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

Life was amazing. I was recently engaged. :) Enjoyed gardening, bike riding, surfing. Love the outdoors. No prior health conditions.

Describe the symptoms and the timeline of the reaction.

Woke up the following morning with feelings of weakness/numbness on right side of body, from head to toe. Very uncomfortable feeling in right torso. Twitching of right eye. As the days went on, I developed severe neck pain and pain in right side of my face. Tinnitus in right ear. Unusually cold right hand and right foot. Strange "electric-current-type" sensations that come and go. Twitching around the body that seems to originate below the surface of the skin. Insomnia. Derealization. Short-term memory loss. Menstrual cycle irregularities.

Describe the solutions that helped your symptoms

TIME CBD tincture (for pain/twitches/insomnia) Anti-inflammatory diet Intermittent fasting Stretching/yoga multiple times per day

Which solutions were not helpful?

I took doxycycline for 7 weeks, after testing positive for Lyme disease through IGeneX. No signs of improvement. I believe the doxy negatively affected my skin, and likely my gut. (It is important to note that the standard Lyme disease test run by my PCP came back negative, twice. Getting properly tested required quite large out-of-pocket expenses, for visits with a Lyme-literate doctor and for the testing itself. If you or somebody close to you struggles with chronic Lyme, this will come as no surprise. There are many disturbing parallels between the way Lyme and vaccine-injured patients are treated in our health care system. We could do so much better.)

What would you like others to know?

There is risk involved with these jabs that we are not being made aware of. We need to demand TRUTH and INFORMED CONSENT. There are various other preventative and acute treatment protocols for Covid that are proving to be effective. Why are we not using these protocols on a larger scale? A public health policy that relies solely on these vaccines is fraught with error. Under Emergency Use Authorization, there is no liability for vaccine manufacturers, and relying on our government to help, if something goes wrong, is laughable. Taking a dismissive or antagonizing stance against a vaccine-injured individual is more damaging than one might think. Do we ignore or make fun of cancer patients? Heart attack patients? Stroke patients? No, we don't. Why should it be any different for a vaccine-injured patient?
