The jab

Ever since COVID, I’ve been struggling with a pretty high level of chronic, unyielding pain…mostly in my feet and legs, but also (at a lower level) in my arms and hands.

I have difficulty standing for more than 5 minutes or so. I can’t walk more than a mile - and even that is tough. I can’t keep my shoes on very long. About the only exercise I can do is on a recumbent bike.

The list of doctors I’ve seen, in addition to my PCP, trying to figure this out:

3 neurologists
1 neurosurgeon
1 orthopedic surgeon
1 physiatrist
2 rheumatologists
1 cardiologist
1 pain specialist

I’ve had MRIs, CT scans, venous ultrasounds, nerve conduction studies, EMGs, PT, a muscle biopsy (which sucked)….

…nothing. All that I can do that has helped is wear a pain patch along with Naproxen and Tylenol.

My doctor and I both suspect it has something to do either with Covid or the vaccine. Two reasons: the timing of the onset and the inability to establish a diagnosis.

However, I never had a positive Covid test.

We saw early on that there were women in their 40s that were suffering debilitating tinnitus and neuralgia a couple weeks post pfizer vaccination. The good news is that some seem to be getting relief from their symptoms as time goes on.

See @Spartans9312 a woman in her 40s who was diagnosed with long Covid is who sent this to me.

Damn crazed that’s absolutely awful. Fcking hell
 
I have had no physical pain or long lasting new onset symptoms of anything medical. I have, to date, lost 26 lbs from my body and about 230 lbs from my marriage status, + another 185lbs that she gave birth too 27 yrs ago. I give a large credit to the fact that I NEVER got the jab even once. I've caught hell for it on here (I was labeled a heartless killer!!, along with many other non jabbers, on this very site) as well as, my questioning of the data and sketchy circumstances of the whole thing, caused even more major conflict in my marriage.
BUT, The bisch is gone, I have zero physical side (a)effects and never missed one minute of life from not getting the jab, so thank you (in part) covid!
This evil, heartless killer is laughing totally out loud, holding my shepherds hook just waiting on the next big hoax for all of the sheeple to buy into.

@crazed_hoosier2 , This was not in any way, intentionally aimed at you. I am truly sorry that you have been experiencing all of those symptoms, and especially not being able to find definitive answers. I don't target the person, I target the system! I pray/ hope you find answers soon sir.

I honestly just figured that this was a normal thing, even before any covid. Prove me wrong.
Crazy GIF

I got vaccinated. But after new data came out re spread, euro, and stats on low risk for kids I told my ex I think my daughter’s vaxxed but let’s take a breath. She doesn’t need boosters and shit. But my ex loves doctors and believes without reservation in all things medical despite the home we lived in coming from suing doctors and I suspect my daughter is now on her 178th booster

I really feel for you. My dad has diabetes and his feet drive him crazy. Used to say he’d rather his arm be lopped off than his feet drive him nuts

I can totally relate. It’s the kind of thing that’s easy to take for granted - until it’s a problem.

My feet feel like I’ve been wearing shoes two sizes too small. The pain in my legs is similar to the achy soreness you get after working out for the first time in a while. And they hurt 24/7/365.

First question I always get: are you diabetic? Nope. My A1C is a normal 4.9.

I’ve had a herniated disc before - had a discectomy. The sciatic pain was more intense and shooting. And only affected my left leg. At first I figured it might be some kind of nerve compression. But the MRIs haven’t revealed anything - and I had cervical, thoracic, and lumbar done.

Frustrating, to say the least.

Yep first question when you hear feet is diabetes. Then the all over is fibromyalgia as a dime store doc is always second thought. This will sound loony but explore the gut brain connection shit. Some very odd stuff

You my bratha, were fighting a totally different fight than I, and I appreciate what you were dealing with. I didn't and still don't judge those who got the jabs. Me (and my ilk) being blasted as willful murders..... is still caught in my craw. (its a terms about chicken anatomy and having something that simply "won't go down", so to speak).

The rest of your post, suing Dr..... FVCKIN epically priceless. We need a Alt Hallmark channel for men by gawd! They be cray cray!

I got the Covid vax and am glad I did. That doesn’t mean the lunatics on both sides weren’t lunatics. The “science” and the if the lefties love it we have to hate it

There is a well founded Correlation of, If x is Positive there is a very high % of it all being politically intended messaging to guide "A" into total bullshit for their current "cause"! Just sayin... I'll play the odds on this one.

I'm glad I never got the jab. Best of luck to those who might suffer any issues from it down the road.
