I forgot to mention - I have been through many tests as well -

Don't forget it really good news when they can't find anything and your tests are normal - although it doesn't provide alot of comfort for the present 'can't ignore' all consuming symptoms - it seems like it is the same as all of us - vaccine adverse reaction :(

It really ***** and takes so long to heal but you will in time - that's what everyone tells us.
I can definitely see a difference, but when those symptoms flare up from being minimal - yucky and scary - I know how you feel about being desperate to know when this hell on earth will end - we all are :)

Hi MoS,

We are not really posting here anymore - we are over on Tigling after Swine Flu vacc - Chapter 2 - check out all the posts there - many former posters are recovered and moving on with life, many of us still have symptoms and are coping as best as possible.

I am 5 months post vacc today - still have many of the symptoms you have but they are much less severe and in general they wax and wane - mostly I have a few neuro symptoms and buzzy legs and feet with numb bottoms of feet, muscle twitches and a few other things...

I have gotten much better over the course of the last month and I think you will see 'marked' improvements within the next 2 months...

There is also a post about '6 months post vacc' where you could post you symptoms too -
but why don't you come over to Ch. 2 where ther is much ongoing discussion.

Hang in there!

Are you still experiencing your symptoms of tingling? I am nearly 4 months post vaccine and I am still experiencing a myriad of symptoms, one of the many being the numbness and tingling that you mention. I also get a strange dizziness, internal vibrating throughout my body and brain. I'm desparate to know how much longer this will last. I've been to emergency rooms and many doctors including 2 different neuros. None of my doctors can find anything in my blood work, MRIs, xrays, CT scans, EMG nerve test, etc. I got the vaccine Jan 13, 2010. Are you still having symptoms??

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are experiencing a reaction to the vaccination - pretty sure that's what is happening.

Toothpaste? I think not.

This is an older forum and we have moved on to newer chapters - I believe we are on ch.2 - please join us there - you will get lots of feedback and responses from people who have had the same reaction and are tingling (and so much more:)

Read through the over 500 posts on ch. 2 - see you there!

I got the H1N1 shot and the flu shot at the same time but in different arms on January 11th sometime in the afternoon and later around 5:00pm I started feeling the tingling and a kind of burning sensation in my jaw, cheeks and ears. I called the nurse advice line and she suggested I go to the ER so I did. I went to the ER and they did some test that they said came out normal and also gave me anxiety medicine.
So I went home and the tingling continued on and off so I thought maybe it is due to a recent root canal and crown I just had done where the crown was put on way too high and my bite was off. I thought maybe this could cause the tingling since I am a clincher. I went to my dentist and she said the tingling was due to my toothpaste (Sensodyne Pro Namel) and the chemicals in it. So, I then changed my toothpaste and my jaw continues to tingle. I am now getting even more concerned so I look up to see if anyone else had tingling as a result of the H1N1 shot and that is how I found myself here. I am happy to have found your posts and I will be happier when I see that someone has been helped. I would really like to know if there is anyone out there who has had the tingling and it went away. If so, was it due to time or something else? It has now been over two months and I am still experiencing the tingling.
