Timeline o First two weeks in August 2021 (Post second Moderna vaccine) I experience severe shoulder pain. (unusual for me). It lasts for two weeks and then goes away. o October 23rd 2021  shoulder pain returns, and I start getting terrible rashes on the backs of my hands and between my fingers. They keep me awake at night (I've never had problems with rashes in my life). o November 2021  I see a dermatologist who prescribes a steroid cream. December 22nd - Receive the Moderna booster. Rash returns on December 24th, near my left eye, back of hands and between fingers. o December 30th I test positive for COVID via one of the home tests. o Dermatologist advises me to apply cortisone cream to my hands at night and wear plastic gloves for 10 nights. o January 4th My ophthalmologist tells me to stop using cortisone cream because my eye pressure is up. I have glaucoma. She tells me to ask the dermatologist to prescribe Tacrolimus.  o January 6th Dermatologist calls in prescription. Walgreens finally has it in stock by January 8th. By then, the untreated rash spreads above my upper lip, below my bottom lip, neck and hands. It's beat red, stinging and itchy. Application of Tacrolimus is excruciating (like putting burn and itch on top of burn and itch. o February 20th My dermatologist does a patch test on me. It is discovered that I'm allergic to 18 different chemicals (all of sudden). Mind you, I've never been allergic to anything.  The substances on this list are really ordinary daily chemicals and hard to avoid: polyester, wool, plastic, rubber, latex, fragrance, disperse blue dye, nickel. There's so many is overwhelming. o Ingredients in my glaucoma drops contain allergens that I'm now suddenly allergic to. I had received clearance to use them via a patch test with an allergist back in 2013. Now, my dermatologist and I have to scramble to find out what I can use to treat my glaucoma, literally. Once you lose vision cells, they're gone forever. Treatment is really damage control so that you don't go bling. My treatment during the month of February is inconsistent because we're now going through step therapy.  There are very few options. I never had common allergies, but I had a hard time finding a drop that wouldn't give me blepharitis. o Now I'm on oral medication (acetazolamide) and that can compromise your kidney function and or give you kidney stones. This is a temporary drug as we are now talking eye surgery (many eye surgeries actually), and complications because there's a battery of eye drops that you must take after surgery. Drops that I can potentially be allergic to now. Cataract surgery afterwards is a given. Many follow up doctor visits will be required (so now there's a huge expense involved). On top of that, I will be out of work on disability for 12 plus weeks (6 weeks for each eye). I hope I have my job after that.   This has to be a result of both the second Moderna shot and the booster. They were the only change in my life. After the vaccines, this happened to me. My life is pretty awful now. Try buying a winter coat when you're allergic to polyester. I'm anxious every day about surgery and being on a medication that can potentially hurt my healthy kidneys. I can't knit or crochet anymore because I'm allergic to almost all yarn. This condition is all consuming and draining. I've become very depressed and almost hopeless (not like me at all). I long for the life this horrible condition has taken from me.        There is the potential for premature blindness and kidney failure if my Ophthalmologist and I can't find adequate treatment for my glaucoma, complicated by this new condition. I've gone to several doctors to treat this: Primary Care Physician, Ophthalmologist, 3 different Dermatologists and I'm scheduled to see a new Ophthalmologist for a second opinion this month. I'm also scheduled to see an allergist this month. I'm seeing my current Dermatologist tomorrow (second time this month).
