Symptomtext

First Covid 19 vaccine administered March 2021. Starting ~ April 2021 (unfortunately cannot remember exact date) noticed tingling in right pinky toe. Shortly after noticed tingling in left pinky toe as well. Over time tingling progressed to involve multiple toes and then hands (symptoms in both hands and feet noted by June 2021). Severity of tingling waxed and waned throughout day. By August 2021 also noticed pain in right calf (burning, intermittent), and intermittent, short-lived, shooting, shock-like pain in single digit on left foot (observed when walking down stairs). Was evaluated at clinic on June 17, 2021 and had CBC/Diff, CMP, Cardiovascular risk assessment, Vit B6, Hemoglobin A1cL, LDL cholesterol, Lipoid panel with LDL/HDL Ratio, magnesium, phosphorus, TSH+Free T4, vitamin B12 and folate, Vitamin D levels checked - all WNL. Also spoke with OB/GYN as gave birth vaginally- no differentials given at that time. Referral to Neuro recommended. Moved cross country, saw new PCP. Had zinc, Vit B12, ESR, ANA, Intrinsic factor, Sjogren antibody panel, protein electrophoresis, UA, brain MRA, celiac disease panel, cervical radiographs, and lyme testing performed between August and December 2021 - all within normal limits. Had telemedicine consult with Neurologist January 17, 2022. Diagnosed with presumptive peripheral neuropathy. Spinal tap and EMG recommended, but have not been performed yet as would require travel and I elected to wait until weaning my infant to travel due to Covid. NO CAUSE OF PERIPHERAL NEUROPATHY HAS BEEN DETERMINED, SO I DO NOT YET KNOW IF RELATED TO VACCINE. Did not report until now as I recently read that peripheral neuropathies have been reported post vaccination. Currently, pain has resolved. Tingling in fingers and toes persists, continues to wax and wane, but is overall much more mild than it was previously. May be worse when dehydrated/after lying down.
