Clinical narrative: She got her vaccine, she had nothing right when she got the vaccine.  Once she got home and as the day progressed she was having some soreness in the are of the vaccine, which she understood.  When she went to bed that night she was feeling kind of achy.  She normally gets up to go to the bathroom, and got up once, and between 8-9 AM woke up and tried to push herself up on her pillows and not able to do so.  She reached for her cane, and wanted to swing her legs over to the side of the bed and was not able to do that.  She was trying to put weight on the cane and she fell to the ground.  She could not move her legs.  She does not know how long she was there perhaps 1-2 hours.  She was starting to get some movement and was able to crawl to the bathroom and use it.  Then she used her cane (which she does not typically use), she was afraid to lie back down and just sat up in a chair.  Then she eventually was able to move to the couch in the living room and sat there.  She was not even able to take her dog out until the evening time as she had no strength in her legs.  She wobbly trying to get to the bathroom.  She fell into a deep sleep while on the couch and woke up around 5-6 PM, knocked her out.  She still hadn't had anything to eat or drink as she was not able to get it.  She was able to get dressed and walk to the elevator and took the dog out for a walk, nervous for fear of falling.  She came to her apartment.  The next day she was not feeling herself, fuzzy in the head, didn't feel right.  She felt like for the rest of the weekend.  Her legs were getting stronger but still wobbly.  She was not her usual self, and afraid of falling.  She lives a lone.    The following week she started calling and leaving messages, and has virtual visits coming up to discuss the situation as she does not know what to do.  Her PCP suggested to see an allergist specialist, which she has an APT for that (May), and be tested for vaccines.   She does not want to get the 2nd vaccine.    When she was younger she would always get sick after getting the flu vaccine and stopped getting that vaccine.    Her former PCP told her to ask for a flu vaccine without preservatives (mercury).  She then started to get it that way as she has asthma and recommended to get that vaccine, and never had a problem with that.    She did research the Shingrix vaccine that there is a mercury in it.  She did have a reaction to the 2nd moderna vaccine and had an identical reaction to the Shingrix vaccine, but not as severe.  Her daughter stayed with her after that vaccine as she knew there was a stronger reaction with that.  She helped her get out of bed, and go to the bathroom, etc.  She did have the booster and did have a similar reaction, but  not as bad.  The Shringrix has been the worst reaction of all of them.  She was not able to move her legs for at least 2 hours where she laid helpless on the floor.  She had residual that lingered throughout that weekend that followed.    She contacted all of her doctors at that time, her PCP, intergrated medicine, and Neurologist and has upcoming APTs with all.    She would like some information as to why this is happening, and has given her cause for her to pause and go forward with other vaccines.
