I can empathise Iain. My readings almost doubled over the 6 weeks since my vaccine and I am now on medication. If you mention the possibility of the vaccine causing this, the doctors/nurses don't want to know. I also quickly developed an ear problem. The deafness is slowly resolving itself but I still have tinnitus. I'm not sure if I could feel safe having a vaccine again.I was diagnosed T1D last October shortly after my 2nd vaccine jab. Aged 44 at the time and no family history of diabetes I wondered if the vaccine had triggered my diabetes as within days of the jab I suffered from symptoms of what I now know to be diabetes - thirsty, weight loss etc - my vaccine nurse was not concerned at the time and neither was my doctor until my weight was monitored over 5 - 6 weeks. Eventually a blood test was done and I was admitted to hospital for 4 days which resulted in my diagnosis of T1D. Neither nurses or Doctors were bothered about my concern that the vaccine may have been a trigger and this has me worried about whether to accept my invitation for a further vaccine jab a year later?
I appreciate that the vaccine has prevented illness and death around the world, but I'm worried that my questioning of my illness has been dismissed as nothing to worry about and that I could have developed T1D at anytime in life.
To further give me cause for concern I was diagnosed with DVT in September this year and am having to take blood thinners for the next 6 months - I don't smoke and my diet is low fat, yet despite living a healthy lifestyle doctors dismissed my concerns again and sent me on my way.
Does anybody in the medical profession take note of unusual side effects or changes in peoples health after having the vaccine? I have found monitoring my blood glucose and taking my insulin stressful over the past year, but fortunately hadn't needed to make any dietary changes but worry about further vaccines for covid as I have not had my questions answered satisfactorily.
So sad... my Mum is in a home now... just had her 4th booster she has alzhiemers & vascular dementiaThe doctors just say "I doubt it was the vaccine" if you develop issues after having it. My dad had tingles in his arm after having his and he kept saying to the doctor about it but being ignored. Soon after that he had a stroke. It was the astrazenica one he had. I also worked in care for almost 10 years and when the elderly were having their first jabs we lost 11 strokes and heart attacks mainly. They were dropping like flies and I've never ever known so many to die within 3 months. We usually lost 1 or 2 but never 11! I raised concerns but was ignored.
I'm so sorry to hear that such an awful disease xSo sad... my Mum is in a home now... just had her 4th booster she has alzhiemers & vascular dementia
My mum also has Alzheimer's and vascular dementia, she is also in a home and she does not remember me at all. I write to her most weeks, trying to provoke some memories but she cannot communicate at all now and has her letter read to her, and sleeps a lot. Its a horrid disease, I know it sounds bad but I would prefer her to have diabetes than what she has now. I cannot see her as it upsets me so much and I don't want to upset her in any waySo sad... my Mum is in a home now... just had her 4th booster she has alzhiemers & vascular dementia
