Q: What was your life like before you got the vaccine?
I was an active, full time Anesthesiologist. An avid cyclist, I would frequently ride 15-20 miles at times after working a full day; intermittently going to the gym for cardio and weight training; walking and hiking. I enjoyed fly fishing with my daughter and her beau, and traveled regularly. I could read and/or do multiple computer, work or home tasks for hours without issue.
Q: Would you like to share your reason(s) for getting the vaccine?
I have always believed in the value of vaccines. My work site required that all staff get vaccinated against Covid, and I complied, even though there was mounting evidence of problems. I felt that the risk of serious Covid outweighed the risk of the vaccine.
Q: What was your reaction, symptoms, & timeline?
After my first shot (a batch that was considered one of the BAD ones), I had minimal reaction: arm soreness and I felt slightly out of it. After my second jab, however, it was a completely different story. I had been in the middle of an episode of back pain, a recurrent history for me, but I was fully functional, and it did not sideline me at all. Concurrently, the day after the vaccine, I was set to have scalp cancer surgery, and the Dermatologist thought that the recent vaccine dose would pose no problem. For the procedure, I could barely lie still on the reclined chair due to almost unbearable back pain, which I attributed only to my inherent condition. I had a very unfortunate result with the cancer surgery with poor healing, and then the cascade started. Over the subsequent two weeks I developed multiple problems, which are what led me to consider that everything was vaccine related. Not only was my back bad, but multiple other joints became painful also: hands, wrists, knees and hips. Very loud constant bilateral tinnitus (ringing in the ears) began. I realized that the brain fogginess I was experiencing was also related. Then I came to recognize that the malaise I was feeling was not residual from my surgery, but was persistent and worsening. I found that if I exerted myself, physically or mentally, I would become fatigued, and I would need at least a day to recover. I develop POTS on top of everything, although it was variable and intermittent. My pre-existing peripheral neuropathy in my feet also worsened dramatically. About a month or two later I developed double vision.
Currently, despite seeing multiple physicians and trying many different treatments, I am essentially no better, now noting my 2 year “anniversary” this week. After one episode of Covid (I have had 2 since jabbed) I even had a setback with worsening symptoms. I have had to retire from my Anesthesia practice. I can no longer ride my bicycle due to my cognitive problems, slowed processing and fatigue. The most I can physically do is walk about a block or two in order to avoid the post-exertional malaise. If I work (small chores) or exert myself or concentrate too long I become exhausted. The cognitive issues are constant and variable, as is the fatigue, and I am quite limited as to what I can do on a given day. I try to stay positive, but as you all know, at times this is very difficult.
Q: Tell us about any tests, diagnoses, and/or Medical Care received:
Essentially most studies were normal, including an MRI of the brain. Nerve conduction showed severe peripheral neuropathy with small fiber demyelination. Sleep study revealed mild OSA. While basic neurologic exams were normal, my 4 hour neuropychologic assessment showed clear cognitive decreases after 2-3 hours. I have been seen by neurologist(s), cardiologist(s)(pacemaker implanted), ophthalmologists including a neuro-ophthalmologist (ocular nerve palsy likely due to local vascular problem). Also being seen in a university Covid Recovery Clinic (nothing new to offer), and currently we are 'watching' my new lambda light chain gamma globulinopathy (blood disorder) hoping it doesn't morph into myeloma.
My main diagnoses are myalgic encephalomyelopathy/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS). I have also been having diffuse muscle pains (myalgias). Some of my doctors diagnose post-covid syndrome (long-covid), and some acknowledge the possibility of post-vaccine injury. Apparently there is no medical code for the vaccine injury, so they do not get paid unless the diagnosis is accompanied by an accepted ICD10 code.
Q: Where has your reaction been reported, and what was the response?
I personally entered my condition into the VAERs database. I have heard no reply whatsoever.
Q: Are there any treatments that have helped or hurt your health?
I have been prescribed multiple medications and supplements and I do not feel that anything has really helped me. I have also been following FLCCC protocols, and have taken ivermectin without improvement.
Recently I have started with red light treatments. I believe the red light is helping my neuropathy, while the near infrared will likely require more therapies to help the the brain fog. I plan to start taking methylene blue.
Honestly, it gets quite tiresome to continue to try so many different therapies, but I guess there is no alternative.
Q: Have you had Covid before?
I had the covid infection twice after my 'vaccination'. In March I got pretty sick on a Thursday, started FLCCC meds, yet was concerned about waiting over the weekend in light of my asthma history. I found a private medical service to prescribe and administer the monoclonal antibody, which helped me turn the corner and I recovered thereafter. In October I again got infected after returning from Europe, followed FLCCC protocol, and got well quickly.
Q: What do you wish others knew?
I wish that more people could become aware of the evil that has been forced upon us all, here in the USA and globally. I wish the main stream media and tech were not able to censor so much good, helpful information and truth about Covid and the vaccine.
As a physician I am ashamed of what the house of medicine- organized medicine- has been a party to in promoting and delivering this toxic spike protein. This must be stopped!
