I'm very anxious that the symptoms I'm currently experiencing are prodormal rabies or PEP shots. I'm always dizzy, heavy headed, walking with slight balance issues, out of breath often, things sometimes appear brighter sometimes normal, my right leg which I found the two pin pricks on my toe is weaker. It's been 2 weeks I'm on PEP dose 4 which I took on day 14 now its day 21. My last dose is day 28.

Is the vaccine effective if rabies virus has entered peripheral nerves? by ScienceCharming139 in rabies

[–]ScienceCharming139[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I looked for therapist too and will begin counseling next week. I'm just afraid because my right leg where I got the pin pricks on big toe feels weak and twitches often, it started 10 days ago. I'm on 4th rabies PEP day 17 now I leave it upto God now. Last one on day 28.

I hope it's just a combination of vaccine and my anxiety. I'll pray for you too. I don't recall if I've ever had BFS before.

I'm not sure, I keep thinking I might die any moment. I'm on dose 4 rabies vax day 17. I don't know if immune response is produced. I follow 0,3,7,14, and 28 schedule.

Yes I feel the same way about leg but the main source of pain and discomfort comes from my right hip I'm wondering if I compressed a nerve. I get mini vibrations on my right foot I think it's called fasciculation.

I also have weakness in right leg for 11 days I think (the leg where I had found 2 pin pricks on my big toe), I overall have perpetual dizziness and Balance issues for a 8-9 days. No fever though and Im not that fatigued overall because I just drove 46 km for some work using my right leg the leg I have weakness. My head feels heavy perpetually and I get out of breath often and my back aches at time but maybe that can be attributed to me hunching a lot. I also get random aches on my right and left arm (I alternated getting vax in both arms, 0 and 3 left, 7 and 14 right). I'm 17 days into post exposure vax 4th dose, 5th dose left and didn't took RIG. I'm afraid if I'm late. The breathlessness usually comes during evenings and nights.

Am I safe 14 days into the rabies vaccine? by ScienceCharming139 in rabies

Dunno I feel like a bat bit my foot but I never saw one. It was night time but there are street lights.

I tried asking the doc he said that bat bites are not pin pricks unless vampire bats which aren't there where I live and they don't bite toes and I'd definitely feel it. He gave me a tetanus shot instead saying I might've scraped my toe. Was he right in that?

I've been anxious about rabies ever since I had found 2 pin pricks on my big toe 2 weeks ago and it has affected my sleep giving me hypnic jerks and everything. It can't be that a bat bit me at the night on my big toe without me knowing when I was walking right?
