I unwillingly took the Vax in 2021. My granddaughter's school wanted all caregivers to provide proof of vaccination. I drop her off and pick her up a few times a month, and since I wasn't vaxxed, they were going to ban me from campus. No plays, no family events. My daughter started telling me she faced austriacization from the other parents because of the unvaxxed grandpa. My wife, who supported my concerns about this new and untested medication, decided to bend to the will of my daughter and get vaccinated. Both of them applied pressure to me. When the real estate brokerage I work through also began pressuring me, I went out and got the J&J vax, still not wanting the mRNA.
After getting vaccinated, I noticed my heartrate would hit 220bmp when I did my usual 30 minutes on the elyptical, at a moderate, non-sweating pace which used to get my pulse only up to about 130-140bmp. My wife and daughter said that was me getting myself worked up over my MAGA, anti-vax feelings. Part of me believed they were right. I was so bent out of shape at being forced to do this... by my government. By my employer. By my family. My blood pressure, which was always in the high 120's spiked to 150. Again, my family told it was all psychological and that I was a nut.
I DID NOT want to go back to my doctor. He refused to have a pros and cons discussion with me about the vaccines prior to my shots. I said "Im retired doc. I don't mind staying isolated, keeping my circle small. Would it be prudent if I just waited". But he refused to entertain this. "You could die" was all he would say.
So now, 2 years later, I've been working out hard...daily. I wanted my BP and my heart rate DOWN. Naturally. I didn't want to hop on to meds for the first time in my life. Daily treadmill work...sweating it out. Then weights. Then stretching. I got into great shape and my pulse went back down to about 150 or so at a moderate workout.
But then a couple of weeks ago, I got sick...really the first big cold/flu I've had in years. I was laid up for a couple of weeks, and am only now trying to get back onto my elyptical machine. And guess what. My pulse with a leisurely workout is back up to 180-190 beats per minute. Again, my wife is telling me it's because I'm in my late 50s and have a belly and that's just aging. But I can't kick that I was healthy all these years, got the shot, and immediatly had a pulse and blood pressure problem.
My daughter got an irregular heartbeat immediately after her Moderna booster. She switched back to an anti-vax belief, and has refused to vaccinate my two granddaughters. They've had covid at least twice, and the symotoms were more mild than their seasonal allergies. I can't believe I caved on my principles and did this to myself.
