I don't want to go into my health too much but I had the first vaccine not because I wanted it but because I required it to see my family who lived abroad

I had an immediate reaction to the vaccine and have had blood pressure problems ever since and an ongoing investigation into my heart, the treatment of which has been delayed, ironically because of the backlog in hospitals following covid.

I was dismissed as a crank by many but thankfully a Doctor with courage told me my issues could have been due to the vaccine. He also said there was zero chance of any one else in the department looking into it.
I don't think that I'd have survived in the UK. The treatment I got was life saving. My heart had grown to 3 times its normal size. I was lucky to have had the stroke whilst in intensive care.

I hope everything goes well for you IBS.
