Struggling bad about getting Covid Vaccine

[Fighttolive]

I"m on day 3 after my Pfizer shot, my arm is alot better.

But I am so stunningly sleepy, can't hold my eyes open, and I am cognitively also- asleep.

Its 11:41 am, and I'd like to soon pass out.

***
My 38 year old daughter is becoming extremely concerned about getting vaccinated. The risks of strokes, clots, migrating spike proteins, etc etc. She does not know what to do.

please feel better and take it easy!

I think I’ve decided to take my chances with NAC and quercetin and wait for novavax

@Rufous McKinney --- Oh, I'm sorry I missed it! I'm so happy for you getting your vaccine!

doing OK, considering. Crashing today it seems, from bad intestines at 4 am. Which I cannot account for.

Set aside Monday plans....

Plan G, instead.

@Fighttolive, im in same boat. i have gotten a lot better over the past year eating paleo and working on my gut, i can actually do stuff after work now! So worried i will slide back.

i think I already had covid, my whole family got sick the week before everything shut down, my kids teacher had it. If you get covid, you are vaccinated, getting the real thing is better than the vaccine. But just like the vaccine, natural immunity wears off to over time.

what is your nac protocol?

I don't think there is a remotely comparative risk between getting Covid and getting a vaccine. Miles apart.

Delta is going to sweep through. In my estimation being vaccinated is still excellent insurance against hospitalization or death.

I've had 2 doses of Modena and will get a booster as soon as it is approved and I'm eligible.

I've suffered less with an initial Covid infection, long-haul covid, and than a Delta variant. Than many have relying on vaccinations. Go figure.

Research is so important.

Dont forget ivermectin.

Also, it seems almost the day it was discovered NAC may have some beneficial effects with covid, the FDA started the process of banning it.

Actually they are projecting that it's less immunity from getting COVID rather than the vaccine not more.

I am still struggling with the decision to get the vaccine too. I don't want to lose any hard-fought gains with my ME. Besides, I am alone much of the time right now. But, depending on what happens with covid and vaccine mandates, I'm trying to decide which might be the "best"/least harmful to take.

It seems like all of the vaccines for covid contain some sort of novel technology. The novavax would be the closest to something 'old school', but even that is using a new adjuvant from plant saponins. Given that I have autoimmune diseases and even gluten cross-reactivity to most grains/dairy/eggs/etc., I wonder about my immune system creating some sort of reaction against the saponins. Which would be bad as they are in many different types of plant foods and food additives. @nerd any thoughts on this?

The censorship is very concerning. I don't understand why people on these med forums keep quiet about it. For some reason they want to inject everyone even children who are not at risk of developing heavy symptoms. I would not be surprised when we see mainly vaccinated children on the IC.

 

[TiredBill]

Children are developing Long Covid from Covid. And Long Covid in many ways looks indistinguishable from ME/CSF. And that's not a fate I'd wish on anyone. In contrast, vaccines are safe and effective.

What's concerning is the amount of Covid disinformation on the internet.

Covid kills.

I also got very sleepy for 4 days after my 2nd Pfizer shot.

Personally, I'm terrified of vaccines in general, and especially the covid vaccine. I've heard too many horror stories concerning other vaccines of symptoms that appear years later (or not much later), and I'm willing to admit they could possibly be conspiracy theories. I won't take the covid vaccine unless I'm forced. There's no reason for others who have had the vaccine to fear being around the unvaccinated, since they're protected.

Thats a good point @christiankatz

Yes there is a lot of it about! But I wonder if it makes much difference now. Over here in the UK the vast majority have been fully vaccinated so the mad stuff on the web has'nt had much effect. How is it in the USA?

 

[Rufous McKinney]

How is it in the USA?

We are seeing a renewed vaccination increase, as DELTA swoops in and the virus seems to be not going away.

Arguments- public, continue.

Well I hope you dont get it as badly as we did. Delta is very bad news.

 

[dylemmaz]

sounds like within the next two days fda is going to authorize booster shots for immunocompromised people in the usa. my second moderna shot absolutely floored me but i’m lucky i recovered just fine. are we immunocompromised enough to even need a booster shot??

 

[Rufous McKinney]

Well I hope you dont get it as badly as we did. Delta is very bad news.

Its pretty bad- especially in certain geographic areas of lower vaccination rates...but kids are headed back to school soon and thats the biggest Challenge it seems at the moment....and Delta is harder on little kids....

considerable angst about what to do about the kids....

 

[Rufous McKinney]

re we immunocompromised enough to even need a booster shot??

I"m a bit laughing- I bet the medical community would say no, that group doesntn count as immune compromised....
