hagatha, While I appreciate your concern and caution, I'm always on top of my health, and spend more time at doc offices than most anywhere else. Other than needing to lose some weight, I'm in relatively good health for a woman in her late 60s. This physical therapist works for the hospital system that I've been part of since I moved into the area 10 years ago. My basic feeling is that, since I'm not a medical professional, I have to rely on those who are. I was so stunned and upset by it that I asked if it could be related to getting older, in other words, might it happen again. I was told it was highly unlikely, and was assured it was more probable to be a one time thing. Of course, they can't guarantee anything, but, for my own sanity, I have to rely on their expert opinion.
Even though nothing can be proven right now, I think that, as time goes by, because of the enormity of the covid situation, the vaccine, rightly or wrongly, may be blamed for a lot of things. I'm not sorry I got it, better safe than not, but still very frustrating.
Life's a puzzle; one piece at a time.

Butterflybabe, it may interest you to know that balance issues were a side effect my wife experienced within a day or two of having a third shot of covid-19 vaccine (although nowhere near serious enough to need treatment): we each had 2 shots of Pfizer followed by 1 of Moderna.

We had a couple of great days.
I've take over managing John's medication and now that he's getting them at the proper times and not forgetting doses or even whole days his pain levels have dropped. Yesterday we spent the whole day in Courtenay shopping and even had an early dinner at our favourite restaurant there. I'd been certain that we'd never be there again, but there we were, eating dinner.
Today was also great. We had our montly drive to the dump, which is actully a very nice country drive, and then to the kitchen store to look at some tablecloths and cookware. We ive in a dodgy little city but it has a kitchen store that is second to none, anywhere. Then we went to the brew pub for dinner.
That's the most he's been able to manage since he broke his hip last year.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

Gardens put to bed. Time for more reading and gaming.

I'm hoping we can get a couple of good days a week in the summer for boating.
He still has the Shingles infection, unfortunately, and it hurts quite a bit. Clearly we didn't get the medication in time. The Bell's Palsy isn't quite as bad and his eye is fine. However, the problem with the Shingles, apart from the pain, is that the doctors don't want him to receive chemo until it's gone, so he's been off chemo for about 6 weeks now. He only had three more sessions to go, but I guess the three-month break will be later in the summer, which isn't too bad.
He's still defying doctor's predictions.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.
