My son, 36 had second vaccine 30 November 2021.
Didn't want the vaccine but family needed to see unwell family member in Indonesia.
Turned out borders were closed and they never saw the family member who died of Covid in Bali.
He was 68 but a heavy smoker and already on oxygen.
My son became breathless, finding it hard to get full breath a few hours after vaccine.
This continued off and on for two weeks. Then came high fevers which were intermittent but my son says he didn't feel so well in that period.
He went to GP - results normal.
New years day he got Covid. Two weeks he was unwell high fever and could hardly walk from bedroom to bathroom. Went away but fever kept coming back.
He went to the gym when he started to feel better. He never stopped going to gym as he felt it would help.
During February and early March he noticed small symptoms of tingling and numbness but thought it would go away.
About 23 March the tingling turned to numbness in lower legs. It didn't go away.
Went to GP then hospital emergency. They said his tests were normal
Two days later could walk only wobbly. Admitted to hospital. Tests normal but stayed.
Went home. Things got very bad the numbness progressing.
Admitted back to hospital day after Easter Monday. He is still there in Royal Brisbane Hospital. He is paralysed from chest down and hands are like claws Still no diagnosis. They are clueless. Don't recognise it could be Covid as quote 'He presented too late' as in 2 months. When he had symptoms from beginning. He just didn't tell people
He may die. Today as a last resort they are operating on his spinal cord to get fluid to find out that is attacking him. There will be permanant damage but we had no choice. His life is so terrible as we watch the paralysis progress.
He has had 12 NRIs, multiple scans and hundreds of tests. His blood test is always normal. But he is not normal.
We are desperate to find something . Our son was never sick. Had never been in hospital. He didn't want the vaccine. He got Covid anyway.
His wife and son are devastated.
The medical profession doesn't speak out. They know so little, but our son is dying. The tried and proven methods of plasma replacement and IVIG have not worked. They are missing something in their thinking.
What can be done. . I do know that somehow going to the gym made this invader more powerful as if it went deeper into his system. The only thing they tell us is his spinal cord is swollen. But why can't they find what it is.
This is Australia in 2022.
