Summary

Nightjar 82176 said they reacted poorly to every COVID vaccine and booster, being sick for weeks each time, and then when they caught COVID they were ill for two months and did not feel right for some time afterwards. About six months after the infection they developed double vision and were diagnosed with ocular myasthenia gravis. They now get flareups of the MG roughly every six months and need steroids to keep it in check.
