I’m so grateful to you both!!! No doctors know about this! I have had ripping exertional headaches after exercising ever since getting the second shot! Thank you!

I had atypical migraines that weren't painful. After the pfizer vaccine I've had almost a consistent painful migraine, with very painful flares. Never had these before.

@jalexanderevans Год назад

Update: I got COVID and had a consistent headache for a month so I'm starting to think it's the body's immune response to covid that gave me the headaches... but the vaccine did change my immune response. Wonder what would have happened if I got covid with no vaccine... also, I only get headaches in the summer now.

Ok, I’m off to the doctors. Finally, a video on my vaccine headaches. Thanks

@superkatertot5425 5 месяцев назад

I hope you were treated better than I was. Every medical pro I saw for my vax injury emphatically said (although they had no medical scientific proof) it could NOT be from my vax. I knew it was true, but I REALLY knew (from my own charting proof) when the frequency finally started being a few less days with aura and migraine. As I said above, as my vax waned, so did these monstrous migraines. Shame on my neurologist sitting in her office only doing zoom neurological "exams."

How is she today?

@jerrycarnes9487 3 года назад

@@gosiak455 she has been in pain usually in her legs anyways because of the NMO disease that she has. A disease that only 4,000 Americans have that attacks the nervous system. But ever since the shot she has had a continuous migraine. Thank God she decided not to get the second dose. I'm pretty certain that the reason the split the dose in two is because they know absolutely that the adverse reactions would have been higher. But to answer your question....she has not improved but also it doesn't seem to progress worse. I have her on magnesium, Vitamin C in ascorbate powder form, vitamin D, vitamin B2, CoQ10, and we get enough Iodine from cooking which those were the things that Dr Tenpenny suggested to delay to hold adverse reactions at bay.

Video so helpful! Glad to have my thoughts confirmed. Serious increase in my migraines, both level of pain and number per week after Pfizer. Didn’t realize and then got a Moderna booster. Migraines even worse, lost ability to talk with one particularly long, excruciating migraine. Wondering how I was going to move forward through life and then I found Migraine Miracle. I’ve changed a new diet and adopted intermittent fasting. While not gone, the migraines are greatly decreased in severity. I don’t even take much medication anymore. Thanks for the information, I’ve been wondering if there was a connection. A little more confident now about the cause of this scary change in my life.

@karinafinearty9769 2 года назад

I had my booster for Covid 5days before my usual botox shots for migraine. I woke the day after the botox with the worst migraine of my life. I couldn't keep water or food down. That doesn't usually happen to me. My neck and thumping head, arms and shoulders were so sore and stiff and I was weak and not capable of doing anything but lying in bed. I rang my neurologist office and that was days ago... I am still waiting for someone to call me.. Too bad if I had been on deaths door.( It certainly felt like I was.) I am still recovering slowly energy wise. I am sure my immune system was in overload. Before getting Botox shots patients should be asked when their last booster shot was. It would have saved me a whole lot of trauma and pain. I really couldn't have been in more pain if I was beaten up 😔

I'm use to having bad migraines that will last more then 3 or 4 days with throwing up.

Looking everywhere for information on prolonged headache/migraine/dizziness lasting a long time after the vaccine. All you can find is that it lasts a "day or two". Yeah, right. It's been a week and I'm still having problems. Seeing a doctor in two days but I don't expect much. Hope to God this goes away. Sick of feeling sick and not finding any meaningful answers. Got my second Moderna shot on 9/3. It's 9/11 and I've been in bed off and on today with a horrible freaking headache. I am NOT dehydrated.

My 25yo son in the Navy is the perfect picture of health, eats healthy, exercises daily, sleeps well, and has no or family history of migraines. I'm trying to find answers rn to a serious (migraine?) attack he had 2 weeks after he got the 2nd shot. He went to the ER when his headache worsened to throwing up and difficulty with speech and motor function. By the time he got to the ER he couldn't speak at all, side of face drooping, and arms and legs went numb. They said they did a CT scan but it didn't show anything obvious. Never got results from the spinal tap. The dr told me he was getting an MRI while he was in the ICU, but they never gave him one. The Navy hospital released him the next day because his speech returned to normal. They never offered up any explanation nor tried to research further. I'm frustrated because my son has never had health problems and I can't find any answers.

No one has answers. I got my pfizer & been having migraines for weeks. I'm 27 fit, used to gym 6 days a week now I've had to stop all excercise. They wont do any tests on me & said its a "normal symptom". I think nobody knows too much about what's going on with the brain effect on some people.

It’s continued intermittently even upto a year later, though they are again now getting fewer and further between.
