroyed. Big pharma controls everything, and I question if any doctors can do better than Web MD. I'm now living in in extreme pain or doped up to the point of forgetting my address. Disappointment doesn't describe what I feel.
