I am at a lost for words. Actually close to tears - it is regarding my husband bloodwork.

I got my Maderna shot on Jan 12th. 2 days later I was in the E.R. with my right side of my neck swelled out about 5" Tounge was swelled up so I could almost not swallow & breathe. Dr. in ER gave me some ?? Antibiotics. I as if this was from the Shot? Never got an answer.

I kept going downhill till I couldn't breathe by May 20th. D.I.L. took me to E.R. in Lafayette. There they admitted me to the hospital. I was in there for 4 days with bags of stuff running into IVs. Even on nurse coming in every 6 hrs. putting what she said was the highest-powered antibiotic made in my IV port by hand. They kept taking blood every 4 hrs. From day 1 to day 3 I didn't care what they did to me I just wanted answers & to get better.

Finally, on 3rd day I got the pulmonary Dr. to tell me it was a close call as I got Conav-19 from the Maderna shot. & they had to work hard to keep me from going on a ventilator. He told me on the day I was leaving DO NOT get any more Conav-=19 shots.

So I found one Dr. that told the truth about these shots.

I so wish my son would've had those results

He died last April, within four days of getting the Moderna vaccine

First of all, you can't say the vaccine isn't the cause of what's going on with her husband. How can you know when the experts don't know? They keep finding out new things about COVID and the vaccines. And everybody doesn't have the same system..our bodies are different. Our health issues and medications are not all the same. The stories keep changing and we hear about "experts" disagreeing on what's best. They didn't warn about breakthrough infections and they didn't warn about people dying after getting vaccinated...but those things happened.

Next..I don't feel the OP is spreading propaganda. Unless I've misread the post...Ladybj didn't tell people not to get the vaccine.I feel she was simply stating her concerns and wondering if the vaccine could be the cause, particularly since her husband's tests were normal last time. My interpretation is that she's saying she is going to do her own research before jumping into taking the vaccine. IMO that's reasonable. More people should follow suit.

@Ladybj I'm sorry this is happening to your husband. Hopefully the doctors will be able to treat him to get his readings back to normal.

THANK YOU Diva...WELL stated. I knew someone would get my point!!! I also knew I would get several misinterpretations.

High monocyte-platelet is actually not very unusual following a regular flu shot. The flu vaccine can cause inflammation and that causes the monocytes and platelets to interact. Though the flu vaccine is not the same thing, your husband could be having a similar reaction. But that doesn't mean he's in danger. Your husband's doctor would have been alerted if the lab saw something that needed immediate attention, and you'd have probably gotten a phone call.

I'm sure your husband will be fine. You should relax and he should take it easy for a few days. Probably the last thing he needs is to fret about it, right?

My husband has not had a flu shot this year...therefore we can rule that out. He had high counts on other blood test as well which I have not posted. He will be getting immediate attention.. he has an appt with his doc early next week as oppose to a month from now which is usually the case. I am very relaxed... thank you. Easier said to not fret about it if you are not having to deal with it... no disrespect. I know you mean well. But my hubby is very concerned about it and I don't blame him.

Because, Ladybj, if blood clotting was a side effect of this vaccine, it would be widely known by known by now, and would be shouted from the rooftops. Your mention of your husband's health problems is the first I (or probably anyone else) has heard of a connection to the vaccine. You might as well say he had such-and-such for breakfast, and that's what caused the blood clots.

And all kinds of health problems can cause blood clots. One is a-fib (atrial fibrillation), which he may have, as it's very common. It can cause serious blood clots which cause strokes. That's why I (and half the people I know) are taking Eliquis, a blood thinner.

Blaming everything that comes along on the vaccine is just plain ridiculous. But those who have been conditioned to think that way for some political reason will desperately reach out to find anything, no matter how farfetched, to blame on it. I'mnot saying that you are one of those people, but you are providing them with ammunition to use against this lifesaving vaccine.

What "research" are you planning to do? Reading all the stuff on the Internet about it? That isn't research. If you do come up with some legitimate, scientific proof that the vaccine causes blood clots, please quote your source of information.

And not realizing it COULD be the vaccine is ridiculous. I did not say the vaccine he had may cause blood clotting.. I simply said his platelets were high which can CAUSE blood clotting. I also did not blame it on the vaccine.. I said it may be but it could be something unrelated.

Even if you had it in writing by your Dr that the vaccine was the cause and you posted a picture of the proof, there are some here with closed minds that would never believe it. 😥

No matter the reason I hope a treatment to help your husband is found soon. 🌹

And if she had in writing by her doc and posted a picture of the proof was NOT the cause, there are some with closed minds that wouldn't believe that either; people are so polarized on the vaccine issue.

Thank you! we have all had our vaccines around 50 in the family and no after effects at all, thank God!

We have had ours also and no problems either. My daughter who is a pharmacist is strictly giving the shots at different CVS pharmacies here in Houston. She said I would not believe the mothers bringing their sick kids age 12 and under wanting her to give them the shots. She explains they cannot get it with a fever. They get mad at her like its her fault!

Sorry if I sounded like a butthead. I'm actually on your side. I'd suspect the vaccine, too.
 
Why has this turned into yet another vaccine thread? This speculation is pointless. @Ladybj ks worried about her husband’s blood test. Let’s wait and see if there is still a problem, or if there is any problem at all.

I frequently get very HIGH white blood cell counts. This has happened for years and indicates I have a major infection, but I don’t. Doctors now figure it part of a reaction to my red blood cell cancer but they don’t know.

It could be the high platelet count is just an oddity and nothing to worry about.

Thank you!!!!!!! Never did I say his high blood counts were DUE to Covid vaccine. I stated I have not ruled it out but did not say it WAS the cause. I don't know for sure. Again, I thank you for clarification. I agree... not sure how it went from my hubby and my concern for his high blood counts to me blaming strickley covid vaccine. There are several other high blood counts he have but I did not post them. I was very skeptical in posting this because I already knew where it would lead to so I was prepared. So sad that some people go left when it's not necessary...however, people have a right to the way they feel - but they have no idea how it is until they are face with it.

I HIGHLY doubt if his dr would say the vaccine was the cause. It would be hard to prove because the medical World is learning as they go along, just as we are.
 
UPDATE: Hubby had his dr appt on Tuesday. I was impressed with his doctor - hubby told me his doc told him he is not sure what is going on with him. Instead of sending him home with several meds, he is referring him for a Liver Ultrasound and a Specialist. He was not too concerned with his blood counts but since he is not sure what's going on with his weight lost and high blood counts, he is sending him for several test. Thank you all for your response. However, I have my suspension.

You have answered your own question: the same is true also you cannot say or suggest the vaccine is the cause of anything!! The sensible way to go is to be "neutral" and wait for the doctor and his/her opinion and test.
Making assumptions especially where the pandemic is concerned is not of value.

My hubby doc did not have a clue - which I figured would be the case. Would anyone think a doc would ask him, did you take the covid vaccine - if so, that may be the cause - NOOOOOOOO!!!!
