I’ve worked in community services for over 20 years in AOD, mental health, disability, youth and residential programs.
Despite my better judgement and self driven research I caved and got my first dose of AZ seven weeks ago. I told my doctor I was getting this against my will under extreme duress. I’m a sole parent with a young child with disability to support and needed my job.
I immediately felt weird. My whole head was tingling like tiny electrical shocks, my muscles were twitching, my vision deteriorated (wear glasses now) and I just felt wrong.
The next few days I was quite sick with fever and chills and weakness in my legs. I could barely walk from one room to next. Then came the onset of pain throughout my whole body that felt like what I imagine arthritis might feel like and my muscles throbbing non-stop.
Day 8 I got sudden chest pain, light headed and short of breath. GP sent me to ER for tests. Nothing much showed up and I was discharged. Whilst waiting there I saw so many adverse reactions especially young people; blindness, seizures, partial paralysis, chest pains, locked/frozen joints. It was really traumatic seeing this in children. Staff were whispering and being very careful about what they said in front of patients.
Two weeks later I tested positive for covid. So did 3 other family members. The weeks in quarantine I just felt fatigued. I’ve had worse colds honestly. The other 3 family members all no jab (2 are kids), all other health issues going on prior to covid and all asymptomatic. But for me all my pre-exisiting issues re chest pain, body aches, muscle twitches, head tingles, and not feeling right continue to worsen. Prior to jab I was very healthy. Daily exerciser. No alcohol. Clean eater. I’m too scared to exercise now due to my symptoms.
I’ve been back to doctor for more tests but nothing unusual shows up.
I’ve been to doctor 3 times since coming out of quarantine and not once has my chest been listened to. And I’ve just recovered from covid…a supposedly deadly respiratory virus. Every other time I’ve had so much as a sore throat it’s the first thing doctors do. Doctors are scared to do this because patients then might ask for treatment and they are prevented from giving any!
All my post-jab symptoms continue and I know now I’ve had a positive covid test no medical professional will ever concede it was the jab rather than covid causing these symptoms. My reactions are mild compared to many I’ve read but bad enough that it’s changed my daily life and activities and that I will not succumb the 2nd, 3rd, 4th etc jabs so my freedom is short lived.
As a survivor of DV, abuse and trauma I found this whole process by those in power extremely traumatic much like a DV dynamic of beating people down into submission, gaslighting, blaming the victim, no one believes the victim, having no voice, feeling alienated and alone. My mental health has taken me to some very dark places in recent months.
The scariest part of all is watching our service and others push these jabs on the young and vulnerable who really don’t yet have the cognitive ability to foresee consequences and long term impact. We work with youth drug users. By definition these are the most impulsive sub culture that exist on instant gratification and reduce brain and psychological development. All they want to do is be accepted and fit in and have freedoms. I feel the sector is exploiting their client base to meet the demands of the governing bodies.
I got a 3 month exemption for second jab after having covid so my time working will be up in February.
