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

healthy athlete, 29-year-old male, no health issues. never went to doctors.

Describe the symptoms and the timeline of the reaction.

I had an initial reaction in the 15-minute window after my shot. my arm went numb for 5 minutes, and I was overwhelmed with a sudden doom feeling. This reaction quickly ended and I didn't overthink it.

4 days later is when I started to become dizzy. I have had 24/7 dizziness since the afternoon of 4/26/22. It feels like MDDS type of dizziness like I'm on a boat. I get daily headaches. I have spots in my vision. I have insomnia. I have brain fog/memory loss.

Describe the solutions that helped your symptoms

steroids help somewhat but symptoms come back after steroid taper is complete. Zyrtec used to help a bit but has stopped being effective. Ivermectin helped a bit but like steroids, symptoms returned after the 5-day course.

Which solutions were not helpful?
