I was in a situation where my wife's family began to pressure us heavily to get vaccinated. So, my wife finally caved and let me know that she had decided to go ahead and get vaccinated to prevent a complete family war. Rather than leave her to do this by herself, I went ahead and got vaccinated with her (original series, Pfizer). This was July 2021.
Literally the night I got my second shot, I had something very strange happen. I had a cyst on my back that I had had for years suddenly turn red and swell up to the point that 2 days later I was at urgent care having it drained. They told me at the time that if it gave me further issues to see a dermatologist. Fast forward to January 2022, my wife suddenly has a bout of symptomatic tachycardia (rapid heart rate). She ended up in the emergency room and ultimately got diagnosed with hyperthryoidism and some other autoimmune/endocrinological issues, completely out of left field.
Right around Christmas, the cyst on my back started acting up again so I made a dermatologist appointment. I saw her last week and had her do a general skin check as well as looking at the cyst. The skin check, thankfully, was clear. She looked at the cyst and said that it could possibly be a basal cell carcinoma. She biopsied it and I should know something next week. The good thing is, if it IS cancer, basal cell carcinoma typically has a very good prognosis and should not be much more than an inconvenience.
Thankfully, my wife and I have not gotten boosters…nor will we be. I don't KNOW that any of the issues we have had since getting the vaccine have anything to do with the vaccine, but I highly suspect that to be the case. If I do end up with cancer it is going to be very hard for me not to harbor major resentment against her family. Now, they have all been vaxxed and boosted to the max and her sister has had to have a hysterectomy due to uterine cancer since getting it and her dad has had a minor heart attack since then.
