Day 4 · 6:29:44 · Dianne Spaulding · Myriam Bohémier

  • 🧠 Mount Sinai CT was inconclusive; staff diagnosed anxiety and pushed a psych consult despite photos of injury.
  • 📄 Toronto Public Health letter listed brain fog, tremors and bruising yet ordered an mRNA second dose for Delta.
  • 📞 Public-health callers and specialists kept pushing dose two; a neurologist later confirmed essential tremor from vaccine.

Physical injury was reframed as anxiety while authorities demanded a second shot.

That's when I had that earthquake feeling in my head. I actually went back to Mount Sinai and I said, you know, like, this is getting worse. You know, I've got these pins and needles now and all these other symptoms. You know, it's definitely from the vaccine. You know, and they actually stuck me in this makeshift area and it had other vaccine-injured people in it. So when I got there, I'm like, are you guys vaccine-injured? Why are, why are they shoving us in this, behind this curtain in this room? And nobody was saying anything, but I knew. But anyway, they did a CT scan and it came back inconclusive. There was nothing. They couldn't see anything. Um, and they said, uh, we, we think you have anxiety and we'd like to send you for a psych consult. Right.

Like, so those pictures to me showed real anxiety, especially your hands peeling. So I'm being facetious completely. I understand. That's what's so curious is you're showing physical symptoms and they're suggesting that it's anxiety. How did that make you feel?

Dianne Spaulding · 6:31:03

Angry, had a lot of emotions. I mean, it's really hard to go through all these symptoms and not, not know what is going on. You don't have a diagnosis, you can't move forward, you don't know what's happening to you, and there is nobody that believes that you've got something wrong with you. You It's anxiety. You need to see a psychiatrist.

Myriam Bohémier · 6:31:34

You know what?

Dianne Spaulding · 6:31:34

Because I actually believed it. I actually thought, oh, okay, I guess. Yeah, I've never had, I've never had like anxiety like this in my life. Of course you're anxious. Who wouldn't be anxious? You're going to the hospital with tremors and internal vibrations and all these other symptoms. And what, we're supposed to be happy about it? What? Like, of course we're going to be anxious. Of course we're going to be scared. So yeah, okay, sure, I was anxious. But, you know, I also needed a psych consult.

Myriam Bohémier · 6:32:12

So it's just interesting because most of us, some of us haven't gone through a serious health journey. But I think those that have and those that can imagine it, we kind of expect that our caregivers are going to be very attentive, very sympathetic, because that's part of the healing and encouragement process, and that we would be confident that they're trying to figure out what's going on and then treating us to the best of their ability. But you've been watching these proceedings and you're sharing the same thing, is that that's not happening at all. It's almost like they just want you to go away. Because they can't touch you. And in your case, um, you got a letter from the Toronto— Toronto Health that I found shocking because you've got physical harm. You're basically reporting being disabled, and you get a letter from Toronto Public Health which tells you to get the second shot.

Myriam Bohémier · 6:33:12

David, can you pull that up? I don't know if we're going to be able to read it or not on this small screen. Yes, we can. So, um, yeah, so this is just the letter and the recommendations. And this is from Sukana Balachandra, family doctor at the time, right? So the recommendations— so the TPH is Toronto Public Health, right? Yeah. So TPH recommends this client receives a second dose of an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine as soon as possible, if not already done, especially in the context of the circulating Delta virus. So you've basically become disabled. You've got skin peeling off, you're bruised all over the place, and it says right there, brain fog, tremors, everything. There it lists, it lists your— lists my—.

Dianne Spaulding · 6:34:05

It lists all of my pins and needles The— I don't know why it says arthritis, or I don't know, but whatever that is, I don't know. Yeah, so the paragraph before, events, brain fog, tremors, and bruising, that they're saying, okay, she is experiencing severe unusual events and listing them. And then the recommendation is, please step up and get another one, and because you're not dead yet.

Myriam Bohémier · 6:34:30

And we're, we're seeing the pattern here. I mean, another of the witnesses today got a letter in PEI from the public health office and I remember, you know, Drew yesterday, same thing. Remember, she's basically disabled and 3 specialists got involved without her even asking if she should take her second shot. And Alberta Public Health started calling her to get her second shot.

Dianne Spaulding · 6:34:53

They were calling me too. Yeah, they were. Yeah, they were calling me too to get— I thought, then I'm just like, yeah, that's not happening. But actually, my family doctor was She was pretty good in the beginning. She sent me to a neurologist, internal medicine. Yeah, I went to so many specialists, rheumatologists. I think I went to all of them. Half of them just said, why are you here? Why did your doctor send me? The neurologist actually was very kind and said, you know, because I actually joined the Can Cove Long COVID clinic study and they did all kinds of blood work and they actually ended up diagnosing me with FND, which is a joke. It's just like saying you have anxiety as far as I'm concerned. But, you know, so when I got to the neurologist, he said, yeah, you do not have FND, you indeed have essential tremors.

Dianne Spaulding · 6:35:53

And he said, I'm going to tell you right now, you're not the first the first person to come through my door with side effects from the vaccine. And he said, I am so sorry this happened to you, but we don't know what to do. And that, that—.

Myriam Bohémier · 6:36:08

This is Mount Sinai Hospital also apologized for you, to you, for 20 months later, 20 months after acknowledging vaccine injury in your—.

Dianne Spaulding · 6:36:19

Yeah, 20 months later I got a call from Mount Sinai. It was in the evening and he said he was the head of the emergency department, the physician of the head of the— I can't remember what he said exactly, but I think that's what he said. And he called to apologize.
