Because there has been talk lately about digestive disorders, on the forum, I would like to share an experience taken from a recent article: “Role of imaging in rare COVID-19 vaccine multiorgan complications”:
“A report described a potential association between gastroparesis and vaccine, with refractory nausea and vomiting. A nuclear imaging study (Gastric Emptying Scintigraphy) showed delayed gastric emptying, which improved after a course of prednisone. The authors concluded that the mechanism of action of vaccine may precipitate immune-mediated gastroparesis”.
Generally, gastroparesis may have various symptoms: vomiting, nausea, abdominal bloating, abdominal pain, a feeling of fullness after eating just a few bites, acid reflux, backup of stomach contents into the esophagus, vomiting undigested food eaten a few hours earlier, poor appetite and weight loss, changes in blood sugar levels.
Gastroparesis is due to vagus nerve damage (other possible symptoms at page 944 @plandistry).
This could be the explanation for the suffering, in some cases, and could be investigated in this way.
Anyone here with creaky bones and joints ? Did it go away ?
It's really weird. I had terrible initial effects after my 2nd vax (chest pain, neuropathy, dizziness, tinnitus) that gradually resolved over 2-3 months.
Now, at month 4, most of that is gone. But I've started noticing a new crunching sound when I move my neck and shoulders. I think a few others here have also mentioned something similar. Only thing I can think is that recently I've started trying a bit of alcohol and sugar again. I'm going to go back to really watching my diet and see if it makes any difference.
We're your symptoms debilitating at all so far mine somewhat mild ? Any GI issues ? What did you do or take ? I am coming up to week 10 haven't taken much.
@djmatera Congrats on your recovery. It's so refreshing to hear stories like yours. Just wondering, did you ever get tinnitus as a side effect and, if yes, did that resolve also?? Did you take / do anything specific for the tinnitus (if you had it). Thanks and congrats again.
Hi all,
It's been a little while since I posted. On March 28th I'll hit the 10 month mark post 2nd (and last) Pfizer jab.
Last time I posted, I noted that I was in the 100/95 club (100%, 95% of the time). I think I am ready to successfully say that this has increased to 100/97. Small gains. I am thinking between May and August, I'll be back to 100/100. If anyone is interested in what I did/have been doing to heal, see my post on page 905.
I had a small setback in February. Migraines...and not my original vestibular migraine/neuritis with dizziness from last summer. These were dull headaches on the left side of my head (the same side where I was experiencing ear pain/where my vestibular migraine/neuritis emanated from), and these headaches wouldn't go away...they lasted for several weeks. They were very annoying, but they didn't prevent me from living normally each day. Then March rolled around, and one day I woke up and they were gone. Bizarre. I do get them intermittently, but not very often. While I have substantially reduced/eliminated a lot of the supplements I was taking, I have increased my intake of Lion's Mane, which I believe is helping a lot.
Several lingering symptoms I have are left leg achiness/dullness (no pain though), which is generally constant (but does dissipate every so often), muscle fasciculations (mostly in my thighs and stomach, but substantially less frequent than what I was experiencing last summer), and every so often some very very minor lightheadedness. Oh, and I definitely have some PTSD from this whole ordeal. But, I can live with that.
I am running 1.5-2.5 miles/day 3-4x/week, drinking wine and coffee again, and living a very normal life. Back in early December I was doing none of that. No more heart issues/chest pain, any residual dizziness is beyond minor and irrelevant, and overall I feel fantastic, especially when comparing my state now vs. 7-8 months ago. I even had my 5 month old daughter's christening this past weekend and drank an entire bottle of wine (oops). Definitely had some nasty but refreshing symptoms of inebriation afterwards lol.
I hope these words give you all some encouragement. I literally thought last summer was my last, and was preparing for the end. And while I can't give you any certainties as we're all unique and our bodies are all handling this slightly different, I truly believe the majority here will one day look back at this time as simply a very bad memory.
I'm still on the propranolol (beta blocker) and clonazepam for my vestibular migraines/neuritis, and have an appointment scheduled in May with my ENT, at which point the plan is to ween off of that medication. I'm becoming more and more confident that I no longer need them. I'll resurface and post in a few months on how that goes and how I'm doing.
Keep fighting the fight, and stay positive. You all got this!
What did you do and what did you take ?what was your progression like ?
Just curious - has anyone here tried Silencil for tinnitus? I am very wary of such "supplements", although they state that all ingredients are natural and there are no synthetics, drugs, etc. Thanks in advance for any and all replies.
A couple of things about my tinnitus. First, it seems to spike (it's a very high pitch sound) when I enter a room with some kind of electronics on, like a TV, or in my bathroom if I have the overhead exhaust fan on. Also, it spikes / changes volume if I stretch my neck/head muscles. Just wondering if that's normal for tinnitus. The head/neck aspect makes it sound lie it could be somatic, but I's pretty convinced it's because of the vaccines. Looking forward to any comments.

Thanks for coming back and updating us all with your success!! This is just what we need to hear...Good for you to keep on fighting and staying positive...that is the way to heal!!
@alexa Hello, I also went to the emergency room for your same symptoms. The hospital was of no use. I spent two weeks with my eyes closed.
Hi I’m a 31 year old male and before the vaccine I was very healthy active person with bi major medical history.
i received my second vaccine (Pfizer) on November 13 2021. About 2 weeks laters I started experiencing a strong viabration and pins and needles in my left foot and occasional pins and needles in the hand and right foot. On December 4 I woke up with weakness in my legs which was unusual for me and just thought it would go away. That afternoon I felt extremely unwell and fatigued and had to take a nap wich is extremely rare for me, I woke up from the nap with bad pins and needles in my right arm and still feeling very unwell. After feeling like this for the next month or so I just kept on pushing through having some good days and som pretty bad days I then started getting a lot of dizziness to the point I would stumble and had to stop my self from falling I eventually ended up in the emergency room twice and admitted to hospital once I was barley able to walk and I felt dizzy and weak and had pains in my legs palms arches of my feet and also join pains, ringing in my ears and a feeling like they where slightly blocked. I don’t remember how many blood test I’ve had but it was a fair few with all test coming back fine I also had chest x rays ct scan on the spine and brain and a lumbar puncture wich those test all come back fine. It has been roughly about 4 months since my first symptoms and I’d say I’m feeling about 70% better I get sore very quickly after working around the house and my muscles are still a bit weak and odd feeling. The docters have said they will monitor my symptoms for the next few months and will go from there (what ever that means).
After all the tests I was desperate for answers and desperate to feel better. I drank fruit smoothies every day cut out all in healthy foods stoped drinking alcohol because it made me feel 10 times as worse. I started to do hyperbaric chamber sessions twice a week wich I believed to help a lot with the symptoms.
I can now do a lot more and also enjoy a couple of beers without feeling absolutely terrible but I’m still not 100%.
I apologise if this is a bit all over the shop I’m just writing as things come to my head. The last 4 months have been up there with the most horrible things I have been through. I have asked the docters if this could be vaccine related and all they ever say is there is no way of telling. If anyone has any questions just ask, I have left a lot out that has happened.
Guys i watched a super explanation from a german UNiversity professor:
He told that the Spike Proteins are goind to everyhwere in the body and stay there for far too long (at least 4 months), thats why they damage the body, organs and also provoke a permanent immunereaction.
For example in the heart, lever, kidneys, brains and so on.
Probem is also that the Vacc goes into the brain (through the blood-brain barrier) and lets even the brain produce Spikeproteins.
The Spikeproteins in the brains can be resposibble for a dangerous brain inflammation or that even one of the vessels in the brain bursts and which is also a vast problem for the brain and the patient.
So my question is: Can an MRI make it possible to see if you have a brain inflammation or that the vessels are still in good shape?
Or has only a Head-CT the ability to show if you have inflammations in the brain or how the vessels look like?
I also know that they can get brainwater from your spinal cord and check of you have an inflammation in your brain.
But this method is also dangerous and is very painful and risky.
Oh I forot to say that its mostly the Spikes in the heart which causes the heart inflammation and from it many people get an heartattack.
So many heartattakc in very young people and kids, which was in the past impossible.
Also anyone hsa done an heart MRI or CT here?
@jesselovshack Thanks for the update on your status, glad to hear you are feeling better. Stories like yours give the rest of us hope for eventual recovery. Curious: how bad was your tinnitus and has that also resolved to some degree? Thanks.
@watis hoping that your chest is feeling better. New symptoms are always so scary. But know that you are not alone. We are all here with you and hoping for recovery.
@zlatka70 I was just wondering how your stomach issue is now? And did the antibiotics help?
Many Thanks Susie, yesterday with my chest it was awful and also a painful coughing. Today it is gone.
But since I am on my 6th day of taking my SSRI, I was today hit with a very bad depression. This is but usual for he first 2-3 weeks of the start of an SSRI.
I have to fight he depression as much as I can, I already take Tavor and Opripramol, but even with this powerfull support, the depresssion of the first weeks of an SSRI start is very scary.

Awesome to hear on your way to recovery. What supplements did yiu take and did you do an anti-inflammatory diet ?
