I received the H1N1 vaccine on November 5, 2009. Three days after the shot I felt like I was poisoned, I actually felt like I had poison running through my body with violent tingling  and vibrating. I visited my primary care doctor about 5 times in one week telling him about  my symptoms and that I thought I was having a bad reaction to the H1N1 vaccine he did not believe it was a reaction from the vaccine. He prescribed me XANAX for anxiety. I also suffered from fatigue, loss of appetite upper body neuropathy (and lower, but I have had that symptom for many years because I suffer from peripheral neuropathy), brain fog, unable to concentrate, vertigo, the sensation of racing in my head. One week later my insides were shaking uncontrollably and so intense that I had a full blown panic attack. My husband took me to the hospital emergency room. I explained to the doctor on call that I felt my insides were vibrating and burning and I felt like I had been poisoned. He ran a few tests on my heart and blood and told me he did not believe it was a reaction from the H1N1 vaccine and that I probably had a "little cold" (with no actually cold symptoms?) and sent me home with no reason or cause for my symptoms.? Only a $295.00 invoice that I'm having trouble paying. On top of seeing my GP many times over that month, I also saw an ENT, ophthalmologist, dermatologist and neurologist (at the suggestion of of my GP). Only my neurologist would confirm that this could be a reaction to the vaccine. We are both convinced that all my symptoms are directly related to that horrible vaccine. Today, thank goodness, I am overall about 80% better, however I still suffer from a few of the symptoms off and on they include: Ear "fullness" feeling and pain, panicky/nervous and anxious, vibrating, racy feeling, neuropathy down my neck, back and arms, dizzy/vertigo, brain fog, blurred vision, rash, headaches and any other new symptom that may pop up. I have always been an enormous supporter of vaccinations; I received my seasonal flu shot every year for over 20 years and told everyone I know that they should get it. Now, I will strongly discourage everyone I know from getting any flu vaccine. I regret getting the H1N1 vaccine and will certainly never get another vaccination again. I have missed out on 4 months of my life. 4 months that I could not do anything with my children and my family. Four month of my life I will never get back. Fair enough, I received the vaccine of my own free will and knew there may be side effects but I was never informed of this serious side effect that, to my knowledge, effects 1 in 10,000 people. I should not have been denied proper care after the vaccine. I was in the ER days after the vaccine, yet they still said it was probably anxiety and maybe a little cold. Before the government went on this big bulk immunization spree all health practitioners should have been made aware of how to treat those suffering side effects from the H1N1 vaccine. Instead I was left to feel like I was either dying or crazy with no one to help either way. I've spent almost 4 months of my life feeling the sickest I have ever felt, scared beyond belief and having to juggle my kids, husband, work and home. Not to mention the money I spent on doctor visits, tests, medication and supplements. Someone should be held accountable. There certainly should be some kind of compensation for all my doctor visits, co-payments, physical and emotional trauma, take-out dinner order, and most importantly time lost as a productive mother, wife, daughter,  employee and all around well focused human being. This time lost will NEVER be recaptured. I am extremely disappointed in our government and health care system for allowing this to happen. Every person getting this vaccine should be made aware of ALL the side effects and reactions and most importantly ALL health care practitioners should be trained on how to recognize and treat the adverse reactions.
