Second COVID19 vaccine was administered the evening of 4/16/21 around 6 pm. Extremely mild left arm (injection arm) pain that first evening. Felt more tired than usual so went to bed around 10 pm. Morning of 4/17/21, woke at 7:30 am with a high fever (101 degrees), chills, sweating, fatigue, headache, mild nausea. Fever and chills were very severe until around 2 pm, then tapered very slowly but remained impactful until bedtime around 11 pm. Between 8 am - 2 pm, I was sleeping on and off with a lot of sweating, chills, fever. Intermittent but not severe nausea during that timeframe as well. From 2 pm - 11 pm, was still having chills and sweating. Starting around 6 pm, muscles around hips and lower back were very sore--not painful but extremely uncomfortable. Slept from 11 pm on 4/17/21 to 8:30 am on 4/18/21. On the morning of 4/18/21, mild shortness of breath was noted while doing light stretching. Still felt slightly feverish and prone to sweating, but mostly feeling better. By 4/19/21, just slight shortness of breath occurred in the morning, but by that afternoon I was able to do a light workout/lift weights. On 4/20/21, no shortness of breath and full, deep breaths are felt. No other lingering symptoms.

Quickly after receiving the vaccine I started with a bad head ache, fever, chills, achy, tired, sore and weak. I tried to sleep it off, I did maintain a bad head ache for about 3 weeks after. I did not feel 100% for a few days. I then started with "allergies" - sinus pressure, stuffy nose. After a week I went to Minute clinic who diagnosed me with severe allergies and a sinus infection and put me on 7 days of Augmentin. Day 5 I was feeling worse (shortness of breath, tightness in chest, low energy) and called my primary dr asking for a change of medication. Out of protocol, my primary saw me outside and covid tested me, and prescribed z pack. The next day, I received the lab results that I tested positive for covid. At this point, it was day 15 since my "allergies" started which was discovered to have been covid the entire time. When the state called me for contact tracing they determined that I was at the end of having covid and was only contagious the first 6 days. I went for a new covid test 4 days later and it was negative. Around day 22 - 25 my headaches finally stopped, I started being able to catch my breath more and was getting more energy. I waited until 5/12 for second covid dose as primary care dr said to wait a month from testing positive. I had another head ache and soreness.

I took another at 9pm. I took another in the AM the next day. My throat had started to go down but my tongue and my lips were still swollen. As the day went on my tongue started to go down. By Saturday my lips were the only thing left that were still swollen but that was also going down. By Sunday I was all cleared.

Immediate numbness following injection. Later that evening ~7:00 p.m. joints and muscles in left arm/shoulder curled and seized-up. Tingling pins and needles with loss of sensation and dexterity. At bed time May 20th - continued pain, stiffness and swelling accompanied by high fever, chills, excessive sweating, and muscle convulsions. Intense ringing in ears. Next morning (May 21st) I had to miss work. Continued fever, chills, loss of appetite, mild nausea, nerve spasms and locked joints throughout entire body. I felt as though my body was poisoned. The weekend consisted of major fatigue and falling asleep during the day intermittently. Numb arms, weakened grip - could barely make a fist, and had a loss of coordination. Brain fog, delayed thoughts and physical responses. CONTINUED MUSCLE WEAKNESS AND NERVE SPASMS. I contacted doctor for help since my PCP's office was not open until Monday. I began taking Magnesium and B vitamins. I was drinking 1.5 gallons of water daily and still feeling thirsty. Called Doctor on the 24th to report involuntary muscle spasms in neck shoulders and lower back, joint stiffness, numbness, slowed circulation (pins and needles), and a vertigo-like falling sensation at bedtime. Cannot get to sleep comfortably without the spasms and my head rolling. He recommended Benadryl and Tylenol which I began taking which helped the numbness but not the shakiness and nerve spasms. He also offered a muscle relaxer, but I was concerned about waking up and driving to work in the early mornings so I declined since having trouble waking up with all the fatigue. It didn't matter anyway because since then I have missed work due to the sudden weakness, head fog, indigestion, and nerve tremors. Wednesday, I needed assistance going up and down stairs because my limbs felt limp like rubber bands. My joints are unusually cracking while my breathing is more labored. My resting heart rate was elevated and I could feel it beating harder than normal. Thursday, I drove myself to the E.R. because I feel as if I have aged 30 years in under a week. Their blood tests, EKG, and x-rays found nothing abnormal and I received fluids through an IV. However my nervous system feels absolutely shot. THIS IS NOT NORMAL. I WAS INCREDIBLY HEALTHY BEFORE THE SHOT. I WAS NOT INFORMED OF THESE RISKS. I LIVE A CLEAN, ACTIVE LIFESTYLE WITH REGULAR DIET AND EXERCISE. I HAVE NEVER NOT BEEN ABLE TO ARTICULATE MY BODY MOVEMENTS FLUIDLY AND PRECISELY. my doctor suspected I previously had an asymptomatic case of Covid, and that I had an allergic reaction directly related to the vaccine that attacked my nervous system. I FEEL SO MISERABLE AND WRONG. I worry about my quality of life from here on out even though I'm told these symptoms will pass. Today, over a week post my first shot, I have loss of sensation in my arms, tingling in my extremities and base of skull, neck, and lower back (worse at night and when resting). My nerves are still randomly firing and I feel shaky. My body feels as if it has slowed down its automatic functions.

in the pt's words received my 1st (5/5/21) and 2nd (5/26/21) doses of Pfizer at County Fairgrounds. I want to document my experience as I had some pretty severe reactions to my second dose. Evening of the 26th I got chills and a fever of 102.9F. I took one ibuprofen and the fever went away. The next morning I had a slight headache. Around noon I got intense chest pains/pressure that lasted 30 minutes. I could not take a full breath as it was very painful. On the 28th, I woke up with a terrible headache for no apparent reason. Some ibuprofen helped. After a few hours it was gone. At 2am on the 29th, I woke up with very intense stomach cramps. I went to the bathroom and was able to pass out some stool over the course of about 30 minutes in the bathroom, and the cramps went away. On May 31st, I got what seemed to be a blood clot in my left index finger. It went away after about 20 minutes but still felt sore the rest of the day.

Got 1st shot at 1430 1/4/21. Was sent back to my unit (OR). At 1455 got full body flush followed by tingling lips, tight throat, trouble swallowing and SOB. No obvious signs of swelling of the lips. Used inhaler for SOB which helped marginally. After 1.5 hrs tingling in lips and flushed skin went away. Throat tightness and SOB still remained but weren't progressing so went home after my shift. Later that night around 2100 took 1 25mg Benadryl. Tightness in throat and SOB improved. The next morning 1/5/21, I reported to work for my shift. Tightness and SOB was manageable at this point. At 0800 the tightness in my throat, trouble swallowing and SOB got significantly worse. I was scrubbed into a surgery and had to call for a replacement so I could take Benadryl. I took 1 25mg tablet and 2 puffs of my inhaler and went back to my case. After the Benadryl and inhaler, the tightness in my throat and SOB became slightly more manageable. At 1240 the symptoms came back and I took another Benadryl and 2 puffs of my inhaler with slight relief of symptoms. Stayed the rest of my shift continuing my inhaler as needed and a Benadryl every 4 hrs. At 1600 I developed a headache at the front of my head above my eyes like a weight was sitting there. The next day when I woke up 1/6/21, the tightness in my throat, SOB and headache were worse so I had to call into work. The headache that morning had progressed to 7 out of 10 pain and the pain then included my neck where it attaches to the skull. At 0830 I called employee health and they advised my to go to an urgent care. I was checked over by a PA and was prescribed prednisone 40 mg for 5 days along with Benadryl every 4 hrs and inhaler as needed. I was also nasal swabbed for Covid. After taking the steroid, the headache and neck pain, tightness in throat went away. The SOB also improved. Currently taking the steroid, Benadryl (every 4 hrs) and inhaler 2 puffs as needed. Symptoms are mostly controlled. 1/7/21 tried to cut back the Benadryl to every 6 hrs. Noticed a huge difference in my breathing and had an increase in SOB so went back to every 4 hrs. 1/8/21 still taking steroid and Benadryl every 4 hrs and inhaler. SOB is worse today even with taking Benadryl. Have an appointment with my PCP to talk about getting the 2nd shot.

I have an exercise bike at home, and tried to work out but had to stop after only half an hour of very low effort biking because I couldn't get a deep breathe. usually I can bike for an hour at high intensity no problem and have never had to stop because I felt like I couldn't breathe.

When I received my first dose of the Pfizer COVID shot I had no issues. When I received the second dose I had the vaccine injected and then I got up and walked to the monitoring room where we sit for 15 minutes. Immediately upon sitting down in that room I felt very woozy, lightheaded, and my heart was beating out of my chest. I checked my pulse on my smart watch and it was in the 80s but my resting HR is normally in the 60s or 70s. I got nervous at that point so I took some deep breaths and tried to relax and my symptoms improved within a minute. I sat for the remainder of the monitoring period and right at my 15 minute mark all of my symptoms returned. HR in the 100s, lightheaded like I was going to pass out, chest heaviness, and shortness of breath. I alerted the nurse in the monitoring room and she took my BP and HR and they have me a bottle of water. My throat felt a little weird too and I was worried that it was starting to close up, but I was able to swallow water normally. I remained in the monitoring room for about 15 more minutes and at that point my symptoms mostly resolved and I felt well enough to leave. For the next approx 48 hours I have had some mild- moderate chest heaviness. More worse in the initial 24-36 hours after the vaccination.

Beginning about 30-40 minutes after the injection I noticed that my throat was feeling strange, which quickly progressed to a mild allergic reaction causing my throat to feel blocked up (at around 1 hour after shot). I also noticed mild puffiness in my cheeks and around my jaw at around the same time that I first noticed the reaction. At an hour after the injection i could feel that my throat was somewhat tight and felt as though it was blocked, but I was still able to breathe with only very mild difficulty and chose not to seek medical attention. I took a full dose of Benadryl when I first noticed the reaction (at about 40 minutes after the injection) which controlled the symptoms and at about two and a half hours after the injection I could feel that my throat was beginning to loosen up and feel less blocked

At 8:45am, I woke up with a tight pain in my chest on the left side and pain in my left arm, left side of neck and left ear. The pain was severe enough that I considered going to the hospital because I thought I was having a heart attack, but decided not to because I am a healthy and fit 27year old. The pain got more severe. I alternated between laying down while struggling to take deep breaths and stretching because my left neck and arm hurt. I drank about 16oz of water. At around 11am I threw up water. At around 12pm I was able to fall back asleep. When I woke up around 1:30pm I felt much better with just very mild symptoms and by about 4pm I felt completely better. I have had no symptoms since.

The day after receiving my second dose of the COVID vaccine, I began to feel fatigued and started getting body aches (June 9). By June 10 I was taking 500mg of ibuprofen and having to lay down at work because of back pain, upper stomach pain, chest pain and migraine. By June 11 I began running a fever of about 101 degrees. The pain was getting progressively worse so I was on bed rest for the next few days, by this time (June 12-13). Every morning I was waking up with the sweats, but specifically on the morning of June 13, I woke up at 4:30am, shivering and sweating. I was to the point where my entire body was vibrating for 1.5hrs while I was profusely sweating. I had a sore throat so bad that I could hardly swallow. I was taking 1,000mg of Tylenol, which would only improve my symptoms about 30%. on June 14, I got a COVID, Flu and Strep test with the county, all which came back negative. At this point, I was in so much pain that I was not able to work or get out of bed, so I knew I needed to see a Doctor (after being told by many nurses that I should just "push through" the pain). On June 16 I was running a 103 temperature and went to urgent care (day 8 of side-effects). I was tested for Mono, also negative. The Doctor determined I was suffering from adverse side effects from the vaccine. I have this in a report. I was prescribed prednisone which almost instantly helped with all of the inflammation/pain. Today marks day 13, I still have slight back pain but have been taking the prednisone daily. I still am having shortness of breath, chest pain and upper stomach pain. The only thing that has truly helped the other symptoms is the prednisone.

My initial reaction to the vaccine was extreme tingling and falling asleep of my left arm where I had the injection. This occurred for the entire day of June 7th. On June 8th I woke up with slight tingling in my left arm but also with chest pain. A couple of hours after that I had shortness of breath and a tight throat. The tightness in my throat and shortness of breath lasted off and on throughout that day and the chest pain remained the same. The next few days my chest pain still remained with a tingling sensation and a fullness that came and went. That Friday, June 11th I had to use my inhaler as my throat felt very tight and I was having a hard time breathing. My heart immediately started beating so fast and I knew from using my inhaler here and there that I have never had that reaction. I went into urgent care that night and was told I have Costochondrtis.

At 2:00 am in the following midnight, I started shivering. I couldn?t control my body and my jaw. This is the weirdest experience I?ve ever have in my life. Then I took my temp, 101.5. I followed the instruction, drunk a lot of water. Then thing got worse. I couldn?t stop vomiting. Even drinking water made me nauseous. I also couldn?t lie one my back bc this position made me dizzy and cannot breath smoothly. As a result, I spent whole night sitting on my bed, drinking water and then vomiting. Temp kept raising. In the morning, I couldn?t stand these symptoms. And I took one tablet Tylenol with some watermelon. I started sweating, A LOT. The med lowered my temp but not stop the symptoms. Still vomit, headache, joint/muscle pain, dizzy. The only thing I can do it stuck in my bed and breath. After two days, on Sunday , things finally got better. During this period, I took Tylenol every 6hrs and drink a lot of water. My vaccinator informed me it was better to let the body fight for the vaccine, but I really cannot do that. Without Tylenol I cannot survive. Anyway, the lady who gave me vaccine is really nice and knowledgeable. I kind of believe I am gonna have high Level of antibody since I have such strong reaction.

On Friday night I had increased heart rate and couldn't catch my breath. The ambulance came and did an EKG where everything was normal. They took me to the ER. When I got there, they wheeled me out into the waiting area. While I was there, I was sitting there for about 2-3 hours. I noticed that my heart rate was not spiking anymore, and my breathing was better. I asked to be discharged without being seen. On 4/19, I went to pick up my daughter after a walk. When I got back, I was gasping for air and had chest pain. I went to the ER where they told me I had an elevated D dimer. They referred me to a cardiologist. They did all the CT scans and said they did not see anything, so they discharged me. On 4/14 I saw the cardiologist, who said he does not think it was due to pericardial effusion/pericarditis which I was diagnosed with after the birth of my daughter in June 2019. He had done an echo which was normal in October. I also saw my PCP where my blood pressure medication was changed to amlodipine and I was referred to a pulmonologist. I saw doctor who did a bunch of tests and did not find anything. He suggested I had costochondritis and put me on Toradol and an asthma pump. The asthma pump did not help. On 5/7, I had extreme chest pain where I could not move my arm. I went to the ER where they did a scan of my heart to check for fluid and a D dimer test. Since receiving the shot, I noticed my tonsils would swell up after eating. I had to stop eating and went on an ensure diet. I went to an allergist that said I was severely allergic to rice, a dog, but I was never allergic to anything before. I went back to the cardiologist where the PA said even though there is nothing wrong, maybe there is unseen myocarditis or pericarditis. The medication messed with my stomach. I went to check that everything was fine with my lungs where everything was deemed fine. On 5/27, I did a stress test which was fine. On 6/2, I had experienced shortness of breath again. I was unable to work normally and had to stop working. Doctor did tests for inflammatory diseases Mitochondrial M2 antibodies was in the middle range. This is inconclusive. I went to doctor who ran a lot of tests and found that Sedimentation rate was too high, Comprehensive metabolic rate was normal, CMV Igg: positive. He said perhaps I have long haul COVID. The antibody test showed I was positive for the vaccine antibodies but not the true COVID antibody. He suggested it could be an inflammatory issue. I saw an ENT for my throat who put me on antibiotics. The antibiotics helped but when I got off, I had another flare up. I was put on more antibiotics. On 6/29, I went to another cardiologist who did a contact MRI. He saw a swollen left atrium but said it was overall normal. I also saw a pulmonologist to notify them that the shortness of breath is still sometimes present. I saw a GI who did a test and found that I had erosive gastritis. I was taking metoprolol and tarivid. I still have stomach discomfort.

Second dose of COVID vaccine (Pfzier/BioNTech) received Friday morning around 8:00, I left work about an hour early that day due to rising nausea, migraine and fatigue. By the time I got to my car in the parking garage I had thrown up and was so dizzy that I called my boyfriend to come pick me up. When I got home I immediately laid down to take a nap. 3 hours later I woke up very sore and achy and still had a migraine. I remained in bed and later that night I spiked a fever as high as 101.8 fahrenheit. I had severe chills and the aches were so bad that my bones hurt all over and it felt like someone was stabbing me with a metal broom handle. Pain spiked to 8 on the pain scale and with the length of time I had this pain, it was one of the worst experiences of my life. The dizziness and fatigue caused me to need help to get out of bed to use the restroom. I took ibuprofen frequently and Nyquil at night to help relieve the effects without it doing little more than taking the edge off. Saturday night was the same as Friday night with no relief of symptoms. Fever remained around 100.9. Sunday night it dropped to 99.8 with chills, dizziness and fatigue still remaining but aches slightly lessening. Monday night I was still dizzy and weak but not nearly as in much pain and fever had subsided. Tuesday I started to feel more normal by the end of the night, just easily out of breath and off and on again headache.

48 hours after the vaccine my mouth began itching after eating. It happened during breakfast and lunch this day, and then the next morning at breakfast, which is when I became worried. My throat began feeling tight, felt like it had mucus in it and I needed to clear it. My mouth was itching and my tongue felt tingly. Four days after the vaccine my tongue started to swell so I called my doctor. I saw him the Tuesday, 3/2 after the vaccine and he said my thyroid was swollen and felt I was having an allergic reaction to the vaccine. He did an allergy panel and lab work for my thyroid, all tests came back within normal limits. He referred me to an allergist and said to take benadryl every six hours. A few days later my bottom lip started to swell and my tongue ached. I was also having intermittent chest pains for about five weeks. Then my lymph nodes in my throat started throbbing. I saw the allergist on 4/6 and he advised to cancel the second dose. He did lab work to check for autoimmune disorders and inflammation but tests came back normal. He advised on 4/19 to take allegra two times a day for three weeks and we will follow up. Ongoing symptoms are mouth itching after eating, tingling in throat, and itching on throat and neck, and on and off swelling of my bottom lip. I have also experienced lightheadedness and ocular migraines.

Within seconds, my body temperature increased, my limbs started to tingle, and my forehead began dripping with sweat. I called the facility worker in the area and asked "Is it normal to get this hot and tingly?". As my body seemed to lose strength, she told me to put my head down and flagged down a paramedic. I was wheeled to the back (as symptoms were increasing), and was laid on a bed. They measured my vitals and provided me with water. I was so weak that I couldn't open my eyes and was told that I was clinically hyperventilating (I personally felt calm prior to laying on the bed). I was monitored for about 45 minutes until I was picked up by a family member. I returned home and slept for almost 18 hours straight, and could hardly move for almost 3 days (as I continued to sleep the following day).

(After the tightening sensation began I started to panic a little which certainly contributed to the heart rate elevation), The provider monitored me to make sure that no breathing issues were present and I took two chewable Benadryl. I stayed at the clinic until one hour had passed and returned home. The provider called me later to check on my status. I want to emphasize that i was not at all nervous or anxious about receiving the shot but I very stupidly had alcohol in my system.

I had lymph node swelling under my left armpit & joint pain that began May 12 & resolved within a couple days. I am a competitive marathoner (currently training ) & run everyday & noticed shortness of breath/chest tightness & elevated heart rate when I was running, worse during hard workouts. I think that began around May 14. I am still having elevated heart rate and some shortness of breath during hard workouts.

The first dose caused mild soreness and some discomfort which I thought was anxiety, since it disappeared after the waiting period. Almost immediately after the second dose, I began to have discomfort in my chest and to feel woozy. I thought it was anxiety. I left the pharmacy and began to have chest pains, difficulty breathing, and shortness of breath. I called the CDC Vaccine hotline to ask for advice about the reactions, and I was told my reactions were normal, and people have the same kind all the time. I took a Benadryl and went to sleep. It has been two weeks. If I become excitable or exert myself, my chest begins to hurt and it can be difficult to breathe. I have never had asthma, and I have always been active. It might be getting worse since it can feel like heartburn even if I'm not even doing anything.

Cough, shortness of breath and intermittent wheezing remain as well as some chest pressure, sore throat, headache and chills. Coughing fits are bad enough to cause urinary incontinence but I did give birth 4 months ago so this may not be significant. No signs of allergic reactive such as redness, urticaria or swelling.

I did not seek medical attention while at the clinic. Once home I took two Benadryl and contacted my primary provider for advice. She advised that because of my history of anaphylactic reactions to medications and the throat swelling I experienced to not receive the second shot. She suggested I take Benadryl and seek emergent medical attention if my symptoms worsened. Symptoms continued for several hours. I administered two more pills of Benadryl following the package instructions. The symptoms tapered over time. For days I was wheezy and my asthma was not controlled. I also had small runny nose and flared up my vocal cord dysfunction and asthma symptoms. With in a week and a half I was able to run again with out experiencing breathing difficulty that is abnormal. My breathing is still not 100% but I can not confirm that it is a result of the shot or my asthma not being completely stable.

I have had similar reactions in the past to cleaning products and pesticides and usually take a benadryl, though I do carry an epipen and had one with me at the time. Instead of going back in the convention center for medical attention I took a benadryl and waited in the parking garage for about an hour and felt the throat restriction ease a bit. About 10 hours later around 8pm the tightness came back suddenly over about 10 minutes and I took another benadryl. The next morning around 7am I had one more round of tightening and took one more benadryl, and it stopped after that. I told my doctor about it a few days later.

I had an allergic reaction to the Pfizer vaccine. After 10-15 minutes from receiving the vaccine, my face got itchy but it was mild so I left after 25 minutes of waiting. Over the next hour the itching got more noticeable (no rash) and my throat felt slightly swollen, although I had no difficulty breathing or talking. I called a pharmacy that advised I take Benadryl, which helped. The next morning my face was still itching and it felt like there was a lump in my throat. I went to urgent care and received a steroid shot and prescription for Atarax, although the pharmacy was closed, so I just ended up taking more Benadryl. Today, 2 days after the vaccine, my face no longer itches and my throat feels normal. Just feel moderately fatigued, although I think that is a normal side effect.

Within less than an hour receiving the vaccime, I started feeling sharp stabbing pain on my right side below my breast. It was for a short period at first then stopped.

I also experienced shortness of breath and difficulty breathing especially when I make efforts like walking up stairs. On the afternoon of Friday April 9th, I went to Health center to get checked after reporting my symptoms. The doctor said that it could be an inflammation of the lungs so recommended rest and taking Ibuprofen to help with the pain and if symptoms persist, I go get checked again. I felt slightly better on Saturday but from Sunday evening, the pain came back and got worse Monday night. I couldn't sleep on my back or sides, heavy breathing, shortness of breath I felt all night. I went to the hospital physician ordered different X-rays that came back negative. Her diagnosis is that I have inflammation of the lungs but not sure what the cause is. She prescribed predniSONE.

This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). This is the second of two reports of the same patient receiving the second dose of BNT162B2. A 30-years-old female patient received the second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in arm left on 17Mar2021 (Lot Number: EN6201) as single dose (at the age of 30) for covid-19 immunization. Medical history included ongoing asthma (diagnosed about 10 years ago), Basedow's disease from 01Mar2021 and ongoing, hypersensitivity, hyperthyroidism, anxiety. First dose of BNT162B2 was given on 22Feb2021 and she felt sick to her stomach, nausea, had no energy, 160 heart rate atrial fibrillation, hand tremors, shortness of breath, she felt exhausted, low grade fever, thyroid storm, felt tired, shaking, flu symptoms. Concomitant medications included levocetirizine dihydrochloride (XYZAL) taken for allergy from 2020 to 24Feb2021, guaifenesin (MUCINEX) taken for hypersensitivity from Dec2020 to 20Feb2021. When she got the second vaccine, her heart rate was high again. She did have a thyroid storm the day after the second dose (18Mar2021) and she was in the emergency room again since her heart rate was so high. It was reported that the vaccine did cause her thyroid storm. She knows vaccinations have to do with the immune systems, and if she has an autoimmune disease, she is thinking it may have come from it. States two doctors are certain that it triggered an immune response and wanted her to report this. She could barely stand up or talk, she was so short of breath and is guessing that was from her heart. She had normal flu like symptoms from the vaccine but does not think it was related to her thyroid. She has always had little cold symptoms after getting a vaccination. First night she felt very exhausted, tired. She had a low grade fever that Tylenol took care of and it went away within a day. She felt run down and it was vaccination related. The second day (19Mar2021) she had really bad hand tremors that moved into her body. She thought the shaking was from the vaccination and she took a video of it. She did not really have any other symptoms yet, then started to get really fatigued. She went to ER and her heart was really elevated. Each time she went to the doctor or the ER, her heart rate would be 20 beats faster then 20 beats faster again. The outcome of her heart rate was high again / heart elevated/her heart rate would be 20 beats faster then 20 beats faster again, short of breath was recovering. The outcome of guessing that was from her heart, exhausted/tired/ felt run down/ really fatigued was not recovered. The outcome of the other events was unknown.

Within 15 minutes of the vaccination, I felt something traveling first to my left arm where I received the vaccine, then to the chest then to my right arm then to my torso. I became extremely tired and lost a lot of strength, especially in my arms. It took significantly more energy than usual to lift up my arms. It became a little hard to breathe (I did have three masks on for precaution, so I took off one.) then I briefly felt tension/stress in my heart. These symptoms went away in less than 30 min. I had a really sore arm, which lasted me a few days afterwards. It was painful to raise that arm above the shoulder for three days or so. I was very tired for the next 2 or 3 days. Then 9 days after the injection, I woke up in middle of the night with pain in the front side of my left armpit, the part that connects to my chest. It felt swollen. It lasted 2-3 days. I saw a small red patch next to the injection site. The pain came back yesterday. Every time my left upper arm touches my torso, it hurts. In general, I am feeling fatigue and under the weather.

When I received the 2nd dose of the vaccine, I was 26 weeks and 3 days pregnant. My estimated due date is 07/10/2021. I received the vaccine mid-morning on 4-6-2021. The following day (4-7-2021), I experienced arm soreness, fatigue, muscle aches, and chills. Those symptoms were subsiding by the evening of 4-7-2021. Early in the morning of 4-8-2021, I was wakened from sleep because my heart felt like it was beating too fast and too hard. This experience was most intense when lying on my left side, and at its most intense, I felt like I couldn't quite catch my breath. Sitting upright seemed to slow my heart rate. Walking caused it to increase again, and I felt more winded than usual walking short distances. I contacted my OB-GYN when her office opened on 4-8-2021 and told her what I'd been experiencing, and she instructed me to go to the hospital to be evaluated. I was admitted and monitored in Labor and Delivery continuously all day. My heart rate was elevated. My fetus's heart rate was normal. I had an EKG which was normal. I had labs done (CBC, metabolic, thyroid, progesterone), and all were normal. I was not found to be dehydrated, but I was given a liter of fluids IV as a precaution. Over the course of the day, my heart rate returned to normal, and I was discharged.

hard to hear at times; horrible pain from head to toe; couldn't see anything; couldn't breathe at all; face turned green; fever; aching in her legs; extreme exhaustion; blacking out; diarrhea; sweating; unable to talk; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer. A 30-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 06Apr2021 12:00 (Batch/Lot Number: EW0150) as 1st dose, single, at the age of 30-years-old for COVID-19 immunization. The patient had no medical/family history and concomitant medications. The patient went to go get her second shot of Pfizer covid vaccine but they wouldn't give it to her based on her reactions to the first dose. They said there was a chance of anaphylaxis reaction to the second shot. The patient reported blacking out, diarrhea, sweating and unable to talk. She consulted with her healthcare professional regarding whether to get the second shot and they didn't know. She asked if her reactions were normal. She doesn't know what to do whether to get a second shot given her reaction. It was mentioned that the patient was hard to hear at times. She got the vaccine on 06Apr2021 around noon and she was fine until around 3:30 am. She woke up in horrible pain from head to toe, she thought maybe she just needed to pee, she didn't know what was going on. She stood up and she blacked out like she was about to faint. She couldn't see anything, like it was completely black. She got to bathroom and she couldn't breathe at all, she couldn't talk. She thought she needs to go to the hospital, but she couldn't talk. Her face turned green, she had diarrhea, she was like dripping wet. At this point, she could sort of breathe. She felt like she was being held under water, still dripping sweat. She has recovered completely from these symptoms. The severity of symptoms was so severe she doesn't know if she had a fever at the same time, it was hard to tell. With the breathing part, she was so freaked out by that, so it's hard to know for sure, maybe yes. She may have had a low fever. She had a fever that night to the point where she was dripping on the floor. She has aching in her legs. She went to the doctor thinking she had Lyme disease, which she doesn't. Since that vaccine, she's had very, somewhat severe leg aches and extreme exhaustion like all the time. she can hardly go to work sometimes. Everybody has days they are tired, but this was different. She had to come home at 2pm and lay down for like five hours. She stated it was persisting. She had a blood test recently and everything came back perfect on 26Apr2021. She thought she had Lyme disease because of all the symptoms she was having, and it all came back negative. She didn't exactly get turned away. They said they didn't feel comfortable giving her the second dose of vaccine. The patient stated if a nurse tells her they don't feel comfortable, she wouldn't feel comfortable until she speaks to Pfizer. The nurse told her she had to go to an allergist and rheumatologist. The nurse said the same thing, the nurse told her that she should have gone to the hospital, but she wasn't thinking at that moment. She was just at a loss of what to do. That day at the hospital, they were scared with the second vaccine that she could go into anaphylaxis and she's not sure what to do. The patient had no other vaccines administered on the same date of Pfizer suspect and no other vaccinations within 4 weeks. The event hard to hear at times started on an unknown date while other events started on 07Apr2021 and ended the same day. The outcome of the events aching in her legs and exhaustion was not recovered, hard to hear at times was unknown while for other events was recovered. The events "she blacked out, like she was about to faint" was assessed as serious medically significant. No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information expected.

About a week after my second dose I developed fever and flu like symptoms. I took 2 covid tests and they came out negative. My flu like symptoms worsened and persisted for several weeks. On 04/21/2021 my neck began to hurt and swell, mostly on my right side. The following day the pain worsened to the point of calling out of work and seeking help at an urgent care. At this point, the lymph nodes in my neck appeared to swell on both sides. Swallowing became difficult and I struggled to eat mashed potatoes. In the following days my neck began swelling more and it became difficult to drink water. The pain level rose to a 7 out of 10 and my throat was so swollen that when I tried to drink water or protien shakes part of them would go up my nose and down the wrong pipe in my throat. It became difficult to talk and my lymph nodes seemed extra swollen. I went to an emergency room in but the doctor was unsure of any treatment and sent me home to rest. I declined lab tests. I had sever chills, sweating and fever. On 04/30 My symptoms began to improve and on 05/02/2021 I was able to eat again. At this point I'd lost 13 pounds and was weak.

The day after my second Pfizer shot i felt overwhelmed and shortness of breath. I felt like i was going to faint. I got hot. I went to work the next day and felt similar symptoms of a panic attack while at work which us what i thought it was. My stress levels seemed normal so i wasnt sure why i felt anxious all of a sudden. But then i felt the tightening of the chest and shortness of breath daily ever since. Everyone keeps telling me its because of my anxiety but it just came out of nowhere and doesnt seem right at all. I started researching it and saw the article from the CDC regarding myocarditis being linked to the covid shot and i strongly without a doubt believe that is what's really going on with me currently. I am going to try and go to Urgent care either tomorrow or Friday to speak with someone.

Day after vaccine, experienced elevated heart rate, pain at injection site, fatigue, and dizziness which passed over 3 days. Developed itchy skin and elevated heart rate again about 7 days after vaccination. Itchy skin subsided after 3-4 days but elevated heart rate has been getting worse since day of vaccination. Normal heart rate was 60-70 pre-vaccination, but since vaccination has been 85+ at all times even when at rest. Heart rate randomly spikes to 100-120 when resting and remains there for hours which is causing dizziness and disabling me. I am always short of breath even at rest. I experience disturbing heart palpitations. Every time I stand my heart rate spikes to 120-140+, I get dizzy and very short of breath, and cannot walk for long without having to sit down again. I was diagnosed with POTS about 3 years ago, but it had been in remission for about 2 years. These symptoms are similar to my POTS, so I believe the vaccination has caused my POTS to come out of remission or possibly caused heart inflammation. It is now over 2 weeks since vaccination and all my other side effects have cleared, but my elevated heart rate continues to worsen. I called 911 and was seen by paramedics on 6/1/2021 due to heart rate randomly spiking to 140 and refusing to go down for hours, causing me to feel faint. I declined hospital transport as heart rate went down to 110 after paramedics arrived.

Developed numbness and tingling in right upper extremity on 3/13/21. Was seen in the ER on 3/14/21, they thought it could have been an electrolyte imbalance so they checked bloodwork, but it was normal. Then over the course of several days, the numbness and tingling spread to left upper extremity and bilateral lower extremities. Developed difficulty with fine motor coordination in both hands as well as difficulty walking. Was seen by PCP who ordered more labs including inflammatory markers and vitamin D and B12 levels. Inflammatory markers were normal. Vitamin D and B 12 levels were mildly low, but not enough to cause symptoms. Was then referred to a neurologist. Had an MRI of brain and cervical spine to rule out stroke or MS, was normal except for a mild bulging disc at C5-C6. The symptoms of numbness, tingling, difficult fine motor coordination of hands/fingers, and trouble walking resolved on it's own after 2 weeks. Then for several weeks after that, there was noticeably more muscle twitches in all four extremities which have since resolved.

The symptoms started with having a hard time breathing going jus down the stairs or to the car being short distances. As the week went on it suddenly got worse as now I am coughing profusely with a hard time breathing as if I am gasping for air. I have noticed it gets worst when the weather is rainy and dewy like, but when it is sunny and no storm like weather it seems to be better. Recently the as the weather changes my symptoms have gotten worst again. I cough so much that I vomit and now when I eat food I can not eat food with out coughing and it feels as if my throat is closing when I eat so I do not eat a lot of food. I did not have this issue before the vaccine and after I got the vaccine now I am having all of these issues.

FOLLOW-UP TO A PREVIOUSLY SUBMITTED VAERS REPORT 0949661-1 Notes per Medical Records and patient history: On 15 Jan 2021, went to ER - Chest pain, tingling of right arm, nausea, elevated BP and heart rate. One hour after vaccine receipt on 14 Jan, experienced 30-45 min episode of right-sided chest pain with radiation to right arm. Later that afternoon, similar episode of chest pain. Awoke in middle of night with similar episode. Episode today more severe and associated with lightheadedness and near syncope. No leg swelling or rashes. PHYSICAL EXAM: WNL. Released in stable condition with instructions to follow-up with PCM. Per patient - EKG was reported as normal. Vital signs were normal except BP 140/84 (higher than usual for patient). No labs done. Anxiety considered a factor. 18 Jan 2021, ER visit - Several intermittent episodes of chest pain since 14 Jan. Now, more midsternal and lasting longer; non-exertional and non-positional. No SOB; no diaphoresis. No fever/chills, myalgias, cough, sore throat, nausea/vomiting/diarrhea. Initial BP 157/90. PHYSICAL EXAM: WNL. CXR and ECG normal. Treated with Toradol. Cardiology consulted and recommended obtaining a Troponin, D-dimer, and CRP, and trial of Colchicine and Naprosyn, and to schedule a stress echo. DX: Chest pain, unspecified 26 Feb 2021, ER visit - Chest pain intermittently x 7 weeks, with increase in pain for past several hours. Pain described as tightness across bottom of lungs and upper abdomen. Seen by Cardiology with no evidence of ischemia or pericarditis. Took colchicine x 3 days with no relief. Since Cardiology work-up, pain decreased to 1/10 intensity. While having dinner tonight, felt sudden onset of stabbing pain in mid-sternal region. Also noted onset of associated shortness of breath. Current chest pain is localized to mid-sternal region; exacerbated with deep breaths and somewhat alleviated with lying down. Pain now is 6/10 after taking naproxen prior to ER arrival. Also reports new onset frequent headaches and nausea. Had brain MRI yesterday and is awaiting Rheumatology evaluation for possible autoimmune disease. BP 143/81. PHYSICAL EXAM: WNL. Treated with GI cocktail (felt worse after). Had bedside ultrasound (normal gall bladder; no gall stones). ECG normal/no changes. Troponin - negative. CBC, CMP, Lipase unremarkable. Possibly inflammatory/chest wall pain. Continued Naproxen recommended. 3 Mar 2021, Rheumatology consult - Acute onset of syndrome characterized by chest pain with some radiation to the right side and intermittently to the right shoulder, episodic, moderate to intense, partially responsive to naproxen. Malaise, fatigue, especially in the morning; decreased exercise tolerance due to lower energy. Also reports recent frequent, intermittent headaches - bilateral temporal. No history of chronic headaches. Episodes interspersed "good days" without chest pain but with persistent malaise, fatigue, decreased tolerance to exercise. Decreased tolerance to exercise is not so much dyspnea on exertion but fatigue and feeling spent after half a workout of what she was able to do before. No hair loss, rashes, sicca syndrome, oral ulcers, pleuritic chest pain, GI changes, inflammatory arthritis, muscle weakness or neurological complaints. PHYSICAL EXAM: WNL 17 Feb 2021- ANA 1:40 speckled. Negative ANCA, complement components C3, C4, urinalysis, SPEP ASSESSMENT/PLAN: Onset about 2 hours after the 1st dose of Pfizer Covid 19 vaccine in very healthy individual, physically fit, helicopter pilot. Unremarkable physical exam, laboratory tests and recent stress echo. Negative MRI of brain. Doubt a systemic autoimmune disorder. Discussed prevalence of low titer ANA in general population and relatively low predictive power of test. Recent studies of the vaccine have reported some patients with complaints of pain and findings of enlarged lymph nodes,; she has no findings to suspect myocarditis. Aortitis cannot be ruled out. The onset 2 hours after the 1st dose of the vaccine in a previously very healthy individual suggests some form of reaction. Pericarditis has not been found on echocardiogram. I wonder if a cardiac MRI with and without gadolinium may be useful. Alternatively, a CT scan of the chest with contrast may be useful. Specific autoantibodies were ordered. Recommended another trial of colchicine 0.6 mg daily x 2 or 3 weeks along with Naprosyn 500 mg 1 to 2 times daily. 23 Mar 2021, Rheum follow-up - ASSESSMENT/PLAN: Unusual, new onset, episodic chest pain, short lived, associated with malaise and decreased tolerance to exercise. Naprosyn, when used, helps for the day...Discussed the option of observing and treat symptomatically and continue to do studies or consultations as needed or to intervene, on an empirical basis with short course of prednisone assuming some unresolved inflammatory process. ( 20 mg in the morning x 4 days, 15 mg x 4 days, 10 mg x 4 days, and 5 mg x 4days). Ordered CRP, CBC, SPEP, ESR. 26 Apr 2021, Pulmonary (video) - referred for evaluation of atypical chest pain and exertional dyspnea. 30-year-old CG helicopter pilot who describes being in very good general health until clinical episode began in Jan. She is a runner and was training for marathon at baseline...2 hours after her 1st dose of COVID vaccination, she felt rapid onset chest tightness, more on right side. Right arm felt numb; seen in emergent care...Symptoms include right sided chest heaviness and pain, now migrating to left side. Can be stabbing pain in nature. No prior similar symptoms. Denies asthma as kid. One pneumonia in second grade. Never smoker; no second hand smoke. Helicopter pilot, some jet fuel exposure, flies for Coast Guard. Has not had second dose of COVID vaccine. From onset to now, initial improvement, some fatigue early on, 2-3 weeks later fatigue on plateau, then headaches, pain on both sides of chest, prednisone given and fatigue improved, headaches went away but then came back, milder, short term in nature. Chest pain has increased to constant as weight in bottom of chest. Was big runner before, training for marathon, now down to running a mile, exertional chest pain and heaviness, stabbing pain usually low down sometimes right of sternum. Takes few hours to subside. Treatment included a prednisone taper, made chest symptoms worse but made fatigue and headaches better. Colchicine led to no improvement. Currently on Naprosyn and Tylenol for pain. CLINICAL IMPRESSION: Never smoker, good baseline health, runner. 4 months ongoing R>L chest pain, onset within 2 hours of 1st COVID vaccine. Fatigue, improved on steroids. Headaches, improved on steroids. Exertional dyspnea, persistent. Normal tests include chest radiograph, ESR, CRP, ECG, Stress test and reportedly CT, but not see by this provider; ANA 1:80 likely not clinically consequential. PLAN: Obtain outside CT scan; D-dimer and BMP; if positive, consider CT angiogram to r/o PE. PFT and exercise oximetry, COVID screen before test. Continue Tylenol/Naprosyn as need. Follow-up after testing complete. DISCUSSION: Explained story and normalcy of tests not suggestive of pneumonia, coronary syndrome, asthma, and apparently without underlying collagen vascular disease. Sterile pleurisy seems to fit her scenario better if there is a lung pathology present, but if severe enough to cause symptoms this profound for this long, surprising no lab markers for inflammation are positive. PE can cause dyspnea and chest pain and not show up on x-ray or on noncontrast CT, which was what she reports having had. Would be extremely unusual to cause pain this far out from onset, and hard to explain increase in symptoms with prednisone use. For dyspnea, recommend PFTs first, and for possible clot, review outside CT initially, but in absence of clear answer, move forward with d-dimer check and if positive, then anticipate CT-angiogram to at least exclude dangerous processes. COVID-induced inflammation does not currently have a confirmatory test, although the timing of symptoms onset just after vaccine is noted. Follow-up after above testing. 21 Apr 2021, T-CON: Review of initial symptom onset - Experienced chest tightness within 2 hours of vaccine receipt. The next day, she did not wake up with chest tightness, but later that day while at work, she experienced chest tightness and right arm numbness. She went to the local clinic, who had her go to the ER; at the ER, they thought she was most likely having a panic attack. She reports having brief episodes of chest tightness on 15 - 17 Jan. On Monday, 18 Jan, the chest tightness lasted about 5 hours. She went to the ER and at that time, was told her ECG was abnormal. She was then referred to Cardiology; reports having normal stress test and imaging. Then toward the end of the month, she experienced increased fatigue (sleeping x 12-15 hours/day). She also started having severe headaches. During her evaluation, it was noted that she had a positive ANA, so she was referred to Rheumatology; told she did not have evidence of an autoimmune disease, but her symptoms were c/w post-COVID "long haulers". UPDATE AS OF 15 JUL 2021: Symptoms are about the same. Experiencing constant chest pain that occasionally gets worse. Severe headaches 2-3X/week.; no pattern in symptoms; they seem to come on spontaneously without a trigger. Initial Neurologist evaluation last week. No specific diagnosis, but assessed as borderline chronic migraines; will follow up later in the summer if the migraines continue. Between the Neurologist and PCM, initiated prescriptions - Riboflavin 400 mg/day, Magnesium oxide 250 mg 2x/day and Petadolex 75 mg 2x/day. Had first virtual appointment with Internal Medicine on 15 Jun; scheduled for a physical on 19Aug. Applied for the Clinic but appointment pending (told it would be in about 8 weeks.)

Developed a "scratchy throat approximately 20 minutes post vaccination. Symptoms worsened and she developed shortness of breath. Required evaluation and treatment in the Emergency Department. Received Benadryl, dexamethaxone, famotidine and solumedrol. Second COVID vaccine, no reaction with the first vaccine. ED provider notes below: This patient presented due to concern for allergic reaction to COVID-19 vaccine and was seen by myself immediately upon arrival. When in triage the triage nurse noted her oxygen saturation was 81% so she was placed on 2 L nasal cannula and brought directly back to her room. When placed in the room she was hooked up to the monitor and her oxygen saturation was 100% and I took her off of the nasal cannula and her oxygen saturation remained in the upper 90s. She had no stridor and respirations were nonlabored. She was speaking without difficulty and had no vocal changes. She did not appear to be in any acute distress. Her posterior oropharynx was widely patent and she had no uvula or tongue swelling or lip swelling. She did have some blotchiness to the upper chest area but no hives. Abdomen was soft and nontender. Pulse was regular. Blood pressure was stable. She was nontoxic in appearance. An IV was established and the patient was given Decadron and Benadryl for initial treatment.

After my first dose, the only symptom I had was soreness at the injection site lasting 1 day. 12 hours after my second vaccine, I developed muscle aches and chills that were gone the following morning when I woke up. 3 days after receiving my second dose, I developed hives and swelling on my entire body that progressed over 2 days. I also started to have some swelling in my throat by 4 days after the second dose and ended up going to immediate care for a steroid injection which began to provide relief by the next morning.

Pt developed post COVID vaccine side effects at 1000. Pt received COVID vaccine at 0932 by LVN. Pt complained of a numb throat, and said, "I cant seem to swallow my saliva well." This writer did an immediate assessment of patient's throat with flashlight, and no swelling, abnormal discharge, or discoloration noted. Pulse-ox that was available on hand was used on pt, and sats were 96% and HR 78. MA on site was asked to grab a complete VS machine for somewhere stat, for there was none on site. This writer reassured pt was going to be okay and to breathe normally, for assessed pt was breathing fast. This writer called every doctor listed on the "Contact List for COVID Vaccine Clinic," but there was no response. This writer then called Urgent Care and Minor Injury Clinic, but the doctors were busy with patients. Asked MAs from those areas to have a doctor call immediately for a patient here was symptomatic. Once VS got here, VS were taken, and pt was assessed again. Pt said there was no more numbness in her throat, but tongue was feeling itchy, and her body temp went from hot to cold. Intitial VS: Temp: 98.3 BP: 122/80 HR: 77 O2: 99% RR: 18 Dr from Urgent Care finally called. Background story given, and she ordered Diphenhydramine Cap 25mg (Benadryl) which this writer had on hand in the emergency kit. Order was on computer, but could not acknowledge or scan, so order detail was printed, and pt and I signed form together. Benadryl given at 1025. Dr also suggested that ID doctor be called. At 1030, I got a hold of Dr., gave her a background story, and she advised that the pt stay for another 30 mins to be observed and she would come see the pt. Dr. arrived at 1100, assessed the patient, and ordered Cetrizine Tab 10mg (Zyrtec) to give to pt, which Dr. had to get from another department. There was no Zyrtec available in emergency kit. Again, order was on computer, but could not acknowledge or scan, so order detail was printed, and pt and I signed form together. Zyrtec given at 1128. An additional Zrytec Tab 10mg was given at same time at 1128 "for home use" per Dr and per her order. VS set #2 taken at 1133 Temp: 98.1 BP: 133/94 HR: 63 O2: 100% RR: 16 Dr suggested that she schedule an appt to see an allergist and to get an allergy test done prior to the next dose of the COVID vaccine. Patient was feeling a lot better and more at ease. Pt left comfortably with no symptoms at 1200.

1/12 0715: Received Pfizer covid-19 vaccine dose 2 at end of shift. Went home to sleep after waiting 15 min. 1630: Woke up. Felt more tired than usual. 1900: Arrived at work. Felt fatigue and sore arm. 2000: Felt sore arm, fatigue, and mild HA. Drank coffee and this helped with fatigue and HA. 2100: Mild nausea starts. Still have sore arm. Less fatigue, no HA. Still able to eat with the nausea. 2200: Developed chills. I was putting up curtains in an isolation room and had to pause halfway through due to being short of breath as if I'd done something strenuous. I then was short of breath again walking specimens to lab, which is unusual for me. Walking samples to lab involves walking 400 ft and going up and down 1 flight of stairs. 2300: Coworkers keep asking me why I'm always out of breath. They are concerned. Chills are worse now and I go from feeling normal to feeling cold. My hands are like ice and I am gripping my arms to keep warm. I walk 2 samples to lab and each time I am dizzy on the way back. By the 2nd time I have to hold the wall to keep balance. I can no longer hide the side effects and a coworker offers me 650mg Tylenol. I gladly accept. I measure my spO2 and it is 97%. 1/13 0530: I am almost back to normal other than feeling fatigued. 0815: I get home and go to bed. My feet are ice cold so I have to wear socks, but my hands feel normal temperature. I feel like my blanket isn't warm enough. 1330: I wake up and feel absolutely miserable. I am going between having chills to having a hot flash. I can't seem to will myself to leave bed. I'm pretty sure I have a fever, which I haven't had in over 10 years. My mouth is completely dry. 1400: I manage to roll out of bed and take my temperature, which is 101.3F. I feel an overall malaise and keep getting periodic hot flashes, but manage to make it downstairs and I mix 1 liquid IV electrolyte packet w/ 24fl oz. water. I drank the whole thing. I also cooked myself some dumplings and 1 waffle w/ maple syrup due to feeling much hungrier than usual. 1430: I take 1000mg Extra Strength Tylenol after eating. 1830: I feel almost normal except for significant fatigue and go to bed. 1/14 0430: I wake up and feel completely normal. No fatigue. Go about my day as normal. 1545: Suddenly I feel lightheadedness and mild HA. Have trouble with inattention (ex. not following w/ conversation or forgetting what people just said, or listening but not registering, or can't find the words to respond or answers to a question.). I take my Vitals: 117/95, spO2 85%, HR 63. I then try taking a couple deep breaths and spO2 increases to 98% and lightheadedness and HA go away. Then a few minutes later lightheadedness and HA begin again and spO2 is 80-90%. Then I take 2 deep breaths and spO2 is 98% and HA and dizziness improves. This repeats several times and I grow concerned. My hands are cold and the pulse oximeter is $30 from Amazon. However, I used the pulse ox on my mother and she was 97% consistently every time without fail. I also used pulse ox on myself when perfectly healthy and same thing it was 98%+ every time. This is why I was now worried. 1630: I take Tylenol since this seems to have helped with any and every symptom I've had so far and book an Urgent Care appointment. 1700: I get up to take a shower and feel extremely dizzy to the point where I'm worried I might fall. I stumble into the bathroom holding the wall. I take spO2 and it is 87%. 1800: I show up to Urgent Care and after the shower I feel my hands are warm now. At Urgent Care they are using pulse oximeters and I am spO2 99% and HR 64. So they chalk it up to my crappy Amazon pulse ox and they tell me to hang in there. Perhaps if I had not taken a shower before going there it may have been a different story? Hard to say now. Also the Tylenol may have started to work by then. 2200: I am still inattentive, spacey, lightheaded, and fatigued. I then fell asleep on the couch without realizing. 1/15 0230: I wake up and feel fatigued with brain fog, but no more lightheadedness. 0630: I go back to bed because I'm too sleepy.

2/5/21 around 9:30am - started developing shortness of breath, palpitations, and tachycardia upon exertion. I would become winded just walking to another room or brushing my hair. I reached out to the contact tracing center at hospital to find out if this was a reported side effect of the vaccine. The symptoms continued throughout the weekend and I was unable to work. My next workday was Tuesday and I was still short of breath so I reached back out to the contact tracing center who sent me to be tested for COVID. The results came back negative. I contacted my PCP who ordered a chest X-ray and had me get a pulse ox. My heart rate would go up to 138 with one flight of stairs. Sitting eating dinner my heart rate would sit at 108. Brushing my teeth my heart rate was 119. Thursday, 2/11 - I woke up for my chest X-ray and was light-headed. I put on my pulse ox and my SpO2 was 87%. I went for my chest X-ray and then went straight to the ED. I was hypertensive and tachycardic when I arrived. My blood work and imaging were all normal. 2/12 - I saw a cardiologist who put me on a beta-blocker to temporarily control my symptoms. He believes I am having a secondary reaction to the vaccines as opposed to a primary issue with the heart. I am scheduled for an echo on 2/15 to cover all bases. Symptoms have NOT subsided to date - I am still short of breath, have chest pressure, palpitations and tachycardia are being controlled with a beta-blocker (resting HR is 60s but will jump to high 90s with any movement), blood pressure being controlled with beta-blocker. **I was evaluated for palpitations in 2018 but they were found to be minor and no specific cause was to be found, nor was the cardiologist concerned at the time. I have NO known heart issues or defects.

Her lips swelled, her throat was super tight, and her tongue swelled. She ended up in the ER, and they put her on steroids. She was supposed to get her second shot "today", but now she will get it in 2 weeks. She needed to know if this was a common reaction. The reaction happened on Saturday 08May2021 the day before Mother's Day. She took Benadryl a couple of times on 09May2021. Around noon 09May2021 she went to the ER. She has no NDC, lot, or expiration date available for the Benadryl, it is at her house and she is currently at work. It was Waldryl, the store version the of Benadryl. When she had the lip swelling, it was like little blisters on her lips mainly on her top lip. The next day her bottom lip was swollen. Her tongue got big and her throat was super tight. It felt weird. Her oxygen was fine in the ER, but it felt almost heavy like there was something heavy on her. That's why she decided to go to the ER. She was already on Waldryl for a day and a half, and her lip had swelled out more and her tongue had swelled. She called urgent care, and they didn't have an appointment until 16:00 that day. They told her to go to the ER. She had taken more Waldryl before she went to the ER so her tongue was not as swollen but her lips were pretty swollen. She has a little bit of swelling on the left, kind of like a dried blister on her top lip. It is like a dry patch of skin, but kind of like a blister. It is weird. As far as her lips there is not near as much swelling now. They gave her a shot of steroids in the ER and then put her on steroids. It is Prednisone, 20mg for 3 days. NDC: #. She does not see an expiration date or a lot number on the bottle. Her throat was kind of itchy but it wasn't tight on Saturday. She tried to go to an event on Sunday and left and came home by 11:30. She thinks the Waldryl was getting to her. She was super exhausted and dizzy. She took a nap and when she woke up her neck was stiff. Her itchy throat has gone away. It was probably yesterday when she didn't notice it anymore. She hasn't noticed it yesterday or today. She doesn't know what steroid shot they gave her or if it was Prednisone or not. They just said it was a steroid shot. She doesn't feel any throat discomfort or anything anymore. She has no more discomfort in her throat or her neck. Her lips are a little sore still in that spot with the blister, and it is a tiny bit swollen. It is her left upper lift. She has braces so when her lip swelled it could have irritated her lip. The tightness in her throat went away Sunday night or Monday morning. She doesn't really remember when it went away. She remembers not really noticing it yesterday. When she woke up from her nap her tongue was swollen and her throat was tight. She went to the ER. The swelling in her tongue and her throat went down. She doesn't remember when it went away. She hasn't been feeling good and has been out of it. She takes her last steroid tomorrow, and they wanted her to wait 2 weeks after that to get the second shot. She has to call and schedule because they only schedule a week out. She has to call back in a week or so and schedule it. The heavy feeling is gone. Everything went away at about the same time. She doesn't know when it went away. She has not noticed it yesterday or today. The steroid may have helped. She is still exhausted and kind of out of it. It could be from the steroid she is sure. She is not used to medications like that. Feeling out of it and the exhaustion still feel the same since they started. She is still dizzy. It is a little better, it is not as bad. She doesn't really know when her stiff neck went away. She has been out of it. She doesn't remember when it stopped or anything. She hasn't noticed it today. Investigations: They didn't do any bloodwork or x-rays or anything. They just gave her a steroid shot. She thought she was having a reaction to a candle. She had a candle that she burned several times in her house and never had a reaction to, but she assumed it was a reaction to that. It was the only thing around that was different, she blew out the candle. She thought it was a reaction to the candle and they weren't positive, so they gave her the steroid. The clinical outcome of throat was kind of itchy, throat was super tight, and neck was stiff, was recovered. The clinical outcome of the events was lips swelled, and dizzy was recovering. The clinical outcome of when she had the lip swelling, it was like little blisters on her lips mainly on her top lip, and super exhausted, was not revered.

After the second shot, it got so bad and I have been unable to live my normal life. It has been 3 months and so far I have had no luck with different medications to treat the chronic urticaria that has developed as a result of the vaccine.

I got my shot and started experiencing symptoms 24 hours later and started experiencing body aches and feeling tired. I took 2 Aleve and went to sleep. I had a burning sensation in my lungs and felt out of breath doing things that I don't normally feel out of breath. Like going up the stairs and pushing a cart at the store with my kids. At 2am I woke up and felt out of breath and then started feeling really "panicy". But I don't have any history of anxiety. From 2am on until the afternoon I was having panic attacks. I went to ER in the morning to deal with the breathing problems. They did x-rays and they said my lungs were clear and fine.

Within 2-3 minutes of vaccination numbness and tingling spread through my left shoulder and down to my fingertips. After approximately 45minutes post vaccination the numbness and tingling persisted and spread up the left side of my neck, ear, and left side of my cheek. Numbness and tingling in arm and shoulder persisted for roughly two hours, with facial numbness and tingling persisting roughly for 6-7hrs. Approximately one hour post vaccination I began experiencing coughing and sinus drainage and irritation which is identical to my allergic reactions to food and other allergens. Symptoms persisted for roughly an hour and eased up, but returned approximately 10hrs post vaccination with shallow breathing, coughing, and mild itching all over my body (at this point I had already completed the CDC daily health check and was unable to add this to the list of reactions on that check). Took a single dose of Benadryl and symptoms eased after about an hour. Itching (not at injection site), coughing, sinus drainage and irritation continued throughout the next day and Benadryl was taken roughly every six hours to ease symptoms. Shallow breathing occurred once more approximately 28hrs after vaccination and lasted approximately an hour. Repeated use of Benadryl following medication instructions continues to ease symptoms.

I was pregnant with a baby boy, and the due date was 09/14/2021. I took my first vaccine of pfizer-biontech (Lot: EW0175) on 05/28/2021. On 05/30, I started feeling short of breath and soreness on both upper arms on the afternoon. The shortness of breath lasted several hours and ended before I went to bed on 05/30. The soreness on arms lasted more than 12 hours till the afternoon of 05/31. I did no take any medicine. No other obvious reaction after the night of 05/31/2021. However, I started to feel fewer activities of the baby fewer than 5 days after the vaccination. On 06/08, I went to hospital and took an ultrasound to check the status of baby for the concern of no feeling of baby movement. The examine results were read by my ob doctor as everything normal of the baby with normal-high amount of amniotic fluid that makes mom feel less movement. We did see the baby moved. But he was less active than what we saw on ultrasound before (20-week gestation). Another thing noticeable is that baby did not practice breathing during the 45 min ultrasound. The ob reads it as normal to not see it so frequently on 26-week gestation. On the evening of 06/11, I went to have an emergency care as I still could not feel the baby's movement. The doctors confirmed that my baby boy stopped heart beating and the death time was within 2-3 days. During 06/15-06/17, I was hospitalized to do labor induction of the baby. I took oral misoprostol for inducing the labor (3 times, two pills the 1st time, three pills the 2nd and 3rd time). I took both tylenol and ibuprofen for the fever caused by misoprostol. I took epidural around 1pm of 06/16 for anesthesia. The baby came out around 5pm of 06/16 and identified as stillbirth. On 07/16, I took my second doze of pfizer-biontech vaccine (Lot: EW0191) . I am in observation of my reactions.

After first dose, arm soreness lasting 3 days, headache lasting an hour. After around 5 days, I thought it was stress related, but I started to have itchiness on the roof of my mouth at the back. There is a kind of rashy area in the back of my mouth, mostly on the roof. It itches a lot and it makes my throat hurt when I attempt to scratch it. I have had to use chloraseptic spray and numbing cough drops to ease the itch and pain. Also, I have been experiencing shortness of breath. I attributed it to Chronic Bronchitis, but it feels different and is not constant. I didn't make the connection of mild allergic reaction until I received my second dose. I received my second dose on 01/29/2021. I was experiencing flu-like symptoms on 1/30, and am not experiencing the same symptoms as of 1/31. I am, however, still experiencing the mouth rash and itching, and mild shortness of breath.

Saturday, January 23rd I received my second COVID vaccination around noon. Later that day I developed the typical extremely sore arm. Sunday January 24th: I started to feel just a general malaise and had some headaches, like I was coming down with something, but other than that felt fine. Monday January 25th: I was at work and started developing a sore throat, chest tightness with some shortness of breath, myalgias, fatigue, nausea, and minor chills, although I never had a fever. Tuesday: symptoms were slightly worse Wednesday January 27th: I went to work thinking all these symptoms were still just from the vaccine as I hadn't felt any sickness symptoms before getting the vaccine and hadn't had an exposure I was aware of. While at work, I asked other coworkers if they had any similar symptoms to the vaccine and was told I should call employee health since I was still having such bad symptoms and really didn't feel too great. I called the employee health line and told them all my current symptoms which were all the same still. They told me that the sore throat and chest tightness with shortness of breath were definitely not from the vaccine and to leave work and get tested. I did this and my test came back negative. Because I was still having bothersome chest tightness, the employee health line also told me to go to the ER, thinking it could be something else significant. I went to the ER the night of January 27th to get my symptoms all checked out as told to. Everything came back ok and the ER doctor wanted me tested for COVID again Friday around the 48 hour mark to verify it wasn't the virus. She also told me that if it came back negative, she was sure it must be my reaction to the vaccine. Thursday January 28th: I stayed home per guidelines from employee health and still had all the symptoms listed on Monday. After a two hour afternoon nap, I finally felt like I was turning the corner. My sore throat felt better besides a huge lump still in my throat and my chest tightness with shortness of breath subsided. I still had bad myalgias, fatigue, headaches and a general sense of not feeling so great. Friday, January 29th: Feeling slightly better again, main symptom is bad myalgias, especially my neck and small lump in throat. I got retested around 12:30 pm and it came back negative for COVID as well as negative for strep. Saturday: Feeling almost 100% better besides sore neck still.

PATIENT RECEIVED VACCINE; NOTED SHE HAD ALLERGY TO PENICILLIN/AMOXIL; COUNSELED TO WAIT 30 MINUTES AFTER VACCINATION TO MAKE SURE SHE DOES NOT HAVE LATE ALLERGIC REACTION TO VACCINE. WHEN 30 MINUTES WAS OVER I ASKED THE PATIENT IF SHE WAS FEELING OKAY. SHE STATED "HER JOINTS FELT STIFF LIKE WHEN SHE TAKES AMOXICILLIN." QUESTIONED THE PATIENT IF SHE WAS LIGHTHEADED/DIZZY OR HAD TROUBLE BREATHING? PATIENT RESPONDED "NO, JUST ACHY JOINTS AND SWEATING." AT THAT POINT SHE HAD ANAPHYLACTIC SYMPTOMS. INFORMED PATIENT I COULD GIVE HER SOME TYLENOL FOR THE PAIN. TOLD HER TO GO HOME AND RELAX. INFORMED PATIENT I WOULD CALL HER IN 30 MINUTES TO CHECK IN. 30 MINUTES LATER I CALLED PATIENT AND NO ANSWER AND LEFT VOICE MAIL. 1 HOUR LATER CALLED AGAIN AND NO ANSWER AND LEFT ANOTHER VOICEMAIL. PATIENT CALLED 2-3 HOURS AFTER GOING HOME STATING SHE REPORTED TO "HOSPITAL." SAID SHE STARTED TO DEVELOP DIZZINESS, SWEATING, MORE JOINT PAIN, NAUSEA, AND SHORTNESS OF BREATH "BUT MAY BE DUE TO NERVOUSNESS." I ASKED PATIENT ABOUT RECONSIDERING SECOND DOSE OF VACCINE, BUT SHE THEN SAID "THE HOSPITAL STILL RECOMMENDS ME GETTING THE SECOND DOSE." THEREFORE LEADS ME TO BELIEVE IT WAS NOT A REAL IMMUNE RESPONSE BUT A PSYCHOLOGICAL RESPONSE. ANNOTATED IN PT PROFILE AND INSERTED ALLERGY TO PFIZER VACCINE IN PT PROFILE

? Prior to anything, I have never been allergic to anything all my life and all of a sudden, I am allergic to almost everything I touch, eat and places I go. ? I have constant red rashes that appear ? My face has been swollen for 39 days now and has not gone back to normal once since this all started. ? During the weekend of March 6th, I was outside in my yard mulching, pulling out dead plants and planting new ones. ? March 8th, 2021, I woke up with a swollen LEFT forearm. Went to urgent care. Told to ice and take Aleve. ? On March 9, 2021, I woke up with a swollen face only on LEFT side and went back to urgent care and gave me prednisone 6 days to take. ? On March 12th, my arm was healing but my face was not and ended up swollen on both sides so I went to a different urgent care and they started me on antibiotics but didn?t not have me treated for anything specific because they were unsure what was happening and recommended to see an allergist. ? On March 15th, is saw an allergist. He said the swollen arm and face were from an allergic reaction so they did round one of allergy testing for environmental, molds, cats/dogs and some food categories since I thought it was from yard work. I tested positive on almost all 80 tests and had to go back on March 17 for the second round of allergy testing and the final results. ? On March 17th, I finished round two of allergy testing and was mostly positive on everything. The 8 food categories I was only positive for two, soybean and peanuts. ? I decided to sign up for allergy drops rather than the shots twice a week. In the meantime, of waiting for the drops to get made I was put on more predisone, allergra, and one tablet of hydroxyzine hcl 25mg at night. ? A week late my face was still swollen and nothing was working. I called the doctor office and they said to double the hydroxyzine at night. ? On March 29th, my face was still EXTREMELY swollen so we did a CT scan. Had bad sinus infection. He removed the Allegra and put me on one Clemastine 2.68mg in the morning. He then sent me for blood work. I went that evening. ? On March 31st, I went to get my hair done with the same hair stylist and with the same bleach I?ve been doing on my hair for 13+ years with. I have never once broken out or had a reaction but this time I did. My face, neck, chest was boiling red of a rash. ? On April 5th, I went back and all my blood work was good. However, my face was STILL swollen and hadn?t gone back to normal in since March 7. I stayed on the same meds and started the allergy drops. ? On April 12th, I went to get my nails done and broke out in another red boiling rash with another reaction. Been going to the same lady for 10+ years and never had a reaction or rash. ? On April 13th, I went to the dentist and got a filling re done and molded for a retainer to get whitening gel. After the numbing shot and molding, I immediately broke out in a red rash all over, face swelled up way bigger than it already was and within 30 mins couldn?t breathe well and had to use my epi pen. I was able to breathe again. ? On April 14th, I went back to the doctor because I had a red-hot rash all over my body that will not go away and the doctor said it?s unknown of what?s exactly going on right now. I got put on more prednisone for the rash. I go back on April 21st for a follow up. 38 DAYS LATER and my face has NOT ONCE gone back to normal and rashes are still appearing each day. I have went from being allergic to absolutely nothing to what it feels like almost everything. Every time I eat this week something swells up more and rashes appear more red. No medicine is working. It?s getting out of control at this point.

On Sunday, 04/18, I went and received my second dose of the Pfizer vaccine at 12:30 pm on my left arm. It hurt much sooner than the first, within a couple hours. It hurt worse as well. The next morning was Monday. My arm was super sore. I work from home and went by my normal routine. Oatmeal with raspberries and blueberries. I eat this every day. I started work at 9 AM. Around 9:30 Am or so, I started having sneezing fits. Which I thought was annoying more than anything, but didn't think anything of it, until the fits developed into my hands itching, burning, turning red. I looked at my face and noticed it was red and swelling. I've had skin allergies before, but nothing outside of hives and maybe a little skin swelling. I have an allergy to bees. Worse that ever occurred was hives. This instance did not produce hives but a very beet red rash and swelling. Then very quickly after, my tongue started swelling and my throat started tightening. I called my mother as I noted this was life threatening and went to the ER. I was informed I had experienced anaphylaxis. My heart rate going in to the ER was 166. I have never experienced this in the 32 years I've lived before. I was administered an Epi and steroids. As soon as I realized what it was, even in my panic, I was lucky to make a judgment call to save my life. The doctor said to throw out the berries just in case. The odd thing is, I eat this every day...no issues. I realize it is rare for reactions to be delayed, but was made aware it is possible. I was not stung by anything to make this occur.

She returned home after feeling fine and called her PCP, who advised her not to receive second dose and continue to monitor side effects.

I received the 2nd dose of Pfizer Wednesday. Thursday I experienced many of the typical side effects: overwhelming exhaustion, pain in the injection arm, dizziness, slight muscle aches and on/off chills without a fever. By Friday, I woke up feeling almost normal. I ran around 11am Friday on my home treadmill and felt fine. Saturday we went for a hike and I felt fine. That afternoon I was tired but nothing terrible. Today, Sunday, I went for a run outside on a route I do often. I went a slow, comfortable pace. I felt good. Then I got to the final hill at the end and felt like something was in my throat, itching it and I needed to cough. I tried to cough lightly at first but it didn't help. I drank from my hydration pack and coughed more deeply. I felt my vision go out a bit and stopped completely. Then suddenly it felt like my lung collapsed and I couldn't breathe. It sounded like I had croup, barely breathing through a wheeze. I was struggling for any oxygen at all, like a clogged straw. I was terrified. It lasted about 20 seconds and then started to ease up. I was able to get more and more oxygen. It still felt like cobwebs on my lungs, a tight/heavy feeling for the next 20 minutes or so and then back to normal. I have never experienced something like this before. It was downright terrifying.

The onset of symptoms persisted for about 10 minutes, and then the patient reported that the symptoms have improved. After about 15 minutes, patient resumed what appear to be a normal state with most of the discomfort having gone away, and, after having checked with the pharmacy to acknowledge that she has now feel much better, left the store with a companion (probably a friend or family).

Patient came to, but was unable to speak or respond immediately. She was able to nod her head and open and close her mouth. However, she was not speaking. When prompted with the question of whether she felt like her throat was closing, she nodded her head. However, patient continued to breath effectively and swallow. I asked if her lips were tingly and she responded yes. I asked if they felt numb and she responded yes. I proceeded to give her 25mg of oral diphenhydramine. Patient swallowed the liquid with no trouble. She was slowly opening and closing her eyes. Within minutes, patient started to speak again as well. I continued to ask her what her name, date of birth, day of the week and patient was able to correctly answer. She continued to take very deep breaths, and paused in between speech. I asked the patient to count backwards, which she successfully did. She was also able to squeeze my hands, and felt pressure on her arms and legs. She complained of her legs and arms "feeling numb and tingly". She was also able to provide us with her cell phone code and told us how to reach her husband. EMS arrived within 10 minutes of initial reaction. She left the pharmacy and was transported to local hospital.

5 minutes after vaccination, I felt unwell. I sat with EMS that was onsite. HR was 160's, BP 160's systolic. Right arm went numb in first 5 minutes and my face went numb after 15 minutes post injection. After sitting 45 minutes with EMS my vitals stabilized and no numbness present. I walked to the car, sat in the car for 10 minutes and then I went into anaphylaxis. My airways began to close. My husband got the EMS on site and I was taken by ambulance to the ER. I was given IM Benadryl in the ambulance. In the ER I was given IV Benadryl and IV steroids. After anaphylaxis event I had difficulty breathing for 3 weeks from enlarged lymph nodes. I had extreme shortness of breath for the 2 weeks following injection in that I had to crawl up the flight of stairs to the second level of our home. About the 3rd week after injection, I began having full body itching with no known stimuli. Only benadryl would treat it. I was on allegra or zyrtec daily. I would also develop 1 or 2 hives on my right arm. 4 weeks after injections I was reacting to food and drink. I could not drink alcohol- gin or vodka- it would result in full body itching and a few hives. I did a course of prednisone, and it decreased my allergic reactions and I felt almost normal for several months. On May 8th, 2021 I had be experiencing great stress since February from a family member's cancer diagnosis. I had a crying event and immediately after I had an allergic reaction to gin, which had not occurred since the course of steroids. Today is 5/13 and I have had 2 additional allergic reactions: one involving food and the other flowers. None of which I have ever been allergic to before. I have full body itching and I am now developing hives more often.

Within 2 hours of vaccine I struggled to breathe. My chest felt extremely heavy as if I was having an asthma attack that would not go away. I was using my inhaler every 2 hours for 9 days straight and my nebulizer any time I would lay down for extended periods of time. I was unable to catch my breathe even after short walks from one side of the house to another. The first 72 hours were the worse and my dr would not see me stating "I was showing covid symptoms" even after I explained I had the vaccine recently. She wanted me to go get tested prior to coming to office but I was unable to walk/drive to be able to get this task completed. The second dose had the same reaction except this time it only took 5 days not 9 to recover. I do get very heavy chested easier then prior to the vaccine and am waiting on further doctors evaluations and further testing.

Right when she went to bend over she got a tingling numb feeling on lips and tongue. Due to tingling numb feeling on lips and tongue, they gave her an EpiPen. The feeling went to her throat and throat felt tight and swollen. The very worst of it has went away and still lingers on and off. She couldn't breathe four different times. She is still feeling winded. It mostly went away. Between her throat getting tight, and tightness and pain within chest near diaphragm area. She still gets chest pain. She works in factory and still if she does something physical, she has some chest pain. Last night, it was still bothering her. She has to find out what they did in the ER (emergency room) they said her potassium was low and that can affect chest pain and body aches. They gave her potassium pills. She went to the ER (emergency room) within 3 different times within the first week. The main issue was the breathing. The patient was not hospitalized; they usually released her after a couple of hours. She had a fever at the last ER appointment that following Monday. She had really bad body and muscle aches and swollen in her glands. The patient further stated, "one main symptom was issue with breathing, tightness, between throat chest and diaphragm, when or one would act up, I would try to force myself to breath. It's a scary feeling." The patient started with symptoms somewhere right after she got the vaccine, she felt tingling down arm into hand and really tired right after, about 45 minutes later her tongue and lips went tingly and her throat started to feel tight and swollen, then the other symptoms they were all kind of hours to days after the vaccine. She stated, they gave her an epi pen in her leg at the vaccination site in the same building, when she felt like she couldn't breathe. She saw her doctor and was given a two-way answer, at first was told not to get the second dose and then turned around and said if you take the second dose, take it with an anxiety medicine. She added, "I got the pen, and had chest pain not sure what reaction I had." As for the second dose, she is currently set up to receive it on 16Jul2021 (Friday), but she is still debating if she should get it. She saw her doctor this past Friday and she gave her a two-way reaction and said absolutely not then two minutes later she said take anxiety medicine before. She felt like she was overdue for it and they kept saying she should get the vaccine. It became more and more tempting and her friends are not wearing masks. On the paper she filled out it said neurological disorders and she said that she would be fine. Later after the shot, another lady said it might flare up the symptoms. With those kinds of symptoms, she felt a bad headache when she first woke up. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of tingling numb feeling on lips and tongue and couldn't breathe four different times. No corrective treatment was given for the events tingling down left arm and hand, felt really tired and out of it. All adverse events resulted into a visit to the emergency room and physician office.

When fever reached 101 I self treated with naproxen 250mg. I slept for 4 hours and awoke diaphoretic, but the fever had resolved and I felt much better. However, I developed urticaria that started on my flexor surfaces of the elbows, hips, and knees, and spread to my adbomen, thighs, and face, with swelling about my right eye. I self treated with 25mg benadryl and itching and urticaria improved to the point that I was able to sleep. When I awoke the next morning my symptoms had largely resolved with the exception of mild headache, body aches, hoarseness, slight chest tightness, and mild residual swelling of the right eyelid.

On Sun 12/27 around 12pm I had left arm tenderness and I was fatigued and then at 5pm I had a fever starting at 99.5 and by 11pm 103.5 I had body aches chills, rigers, fever did not break with tylenol or advil . I had the fever until Monday afternoon and it broke for a few hours and came back and did not budge from 101. I called occupational health and asked questions about my fever, monday night at 8pm I had a bad dry cough and SOB and chest tightness and sinus congestion, no sneezing or runny nose, still with a fever. I called occupational health again and they said to come in to get covid tested and results were positive Tuesday 29th AM. On Thursday I started taking medicine: 5 day course of singulair, slow vent albuterol prn teflex antibiotic and calcium, Zinc and Vitamin D. The fever started to break around Monday the1st to the 4th around 99 to 100 . The 4th I lost sense of taste and smell and Monday the 28, 2020 I had neuromuscular pain in stiffness in legs and I had trouble walking and when fever got lower I realized I was having pain in my feet and hips. I think the infection triggered the unknown neuromuscular condition. I was supposed to go to work the 11th but since I was still having leg issues and my leave was extended one more week. I do not believe these reactions were due to the vaccine I think it was just a coincidence I contracted COVID prior to getting the vaccine

They took me to ER (Hospital) and I recognized I was in there when I "woke up" - they were trying to get an IV in me but I was shaking so much it took several attempts. They gave me several medications because I was nauseated as I wanted to vomit and they gave me anaphylactic medications. I was having chest pains. I fell asleep. They were going to admit me but I kind of refused to be admitted and they let me go with Zofran, prednisone and one other medication. One of coworker took me home. I slept the rest of the day and night. The next day, Really fatigued and chest pain was semi getting better. Breathing - was pretty okay after that. By day 3, I was fine.

She had been over at the vaccine center getting the second dosage of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccination and had gotten the vaccine and was sitting afterwards when she started feeling that her throat became tight and she was having a hard time breathing so she alerted the staff who quickly evaluated her and gave her an injection of epinephrine. At that point she was transported over to our urgent care for me to evaluate her. While in the urgent care she stated that she still felt that there was some tightness but generally felt better. As I was examining her she said she started feeling that her throat was tightening up again and so we did give her an additional injection of epinephrine and within 5 minutes she again states that she is feeling tremendously better. She never did have any wheezing or swelling of her tongue or her lips. She has never had any prior reaction like this to a vaccination or injection

My right hand started hurting, then started tingling and it radiated up my arm. I had a heavy wave of dizziness, my chest started feeling weird and I started having a little trouble swallowing. I alerted a pharmacist, who sat with me with an EpiPen, but I wasn't sure what was happening so I didn't want it. My hands started shaking, I got dizzier, had a headache, felt nauseous, my arm started hurting more and I could feel my throat getting tighter. I started panicking when I couldn't feel much air coming out of my throat, started feeling confused and so the pharmacist administered the EpiPen. Within a minute or so, I was able to breathe a little better and within 15-30 minutes, I was able to breathe normally. At the hospital, my potassium levels crashed to a critical level and I had a potassium transfusion, which normalized my levels. I felt better the next day. It's almost a month later and my right hand/arm is still having issues, which was determined to be an Ulnar Nerve Entrapment...most likely caused by the anaphylaxis since my arm tightened up. I have an EMG test this week for it.

Beginning the following day arou d the late morning, I began to experience pressure on my chest, as though someone were pushing down upon it. I also was unable to take many deep breaths and trying to do so was very tiring. This continued to impair my work and personal life until I checked into the ER. The doctor there told me this was apparently a side effect, that she hadn't heard of precisely. She advised that because I had an anxiety disorder (which up until that point had been handled and had not flared up for quite a few months), the vaccine had most likely set off neuropsychological side effects.

Within seconds of receiving the vaccine, I had a strong metallic taste in my mouth. My husband and I sat in our car for the 15 minutes required and I thought I was feeling a bit off, but also was trying to figure out if anyone else had experienced the metallic taste. After our 15 minutes wait period, we left to head back home. On the way home, about 30-40 minutes after I received the vaccine, I started to feel really warm. Then my neck started to feel really hot and when I swallowed it felt like I had a knot in my throat. As far as I know, I'm not allergic to anything, but realized there was something seriously wrong with my body and had my husband get off the freeway so I could get some water and possibly go to an urgent care. It also doesn't help that my heart was racing and I started panicking because it felt like my throat was starting to close up. When the initial anxiety of what was happening calmed down, we carefully drove home and I called the urgent care nurse line at my doctor's office. The nurse on the line told me to take a Benadryl and to take another one 6 hours later. He said that I was having an adverse reaction and if things got worse go into the ER . Luckily things calmed down after a while but the metallic taste stayed for two days. I've been advised to not get the 2nd dose, which I'm honestly not comfortable getting at this point either.

The night of my first shot, I went to bed but woke up at 3am to use the restroom. Upon washing my hands, I started seeing stars and completely blacked out. I had chills but was sweating profusely. I thought I could make it back to my bed but apparently lost consciousness and passed out on my way out of the bathroom, fall forward onto my knees and smashing my head on my bedroom floor. My boyfriend woke up from the bang and found me unconscious for ~10 seconds before he got me to come to. I was extremely disoriented once I came to and he was able to get me back into bed. Since that date (4/6/21 3am), I have experienced a headache like never before. 4/7 and 4/11 were the worst headaches I?ve ever had in my life. I was hysterically crying with ice packs on my head in the dark, as light was very bothersome. Taking Tylenol every 4 hrs during daytime while awake barely shook this headache. I had a good day on 4/10, but then had the set back with the worst headache ever on 4/11. I spoke with my doctor?s office on 4/7 and they decided I most likely had a concussion and could recover at home. I called again 4/12 in the AM after having the worst headache of my life on 4/11 and they could not get me in for a visit until 4/13. I just left that appointment and while I passed their ?neuro? physical exam, I am still experiencing these headaches along with dizziness and shortness of breath when doing the smallest task or bending down and getting back up. I?ve requested a CT Scan to ensure there isn?t a brain bleed causing these issues from my fall which occurred due to the dizziness from receiving this Covid vaccine.

Next I noticed my vision was slightly blurry and I was becoming lethargic. Within 12 hours I had a low grade fever, heart palpitations, and severe night sweats. By 24 hours I felt out of breath if I walked more than 10 feet away and I got extremely dizzy and felt faint if I walked too far. My period lasted 2 days longer than it should have and was heavier than normal. It is now 12 days later and I still feel fatigued, anxious, dizzy, and my hormones feel off. I definitely do not feel right. I get nauseous from the dizziness even though I have been drinking a gallon of water a day and not exercising. I am a very active person and I have been forced to be extremely inactive to keep all of these symptoms at bay.

I had fever and chills 12 hours after the vaccine was administered. I felt fine after 36 hours of the vaccine's administration. But on May 25-26, I started developing a tightness in my chest and had difficulty breathing. My chest hurt and hurt even more when I took deep breaths. The breathign issue came with a pain in my upper back for which I once took ibuprofen and another time I took half a painkiller [Diclogem]. I felt extremely tired/fatigued and weak, had irregular sleeping patterns, felt dizziness and lightheadedness during the day and this continued until Saturday, May 29. Thereafter, the dizziness during the day subsided but I still felt too tired to do anything. Over the long weekend of May 29-31, I have started developing painful acne on my buttocks. The left buttock inparticular has multiple painful acne. I still have trouble breathing and my chest still hurts so much that I cannot wear a bra for more than a few hours a day as it feels very constrictive. The breathing issue and chest pain really worries me because I don't have the stamina to do errands or go outside for more than on hour or two on any single day. Today, June 2, is the 10th day since I got my vaccine.

After the second shot, I had chills, body aches, & headaches. My legs hurt really bad. I also had hyper arousal that seemed very abnormal. I then had a UTI. I went to Urgent Care and I was prescribed Bactrim. A few days after that, I had a fever. My face felt like it was on fire on the left side. I went to Urgent Care again. I was told I had Covid-19, but the test came back negative. I was given Cipril afterwards. Every time I stood up I felt like I couldn't breathe. I was then put on Prednisone. I couldn't breathe well after that. I was then diagnosed with bronchitis. I called my doctor again and I took another Covid test. It came back negative.

On the 9th of April about 3:40pm about 10 minutes after the vaccine I felt faint and waived the Doctor over because of my allergy to contrast dye I was in a section of people to be watched but I called my Dr. before the vaccine and he said I could get the vaccine. So I waived someone and they put me on a stretcher and I was in and out of consciousness for around 90 minutes so I fainted and from that point I experienced Alice In Wonderland Syndrome for the next 3-4 weeks. This is something I have since I was a child but I only get it when i have a fever so the difference is that I had no fever and was stuck in Alice In Wonderland mode so it wasn't safe to drive. The next day april 5th and I started having diarrhea and haven't had a regular bowel movement until this day. It hasn't gone away. That day also April 10th I started having breathing problems where my breathing was very shallow and it was the first time i called my Dr and asked for an appointment but at that time there wasn't enough lab work to know what was going on. Later that week around 12/13th I started having extreme fatigue and dizziness with trouble going up and down the stairs and stuck in Alice In Wonderland mode so i fell down a lot. I had trouble walking and walking my dog and started getting migraines without head pain with little lights flashing and circles that expanding, having a lot of those for several weeks but no head pain so it was odd. My last symptom before my second vaccine between 23/26 I started to feel that my limbs were really heavy and I was sleeping a lot and had a really hard time getting up in the morning and short of breath and still tired after sleeping 11 hours and that's when I got my 2nd vaccine.

What happened on the day April 30th is about 5 minutes after the vaccination they had me laying down already so I wouldn't pass out because I passed out on the first vaccine. I became very confused and disoriented and had brain fog that didn't go away for about 3 weeks (about the 16th of May), it lasted a really long time. I didn't know who I was or where I was and confused and on the edge of consciousness for about 45 minutes on that day. On May 13th I had a severe reaction to something and my throat closed up. Starting April 30th I had a severe cough that lasted most of May and my Doctor gave me an inhaler around the 20th of May. On May 13th I went to emergency room (they gave me Benadryl) and they couldn't find anything wrong with my heart or systems in general and kept me for observation. I then followed up with my Dr later on that week and they initially thought I had asthma and they gave me an EpiPen in case I had another reaction like that. After that I've had 5 times where I had anaphylaxis where I had to use the EpiPen and this is new because I haven't had anaphylaxis since I was 15. Around 17th of May my brain fog started lessening and I would have 1 anaphylaxis x reaction a week since then and I continue to see my Doctor. She said I may have a genetic mast cell disorder that was activated by the vaccine. I am now on a daily emergency inhaler and EpiPen.

I waited 15 minutes after I had the vaccine, and I was fine. Around 930PM I was feeling bad arm was sore and hurting so I went on to bed. I woke up I had nausea spells and felt fatigued. I felt bad for the next two weeks. I was throwing up at work and was taking ibuprofen. I had swollen lymph nodes under my arm and back of my neck. My throat and side of jaw started swelling. I kept icing the swelling. I went and saw my doctor and he advised me to not take the Miloxacin. My MD ordered an EPI pen in case I needed it if I was having an allergic reaction. He advised to take Benadryl and Ibuprofen. I laid on my couch and around 930PM my ribs and throat started feeling restricted like I was suffocating.

Immediately upon receiving injection I had tingling/numbness in my left arm that went all the way to my hand. I had weakness in my left hand. 25 minutes after injection my numbness significantly intensified and I had contracture of the left hand. I also experienced tingling of the lips, tongue and face. Within a couple minutes my right hand also began to experience contractures. At this same time my heart started racing and i had difficulty breathing (likely hyperventilation due to stress). Once I arrived at the emergency room a ecg was completed. The contractures went away, but re-emerged multiple times. My ionized calcium was found to be low (1.11 mmol/L), but no other notable lab abnormalities. This persisted for a few hours and finally went away.

Symptoms began in the afternoon on Monday, July 12 around 2:00-3:00pm. I began experiencing numbness and tingling in right arm all the way from injection site through my right hand. Numbness has been strong enough at times over the last day or two to disrupt my daily routine. I began having a sharp pain in my chest that hasn?t subsided since the onset. This caused difficulty sleeping and the pain has been strong enough to be a distraction throughout the day. I am not experiencing any shortness of breath, but there is a strong tightness in chest. Something to note: I also experienced a similar numbness in left arm after first vaccine (06/17/21 EW0181) which I assumed was related to my Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS). I had a full headache for a couple weeks following this dose but no chest pain.

Anaphylactic reaction 6 days post vaccine 24Dec2020; I had severe chest tightness; SOB; throat soreness; hoarse voice; mouth swelling; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable physician, the patient. A 34-year-old non-pregnant female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE; Lot Number: EL0140), via an unspecified route of administration in the left arm on 18Dec2020 at 15:30 (at the age of 34-years-old) as a single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included severe dust mite allergy (based on skin test). Prior to the vaccination, the patient was not diagnosed with COVID-19. Concomitant medications included cetirizine hydrochloride (MANUFACTURER UNKNOWN), hydrocodone bitartrate/paracetamol (NORCO), ibuprofen (MANUFACTURER UNKNOWN), and ondansetron (ZOFRAN); all for unspecified indications from unknown dates and unknown if ongoing. The patient did not receive any other vaccines within four weeks prior to the vaccination. On 24Dec2020 at 10:00, 6 days post vaccination, the patient experienced anaphylactic reaction, severe chest tightness, shortness of breath, throat soreness, hoarse voice, and mouth swelling; all reported as life threatening. The events led to an emergency room visit and she was given epinephrine (EPI-PEN), methylprednisolone (SOLUMEDROL), and diphenhydramine hydrochloride (BENADRYL) as treatment. The patient stated that she developed the reactions 45 minutes after she took premedications for a dilatation and curettage procedure. The premedications included ibuprofen, hydrocodone bitartrate/paracetamol, ondansetron. She stated she had taken these medications several times before and this was the first time she had this reaction. Since the vaccination, the patient had not been tested for COVID-19. The clinical outcomes of the anaphylactic reaction, severe chest tightness, shortness of breath, throat soreness, hoarse voice, and mouth swelling were recovered on unknown dates.; Sender's Comments: Anaphylactic reactions presented as chest tightness, shortness of breath, throat soreness, hoarse voice, and mouth swelling, developed 45 minutes after premedications including included ibuprofen, hydrocodone bitartrate/paracetamol, ondansetron for a dilatation and curettage procedure and 6 days post vaccination with BNT162B2, the event therefore is most likely attributed to these premedications unrelated to the vaccine use. The impact of this report on the benefit/risk profile of the Pfizer product is evaluated as part of Pfizer procedures for safety evaluation, including the review and analysis of aggregate data for adverse events. Any safety concern identified as part of this review, as well as any appropriate action in response, will be promptly notified to Regulatory Authorities, Ethics Committees and Investigators, as appropriate.

About 5 minutes after the vaccine, my tongue began tingling. I drank water but didn't tell anyone at the vaccine clinic. I did wait 17 minutes before leaving. I went to the car to look in the mirror and assess my oral airway. My tongue and pharynx were not swollen. I kept drinking water and proceeded to go home. About 10 minutes into my drive my throat became tight, so I went back and checked into the ER. My vitals were stable, and you couldn't see any swelling. My throat felt tight and my tongue tingly. I had already taken pepcid and zyrtec that morning, so they gave me Solumedrol and Benadryl IV. The tingling and tightness improved and went away by about 0930. It did return around 2300 that night (not as bad, just tongue tingly and slight tightening of my throat), and I took another pepcid and benadryl. I also had myalgias, felt febrile and fatigued for about 48 hours. ++See previous VAERS report I did about vaccine #1

First vaccine I could feel the vaccine go into my body and down into my legs. It was a very strange sensation. I felt very fatigued 30 min after the vaccine but ignored it because it was not normal to have symptoms after the first vaccine. That night i did feel a litlle bit of swelling in my lips that continued into the next day but it was not severe. The muscle aches, joint pain and allodynia the 2nd day were so severe I don't really remember any other symptoms i may have had. I took Benadryl and Tylenol and slept for 2 days straight. After the 1st vaccine I did have shortness of breath for about 3 days post. Then I received the 2nd vaccine, I did not feel it go in this time. About 30 min after the second vaccine I felt very fatigued. About an hour later I started to feel slight swelling in my lips that increased and around 2 1/2 hours my eyes and lips were noticeably swollen and I was flushed. My husband noticed my ears and cheeks were bright red. I felt my heart racing and took my pulse it was around 120. I felt dizzy and like there was a lump in my throat. I requested an appointment via video call from the emergency line. I didn't feel like I was having trouble breathing and stayed calm, my pulse went down to 100 after about 20 min. while waiting for my video call. I spoke to the doctor and they recommended going to the ER. I asked since the pulse went down and it felt like I was slowly reacting, if I could try taking Benadryl and see how I felt. She said that was ok but if I felt any difficulty breathing to go to the ER right away. I took 50 mg of Benadryl and felt better and rested. The next morning lips and eyes were swollen again but a little worse. Difficulty swallowing persisted as well as severe muscle pain, joint pain, and allodynia. The symptoms were worse with 2nd vaccine. Noticed shortness of breath just walking up and down steps. These symptoms lasted a little bit longer. 4 days after the vaccine I noticed the lip swelling was not getting better so I called my PCP. He recommended taking the next 2 days off , rest with benadryl and tylenol. I listened and felt good enough to go into work. It is now 4 weeks since i had the vaccine and i am still experiencing some symptoms that seem to be in relation to after i eat. That includes lip swelling, tightness in the muscles around my throat (feel as if they are strained), stomach burning, indigestion, heartburn. Called PCP again who recommended I see an allergist/immunologist.

I got the first COVID vaccine on March 8th. The next day, I had a rash on my chest and thighs that became hives. The hives were hot and itchy. This reaction gradually grew worse and the rash spread to the rest of my legs, down my arms, and to my belly. When it started up my neck, I noticed that my throat was getting a bit sore and tight. I called my primary care provider and she told me to go to the ER. The ER providers drew blood, which was normal except for low potassium and elevated red blood cells. They treated me with IV Benadryl and steroids, which caused the symptoms to dissipate quickly. The doctor also prescribed Pepcid and an epipen.

About 24 hours after my shot on Thursday, I began to have shortness of breath, coughing, and needed to take my rescue inhaler. I needed to take it 2 more times within the next 24 hours. I was coughing and it was leaving the taste of blood in my mouth. I was not coughing anything up though. I wasn?t able to do a 3 minute task at home without coughing. By Saturday 48 hour later, I was still having shortness of breath, my lungs felt like they were burning, but it wasn?t as bad. By 8:00pm Saturday night the shortness of breath was gone and I was breathing easier. I still feel a slight tightness in my chest and coughing at the moment, but it feels like a residual cough like I would have after a cold. The only other effect I had was a sore arm after the shot which lasted about 4 hours and the next morning being slightly achy.

On Tuesday April 6th at around 4pm patient came in for her second vaccine dose with her co-worker. I asked them the questions surrounding the protocol for the vaccination and proceeded to take temperatures. One thing that did stand out before the injection was she mentioned that she was out of work for about 3 days after getting the shot because she fell ill. I asked her how long it lasted and she replied about 3 days. I then asked her if she wanted me to proceed with her second injection. that day and she said yes, and added it's one of those things that unfortunately happen. Some people have a reaction and I happen to be one of them:end quote. I gave her co-worker their injection first, then I gave her injection. About 5 mins in she started saying she was hot. I offered her some water and she said she was getting hot. About 10 mins in she started saying that she feels nauseous and hot still. We put a wet paper towel on the back of her neck. By that Time I has staff were up front assisting me with patient. That is when I asked someone to grab the Epinephrine injection for stand by and proceeded to call 911. I gave them all the information about the patient, but noticed that she was telling the ladies that her throat was tightening up and it was becoming hard to breathe. Her breathing was becoming deep and fast as I watched her from the phone. That is when I told one of them to give her the injections, because the patient was becoming unresponsive to our questions except for nodding of the head when asked can we inject her with the pen. After the injection was given, EMT was right at the door and started to triage the patient. I informed them that the patient had just received the epinephrine shot not even 5 mins before they walked through the door and she was given the wet paper towels to keep her cool because she was saying she was hot. After that another vehicle arrived and asked if she wanted to go to the Hospital and she said yes. They got her on the gurney and I gave them the information about what happened before they arrived along with her Injection card.

Approximately 2 minutes after receiving my 2nd dose of the Pfizer COVID vaccine, I felt a flash of heat in my chest that migrated to the back of my throat. I was given benadryl and observed for 30 minutes, after which I went to work. The heat in my chest dissipated to a mild chest tightness and mild shortness of breath that lasted approximately 2 weeks. I was monitored by Health department and was told by a NP to seek care in the ED after my chest tightness and SOB hadn't dissipated after a few days (I declined and continued to monitor my symptoms). Benadryl, ibuprofen, nothing improved my symptoms, which impacted my daily life. Siblings that are physicians said it sounded like I had an allergic reaction that turned into a pulmonary inflammatory reaction. After 2 weeks, my symptoms subsided and I have no sequelae.

1 April, woke up at 0800 with slight headache and felt fatigued but most noticeably my voice sounded weird and my throat was extremely hoarse while talking in work meeting and I had to constantly cough to clear it. I was having a bit of trouble swallowing as well. In the afternoon, my headache got worse and I had diarrhea. Around 7:45pm I started feeling extreme itchiness and swelling in my tongue. This didn't improve, so I took 25mg Benedryl at 8:20pm, at which time my vitals were normal, but noticeably lower than usual with a HR of ~60, BP of 100/70, O2 sat 99% and normal temp. I also took another 1000mg Tylenol at 9:30pm and went to bed. 2 April, 0730 woke up and my throat and tongue started swelling again and were very itchy. I began have difficulty breathing and swallowing saliva. I also could not swallow a banana easily, so I stopped eating it. I also had some wheezing that would only go away with a cough. Took 25mg more of Benedryl and went to urgent care immediately because breathing was becoming increasingly difficult. Treatment: At urgent car I was diagnosed with anaphylactic reaction due to vaccination and given another 25mg Benedryl injection and 10mg Prednisone. Vitals were BP:144/90, HR:83, TMP 98.5. Doctor considered epinephrine instead of Benedryl but "didn't want to have to send me to the ER". I was monitored for about 45 minutes and while my difficulty breathing did not improve much, it also did not worsen. I was sent home with Medrol steroid pack, Atarax and an EpiPen. My breathing ability did not return to normal until about ~3 days later.

At 3:40 am 4/8/21 my dog woke me to go outside. As I walked down the stairs, I was happy I felt perfectly normal as I had heard so many side effects. My arm was sore but that was all. After a few minutes I went back upstairs and became incredibly nauseas and light headed. It was more overwhelming than any feeling like that in my life. I wasn?t sure if I was going to vomit or faint. I rushed in bed and was breathing very heavily in my nose and out of my mouth focusing on this awful feeling to pass. After a few minutes my right shoulder started to tingle and feel numb. The sensation started working its way down my right arm then began on the left side. The tingling/numb sensation went all the way to my fingertips and I lost movement in both of my hands. I could still feel touch but I had no movement in my fingers. After about five minutes I slowly regained movement in my fingers and the tingle/numb sensation moved slowly back up both my arms in the same manner it began. After roughly ten minutes this episode had entirely passed and I went back to sleep. When I woke around 7am I felt relatively normal, just minor tiredness and headache. Around 1:00pm I developed a fever of 100.7 and went to bed for the day about 6:00pm on 4/8/21. When I woke Friday 4/9/21 I felt entirely back to normal. My husband said if I hadn?t regained movement of my fingers when I did, he was going to take me to the ER because it was so bizarre and scary. While the episode was at its peak, my husband gave me two Tylenol.

The day after my second shot, I felt like I was having a heart attack. My chest got tight around my heart and it came in waves. My heart/lungs in my chest in that area felt very heavy and in severe pain. It was hard to breath. I felt like someone was squishing me. I have a high tolerance for pain but this pain I thought I was dying. This started about 10:30 in the morning, my husband ran me to the hospital but had to pull over because I was screaming in pain and couldn?t breath while I was in the middle of a ?wave? of pain. He called 911, they met us in the parking lot. They gave me 4 aspirin and then took me to hospital. By the time I got to the hospital, the aspirin had helped. This aspirin saved my life. I was then discharged with ?chest pain unspecified type?

Became dizzy immediately upon administration. Lips, tongue, and throat began mildly tingling after about 10 minutes. I stayed for about 15 more minutes in the waiting room to make sure it wasn?t anything serious. I thought maybe it was in my head and didn?t want to bother anyone. I drove home and it got worse. At 3:00 I started feeling a tightness in my throat. This has happened to me before so I knew the symptomology well. I took 25mg Benadryl at that time and called adverse events hotline. They said if it didn?t get better or got worse to go to ER. The Benadryl helped reduce the tingling sensation, but throat swelling sensation continues to get worse and I got a horse voice. I went to ED around 5:00. I was simply treated with IM Decadeon and sent home. Within approximately an hour after administration of Decadeon, all symptoms had subsided and I successfully made it through the night with no further complications.

This was the second dose. In the first dose I had mild throat and tongue swelling (airways remained fully viable) and an itchy throat. For the second, I prophylactically treated with six allergy and asthma medicines I already use in various ways after consulting with two friends who are doctors. My reaction was either the same or slightly better on the throat swelling front with this second dose, but a bit worse on the throat itchiness front. The throat swelling mostly went away after an hour and the throat itchiness lasted about two hours.

I have proof of all of this. I see some research suggesting people who?ve had covid do not need second shot. It seems important that I?ve had it and got it again after first shot (assuming I actually contracted it before my second). I am the sickest I?ve been. Sicker every time. No fever. Just headache, chills, chest pain, cough, runny nose, pain swallowing, sore throat, wheezing, weakness, fatigue.

Pt was admininstered her first pfizer vaccine at approximately 3:11pm on 5/11/21. She was waiting 15 min following injection. I went to tell her the 15 minutes was up when she reported that she felt "tightness" across her upper chest. I asked her to stay a little longer so another nurse and myself could monitor her. She agreed. After just a few more minutes she reported a small itch on her left cheek and left neck. The other nurse and myself did not observe any bumps or hives. While I stayed with the patient, the other nurse went to the pharmacy and got #2 25mg oral benadryl and gave to the patient with water. She waited an additional 15 minutes and stated she was feeling ok and left. The following day, 5/12/21, we noticed her appt that was scheduled for 6/02/21 was cancelled. I called the patient to see if she cancelled or if it was an error on my part. She confirmed that she did cancel the appointment and she did not want the second dose. She reported that approximately 4-5 hours after she left our facility and the benadryl wore off, she got hives all over her abdomen and arms and started having difficulty breathing. She went to the emergency room and states she was treated with benadryl and pepcid. She was feeling better when I spoke to her on 5/12/21, however, due to the reaction she is declining the second dose of the pfizer vaccine.

A contactable consumer (patient) reported for a 34-year-old non-pregnant female patient received BNT162B2 (Solution for injection), dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration, administration in left arm on 18Mar2021 11:45 (at the age of 34-year-old) (Lot Number: ER2613) as SINGLE DOSE for covid-19 immunisation. The patient had allergies to Sulfa antibiotics, Lumbar disc herniation, keratosis pilaris, acne. Occasionally the patient drinks alcohol. Concomitant medication included ethinylestradiol/ ferrous fumarate/ norethisterone acetate (JUNEL FE) spironolactone, ethinylestradiol, norethisterone acetate (AUROVELA), acetominophen and ibuprofen.. The patient did not receive any other vaccines within 4 weeks prior to the COVID vaccine. The patient had a reaction a severe allergic reaction to the COVID 19 vaccine on 18Mar2021 at 11:45 . It was reported within 2 minutes of receiving vaccine the patient started to get hot, heart started racing, a facial redness, face got bright red and swollen, throat started to swell, and it was difficult to swallow. The patient heart rate went up to 127 and blood pressure up to 170 within a few minutes after getting vaccine. The patient heart rate and blood pressure were high. The patient also experienced inflamed tonsils. On 18Mar2021 at 11:52 the patient experienced also: sore throat, shortness of breath and chest tightness, at 12:00 the patient had mild facial erythema flushing and at an unknown time fever up to 99.5°F. All these with outcome of unknown. The patient was not in anaphylactic shock, but she was initially given diphenhydramine (BENADRYL) to treat the symptoms, but it had no effect. She was admitted to emergency room and was given epinephrine and prednisone and things started to get better. The next day symptoms returned, and patient went to urgent care the next morning. There the patient received another prescription for prednisone for 5 days. After that finished her symptoms returned and was given another round of prednisone for 6 days. The patient was still having slight symptoms that she was treating with fexofenadine (ALLEGRA) twice per day per advice of allergist. The patient was met with an allergist and was slightly concerned and thought it was unusual that this would continue past symptoms of 2 weeks. It was reported that the patient was experiencing slight symptoms, nothing crazy, but was wondering what communication from Pfizer was if someone did have an allergic reaction that most people were treated in emergency room. On an unknown date, the patient had allergy tests and no information found on allergy tests. It was reported that the patient antibody testing was not currently recommended to assess for immunity. The patient was discharged with instructions to get an epi pen in case anything got crazy, and her husband drove her home. It was stated as soon as it was her turn the system disconnected. The patient stated the only reason she waited after 4 hours was because she was 5th in line, and it took 2 hours 50 minutes to get to be her turn. The patient was on hold for four hours and she got hung up on, but she was not sure if the system was down, but she got an email and, in the case, it had her interactions. Among the Vaccine recipients, mild-to-moderate pain at the injection site within 7 days after an injection was the most reported local reaction, with less than 1% of participants. In general, local side effects; the ones you get on the arm where you got the shot (such as injection site redness and injection site swelling) were mostly mild-to-moderate in severity and resolved within 1 to 2 days. Side effects that you may experience throughout the rest of your body; (systemic side effects) including fever and chills were observed with the first 1 to 2 days after vaccination and resolved shortly thereafter. Swollen lymph nodes (lymphadenopathy), which generally resolved within 10 days, is likely to have resulted from a robust vaccine-elicited immune response. A cross all age groups reporting severe pain. Since the vaccination the patient was not tested for COVID-19. The outcome of the events was recovering. The patient was suggested not to get the second dose of COVID-19 vaccination of any type. No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information is expected. Follow-up (27Apr2021): This is a follow-up spontaneous report from a contactable Pharmacist. New information included: patient medical history, concomitant medications, new non serious adverse event (sore throat, shortness of breath and chest tightness, mild facial erythema flushing and fever up to 99.5°F.); Sender's Comments: A contributory role of BNT162B2 to the reported events cannot be excluded based on the temporal relationship The impact of this report on the benefit/risk profile of the Pfizer product is evaluated as part of Pfizer procedures for safety evaluation, including the review and analysis of aggregate data for adverse events. Any safety concern identified as part of this review, as well as any appropriate action in response, will be promptly notified to regulatory authorities, Ethics Committees, and Investigators, as appropriate.

This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient) reported for herself. A 34-year-old female patient (not pregnant) received bnt162b2 (BNT162B2), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 03Apr2021 12:00 at 34 years old (Lot Number: ER8734) as single dose, for covid-19 immunisation.

An hour after the vaccine on 03Apr2021, patient's fingers were red and swollen (like after exercise on a hot day) and she was itchy all over her body. No symptoms for almost 4 days--then she started feeling intermittently dizzy/lightheaded, feverish every night (chills and hot flashes) for the next 4 nights. She got a wracking cough and was short of breath (couldn't climb a single flight of stairs without needing to lie down for several minutes). She was also extremely exhausted-- slept 20 hours in a single day. After multiple telemedicine and in-person appointments, a trip to urgent care, and a chest x-ray and CT, she was diagnosed with pneumonia and treated with antibiotics, vitamin D, and two inhalers. She missed her period, had an elevated d-dimer, and her white blood cell count dropped from 7.0 Thousand u/L to 3.6. She was incapacitated for 2 weeks-- the sickest she had ever been in her life. The events resulted in doctor or other healthcare professional office/clinic visit and emergency room/department or urgent care. The patient performed Nasal Swab, negative on 11Apr2021. Therapeutic measures were taken for pneumonia. The outcome of the events was recovering.

After the 1st dose I had an extremely severe headache within 4 hours, light sensitivity and eye pain . For the next 72 hours I had severe body aches, chills, intense joint pain (starting at ankles, knees, femurs and then hips. Radiating pain in each section about 30 minutes at a time). Sweating at night. I was light headed and had extreme fatigue. The first 4 nights I had extreme stomach pain all over from under my rib cage felt it moving through my entire stomach track. Even my uterus hurt and I had intense diarrhea, always occurring after 1am but no later than 5am. For a week after the first dose i continued to experience side effects, but not as intensely. Mostly severe fatigue, headache, sensitivity to light, eye pain, muscle stiffness and diarrhea. Yesterday i received my 2nd dose and initially only experienced a slight headache and moderate fatigue. But at 2am I awoke with EXTREMELY INTENSE pain in my kidney area and lower back.

Within 12 hours, normal vaccine symptoms including fever of 101.5, chills and fatigue. Those symptoms all went away within 24 hours. Three days later, new more severe symptoms appeared including heart palpitations, high blood pressure, severe fatigue and shortness of breath. These symptoms happened in episodes every 3-4 days for two weeks and then at least once per week for two more weeks. I went to the hospital, my endocrinologist, my GP and a cardiologist. A whole battery of tests were done, but no cause was found beyond the explanation that it could have been from the vaccine. Six weeks out from the vaccine, all symptoms subsided and have not returned, at least for now.

Caller came on the line. She had throat and facial swelling, facial numbness, and a rash on her legs and back and arms. Then, she didn't know if she has nerve damage or what, she still had tingling in her face where it was originally numb. Caller was just wondering if there was a program in place. She was told to go to the ER because she was having a reaction. The hospital had no way of billing it as a Covid-19 vaccine reaction. After the second dose her face got hot and she took a lot of medication and the facial swelling and hotness went away. Her cheeks were red and hot, she was not sure if it was swelling. Her face was hot and bright red, she doesn't know why. It kind of seemed puffy, but she was not sure if that was what it was. She had swelling about a week after the second dose her face was swollen and puffy, but she thought it's gone like the hotness was gone. She thought the tingling in her face was related to that. Her face was tingling and hot and swollen, she thought the tingling was a lasting effect. She didn't still have swelling in her face and it wasn't hot. It was in the same area as the tingling.

She went to the ER and they gave her steroids and antihistamines, and it was completely gone after that. She did not have an NDC, lot, or expiration date available for the Benadryl she took. She recovered completely. It went away that same day. She thought the facial numbness after the second dose was a little better. It still felt tingly, but it had gotten a little better. She was not really sure, the numbness and tingling were kind of together and she didn't know how to describe it. She didn't want to be dramatic, she thought that people should get the vaccine. Reactions were normal for her. She had trouble swallowing about 30 to 40 minutes after she had the second dose of the vaccine. She was driving and realized she was having trouble swallowing or tightness in her throat area. When she went to the hospital she was still having trouble swallowing and was coughing.

I took my first Pfizer dose vaccine on April-20-2021, after that I had dizziness along with blood pressure fluctuation, first it was high and then low to normal in 10 minutes interval and dizziness continued for a week I took 2nd dose on May-11-2021 and then I felt dizzy with mild abdomen pain, and pain got severe. On day 3 onwards I had heavy back pain and stabbing pain in the middle of the chest that continued for next 2 days. On day 5 pain was intolerable chest pain& shortness of breath and I visited Emergency care for the treatment at midnight with the pulse rate of 145 ( checked at home) took EKG, blood test and chest X-ray. But in blood test D-dimer was normal after 2 hrs in emergency care I was discharged with same level of pain. Next day visited Primary care to seek the consultation and she advised to take the CT scan but the pain got severe. Again I went to ER, this time D-Dimer was higher(2 times) than previous day. So they took the CT scan to ruled out Pulmonary embolism. But ER doctor doubted Bronchial wall thickening which may reflect bronchitis or reactive airvey disease. On day 7 I had numbness on my right side and felt tingling sensation on my chin with blurred vision, dizziness, heavy headache with visible veins. After all the test, Primary care told I had costochondritis because of the irritation caused by vaccine. I'm yet to visit eye and neurologist to check the other symptons. Though I was normal before as I took the full body checkup which was clear, because of this vaccine I have these adverse side effects which affects my daily activities. I can provide the documents if needed.

felt a lump in the back throat; difficult to swallow; breathing difficulty; panic attack; mouth became increasingly dry; throat becoming more sore; hot flashes to my face; urgency to use the restroom; swollen throat; This is a spontaneous report received from a contactable consumer, the patient. A 34-year-old non pregnant female patient received first dose of BNT162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE; Lot number: EN6208) via an unspecified route in the right arm on 18Mar2021 at 07:15 (at the age of 34-years-old), as a single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included Benign tumour removed schwanoma (3.5lbs). The patient had a history of allergy to penicillin, latex (nurse used latex free gloves) and normally that just cause a rash. Prior to the vaccination, the patient was not diagnosed with COVID-19. Since the vaccination, the patient had not tested for COVID-19. The patient did not receive any other vaccines within four weeks prior to the vaccination. The patient received macrogol 3350 (MIRALAX) for unknown indication within two weeks of vaccination. On 18Mar2021 at 07:15, the patient was very excited to get vaccine, within seconds of the shot she felt a lump in the back of her throat and difficult to swallow but was able to breathe and swallow. The patient also stated that throat was still very sore but she could breathe and swallow easily. The patient went back to paramedics in observation they told her she was having a panic attack which she never had before. The patient went back to her seat for a few minutes but her mouth became increasingly dry with difficulty to swallow and throat became sorer along with a few hot flashes to face, and felt an urgency to use the restroom. Nurse wheeled her out to bathroom and then took her to paramedics. They took her blood pressure and heart rate and told that she had a panic attack. The patient was not nervous about getting it so she did not know why that would be. Her throat stayed sore and swollen for about 48 hours. The patient had taken Miralax 3 days prior with no reactions. Doctor still wanted her to get second vaccine but she was scared of anaphylaxis. The patient did not receive treatment for the reported events. Adverse events resulted in doctor or other healthcare professional office/clinic visit. The clinical outcome of felt a lump in the back throat, difficult to swallow, breathing difficulty, panic attack, mouth became increasingly dry, throat became more sore, hot flashes to my face, urgency to use the restroom and swollen throat were recovering at the time of this report. No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information is expected.

Five days after receiving the vaccine I experienced fluttering in my chest and shortness of breath. I experienced these symptoms for approximately one month. I did not have a cough or any mucus. It seemed difficult to identify why I was feeling this way. I went running approximately a week after my symptoms began and tasted blood while I was running. I run semi frequently and have never experienced that symptom with exercise.

Approximately two hours after the shot, a cold sore/blister popped up on my bottom lip. Within minutes, I felt my tongue begin to swell and then my airway began to swell/constrict and it was difficult to breathe. This caused my heart rate to increase and I was forced to lie down. I took an antihistamine and monitored my oxygen and had to remain lying down for about two hours. I then began to feel better. I did not have to use an Epi pen. I still felt dizzy with an increased heart rate and some difficulty breathing from time to time that evening, but it was better than the initial reaction. After that I had two incidents within the month after the shot of feeling like it was difficult to breathe again. Since April, I have not had any more incidents of difficulty breathing/constricted airway/heart racing. I was advised not to get the second dose due to my reaction. I informed my doctor of the reaction and then went for a doctor's visit a couple of months later to get a full check up due to the two other incidents of difficulty breathing after the vaccine and to make sure everything seemed okay.

I had filed a previous report and have since had progressive symptoms, and also left out symptoms that at the time I didn't know were important to include. I spoke with a member of V-safe today, and she instructed me to send a new report. My current diagnosis of post-vaccine adverse reactions include vestibular neuritis, presumed small fiber neuropathy, and am undergoing cardiac evaluation currently for possible myocarditis versus POTS/dysautonomia. Below is more detailed information: I received the second dose of Pfizer on Friday January 8th. 13 hours after receiving the vaccine, I started with flu like symptoms (HA, neck pain, body aches, fever, restless, nausea, vomiting). 36 hours post-vaccine, I had profound fatigue, still felt feverish, scattered hives, headache and neck pain, and had intermittent dizziness. Day 3 and until this day I have had vertigo. That first week I had chest pain and dyspnea that would come and go, lasting until 2 (ish) weeks post-vaccine before seemingly resolving (more on this later). I was hospitalized Jan 15-16th, had extensive testing (CT, MRI, labs), and was diagnosed with vestibular neuritis from the vaccine. Headache and neck pain lasted through Jan 19th (ish). The weekend of Jan 23-24, I had paresthesias of my hands, feet, L forearm and L cheek that seemingly resolved. The vertigo was the main symptom (with the exception of hives that would occur nightly on my chest/back/neck for about 30 minutes (ish) and would self resolve) from Jan 25-April. The vertigo slowly improved over this time (missed many, many weeks off work for it). My husband and I would notice that I had issues with short term memory and word finding at times, with making easy decisions, and crowds would flare up all symptoms. PT reported that my therapy was unusual in that I had mild delayed cognitive slowing on their testing which is unusual for vertigo patients and more consistent in their concussion patients. I did additional vision therapy with OT as well. I don't know if this is important or not, but I started having hair loss in March and my menstrual cycles were irregular for Jan, Feb and March. In April things unexpectedly progressed. Early April I started with tinnitus which is still present to this day. April 29th I suddenly had a return of paresthesias, this time ascending, starting from hands/feet that progressed up my entire arms and legs bilaterally. I also developed weakness in my legs and arms where it was difficult to go upstairs and brush my hair. I saw my pcp, had a normal neuro exam, and was referred to neurology. I also had a return of chest pain this day and starting having issues with intermittent brain fog. I saw neurology on May 5th. The weakness was coming and going, not frequently, but the paresthesias persisted. I had a negative EMG on June 10th and was diagnosed with presumed small fiber neuropathy. No further work up or medications recommended by my neurologist. Since April 29th, I've had 3-4 discreet episodes of muscle weakness where walking any significant distance/up steps is difficult as noted above, lasting half a day-48 hours when it comes. The paresthesias have been persistent since April 29th. It's mainly in my hands/feet, forearms, and mid shin. Intensity waxes and wanes, sometimes I can't sleep due to the intense burning sensation. Sometimes I have issues where my hands feel clumsy such as with texting or some of the procedures I perform at work. July 2nd I again had another progression of symptoms while at work. I had worsening vertigo and paresthesia first, followed by intense chest pain with intermittent dyspnea, and later in the afternoon brain fog. I had been having intermittent chest pain since the end of April, but this was worse than I had ever had, and I also noted I was having intermittent palpitations/tachycardia. I ignored the issue until I went home and found my HR 100-120s for an hour while at rest. The tachycardia at rest did normalize after that hour. What I've had since then is intermittent tachycardia with standing/short walking and persistent frequent episodic chest pain both at rest and with exertion, long episodes (rare that i don't have pain), worse with exertion. Have been profoundly fatigued since this started. I woke up July 4th around 4am with intense chest pain and rapid HR and confusion, I think it lasted for a few minutes before I went back to sleep. July 4th daytime I had to stop in the middle of a flight of steps due to chest pain and dyspnea which is unusual for me. July 5-8 I was essentially confined to my couch due to feeling unwell/lightheaded/weak with any light activity (such as walking from the living room to the kitchen). Today my symptoms were slighty better, I was able to go to work for 3 hours administratively but again worsening symptoms with activity. I did see my pcp on July 8th, have a holter monitor from this visit with planned 14 day duration. On July 19th I had a stress echo which was remarkable only for trivial MR and smaller LV cavity size with exercise. Next step is for cardiac MRI to r/o myocarditis, but also POTS/dysautonomia is on the differential as well in terms of the cause of my CP and DOE.

I am an APRN, and received the vaccine not quite one week ago. I waited 15 minutes within the facility and then left. Sat in my car working for about 8-10 minutes when a sudden rush of heat ran through my body. I felt lightheaded, my tongue was prickly, and I felt like I was going to pass out. I was able to get back into the facility to let them know of the sudden symptoms. At that time I felt like my heart was racing and was diaphoretic. They continued to watch me for another 15-20 minutes, they did have an epi pen but it was not given. I was feeling slightly better and then left again. I waited in my car approximately 20 minutes before deciding it would be safe to drive away. After driving for about 10 minutes I had another rush of heat, lightheadedness, and then I started having shortness of breath. At this time it would have been about 1 hour, maybe longer, since receiving the vaccine. I was not close to an emergency medical facility at that time, and did not feel like my throat was swelling so thought it would be best to try to drive to the nearest ER. I knew I had an epi pen from my work that I could use if needed. I contacted another nurse practitioner who I work with who stayed on the phone with me until I was able to get to a safe place. At that time the symptoms had improved, not resolved. It had been able 20 minutes during this episode. In all, I continued to feel jittery for about 3-4 more hours. Since my symptoms did improve I did not go to the ER. I contacted my health department, Louisville health dept, the following day and reported symptoms to the medical director.

A 35-year-old female patient received the first single dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) ( (lot number was unknown) intramuscularly on 17Dec2020 at 0.3ml, and the second single dose (lot number EJ1685) intramuscularly on 04Jan2021 07:45 at 0.3ml, for COVID-19 prophylaxis. Medical history included ongoing diabetes. Her diabetes was diagnosed about 6 months ago (reported on 06Jan2021) and was well controlled. Her glucose was at 140 at the ER (emergency room) even after drinking a drink that had sugar in it. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. The patient received the second dose on 04Jan2021 at 07:45 and experienced a severe reaction hours after she received it, and she ended up having to go the ER and that they were baffled about what happened.

Her symptoms started about 9-10 at night on 04Jan2021. She said that she felt like with the second dose she noticed the soreness and pain and redness at injection site after about 2 hours after receiving the second dose, which was sooner than with the first injection. The fever started with the chills and body aches. The chills and body aches started at 22:00 on 04Jan2021. She took acetaminophen and melatonin to try and sleep it off. Fever was after that at around midnight 04Jan2021 and she was burning in fever and her temperature was 104. She stated she started taking layers off and got out from under her covers. She had a sweater on when she took her temperature and her axillary temperature was 105. She said that she got into a hot shower because that was the only thing that provided comfort to her chills. She had not had any chills in about the last 12 hours though (as reported on 06Jan2021). She said that the body aches were so severe that she just sat in her bed and cried. She had tachycardia and she was grunting in pain. She was rotating ibuprofen and acetaminophen and then her fever was not as high. She stated that if her fever came back it was lower each time, and if she did not take the medications though, the bone pain was excruciating. She said that with the bone pain it was like no-one can hold her hand or hug her. Fatigue started at around midnight 04Jan2021. Her headache was at midnight. She felt like she had a headband on and was radiating down the back of her neck. She noticed the lymph nodes were swollen after she went to the ER at around 07:00-08:00 05Jan2021. She was walking with pillow under her arm, and if she moved or lifted her arm it hurt. She went to the ER at 01:00 05Jan2021. Her blood pressure was 90/50, her heart rate was 144-152 at rest, temperature was 102.8, O2 saturation was 95-96. She said that it was painful to breath and she was grunting, but did not have any breathing issues. The nurse thought she was septic and notified the doctor. The nurse and the doctor did not think it was the vaccine and thought that she was COVID-19 positive. But after they tested her, she was negative for flu and COVID and they were baffled. They were unclear on what happened and did not think it was from the vaccine. They bolused her 1 liter of Normal Saline and gave her a dose of Fentanyl that minimally helped with the bone pain. She was also given 30mg of ketorolac (TORADOL) IV (intravenous) and that significantly improved her pain. She was there a total of 3 hours. She was admitted to the back area of the ER. She said that they drew labs and everything was within normal limits. Her CRP (C-reactive protein) was 30 and her lactate was at 1.5. She said that they told her that she was most likely having an immune response to the vaccine. Her heart rate and blood pressure came to a more normal range and everything returned to baseline. Her heart rate was 109. She was told to rotate paracetamol (TYLENOL) and ibuprofen for at least the next 24 hours and hydrate. The events fever, chills, fatigue, joint pain, bone pain, headache, swollen lymph nodes, and swelling, pain, redness and soreness at the injection site were serious due to hospitalization from 05Jan2021 to 05Jan2021. The patient was recovering from fever, chills, joint pain, headache, heart rate and blood pressure, not recovered from fatigue, bone pain, swollen lymph nodes and swelling, pain, redness and soreness at the injection site. The event swollen lymph nodes worsened. The outcome of "injection site itched a little bit" was unknown. The reporter considered the events fever, chills, fatigue, joint pain, bone pain, headache, swollen lymph nodes, and swelling, pain, redness and soreness at the injection site were all related to the vaccine; Sender's Comments: Based on temporal association, the causal relationship between BNT162B2 and the events pyrexia, chills, fatigue, pain, arthralgia, bone pain, headache, lymphadenopathy, vaccination site erythema, vaccination site swelling, vaccination site pain, blood pressure decreased, tachycardia, grunting and vaccination site pruritus cannot be excluded.

Got vaccine on 01/15/21 and on 01/16/21 around 11:30 pm I started having rapid heart rate and shortness of breath. I also had a metal taste in my mouth. Before the rapid heart rate started, j bad chills, diarrhea and slight body aches. For about four to five hours my heart rate resting would be 60's and when a spell came on it would rise up to high 90's. It did this off and on every couple of minutes for about four to five hours. It was a very scary situation to be in: I can handle the chills, bod aches and diarrhea but when it comes to my heart rate bouncing around and taking my breath away, that was scary.

Received Pfizer COVID vaccine on Wed night 1/31/21 at 5:50pm. I had no prior recent illnesses prior to getting the shot. About 24 hours later, developed fevers/chills, body aches, headaches, and fatigue, and a notable pain in the front of neck -- felt like tender thyroid. Temp was 100.3F on Thursday night 1/14. Took ibuprofen and went to bed. Next day felt fine, went to work, but symptoms returned on Friday night without fever. Symptoms persisted through the weekend without fever until Sunday AM 1/17/21 at 3:40am, I woke up with a temp of 101.7F. Went to get tested for COVID on Sunday 1/17/21 and Tuesday 1/19/21. Both times were negative (both rapid and PCR). Remained febrile on Monday and Tuesday AM. Went to urgent care on Monday 1/18/21 and was negative for flu, but provider observed the thyroid was tender. TSH was checked on 1/18/21 and was abnormal, 0.027 and FT4 was 3.20. Had virtual appt with PCP on 1/19/21, and she ordered more blood tests to evaluate the hyperthyroidism. On 1/21, repeat TSH was 0.014, and FT4 and T3 were both high. Inflammatory markers were elevated, liver function tests were mildly elevated, but thyroid antibodies were all negative. Over the course of the week after getting the shot, I experienced tachycardia, palpitations, fatigue, and shortness of breath and dyspnea on exertion with simple tasks like walking up a flight of stairs or getting up from the couch to walk to the kitchen. PCP ordered an echocardiogram to evaluate the dyspnea on exertion, but it was normal. I had radioactive iodine uptake thyroid scan performed on 2/3 and 2/4, and it was notable for markedly low 24-hour uptake, consistent with Hashimoto's thyroiditis, or other types of thyroiditis. As of 2/5/21, I am feeling significantly better from the past 3 weeks, and the hyperthyroid symptoms have improved and flu-like symptoms have resolved. Due to possible relation to the vaccine, I have delayed the 21-day booster shot to 23 days, and plan to get it this afternoon 2/5/21.

Within a week after the first vaccine, I was diagnosed with upper respiratory infection that was causing my asthma to flare up. I was treated with antibiotics and started on Advair. After completion of antibiotics, I received my second Covid vaccine. After the second dose, symptoms continued to worsen and I continued to have issues with asthma and cough. Returned to urgent care and told that it was likely bronchitis. Treated with another round of antibiotics and added a round of prednisone in addition to the other meds to help reduce airway inflammation. Again, I completed this course of treatment, but did not find much relief in asthma and airway issues. I returned to the doctor again. She recommended continuing steroids for longer and stated that this was just asthma at that point and that we needed to continue to treat the inflammation. Within a week, I was back at my PCP for continued symptoms. He increased corticosteroids and recommended nebulizer treatments. I later had a follow up with pulmonology who agreed that this is asthma, and changed corticosteroids from inhaled to nebulizer to try to prevent asthma flare ups. I have continued this treatment, but have even had to go to the ER for uncontrolled asthma within the recent days. I continue to only be able to tolerate minimal activity without having a reactive airway. I am currently on a high dose steroid taper in addition to Brovana, Albuterol, Singulair, Allegra, Pulmicort, Yupelri, and budesonide.

Reported information from patient: I had a severe reaction to the COVID-19 vaccine. Met with Dr. and did a series of skin testing for PEG allergy. All were negative and progressed to a microdose of the vaccine. Continued to have no reaction so remaining dose was administered. I waited 2 hours in clinic and experienced some mild pruritic symptoms. Took 2 zytrtec and went home. the next day experienced some throat swelling with shortness of breath. Took additional allergy medication and contacted Dr. He prescribed prednisone and up to 4 allergy tabs a day. I developed increased shortness of breath, hives on my tongue which developed into ulcerations. The waves of throat swelling would come every 4 hours or so. Was able to manage with oral agents, did not administer the prescribed epi-pen. These symptoms started on that Tuesday and were severe enough to keep me home from work until Feb 15th (I work Monday/Wednesday). Throat swelling and coughing persists but it markedly improved. Now understand I have a non-IGE mediated allergy to PEG. Patient wanted to receive the COVID vaccine so was seen by an allergist given previous history of possible polyethylene glycol allergy. Following review and discussion of risks patient was scheduled to receive a test dose. Provider notes as follows: She has had several occasions where she has developed shortness of breath and "generally not feeling well," within 1 to 2 hours of taking MiraLAX. She has not had any reactions to any prior injectable medications or vaccinations. Due to this MiraLAX potential allergy there is a contraindication to receiving the Pfizer or my during a Covid vaccine. What I have recommended since she would like to be vaccinated is to have her to return to clinic at which time we will do skin testing with skin prick and intradermal to polyethylene glycol as well as polysorbate 20 and polysorbate 80. If the allergy testing to polyethylene clean glycol is negative we will then give her graded dosing of the COVID-19 vaccine and monitor her in clinic. If the polyethylene glycol is positive but the polysorbate testing are negative she may be a candidate for receiving one of the newer vaccines which are yet to be on the market. The patient was seen today for a new problem which is polyethylene glycol allergy and the need for COVID-19 vaccination. She will return for testing to the vaccine components and then intramuscular graded challenge if necessary. Prior to the graded challenge skin prick testing to MiraLAX was completed which was negative. Skin prick testing and intradermal testing was also completed for Solu-Medrol, Depo-Medrol and triamcinolone. The Depo-Medrol contains polyethylene glycol, the triamcinolone contains polysorbate 80 and the Solu-Medrol functions as a control without any polyethylene glycol or polysorbate. All skin prick and intradermal testing was negative. An ~10% dose of the COVID-19 vaccine was given and the patient was monitored for 30 minutes. The remaining ~90% of the COVID-19 vaccine was then given and the patient was monitored for an additional 90 minutes. The patient received pre-medications with: Zyrtec and Tylenol

She said she called her work, and her boss (medical doctor) told her to take some Tylenol and rest, and to call her primary care doctor if she was not feeling better. Patient said that her primary care doctor said she was having anxiety, and started her on medicine. She said the medicine helped, but her heart rate was still 112-115. She said she noticed on Thursday evening (14Jan2021) through Friday morning (15Jan2021) the lymph nodes in her left axillary (or armpit area) were swollen, and super tender. She said all the muscles in her left arm were tender, as well. She said her left arm muscles were still aching. She said she had bruising on her left arm, and noticed she had bruising (more than usual) throughout the rest of her body. She said she has no idea if the bruising is a coincidence, or if the bruising is related to receiving the COVID-19 Vaccine. Patient mentioned that her left axillary lymph nodes were swollen for a good week and a half, but the swelling improved and was gone now. She said her heart rate was still elevated at 106-110 when she last checked her heart rate an hour and half ago. She said her heart rate was elevated, even though she was sitting down doing tele-work, and she has been taking anxiety medicine. She said she was still having breathing discomfort, clarifying she could not take a big enough breath. Patient will take a big breath, and will be good for a while, but then she needs to take another big breath. She said her doctor has checked her lungs, and her lungs were clear. She said she has to take multiple, deep breaths throughout the day. Patient's last blood work was in Oct2020. She said everything was good with her blood work. She said her hormones were good, but she had a Vitamin D deficiency. For treatment, patient stated that her primary care doctor prescribed Buspar 7.5mg, twice a day. She said the Buspar 7.5mg was dispensed in a pharmacy bottle and did not have the NCD, Lot, and Expiration Date. She said it will be 3 weeks from tomorrow (03Feb2021) she has been taking the Buspar 7.5mg and reported everyone seems to think she has anxiety, or she was crazy. Events did not require emergency room visit but patient visited physician office. There were no relevant tests. Outcome of muscles in her left arm were tender/aching, was not recovered, for axillary lymph nodes swelling and tender was recovered in 2021, for heart rate was elevated, Shortness of breath/breathing discomfort was recovering while for other events was unknown.

Six days after receiving vaccine, began feeling unwell. Symptoms are extreme fatigue, red eyes, sore eyes, body aches, joint pain, pain around back/ribs, shortness of breath on exertion. Unable to do usual household tasks and requiring bedrest for much of the day. The symptoms are very similar to the waves of symptoms I experienced early on in Post-Acute Covid-19 syndrome. I got sick in March and was experiencing waves like this through November. Since November, my physical symptoms had abated and I had not suffered a major relapse like this, besides a mild relapse at end of January. My shortness of breath issues, back pain/rib pain, eye soreness are very specific symptoms that I associate with early on in my long covid experience. The vaccine seems to have triggered a major relapse in my long covid symptoms.

It did not manifest in a normal way- I started coughing and needed my inhaler, proceeded to feel as if my legs were covered in fire ant bites and swollen, the skin all over my body itched to the point that I broke the skin, my face became bright red and hivey, and my throat began to tighten as if someone were choking me. The only reason I did not use my Epipen was the fact that I could still breathe through this, even if it was a bit labored. I should add that my reaction began 1.5 hours after I was vaccinated. I?ve been managing having life threatening allergies since I was a child, but this reaction resembled nothing I?ve ever experienced. After using 50 mg of Benadryl, my symptoms were manageable. The pain at the injection site lasted for five days and caused intermittent numbness to my pinky finger and up my neck.

I drove home and about 40 minutes after the shot I started having slight trouble breathing. It felt as if one of my kids was sitting on my chest. I could still breathe but it was a bit harder so I took deeper breaths. The trouble breathing didn?t get worse and only lasted 5 minutes. I also felt slightly dizzy for a few seconds but that went away. Currently it has been 3 hours and 24 minutes since the shot and I feel completely fine and back to normal. My only complaint is a sore arm.

35-year-old female with history of asthma presents for evaluation of allergic reaction. Patient says she has a history of allergy to the flu shot. She received the first Covid 19 vaccination following her visit with her pulmonology provider today. Shortly after this she developed feelings of throat closure, wheezing and a hoarseness to her voice. She was brought down to the emergency department for further evaluation. She has no history of anaphylaxis and has never been given the EpiPen. She denies any history of chest pain, abdominal pain, nausea/vomiting, skin rash, lightheadedness or dizziness. Medications Given in the ED: 4/02 Meds 1:24 p Famotidine 20 mg IV Push; MethylPREDNISolone 125 mg IV Push; DiphenhydrAMINE 25 mg IV Push 1:21 p Albuterol-ipratropium 3 mL Aerosolized 35-year-old female presents for evaluation of allergic reaction following Covid 19 vaccination. Overall she is in no acute respiratory distress. Initially when I walked into the room she did appear anxious, and her voice was a bit hoarse. Lung sounds show subtle wheezing bilaterally. Respiratory at bedside. On further conversation with the patient her voice clarity seemed to improve significantly and she seems to be talking at her baseline. She feels overall that the sensation of throat closure is improving. No other symptoms to suggest acute anaphylaxis and we'll hold on epinephrine administration at this time. Patient was administered IV Benadryl, famotidine, Solu-Medrol in the emergency department. She was observed for approximately 2 hours after which time she says she is feeling back to baseline. We'll plan to discharge with prescription for EpiPen, and instructions for use discussed with the patient. Also discharged with prescription for burst course prednisone steroids. Return precautions discussed and she was discharged in stable condition.

I laid down on a cot at the vaccination site for about half an hour. While walking back to my car, I was very fatigued (the walk felt long and difficult and had been fine when coming in). Over the next 12 hours, experienced fatigue, chills, and nausea with mild body aches. 12 hours after injection, I began experiencing fever, chills, sweating, nausea without vomiting, and severe muscle and joint aches throughout my entire body. The muscle aches were extremely painful and seemed to worsen nausea. Fever increased to 100.5 at highest reading. All of these symptoms continued until about 48 hours after initial injection. 5 days after injection, I am still experiencing mild to moderate nausea, dizziness, fatigue with shortness of breath, and mild to moderate muscle aches that increase with exercise.

Patient was seen at offsite UNM-Gallup COVID vaccine event today 4/8/21. At ~1305, provider was asked to assess this 35yo who had received her 2nd dose of Pfizer COVID vaccine at 1247, with complaint of itchy rash to neck and throat "tightening." She has a hx of multiple drug allergies and is on multiple medications as below for seizure disorder and other comorbidities. She had reported a hives rash after her first dose of COVID vaccine 3wks ago. As such, she had taken 50mg benadryl at ~1200 today to attempt to prevent a reaction. On limited evaluation, her oral airway was clear without obvious angioedema. She did have hives to her neck and was quite pruritic. Her lungs were clear and she was moving air without wheeze. She began slurring her speech and seemed confused, which her family member reported is how she becomes before seizures. With concern for anaphylaxis, gave a dose of 0.3mg IM epinephrine. EMS was called to transfer patient to ED. Dose epi given at 1320, with almost immediate improvement in hives, pruritus and notable improvement in mentation and slurring of speech. EMS arrived at ~1325, patient found to have HR 106, BP 180/84 after epi. She was transferred in stable but acute condition.

I had been having allergy symptoms and asthma - coughing and shortness of breath which had been going on prior to vaccine but it got worse enough that I was having to use my inhaler many days a week to help with my symptoms. I had to contact my doctor to get on a daily maintenance inhaler for my daily symptoms I was having. They put me on Pulmicort Inhaler. They did have to escalate the dose a couple of weeks ago because my symptoms were not resolving. I am pretty being treated more aggressively and I have a referral to a pulmonologist but haven't seen him yet. I have not been scheduled yet. This is my first pregnancy; estimated date of delivery is June 4, 2021.

Phone call with client after she cancelled her dose 2 appointment. She states that within 3 hours of dose 1 Pfizer, she had generalized hives which progressed to throat & mouth swelling & itching. She took Diphenhydramine & Zyrtec. She also has been in regular contact with her PCP who has her taking Zyrtec daily. The hives continue & she states they've "started resembling chigger bites". They seem to improve but she scratches them to the point of bleeding/breaking the skin. Her PCP told her not to get the 2nd dose & called this a "near anaphylactic reaction". She will wait several months before considering getting the Janssen vaccine, but for now she's content with the level of coverage one dose provides. I asked her to continue to stay in touch with her PCP & advised that she may need some steroids should this skin reaction continue. She verbalized understanding. Her dose 2 appointment is cancelled.

Client then added that she felt "anxious" after receiving her shot and stated some reluctance with even receiving the shot prior to her arrival. Client's mother was present and stated that client had been reading the Pfizer fact sheet she was given and had been focusing on the side effects portion before signaling for assistance. Client's initial vitals were as follows: Blood pressure:138/88, Pulse 76, Respirations 20, O2 sat 100%, Eyes equal and reactive to light, Lung sounds clear bilaterally. Client initially consented to staying an additional 30 minutes. She began to become anxious and impatient with her additional observation time. After 10 minutes of sitting the client began stating that she was afraid that her "heart would become too "fast" when she got home if she "didn't throw it away." After some encouragement, the client was able to clarify "it" as "meth" which she had hidden at home. Client stated some reluctance to go home stating that if she smoked her "meth" that her heart rate would become too "fast." Client then asked EMT if he was willing to come home with her to help her "throw it away." All staff present praised the client for sharing this information and after discussing her concerns further, client became much calmer and stated that she felt much safer and that her chest pain, shortness of breath and anxiety had subsided. Client then stated that she wanted to go home but consented to a second set of vitals before leaving. All of the client's vitals improved: blood pressure 132/88, pulse 68, respirations 16, O2 sat 98%. 1636 - 138/88, 76, 20, 100% 1651 - 132/88, 68, 16, 98%. Client was encouraged to discuss the incident with her psychiatrist and to seek further counseling. Client was also instructed to seek further medical care or the emergency room if symptoms returned. No medications were administered.

Patient reports tingling within a minute of administration and spreading sensation and numbness down her arm to her fingers. Patient stayed in store for 15 minutes, then an additional 15 minutes due to the development of the adverse event. When patient left in her car, she started feeling a little warm. After 5 or 10 minutes she felt a discomfort and eventual "lump in her throat". Throat tightness ensued similar to an asthma attack, producing a deep ruby red in back of throat with tonsils swollen. Patient pulled over, experiencing lightheadedness. Patient describes this as an anaphylactic response. Her reaction did not worsen but did not immediately improve. Patient was on phone with husband until arriving home. She then took a diphenhydramine (about an hour and 15 minutes after the administration of the vaccine).

Patient main issue was arm pain with restricted range of motion at time of dr's visit. Throat was improved but less severe. Dr instructed her to not take second dose.

low grade fevers; Severe allergic reaction; after she took the Tylenol and then the Advil, she felt drugged, like totally out of it; so tired she couldn't move; getting really winded; for the 4-5 days after receiving her Covid 19 vaccine she would wake up at that same time around 1:30AM since it started on 20Mar2021; extremely thirsty; Even going to the bathroom or getting up from the couch her heartrate would go up to the 120-130s; Her heart was doing lots of rapid jumps; Her heart was doing lots of rapid jumps; her heart was racing; SOB and Dates for getting really winded; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer A female patient of an unspecified age received the first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 MRNA VACCINE, Lot Number: ER2613), via an unspecified route of administration on 19Mar2021 (at the age of 35-years-old) as a single dose in the left arm for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included mixed connective tissue disease diagnosed in 2019, autoimmune disorder and anxiety from unknown dates and unknown if ongoing. Concomitant medication included diazepam (VALIUM) taken for anxiety, start and stop date were not reported; paracetamol (TYLENOL A) taken for an unspecified indication, start and stop date were not reported; ibuprofen (ADVIL [IBUPROFEN]) taken for an unspecified indication, start and stop date were not reported. The patient experienced her heart was doing lots of rapid jumps (arrhythmia) on 20Mar2021 with outcome of not recovered sob and dates for getting really winded (dyspnoea) on Mar2021 with outcome of recovering, her heart was racing on 20Mar2021 with outcome of not recovered, getting really winded on 22Mar2021 with outcome of recovering, for the 4-5 days after receiving her covid 19 vaccine she would wake up at that same time around 1:30am since it started on 20mar2021 with outcome of unknown, extremely thirsty on 20Mar2021 with outcome of unknown, low grade fevers on an unspecified date with outcome of unknown, severe allergic reaction on an unspecified date with outcome of unknown, even going to the bathroom or getting up from the couch her heartrate would go up to the 120-130s on 20Mar2021 with outcome of not recovered. Additional details were provided as: "I started having a reaction within 12 hours of the shot that persisted. Four (4) days after I was at urgent care and was sent to see a cardiologist due to SOB and heart rate jumps that were happening." In the past two weeks the patient has seen the cardiologist, had ekgs and echos completed and and now is being sent to see an electrophysiologist. The cardiologist wants her to postpone the second dose until she sees the electrophysiologist since he doesn't know if this is exacerbation of something or was caused by the vaccine. She had her first dose on 19Mar2021 around 12:45PM-1:00PM in the afternoon. After her vaccine she was ok. She had actually taken a Valium before she went to get the Covid 19 vaccine because she was nervous. She doesn't know if taking the Valium before getting the Covid 19 vaccine had anything to do with her delayed reaction. She does not take the Valium every day. She woke up around 1:30AM Saturday morning, 20Mar2021 and her heart was racing. Her mother is a nurse and her mother came over the next day to monitor her. Her heart was doing lots of rapid jumps. Even going to the bathroom or getting up from the couch her heartrate would go up to the 120-130s. (beats per minute) She and her mother monitored her heart for a while and she called the clinic where she received the Covid 19 vaccine and the nurse told her to go to an Urgent Care. She does report she has an autoimmune disease and she was wondering if she was having a flare up that the Covid 19 vaccine had caused. She could not find a doctor to talk to her about it. Even her primary care doctor wouldn't help her. Everyone told her to go to an Urgent Care or the emergency room. On Monday, 22Mar2021, she tried to get up and move around but she was getting really winded. She was trying to do things she normally does like walking in her backyard or walking down the hallway. On Tuesday, 23Mar2021 she went to the urgent care. The urgent care did an EKG and told her she needed to see a cardiologist. She was able to see a cardiologist the next day on Tuesday, 24Mar2021. The cardiologist had her wear a Holter monitor to monitor her heart rate for 24 hours. The results showed that she was having arrhythmias, heart rate jumps. The cardiologist did more EKG's and an echocardiogram. The cardiologist wants her to see an electrophysiologist because of what he saw on the Holter monitor. She is asking if it's possible that she had a heart issue before and the Covid 19 vaccine brought it to the surface. She's read things online where people have had similar symptoms. Is it a side effect? She would also like to report that for the 4-5 days after receiving her Covid 19 vaccine she would wake up at that same time around 1:30AM since it started on 20Mar2021. She's unsure if she should get the second Covid 19 vaccine. Her second appointment is scheduled for this Friday, 09Apr2021. When she woke up that morning of 20Mar2021 she was extremely thirsty. She reports she does not drink alcohol because of her autoimmune disease, but the thirst she experienced felt like she had been drinking alcohol and was experiencing the extreme thirst that comes with a hangover. The first 5 days after receiving the Covid 19 vaccine were the worst and that's why she decided to go to the urgent care. Her heartrate hasn't improved. Her windedness had improved by the tenth or eleventh day. She can go on a walk and jump up and down with her daughter now. The windedness is lingering a little but is definitely improved. Her autoimmune disease is called Mixed Connective Tissue. She takes no medications for it. She manages it with her diet. Her mother had called her rheumatologist on call on Monday night, 22Mar2021 and asked him is there anything the caller can do or anything she can take. The rheumatologist on call told her to take Aleve. She didn't take Aleve but she did take Tylenol and then hours later she took Advil. She does normally run low grade fevers with her autoimmune disease. The fevers are never high, usually around 99.8F never going over 100F. The low grade fevers have been occurring prior to the Covid 19 vaccine for years. She reports that after she took the Tylenol (Tylenol Extra Strength 500mg, she took 2 tablets) and then the Advil (Advil 200mg, she took 1 tablet), she felt drugged, like totally out of it. So tired she couldn't move. And she's taken those medications before and never felt like that. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included electrocardiogram: arrhythmias, heart rate jumps on 23Mar2021. No follow-up attempts are possible; no further information expected.

Patient got the shot and felt a little tingly and sat down for 15 mins and could not stand up because she was too dizzy. Her daughter (also there receiving the shot) grabbed paramedics to check if this was common. The paramedics helped walk her to their triage room set up maybe 50 yards away. By the time they got there, patient was breaking out in hives on her face and chest. The paramedics started setting up an IV and that was when her throat started closing. Patient was given a shot of EPI while they finished the IV and gave her a bunch of other things in the IV. Patient got another shot of EPI in the ambulance on the way to the hospital and was put on an EPI drip while admitted. Patient stayed in the hospital while they tried several times to take her off EPI, but was not successful until the end of the third day (Thursday night) when she was sent home. Patient returned to hospital Monday and currently still under medical care at home. All adverse events start date was 06Apr2021 12:00. The adverse events resulted in doctor or other healthcare professional office/clinic visit, emergency room/department or urgent care. The seriousness criteria was hospitalization, life threatening illness (immediate risk of death from the event). Patient was hospitalized 3 days for the events, treatment included medication intervention. There was no covid prior vaccination, covid was tested post vaccination. Novel corona virus test via nasal swab on 13Jun2020 and 22Jun2020 were both negative; COVID-19 RT PCR via nasal swab on 21Jan2021 was negative. The outcome of events was recovering.

I am on the IUD and haven?t had a period in almost a year. After getting the shot I?ve had 3 separate instances of heavy spotting that lasted 2-3 days over the past month. In addition, the shot seemed to affect my arthritis. The next day I woke up and pretty bad inflammation in almost every joint for almost a week. I?ve been recovering from long-covid since last December and had mostly recovered at time of 1st shot. I noticed since then a re-emergence of the fatigue and breathing issues. The re-emergence was not horrible or life threatening but very noticeable. I had a follow-up breathing test yesterday (05/20/2021) and there was a decline from the previous breathing test taken in March.

I had an auto immune response to vaccine - felt numbing in arm right after vaccine; I noticed it going down my arm (the fluid from the injection). Once I left the building, I could feel that my face was numb and having tingling feeling .(Note: My neck sometimes causes me problems due to my pregnancy - before the vaccine - I was having an issue with my neck and that was going down into making my arms feel like they were going numb.) When my face went number, I had a hard time talking well for the next two or three days. My face and jaw were weak; my arms and hands were weak too. It went up my whole arm and on my torso (the numbness) - it was going up and down my body - it wasn't just staying in one place. I went to my mom's place and she gave me some juice. I did feel better when I had some juice but could tell I was having some kind of reaction. I did feel better when I drank the juice and some water. My husband met me for lunch and when I called him, I coughed - and I started seeing things around my eyes like I was going to pass out and I drank more water. I ate (burger) and I did feel a bit better. I was still having these issues with the numbness going from one part of my body to other. I drove home (30 minutes) and did feel a bit better. It felt like I was just "off" and not doing well - noticed I wasn't breathing as well. I noticed my heart was racing. I could feel my heart was having palpitations. I called the doctor for my pregnancy and she could tell I was trying to catch my breath. I was trying to stay calm through all of this and my mind wasn't racing. When I talked to her, she thought I should go to ER, she said I sounded out of breath and my heart was racing. At that point, I was nervous to drive, I was having some kind of vision problems - it was going in and out (like a disorientation). My husband drove me to ER. I drank some water though on the way and I felt better after doing that. I'm really sensitive to any kind of chemicals/drugs - I can be affected easily. (This is still within the first 2 hours after shot.) At ER, I drank more water. They told me not to take the 2nd vaccine at least while I was pregnant. They gave me Benadryl - IV 25 mg. And I felt so much better. Dr told me Benadryl can help with anxiety and with allergic reaction. The fast heartrate did go on for awhile - I did take Benadryl in the middle of the night that night and I had to take Benadryl through the next week or two to help sleep. I kept track of my heart rate because in the morning, I felt like I felt it more in the morning. I checked in with my doctor about it and she told me to watch it. It got up over 100 but it never got to the point that it was dangerous. Numbness finally went away eventually - it lasted about three or four days. My left eye was twitching - it took about three weeks for that to go away. I did get chills that night of the vaccine; I didn't get a fever. I slept - was so tired - I would get the meals for everyone but then take naps and I slept long at night and Benadryl helped with it. I did trip and fall the second or third day after the vaccine - I tripped on something - but I feel like I tripped because I was a little disorientated. I knew I had to be careful and take care of myself because of the symptoms. Four days after I had the shot, I got sick with COVID-like symptoms. Five days later I got a cough. I did not take a COVID test because other members of family tested and didn't have it. Pregnancy history - 6 pregnancies and 4 live births and the first one was a miscarriage. Due date: August 19, 2021

At a pharmacy, in a city, I received my shot at 11:23 am, right after I felt hot and sweaty behind my neck and into my chest. I sat down and rested for about 10 minutes hoping it would pass and then noticed my hands getting cold. My hands and arms started to tremor. The next thing that happened was I started having a hard time breathing, my chest felt tight. The pharmacist told me to take off my mask, but the tightness remained. My heart felt like it was pounding hard and the pharmacist took my pulse and checked my hands. My pulse was over 150 and my fingers were white and hands were bluish purple. I felt disoriented, slower to respond, harder to respond to questions. Paramedics were called. They didn't give me an epipen because I did not have airway closure. In the ambulance my blood pressure was taken and I was asked questions. I noted that my stomach was cramping slightly. I arrived at the ER at 12:03PM-encounter # 7509507. At the ER, I was given an EKG and that read normal. My pulse and blood pressure were also taken. BP was 169/85, PPR 89. I still felt shaky and weird with tingling in hands, still some chest tightness (like a rock sitting on my chest). I was given 25mg of Benadryl and a Gatorade and after some rest time I was allowed to leave.

(three days later) - note this sort of thing has happened before after certain drugs when taken in aggregate over days (Malarone, Gabapentin) For next 4 weeks I had a host of symptoms that were unliveable including (note: some have lasted longer) - Fainting spells, low blood pressure - Full body nerve pain and facial nerve pains that were very intense - Dry mouth - Tachycardia at night (RAPID heart beat) - Lip angioedema usually in the morning only to be controlled with antihsitimines (still the case months later) - Massive diarrhea usually in the morning with lip angiodema - Trouble breathing and chest pain and wheezing, one massive asthma attack Treatment: Antihistimines at first, but made POTS too bad so went off (helped swelling though) Steroid inhaler to help me breath Steroids (prednisone) burst in late April/early May - moderately helpful when on the course, but made digestive issues worse and acid reflux worse, lip burning and swelling came back after i went off this Post-Steroid burst: - Still having lip burning - Still having horrible dry mouth - Still trouble breathing and wheezing and shortness of breath - horrible digestive issues (acid reflux) - nerve pain Treatment post steroids - treated my MCAS - Quercetin, Vitamin C, and NAC, eventually found compounded allegra to work without the dysautonomia side effects and now on 180mg / day has helped a lot of these symptoms - Using Cromolyn Sodium nebulized for the breathing issues and chest pain - helping a lot for this! With the MCAS drugs I'm improved, but I still have the following (June 16) - horrible acid reflux all day every day (doesn't matter what I eat) - Dry mouth - I also have lip burning that is pretty constant (although swelling is down) - Moderate wheezing (but its better than before) - Moderate facial pain (but better than before) - Headaches (pretty sure it's a side effect of my meds)

I take the city bus across town and i had to take 2 buses and i got to work and it was raining, i got soaked. I walked into work and clocked in and went to go put things in order on the shelves and somebody was standing across from me and i just sneezed really hard. It became hard to breathe and i had to take a second to try and catch my breath and it felt like my throat locked up. I went to the back to try and catch my breath, and i asked to leave early and they ignored me because they didn't believe that i was sick. The shields at work were dirty and i didnt know if that had something to do with it.

The patient reported she did develop some side effects, but the hospital she received the vaccine at didn't know if it was an allergic reaction or what. She reported that a minute or two minutes after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine (14Jan2021), her heart rate became very fast, it went into like the 150's. She started feeling jittery, lightheaded, and she had some weakness of her lower extremities. She also felt nauseated. She didn't have any shortness of breath; she thinks she was okay there. She clarified that she had her mask on and they told her to remove her mask and to breathe, breathe, breathe. She had a pulse oximeter on, and her levels were always at 98, 96. She was told to sit still, and she was given water. Her heart rate went down to 76. She was fine and then after 5 minutes, she had the same reaction again. Her heart rate this time was in the 120's. She was lightheaded, cold, jittery. She did the same thing again and waited another 5- 10 minute. She felt better but was still nauseated, lightheaded, and really, really cold. She was kept there for 45 minutes. After that, she still did not feel 100%. Currently, she still does not feel 100% well. She was okay, she thinks she was okay. She explains they wanted to send her to the ER (emergency room) but she declined. Her heart rate had improved, she wasn't feeling like she was going to pass out. She wasn't experiencing shortness of breath, she wasn't throwing up, she didn't have a rash, her throat wasn't closing up, so she went back to work. She further stated that she came back home. Her heart rate was a little faster, but it wasn't as high as it had been. She still felt a little bit of weakness. At night (14Jan2021), she probably had a fever, she doesn't know. She was really thirsty and very hot. Because she was not feeling well, she didn't get up and drink anything. This morning (15Jan2021), she feels a little better. If she is doing her normal activities, she does get tired. She feels like she is running and is like "okay I feel tired". She has a little bit of weakness in her lower extremities. She was given information for reporting side effects, but because she wasn't feeling well, she didn't do any of it. She checked her heart rate today (15Jan2021) and it's at 76. She added that when she moves a lot, she feels tired and she doesn't know why. She's normally a very active person. She is no longer jittery, but still feels lightheaded. She has a little bit of nausea. She felt hungry so she made a shake and it's not like she is going to throw up, but she is still feeling yucky. She still has a little weakness of her lower extremities. They feel light, she doesn't know how to explain it. She is just a little bit concerned because this is a new vaccine. The outcome of event heart rate increased was recovering; outcome of event feeling jittery was recovered on an unspecified date; while the outcome of other events was unknown. The patient confirmed he doesn't believe it to be life threatening. She doesn't know if this is a severe allergic reaction. She was reading on the side effects the COVID-19 vaccine can cause. Per reporter all events were related to suspect product.; Sender's Comments: Based on the compatible time association, the contribution of suspect BNT162b2 to the event heart rate increased cannot be excluded.

Started with some nausea around noon on 1/18 that resolved, then experienced nausea without emesis and palpitations while driving to work at 1800. She describes it as feeling like her heart was racing, but also feeling like she was having large pauses in her heart rate in between the palpitation sensations. She drank a bottle of water and the feeling went away temporarily but it returned. I am an employee, on arriving to work I noted increased shortness of breath which is unusual for me because I am an avid runner and very active. I noted the palpitations from around 1800-2000, including becoming dizzy and lightheaded during my shift which could endanger patient care, so I presented to the ED and was placed in the CCA. I had received both covid vaccines, second one on 1/11/21 and had about 20H malaise/fatigue and some expiratory wheezing which was abnormal for her but all has since resolved. I had intermittent heart palpitations and chest until 1/26

Received the vaccine at 10:40am on 3/24/2021 and felt normal. At 1:20pm anaphylaxis set in - experienced tingling then tightness in throat, tongue swelled, swallowing would cause me to choke and tongue would get stuck blocking air passage. Hyperventilating began as I could not get enough air into my lungs. For 15 minutes tried drinking water and laying down to help open airways. Breathing slightly eased for 2-4 minutes and then the anaphylaxis would spike again. This happened 3x getting worse, I called my Primary Care Physician's office and was advised to go to the ER immediately. At 2:15pm I arrived at the ER and at 2:30pm I was given a 1mg shot of EPINEPHrine, and intravenous shots of diphenhydrAMINE, methylPREDNISolone, and famotidine along with oxygen. Anaphylaxis finally dissipated around 3:30pm and by 5pm I was breathing more normally. I was discharged at 7:00pm, and was feeling very energized. I was also given a prescription for an epipen incase I should have any further issues. The next morning, 3/25/2021 I woke up after 5 hours of sleep feeling extremely energized. I had a virtual doctor's appointment with my allergist, Dr. at 12:00pm. My doctor was surprised at how well I seemed to be doing and we made arrangements to do further allergy tests in 2 weeks. We came to the conclusion that I am most likely allergic to POLYETHYLENE GLYCOL. This ingredient is also in a cold medicine that I was taking in January and I was experiencing minor anaphylaxis (which I thought was due to the extreme congestion I was experiencing with the cold). It is also an ingredient (aka PEG) in an eye cream that caused a severe eczema patch under my eye in January. After my appt, at 1:30pm I went into anaphylaxis again. My throat got tingley and began to close, my tongue swelled and again was getting stuck in my throat when I attempted to swallow. I laid down and tried to get in deep breaths. My husband bought children's BENADRYL, which does not have polyethylene glycol in it, and gave me 15ml at 2:15pm. I reached out to my allergist, Dr. and updated him. He advised that I immediately take an additional 5ml of the BENADRYL. Dr. prescribed me 60mg/day Prednisone for 2 days followed by 40mg/day of Prednisone for 4 days, 40mg/day Famotidine for 2 weeks, 10mg/day antihistamine (I chose loratadine) for 2 weeks. Dr. also shared that I should have been prescribed steroids when I was discharged from the hospital, but my energetic state gave the impression I was OK. My manic energy was a result of the epinephrine, which had finally worn off 23 hours later, causing my body to begin the allergic reaction all over again. The evening of 3/25/2021 (after the first dose of 60mg prednisone, 40mg famotidine, and 10mg loratadine) and all three meals on 3/26/2021 I experienced minor anaphylaxis when I began to eat. Tightness in throat throughout the meal and lasting an additional 20 minutes following the meal. My throat has reopened after each incident on 3/26/2021 and I was able to breathe normally again.

In observation area, my tongue swelled up - nurse held be back for a bit to observe and gave me bottled water. The injection site arm went dead and unable to move (left arm stated on my vaccination card but it was the RIGHT arm that was jabbed. Another inconsistency of this whole process). I had weird tingliness shooting up to my neck/back of neck. After finally being released from the observation area when the tongue swelling went down, I was tired walking to my car. That night I was exhausted and couldn't get off the couch and nauseated. The nausea and fatigue hit in waves over the next day. On Monday (second morning after the shot), I could not get out of bed. After finally getting up, I went to work. At work I was still dealing with fatigued, shortness of breath, my head was dizzy and light, then mid-morning I had sharp stabbing chest pains under my left breast, the pain shot up to my left neck and jaw. I could not breathe. The more I tried to breathe, the sharper my chest pains became. I had emailed my primary care doctor twice that morning because of symptoms and never heard back so when the chest pains hit, I went to the ER. At the ER they ran EKG, blood work, XRays. Kept me all day. At the end, they told me I was healthy and let me go. The doctor had ZERO regard or interest in the fact that all of this started after the vaccine. No where in my notes was it noted that I had the vaccine. The nurses told me this was a trend with the patients coming into ER complaining of post-vaccine symptoms and not having them documented. I had breathing issues for almost two weeks after the vaccine where I would be short of breath and winded, not able to complete sentences without stopping for air. I still have awkward breathing moments. I called healthcare facility nightly to report this and again was told to just monitor my symptoms. I feel like this whole process has been an isolating, careless time where my vaccine side effects have NOT been taken seriously.

One hour after the shot, I felt a choking sensation at the top of my throat/back of my mouth. This happened right after I drank water for the first time after the shot. My father looked in my throat and said it was my uvula, which was enlarged and swollen. I also had a lot of red streaks and veins on my uvula and throat, similar to what it looks like in your eye when you have conjunctivitis. I could swallow, talk, and eat, so we did not go to the ER. However, this choking sensation and swelling did not dissipate at all for 13 days. I could technically eat, but I often didn?t because it was painful. I also had a tight heavy chest and was exhausted after small movements. After a week, a nurse suggested taking Benadryl and Pepcid for two days. I didn?t feel any difference, so I went to urgent care. A covid test was negative. The doctor there said to consult UAB and the CDC before getting the second shot because he was not sure if it was an allergic reaction. I have not been able to get in contact with anyone from either place. My symptoms sometimes go away and I get some relief now, but it hasn?t gone away completely. I would really appreciate some help in making the decision to take the second shot. It is scheduled for April 15 and I have been desperately asking for someone to call me. I?ve left a message on the CDC?s phone line. The UAB hospital just tells me to call the CDC. The state health dept said I should have the second shot administered inside a hospital instead of the drive-thru but did not help me get this arrangement. I am on my own with no advocate and I am disabled. The process of getting the first shot also contributed to what seemed to be an increase in sensory processing difficulties that are part of ASD.

~2 hours post-injection sharp pain in upper left abdomen under rib cage when breathing in but not constantly. Just every now and then. This lasted for ~72 hours. ~12 hours post-injection developed a mild fever, chills, body aches, and head ache. Body aches became so bad that I couldn't sleep, sit, stand, lay down comfortably. Every joint in my body felt like glass shards in it and it felt like my body would crumble. I felt like the TinMan with no oil. This lasted for about 28 course post-injection. Fever lasted about 48 hours, and headache lasted about 72 hours. ~36 hours post-injection I had a swollen lymph node on my left collarbone (shot was given in left arm). I'm now ~96 hours post-injection and swelling has not come down. From my left collar bone to my left elbow there is dull aching soreness, and in my armpit too. I have weakness in my left arm and when I try to reach for anything it feels like my armpit is going to rip. I hope this goes away soon.

The day after receiving my first vaccine, I began to develop a headache and fatigued. I was unable to move my left arm much higher than an inch or two. My arm pain got better after 24 hours, but the headache and fatigue persisted. I felt well enough to work on April 12, 13 and 14 and went outside my home on the 12, 14 and 15, interacting with other people while masked. On April 16, the extreme fatigue set in. I could not get out of bed. EXTREME. That entire weekend I stayed in bed with the chills and also developed nasal congestion that has persisted to the time of this writing (April 23). On April 19, I started spotting and started my period (old blood) two weeks early. That has for the most part subsided to the level of my usual discharge, though it is a bit heavier than normal. Also on April 19, the sore throat and chest pain started. I went for a COVID test today. Negative result. Chest pain is similar in location and scope to when I suffered with pericarditis years ago. Took a sick day off of work. Fatigue getting better, but very very wiped out by the end of the day. Brain is foggy. April 20 - virtual visit with my primary doctor to discuss symptoms. Chest pain continually getting worse, harder to take a deep breath, like when the doctor asks to "take a deep breath and hold it," that really hurts. Can breathe regularly fine. But just sitting on the couch I'm in pain. Laying down hurts the most. Get bloodwork, chest x-ray and covid test done. All normal. April 22 - Chest pain continues to get worse. Starting to cough. Go to Urgent Care at request of primary care doctor. Another covid test done, xray taken, flu swab., EKG. All normal. They send me to emergency room at Hospital additonal assessment. EKG, ultrasound of heart and lungs, bloodwork done, all normal. They send me home on ibuprofin and tell me to follow up with my cardiologist. They believe it to be presumptive pericarditis.

Upon receipt of follow-up information on 06Apr2021, this case now contains all required information to be considered valid. This is a spontaneous report from a contactable nurse (patient). A 36-year-old female patient received second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration on 17Jan2021 (Batch/Lot Number: EL3246) (at the age of 36-year-old) as single dose for COVID-19 immunisation.

The patient was transported to the hospital by ambulance three times due to the events (hospitalizations on 22Jan2021, 30Jan2021 and 25Mar2021). The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included Troponin, D dimer, electrocardiogram (EKG), Chest X ray, Full blood count (CBC), exercise electrocardiogram (TMT) all resulted: normal, nuclear stress test: unknown results and pulse 148-157, 209, all on unspecified date. The patient outcome of the events was unknown.; Sender's Comments: Based on available information, a possible contributory role of the subject product, BNT162B2 vaccine, cannot be excluded for the tachycardia and other reported events due to temporal relationship. However, the reported events may possibly represent intercurrent medical conditions in this patient. There is limited information provided in this report. Additional information is needed to better assess the case, including complete medical history, diagnostics, counteractive treatment measures and concomitant medications. This case will be reassessed once additional information is available. The impact of this report on the benefit/risk profile of the Pfizer product is evaluated as part of Pfizer procedures for safety evaluation, including the review and analysis of aggregate data for adverse events. Any safety concern identified as part of this review, as well as any appropriate action in response, will be promptly notified to Regulatory Authorities, Ethics Committees and Investigators, as appropriate.

Ongoing concomitant medications included loratadine (CLARITIN), paroxetine hydrochloride (PAXIL) and birth control. No prior Vaccinations (within 4 weeks). On 09Apr2021, the patient tested Positive for Covid on 09Apr2021, after receiving her second dose of the Pfizer Covid Vaccine on 03Apr2021. On the same day on 09Apr2021, the patient experienced hypoxia, fatigue, fluid in both lungs, loss of appetite and she wasn't feeling well. The patient (who had Downs Syndrome not that it matters but it is a co-morbidity/ Daughter has downs) and the patient's mother (reporter) had their second doses on 03Apr2021 which was a Saturday and her daughter ended up in the hospital on Friday 09Apr2021 and tested positive for Covid. The patient was admitted with hypoxia. The patient's mother has questions for the timelines for their infections. She doesn't know if they were possibly infected before they got the second vaccine and were asymptomatic and unknown or did they get infected when got they got the vaccine thousands of other people. The patient's mother stated that it has mostly resolved now, and they were all home. It started with fatigue and loss of appetite and she wasn't feeling well, so she took her to the doctor at 08:00 and she was at the emergency room (ER) by 08:30 and hospitalized from 09Apr2021 to 13Apr2021. The events required visit to Emergency Room and Physician's office. Treatment included Remdesivir, Steroid Injection and Oxygen. Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine Data Capture Aid included the following information: The patient had a positive test for SARS-CoV2. It was unknown if the patient had SARS-CoV2 antibodies at diagnosis. The patient was hospitalized from 09Apr2021 to 13Apr2021. The patient was not admitted to an Intensive Care Unit. The patient did not have SARS-CoV2 antibodies at hospital discharge. The patient displayed clinical signs at rest indicative of severe systemic illness including Oxygen Saturation on Admission was 83% on Room Air. The patient required supplemental oxygen (including high flow or ECMO). New or worsened symptoms/signs during the COVID-19 illness experienced (including date of onset/worsening) were Respiratory: Hypoxia, Fluid in Both Lungs and Dyspnea. The patient received additional therapies for COVID-19 including 5 Doses of Remdesivir starting 09Apr2021 and ending 13Apr2021. The reporter stated that she thinks they gave her a steroid injection in the ER. The event did not require the initiation of new medication or other treatment or procedure. The patient's outcome with COVID-19 was recovering. Patient has not had a repeat test. The patient had numerous Lab work. The patient was not a smoker/former smoker. The patient was taking medications routinely prior to the event being reported including Paxil, Claritin and Birth Control Pill. Pre-existing diseases worsened during the SARS-CoV2 infection including Asthma. The patient was not treated with immunomodulating or immunosuppressing medications or received any other vaccines around the time of COVID-19 vaccination. The patient underwent lab test and procedures including a Covid Test: Positive on 09Apr2021. The relatedness of drug to the events "Tested Positive for Covid on 09Apr2021, after receiving her second dose of the Pfizer Covid Vaccine on 03Apr2021, Hypoxia, Fatigue, Fluid in Both Lungs" was unknown (Source of assessment: Primary Source Reporter/ Method of assessment: Global Introspection). Causality was unknown because she doesn't know when they were exposed to the Covid. The reporter thinks the vaccine lessened their symptoms. Reporter seriousness for "Tested Positive for Covid on 09Apr2021, after receiving her second dose of the Pfizer Covid Vaccine on 03Apr2021, Hypoxia, Fluid in Both Lungs (medically significant)" was serious (hospitalization from 09Apr2021 to 13 Apr2021). Events Fatigue and Loss of Appetite were assessed as not serious by reporter. The outcome of the events Hypoxia, Fatigue, Fluid in Both Lungs, Loss of Appetite, she wasn't feeling well, COVID-19, dyspnea and Asthma aggravated was recovering and unknown outcome for the other event.; Sender's Comments: Based on the information currently available, vaccination failure of the suspected vaccine BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) cannot be completely excluded. Events hypoxia, pulmonary edema and dyspnea are attributed to Covid-19 infection and considered unrelated to BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE).

2:45pm, 18hours after vaccination, I started to feel unwell. A cold front came in and started a bad what I thought was a fibromyalgia flair up. Muscle pain. I was in severe pain until 4pm when things started going down hill. Muscles were tight all over my body including muscles pulling on my chest. I would describe as pulling heart apart from both sides. Muscles stiff. Torso filled with knots. Hyperventilating. Extreme muscle pain. Pain to where I could not stay still. I had on a blood oxygen reader. My blood oxygen number dropped to 64 and my pulse dropped to 38. My lips nose fingers toes and whole right side all the way down my leg were tingling .My husband did not tell me the numbers as he did not want to frighten me as I was already panicked. This lasted a half hour. I took my xanax and muscle relaxer. Not sure if this is what helped bring me out of it. Ok at 5pm. Started feeling unwell again at 9:45pm. Took bedtime med and went to sleep and was able to sleep it off. If i knew my numbers were that low I would have had my husband call 911 Felt similar to suspected covid case before tests were available to public. Mar/April 2020

A 36-year-old female patient received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number ER8737), administered in left arm on 01Apr2021 01:15 PM (at the age of 36-year-old) at single dose for so she could be protected from COVID (as reported). It was reported that vaccine was not administered at military facility and vaccination facility type was hospital (reported as patient drove up to vaccine clinic). The patient's medical history included acute lymphocytic leukemia from 1992 to 1996 and not ongoing (she was immunocompromised when she was young, she was a cancer survivor). No family medical history relevant to events was reported. The patient declined being sick at the time of vaccination. No patient's concomitant medications were reported. No prior vaccinations reported within four weeks. No additional vaccines were administered on same date of the Pfizer suspect. The patient previously took gentamycin, amoxicillin and flu shot, culture specific to the flu (as reported), and she experienced allergy with all three on 1996. Patient said that she was immunocompromised when she was young, she was a cancer survivor. She said that right after remission she developed a gentamycin allergy and, because of the gentamycin and amoxicillin allergy she was allergic to the flu shot, not the flu but the egg culture, because the egg culture can be that reaction. Patient also said that she had a reaction to a flu shot back in 1996 or something, it was the same rash that was with the COVID vaccine. It was reported that patient had her first Pfizer Covid vaccine dose on 01Apr2021. She reported side effects of heavy breathing, racing heart, feeling woozy, rash, and pain at the injection site. It was reported that she would like more information and she wanted to know if she should get the second dose of the vaccine. Patient had both an event to report and a question. She said she had done application, the first vaccine was 2 weeks before the present report and she was not supposed to get the second until this Thursday (19Apr2021), she needed to look at a calendar. She said 01Apr2021 was her first vaccine and that she did already report her events. She said she had a bad reaction that borderline sent her to the emergency room but she instead took a BENADRYL and she laid down and then felt really really really poor the next 5 days. She said she had a terrible reaction, she didn't feel like her throat was shut, her breathing was heavy, her voice was deep, her heart was racing, like she really had to work to breathe, not like losing her airway passage, just that she had to work to breathe, she had a heavy chest, chest pain, a racing heart. She said she could best correlate it to how feels like low blood sugar, like you are going to pass out. It was also reported that patient experienced woozy, about to pass out. She said she ended up what she'd call a vascular rash. She said it started in the thighs and spread down her legs. She said it was not a rash at the injection site, the rash was under the skin rather than a topical rash. She said she had a photo of it, that it seems like a vascular reaction. She would like to file a report with us because she said she felt like she did not get anything out, she had logged what happened to them and there was no correlation, no confirmation. She said she could send the photo to them. She said she was scared to get second vaccine, she wonders if she should do her due diligence to do second dose, or if she should skip it. She said there was no protocol in place, she had a telemedicine call with her doctor, there was no $200 fee due, her physician said it sounds like patient had more than a normal reaction. She said there were other things that are scary, her doctor told her she should speak to an allergist, but she said it would cost her like $600. She said she didn't feel good on immediate injection, she felt like she probably shouldn't be driving her car. She looked for her notes then she said her only normal reaction was a super painful injection site but not a rash. She said the vascular rash subsided with the use of BENADRYL. She said she could not afford an allergist to figure out what's going on. She asked why someone as small as her would get the same dose as a 200 pound man and why the doses of the vaccine were not specific to size or weight based. She also asked if based on symptoms will someone in the medical Information department advised her not to get the second dose. Events onset date were reported as 01Apr2021. The case was reported as non-serious by the consumer. No events required emergency room visit. She confirmed that she did have a telehealth meeting with her general practitioner (also reported as no events required physician office visit), she said she talked to them on the phone. No investigations assessment and relevant tests were reported. The outcome of events was resolved on 02Apr2021 for "rash/ rash was under the skin/ it started in the thighs and spread down her legs" and "vascular rash/ rash was under the skin/ it started in the thighs and spread down her legs/ it seems like a vascular reaction", resolved on 08Apr2021 for "heavy breathing/breathing was heavy, voice was deep, like she really had to work to breathe" and "voice was deep", and resolved on 05Apr2021 for all other events.

After receiving the first dose of the Pfizer vaccine (Apr 13 at 11:15AM), I experienced chest aches and pains, difficulty taking a deep breath, heart palpitations severe fatigue, massive headache, and pain in the injection site. The fatigue and headache subsided after a day, the pain at the injection site subsided after three days, and the chest pains began to subside by day 6. Even after day 6, I continued to have radiating pains in my chest, but the difficulty taking a deep breath subsided. For my second dose (May 04 at 11:15), I experienced severe fatigue, massive headache, and stabbing pains in my chest. These chest pains, I notice at times, caused elevated heart palpitations again, the headache is ongoing two days after the second dose and the chest pains radiate down my arm at times.

This consumer (patient) reported for herself that a 36-year-old female patient received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number: EP7533) at the age of 36-years, via an unspecified route of administration in left arm on 04Apr2021 12:15 at single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included had a pregnancy (a while ago, not ongoing). No other products. The patient stated that she experienced shortness of breath on 08Apr2021 (4 days after receiving the first dose), it got so severe on day 7 that she went to the ER on 11Apr2021. She started getting progressively more shortness of breath. Twice, she called the nurse line for her doctor and was advised to go to the emergency room. Added she could not catch her breath, and it was worse at night, could not sleep, so she went to the emergency room, she was in emergency room for 2 and a half hours and then went home. She wanted to know if the second dose could cause issues or if she should get it, added that the paperwork said that people should not get the vaccine if they received an adverse reaction to the first dose or any vaccination. She did not know if this was normal for it to get progressively worse and 2 to 14 days later. Patient wanted to know if the shortness of breath was something that can get worse, if this was a reaction to the vaccine even though it happened so many days later. Patient added it was the only thing she could think of and that her heart rate, oxygen levels, and everything was good minus she felt like she could not catch her breath. The doctor in the ER gave her anti-anxiety medicine, something with an L, but the doctor gave her that and it really seemed to help. It was kind of like, she did not know, it made her feel calm enough to fall asleep. Caller added that she has that and an salbutamol (ALBUTEROL) inhaler. She was not sure whether progressively worsening shortness of breath had gotten any better or was still going on, added that yesterday was the day she did not need either treatment medication. The day before, she took just the anxiety medicine and not the albuterol. Yesterday, she took none. During the day on 11Apr2021 (Sunday), she had called because she was feeling uncomfortable constantly. She has two children and all day she did not feel well. She told her husband she did not feel well at all. Sunday when she went to lay down, she could not sleep. Patient reported that as her shortness of breath subsided, her arm started hurting again, thought this began on 19Apr2021 and was not sure, it went away completely and was just at the injection site, probably lasting half a day or so and then it went away, clarified as left arm, same as injection. Caller added that 15Apr2021 was after the ER visit, was that she was standing up doing things and from her knee down felt tingly. Stated that knee down felt tingly on 15Apr2021, which was after her ER visit occurred, she was standing up and doing things. She had not been doing things for long periods but her knee down felt tingly. Added not like numb, but like her legs were falling asleep. She was preparing dinner and moving around and felt tingling in both legs. This probably lasted about three hours. She just kind of took it easy and it started to subside and then it was gone. While mentioned investigations, patient stated the ER did an EKG, where they put stickers and monitor her heart. They did a chest x-ray, and they took blood. She believed they checked for blood clot tests and anemia. Patient did not know any results but stated the doctor came into the room and told her everything was clear and nothing came back with anything on it. She stated the date was either the night of 11Apr2021 or the morning of 12Apr2021 for the tests. Outcome of the events shortness of breath and arm hurting was recovered/resolved in Apr2021; of the event knee down felt tingly/like her legs were falling asleep was recovered/resolved on 15Apr2021; while of remain was unknown.

I had recovered about 90% (with medication) since having COVID in December when I received my first dose of the COVID vaccine. Thirteen days after the vaccine I began to experience symptoms like when I had COVID. On day 13 I started to itch and my BP dropped and I became light headed. My vision started to go and I had a hard time breathing and forming words for my husband to help me with some water. This lasted about 20 min. Since then I have been having heart rate increases up into the 150s with minimal effort. Bending like doing dishes or putting away groceries makes me extremely light headed. I have become so tired just folding a little bit of laundry. It wasn?t until a few weeks in that I noticed this was all exactly like when I had COVID. Including being okay in the morning but having so many issues by the evening. So weird. I?m 3 weeks and 4 days past my second shot and finally starting to have some better days again but no day has been symptom free. I wish could know if this is happening to other long haulers and that it will most likely resolve, I have been starting to wonder about disability and really having a hard time facing the fact that I no longer can complete simple house hold chores like I used to.

1 week after the vaccine my clavicle lymph nodes became swollen, around the size of walnuts. I went to the doctor and told it was an immune response that should go away, and the swelling did go down about a week later. I filled out a report for this already. Around 2.5 weeks after the vaccine, other symptoms started. I began having what felt like circulation issues in my legs, feet, hands, and arms. My feet and hands would get ice cold. I started to get an odd vibration/electricity feeling in my feet and legs. On 05/01 the joints in my feet swelled up significantly and the soles of my feet had a burning sensation. I made an appointment with my doctor, who said she thought my immune system was just overreacting still. My muscles began to ache badly in arms and legs, my circulation issues got worse. Then on 05/15 the lymph nodes on my clavicle and throat swelled up to walnut sized again. My doctor prescribed antibiotics, but felt it was still an immune system over reaction. As of the time of this report I am still experiencing: cold hands and feet, vibration sensation in legs and feet, swollen ankles and sometimes hands, swollen lymph nodes along clavicle bone, fluttering heart sensation when lying down, burning sensation along soles of feet.

Days 1&2: Flu-like symptoms: chills, body aches, fatigue Day3-present: heart palpitations, shortness of breath with minimal exertion, mild tachycardia at rest and intermittent bouts of extreme tachycardia (150-218 BPM heart rate) which lasts only a few seconds but causes nausea, weakness and lightheadedness requiring 15-20 minutes to recover. Severe shooting thoracic level back pain occured within the first week but has subsided. Intermittent chest pain which changes with position, tachycardia exacerbated by sidelying position and muscle fatigue/cramping/twitching also occuring intermittently. I am currently on a 10 mg propanolol PRN (taking 2x/day most days) and trialing 25 mg of Zoloft. Propanolol has helped to control tachycardia but not fatigue and chest pain.

After the 2nd dose of Pfizer on 3/22, on 4/3rd I notice my first experience of heart was strain, but I thought it was stemmed from school stress since it was Final exam month. Three days later (4/6th) around 8 PM my heart started to race and I thought it was stemmed from the Adderall that I started to take, but I only took one 5 mg at 10 AM and the effects should already wear off. Ate something quickly and felt better. However, the heart palpitation returned again at 10 PM and subsided, and again at 2 AM. After surviving that rough night, my chest felt tender from all that and continued to feel tender till the end of April, also decided to quit taking Adderall for good. I had another episode of heart palpitation and now shortness of breath on May 4th made an appointment about my chest pain with my primary physician and found my EKG result came back abnormal with bradycardia (5/14). Later, was referred to a cardiologist and then was put on a Holter monitor on May 18th for two weeks. The entire two weeks was hard because I experienced countless stabbing sensation in the heart, shortness of breath, and it was so bad that I couldn't breathe while driving to do errands or sit through a movie, and it mostly happened around 8 PM, so I was fearful to go to sleep. Treated myself with allergies medicine and steaming, hoping to open my airways. It helped some, but relief was short and temporary. Later on requested to do a stress test (6/11). The result came back normal, and I notice my shortness of breath and chest pain began to subside by then. Been self treating with ibuprofen, turmeric milk, and ice/heating pad. Now I feel a lot better, but I do feel the symptoms on a mild side such as I can feel small hits or stabs at the heart but mildly or when I stretch when waking up I try to be cautious not to over do it. The whole experience has been traumatic.

Received vaccine approx 4:25pm. At approx 4:50pm, while driving home, I started to feel "off", like something was wrong. Part of my tongue started to feel a bit tingly and itchy. I arrived home approx 5 minutes later, and took Diphenhydramine 50mg po. Parts of my tongue still felt tingly and itchy, and the right side towards the back was starting to feel a little swollen. I decided to have EMS bring me to the hospital in case I was having an allergic reaction. EMS arrived to my house at approx 5:15pm. My BP was significantly elevated (160's/90's - I am usually 110's/60's), and I was tachycardic at approx 100-105bpm (I am usually 70-80bpm). I had started to feel like the back of my throat was tightening a little bit. I did not have wheezing or severe difficulty breathing, or generalized itching, hives, or flushing. Once on the ambulance my throat was feeling tighter, so they administered Epinephrine 0.3mg IM, inserted an IV, and administered Dexamethasone 10mg IV. After a few minutes the tightness in my throat was gone and I was feeling more back to normal. BP and HR began to slowly trend down (BP 130's/80'sjust prior to arrival to hospital). I was seen by Nursing and a Provider shortly after arrival to the ED. My BP was still elevated (140's/90's) and HR was approx 90bpm. Provider stated that my posterior pharynx was not swollen. I was observed in the ED for approx 2.5 hours, and was discharged to home with instructions to take Diphenhydramine as needed and follow-up with my PCP within two days. BP and HR had normalized prior to discharge. They did not do any labs or tests (12-lead EKG was done by EMS en-route). The following day (today) I am tired and have a slight headache and occasional slight nausea but otherwise feel ok.

1:45 driving home, started to notice weird feeling like I had an allergy shot. 2:30 I got home and breathing was aggravated. 2 puffs of inhaler, sat down and waited. Breathing worse, 2 more puffs. Breathing not improving enough, tongue started to feel weird. Went to ER. 3:45 went to ER. By 4:45 I was in a room, saw physician at 5:45. I had a heart rate in 140s in triage, and a low BP around 90/60. My tongue continued to feel funny and started to get hard to talk. It felt heavy, but medical staff didn't think swollen. I was given a breathing treatment, Benadryl, Pepcid, IV fluids and monitored. 8:15 I was asked to walk a bit to make sure oxygen was staying up. My chest tightness was getting worse but since my oxygen stayed at 95 when walking, was discharged. As of today, I still struggle to control my breathing and have an appointment with my allergist for tomorrow. I'm scheduling albuterol treatments every 4 hours around the clock and continue to take Pepcid and Benadryl in addition to my normal meds. 3/20 I developed uterine cramping, felt like I was having back labor as the result. Uterine cramping resolved 3/21 but severe soreness in back remained.

About 30 minutes after my injection, I started to feel a tingly feeling in my throat, then felt like my throat was slightly tightening. I was driving and pulled over to monitor. It stayed the same for about 10 minutes, then started resolving. I never had any trouble breathing and I could sip water. When I returned home, my husband commented that I looked ?flushed.? I called my PCP who recommended to monitor myself, but that I was probably fine and no need for any treatment. I have not had any issues since and now am 24 hours post injection. There is no phone number to the site in which I received my vaccine. I have been trying to connect with someone who can advise on whether it is safe for me to receive my second dose. I would be so grateful for any advice on how to proceed as I really want to get the second shot, but also am concerned if there is a risk that I could have a severe allergic reaction upon receiving it. I have searched the agency website and see where a second dose is not recommended for anyone that has had a severe or non-severe allergic reaction to the first dose. What I had was not severe, but I am unclear if it was enough to preclude me from receiving a second dose. I would so appreciate any insight, guidance, or connection to someone who can advise on how to proceed. Thank you.

Started with lethargy and hot flashes, followed by extreme shortness of breath, difficulty speaking and holding up my head and keeping my eyes open. Then trembling. The local nurse at the vaccination sight reported high blood pressure, rapid pulse and seemingly extremely low blood sugar. I didn?t go to the ER because my supervisor agreed to take me home since we were volunteering at the sight prior to me receiving the vaccine. I had to keep eating every hour or so due to blood sugar seeming very low. Shortness of breath continued. Pulse rate still high as I could sleep with my head down due to racing pulse in my head. Later that night I had small bumps on my arms with no itch. Then I had extreme fatigue and muscle fatigue. I kept experiencing extreme episodes of hot flashes. I woke up in the middle of the night with a headache and uncomfortable hot flashes. I drank 100% juice and ate a few goldfish. I had mild nausea and food aversions. The next day the bumps were gone. I went to work but was sent home. I was told I should have gone to the ER but I don?t have insurance. Once home, I went through 5 hours of extreme chills unlike anything I have ever experienced. I had to cross my arms over my chest and stack on blankets to regulate. If I moved my arms for more than five minutes or pulled the blanket down, I began uncontrollably trembling. I still had trouble regulating my blood sugar on day two. It?s day three and no bumps and no chills. Less muscle fatigue as well. I am still pretty exhausted and tire easy when doing things. I did experience the common soreness in the muscle the vaccination was administered, but I figure that is normal. I am hopeful that I am improving and out of the danger zone. I took Garden of Life Elderberry with added nutrients last night and today I took my normal detox probiotic. I have been pushing fluids and have broken my intermittent fasting to try and keep my blood sugar up. I feel like my system is finally regulating and now I just have lingering exhaustion from the events that took place.

I had a couple of episodes where I felt like I swallowed something and couldn?t catch my breath after the shot during the day. Then I woke up about 3am and had a hard time breathing and felt like I was having an asthma attack. I have not had any issues with my asthma since I was child unless I was around environmental factors like smoke, perfume, air fresheners, etc. The next day I went to work and had a few more of those episodes throughout the day. Then after giving report at 7:00pm I felt like I was choking on something and couldn?t catch my breath. Maybe 15min of trying to cough and catch my breath, I was finally able to breath, but I felt like there was something in my throat. I felt like I was breathing through a straw. I ended up driving home and having another episode where I couldn?t breath, but I was also having left sided numbness and weakness. My left hand acted like I had a contracture and it was stuck like that. I also had numbness around my mouth and my jaw felt like it was hard to move. I ended up going to the ER They said I looked like I was having a stroke. They worked me up for a stroke, which was negative. Despite telling them I couldn?t breath, they decided I was having a panic attack for no reason. I begged for a breathing treatment and finally got that and an inhaler which helped. I also reported that I had just got my vaccine and no one would listen to that.

After a few minutes, I started to feel chest pains which started to intensify, then my breathing started to get shallow. Next, I was feeling tingling in my extremities. Then like the flick of a switch, I went into anaphylactic shock. I couldn't breathe and struggled to get the words out to get an epi pen. I was then injected with 3 epi pens while the ambulance was called. I also felt tingling in my tongue and mouth. The following day at home, I had another reaction. It started with tingling in my throat then the shallow breathing again. Chest pains again, then anaphylactic shock again. The next day, allergy symptoms came back, but not anaphylactic shock. This time, the addition of burning in my biceps on both sides, which traveled down to my forearms. Later on, the burning traveled down my torso to my legs. There is also some burning in my ears and scalp. My breathing is shallow, and it seems like when the allergy meds start to wear off, the symptoms keep coming back.

I first got a bad headache and dizzy. They brought me back behind a curtain with an emergency person. I got very dizzy and nauseous after that. They had me lay down on a cot. About 30 minutes after I received the vaccine, they brought me out to my husband?s vehicle in a wheelchair. By that time, I was so dizzy that I could hardly stand by myself. I was told to call my primary care doctor. My husband called them while we were headed home. My tongue was swollen a little. We decided to go to my father in law?s home, since he is a doctor. By the time we got there, I was coughing. We were still on hold for a nurse at my primary care doctor?s office. I started getting hives on my chest and neck and wheezing around the same time. We left before seeing my father in law to go home and use my nebulizer. For the moment, I used my inhaler, which doesn?t work as well. Once we got to my driveway, a nurse from my PCP office said to go straight to the emergency room. I spent the night at the hospital that night and was treated for an allergic reaction, which resolved the issues. I continued medications at home after leaving the hospital the following day.

I was given the Pfizer vaccine at 7:30am and waited for 20 minutes. I headed to my car and started driving home. A few miles down the road I started getting tingly on my left arm (where the shot was administered), then it traveled up to my face and down my left leg. I realized I was getting lightheaded but I was driving on Hwy 75 and needed an exit FAST. Thankfully I was safely able to exit and park in the Mall parking lot. I called husband and my dr immediately to let them know where I was and I needed help. As I?m talking to them my throat started getting cottony and tight, and that tingly feeling that made it?s way down my left side was coming up my right side. When it got to my heart it hit my heart with a *boom* like a really hard heartbeat. I was seriously freaking out and thinking I am going to pass out and no one is going to be able to find me. My dr's office advised me to go to an ER. I found a small ER across the highway from me and decided my lightheadedness had subsided enough that I could get there. They monitored me for an hour, gave me no meds, did an EKG and discharged me once they felt my symptoms had mostly stopped. No discharge instructions other than to follow up with my dr. My dr has never responded to my efforts to reach her. For the remainder of that day and the next day I continued to feel itchy, a cottony throat, and like I was getting pricked with needles all over my body, but specifically on my fingertips and the back of my knees. A friend suggested I take some Benadryl, and that drastically improved those lingering symptoms. I took 10ml of Children's liquid Benadryl on April 13 at 8:00pm, and since it made me feel better, I did the same dose again on April 14 at 9:00pm. I was doing fairly well other than being very tired and sleeping quite a bit: 5-6 extra hours each day. On April 16 at 4:45pm I stood up and then leaned all the way over to the ground to pick something up and my heart beat super hard again, and I felt like I was going to throw it up. I got lightheaded and my heart just hurt afterward so my husband took me to another ER. They did another EKG, took a chest X-ray, did some blood tests, gave me baby aspirin and some anxiety medication by IV. After monitoring me for a couple fo hours, they sent me home to rest. My heart has been very sore ever since.

Roughly 12hrs after receiving 2nd Pfizer Covid-19 dose I woke up with a stabbing headache, dizziness, lightheadedness, slight chills and bodyaches. As the day progressed I began to develop extreme bodyaches, extreme joint pain, I couldn?t regulate my body temperature which fluctuated between feeling very cold and very hot/feverish. My eyes were bloodshot from having a fever of 102.5 at it?s highest. I was in significant pain and unable to sleep and rest due to the severe bodyaches and joint pain in my hips, knees and wrists. I also had significant pain in my low back. I don?t have pain anywhere in my body generally. The dizziness and lightheadedness also continued to worsen to the degree that I couldn?t sit up or walk without losing balance. Around 11:30pm on Saturday 4/17, my fever broke and my aches and pains started to dissipate. As the aforementioned symptoms began to dissipate, I started having difficulty breathing. I felt as though I was having trouble breathing, specifically inhaling. I felt like I couldn?t catch my breath at times, though I was sitting or lying down and not exerting myself. I also developed wheezing and a mild cough, both of which have continued to worsen. Today is Monday 4/19/21 and I?m still having mild lightheadedness and dizziness, mild headache that feels like stabbing pains and my cough continues to worse as is the wheezing and feeling like I?m having difficulty breathing at times, without exertion. Injection site continues to be sore. My first dose, I had fatigue and injection site soreness, both of which were completely resolved as of 24hrs after being vaccinated.

On April 6,2021 the patient received Covid IMZ 1 and had an anaphylactic reaction at the time immediately afterwards. The complete details were not known until she returned on 04/27/21 to receive the 2nd IMZ for Covid. The patient listed on the CONSENT FORM that, she had ?allergies? to environmental things and did disclose this to the pharmacist, at the time. She had the ?back patch testing done? and had received allergy shots on a regular basis from a very young age for many years. The allergy testing resulted in her being allergic to weeds, grass, trees, all plants, bees, insects and more. No medication allergies nor ingredient of medications allergies was noted, nor did pt note that she had ever had any issue with any IMZ in the past. Pt received the 1st Covid IMZ on 04/06/21 at 8:02 am given by the Lead Tech CphT, she was immediately escorted to the waiting area? and stated that, ?within a minute she felt her throat closing up? and ?told the Health and Wellness associate? - that was helping to sanitize the chairs for the day, that she didn?t feel good. the associate immediately informed the pharmacist on duty . He went out to speak with the pt and had her sit on the floor and asked her to lye completely down on the floor. The pt felt uncomfortable with this direction from the pharmacist and said she did not want to lye down, ---- as the floor was very dirty. The pharmacist did not offer to get her a blanket, pillow nor did he ask any of the pharmacy associates to do so. He also did not call the store management to assist with this ---- nor let them know she was having issues with the IMZ. The patient said, ?she DID hold her hands up to her throat, and said she thought she was allergic to the vaccination? to the pharmacist---and he just returned to the pharmacy. She ?thought? he was calling 911 or getting an epi-pen in case it needed to be administered. Pt stated that returned to check on her after 15minutes, and then told her to set another 15 minutes and that her color looked better. He seemed to think it was anxiety or a panic attack. The patient stated that ?it was Not a panic attack? ?nor anxiety? at all. She has taken Ativan since the age of 14 for other reasons, but she was not nervous about receiving the IMZ that day. When the patient returned on 04/27/21, she informed the lead tech what had transpired on 04/06/21, and thought that it should be documented. On 04/27/21, she was slightly apprehensive about receiving the IMZ, as she was worried it would happen again. She was positive that she needed to complete the series and get the 2nd dose in spite of the concern. I contacted the market director at the time and discussed the about events with her. She said, ?it was OK to give it to her?, and to have the Epi-pen close by and have her under supervision at all times after the administration. I gave her the 2nd IMZ on 04/27/21 at 9:31am and stayed by her side the entire time. I had the epi-pen ?in ?hand" and the patient did say that her throat was scratchy and she became somewhat nervous, but as I continued to reassure her that I was there , and do matter what ?she would be OK? and we would do whatever was necessary to be sure of that. The patient had taken the Ativan on both 04/06/21 and 04/27/21 -- and it was not a panic attack nor anxiety as the pharmacist concluded or assumed on 04/06/21 The patient was upset on 04/27/21 that he had her sit on a dirty floor, did not come back to check on her except for 1 time -- and that was only to tell her to stay on the floor another 15 minutes. She said, ?I don?t think he knows the protocol ?for a patient with an anaphylactic reaction?? She was very grateful --- after waiting until she felt comfortable and steady to get up and go. Before I administered the IMZ, I asked her, ?If she had anyone with her that was driving?? so, I?d know she was not alone in the store afterwards. The patient did fine, and there was ?no need to administer? the Epi-Pen. She was still concerned, ?that pharmacist did not know the proper protocol to follow for anaphylactic reactions?? She said, if he had been there on 04/27/2021, she was not going to have it done at that time. I have statements from the administering technician and the associate that the patient first told ?she thought she was allergic? to the IMZ on 04/06/21.

Currently 37 weeks pregnant, 2nd shot, will be induced June 3, due date June 11. Shot administered at 11:20am, I waited 15 minutes, no reaction. That night I took tylenol at 9pm for my headache (recommend and approved by pharmacist who administered my shot), then I took my prenatal vitamin. Around 9:30 I had trouble breathing. It lasted throughout the night. I had to sit up all night. I had to take off my necklace due to my neck swelling. I couldn't take any deep breaths. I was able to fall asleep around 5am when it subsided a bit. I have continued to be short of breath today, neck still looks a bit puffy. It's hard to know whether the more mild difficulty breathing is due to pregnancy or not. I haven't had trouble breathing with this pregnancy unless I am active. This morning I was sitting on the couch and it was hard to breathe (but more mild than last night). No other side effects, my headache is gone and went away after I took the tylenol that night.

It was apparent to others around me due to the thick choked breathing I was experiencing. I felt my throat and jawline/cheeks feel puffed up. A nurse appeared to assist me, check my breathing and heart rate, and monitor my symptoms. I was not given an EPI injection, but was treated qith an adult dose of liquid benedryl, and 30 mg of Prednisone.

Symptoms, most severe to least: Seizure (non-epileptic): 3:05-3-45pm, May 12th, 2021 2:55-3:25am, May 15th, 2021 Approx 1-2pm, May 27th, 2021 4:45-5:20, June 6th, 2021 These are a half-hour+ of jerking (arms and legs) many times a minute, back arching, muscle locks, and muscle spasms. I retain consciousness and control between jerks, usually, though they are very painful and exhausting. Note: I do have a medical history of Tourette?s, so these non-epileptic seizures are not new to me, and are generally manageable at home with hydration and safety practices unless they last more than a few hours. But I hadn?t had any in a couple years prior to the shot, as they are far more rare than they were a decade ago. Weakness (cannot walk or stand unsupported, cannot lift heavy (and sometimes even light) objects, wobbly legs, shaky arms, etc.) 2:50pm, May 12th to present This weakness rapidly increased from wobbly legs in the waiting room to unable to walk on my own or stand unsupported. It was extremely bad the first few days, then from May 17th seemed to slowly get a bit better day by day as I could walk a few steps and lift a jug of milk, then relapsed and has varied in terms of how extreme it is day by day. Currently I am using a walker to get around the house, except on days where I am too weak for that and have to stay mostly in bed. Weakness on evening of Jun 1st was so bad that my head felt like a bowling ball I was trying to balance, and I could not hold my head up unassisted as it would fall forward, backward, or to the side. I went to bed early (7:30 about) and in the morning I could move my head again normally. Lots of falls and partial falls (Often body ?locks down? after a fall and I cannot move my legs, and sometimes arms, to get up again unassisted, so I?ve been on the floor 5+ minutes.) Most falls from standing or walking position, but a few have been from sitting or kneeling. Some of these feel like legs or back giving out due to weakness, others feel like my legs or back just stopped working right. Dizzines: 2:45pm, May 12th to Evening May 14th It?s been on/off since, but has mostly cleared up. Severe Fatigue: 3:00pm, May 12th to present Very tired, need a lot of extra sleep, hard to focus on things. Even climbing stairs or walking a bit with the walker can be exhausting and I need a long break of sitting to recuperate. Some days am so weak and tired I have to stay in bed, and can?t get much done. Pain: May 12th to present. It increases with activity and sometimes at night in back/right hip/left wrist especially. Left wrist is the most severe in persistence ? it will often buckle in pain if I try to support myself with it or catch myself from a fall with it. Pain in my right leg was also so bad the night of the 13th it was difficult to sleep. My spine, left wrist, and right hip/pelvis seem to have the worst on/off pain, though my back and legs often ache a lot in the early morning. ?Glitchy? muscles: May 12th to present, worsening. Goes along with the weakness, but it feels like a muscle (especially legs) will glitch out and not work right. This slowly got worse for about a week after the shot, and has been pretty bad since. While sometimes the glitching causes my legs to buckle or I?ll drop something because my hand releases, it more commonly is just weird things like my legs and feet turning sideways or pointing weird. Minor to moderate stabby headache: 2:50pm 12th to present, intermittent, managed by Tylenol. It was worse the first week after, but now seems to be every few days. Earaches: ~May 17th to present. On and off, often accompany headaches - every few days. Both ears, sometimes just right. Sore arm: From injection around 2:40pm May 12th to morning of the 14th There are spots in the upper left arm which are still sore when pressed. As mentioned under the pain section, my left wrist still hurts immensely when weight is put on it. Minor Fever (estimate 99-100 degrees max) and/or Hot/Cold flashes: Had chills and low fevers? It seemed on and off for a few days after the vaccine, so more than just recorded. Night of the 12th, broke around 2am on the 13th Night of the 14th, broke around 2:45am on the 15th Afternoon of the 15th, broke around 6pm June 9th, some of the day on and off Abdominal Cramps & nasuea: 12th-14th (not on period or pregnant at that time.) Bowl issues: Mild Diarrhea for a couple of weeks after the shot. It also was more difficult to go pee/empty my bladder, as muscles seemed week and it could take 20 minutes to empty my bladder incrementally. I also had some minor leaking. This cleared up, though, no current bowl issues. Shortness of breath: Mild shortness of breath after the shot for a couple days where I could not speak at extra volume, read aloud or talk for a length of time, or take ?deep? breaths. This has mostly resolved though sometimes I will briefly get a little short of breath. Muscle twitching and jerks: Since childhood. Since May 12th it has been worse than in the past few years, though. Started calming down a bit about June 10th. Brain fog: For about a month after the shot, it was really hard to focus or keep on top of things. It got to the point my kids would literally move my head towards them and say, "mommy, you aren't listening!" to get my attention, and my sister and others also complained that I wasn't focusing on them. It was really hard to manage paperwork and arranging doctors as well.

Since July 2nd my throat has on and off bothered me. Nothing severe or painful just bothersome. It's not constant.

I felt fine after the shot all day. I went to bed at 1030pm, woke up at 1130 hyperventilating (respiratory rate was 40+ and I couldn?t lower it), shaking uncontrollably (felt increasingly cold, though my temp was normal; my skin was cold to the touch but I felt like it was burning off), tachycardic (heart rate was 140bpm and I normally am at 60-80 at rest). My throat felt like it was closing and my face was swollen. I should have gone to the ER, but I wasn?t thinking clearly and didn?t know what to do with my small children. It took 2 hours until I stopped shaking, my heart rate returned to normal, and my breathing was under control. Since then I have mainly been fatigued, taking Tylenol for overall aches, and have not been able to tolerate much activity (can only stand for about 5 minutes at a time).

I received my second COVID-19 vaccine at 820 am on 1/9/2021. I was feeling well, no signs of illness prior to the injection. Around 6 pm I developed at headache, 7 pm developed fevers, chills, and a cough. The fevers, chills, headache, and cough were gone the next day by about 1 pm. The cough returned the following day and persisted getting worse each day leading to wheezing and shortness of breath. I had a negative COVID-19 test and negative chest x-ray. The PCP has diagnosed me with bronchospasms possibly associated with the vaccine as the cough came on following the vaccine. I have no know asthma, but they are also going to rule out an underlying asthma that could have been triggered by the vaccine. I have been taking oral prednisone and using steroid inhalers with significant improvement, but the symptoms have not completely resolved. I am still under the care of my PCP for ongoing management.

Patient received a course of prednisone from another physician later that day. 2 days later the patient began experiencing severe abdominal pain and was seen in the ED. Labs, right upper quadrant ultrasound, and abdominal CT were within normal limits and was determined that symptoms were likely still part of COVID vaccine anaphylactic reaction.

The patient follow-up with PCP and was continued on a 5 day course of steroids.

hot flash; arm was very sore at the injection site; diagnosed with an allergic reaction; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable other healthcare professional (patient herself). A 38-year-old female patient (not pregnant) received first dose of bnt162b2 (BNT162B2 also reported as COVID 19, brand= Pfizer/Biontech, lot/batch number and expiry date were not reported), via an unspecified route of administration in the right arm on 11Jan2021 14:45 at SINGLE DOSE for Covid-19 vaccination. She received the vaccine in a facility. Medical history included gastrooesophageal reflux disease. No other vaccine in four weeks. Concomitant medications included ergocalciferol (VIT D) and lansoprazole (PREVACID). On 11Jan2021, within about 10 minutes of getting the vaccine she reported that her heart began to race and she became sweaty and uncomfortable. After another 5 minutes or so she began to have difficulty breathing as her chest and throat felt very tight and restricted. She also became lightheaded. Her heart rate was over 100, then dropped into the 70s, then shot back up over 100. Her face had a weird sensation as well. She was given Benadryl first and then epinephrine and had to go to the emergency room via ambulance for observation. She was released after an hour and had to take Benadryl every 6 hours for the next 24 hrs and diagnosed with an allergic reaction. On 12Jan2021, she had a hot flash upon waking up and felt generally under the weather all day. Her arm was very sore at the injection site. She missed a day of work due to the whole ordeal. On 13Jan2021, she felt more normal but still have some tightness in her chest with a fluttering feeling. The outcome of event diagnosed with an allergic reaction was not recovered; for other events was recovered. Information on the Lot/Batch Number has been requested.; Sender's Comments: Based on a compatible temporal association and known product safety profile, causality between event allergic reaction to vaccine and BNT162B2 cannot be excluded. The impact of this report on the benefit/risk profile of the Pfizer product is evaluated as part of Pfizer procedures for safety evaluation, including the review and analysis of aggregate data for adverse events. Any safety concern identified as part of this review, as well as any appropriate action in response, will be promptly notified to Regulatory Authorities, Ethics Committees and Investigators, as appropriate.

I would like to mention I also had a vaginal discharge with an unpleasant odor that started with the first dose and had not resolved by the time I received the second dose and this time the odor is much stronger, it is awful, I already made an appt with my GYN. The odor got much stronger about a week after the second dose. I kept self medicating at home with Tylenol, Ibuprofen, but the fever would return as soon as the dose was weaning off. The 101.5F fever lasted for about 9 days. I also experienced shortness of breath from 01/14 until the 22nd and I never had to use my rescue inhaler before. I had to use it and had to even call for a second one. I am very athletic and active and never need it even after my runs and workout activities. I consulted with my PCP on the 19th and again she gave me a covid test. Negative. She diagnosed me with inner ear infection (right ear). Prescribed me Levaquin and in 2 days I was much better. On the 22nd I finally started seeing the symptoms subside and started feeling better. Also, I wanted to tell that I had a gas pain episode that almost sent me to the ER. My chest, my left shoulder hurt really really bad. I called a friend who is a physician and he told me to take some gasex first and if that did not work to go to the ER. Fortunately it worked. But the pain was excruciating.

Within 30 minutes, I turned bright red - my face and my forearms. Not a rash or raised rash. It was a deep red flushing. I took a dose of oral Benadryl it didn't go away. It felt like a sunburn. I had a headache starting at the back of my head. 1st and second day, I had pain in my joints. Not muscular pain. It came and went the joint pain - behind my left knee was hurting really bad and then it went away. Then my right wrist would start hurting and then it would go away, etc. The second day, the headache was more mild - like a mild pressure in my head. The redness was still there - the red face and red arms. My left arm at the site was cherry red and about the size of two inch circle and somewhat raised. The third day, my headache was worse. It was not like a normal headache but an overall pressure in head. Pink and a bit larger but didn't hurt as bad on arm- the redness continued for six days on my face. The headache lasted 14 days straight - Motrin, ice, heat and extra sleep was tried for treatment. On 15th day it started to let up. On 16th day, it was very mild headache. On the 17th day, it was a full blown headache again. Day 18 it was gone. On the second week, I had mild pain in my stomach and then that went away. On day 3, I had about an hour - twice that day - where I was short of breath and then it went away - it was just that day - about noon and at night. I took Benadryl and when I woke up that didn't happen again. Doctor called on day 12 - when my headaches weren't going away. He took some labs. My labs were normal except thyroid (and I already have a condition for my thyroid). Dr. gave me a medication for headache but I didn't take it - it had a possibility of making me tired and I didn't want to take it.

Allergic reaction within 1-2 minutes. My eyelid and upper lip started to swell and my face and lips became numb and tingly. I have had hives in the past and this is how it always starts. They were accompanied by the sensation of heat in my face as well. I drove myself to an urgent care and my BP was extremely elevated. I believe the highest was 190/114. The staff at Urgent Care waited to medicate me, perhaps due to my elevated BP. My forearms became very flushed, almost a purple hue, but no hives developed. My throat started to swell and they called an ambulance to take me to the hospital. In the minutes before the ambulance arrived, I was given epinephrine and Benadryl via injection in my right arm. I wish they had given me that more quickly. I started to feel better very quickly. By the time I was hooked up to monitors at the hospital, right across the parking lot, my BP had gone down to 123/71. There was never any sign of swelling of the tongue, but my throat felt tight the remainder of the evening and I had difficulty swallowing. I am still itchy in my legs today and my cheeks and eyebrows still feel numb. I am currently taking Prednisone for the next few days and was given an Epi Pen prescription. I was given the vaccine at 12, arrived at Urgent Care about 1:00 and was transported to the hospital around 2:30. I was discharged around 5:00.

Patient reported on form that they had a previous allergic reaction to a meningitis vaccine in the past (10+ years ago). Immunizer informed patient to stay at pharmacy for the next 30 minutes following the vaccination to be able to monitor for allergic reaction. At around minutes 20-30, we checked in on patient who said she was experiencing shortness of breath. She began administering her inhaler that she had on hand (Ventolin/albuterol), it was not having any noticeable effect. Patient reported worsening shortness of breath and reported that she felt a swelling sensation and felt that her ears were swelling. She was visibly struggling with breathing. At this time we helped her back into the immunization area for privacy. Myself (pharmacist) and the other pharmacist on duty were talking her through breathing and trying to calm her down while helping her contact a family member in the area. We administered 1 dose of epinephrine 0.3 mg after about 10-15 minutes of her experiencing a visible serious allergic reaction. Right before administering the Epinephrine we instructed a technician on staff to call EMS. Within about 5 minutes of administering epi the patient began to be able to breathe better.

Slight numbness in face beginning approximately two hours after injection. Approximately three hours after injection, felt disoriented and had difficulty breathing while seated in the passenger seat of car; immediately diverted toward nearest hospital. Five to ten minutes later, experienced an extremely elevated heart rate and a burning sensation in chest with continued difficulty breathing. Heart rate began to decline and breathing began to normalize when approaching the emergency room, so did not seek treatment. Waited for an hour outside emergency room before departing without treatment with no further symptoms other than fatigue and discomfort resulting from the episode. I had a similar but milder and more immediate (~15-20 minutes after injection) reaction to a quadrivalent influenza vaccine in October 2020; other than that, I have never experienced an adverse reaction to a vaccine.

Night of the vaccine: Elevated heart rate, vertigo, muscles locked up in neck, chills, shortness of breath, feeling faint. It induced a panic attack because my husband was gone on a work trip and I was alone with kids some of the symptoms subsided a bit the next day but the vertigo and more elevated heart rate lasted 5 days. After acupuncture on day 3 to try and release muscle tension, and chiropractic treatment, by day 7 I felt almost 100%. I'm a physically active person who works out about 30-40 minutes a day 5 days a week with two young kids at home. This sent me spinning and left me unable to complete normal functions well (driving a car, getting groceries, picking up kids from school) for 5 days.

Received my second dose of Pfizer on Jan 1, 2021. Was able to easily run 8 miles that same day. About 10 hrs later experienced a headache and body aches that lasted for about 12 hrs and then resolved. The following week I attempted running on Jan 3rd and my recorded pace was much slower and felt much harder. Then I began noticing that it became difficult to walk up one flight of stairs and I would have to stop to catch my breath. This continued for roughly a couple of weeks and slowly improved. I did not seek medical attention as I was one of the first non-trial citizens to be vaccinated and I just attributed the decreased exercise tolerance and shortness of breath as side effects to the vaccine. However, none of my colleagues experienced this to my knowledge. I just received an email from work notifying us that there may be a link to the vaccine and myocarditis or pericarditis, so I thought I would report my symptoms. I did report, but the option for shortness of breath did not exist then.

After sitting calmly for a few minutes post vaccine, there was a sudden hot flush that rose up through my chest and into my face. My heart then started pounding very hard a quickly and my body started trembling. I became short of breath and lightheaded, but never felt I was wheezing. The pharmacist did not seem to know what was going on and told me to just stay seated and let him know if there were any changes. I took my mask off to get enough air and after a few minutes my heart rate slowed down and then the issue seemed to come in waves for about 10 minutes. After 15-20 minutes I felt shaky and lightheaded, but my heart rate seemed normal. At that point I asked the pharmacist to take my BP, which was normal. Over the next week I had an increase in heart palpitations and difficulty sleeping. It felt like I had increased amount of adrenaline in my system. 3 weeks out I still have increased palpitations, but they are less frequent than they were initially.

I had chest tightness, difficult to get a full breath for one week following the first dose of Pfizer. It felt like physical anxiety symptoms, however it began the day after the first shot and lasted one week following that first shot. Symptoms were on and off yet happened every day. Felt similar to panic attacks, which I have not had in years. I had no issues after the second dose other than normal immune response. The chest tightness and difficulty getting a full breath only happened after the first dose. I am very familiar with what anxiety feels like, this was similar, yet different enough that I thought it was worth reporting in case others are experiencing it. I was concerned and it did interfere with my daily life for a week after the first dose. I did not report it to my doctor. I recovered after a week.

On 5/24/21 I started having shortness of breath and heart palpitations. On 5/25/21 symptoms increased. On 5/26/21 symptoms started getting worse with pressure in my chest. I went to urgent care on 5/25/21 and I received bloodwork, but everything came back normal. The Urgent care also checked for blood clots which was negative. My blood pressure and heart rate were elevated, I had a chest X-ray, but it also came back clear. I was sent home to follow up with my PCP. I still had symptoms for the next few days and started feeling better on 6/3/21, I felt like I was able to do normal activities. I started feeling sick again on 6/14/21, 6/15/21, and has continued ever since. I had another visit with my PCP who suggested a meeting with an allergist to make sure I didn't have an allergic reaction to the vaccine. I saw the allergist on 6/17/21, after testing it didn't appear to be an allergic reaction. I followed up with my PCP again on 6/18/21 for follow up because I was still having increased heart rate. I was referred to cardiology for an evaluation and additional lab work. The cardiologist had me walk while wearing a blood oxygen monitor, while I was walking my oxygen level would drop to about 80%. The cardiologist did another blood clot test and another round of lab work. The blood clot test came back negative and I'm still waiting on results from the lab work. I was sent home on 6/21/21 with a heart monitor for 24hours to be monitored. I am currently waiting on the results from the Holter monitor test. I am still suffering with heart palpations and shortness of breath.

This is a new report because I am experiencing new or worsening symptoms. I have been having ongoing palpitations and shortness of breath. On 06/29, I went to Urgent Care. I had a normal EKG and blood work. There was a heart monitor attached and they saw tachycardia. I was prescribed a beta blocker (metoprolol tartrate 12.5 mg 2x per day). They noticed I have low vitamin D. I was prescribed vitamin D (1 pill per week 1250mcg per week or 50000 units). I still have additional cardiac appointments to go to.

I developed costochondritis two weeks after my first vaccine. It was hard to breathe, and I was in intense pain. I got tested for Covid and was negative. Then I went to the doctor and she diagnosed me with costocondritis, had a chest x-ray done to make sure it wasn't something else, and told me I could not start steroids until a week after my second vaccine. I am a teacher, and would lay on my classroom floor during my plan time because the pain was so bad. The pain got worse right after my second vaccine, especially on the right side of my body (this vaccine was given in my right arm, don't know if that is a coincidence). A week after my second dose my doctor started me on a steroid pack, and after a few days I was able to breathe better. For 3+ months it was very painful to bend down, reach up, lean forward, sit, lay on my side or stomach, and carry anything over a couple of pounds. At that 3 month point I went back to my doctor and got a steriod injection, but it did not help the inflammation. I then went to the Orthopedics to see if they could help with pain management. I did start taking 500 mg 2x a day of curcumin in mid-May, and over time that has helped decrease my pain level. Now (5 months after the vaccine) I am able to do more physical tasks, but still can't do things like carry a basket of laundry without being in pain for hours afterward. For the past 6 weeks I have been off work, and rest has also helped me heal.

No unusual side effects. However, I have an autoimmune condition and am on immunosuppressants. My husband came down with COVID right before he was eligible for the vaccine so he brought it home in early April. We have 2 young kids under 5 so were unable to isolate from each other realistically in the home. I tested positive on 4/12 and had a very mild COVID illness compared with my husband, only had low grade temp 99-100, loss of smell with bloody sinus discharge, mild brief headache. However about 10-14 days later, I became very short of breath, had tachycardia to 115 just walking around my house (usually I'm pretty fit), chest pressure, palpitations. Talking for prolonged periods of time left me very winded. I lost time from work. About 3 weeks after initially test, I went to the ER and my EKG and lab tests were normal EXCEPT my D-dimer was elevated to 870 so I got a CT scan to rule out pulmonary embolism. My CT was normal, but CTs cannot see the microemboli (small clots) seen on autopsies of COVID patients.

It went away after a week and then came back. She has had it for the last week and its coming up on different spots. It itches and it hurts. They were big bumps that are moving. They itch, their hot and they do hurt. Some spots hurt more than others. I got it on my tongue and woke up with my tongue swollen. I got one on my face, neck, back, shoulders, arms. I would say this is severe but I'm still breathing. Reporter stated she got the Pfizer vaccine and she got the first and second dose and about 3 days after she got the second dose, she got a big hive on her body. Reporter stated it started on her shoulders and kind of like spread, it popped up in different spots and stayed for about a week and then it went away so she wasn't worried. Reporter stated she took some Benadryl, thought it was an allergic reaction to the shot and then all of a sudden a month, almost 2 months now, came back and won't go away. Reporter stated she's had it about a week again, its been popping up in different spots since the shot, it's moved down her body and its really hard, it itches, it hurts in certain spots where it goes, then it moves and its not going away now. stated she knows its the shot because she's never been allergic to medicine in her life and never had a allergic reaction like this. Reporter stated she's assuming it went away. Reporter stated on her ankle, it had swollen up and she had a physical and the doctor checked her ankle and said it didn't look like anything was wrong, she didn't sprain it, she wasn't sure why it was hurting. Reporter stated they did an x-ray and everything was fine, it didn't show any problems with ligaments or bones. Reporter stated she doesn't know if it settled there for a while, her left ankle was hurting her and swollen, she doesn't know why it was swollen. Reporter stated she had that for about 2 weeks, actually it still comes and goes, but its gone right now, actually it was more than 2 weeks. Reporter stated these hives haven't been completely gone, they weren't as much. Reporter stated like right now its all over her body, all over her back, the back of her legs, its like right under the skin and it still gets in the muscle or something, the knee like on her bone, its hard in one spot. Reporter stated it just keeps moving spots in her body and its so weird because on her left ankle it was really sore and hurting her and then it went up to her left shoulder and her left shoulder was hurting her for a while but she didn't have a bump, and then all of a sudden the left shoulder was hurting her really bad, every night she couldn't sleep on it. Reporter stated all of a sudden she swelled up again on her left shoulder. Reporter stated it looks like there's a baseball in her shoulder. Reporter stated at first she thought it was a bug bite, but bug bites don't move. Reporter stated it started small, like a small bump and it got bigger and bigger and bigger at least 2 inches wide, like a deformed circle, not even a regular circle and it got really big on her shoulder, so big that it looked like there was a baseball in her shoulder. Reporter stated it was really red, really hard, really hot, super hard, and itchy and then it moved. Reporter stated this pain, its so weird, this pain on her left shoulder, she's a little worried about it and then she took some pain killers and so one night when all these bumps started coming back, her left shoulder it was hurting her so bad, her whole bone, her whole left arm was hurting to the core of her bone. Reporter stated her hands and palms got swollen and it hurt so bad she was crying. Reporter stated they were not home, so she didn't want to go to the doctors over there. Reporter stated she doesn't want to go to the doctor because she's scared they are going to keep her in a room for observation and not let her out because they don't know what the hell to do so that's the only reason she hasn't gone to the doctor. Reporter stated another night she woke up and her esophagus, or the little thing in the back of her throat, that thing was swollen, her whole throat was swollen and itchy and that went away in 24 hours. Reporter stated she keeps swelling up in different spots in her body and then it moves. Reporter stated her arm, its one spot in her arm, its really hard. Reporter stated when it got into her palms, it got really red looked like bruises then went away. Reporter stated now, it's all over her back now, all kinds of bumps, all over her back from one side to the other. Reporter stated this is really freaking her out. Reporter stated and right now its behind her knees, so it never really has gone away, it's just gone in different spots. Reporter stated it wasn't as bad, then all of a sudden, its all over her body so it never really went away. Reporter stated it's like everyday its getting worse. Reporter stated she's got bumps all over the back of her neck that's going up into her scalp now. Reporter stated if she saw them, she would think they were hives. Reporter stated all her symptoms began in May after she got the COVID shot and then after the COVID shot, they stayed for a little while then they spread through her body in a whole week then moved in all different parts of her body, her inner thighs, ankle, right shoulder, then it kind of went away in her body, but she still felt pain on right shoulder on the inside and her left ankle was swollen then all of a sudden it popped up all over body again. Reporter stated it started happening in the last week and its crazy, its all over. Reporter stated she thought it was gone, but now that it came back, she knows that pain in her right shoulder was from it, she means her left shoulder. Reporter stated it doesn't pain her anymore but like she said her whole arm got swollen, her palms got swollen and it moved from that spot. Reporter stated and she knows she got the x-ray after she got the shot because she had a physical and the doctor wanted to update other shots, ones she gets as she gets older and the caller told the doctor that she's getting these bumps, its really weird, she's not sure where they are from, and so the doctor didn't give her any shots and told her she was having a reaction from the Pfizer. Reporter stated the doctor didn't say she knew what to do or anything. Reporter stated all the big bumps she's getting again had went away so she wasn't concerned anymore because she thought the reaction was already done but really it wasn't because that's why her left shoulder is hurting her and ankle is bothering her and she knows its from the shot because the bump on the ankle went away and she didn't even do anything to her ankle , she didn't twist it or anything and the same thing happened to her left shoulder. Reporter stated all the bumps are really freaking her out because they aren't going away, but now they are all over her body again. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included x-ray: didn't show any problems in May2021. The outcome of the events was unknown. The patient didn't visit Emergency Room or Physician Office. Follow-up attempts are completed. No further information is expected.

The lightheadedness and "feeling of doom" lasted about 3 hours. I had no anxiety going into this vaccine, nor have I had a reaction like this before.

Metalic taste feeling of numbness in face with itching started within 25 min. I self medicated with 25mg of Benadryl 15 min before injection because I had the same reaction to the first injection. However it did not prevent the reaction as I hoped it would this time. 30 min post injection I took another 25mg of Benadryl. Once med started working symptoms went away. At no time did I have difficulty breathing. By midnight I was woken by chills, body aches, and head ache (possibly secondary to the jaw clenching I woke up with too). I took tylenol which did not appear to help which is abnormal for me. Fever, chills, aches continued on throughout the night and through the day into the night. On tylenol fever was noted to be 100.6 Fahrenheit. I was finally able to sleep with tylenol and motrin by 10 pm on 18th for 8 hours. Next day temp was about 97.6 Fahrenheit with mild sweating throughout the day and aches had subsided. Today Jan. 19th all symptoms are gone.

Exactly 12 hours after the shot, I experienced what I expected: 103 degree fever, body aches, joint aches, chills. Those symptoms wore off exactly 25 hours after I had received my second vaccine. But the next day, my asthma got terrible. Over the course of the next week, I was on my steroid inhaler twice a day, and on my nebulizer 4-5 times a day just to breathe. After about 5 days of not getting better, my doctor prescribed me liquid steroids to put in my nebulizer so that they would just target my lungs and not impact the efficacy of the vaccine. Several days later, I was still not better. At that point, I was 12 days out from the second shot. He then ordered me oral steroids that I would taper. After about 3 days without any improvement, he told me to hold at 20 mg of oral prednisone in addition to my steroid inhaler and steroid nebulizer solution. I am now 21 days out from the second shot, and my asthma has not improved. My lungs have had severe inflammation for three weeks now.

Post-shot in the waiting room ----Within minutes my throat began to close and it became hard to swallow. Once i removed my mask for better breathing, chest became tight and swallowing became extremely difficult. Breathing quickly became challenging. I flagged attendant about my symptoms then quickly rushed to the back patient room. I explained this reaction is similar to an asthma attack - and attempted to use my recuse inhaler. I used my rescue inhaler about 6-8 times. I was offered water and to sit down to focus on breathing. Breathing returned to normal after waiting the full 30mins. I immediately scheduled a follow-up with my PCP to discuss my experience.

A 39 year old female patient received first dose of BNT162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Formulation: Solution for injection, Lot number: EN6201,Expiry date: Unknown) via intramuscular in right deltoid on 01Mar2021 as a single dose for COVID-19 immunization. The patient previously first dose of BNT162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Formulation: Solution for injection, Lot number: EN6201, Expiry date: Unknown) via intramuscular in left deltoid on 01Feb2021 as a single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. The patient's medical history included ongoing lung cancer from 03Jul2017, metastatic disease from lung cancer from: Dec 2018 and hypertension from: 2007. Concomitant medication included Losartan at 100 mg once a day tablet for blood pressure, Atorvastatin at 80 mg a day tablet for cholesterol, Lorbrena from 26Jun2019 at 100 mg once a day tablet for lung cancer, vitamin D3 at 3000 IU once a day gel cap and coq10 supplement at 100mg and all the drugs were ongoing. The patient did not receive any vaccination 4 weeks prior to the vaccination. No AEs (adverse events) following prior vaccination. The patient started feeling better around 27Feb2021. The patient was a cancer patient, and took marijuana and CBD which helps her sleep. The patient had pain in the serratus anterior the next morning 08Feb2021 and by the 11Feb2021 she had the massive bone and muscle pain spanning over left upper torso and lasted for about 3 weeks. The patient medicated herself with CBD and marijuana tincture and she would occasionally take Ibuprofen. The patient was thinking COVID vaccine can cause a variety of things. The patient got the second dose on 01Mar2021 in her right arm. The morning after the patient got her vaccine, experienced pain in the right side under the ribcage muscle in the serratus anterior muscle. As a treatment drug the patient received Tylenol and felt it masked the pain and was fine and still a little sore in the muscular distribution which was on and off mildly sore, not bad and states that the patient recovered with lasting effects. The patient started to have a slight cough, that the patient not had a cough in over a year and a half due to lung cancer and did not think it was lung cancer. The cough first time started to get a little worse, and that day was very cold and when the patient tried to walk around her boyfriends house and started jogging, the patient could not take a deep breath and could not expand ribcage because there was immense pain on 06Mar2021. As a treatment therapy the patient received some CBD and went to sleep, and this lasted about 2 days and after that it got a little better. The patient was improved but had slight lasting effects. The patient experienced cough the whole next week which got worse and was so bad and it was productive. The patient had stress urinary incontinence and was back on her pee pads that she had not been on for years. The patient palpated her left arm pit and felt an enlarged lymph node on Saturday 13Mar2021. On 15Mar2021 the patient would be two weeks since the patient was fully vaccinated and have seen reports that the vaccine causes lymphadenopathy. The patient found the lymph node and called her oncologist because she was worried about the worsening cough. The patient also reached to a Nurse Practitioner and the only thing that worried her was the cough, that she has not seen this in the data so far. The Nurse Practitioner sent her to have a chest x-ray on 18Mar2021 and it showed pleural effusion and fluid in her pleural space around her lungs. The patient had a thoracentesis 19Mar2021 to drain the fluid and they tested it and it was cancer. The patient seems to her there was a correlation with getting the COVID vaccine. On 22Mar2021, the patient got CT Scans of progression in her body and states the pleural effusion had been drained and was less but was still there. The patient felt weird all weekend and thought it was the thoracentesis that caused her anxiety and on 23Mar2021 and had neurological symptoms and thought that the patient had a stroke or something because she has had that in the past. The patient was all related to her lung cancer. The patient called her neuro oncologist and they said to go to ER (emergency room) on 23Mar2021. The patient had newfound brain cancer, and it was worsening, that it was only found Tuesday. The patient underwent brain MRI on 23Mar2021. This was new worsening disease, before it was stable and not getting worse or better, it was not active in the brain and felt a little nervous all the side effects after she got it. The outcome of the event Extreme bone and muscle pain spanning over left upper torso, Pain in the right side under the ribcage muscle in the serratus anterior muscle was recovering and the outcome of all the other events was unknown. No follow-up attempts are possible. No further information is expected.; Sender's Comments: Based on available information, the reported events are assessed as unrelated to BNT162b2 and can be attributed to intercurrent conditions in this patient with underlying lung cancer, metastatic disease from lung cancer and other comorbidities. The impact of this report on the benefit/risk profile of the Pfizer product is evaluated as part of Pfizer procedures for safety evaluation, including the review and analysis of aggregate data for adverse events. Any safety concern identified as part of this review, as well as any appropriate action in response, will be promptly notified to Regulatory Authorities, Ethics Committees and Investigators, as appropriate.

On 03/18, I started experiencing burning on my tongue. My tongue became swollen and more irritated throughout the day. This progressed in to 03/19, when my throat became sore and swollen as well. I felt like I do when I have strep throat with the amount of irritation in my throat and tongue. By the evening of 03/19, my tongue was so swollen it was hard to talk and articulate sounds. It was difficult to swallow liquids and I started to get scared. I took a Benedryl and went to sleep. The irritation and swelling eased Saturday and by Sunday afternoon, it was like nothing happened.

I began feeling short of breath after doing minor tasks in my own (doing laundry, walking up steps, etc.) during the 2nd week after my covid vaccination. On the morning of April 10th I awoke to feeling severely winded as if I had run 18 marathons just to walk up 3 steps or to walk across a room. I was taken to the ER where they performed a catscan on me and could see that my lungs were ?full? of blood clots and I was experiencing a pulmonary embolism. I do not smoke, take birth control pills, I do not drink. There is no family history of clotting, nor did any traumatic incident happen within the last two weeks to cause this.

I immediately felt dizzy, like I was drunk. At around 4pm, I started feeling wheezy. It felt like there was a mastiff sitting on my chest. I took some benadryl, which helped. The next day, the feeling persisted and I had a mild cough, especially while lying down. More benadryl. Same on the third day. I did not seek medical attention because I didn't think it was an extraordinary reaction and I have had much worse reactions to other things in the past that have been managed with benadryl. I thought what I was experiencing was an expected side effect based on the information I had been given. The feeling started to ease by the 4th day, but then the insomnia, mood swings, exhaustion and body aches set in. The cough was sporadic, but still present. Today, I still get the heavy chest feeling intermittently, activity doesn't seem to have any effect or cause. My arm still itches at the injection site and hurts when touched. I went back to get my second dose on 4/9. When the nurse asked me if I had had any adverse reactions to the first one, I told her about the chest heaviness and coughing and the other symptoms. She stopped what she was doing and called her medical director. They both decided that the first response was enough of an anaphylactic reaction to be a caution for the second. They refused to give me the second dose because they thought the second would elicit a much worse reaction - possibly to the point of intubation. They told me that I would have to be evaluated by a physician and that I would need a "doctor's note" in order to get the second vaccine.

Immediately after receiving the second dose of Pfizer on Tues May 18, I felt prickly sensations throughout my body. After sitting for the recommended 30 minutes (due to known allergies to previous medications), I began to feel dizzy. They monitored me in the tent for several minutes and checked my vitals, which were fine. The nurse thought I may have hyperventilated. I thought I must have just had a mild panic attack. But the attacks did not stop. Rather, the first three days post vaccine, I had several panic attacks a day, even being woken from sleep because of them. It's not fear or a racing mind but a constant racing heart, weakness, feeling faint. I feel prickly sensations and sensation of heat, which are common in panic attacks. But even after three days, they were not letting up. In addition to the attacks, I felt lightheaded, weak and extremely fatigued, even at rest. There is also constant pain and tightness in my neck and jaws. Thursday evening (May 20), I had an episode where I nearly passed out. Once I got seated, my body froze. I was unable to get my words out clearly. Instead of saying the full sentence in my head, I could only get a word or two out. Instead of being able to lift my arm to eat, I couldn't move. The episode lasted about 15-20 minutes. I had several of these episodes on Saturday, two on Sunday and one on Monday. Thinking it was purely anxiety, I reached out to my psychiatrist who prescribed Klonopin to ease the symptoms. I took 0.5mg on Friday afternoon (5/21) and 0.5mg on Saturday morning (5/22). Realizing the Klonopin was likely making my symptoms worse, I have not taken any since Saturday morning (05/22). Most of the day I am breathless, weak, feel faint doing nearly nothing. I have an hour or so a couple of times of day where I'm more functional but still have to move very slowly. Otherwise, I'm either like a zombie or unable to speak clearly, stuttering when I speak, and unable to operate without feeling faint.

She wasn't sure in the beginning if it could be tied to the vaccine, but from her last three hospital visits they are kind of questioning it, its kind of an unexplained reaction. It started where she felt like she couldn't swallow so they ran tests, they thought maybe it was strep throat and everything got cleared. It was nothing viral, nothing medically they could find. They could see the swelling, but theres no reason for it. The back of her tongue feels like it swells feels like she's gagging. It swells then it goes down. It gets worse then it's go back down. It's not getting better, but progressively gets worse then stabilizes then worse again. It just won't go away. She was a little skeptical of the Covid shot as she had flu shot which she did get Guillain-Barre. She was told it was safe. She was tested for strep probably 5 days after her symptoms started. She also got a Covid swab too because they didn't know what it was. They tested her for everything, viral, bacterial, Covid, strep, and everything came back negative. They are kind of puzzled, she's having symptoms, they come and go and it drives her to the emergency room because of the swelling in the soft tissue in her throat. She did read online there is some people with the vaccine have had swelling so she thought and wondered if its related.she went to the emergency room three times and she has been to an ENT, neurology, her family doctor, she has been everywhere. They discharged her every time she went to the hospital. they see the inflammation almost like it's spasming, as it gets spasms and goes down then goes up, it's very spontaneous. She went to a gastroenterologist and they did a scope and they said it was red and inflamed all the way from the back of her throat to her soft palate and all the way to her stomach, it's swollen and inflamed. She states that's why she's on steriods. They thought it could be a viral infection and the biopsy came back and it's not so they are questioning the vaccine. She states Rheumatology, they also did a test to see if her inflammation marks are high and they weren't so it shows it's not her autoimmune, it's something else. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included bacterial test: negative on an unspecified date, endoscopy: red and inflammed all the way from back to throat on an unspecified date , sars-cov-2 test: negative on an unspecified date on May2021, streptococcus test: negative on an unspecified date on May2021, viral test: negative on an unspecified date. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of experiencing swelling of her soft tissue palate at the back of her throat/swelling where her soft tissue palate gets swollen. Adverse event resulted in visit to emergency room and physician office. Outcome of all the events were not recovered. Information on batch/Lot number was obtained. Further information has been requested.

And not been able to like think straight and like find words and she really honestly wouldn't have been able to even report her side effect because she couldn't even, so then she was tired, just like not feeling well and just exhausted all the time also she got up like nausea and then developed sinusitis and didn't know if that was like during that weekend or the following week but with the nausea like after like Zofran didn't help with this kind of nausea and so she was like maybe she have something wrong like with her sinuses or something. It was pollen season here and so she was taking allergy medication (unspecified medicine) and she was trying to avoid being outside where the pollen was and then she got an allergy test done recently and she was not allergic to anything. She has been tested with ear, nose, throat (ENT) and he did a Computed Tomography Scan (CT) and had fluid. The physician put her on 3 different types of antibiotics (unspecified medication) but nothing worked still have sinusitis, but the nausea was gone but this was like 3 months of being like this. And like most in her ear it's like an earache and he said that like when he was looking in there, looks better now but it's still like it's irritated but the fluid was draining but still have like she was sneezing and blowing her nose and just all this like constantly. And he sent her to a GI doctor because she was actually like dry breathing because whenever there was draining from her nose down my throat, it's hardening and so she got that checked out and had changes in her bowel like she normally went like once a day and she was going like 2 to 3 time. So, she has an endoscopy and colonoscopy done, everything came back normal. They did like, they took like few samples of something not, no problem or anything just a few samples just to see and everything came back normal, all her bloodwork came back normal, and she was checked for celiac and her thyroid and her everything came back normal but during that time she went from 125 down to 108 during like month period basically month and a half would say, and she was slowly gaining it back. But it was hard for her to eat because she was nauseous like kept laying down and then, so she was slowly gaining it back and she was feeling like she was 111 now but that was a weight loss suddenly. There's one that's kind of very disturbing, so the next morning woke up after the Pfizer and she was definitely sick but noticed she had bruising on her legs from an unknown origin like she was feeling like someone was kicking her or and that's being continuing and her legs were just literally all bruised up, her arm, like it started on her arms last week and actually like for the first time last night she witness that was happening and just felt a little pain in her wrist slight and her vein was like bulging like wrist was having bulging pain which was kind of like tendon and that was it and woke up and there was a bruise about the size of a quarter on her left and was and that's the first time that she has actually realized that she was getting one because she woke up this morning and just pressed on that spot because she knew it was the on because it hurts. But she had never actually felt the pain and then went to sleep and then woke up and it was like that, but she can't, her primary care they don't have a 'dermatologist' appointment till 22Jun2021. So, she was going to try to find one around here, but it meant this all started right after the vaccine. The patient received antibiotics as a treatment drug for the events, she thinks the first one was like 'CIVAX' or something. The outcome of the event nausea was resolved on unknown date in 2021, the event weight loss was resolving, and for other events the outcome was unknown. Information on the lot/batch number has been requested.

On May 23rd I was taking out the trash and I did not feel right. I went to lay down and my chest, throat and head started to feel tight. I called the ambulance and went the ER. In the ambulance they had to give me medicine to start my organs again, they told me that they were getting ready to shut down. They took me to the ER to stabilize me. I was going to the bathroom and I had another attack and they had to give me other medicine to start my organs again. They admitted me to the ICU, which I was three for 4 days. At first, they did not know what was going on. Then they transferred me to another Hospital for a Cardiac Ablation. I went home shortly after that and then shortly after being home I started to have the symptoms again. My resting heart rate was over 200 bpm. At first, I thought it was fluttering but then the symptoms started to get worse. I went back to the ER and they admitted me over night for observation. They determined that I had another part of my heart not working properly which now they are going to do another cardiac ablation. My doctor as of right now is monitoring me.

First shot - Large dark bruise for five days along with pain and heaviness in arm for 4 days. Nasty asthma attack on day two. I hadn?t had one over a year and a half prior to the vaccine. Second shot - Shortness of breath, hives on face, swelling in arms, burning feeling in eyes, softball size purple bruise on arm, burning in right arm from tips a finger to middle of the back of the neck, severe nausea, and headache all started within approximately 10 minutes of getting the shot. I developed and ran a fever of 102 to 103 for four consecutive days starting on day two. Had to take a Motrin/Tylenol sport to try to get the fever down. The nausea, burning eyes, burning in the arms, and pain in the arms lasted approximately a week and a half. I went to the doctor three or four days in as the pharmacist was concerned I was getting cellulitis in my arm because of the symptoms. He stated I was having a very bad reaction to the vaccine and prescribed anti-nausea meds. He stated I should probably take steroids but it would counteract what the shot was trying to do. He advised me to come back if the redness in my arm got any bigger. It didn?t, but my arm had a nasty red bruise for roughly 3 to 4 weeks before it went away.

2 days after the vaccine I started to have body ache and chills. Then the following symptoms started to come rapidly. Headache, shortness of breathe, fever, fatigue, loss of taste and smell. I felt like I was going to die (for lack of a more tactful description). This lasted for 3 weeks then the body aches started to disappear along with the chills, fever and shortness of breathe. About a week later the headache was gone. My taste and smell started to come back about a week after the headaches were gone but they are still not quite right. Things still don't taste like they used to or smell like they used to.

I began to experience common symptoms about 24 hours after the shot. On Friday or Saturday night (4/30 or 4/31) - I think it was Friday but am not sure, I began experiencing extreme chest pain and possibly esophageal pain and shortness of breath. It was difficult to breathe, the pain was so intense I was crying out and crying, I began profusely sweating, lost color and experienced ringing in my ears as I was close to passing out (had made it to the bed at this point). I asked my husband to call for an ambulance but w waited to do so. These intense pains and shortness of breath passed after about an hour. I also experienced headaches that would not go away for days. I ultimately went to an emergency walk-in clinic Sunday, May 1 and talked to them about my chest pains and headaches. They wrote off my chest/upper back pains as an anxiety attack, which I have never had in my life, and recommended a different OTC medication for the headaches which ultimately went away. I am not one to seek emergency medical care, I do not have heart or anxiety problems but the chest and upper back pains were excruciating but short lived. Very scary!
