I'm a 51 year old white male, I received the 2nd Pfizer booster on July 19th 2022. Felt usual symptoms: lethargy, headache, body aches for about 48 hours. 10 days later, I started having symptoms of what i thought was a sinus infection, pressure around eyes, dark circles under eyes, brain fog, and lower energy. Over the following months the sinus pressure would improve and then come back. The brain fog and lack of energy got worse over time. In September new symptoms appeared: ringing in ears, heart seemed to be working harder, cold sweaty feet. By October I made an appointment to see the doctor as I thought it was a lingering sinus infection. Surprisingly he said there was no sign of an active sinus infection and thought it was allergies, he prescribed Prednisone and blood work. At this time, the weather changed and got cold for the first time this autumn, I was unnaturally cold and unable to warm myself. By this time I was having lots of confusion. I finally went for the blood test after being on Prednisone for a week. My TSH came back at 5.66. I scheduled a follow-up appointment with my doctor as the Prednisone was not helping and I continued to get worse, I also wanted to discuss my symptoms possibly being hypothyroidism. At follow up visit my blood pressure was very high. I had printed out my timeline of symptoms and he agreed to start me on a low dose of Levothyroxine. He also prescribed Prinivil for hypertension. After 10 days on Levothyroxine I'm feeling much better although my BP is still elevated. Recent history: Starting January 1st 2022 I began a calorie restriction diet, went from 256 to 220 lbs. I was exercising daily, running 4 miles 3 times a week, and lifting weights. I was in the best shape I had been in for the past 10 years. I'm in no way an antivaxxer. My unvaccinated 45 year old brother in law passed away from covid in September 2021 and has devastated our family. Thanks for the video.

It sounds EBV reactivation post vaccination
