Dear Pain Matters readers,
A question that often haunts is:
When is “Long Covid” ACTUALLY caused by the experimental Covid-19 injection, hence vaccine-induced injuries (also popularized as “Post-VAC-Syndrome”)?
Renowned researchers are now asking this question more often including Associate Professor of Neurology at Harvard Medical School and Assistant in Pathology (Neuropathology), Anne Louise Oaklander (quoting):
“You see one or two patients and you wonder if it’s a coincidence … But by the time you’ve seen 10, 20 … Where there’s smoke, there’s fire.”
According to Oaklander (who is renowned for her research into small fiber neuropathy), symptoms that may appear within mere hours, days or even weeks after the Covid-19 injection may include:
- persistent headaches;
- severe fatigue; and
- abnormal heart rate and blood pressure.
Specifically, patients with post-vaccination symptoms may present with:
- Small fiber neuropathy, that involves nerve damage that can cause electric shock–like, tingling sensations, burning pain and blood circulation problems; and/or
- Small fiber neuropathy-induced postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), that can involve muscle weakness, unusual variations in heart rate and blood pressure, fatigue and brain fog.
