What was your life like before you received the COVID-19 vaccine?

I maintained a full time job (40 plus hours p/w) as well as taking care of 2 infants in diapers and 2 teen daughters. Have acceled in my occupation in the mental health field including two promotions. Since my second vaccination on 1/26/2021 (also Moderna) my health has taken a turn for the worse. for approx. the next 6 months i began experiencing chronic fatigue, excruciating pain and felt like i had the flu. the government then mandated health care workers be current on vaccinations, so on 2/4/2022 I received the booster by Phizer. from employee health. Ive since had to call in to work multiple times because of weakness in my legs and notably on my right side confirmed by a physical therapist and am currently on FMLA. i also experience inflamation in my joints, i am currently on prednisone and working with rhuematology . I have many of the same symptoms as my father who was forced into retirement, a direct result of his loss of muscle mass, and many other health issues he didnt have prior to his vaccination.
