It would appear that the mRNA vax triggered an uncommon autoimmune response for you. Such reactions are not common, yet have been documented. Since they are transient there has been very little attention given to them.
It is extremely unlikely that you got a bad batch of Pfizer. Moderna and Pfizer are different formulations, so having differing reactions to them is unsurprising.

Such reactions could be common, but people:
1) walk around clueless/don't know their bodies
2) don't report issues "How will that help me?"

I’m not sure I understand what you’re saying. How do those two points connect here?

If people don't report/just assume their Dr filed the report, issues go unreported.
I suspect this is largely the case in USA at minimum.
Mine luckily cleared up after a few days, but I got it again the day after I got my 2nd dose, which also fortunately cleared up after a few days. Got Moderna for my booster and did not experience that with Moderna at all. I'm starting to wonder if I got unlucky and just got 2 bad batches from Pfizer or if it was possibly psychosomatic / stress-originating rather than chemical/biological.
One suggestion I have, something that helped me feel a lot more comfortable and secure in the world was asking family / close friends if they had noticed changes with me lately, and leaning on them to help me reconstruct a timeline of when it started happening. I hope that can offer assistance to you, but definitely see a doctor (or multiple doctors, if you are unsatisfied with the treatment, or want further confirmation of the diagnosis / other ideas) too if you haven't already.
