I had a number of negative things happen after the Covid vaccine but I have allergy and autoimmune issues. I got cellulitis from a bug bite- never had it before. I got shingles that took forever to go- I cannot take the shingles vaccine as I am allergic to ingredients in it. I got very sick and became allergic to 2 different antibiotics that I never had any trouble with and then had the 2 heart attacks and a stroke. I do not attribute the heart issues to the Covid vaccine but have had multiple health professionals question it. I worked through the pandemic with multiple families, 4 individuals with special needs- 2 of the 4 died and one was definitely Covid. I got Covid at the very end of the pandemic, was really ill for 1 day and semi miserable for several days and that was it. I took the shot because there is no way to know if you are a carrier and I was not going to expose my clients- I am glad I did or I would forever question if my client died from something I passed to him. It would haunt me but that's me.

I agree everyone isn't sure what to believe. But I have gotten covid shots and boosters. This is not the first time fir most of us our parents had to decide with Polio. It is everyone's own choice, not their kid's, Dr's. Or friend's. You have to decide what is right for you.

I did not notice a change in my heart health when I had CO-Vid 19 and pneumonia in September 2022 but my blood sugar readings went crazy for being high for many months before they got closer to normal range. Therefore the medicine used to fight CO-Vid 19 may cause trouble with your heart health but better to ask your physician I think.

I did seem to get lymphedema subsequent to getting my first vaccine. I’ve gotten all the recommended follow-ups. Seems like common sense to have better protection from something that killed over 1 mil people.

I've had all of the COVID boosters. No changes with my heart.
