She stated she had a lot of fatigue triggered by the third dose, a lot of pain kind of like myalgia or arthralgia. She also mentioned problems in his hand feeling numb gradually after the third dose. Caller also mentioned her hands are so in pain or numb, that sometimes she drops her phone and can't hold anything. She also mentioned her sleep is disrupted because of pain, that life is not going on well, because pain comes even if she's sitting or in a resting position. Caller also mentioned the problem with this side effect could be that the chemicals in the vaccine have not been studied enough for the body to receive them 3 or more times. She also mentioned going over the limit of this chemicals might be what causes side effects, which are unbearable, and it might be a bigger problem when another booster or the omicron based vaccine is required. She mentioned she didn't like stopping everything for getting the vaccine and that she's afraid to get next dose. She finally mentioned one of her doctors told her not to get the next dose. Caller mentioned the problem with this side effect could be that the chemicals in the vaccine have not been studied enough for the body to receive them 3 or more times.
