I took the Pfizer last May. A few days later, during my sleep, I could feel the nerve across my stomach as if it were a wire.
About 2 weeks after the shot, when I would sit at home (relaxing), the skin on my stomach would feel like someone was drawing lines on me.
At 2.5 weeks, I took a bath and was in the tub for an hour. When I got out, I had extreme pressure around my entire waist. The nerves on my side were 'crunched' up and would rub against each other while I walked.
I was up until the next morning and I went to the hospital. Later that day the nerves under my shoulder blades felt pancaked together and also like they were trying to tear apart.
For an entire week, I could not sit or lay. The only thing that I could do is pace while extending myself vertically so my nerves wouldn't rub up against each other. I was not sleeping. I could try to prop myself awkwardly against my headboard but it didn't work too well. I ended up going on a lot of walks in the dead of night just to keep moving so the nerves wouldn't crunch together (stretching them up while walking).
All I did at home was look online for answers. I was able to find people who were also having problems and I was able to get in touch with doctors who are treating these injuries with the same things that they are treating people with Long Haul Covid.
No one has an answer. I have tried many different things and I have found two that kind of help. However, to this day, I still have nerve pain on my side that either radiates across my stomach or up my back. It's been 9 months.
If you have any advice, please let me know. In addition, if you know of someone who can specifically address this, please let me know as well. All the doctors I go to are of no help.
