The33-year-old woman, who asked to remain
anonymous, said she felt fine in the hours after getting
the first dose of the Pfizer vaccine last week. However,
she said 12 hours later, she woke up in the middle of the
night with no feeling in her arms or legs.
Paramedics came and rushed her to Jefferson Hospital.
In the coming days, she was moved to Allegheny General
Hospital in the Northside and then the Cleveland Clinic --
as doctors ran a multitude of tests to figure out how and
why this happened. An MRI and spinal tap were clear, and
her blood work all came came back negative, ruling out
any rare diseases or disorders.
BETHEL PARK, Pa. — There have been some negative side
effects reported worldwide from the Pfizer, Moderna and
Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccines, but a Bethel Park
woman told Channel 11 she has been affected by
something that hadn’t been seen at all yet: paralysis.
“There is just nothing they can find wrong with me. No
underlying conditions, I have nothing in my history and
they are basically telling me, ‘You’re healthy and we can’t
figure out why this is going on,”’ the woman told Channel
11.
