severe reaction after a tetanus shot
i am a 46 y.o. female, i worked as a reg. nurse fulltime until......
i had a severe reaction after a tetanus shot in 2008, within 72 hours i was
confused, elec pain all over, and collapsing to the ground in weakness
(near paralysis) barely able to move for an hour or so, so weak i would
think i would take my last breath, this happened daily for 6 months, i lost down
to 89 pounds, i lost my abilitys , everything was too much stimulation, i
couldn't sleep, i couldn't watch tv, i could only talk to one person at a time
and very slowly, i had to have caregivers......after 6 months of this my husband
and i were planning that i would die, because no doctor could give us any hope,
then about the 7 month post the shot, miraculously i started getting better, and
very slow over the next 3 years i improved --i am still in pain, have weakness,
and i am about 70% of what i use to be
