Pfizer # 1: FK9414
I’m 42 and I have an auto immune disease called M.E (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis). The main symptoms are Chronic Fatigue and a general feeling of being unwell. I was managing my symptoms and living relatively well; being a Mum to my two children, running my Wedding & Events floral business, enjoying forest walks with the dog, doing yoga and loving life.
My Doctor had advised me for the last 11 years not to have any vaccine at all. The concern being that they may trigger a relapse of my illness. I had decided not to get the covid vaccine until mandates came in otherwise I wouldn’t be able to go on-site to restaurants and wedding venues to set up for clients. After years of working my butt off to build up my successful business I would lose contracts with venues as a preferred supplier. The final straw was when my 7 year old daughter broke down in tears because I was banned from her school trip to the lake for not being vaccinated. My Doctor apologetically showed me the MOH form stating there were NO exemptions unless you had a reaction to your first vaccine.
So, on the 30th of November 2021 I got my first Pfizer vaccine. Two hours later severe fatigue hit. I started to go downhill and went to bed early. I woke up crying from the burning pain running through the left side of my body. The next days blurred together with vertigo, sweats, tremors, and body spasms. I often woke with numbness in my left jaw, arm, and foot. The constant pain running up the back of my neck into my skull was so intense, the pressure would build up and culminate in vomiting. I was scared of having a stroke.
For months the vertigo and relentless pain were so bad I could not stand, and only moved between the bed and the couch. My 10 year old daughter had to help me bathe and my husband set up a stool for me in the shower so I wouldn’t pass out from standing.
I had the usual M.E symptoms – body pain, chronic fatigue, brain fog and nausea but also developed new symptoms that I’ve never experienced before. These have been quite scary. They include sporadic chest pain, and a weird feeling like my heart is turning/fluttering which reminds me of how my babies felt kicking in my stomach, except it’s my heart. I had an itchy, stinging, immuno rash up my neck and through my scalp for 4 months which drove me nuts. I had body numbness and would wake with blood in my mouth every morning. I can be fine one minute then suddenly tremors start out of nowhere – I often drop things and I feel like an 80 year old woman.
My children say I have a new language as my speech often gets mixed up. With my Mum strongly advocating for me, my Doctor applied for a temporary exemption for my second vaccine which to her absolute surprise was granted! My Doctor told me she hadn’t heard of any other doctor’s application being granted for their patients including anaphylaxis and heart problems. I am slowly improving with the help of acupuncture and Directional Pain Release (a form of chiropractic) It has drained my lymph glands and reduced swelling of my brain.
Six months on I still can’t stand for long or walk far without feeling faint or my heart doing weird things. I miss the forest. I haven’t been able to work much, so my business is currently turning all work away. I am so incredibly angry with the MOH for ignoring medical professionals’ concerns for their patients.
It has taken ACC 6 months of letters, phone calls and much of my GPs time to finally decline my claim. The Government gave me no choice, yet they refuse to accept responsibility for the outcome. The mental trauma has been just as damaging as the physical.
I have been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia from the Pfizer vaccine and this is documented in my medical records. MedSafe and CARM reports have been made.
I wanted to share my story to help advocate for the M.E. community. Many people with M.E have suffered adverse reactions to the vaccine.
I have found some relief from using CBD oil, a mushroom oil, Vit B12 injections and an adrenal gland tonic.
