Friday morning he woke up and had what he described as itchy/painful raised, red patches of skin on his right collarbone, under his chin, across his face (right cheek, temple). His temperature was about 100* and he was, quite frankly, pretty miserable. These weren't little skin irritations, they were giant patches of inflamed tissue covering the better part of each cheek, his temple, under the chin and then in smaller spots on his collarbones and back. Saturday the rash moved to cover the left side of his face, and the left collarbone. (And no, for the record, I did not switch laundry detergents, change his diet or anything like that.) As of today, 6/21 condition has improved but not fully resolved.

The patient received vaccine on 18Jun2021, Friday and on 21Jun2021 night, he began to have rash, like an allergic rash all over the body.

Patient was taken to doctor at the urgent care, where he was prescribed with Prednisone 20 mg 1 tablet by mouth daily for 3 days and Benadryl 25 milligrams. Reporter attributed the events to vaccine because that was the only thing that was different since the rash broke out. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of allergic rash all over body and no lab works were performed. Patient was due for his second dose on 09Jul2021. The clinical outcome of the event was unknown.; Sender's Comments: Based on known drug safety profile and close temporal association, the event of allergic rash is assessed as related to the product BNT162B2.

tiredness; weakness; head is burning; fatigue; drooling; hives; itching; redness; gained weight since the vaccine; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient's mother). A 12-years-old male patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, formulation: Solution for injection, Lot Number: ER8729; Expiration Date: 31Jul2021) via an unspecified route of administration, in left arm on 27May2021 (at the age of 12-years-old) as dose 1, single for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included patient had an allergic reaction to penicillin before. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. The patient had a meningitis vaccine a month before the covid vaccine. Patient's mother was calling on behalf of her 12 year old son. She stated her son received the first dose of the Pfizer COVID vaccine on 27May2021. On 27May2021,6 hours after receiving the vaccine the patient said he was very itchy and had hives on the left side of his chest. At first she thought the patient had poison ivy because it was like 3-4 inches across. The next day the patient said he was itchy when he sat up and it went up onto his neck and cheeks and that's when she realized it was hives. She called the doctor, applied cold compresses to the patient and gave him Benadryl. The hives resolved very quickly, the patient has never had hives or an allergic reaction before. By 2:30 the patient had the Benadryl and you couldn't see the red anymore. The patient could sit up but kept saying it itched and that went on for about 48 hours. You would have to look pretty closely to see the bumps. One week after the patient received the vaccine he was really weak and tired (on 03Jun2021). She stated her son also keeps having episodes of tiredness and weakness. It felt like the patient had been exercising and his legs were tired and his head felt like it was burning (on 03Jun2021). The patient's temperature was 97.7. The patient laid down and he slept pretty hard, and was drooling, for a couple of hours. When the patient woke up he didn't know where he was, the time or date and within a couple of hours the patient was fine. She didn't think anything of it the first time it happened. This event happened again 2 weeks after the vaccine. The doctor said they symptoms sound like mono but the patient's lymph nodes aren't swollen and he doesn't have a sore throat. The doctor thought the patient was having a delayed immune response to the vaccine because of the timing of it. The doctor said that by 3 weeks this should have resolved. The patient has had 2 mild episodes of this since, but he didn't go to sleep he just laid down. The doctor said to wait to get the second dose, so now it is 4 weeks since the first vaccine. The patient was at the 30th percentile for his height and average for his weight. The patient had gained weight since the vaccine but his mother didn't know if that was related to the vaccine. She was afraid of the patient having myocarditis with the second dose. The patient went to sleep after taking the Benadryl last time and she was afraid that the patient won't be able to tell her if he was having chest pain or problems breathing. She stated if his reaction was just hives she would give him Benadryl but with the risk of myocarditis after being given Benadryl he wouldn't be alert enough to tell her if something was going on with his heart due to him having fatigue as well already. The redness went away within 24 hours and the itching was gone in 48-72 hours. The redness was gone the evening of the 28th. The patient could still see and feel the bumps, the bumps were just white. The patient's head was burning happened the first 2 times he had these events. The patient's temperature was 97.7 and 98.1 fahrenheit when this happened. The other two times the patient said his head burned between his eyes and not like a headache. The doctor said that if the fatigue symptom continued he would recommend doing some blood work but since it has gotten better his mother may take him to an allergist. She thinks that the patient may be allergic to something in the vaccine. she was thinking of taking him to an allergist to see if he was allergic to one of the ingredients in the vaccine. She stated from the list of the ingredients the only ingredient she found that could be linked to the vaccine that could cause an allergic reaction would be PEG. She stated her son never had any allergies to medications or vaccines in the past. She stated she was not sure what advice should be given regarding her son receiving the second dose of the vaccine due to him having an allergic reaction to the first dose and tiredness and weakness. She stated she was not sure of the risks of vaccine versus him not being vaccinated. She would like to know if he should receive the second dose after experiencing side effects with the first dose. Reporter seriousness events was unspecified. Outcome of the events hives and itching recovered on May 2021, redness recovered on 28May2021, event tiredness and weakness was recovering and for other events was unknown.

Had him sit, take off his mask, gave him water to sip, took BP (102/60), within 5 minutes he started to come back around, was able to follow command (wiggle fingers) vocalize that he could breathe fine, and felt that there was water behind his ears.

Got the 1st dose of COVID-19 Pfizer vaccine and after 24hours, kid got rash on the stomach and left shoulder and it became worse day by day.

His mother was present and told us he had multiple allergies to foods and sulfites, as well as asthma. He used to carry an epi pen but does not currently, also has a history of asthma for which he carries a rescue inhaler. He received the Pfizer vaccine at approximately 9:15am in his left deltoid, and about 2 minutes later Mom notified me and the school nurse that he was starting to get "hives". I noted a localized, small area of erythema on his left upper arm around the bandaid, approximately silver dollar sized, not raised. School RN removed the bandaid. He did not complain of itching and at that time stated he felt like he was breathing fine. The school RN gave him 50mg of Benadryl PO per the mom's request at 0920. The patient was in no distress, breathing and speaking normally. At 0922 he stated he felt like his throat and tongue were swelling, so I had him remove his mask, and asked mom if his lips looked swollen to which she responded "yes". He stated it felt like it was hard to swallow. We placed a pulse ox on the patient and his oxygen saturations were 96-100%, HR 85-90, RR 30. We administered an adult epi pen (0.3mg of epinephrine) into his left lateral thigh at 0923 and had the school office call EMS. The patient remained in no acute distress, and said the swelling in his tongue felt better after the epi, but that his throat still felt swollen. Lungs clear bilaterally, RR remained 24-30, HR 110-115, pulse ox 98-100%, erythema on left upper arm resolved. Fire department arrived at 0935- report given and they checked a pulse ox as well.

His eyes hurt when he moved them around. Fatigue. He's been glued to the couch since Friday. I had given Advil and Tylenol. After the prolonged fever, I eventually called into the doctor's office. The pediatrician said it was common and said to wait it out but seek treatment if it got worse. He is able to eat but is awful nauseous. He is eating what sounds good. The pain stays the same when he eats.

inflammation in his intestines and his stomach; petechial rash on his legs, which is still getting a little bit worse; HSP; stomach pain/extreme stomach pain started again and so on/intermittent stomach pain/lower left abdominal pain; lower left abdominal pain and he doubled over in pain and started vomiting; Caller states again he had intermittent pain throughout the day; vomited about three times in total, it wasn't like excessive vomiting; didn't feel well/feel sick again; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient's parent). A 13-year-old male patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number: EW0164, expiration date: 31Aug2021), at the age of 13 years old, in left arm on 14May2021 16:00 at single dose for covid-19 immunisation. The patient medical history was not reported. The patient was a normal 13 years old, he doesn't take anything, he's active. The patient did not receive any other vaccines within 4 weeks prior to vaccination. The vaccines administered on same date with BNT162B2 was none. The previous immunization with the Pfizer vaccine was none. The patient previously received the flu shot every year and experienced no adverse event. On 16May2021, about 48 hours after the vaccination, the patient started having stomach pain in the middle of the night. It began 16May2021 in the evening and into 17May2021, the patient was having stomach pain and not feeling well. Reporter stated the patient woke her up. Reporter stated they thought it was some food he ate. Reporter stated they tested his covid antibodies and they also personally at home on 17May2021 night, they tested him with a home kit for covid just to double check because nobody really brought it up and it was negative also. Reporter confirmed the home covid test was done on 17May2021. Reporter stated there was no known exposure, they just did it to make sure he didn't have covid. The patient was taken to the emergency room on 18May2021. Reporter stated they were waiting because patient felt good during the day and they thought nothing was wrong, but then the extreme stomach pain started again and so on 18May2021, she took him to the local emergency room. Reporter stated they didn't do much other than push on his stomach, she was worried about appendicitis. Reporter stated they didn't worry too much, but she thought maybe it was his appendix. The doctor examined him and said he had a stomach issue and released him with medicine and that was the 18May2021. On 19May2021 and 20May2021, the patient would get intermittent stomach pain, again thinking it was a stomach bug or something. On 20May2021, the patient experienced petechial rash on his legs. Reporter called the pediatrician and again the patient was having intermittent stomach pain and kept having it intermittently. The patient would feel fine then feel sick again then on the 22May2021, the patient had more bad stomach pain and some vomiting so he wound up back in the emergency department, it was a different one than the first on 22May2021. The patient did a lot of blood work, his labs came back good, but he did not do a CAT scan, but reporter tried to do everything else, tested patient for covid, antibodies and everything and they sent him home again on the 22May2021. The patient had intermittent pain again throughout 23May2021 then on 24May2021, he went to visit the pediatrician just for a visit and they were thinking its Henoch-Schonlein purpura (HSP) which is an autoimmune response and they still didn't have a diagnosis for his stomach. Reporter stated patient was perfectly fine at the pediatrician, then when they got home, he started having lower left abdominal pain and he doubled over in pain and started vomiting. The patient vomited about three times in total, it wasn't like excessive vomiting. Reporter stated the pain would bring it on, he does have a rash, which is still getting a little bit worse. Reporter stated they took him back to the emergency room, they did a CAT scan and that showed he had inflammation in his intestines and his stomach so they kept him in the hospital. The patient was admitted on 24May2021 when he visited the emergency room for the third time. Reporter stated because patient was in pain, they admitted him to watch him. Reporter stated they were worried about the patient having intussusception with the bowel, where his bowel can go inside each other and can create a blockage, so they wanted to admit him to make sure that didn't happen. Reporter stated the worst of the stomach pain was on 25May2021, which would have been at 19:00. The patient had not had an episode since then, he hadn't had an attack like that since. The whole week before from 17May2021, or the 16May2021 when it started through 25May2021, it was very intermittent of a lot of pain. So far, knock on wood, the patient hadn't had it since 25May2021 at 19:00 and hopefully tonight it won't happen. Reporter stated it will be about 48 hours of not having the bad pain. Reporter stated he still has some pain, but not like where she had to rush him to the emergency room. The patient's vomiting ended on 24May2021 or 25May2021. He had recovered completely from vomiting so far. The patient was released on 26May2021 with a diagnosis of HSP, which was an auto immune response, and he'd never had this happen before. Reporter stated if she googled HSP, it said it can still get worse, but it was not the worst case of HSP. Reporter stated the patient has never had anything like this before, he was perfectly fine, they made it through covid and didn't get covid and he is a healthy kid so she thought Pfizer should know. The outcome of the events HSP, stomach pain, petechial rash was not recovered. The outcome of vomiting was recovered on 24May2021 or 25May2021. The outcome of the events inflammation in intestines and stomach, didn't feel well/feel sick, intermittent pain and lower left abdominal pain was unknown. No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information is expected.

Patient was examined by his pediatrician and cleared for physical exercise on 06/01/2021; 4 days before receiving his 1st COVID19 shot on 06/05/2021. On 06/07/2021 we dropped patient off at Soccer Camp. At 10am he started basic soccer ball control drills, which did not include rigorous exercise. At 10:30am we received a call from him, asking for us to pick him up as he had almost blacked out a few times. We arrived at the sports field at 10:40am. I found patient to be red faced, sweaty, but cohesive. He described the following symptoms occurred during mild exercise: difficulty breathing, thirsty, fast heartbeat, "black things" over eyes, preventing clear vision, difficulty focusing, difficulty hearing, feeling faint He took a water break and used his pro-air inhaler, as he thought he might have been having his 1st asthma attack (he's only ever presented with slight wheezing or night time cough). After a short break, his symptoms subsided, so he re-joined the group. After one more soccer drill, the symptoms came back again, but this time he experienced very hard palpitations and the feeling that his shoes were squeezing his feet. At that point he asked for permission to call to us and have us collect him. We took him home and monitored him for a while. He seemed calm and symptom free. I had him shower and he was fine for the rest of the day. The following day I had him jog on our treadmill for a period. He was symptom free. I increased inclination on the treadmill and he handled it ok without any of the previous symptoms. However, now realizing that he was within the 3 day window of his COVID shot, I decided not take him back to the soccer camp. As of 06/13/2021 he has not complained of any symptoms returning. That said, he also has not performed any significant outdoor exercise since then either, besides walking.

Rash on legs and tops of feet that ended up in broken blood vessels (on tops of feet) . Thought it might be related to sun exposure, but went to specialty doctor who recommended blood work done.

He woke up with chest pain in the upper right quadrant at midnight and then it intensified when he was breathing deep breaths. They woke him up when he was sleeping and did not go away. Then, it continued through the next day and we asked our doctor if we needed to keep an eye on him because of all the reporting and stuff about the heart problems. They did a triage consult visit to see if it could be an adverse event from the vaccine. The course of action was to take 2 ibuprofen every 4 hours and use ice and heat to see if the pain improved to rule out musculoskeletal situations because that was what they thought it was. We did that for 2 days and then the pain moved to his back upper right quadrant and we noticed a rash all over his abdomen and we were not sure where he got that. Based on the fact that the pain moved the doctor was more confident that it was not an adverse event.

PT had his first dose of Pfizer vaccine at 5pm on 21st. He looked low energy at night. We felt his forehead and he was warmer than usual. However, thermometer did not show he had a fever. He looked much better in the morning on 22nd. We thought that was it. Only after a week did PT tell us he had more reaction. However, because he was well then, we did not pay too much attention. When we learned of the link between Covid 19 vaccine and Myocarditis, we asked him in detail again. Here are his responses. He started feeling his throat hurt when he had dinner that around 7pm. It lasted only that night. He started feeling chest pain around dinner time too. It only hurt when he moved. That chest pain lasted longer and disappeared on the 23rd. He started feeling there were air bubbles under his skin on the flat part of his left shoulder (above the injection site and below his neck) on the 22nd. He did not see them. He just felt them. When he pressed them with fingers, he felt them popping. This feeling lasted for a total of three days. He could feel the amount of air bubbles become less over the three days. We have not seen any side effect in the news like his. We are not sure that he should get his second dose. Please someone could advise us, please send us an email. Much appreciated.

Fifteen hours after the vaccine my son woke up and his respiratory rate was high. It was over 140. I woke him up and he had chills and diarrhea. Because of his Cortisol Deficiency I called his doctor. I was advised to give him 30mg Hydrocortisone and lots of water. His Respiratory and heart rate were high. He was feeling a little short of breath and he had heart palpitations. We went to the ER and they did lots of testing. He had a fever and Sepsis testing. All results were normal and they gave him a Liter of fluids. He was discharged after two hours and his pulse was still high at 105-110. We monitored him and his heart rate was slowing and he started to feel better. His Endocrinologist had him take a double dose of Hydrocortisone the next day. His improvement progressed and by the fourth day the symptoms were gone. He was able to do his normal activities but tired and worn out from the ordeal. One week later he had a slightly elevated heart rate but it resolved quickly. He had had a local reaction in his arm with swelling and a rash after the first vaccine.

The patient was given the first dose of the Pfizer covid vaccine, subsequently he was standing waiting with his mother for his younger sibling to receive his vaccine and after I had administered that, I turned around and saw that he was starting to lean over and his mother and I went to grab him as he went down and he fainted momentarily. We slowed his descent, but he had a small abrasion on his head (I think from the carpet). He said he felt dizzy and nauseous. I'm not sure if he was also watching while I was giving his sibling the shot and that exacerbated the situation. We had him checked out by EMT and he was fine after the initial fainting.
