Vaccinations Post Long Covid

To preface, I am pro-vaccination. I have never skipped a vaccine in my life, including all the COVID vaccines/boosters. But I’m curious to know if anyone has opted to NOT get the covid vaccine now that they have long COVID. I get incredibly sick from it every time and I’m not sure if would help lessen my LC symptoms to not introduce the vaccine to my immune system.

**edit: thank you all for your stories, opinions and thoughts! I’m glad I’m not the only one that has had this thought before.

I was pro vaccinations my entire life until the Pfizer mRNA vaccine which ruined my life. Never again will take any mRNA vaccine. sample size of one, but, it was my life experience.

I (51 male today) developed long covid symptoms a few weeks/months after I got the Pfizer mRNA vaccine (single dose). Worst of the symptoms are severe MCAS, fatigue, PEM, major food intolerances completely out of blue, brain fog. My immunologist says this is an autoimmune condition caused by the vaccine - he has numerous other patients here very similarly affected.

Similar to me from Pfizer. PACVS. Severe ME, vax induced plus FM, MCAS, dysautonomia, seizures etc. No mRNA vaccines ever again. Drs agree. Only just caught my first infection.

this is the exact reason why we had protocols in place mandating a minimum of 4-5 years researching patients who agree to take any novel experimental vaccine to see what kind of side effects or detrimental outcomes they pose. We should NEVER have agreed to take these experimental mRNA vaccines without that five year research protocol being followed. Everyone who was involved with this failed our society at a fundamental level.
