Their Stories

Motor dysfunction, Ligament pain and Tendon pain

4.3.2021 – The muscle/body aches have been on the L side of my neck & my L shoulder. The injection site was my L arm.

4.23.2021 – same site (L arm), same pain & stiffness in shoulder & neck

10.26.2021 – I began having brain fog in mid 2020. I don't know it's relevant to the vaccines, necessarily, but I thought I should mention it for the sake of COVID data collection.

4.17.2022 – I kept dropping things all day. (Occasional loss of grasp function)

4.18.2022 – Tendons/ligaments in both wrists hurt.

4.19.2022 – My temperature rarely reaches "the norm", 98.6

9.18.2022 – no chills, & no fever, technically - just periods of feeling extremely hot. I'm a burn survivor, so being hot & sweaty is a way of life. It just seems more pronounced over the past few days.

Vomiting projectile, Rash papular and Sleep disorder

1.28.2021 – On day 8, the injection site started swelling and was about 7 cm in diameter and was raised approx 1/2 cm. I experienced itching and that night I had projectile vomiting. The vomiting stopped after about 3 1/2 hours, but the swelling lasted 4 days.

Specialist consultation and Rash

3.2.2021 – Rash started last night which was 3 days after 2nd dose. Developed first on non injection arm and then spread to both arms, chest, back and upper legs. Resolved 99% by morning following several Benedryl 25 mg doses. Nothing other than the vaccine different to explain the rash. No fever and vitals stable throughout the episode. I consulted my rheumatologist as I was told to hold my methotrexate for 1 week post vaccine. He said safe to miss the dose despite the rash.

Tendonitis, Hypoesthesia and Respiratory tract congestion

3.2.2021 – On my left side (where my shot was administered) I have severe what feels like tendonitis in my left elbow. Also have numbness on my skin on my left foot. I have had no trauma or injury to account for these changes. Issues are only left side.

3.9.2021 – My first shot was in my left arm. I developed tendonitis in my left elbow, and had no other injury or exertion for it to occur. Also had numbness in my left foot, not right. Not sure if any of this is attributable to my first vaccine, but it all only occurred on my left side where I received the first shot.

Now I am telling people not to get it because of how extreme the side affects are.
