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

I was the healthiest I have ever been in my life. I was doing CrossFit 6 days a week and had started cycling 3 times a week. No issues what so ever.

Describe the symptoms and the timeline of the reaction.

First of all, after my first dose of Moderna, I passed out. They dismissed it as anxiety and the dr on hand confirmed that was the case. I searched endlessly on the internet and found nothing regarding people having negative reactions to the vaccine (I now know that information was being suppressed). Stupidly and ignorantly, I got my second vaccine, this time it was different. I did not pass out. However, within a few days I started noticing odd neurological differences. It got really scary when I started waking up early in the morning with hand tremors that would not stop. The hand tremors spread throughout my body. At one point it was so violent that I went to the emergency room thinking it was a seizure. I have been "diagnosed" with having anxiety. As a perfectly healthy person prior to this, I know that's total bullshit.

Describe the solutions that helped your symptoms

Nothing. Maybe time, but I still wake up with internal vibrations/tremors and it does not stop until I fully get out of bed.

Which solutions were not helpful?

Fish oil caused a massive reaction. Wellbutrin triggered an episode so severe that I went to the ER.

What would you like others to know?

Understand that there are some people that do not respond well to this. If you don't respond well, the medical community will not recognize/treat your issues. The best option is avoiding this situation to begin with. If you have existing allergies or mild reactions to prior vaccinations, DO NOT GET ANYMORE.
