Summary
After a Moderna vaccination his energy plummeted over two weeks and he described neck creaks, heavy chest, body aches, tingling fingers, cognitive problems, MCAS and anxiety dating to childhood. By July 2024 he rated himself 85% recovered and in January 2025 said he had got over it, later crediting meditation, supplements, NAC and inositol, CBD/CBG and herbal tea. A stress-induced crash set him back about a week. By mid-2026 he felt much improved despite drifting kidney markers.
