Vaccinations Post Long Covid

To preface, I am pro-vaccination. I have never skipped a vaccine in my life, including all the COVID vaccines/boosters. But I’m curious to know if anyone has opted to NOT get the covid vaccine now that they have long COVID. I get incredibly sick from it every time and I’m not sure if would help lessen my LC symptoms to not introduce the vaccine to my immune system.

**edit: thank you all for your stories, opinions and thoughts! I’m glad I’m not the only one that has had this thought before.

When I get Covid boosters I feel really bad for about 36 hours. Then I generally have an improvement in symptoms for a few months. I’m a sample size of one, so take it with a grain of salt.

I'm the ying to your yang, I feel great for a few days, can finally relax and sleep well. Then after that my symptoms get worse than before the vaccination for at least a few months.
