Disease flare post vaccinations

5 Replies

Anyone else just felt sicker generally a few weeks after the second jab (AZ)? I had loads of weird symptoms about 4 weeks after (numb tongue, periods all over etc) and this week I am just so diseasy. I feel like my tolerance level has hit the ground. Last year I was doing so well in lockdown working from home etc it was like I didn’t even have scleroderma. Today I am a walking bruise, in so much pain I can’t even sleep. I feel like out of the variables I can influence the only one is I’ve had the vaccine. It’s either that or just a fluctuation that would happen regardless. I hope you lovely lot haven’t experienced the same, but do say if you’ve noticed generally being worse (and if/when you felt better!) :)

I had some weird symptoms and headaches about 2 weeks or so after 2nd dose but wasn’t sure whether it was down to that or something else, I was concerned about the headaches but they went within 4 days and haven’t had anything since so might have been

Dear Bear,

I am sad that you have had such a bad experience after your jabs, I would advise you to report this to the Yellow card Scheme which is the governments website for reporting adverse effects after having the vaccine ... You are not alone in these symptoms and those without underlying health issues have experienced them also ..... I wish you better asap .

Yeah I feel the same. Things that I was dealing with reasonably have all flared up again. Even my reflux n my mouth tightening n tingly. Raynauds def worse. Much more attacks. I really feel dread about the booster dose. Hope your symptoms settle down soon.

Dear Bear, I had my second AZ vac three weeks ago and have experienced a flare up of further tightening skin under my chin, arms and legs. Very uncomfortable and painful. I hope you get some relief soon, Ruby x

Thanks All - I seem to be settling down again now I hope you all are too xxx
