One long - term side effect horror story is about a patient who had trouble swallowing over time due to VNS. It started as a minor inconvenience but gradually became a major issue. They had to be very careful while eating and drinking, and in some cases, had to rely on tube feeding because the risk of choking was so high. This completely changed their lifestyle and made them feel like a burden.
There are cases where the VNS didn't work as expected at all. For example, a person had high hopes for VNS to reduce their seizure frequency. However, after the device was implanted and activated, there was no change in the number or severity of seizures. In fact, they seemed to get even more frustrated and depressed as they had gone through the invasive procedure for nothing. And they also had to deal with the side effects like hoarseness which added to their distress.

At present, there's no evidence to suggest major long - term side effects from Pfizer. The short - term side effects like pain, fatigue, etc., are known and are part of the body's normal response to the vaccine. However, researchers are constantly monitoring vaccinated individuals over time to be absolutely sure. So far, the data is reassuring, but they'll keep looking for any signs of long - term problems.
There are cases where long - term negative effects include hyperpigmentation. After skin needling, if the skin is not properly cared for or if there was an initial reaction, hyperpigmentation can occur. It can make the skin look blotchy and uneven, and it might be very difficult to correct. I know someone who still has hyperpigmentation years after a bad skin needling experience.

One long - term effect is the development of fear and anxiety.

Yes. There was a person who had Cool Sculpting a few years ago. At first, the results seemed okay. But over time, they noticed that the treated area started to look saggy. It was like the skin didn't tighten up as it should have after the fat cells were removed. Another long - term horror story is that some people experienced a recurrence of fat in the treated area. It was really frustrating for them as they thought Cool Sculpting was a permanent solution.
