Within one week of getting the shot, I started having severe epigastric pain. I started having diarrhea, and was unable to get out of bed for three weeks. The diarrhea lasted 6 to 8 weeks. And the fatigue became worse and worse. I had multiple days where I could not get out of bed. And the episodes made it hard for me to breathe because I was so weak. I’ve had bad days on and off for the last two years. I have to be careful about how much stress I put my body under if I want to avoid an episode of fatigue. The fatigue is not a sleepiness. It is physical fatigue, and I am unable to get up off the couch or out of bed when they occur. The epigastric pain lasted for about 4 to 5 months. When I finally was able to find a doctor, willing to do some test, they found that my liver was inflamed, my A1c and cholesterol had spiked. I am still having problems with my cholesterol two years later. It also put me into menopause. I have had severe anxiety since I received the shot. I finally had a nurse practitioner who was willing to listen to my story. She ended up diagnosing me with multi system Inflammatory Syndrome.
