77 Idiopathic Neurology
 
I am a retired accountantvand teacher from rural South Australia.

I woke up after my 2nd astrazenecca jab with a numb torso front and back. I went to my GP who sent me for blood tests CT scans of my brain and torso. Nothing adverse revealed so l ended up with a neurologist. He requested MRI of brain an spine and further blood tests. No firm diagnosis except that l have no cancer, MND or MS. Very painful torso with similar to MS hug, tops of legs and feet numb. Fierce stabbing pains to rib cage, unsteady on my feet and likely to fall to the right and just fall over if l lean backwards. Nauseous and giddy if l look down like refuelling car. Pain and disability intense but varies whenever. On targin and indep. Very incapacitated like filling the dishwasher as if l bed over l fall. I am a diabetic (2) but that is under management.

So where to from here? What will happen? Is remission to extreme of a wish?

This sounds like it might be--
 
--an onset or variant of Guillain Barre Syndrome, which can very rarely happen after vaccination or after an infection (bacterial or viral); it is basically an autoimmune molecular mimicry reaction. It can be serious, but there are treatments.

See:

Guillain-Barre syndrome following COVID-19 vaccines: A scoping review - PubMed.

Welcome, Ozfrog44!

So sorry you've had these symptoms. They might have no connection to the vaccine but then again they might.

You should definitely look into the drugs you've been taking and give special attention to the dosage and possible interactions with other drugs. For instance, the Targin you mention has quite a few possible adverse effects and interactions:

Targin Advanced Patient Information - Drugs.com

Endep can cause problems too:

Any drug (or vaccine) can cause problems but some drugs need more careful watching than others. Hope you'll find some helpful answers soon!

OP, welcome

GBS is not rare from the vaccines which are all experimental. There are many issues that are being reported from those doing the shots.

I would be loading up on Vit C, Vit D, Zinc and other antioxidants to help to calm and reduce what you are going thru.

I've used Inosine and reported that here long before any covid issues. I don't have issues but Neuropathy has been around a long time. I've been taking Grape Seed Extract for many years and have talked about this supplement here for a long time.

OP: Curious about what the 77 Header means. Perhaps you'll come back to let me know...
