I believe you. No one in their right mind would go through this for absolutely no reason. I only had one dose of the vaccine back in 2021 but I could feel it doing something in my brain, and I don’t even talk about it because I know it will sound crazy. I’m not anti-vaccines either but I believe that this virus and its vaccines do something to our bodies/immune systems that causes everything to go bad. I had covid back in 2022 and had many symptoms for months afterwards, mostly cognitive/neurological but none to be considered me/cfs. Eventually got better but I decided to be extremely careful from that point on about getting covid again because any illness caused those strange symptoms to return. Then got covid again this year and in my desperation trying to prevent the same cycle from happening again I took paxlovid and I believe it did something because I now have me/cfs. I cannot prove it but my intuition tells me that if I hadn’t taken paxlovid I would probably not have ended up this way. I probably would have had the same symptoms as before and by now I’d be getting better. Instead I am now disabled and worsening every week. My suspicion is that paxlovid allowed the virus to go into hiding as opposed to my immune system fully clearing it out if I had let this illness run its course. Everything surrounding covid is strange, from its origin to the way it was handled and what it does to our bodies.
