I was hospitalized March, 2017, at hospital for a hernia and bowel obstruction w leukocytosis. I was given PPSV23 vaccine with an immediate reaction. Arm hard, muscle weakness, redness and pain. The weakness never went away, just grew worse with time. One month later is when terrible sweating and chills began, a bad sensitivity to light, intolerable to heat and to cold. Bouts of mood swings began. Bad mood swings I've never had. My hair started falling out with muscle spasms and twitches. These symptoms continued every month but getting worse with new symptoms compounding. In June, I was driving to a local restaurant and suddenly did not know where I was. I noticed terrible fatigue I had never had before. By end of September I had terrible facial swelling, eye swelling, shivers, boils, and a hive rash on my upper back, at the same time a histamine feeling all over my body with localized pain where the rash presented (I've a terrible penicillin allergy and have been hospitalized 2xs-I know histamine!!). Early October I had huge glands...cervical lymphadenopathy, brain fog, skin wasting, a distorted neck, chronic fatigue, unable to recall words or understand others, memory failure, choking on foods and drinks and was suddenly allergic to all foods, based on a skin allergy test. I have photos of this entire progression to support what I say and a medical record that is drowning me in debt to prove this...just to figure out what the hell is going on and for me to feel well. I'm a single mom. I can't afford to be ill. I saw an ENT who gave me a script for an EPIPEN. I switched my diet hardcore and was still reactive...hives on my face, swelling, edema, muscle stiffness, aches, weird pains, depression. For 3 months I was eating raw fruits, raw vegetables with water and BENADRYL at every meal and was still anaphylactic. For over 5.5 months I've had these problems and more while ingesting BENADRYL daily...and STILL REACTIVE! I've been in and out of hospitals since that shot, seeing Drs and now 3 specialists-Rheumatologist, endocrinologist and a new ENT and my GP. I hear possibly lupus, Sjogren's, RA but the ONLY blood test coming back is a low IgG2 antibody and high inflammation in my WBC. In January, 2018, my coworker came in w a flu. Days later I was debilitated for 5 days, unable to move. This was NEVER happened to me. My life has been HELL since that vaccine! I truly felt crazy and near death at times. No one seems to want to discuss this vaccine with me. I'm having a lymph node biopsy soon. I'm due to take the next shot this spring and I fear death will be upon me if I do. You all say to keep up on the shots but if no one helps me with this then what? Last Saturday, February 14, after near 6 months of daily BENADRYL and constant heart racing my anaphylaxis is gone. I decided to test my body and eat what I was allergy tested for. Guess who didn't break out? Guess who is eating all those foods again, AFTER MONTHS of reacting to them and everything else! I am so depressed because my life changed after that shot. I see it, I feel it-pictures and tests don't lie. Please help me. Someone help me! My brain and body doesn't feel the same anymore. All meds now give me rectal bleeding that I can no longer take anything-I'm also terrified to after this. Someone has to help me. Someone-God willing-HELP ME! I have lost faith in Doctors, in ALL MEDICINE and you, the FDA, our government. I had a normal life last March and now I am miserable.
