My cardiologist and neurologist gave me the articles to read on the Moderna shot and neuropathy. Google it. This website does not allow attachments from the journal of medicine.

So what was their conclusion?

Multiple case series have demonstrated the emergence of small fiber neuropathy following acute coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infections. Further, one large case supports that the COVID-19 vaccine has been reported to result in small fiber neuropathy. We report a case of a patient with confirmed small fiber neuropathy post-COVID-19 vaccination with positive FGFR3 antibodies. Although the COVID-19 vaccination has helped protect many against the COVID-19 virus, the vaccine has been associated with some complications. There are published patient cases of COVID-19 infection and Pfizer and Moderna vaccine administration causing neurological conditions including Guillain-Barre syndrome, transverse myelitis, and small fiber neuropathy [1–8]. The mechanism underlying the development of small fiber neuropathy after COVID-19 vaccination is not known. Therefore, effective treatment remains unclear. It is suspected that small fiber neuropathy occurring after administration of the COVID-19 vaccine could be an immune-mediated process [4
