Hannah Stoll's fight against the long consequences of the corona vaccination: a game of fate
In Cologne, the story of Hannah Stoll, a 27-year-old woman suffering from ME/CFS and immune-mediated small fiber neuropathy, is told in a particularly moving way. A disease that is often described as invisible causes Hannah to experience diffuse pain, gastrointestinal disorders and an altered perception of temperature. According to the report of the Swabian newspaper their complaints are directly related to the corona vaccination, which the clinic classifies as a post vac diagnosis.
In order to improve her quality of life, Hannah started treatment with intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIG), which was prescribed to her as an off-label medication, at the beginning of the year. This therapy aims to relieve their pain and treat fatigue syndrome. The original plan was to receive IVIG doses every three to six weeks. In reality, however, the intervals were delayed, which hindered the healing process. However, the health insurance company has now agreed to carry out the therapy more frequently and in higher doses.
Challenges of therapy
But not everything goes smoothly: After increasing the dose, Hannah reacted negatively with severe headaches and palpitations. For this reason, the dosage is now reduced again. Whether IVIG therapy will produce the desired results in the long term remains uncertain. The uncertainty weighs heavily; Hannah is unable to work and is fighting for a disability pension. Your family doctor, Dr. Anika Schaefer, confirms this condition due to the fatigue that plagues her.
Her mother's support is very important to Hannah. Daily help is valuable, but it also brings challenges because care and support require a lot of energy and time. Hannah is also thinking about her professional future. Her original plan A is no longer realistic due to the illness, which is why she is thinking about a “plan B”.
