@creativecat I am sorry the Neurologist didn't provide much insight. This is still all new to traditional Doctors. I did take Prednisone for 10 days. It helped alleviate my symptoms during the time I took it, but it did not eliminate them. I would recommend that you take it. 10 days of the steroid is not harmful to your system. Hopefully for you, it will be enough to eliminate the inflammation flareup. Good luck! Let me know how things go.
Reading the many experiences of people on this forum it’s clear to see that the first concern of their doctors has been stroke. And with the history of the vaccines that is a reasonable concern. However, with the new research on the vaccines it has become clear that the clotting produced would be much smaller than a CT scan would be designed to pick up. A clear indicator of elevated clotting would be picked up by a d-dimer test which is a test to detect elevated levels of a protein released from clotting clearance by the body. Elevated levels of this protein, with a negative CT scan, would indicate large amount of small clotting and no large clots. This might be the reason the symptoms described are not severe or completely debilitating, although horrific to suffer. Tinnitus, dizziness, sensory issues, fatigue, and brain fog are all symptoms of stroke and heart issues. The vaccines have been proven to cause both heart issues and clotting and have been shown to continue to cause these issues months afterwards.
I advise anyone with such symptoms especially if these symptoms are recent to ask their doctor for a d-dimer test. And just a note on the test, in general it only works when the clotting is recent, as the body clears the clotting the d-dimer levels would rise and then drop. But if the vaccine mechanism is correctly deciphered at this point clotting would be continuous and should present constantly elevated d-dimer levels. Last advise, is to investigate NAC (N-acytel cysteine) as it combats general clotting, please do your research before starting this supplement.
Update, I did a complete blood work and my monocytes and eosinophils are low. Bilirubin total and bilirubin indirect is high. Creatinine is high aswell. Does anyone know what this mean? I have to show my doctor these results at the next appointment.
@myadan i have this sutiation too
@creativecat My brother is in a very similar situation like you. He is like that since his first pfizer dose and skipped the second dose for obvious reasons.
It has been 4 months. He went to pretty much all kind of doctors and got tons of scans and tests done. On paper he is great but in practice not even close.
Tried tons of stuff (supplements, vitamins, antihistamines, steroid (16mg prednisone for 3 days)) but no relief whatsoever. His symptoms are very similar to your descriptions (I've looked at your old messages before writing this).
I wish I could give you good news but at least I'm writing this to let you know that If we somehow find a way out of this (with treatment or time) I'll keep you informed. Please do the same.
Also we were thinking that maybe using higher dose steroid longer might be needed and it is what your doctor recommended. I completely understand your hesitation but it might actually be good idea to try that if you can stay at home during that time
@rraymo1123 @vickie1606 @didigo @Threeofakd
Hello everyone, thank you for sharing your experiences. I hope it was ok to @ you all, I just seen that you all like @Vickie1606 ‘s comment above and am reaching out on behalf of a family member who is experiencing very similar and frightening symptoms post second vaccine. Symptoms include rushes and waves of intense anxiety, adrenaline and panic. Being unable to sleep (usually no issue with this) a fast heart rate, chest pain and flickers of suicide ideation/thoughts. A pin prick sensation in throat and strange feelings in chest/legs. This seems to be getting worse and is very frightening. This person is generally healthy and well and the doctors are unsure of what is happening. Is there any help or advice any one can provide? Anything is appreciated. Very scary situation. Thank you all and I hope you are all feeling better. Thanks - T
@pumpkinfriday hi I also had the J&J and have had terrible nausea, vomiting, dizziness and vertigo. I have not had any heart issues, but wanted to share I take Propanolol 20mg 2x day for anxiety. It is a beta blocker and I was taking this prior to the vaccine. Since I have not experienced any heart issues I wanted to share in case this may help with your chest pain. It is prescribed for angina as well so maybe it can help you. I hope you get better soon!!
I had my second dose of Moderna back in May. I had the typical aches and pains and shivers that commenced 11 hours after the injection. Had a very difficult night. It eased up after a couple days. But five days after the injection, I had violent vertigo case as I was getting out of bed in the morning. This was back in mid-May. I have had sporadic vertigo episodes ever since - every couple weeks. However, I have had constant lightheadedness or what I like to call pre-vertigo feelings. I just don't feel well. Saw ENT finally in August. Epleys do help for vertigo. Seems to be my left ear when it happens - I got shot in left arm - that may or may not explain anything. However, I have not gotten any relief from the constant lightheadedness. I have a tough time concentrating for periods longer than 10 minutes. Just engaging in conversations can be too much. Just about every evening I finish the day with a headache that seems to originate in back of my head between the ears and the back of my neck. My primary care physician is convinced the vaccine caused this issue. She has a few other patients with the same problems. Unfortunately, the medical profession has not found a solution to this. I believe this side-effect is significantly under-reported. I simply wanted to contribute to this blog so another person has reported this side-effect.
Hi all! I’ve been having dizziness for almost 8 weeks post first P vax. Especially when I’m driving. I have not driven over 10 min drives because I’m worried about having a bad dizzy spell while driving🤬🤬. Off and on I feel head pressure and fullness in my ears. My question is do any of you get really extra dry eyes?? On occasion my eyes seem to get bone dry and definitely seem more sensitive to light and sunlight?? Also anyone have dizziness when driving that has started to subside??
anyone have experience with the idea of vaccine shedding?
im not vaxxed, but a few weeks ago my girlfriend got her first Pfizer dose and within a few days of me being around her, I got the worst fever I’ve gotten in years and it took me out for days, with neurological symptoms lasting for another week or two after.
Since then, I’ve heard the idea of “vaccine shedding” being brought up in various places, and now I’m wondering if that’s what’s happened. She gets her second dose tomorrow and I’m extremely nervous to be around her now.
@deedee I'm 13 weeks in and have the exact same symptoms, dizziness has finally become a bit less worse the past few weeks but also still don't drive very far because it triggers my headaches and dizzy spells.
