Clinical narrative: I started feeling random sharp "nerve stabs." I was walking and felt a bit odd just because I almost immediately tasted a metal taste in my mouth and commented on it and something seemed "off." As I kept walking it off, the pharmacist came to check up on me but I was still trying to figure out what was wrong. Over the next 15 minutes, I had a "heavy knee" feeling under both knee caps at the same time, tingling on the bottom of both feet at the same time like they were placed against a jet and both jaws tightened in one location...not at the TMJ but lower....like where my jaws misaligned from the accident. And then heavy eye brows would hit. And they wouldn't stay like this. It would come and go. Come and go. Not in seconds but 10 minute intervals or something? But I definitely was starting to feel more "nervy." Not prickly. Not pain. Just random sharp here and there or feeling like I could feel a nerve "wake up" here and there. Also, my hips/pelvis. On both sides at the same time they would not ache but get tight or say HI in a weird way but more towards the glute/pelvis region; it was an odd location. Also. My lower back was tight. It got really tight. That was the most annoying thing. It stayed tight. Also, my right shoulder/neck that had been locked up and inflammed from a flare-up...the pain disappeared just like my head pain. (The nerve issues sometimes felt like when I took rizaptriptan the first few times and I could feel the nerve then too.   Due to being used to weird nerve issues since the accident, I was concerned but not enough to go to the hospital and just wanted to wait it out. I had plans of going home and working out and doing my therapy and stretches.   I got home and within 45 minutes of the vaccine my face was starting to feel cold. I was feeling nervy all over. And then my spinal cord lit up, just once, like electrifying....not painful....but like electricity....like nerve. A large section of it just lit up and then that was it. I didn't have any odd movements with it. It just lit up.   Also, my head. There was a spot on the top of my head near the "soft spot" that I kept feeling a nerve burst. Like, as if I could feel the tendrils of the end of a nerve. It would just light up once and stop. Then light up and stop. It had stopped by the time I went to bed.   I worked out and had no issues. I haven't had any more spinal cord issues. I went to my scheduled accupuncture appointment today and it settled some of what was still in my hands. I worked all day as well in retail with no issues. I haven't had any more issues with the "heavy feeling" and my lumbar region was fine by bedtime. My feet are fine now. I am having nerve issues now but it's hard to say if it's my normal issues or still aggravated by the vaccine.   I'm having zero flu symptoms or anything from the vaccine they reported I may have. My arm at the injection site has no welt, redness, I can't find it, and is sore but it's like being hit by a softball. On the pain scale I'm used to: it's a 1/10.   I really do live with horrid chronic pain now.
