LilFarmer: I have noticed so many posts on FR of personal experiences with adverse reactions to the vaccine and thought it would be helpful to put them all in one place. I am not trying to convince anyone to get or not get the shot, but I do think the other side of the story needs to be told so people can make an informed decision. These are the kinds of stories that never make the mainstream news.
I have permission to post these accounts, and there are about twenty more I am awaiting permission. I respectfully ask that people do not come on this thread to belittle these FReeper experiences, many have lost or have very ill loved ones, friends, coworkers, etc. All these folks could use our prayers.

We have the same issue with wife’s grandmother. 86 years old an walked 5 miles a day. Got the Pfizer vaxx, began having hemorrhagic strokes. Cannot get out of bed
- Jan_Sobieski
My mother and father took the first Moderna vaccine shot about six weeks ago. Within a week my mother went from a very active person in her mid 80s to an invalid unable to make it from the bed to the bathroom. She has progressively gotten worse to the point that she now looks like a little death camp survivor. We and her doctors expect her to die soon. It wasn’t an allergic reaction.
- fireman15
Just heard of a husband and wife died from it who were pro-vax.
- bray
I personally know of one PREVIOUSLY VERY healthy person, who passed the night of his 1st shot. I have “vax”d friends who are getting over their recent BREAKTHROUGH cases of China virus.
- Jane Long
One of our daughters works as a nanny. Being young and healthy, she decided to skip the shot. Her employer is a doctor and tried to encourage her to get the shot.
So last week, my daughter came down with COVID. (Mild case) She gave it to the kid who infected her vaxxed parents who are feeling pretty sick. So now, even though my daughter has an active case, she’s going back to work tomorrow to take care of the kid.

Just learned a friend’s father, healthy, in his 70s, got the Pfizer shot a few weeks ago and is in ICU dying of Covid now. That’s all the info I have. My neighbor also got Pfizer and a week later started suffering hemochromatosis. She eats no red meat, only fish and chicken so she has no idea what is going on.
- LilFarmer
My cousin’s son —healthy and in his thirties — stopped breathing right after he got the Moderna shot, but he was saved.
- Southside_Chicago_Republican
I lost three days at work, the 1st, 5th and 12th after the second Moderna shot…. Severe nausea and headache.
- fishtank
I also of people who died days after getting the vaccine. I know of no one who died from the disease that went around, a combination Flu A and a bacterial pneumonia.
A good friend got the shot 14 days ago, and he has yet to recover from the resulting sickness.
A close co-worker died 6 days after the shot.
Another is still in a coma in Montreal after his shot. He suffered a stroke.
- CodeToad
I just had a friend die 24 hours after getting the vaccine. A 52 year old male with no health issues. His death certificate says he died of cardiac arrest, which is the typical “Heart Stopped” report when no other condition can be found. There will be no VAERS report. He is not the first to die suddenly after the jab without a VAERS report.
- CodeToad
well, i know my next door neighbor who collapsed after the second dose, had to go to the ER, and was admitted to the hospital has buyer’s remorse ... AND my client who collapsed with chest pain and shortness of breath after the second dose but didn’t go to the hospital and soon thereafter had a stroke has buyer’s remorse as well ... (both are younger and healthier than me, too)
- catnipman
It’s happening already in my family. One sister-in-law had intestinal distress so bad, she was in tears. It lasted about 4 days, then her knee blew up one night. She went to the ER, got it aspirated and shot up with some corticosteroid and went home. The very next night, the next knee blew up. After some travails, she had the steroid shot into the next knee as well. She was put on a prednisone taper. Three weeks in, the knee acted up again. So they prednisone got ramped back up and she’s on methotrexate. Her liver enzymes had been high, but are now normal. If you thought that all this would have caused her to rethink her position on vaccines, you would be wrong.

A few weeks after I got the jab (J&J), I developed severe tinnitus (ringing in the ears).
At that time I also developed conjunctivitis. I have dry eyes but that usually doesn’t effect me except in the winter when the humidity drops. Did some research and found that Israel was reporting eye inflammation after vaccinations (Pfizer)
- lizma2
3 acquaintances that took the jab back in mid-June/early July are now dead.
The last one died last week Two of em were in petty poor health to begin with and died in early August. The last one was a 54 year-old male in decent health for his age. It took awhile to take him out, but it finally got him. As far as I know, none of em had previously had the disease.
- lgjhn23
I know a bunch. One of the guys I work with went from a strong supporter to a “I will never take another flu shot ever” because he got so sick.
- Clay Moore
My mother is in the hospital with something wrong with her blood. Dr. refuses to call me. Nurse is very vague. Mother’s doctor back in Jan. said there was nothing wrong with her. She hasn’t been on any meds or even baby aspirin. She was jabbed in April and now this.
- bgill
Immediate family member was forced to take it. Had several mini-strokes and seizures. In hospital for several days now.
I also have first hand information from medical staff in several hospitals they will leave their jobs before they take these drugs.
- TianaHighrider
2nd Mondera shot made me deathly ill, 5 months recovery time. Still weak. No way in hell I’m getting a booster.
- rstrahan
I personally know a D1 college athlete, 20 years old, obviously great physical shape. Stroke right after the jab. Will never play the sport again. A close relative, 49 years old, good health, no family history of heart disease about 2 weeks after the shot had a heart attack—PS life saved by a dog who alerted the children in the basement about the heart attack.
-Pappy Smear
I also am double Pfizer shot and I am seriously feeling regrets. My wife, my brother, and I got the shots at the same time. My brother, up to that time in relatively good health, died a little over a month late. Heart problems they said. Now I read a government report that myocarditis and pericarditis are two common side effects of mRNA so-called vaccines.
- hiddigeigei
My sister in-law 13-year-old niece died after getting the vaccine. She was in great health, but her mother was convinced they had to get the vaccine by the hyperbole news.
My 18-year-old niece had heart issues after taking the second dose of the vaccine.
- DEPcom
Too late for me. Got my 2nd shot monday and let me tell you, it definitely effed me up. My legs feel weak as hell and I’m out of breath going up just a flight of stairs. Oh yeah and another thing: My right eye has a “flash blindness” that won’t go away. You know when someone shines something bright in your eye like a flash bulb and it makes your eyes see white? That’s what I’m getting on the bottom of my right eye. I have no idea if this is all from the vaccine but I didn’t have these crazy issues before.
More strange stuff: I got a physical yesterday and my blood pressure was through the roof, severe hypertension and I’m not even fat. Never had high BP before. They measured me at 174/100.....180/110 is what my doctor called “emergency room level” and look how close I am. He said I’m a walking timebomb for a heart attack or stroke. He immediately put me on BP meds, I can’t believe it. That vaccine definitely messed me up.
- GrandJediMasterYoda
I’ve actually had 4 friends and acquaintances have tested positive. All of them fully vaccinated. Two had no symptoms and tested because they were exposed at their job and two who were fairly ill for several days. Another fully vaccinated friend with no history of heart problems has been in the hospital for over a week and they still haven’t been able to diagnose what is wrong.
-Jvette
My mother suffered a stroke the very day that she received her second shot.
-2111USMC
I know three. All had health problems, but were hanging on. A vaccinated brother of one of the three just developed what feels like to him a never ending charley horse in the back of his thigh. He is unable to walk. I’m sure it’s all a coinkydink. The wife of the brother developed a week long “transient global amnesia” right after her shot.
The weird thing is the guy who died stroked out in the car on the way to get his second Pfizer and never regained consciousness.

ransomnote: you are welcome to add your 'adverse event' experience with the vaccine to posts on this thread. I will assume all are not to be shared in a later thread like this one unless otherwise stated.

Why do you say that this is “pretty much correct” when neither of those links address these questions:
- is the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine fully approved for those over 16?
- are Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine and Comirnaty the same vaccine?
- are Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine and Comirnaty the same vaccine just with different names and perhaps packaging?
In fact, the first link you provided includes this statement: “The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted full approval to the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine for people aged 16 and older. The Moderna vaccine is expected to gain full FDA approval in the coming days. Unfortunately, FDA approval does NOT mean the COVID-19 vaccines are automatically added to the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP). “
Even your links admit full approval.

What compensation program is the “fully approved” Pfizer vaccine under, CICP or VICP?
It’s been under CICP which pays nothing, I’ve seen no evidence it’s under VICP, have you?
That is the issue I was addressing.

What’s your point? A vaccine can be fully approved and still not covered under those programs. Your first link says as much.
The discussion has been whether Pfizer vaccine is fully approved, not whether it’s covered under those programs.

I was responding to what moonhawk said;
“Chemically, yes, legally, no. The difference being that if you are one of the unfortunate ones who react adversely to the experimental drug, you have no legal recourse if you get the one that is still operating under the EUA. And that is the only one available here in the US.”
His point stands. Fully approved should put it under VCIP, is it under VCIP?

From the link you provided: “FDA APPROVAL OF COVID-19 VACCINES DOES NOT MEAN VICP APPROVAL Unfortunatley, FDA approval does NOT mean the COVID-19 vaccines are automatically added to the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP).”
You’re trying to make things up, that unless it’s a part of VICP, it isn’t ‘fully approved’ which clearly isn’t the case.
BTW, also from your link: “Right now the VICP does NOT cover COVID-19 vaccine reactions. We believe that’s going to change soon.”
What excuse will the anti-vaxxers come up when that happens?

> My coworker got it and a few months later his right arm has gone completely numb. No loss of strength or movement, just pins and needles.
Very similar for me, with a few more complications. Since about a month after the second shot, my right arm has very frequent pins and needles sensations, but very little loss of strength.
I’m 53 years old, and got fully vaccinated with Pfizer. No immediate issues other than soreness in the arm for a couple of days. About 2 months later, I was admitted to the hospital for five days with pneumonia, although I suspect it was triggered by clotting. At the hospital, they noticed that my liver enzyme (bilirubin) levels pretty high, and they asked if I was a heavy drinker (I’m not). It took about a month for my lungs to clear up fully.
I’d never been seriously ill before. I’m extremely opposed to getting the booster shot. My wife and I know a couple of old women who had a stroke and a heart attack a couple of days after getting the booster, and a couple of old men who had fatal heart attacks a few weeks after getting the second shot.
I tried to talk my 15 year old daughter out of getting the vaccine, but in the end she took it... not because she was afraid of covid-19, but because being unvaccinated was too restrictive to here personal freedoms. I pray that she doesn’t regret it in the future.

I don’t blame you for not wanting the booster after all that. Yikes. Sad about the older people you know who died from it. So far my FIL’s memory care has not pushed the shots. He has vascular dementia, and I am concerned any blood clots would lead to a stroke. The facility has about half vaxxed and half unvaxxed residents and staff.

Adding a new post, from datura:
“I unfortunately need to relay some negative vax results to you from two of my mom’s friends.
They received their booster shots two days ago - both are 86 - and neither of them are ambulatory at this point. Full on Covid symptoms, body aches, pains, sever chills, unable to get out of bed.
I’m praying that they survive.”

“
Immunized, as it were, in Feb /March. First time Covid infection was a rough weekend in May after immunized cloth masked spouse traveled through four airports in three days and brought it home, sick sick Friday night, Saturday, Sunday, headache, horrible tearing eyes, neck pain, everything tasted like dirt. MONDAY MORNING, Forty five minutes after getting single ivermectin paste dose, tearing stopped, head cleared.
Second was a road trip, just two weeks ago, visited my brother for 8 hours of discussing the world over a bottle of Bushmills, then a marathon drive from GA to Colorado. He, one nephew, and one niece tested positive three days later after being sick. I got a milder case, but rapid worthless test was negative, saliva Covid test positive. By the time i got results , had already self quarantined, new to the state, and was much less sick. Except for persistent occipital pain.
Vaccine combo didn’t make much difference. Spouse says “you need boosters, you don’t get immunity”.. I SAID I’M VAXXED, SICK TWICE, AND DONE WITH IT.”

“ My father in law is a very healthy 87YO. He’s an italian immigrant who came to America, legally, in the 50’s, with $20 in his pocket. He worked night and day, owned businesses, bought real estate and is now worth millions, though he and my mother in law live humbly. He’s also a staunch Conservative who loves President Trump and came here to be American, not to exploit America. The dude still works every day- and even goes to his nursey on Christmas Day out of habit. Except for bypass surgery about ten years ago he’s a healthy dude and is never sick. He took the vaccines in March (Pfizer i believe) and everything was fine. He woke up this morning with massive pain in his shoulder and back. He called the ambulance who took him to the hospital and did tests. He has water in his lungs- pneumonia basically. He had not been sick, slowed down nor did he have any symptoms leading up until today. The difference? He got his booster shot yesterday.”
