@rainyday Was your sugar also affected by the vax? I developed reactive hypoglycemia and crazy sugar spikes after carbs. All is this debilitating, 5 month post 1st vax and I did not get my 2nd.
I have no idea; I haven't been tested for it. I notice that several times per week, I will suddenly become weak, shaky, and flushed. It goes away almost as soon as I eat or drink something. I'm therefore assuming it has something to do with blood sugar. I'm planning on bringing it up to my provider the next time I see her - but not planning on getting any real answer as to what it is.
It's mind-boggling how this vaccine can affect every organ in your body but not show up on blood tests, scans, etc.
I saw an article from ABC News this morning on how a majority of vaccine reactions are "placebo effects." It's upsetting that they continue to push this untrue, and harmful, narrative through mainstream media. It silences those who are legitimately injured and closes them off from receiving the research and care they need.
@rainyday For sure. Most doctors just brush me off, say I am having panic attacks and tell me to get on phych meds. But I never had panic attacks. See my long post from yesterday. I had Covid prior to VAX and I think that my symptoms from the vax were because I already had COVID. There are a few autonomic specialists in US and the wait to see them is very long, plus I am sure that all the tests are really expensive and half not covered by insurance. The human body is so complex and intertwined, I just don't think there is a doctor out there who can pinpoint what exactly is occurring. I had episodes like you as well. I wore a monitor for a few months but because so crazy with it because it would beep while I slept and tell me that my sugar is going low but it was because I would lay on it and it would have inaccurate readings. With a finger prick, I sometimes feel like you when my sugar is normal, sometimes when it is on the low end of normal but at the ER they told me that even 60's is normal for people who are not diabetic and that I should not feel the side affects. Perhaps our symptoms are from having become hypersensitive to every fluctuation within the body which used to go un-noticed? For instance, I lost my smell when I had Covid for just a day or two and it came back normal, and I was normal post Covid, but after the Vax, I became so sensitive by smells, specifically perfumes which I cannot wear anymore, spices and chilies when cooking, laundry detergent and cleaning things. Everything strong that I smell I feel like I have to spit, because it like hits the back of my nose so strong. I put 1 dot of perfume on the back of my neck and it bothered me all day, I felt like I was breathing in chemicals. Its truly bizarre and at this point it does affect my psyche because I never had any issues like this. I was afraid of being nauseas and throwing up, those were my anxieties in life. Now it's like everything is making me get adrenaline surges.
I hope that they start doing some research on the affects of the vax because at this point I am even afraid to get a flu vax which I have gotten many times before. I'm literally afraid of putting anything in my body.

Attached is an article someone just sent me regarding research being done on adverse effects of the covid vaccine...
Maybe finally, we will get the help we DESERVE!!
@nickpaul my heart goes out to you. I so hope things resolve for you and for all of us dealing with awful side effects after the vaccine.
I am on, month 6 of constant vertigo and hope and pray it will resolve. Three VT sessions didn't help at all.
If you get relief, please let us know. Hoping you feel better soon.
4 months suffering from imbalance, vertigo, nausea, pain behind my ears and still no answer from any of the specialist I've seen. I read here someone posted something about zeolite clinoptilolite. It's supposed to detox your body from the vaccine. I ordered today on Amazon and will give it a try along with going to a chiropractor. I am doing anything to get better these days. Like most of you I am mad, desperate, sad, depressed. We were tricked and lied to.
@marisanna21 FWIW, my ENT explained how if something in your vestibular system is off, and you are dizzy, your brain will try to use your eyes for balance in a way it is not supposed to. This can cause a lot of strain and the brain can perceive it all as a threat so launches the fight or flight response, releases adrenalin, etc, which can lead to the panic attacks. ENT has not diagnosed me yet, pending more tests. But, that logic seemed to make some sense.
@gingerjones I wanted to get the Shingles Vaccine but now I don't dare. Probably kill me
FINALLY!!!! In the Journal of Science none the less!!! Finally!!! Its not all in our heads! A spotlight on what we have been going through and possible treatment trials.
@julzcampbell1031 I'm 40 with two small kids, and have been dealing with the same for so long. For me it all appeared after my first shot. Take the time you need, even the kids can have quiet time with you! Thats what we do here! Some days are just better than others. I hope you feel better soon! Its hard enough being a mom!

Swollen lymph node on the left side of my neck
Chest pain
Shortness of breath
Left arm pain
Upper back pain on the the left side
Severe Anxiety and panic attacks
Nausea / Vomiting
High blood pressure
heart palpitations
Fatigue
Lower abdomen pain
Sensitive to light and sound
Tingling and numbness and all over my body
Headache
Pressure in the nose, feels like it’s going to bleed

It’s been 7 months, I’m mostly recovered from all those symptoms , and some days I feel totally normal. But the anxiety keeps coming back and when i’m anxious I will have the numbness and tingling all over my body. I don’t know how to get rid off this bad feeling. I’m so sick and tired of this situation that I’m in.
any idea or suggestions that could helps with reducing the anxiety ?

I have been celebrating this article all day. Thank you for posting it for us. It's a great step in the right direction. It feels SO good to be validated.
@vida30 sorry you had to go through these symptoms. Were you able to recover from weight loss?
It's been a week since I got my 3rd shot or booster shot. The side effects the day after was worse than the 2nd shot. I couldn't sleep because my legs ached so bad. I was having chills and sweats. I had a constant fever usually around 100 to 99.5. I slept very little the next night and the Second day after my booster felt like I had a hangover with a headache that lasted most of the day and brain fog, exhausted from no sleep and my body aches. I was thinking I would be fine the third day. No, I had numbness in my right foot and toes on the third and fourth day and I was still exhausted. Today is the seventh day after my booster, and I'm still exhausted. The numbness in my foot is mostly gone but my shins in both legs have been achy all day. I have been freezing at night lying in my bed with all the covers and socks on my feet which isn't normal for me. I'm still exhausted. I've been trying to take naps even with the kids home from school. I can't nap because my anxiety that this isn't normal fills my head. I have had dizzy spells where I take a step on my carpet and my house feels like it swayed back and forth. Everyone I talked to said the second shot was the worst for them. This third shot or booster wiped me out. I really hope we don't have to get a fourth shot. I don't think my body can take it. I broke down and cried yesterday from the feeling of being so weak for this long. I really hope I get my energy back soon, and brain fog and leg aches don't return. I'm 40 years old with 3 small kids who depend on me. This is scary.
Hello @julzcampbell1031,
This is not medical advice, but some on this forum have had some improvement when they are prescribed prednisone within the first couple weeks of having post-vaccine symptoms (to lessen the immune response). Not sure if it might be worth discussing with your doctor.
