Anyone had a problem with neuropathy after receiving the vaccine?

Do anyone know about Mamma Bears cream for neuropathy.

This is the first time I’ve posted and have read comments from many with PN. I’ve been diagnosed with idiopathic peripheral neuropathy. The diagnosis was based on results of EMG. I’ve had epidural steroid injections twice to no avail. It started with tingling of feet and has moved to lower legs effecting muscles. I am in pain most of the time and find that I can no longer exercise or take long walks as before. I tried Gabapentin but did not like the side effects so use Aleve sparingly. I have always been quite active and am trying to determine the cause of the neuropathy. My primary care doctor is of the opinion (after review of a complete blood panel and urinalysis and his own testing) that the cause of my leg problems may not be neuropathy connected. He is sending me to see an orthopedic. I have a future appointment with a neurologist also. As for Covid, I had it early in 2021 and had Mono-Clonal antibody treatment. The neurology surfaced in early 2022 and has been present throughout 2022 during which time my condition has worsened. Has anyone been to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester? I am in NC but was a patient at Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville for several years. If no resolution to the cause and/or treatment is determined, I am wondering which Mayo Clinic location would be a better choice. I have read that the Mayo in Rochester specializes in Neurology, although the Jacksonville location would be closer. Any ideas on treatment options that alleviate symptoms would be helpful.

Your story sounds very similar to mine. Three years ago, coincidentally or not following the first Covid injection symptoms started. In my feet, and now three years later going up my legs. Discomfort never goes away. Gets worse in the afternoon. Have you had an MRI? After two EMG tests they ruled out neuropathy and call this idiopathic what a silly word. I live near Boston so have no info on the South. The one treatment that alleviates my pain are my special socks with get inserts that I keep in the freezer. They are very soft material and the cold feels good. I got them on Amazon. I'm also new to Connect but I'm finding comfort in sharing new information. Good luck to you.

AFTER A LOT OF BLOOD WORK AND A DOCTOR CLOSLY LISTENING TO MY PROBLEMS, I HAVE LUPUS WHICH DAMAGED MY NERVES.

I don’t know about the flu vaccine but I believe that the maderna vaccine brought on my trigeminal neuralgia.

HAS ANYONE EXPERIENCED NEUROPATHY AND NERVE PAIN FROM HEAD TO TOE FROM THE VACCINE AND/OR COVID?

I have had all the vaccine updates, all from Moderna, and have not noticed any side effects until this year, when 24 hours later I had a distinct progression of numbness in my feet which I still have a month later. This is how my neuropathy, diagnosed way before COVID, has always progressed, sudden progression. I don’t know if this is a coincidence or not and I will still continue to get vaccinated as I imagine having Covid itself will also worsen my neuropathy even more.

@serenafix
Yes, After the 3rd Covid shot, I have had extreme numbness
and stiffness in my feet and lower legs, mostly in the evening for approx. 4 years now. I have gone through every conceivable treatment, taken large doses of gabapentin for years and nothing has changed. I have always believed that the booster shot (3rd shot) was the cause of all this grief. Has anyone found any treatment or relief yet?

@ograf49 yes, I got PN after my 2nd Phizer Covid shot. Lots of folks have…..
