My concern is the Pfizer Covid vaccination because it gives me a leg rash - Livedo reticularis, which worsens each time and never goes away it is not itchy but results in a very dry skin. Does anyone know if there is a different brand available? I had no problems with AZ?

Symptoms I experience daily: livedo reticularis, pain in my shoulders, ribcage, back muscles, breast bone, hands, knees, feet. I get swelling in the ball of the foot; my whole right foot is painful while on the left foot I get pain and sweeling on the ball of the foot and heel pain.

I had mild occasional livedo reticularis on the upper body, legs and arms, and petechiae on the arms and upper body, headache attacks, increased thirst over months that did not react to drinking, extreme brain fog after eating (especially breakfast), and malaise after cognitive and physical efforts.
