Possibly link to vaccine

For the past 4 years, I wake up in pain. And today it’s no different. The time line adds up to when I took the Covid shot. July 15 2021, next morning I woke up with my chest swollen and heart racing, thought I was having a heart attack. Lasted 5 days with 3 trips to the hospital which they didn’t do anything and told me to wait it out. The hole time I felt like I just did an intense workout and long jog my heart was racing. 

When it ended on the 6th day and finally got some sleep, I woke up with bell palsy, at first I thought I had a stroke. My left side of my face just hung and eventually it goes away, on November 15 2021 was the day I won’t forget. I woke up and couldn’t move. The horrible pain I was in from my lower back down my left leg; my life changed on this day and not for the best.

Made my way to the hospital, not much they could do for me, they told me to go home and if I poop myself to return. I had no family doctor. Could barely walk due to pain from my lower back through my groin down my legs.

Fast forward 3yrs with many trips to the walk in clinic and hospital always telling me the same thing until I poop myself there isn’t anything they can do for me. I finally meet a doctor that just opened a walk in clinic and took me on as a family doctor out of pity. By this point the pain had progressed to my arms and hands as well. With pain and numbness, weakness in feet and hands and sharp pains from back through groin to legs and arms. Started gabapentin, telmisartan and mild pain relievers, t4s. She ran lots of tests, MRI, X-rays, CT scans and they all came back normal pretty much. One doctor told me I was faking at my family doctors clinic. At this point in my life, I talked with my partner, barely walk or move. Go to sleep in pain. Wake up in pain. I called Ontario health and ask to start MAID. (Medical assistance in dying). This is not a life I could handle anymore. Was told by MAID representative that I had to try pain management first before I qualify. And told my new doctor about this so I was referred to one and said I would wait 1 yr to see if they could fix me or make the pain bearable. Before I pursued MAID further.

By this point I also use a cane, fall over easily and have tumbled down the stairs way too many times to count. My partner is wanting to invest in a walker for me as well.

It’s been 8 months since I requested MAID, pain meds have progressed to two types of morphine, fast and slow released ones. The pain hasn’t gotten any better, just worse. Everyday is a chore to get up but I have 3 kids and bare through it. Since this has happened we have had to live off Ontario works. My partner is at home taking care of me and our toddler at the same time.  We got into a co-op for living. Hard with these times making no money, raising 3 kids, and can barely move. In pain from the moment I wake to the moment I eventually pass out.  Most of my days I just lay there in pain while the minutes pass. No I am not asking for money! Have to make that clear.

Not sure what’s wrong with my body, pain from my lower back…through my groin down both my legs. And both my arms. My feet and hands have pain and numbness. Can feel hot and cold but not how hot or cold they are. 

I have been referred to a neurologist and could take another 2 years wait.

The pain management I was referred to denied treatment because they don’t know what’s wrong with me.

Not sure if the Covid vaccine I took did this to me, MODERNA COVID-19 mRNA-127.

I am lost, depressed and in pain. My 4yrs is coming up and coming close to the 1 year I promised my partner. Not sure what I can do about what’s wrong with me or if anyone else is experiencing these symptoms. I am posting this here in Reddit because maybe there is light at the end for me or not.

I am a 42 male and smoke cigarettes.(20 per day) and have asthma

Thanks for taking the time to read
