Does any one have post anthrax vaccine medical issues?

I can't prove any form of causation or directly attributable effects from getting the anthrax shots but I do have strong coincidental notes.

I received my 5-shot series in 1999 for a PSC to S. Korea (during the "take the shot or go to jail" era). At the end of that 1-year assignment, I started having weight and memory issues. All of the medical checks afterwards only did basic blood-work labs which showed everything as normal (got lots of the eat less, run more, quit complaining feedback). In 2007, I was diagnosed with hypothyroid disorder via a private doctor but the USAF refused to accept those results. Finally in 2010, I managed to convince a new primary care manager to run a full thyroid panel of tests and they found I had auto-immune thyroid failure with some of the known side effects.

The coincidental part of this is that one of my First Sergeants and I were discussing auto-immune disorders (he was a diabetic) and we both came to realize that our issues started about a year after getting the anthrax shots. My younger brother was med-boarded out of the USMC after he became a diabetic during his 2nd year. As I said before, can't prove causation but there is a consistent coincidental link.

Luckily for me, I kept copies of all of my medical records which I submitted to the VA when I retired (the VA came through for me on that). Not sure if any other the medical issues I've been having lately are related but who knows...

I had my vaccines in 2004 and 2005. I don't know if what I have is related to the Anthrax vaccines, but this post just made me realize that maybe I should go see a doc. I did some searches and most said it can be cancerous but that's a slim chance so I haven't thought about it. Plus it's a bit embarrassing to have to tell someone what it is.

My right leg will have muscle shakes, like a cell phone is vibrating.

None so far.

Add me to the list of coincidences, I got the first of the 5-shot anthrax vaccine at a pre-deployment briefing in 1998, the subsequent 4 shots while deployed. When I returned from Japan and was doing the S-shop check-in sheet, I actually passed out in my XO's office (point being just over a year), got basic bloodwork done and they diagnosed me with thyroid issues, gave me synthroid and I leveled out to some extent but still never felt quite myself.. fast forward, 10 years, I find out, it's not the thyroid condition 90%of people get, its hashimoto's an autoimmune disease that attacks the thyroid, fast forward another 10 years as many other health issues arise and I am still feeling horrible and on top of the hashimoto's, I have a rarer add-on that stops me from producing T3 also. Synthroid (is only a synthetic T4 hormone, your body is supposed to convert that to T3). They have me on a synthetic T3 and things are somewhat better but I still feel there are issues. I also have bone degeneration, joint pain, and memory/focus issues. Do you happen to have any of those also?

I get the migraines really bad, I never had any before 2002 but after the series I get them twice a week or more for the past 18 years VA says stress but they don't have a clue

I took the last one of five in 2000 and I've done nothing but get worst

No long-term adverse reactions, but I've received many shots and I'm about to go in for a Typhoid shot...why? No idea. But at least 30 of the military shots I've gotten are from "unknown" manufacturers or lot numbers. There is no accountability/traceability with whatever it is they are giving us. I know at least one of the shots I got contained aborted fetal tissue. Your best bet is to try to get exemptions when possible through AR 40-562. Here's a study recently released that shows how 9.9% of HPV vaccine recipients ended up in the ER shortly after and how that's a pretty low figure (patting themselves on the back) comparatively. http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0264410X16002036

Thank to you too GySgt Ekblad All we have are (U.S.) veterans never leave a battle behind. They trained us I mean what do they expect? I love my country we do and say out of Honor. Hence I will never stop the old saying. For GOD AND COUNTRY.
Thanks in advance to all that responds.
