Has Anyone After COVID-19 Vaccination Noticed Increase Or Flare Up In Their White Spots?
I got vaccinated in May 2021 with my first dose and by the end of July 2021, I noticed a sudden flare up and rapid progression.
I don't know if it is because of the vaccine because I was on antibiotics for a month in June.
This also raises another question, has anyone noticed increase in their vitiligo post/during the use of antibiotics?
Thank you all in advance.
My vitiligo started when I got my booster of moderna. I wish I never took any of those shots. So I know for a fact that those shots mess with our melanin. One day everybody will know why all of a sudden you keep saying all these people on TV with the Lago. And why they came up with a cream so they can make some money that probably doesn't work. Peace out
I am glad you asked that question and there are some of us with similar experience. I got covid and flu vaccine together and in 10 days I got vitiligo on my thumb. It spread over for 3 weeks and now seems a bit quiescent since I started Protopic. I strongly suspect the vaccines activity cytotoxic T cells which are killing my melanocytes. I asked a vitiligo expert but he said he hasn't seen any increase in vitiligo cases since covid. Now it will be very difficult to prove a link between the two, but the more we report these cases, the more chances of some doctor/scientist noticing this and gets curious.
Charmi, I had no spots at all until after the 2 Pfizer shots. Within a few weeks these spots appeared on my face under my nose. I didn't know until after I saw a dermatologist that it was Vitiligo. Total shocked by this and when she told me No Cure! I was emotionally sad and embarrassed by the spread. Now 3 years later the autoimmune deficiency is all over half the bottom half of my face and neck area, on my thighs, under both arms, inner thighs and buttocks area and on my feet. Rapidly spreading everywhere. I wished I had not taken the shots due to this major incident in my Life. Trying to be positive and learning to still love me is hard but I am still beautiful within. I do cover my vitiligo with makeup on my face and neck areas to help in not being so noticeable.
Have a Great Day and Weekend. We will be okay!
Mine flared up all over my body since my vacation I will not be having any more .
