Hi guys, Tomorrow I am officially two months since my first Pfizer dose. I've only felt completely fine for two days the rest have all been like being in a nightmare. my dizziness is constant 24/7 I feel like I'm drunk, I can't walk, my head feels very strange, heavy and I feel out of place, out of reality. I have also had palpitations but my strongest symptom is dizziness, this does not let me live in peace. I have had thoughts of ending my life, I miss my health, my freedom, being able to go for a walk and take care of my baby.
Has anyone felt better after two months of severe symtoms? Please I want to read stories of recovered people how they made it, I feel like I can't take it anymore. I stopped driving, exercising, and I'm not working. I miss these things with all my heart😭😭😭 Any medicine or treatment that has helped? Please anyone tell me this improve😭😭😭😭😭💔💔💔💔 ♥ ️ ♥ ️ ♥ ️
@romaina Hi, how long it take you to recover and what did you take? Omg I’m so happy for you and I would love to be writing this words one day. I Keep praying for a miracle and you make me believe That miracles can happen! Thank you
@sarahrua I'm a shy week of my first pfizer shot to yours and so far been functional since 3rd week. the last 6week and now on my 7 week i'm better and always 100%. I have little flare ups but mostly with my existing rhinitis that became intense after the vaccine, little blurriness but on and off, then on and off dizziness w few episodes but mostly gone when i'm working, walking or busy and sometimes tinnitus or nothing at all. I tried some supplements as the rest of everyone here, but i cut them off, but what I do that really made me better in 3rd week and so on are; I increased my water to 3L per day, eat a lot of healthy food, cut down the processed and fried foods including my coffee, do my workout (even I was dizzy!!!am crazy but I was so intense in beating it), cut down my supplements on the same week too from 7 to 3, sleep in between days (30-40mins NAP at my work break), a lot of meditation, affirmation everyday,cast my rants/emotions to my friends/family who gives endless moral support, acupuncture per week and that includes electro-acupuncture with my whole body and (IT HELPS a lot really) I also made sure my tests and bloodworks are normal before doing it and I stay away from social media most of the time and PRAY. The most intense symptoms was the first 2weeks.
I still feel some symptoms but mostly its from my allergic rhinitis which is also toning down after i used it w air humidifier everyday. Now i had some repeat blood works, checked w my neuro and Urine test this week too and ALL came normal. Which I'm grateful. I think time heals and I feel you how frustrating it is and can low our self-esteem. I was active, my working is boxing and race then it was stopped. I cried a lot, a lot of tears till im tired of crying (LOL), but when I see results from my naturopath , faith and went through the pain without taking any pain reliever or even my antihistamine even to my rhinitis. It was a relief and I see the light on this dark tunnel. I'm still very vigilant w my symptoms but when I see the results and opinions of my Gps and family members in medical world, it is re-assuring.
Hope you feel better and we will be well soon.
Hi, which type of vitamin supplements are you taking? Are they helpful? How are you feeling now?
Hi, i had my pfizer 2nd dose on 30th Aug and had little hand pain for 1-2 days after the dose, no other symptoms. Week after the 2nd dose on 7th Sep i started getting left hand pain, chest pain, belching and palpitations all day and doesn't go away. Also, feeling anxious and unable to control thoughts. It seems like your symptoms are same as mine. Are you settled now and what did you do? Thanks
Hi, how are you feeling now? Has all your symptoms subsided? What about the chest pain?
Do reply! Take care.
@nath7 how are you feeling now? Is there any improvement to the chest pain issue?
Have you been taking any medication for it?
Hello everyone, I just got my COVID-19 shot on 9/11/2021 and I felt like I was pressured into it. Well after the shot the shoulder pain kicked in like a horse kicked me but I laid down to sleep guessing 4 hours after the shot I felt my heart started shaking and I set up in bed like what was that then I laid down again and a sickness jump on me fast went to bathroom and gotten sick and I went back to lay down. The heart kept bugging me and sharp pains will shoot through my chest. Morning time I was still sick in stomach and tired but the heart and chest still bothering me and I feel maybe because I gotten sick and I won’t be getting the second shot!
How are you feeling now? Has the chest pain gone? Did you take any medication for it?
I started feeling dizzy 3 days after taking my second shot of moderna, so I scheduled a doctor's visit. The doctor found no reason for my dizziness and sent me home. Eventually, the dizziness went away on its own. Last week, I was able to get a booster shot of moderna. Everything was fine for about 3-days. Then I started getting dizzy all over again. I'm convinced that dizziness is a side affect of the vaccine for some patients.
An interesting article about several US doctors speaking out after covid vaccine injury:
Hey I’m going on week 3 after first Pfizer vaccine. Been having numbness/tingling randomly in different parts of my body. I also have random pains that come and go mostly in joints but as well as other places. The most worrisome part is the chest pressure I am feeling. It makes me scared. Has anybody else experienced these and had any luck with doctors or the symptoms go away? I had went to the er last Friday and they did some blood work, chest x ray and stuff and said it was all normal.
How have you been feeling now? Is there any improvement to your chest pain? I had an episode just now on the right side of my chest and then reduced. Were or are you on any medication?
Yeah, me searching everyday about these symptoms is making me go crazy...
But then today I am starting to feel chest pain but I did blood test and chest x-ray few times and all came out normal, so idk anymore seriously.
Just praying for these symptoms to go away...
I see it has been months since you posted this. How are you feeling now? Did your chest pain go away? Have you been on any medication for it?
Has anyone whom received the Pfizer vaccine ever have or heard of anyone having adverse side effects or allergic reaction such as severe chest pain, chest burning, stomach upset including cramps, vomiting, ulcers and/or severe weakness in muscles, aches and pains, increase arthritic activity. Anything noticeable after receipt of being fully vaccinated?

Hi everyone, I’m almost 4 months post my second Pfeizer shot and 3 months since the symptoms started. My main issue as mentioned before is rocking/swaying dizziness like Mdds. It’s currently worse than ever, it’s 24/7 and pretty intense. I’ve been hoping it would improve with time but it hasn’t so far. I have some random days that are not as bad but mostly bad days for the last month or so. This is becoming so difficult to deal with, I’m currently taking time off work. That being said it definitely helps a bit moving and doing things outside even though it’s not always a clear connection. I wonder if I made my dizziness worse by focusing so much on it over the past few months although it’s hard not to when it’s intense and constant. I also have some associated vision symptoms like shaky vision, trouble focusing, after images etc. Needless to say I’ve been feeling helpless and terrified over my symptoms intensifying.
Other issue is insomnia. It only started a month or so ago so I’m hoping it’s not directly related to the vaccine but rather the stress I’ve been going through. Apparently it’s not actually possible to lose ability to sleep so telling myself this has helped me keep me sane though. I’ve been trying to avoid sleep aids as I’ve been told they can make insomnia worse in the long run. I have an odd good night here and there so I’m trying to tell myself clearly I still have ability to sleep but the vast majority of nights are a struggle.
I’ve been taking all possible supplements with no tangiable result yet. I think my plan is to keep taking the supplements but try to accept my symptoms as much as possible and focus on other things, practice mindfulness, get myself outside and moving etc. I do think fighting my symptoms makes them more pronounced and at this point it kinda feels like my only option and hopefully with time it at least reduces them in intensity. I will be speaking to a psychiatrist this week about medication options - even though I don’t believe my symptoms are directly anxiety related my mental health has been a mess due to this and I’ve also been told that antidepressants can be helpful sometimes with PPPD/MDDs type dizziness so hoping it might help me a bit too.
So, I wanted to tell my experience to see if others may have received similar bloodwork. I got my first Pfizer shot beginning of March. I had just a sore arm, but two weeks later began to experience periodic dizziness, diarrhea and mild chest pain. This may be TMI but My weekly cycle was super heavy to the point I thought I was going to bleed to death. I have never had that happen in my entire life. I got bloodwork done and was told my white blood cell count and iron stores were low and we should recheck in a month.
I got my second shot end of March and had a horrific time- fever of 104, horrible body aches and debilitating chills. I recovered from that in 36 hours but continued to have the dizziness, chest pain and diarrhea. It got so bad at one point I ended up in urgent care because I almost passed out from the dizziness. I had a normal EKG and stool culture there
I went in to retest my bloodwork about 4 weeks after my second dose while all these symptoms were still occurring. My white blood cells were even lower, my iron stores were almost gone and I received a positive ANA test that looks to see if I have antibodies that would indicate an autoimmune response. Prior to this I did not have an autoimmune condition.
It has been 10 weeks since my first dose. My diarrhea is finally subsiding and with it the chest pain. The dizziness is probably 75% better. I am very concerned that the things we are experiencing are not due to inflamed vestibular nerves but more of an autoimmune reaction. It has been said that Covid is an “autoimmune disease” and that long Covid May actually be an autoimmune response as up to 50% of those hospitalized with Covid had a positive ANA according to research articles I have read.
I wonder how many of us with these symptoms after vaccination may test positive for ANA on bloodwork. I am now being referred to hematology and rheumatology. If it is autoimmune related this could have long term consequences that concern me.
How are you feeling now? Has the chest pain vanished completely? If it has, how long did it take for it to subside completely? Has life gone back to normal?
