I have numbness, tingling that seem to have stopped, so I started right initially after getting the shot in my right arm, I can feel it in the right side of my face that goes into my jaw, my eye, nose, and back to my ear, and then I noticed that was spreading. It is currently on and off in my leg and buttock, and right arm". Caller mentioned this booster was administered two hours ago, and that this is her third booster, since she has received two boosters prior to this one. It was also stated that Caller got the bivalent vaccine and she has had 4 shots of the original one prior and was fine with all of them.  She got this vaccine and waited 10 minutes at the pharmacy and felt ok and on her way home she started feeling the side of her face going numb, her eye, nose and into jaw and back to her ear going numb. Since she has been home that numbness has spread to the whole right side of her body. Not sure if should go to the ER or not. She took Zyrtec D for allergies today and has spinal cord compression due to degenerative disc disease. Had inflammation and is seeing a rheumatologist and her tests are normal, her c-reactive protein is normal and all the inflammatory markers are normal. She has not been diagnosed with autoimmune but she has widespread inflammation and not sure if it's due to the spinal cord compression. The numbness is really really, even her eyeball got numb.
