Glad to hear you are improving!
4 months is a LONG ASS TIME to be feeling this way 🤦♀️ Thankfully I am much better than I was, although I am still not 100% and do still have bad days among the good. I would say most days that I’m 90% better (although occasionally I still get days where I feel rough). I’m also still on the roller coaster of symptoms where I get a stint of almost normal days (feeling like this is behind me) followed by a handful of not so great days. I’m VERY impatient and want to be 100% right now (my hubby and I were planing on having a baby which was the whole reason I got vaccinated in the first place). Now I’m being forced to wait because I’m still not well. I am grateful, though, that I am making progress, it just feels soooooo slow that some days I get down in the dumps feeling like no progress is being made.

I am happy to hear that you have improved and are almost 100% most days. This is a very good sign. 😊 I think that most people on the forum felt better around this mark....but yes, it's way too long. Did you get fully vaccinated? A few of the people I know felt better after the 2nd shot or felt nothing at all. Some people got their first reaction after the second shot - this is different. I know it's controversial but I will be taking a second shot and then will avoid revaccination at all costs in the future unless it's mandatory.
My husband and I also planned to start a family next year but first travel a bit more. Jokes on us lol
@gingerjones even if you don't try ivermectin or they do t feel it's suitable they may have other things they can try. It's an option to try ivermectin but if you are unsure they likely have options. Talk it through with y the Dr at the appointment, I'm going to talk it through at mine. Xxx
Yes ear ringing along with many other symptoms I am finding intolerable.
I have had many adverse medication reactions but none like this vaccine.
My medication reactions mostly self resolved in a short length of time.
I'm at the point where I'll try anything to feel well again.
Well, you and Ginger seem to be about to set out as the Ivermectin scouts for our little wagon train. Praying for your wisdom, protection, and recovery! 😌🙏
@thenystagmus me too, at this point I'm willing to try anything - don't forget I have that sparkly unicorn to ride so need to feel better for that! X
Yes, I am fully vaccinated. I did not have any major issues after the first (except for a sore neck/shoulders, but didn’t really think anything of it at the time). This nightmare started after the second vaccine. For a while, before I found this forum, I legit thought I was crazy. SO thankful to know that it’s not all in my head and that it was for sure the vaccine. I do really worry about getting covid in the future though. I wonder…if the vaccine caused all of this, wouldn’t the virus to the same?? I really cannot imagine going through all of this again.

Yes, I remember... 🎠
"If wishes were horses/unicorns, we all would ride!"
That's why I've tried steroids, which has been quite the ride! ...something I wouldn't have imagined myself ever wanting to do!
I'll bet we all want to ride those well-wishes all the way to our Health.Home once again! After all, what else do we ever talk about here?! 😌🙏
Anyone have issues with their family insisting that this is all just horrible anxiety? I don’t know how to explain to them that’s it’s not!
I'd imagine your family probably means well, but that sounds like insult on top of injury. 😕🙏
I'm not really sure what my family thinks. But I do have the advantage of the rotary chair test showing that I have VOR (vestibular ocular reflex) dysfunction. But if they'd stopped at just doing the ENG/VNG w/caloric testing, I wouldn't have shown any significantly abnormal results.
It's very hard that this issue is so hard to be observed, let alone be diagnosed!

Yes, she did say there are other options...so, I am keeping the appointment...and besides that, there are NO positive articles out there in regards to ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine and such because the Government and big Pharma won't make any money on them...it's all so political!!
@nodiagnosis thank you for you post. I too have so many fleeting, seemingly minor symptoms that I feel like a crazy person. It is reassuring to hear that your doctor is not as concerned because of this.
@wynnwolter I had a Dr. tell me it is anxiety and I was like “ok, I can deal with that!” And I wish she was right! Really, as we all know, it’s anxiety as a result of terrifying and debilitating symptoms and fear of long-term damage on top of symptoms. I have been working to calm my anxiety so that I don’t make symptoms, and in return, my anxiety worse.
@rraymo1123 This was exactly my experience too! After the first dose, I felt like it brought in anxiety for me. I was reluctant to get the second dose. I kept asking around to see if anyone else felt the same and people that I knew that had the vaccine didn’t have that experience. I ended up getting the second vaccine on May 4. By May 7th I was in the ER with severe, debilitating anxiety and panic attacks. I lost 12 pounds in May. I stopped driving. My daughter went to stay with my parents because I felt like I couldn’t even take care of her. I couldn’t eat and when I did I was vomiting. I couldn’t sleep. I am finally feeling better. I am still not back to my old self but I am driving again and back to work after 6 weeks. I am able to sleep, not as well as before I had the vaccine. I am able to eat.
I did report to both the CDC and Pfizer but never heard anything from either of them.
