Hi I've had fibro for a while now and I had some severe side effects from the COVID vaccine. It's made me seriously wonder about my fibro and question getting the booster since it was really rough with the first two...

Has anyone else had side effects from the vaccine or gotten the booster dose yet?

Hello @curtaincall‍, thank you for opening this discussion! Let me tag some other members who can possibly share their experiences.

Hi everyone, how are you today?

Have you gotten the COVID-19 vaccine? Which vaccine did you get? Did you have any side effects? Have or will you get the booster vaccine?

@curtaincall , I got the booster shot today for covid, and feel okay tonight, but I also had a lot of muscle pain after the second one, but after a month it went away. My doctor suggested injections, in my arms, but I held off and he said to try voltarin four times a day first. Either that worked, or it was just time. Hope you decide to take the shot, be safe from covid.

@Dandylu Thank you for sharing, I feel better knowing I'm not the only one who had a reaction to it! Maybe I can ask my doc about something for the muscle pain beforehand. Last time I took Tylenol before and after and it just wasn't enough. I'll have to give voltaren a try

@HelloKitty I started taking kratom when I was diagnosed with cervical dystonia, it means I have constant pulling of my neck and shoulder muscles. Botox is the primary treatment , 6 to 8 shots targeting muscles but its hit and miss. I told a friend about this and he told me about kratom, so I went to a kratom shop and talked to the owner. He learned I was an Army Veteran and sold me some capsules. Unbelievable the kratom knocked out the pain and relieved some of the spasms and pulling that was 5 years ago, and I am still taking it for chronic pain. I have found the vendors to trust and a fbook website to share experiences with others. Like all things kratom must be handled with common sense, and reading info on the web helps educate us all. IT IS THE ONLY THING THAT HELPS WITH MY CHRONIC PAIN

Yes I agree. Im on morphine and Hydrocodone/Acetaminophen and yours as well. I have some others also. If I want to work in the back yard, I am sleep mode if I set down. The next morning and at night is paying with great pain. Its a hard road in many ways. We have to keep going best as we can. Have a smile and good day to you. I have the stimulator too.
