Shy, I know you, like me, are no spring chicken but I think you were very unlucky. Sorry to hear about it.
Not forgetting "young" JT2, too! I suspect a lot of similar cases to ours have gone unreported. As I said, my own experience was that the NHS system was reluctant to admit the possibility of any connection to the vaccine, which isn't at all surprising.
I think there will be more to come on this subject in future times. I was very much "pro" vaccination until my illness occurred but I'm sure you'll understand why I won't be risking taking any further doses. If that places future restrictions on my lifestyle, I can live with that, in all senses of the expression.
