Symptom narrative

Patient mentioned 3 days after receiving the vaccine he was not able to walk. It became so severe that he had to go to the doctor where he was given a cortisone shot that did not help. Also stated he's had issues with his legs ever since. Mentioned losing 20 lbs afterwards as well.
