Hello, any other information on this? I have developed neuropathy in both feet and legs get very ‘heavy.’ I was in the USMC for 30 years and was very active, never had a problem. Got this vax when I turned 50 (almost seven years ago). I have had all bloodwork, MRI, nerve function test, etc. Dr.s have no idea what the cause is, just that I have it. I stumbled across this site while doing research and now realize this started shortly after the vax - never put 2 and 2 together until now. Is there any relief? Thank you all!

My case is the same . Idiopathic and now the neurologist has diagnosed CIDP after 9 months of tests both blood and nerve conducting and waiting for follow up appointments.
He has advised to get IVIG treatment to stop the progression as it’s an immune response.
However I went downhill from being active after the Shringvax injection…Also Covid vaccinations were in full swing 5 of them .
Nothing can be proved and I’ve read that Doctors don’t like making a fuss over vaccines as it’s a controversial subject.
It it what it is anyway . There are so many forms of Neuropathy..At first my diagnosis was small and long fibre Neuropathy now it’s Chronic Inflammatory Demyelating Polyneuropathy…5 days in hospital coming up next week then monthly for as long as it takes..
I hope your diagnosis has a better outcome…good luck.
