After my second COVID vaccine, I started to notice intermittent, bilateral arm/ upper extremity/hand significant pain and weakness. This went on approx 1-2 weeks at which point I started to notice pockets of swelling in both of my hands between the metacarpals. I went to my PCP and had blood work done, which was not significant. A week later I returned and was recommended to complete additional blood work once experiencing strong symptoms. This came several weeks later and blood work revealed elevated RH factor as well as positive CCP level. My PCP said this was indicative of rheumatoid arthritis and sent me to a rheumatologist. The rheumatologist did additional blood work and made RA diagnosis. Both PCP and Rheumatologist mentioned that RA usually begins to show after a significant immune response, but are obviously unsure if it was directly due to the vaccine or not. I did experience a strong reaction to the second vaccine (typical reported symptoms which lasted approx 24 hours)

I had fever up to 101.5 despite Tylenol. I got so weak that I fell twice trying to get out of bed to go to the bathroom, and I couldn't get up by myself. I notified the research staff but since the usual questions were just the degree of fever, not whether it was before or after an anti-pyretic. And the questionnaire asked about fatigue that interfered with normal activities, but didn't capture the degree of weakness I felt. I'm concerned that if the FDA accepts this vaccine at this dose without a warning that someone living alone could be in big trouble. I'm not normally a weak person. I walk daily and do Pilates 3x/week. I had fever and weakness after COVID vaccine but not this bad. I'm a retired PH physician.
