I took for 10 days @ 2 tablets 3 times a day, it didnt help me, so i stopped taking.
I feel so hopeless with these side effects. I have no idea how to navigate the medical system. I have a very complicated pre-existing medical issue (which i was managing just fine pre-vaccine) and a very complicated vaccine reaction and it seems like almost everyone gaslights me on the vaccine part of it. buuuuut just look at this site...this isnt an antivax site, its a site for people with vestibular issues and there are so many of us reporting the exact same issues. something has happened to us, Yet no one is talking about, it, why? I don't know where to turn for any kind of real help anymore. I don't get vertigo anymore, but i still have a lack of depth perception and very severe dark eye floaters. laser treatment is an option with floaters. had it done twice, some effectiveness. im thinking about trying again with a more specialized doctor. basically i have to act as if i can see perfectly all day at work, driving my car, and i feel like something is really not right with my eyes and i dont know what to do about it. im afraid to go anyhere, to drive, to look at anything white (floaters), be in the sun, be in an unfamiliar spce or a familiar space where i have seen floaters before. im just in bad shape and i dont feel like i have anything to live for, any quality of life left. i used to feel comfortable doing my job, driving anywhere, outdoor stuff,, nothing is pleasant in my life anymore. im so sick of this. its not fair.
my 2 cents, will take a longer break from this forum now.. Do I regret having had the shorts... no, because I do believe that me and each and every one of us made the right decision at the time, based on the knowledge and facts that were available to us. If we would have known that we would get such symptoms for who knows how long, probably we all would have skipped the shot. So no point in beating oneself because of having had the vaccine. Boosters I guess are not something that people who roam this forum intend to have.. we looked at the risks and benefits, did our calculations and made the decision..
I think it is logical that we all want and are looking for answers but going down the rabbit hole too deep will just create more confusion, disappointment and frustration.. Do take breaks and whenever you get the bad days, its best to take it one day at a time.. Trust we will all get better with time.. pcmn
Just registered to add my experience. I had the Pfizer vaccine a little over a month ago. After 6 days I woke up with vertigo symptoms - when I was lying in bed and tilting my head to one side the room spun around for about 5 seconds. The Epley maneuver consistently triggered it. I didn't do anything about it and just waited it out as it did not affect my daily life too much, and I was careful not to trigger it in dangerous situations. This went on for 9 days, after which it suddenly reduced in intensity by 90%. I had some residual symptoms by 3 weeks, so I delayed my second dose to the maximum accepted in my country (40 days). By that time I only had some slight dizziness occur when turning my head quickly.
I had the second shot in the other arm on the 13th and today (9 days later) woke up to the exact same symptoms. I did the test to see on which side the problem is, and it's on the same side as the arm I got the vaccine in. Not sure if it's coincidence or if it has some connection.
I will edit this post to add details in the future, but just wanted to reiterate that the first symptoms went away suddenly, and not gradually - so don't be alarmed if the vertigo doesn't seem to improve over time, it could be that one day you wake up and it's gone.
What annoys me though is the doctor's attitudes, that if something happens after 2-3 days, then they say it's definitely not from the vaccine, and refuse to do anything...
A small update - the second time around the symptoms persisted for about 2 months before disappearing. I still have slight dizziness when I tilt my head quickly down and to the side.
I entered the side effects and my vaccination details on the Pfizer COVID vaccine side effects page, and I recommend others do the same: https://www.pfizersafetyreporting.com/
Also there appears to be some literature appearing about these inner ear symptoms after the vaccine, which is encouraging.
With the new variant coming, my doctor recommends that I do take the 3rd dose, I'll post an update when that happens.
Hello all,
let me tell my story too. I apologize for my English. I was vaccinated with the J&J vaccine in September and a few days later I started to experience severe pain on the left side of my head that lasted for a few moments and subsided. Pain showed up several times when I was under stress. I later noticed that my fingers started to move on their own and soon I had a muscle twitch all over my body. My symptoms are dizziness, malaise, muscle twitching, especially in the arms and legs. The last few days I also have a feeling that I don’t have real strength in my legs. I get tired quickly and generally feel bad. Anxiety also contributes its share. Doctors prescribe all anxiety and don’t even want to hear that it could be related to the vaccine. So far, I have done CT scans of the head, multiple blood tests, RGT of the lungs and abdomen. Everything is fine. But I feel catastrophic and definitely too worried. I am 40 years old and I am extremely afraid of how this will be resolved. As i see a lot of people had problems for months and so far I haven't seen anyone recover completely. I’m trying with B complex, vitamin D, and magnesium citrate myself, but I have a feeling there isn’t some big change. I hope the situation is only temporary and that we all eventually recover and live a normal life .
@medee I’ve been all around the doc spectrum and it looks like I now have nerve pain and maybe ms.

🥺🥺
@medee currently trying pregablin for nerve pain. About a week into it. I can’t say I didn’t have signs of ms before or if the shot gave or even just aggravated it but, I had never had constant headaches in the crown of my head in my life until after I got the moderna vaccine. They want another mri and see me again at the end of March. At that point this will be going on for about a year.

What did your 1st MRI show? I haven't done one yet.
I have constant pain in the back of my head, the top portion.
