Q: Share your experience with any medical care and any
diagnoses you have received:
Out of numerous physicians at different levels, no one has reported the symptoms. I was treated like I was suffering from mental illness and the physical symptoms appear to be dismissed. No accurate reporting of how symptoms are connected to Pfizer shot on even one occasion. No treatment offered outside of blood pressure pills and referral to a Psychologist and Psychiatrist - anxiety medication. I do not have a familuial history of anxiety or depression and I have not had any struggles with anxiety or depression prior to the physical symptoms which occurred four days after the Pfizer shot.
Q;Where has your reaction been reported, and what was the
response?
(3x)Nurses a few days after the shot on three separate occasions, (2x) medi center doctor after the shot, numerous times to Primary Care Physician, (3x) Internal Medicine Specialist, 2 separate Emergency Room Physicians, 1 time - Neurologist.
Q: Is there anything that has helped, and have your symptoms improved?
The electric bolt nerve sensations through my limbs are not present to the same intensity as they were before.
Q: What do you wish others knew?
I am appalled at the lack of information related to dangerous side effects and lack of informed consent procedures. I am appalled and horrified at the medical communities lack of ethics and how medical professionals continue to encourage these shots. My viewpoint of the world we live in has been forever altered.
