Vaccine Injury of Lorene


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

Before I got the vaccine, I was a somewhat outgoing, articulate, eloquent person that had no problems with balancing or learning new things. My brain was very sharp. I could hold a conversation no problem and remember things. I could learn new things.

Describe the symptoms and the timeline of the reaction.

About a week after the second vaccine, I noticed a strange, tingling sensation in my right hand. I had a weak feeling in my legs. I was having problems with balancing. I could not stand without swaying, and having to grab onto some thing to steady myself. I develop severe tinnitus in my right ear. My heart rate became irregular, and I noticed a flip-flop sensation. But the worst was the cognitive and comprehension issues I was having. I struggled to have conversations with people because I couldn’t track with what they were saying to me and I’d forget words. So it was difficult to respond then. This led to embarrassment and a reluctance to engage in conversations with people. I became so self-conscious anytime I would have to talk to someone and I still struggle with this. Then I started having bizarre memory lapses. One day I was trying to reconnect my laptop to its docking station and could not figure out why my external monitor was not working. I totally forgot that it needed to be plugged into my laptop. I’ve had this set up for the last three years so I was well-versed in plugging my monitor back in anytime I took my laptop off the docking station. But that day I totally forgot about this. And I spent all day troubleshooting monitor problems. It wasn’t until hours later I realized the monitor was not plugged in. And I remember being slightly horrified that I forgot such a thing and wondered if I had Alzheimer’s. I had another memory lapse happened the other day. I have talked to my doctor about this. I had an MRI and I even saw a neurologist. All they could say was , they have seen these symptoms in people who got the Covid vaccine. But they seemed very hesitant to say even that much, like they were afraid someone might overhear them. I still struggle with problems with my legs feeling weak. I have terrible problems with my balance. But the cognitive problems I have are the absolute worst.

You’re not alone, you’re not the only one that suffers from Covid vaccine injury.
