Received vaccine at 1730, then just before midnight my heart began to pound hard and very fast, and it made me feel short of breath or as though I had to cough. After about a minute I thought it might be SVT so I did a valsalva maneuver and it stopped. I was resting in bed, no alcohol or caffeine, and this has never happened to me before. Since then, I have felt at least one heart palpitation per day, sometimes many more. The last few days I have felt extremely fatigued and have had an odd sensation in my chest. On 1/7 I developed a dry cough, and was swabbed for Covid because I felt so bad. It was negative. This made me wonder if the odd sensation in my chest was related to my heart and not my lungs. I am due for my second vaccine today, and am unsure if I should get it.

Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine Approximately 24 hours after injection I felt dyspnea with minimal exertion and at rest while wearing my hospital mask, which I attributed to the cheap quality of the mask. Breathlessness was relieved after I took it off. I shoveled snow with no problem over the weekend, and was off work. Three days later, on 1/3 around 7 pm, I experience the same feeling while wearing the same type of mask, and it was relieve when I took it off. The following day, 1/4 around 2pm, while wearing a different disposable mask in the grocery store, felt extremely overheated and realized I was having difficulty breathing with minimal exertion. This time the feeling did not pass when I left the store/removed my mask, and residual effects of not being able to easily take a deep breath stayed with me the entire day. The feeling was gone in the morning, but did eventually re-occur the next day (tightness in my lungs not allowing for easy deep breaths) on 1/5 near the end of a shift where I had been wearing yet a different type of disposable mask. The symptoms starting around 4:30 pm and lasted throughout the rest of the evening. At this point I notified employee heath and scheduled a covid test. The next two days, on 1/6 and 1/7, the same type of dyspnea persisted throughout the day; while at rest, not relieved, and with no other symptoms (no cough, fever, etc.) Ibuprofen appears to relieve the discomfort, and I have returned to work, however the symptoms are still present if I am not taking Ibuprofen. Possibly some kind of pleurisy. My lung sounds are clear.

At approximately 0725 in addition to the body aches and restlessness, I began to get severe nausea, weakness, light-headedness, headache, profuse sweating, and severe chest pain and shortness of breath.

My temp was over 100. Dr appt - went to it late afternoon he wanted me test for COVID. Took vitals - mostly normal - temp.; checked OXYGEN - normal. COVID test - was positive. Temperature went to 101 that night - couldn't breathe good - couldn't stop shaking; I was aching and I was in pain; I couldn't feel warm enough. Tried to sleep and drink fluids. Still didn't have test results from COVID test on Thursday - temp was up to 102 now. The doctor said they couldn't do anything until they had results back of test.

I managed to get to the bathroom - but having trouble breathing and I almost threw up - heard ringing in my ears and room was spinning. There is a lot of things after that I don't remember - when they moved me to ambulance to hospital bed I realized I had an IV in me. They stabilized me. They let me go home.

She was really itching; couldn't really taste, things didn't really taste right to her; immediate soreness in arm; she has pain that extends up into her neck; Nausea; hasn't had much of an appetite; sweating; left hand swelling; hives on forearm; gastrointestinal issues; Fever; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). This consumer reported similar events for two patients. This is the first of two reports. A 40-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection, lot number: EL8982), intramuscular at left arm on 21Jan2021 15:38 at a single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included Tachycardia (started about 4 years ago), Hypertension (started about 4 years ago) and Essential tremor from 2020 (she has been having symptoms for a while; finally, during the summer of 2020, she was diagnosed through a neurologist) and anxiety, all ongoing; pain, back problems and sleep disorder.Concomitant medications included ongoing Tizanidine as muscle relaxant for back problems, ongoing Metoprolol tartrate for hypertension and tachycardia, Primidone for Essential tremor and ongoing Clonazepam for essential tremors, to help her sleep, and also for anxiety. No prior vaccinations (within 4 weeks). The patient got the first COVID vaccine dose. Afterwards, she went to school and it "was downhill from there". 5 days of persistent symptoms including sweating, muscle pain, joint pain and left hand swelling. It was further reported that she had to wait 15 minutes and then she drove home which is about a 35-minute drive. So about 45 mins after receiving the vaccine, she noticed her tongue, it was more on the right side of her tongue, she can't explain the sensation. She couldn't really taste. Things didn't taste right to her. This lasted 24 hours. She woke up the next day, 22Jan2021, feeling not quite right. She took some Tylenol that morning and went on into school. She took some ibuprofen in the middle of day, it wasn't a big deal. She has a history of tachycardia, but her pulse kept reading normal. She had a drink she was drinking from lunch and she ended up having the remainder of it the last few hours of that day. At about the end of her workday, around 15:30 she was finishing the Cdrink off and she said to herself "oh that taste like a regular drink again". This tongue sensation/lack of taste resolved. At that point, she got really excited because she thought this was all that she would experience with the vaccine. She was grateful she had the chance to have the vaccine. She mentions her arm was very sore right off the bat. She experienced immediate soreness in her arm right after receiving the COVID-19. She thought when they were injecting her, it hit her bone. In fact, she joked about this with the person administering the vaccine. The person at the facility told her to rub it, it actually helps with that. This kind of soreness didn't seem like a major problem. She was still experiencing this soreness. If she is sitting on the couch sideways, with her side of her arm against the couch, she has pain that extends up into her neck. It was pretty painful. Friday, 22Jan2021 (24 hours later after receiving the vaccine), by the time she got home from work, she was really sore. She had some real muscle pain around her hips and upper thighs, both of them. The soreness extended across. It was like she had inflammation that started flaring up. She felt pretty sore that evening. It wasn't like a normal muscle soreness. She went to bed because she was pretty tired. The next morning (Saturday, 23 Jan 2021), she couldn't get off the couch. She had such bad muscle and joint pain. She slept off and on, the pain was pretty bad. Her whole body had so much stiffness and inflammation. Every muscle and every joint just hurt. She confirmed that she hasn't been able to regulate her body temperature. This has been going on since Saturday evening (23Jan2021). She stated that this wasn't normal for her. She does take medications to lower heart rate but she hadn't taken it. She was talking to her best friend about how she had been sore and slept all evening. She checked her pulse and it had dropped down to 40. Her O2 level was at 92. She didn't think it was that big of a deal. Her best friend was kind of freaking out about it. She had such pain and stiffness in her chest that extended across her shoulders, it made it difficult to breathe. She was laboring to breathe. She checked her pulse thinking maybe she was feeling anxious about it and her HR was up, but it wasn't. She states happened so bad yesterday, yesterday was worse than before. She got up on Sunday morning, 24Jan2021, and took a hot shower. When the water from the shower head hit her chest, clarified as her upper chest muscles just below her collar bone, the pressure of the water hitting her was painful. However, she was able to get up, she was moving around. Still the whole time. she had this fever-ish feeling. Her kids were telling her that they were sweating because she had the house at 76 degrees. Monday morning, 25Jan2021, she woke up and she was itchy around her left forearm. She was really itching on Friday night, but she didn't think anything about it. When she took a hot shower yesterday (25Jan2021), a red rash came up on her chest and it looked like she had hives on her forearm. She didn't know if the hot water flared that up, but she doesn't have any allergies. She also had gastrointestinal issues. She has had some nausea that has lasted the entire time since she received the vaccine. She clarifies the nausea has came and gone. She hasn't had much of an appetite. They thought she had a fever yesterday at school. It was 99. something but she had already taken Tylenol a couple hours before and she was sweating so much. She states she has also had diarrhea the last few days, clarified as the last 2 days (24Jan2021). She has already spoken to someone to report her symptoms but wasn't sure about and had question about getting the second vaccine dose. She reported having gone to Urgent care where she was told she had Post covid vaccine syndrome and that she shouldn't have a problem with the second dose. She explained she went to the urgent care yesterday, 25Jan2021. She called her doctor that morning and was told to continue to treat her symptoms and take ibuprofen and Tylenol but if she got worse, to go to urgent care. So, she went to the urgent care (Product information for the Tylenol and Ibuprofen she has been taking (Ibuprofen: UPC/NDC: not provided when probed. Lot: P142385 Expiry date: Apr2023 and Tylenol: UPC/NDC: not provided when probed. Lot: P121664 Expiry date: Sep2023). The nurse just explained (Name Withheld) was having the same exact symptoms as the patient, except it was (Name Withheld) second dose. Her symptoms were identical to the patient. The patient wasn't initially sure if it was from the vaccine or if it was her anxiety. The patient didn't feel anxious and her heart rate wasn't up. The patient told she didn't think anxiety caused her to feel like she had a fever. The school nurse looked it up and found out more symptoms kind of wax and wane. Her symptoms got much worse. On 25Jan2021, Test: Rapid COVID-19 test Result: Negative. The event immediate soreness in arm was not recovered; event couldn't really taste, things didn't really taste right to her recovered on 22Jan2021 and nausea recovered in Jan2021; and unknown outcome for the other events.; Sender's Comments: Linked Report(s) : US-PFIZER INC-2021101606 same reporter/drug, similar events, different patient

Immediately after given vaccine - feeling of lump in throat. Unable to swallow, shortness of breath, rapid heart beat, flush feeling, intense shaking (especially in legs), pain in chest, lightheadedness, dizziness (ruled anxiety) and was monitored for 40 minutes. Was given orange juice and water and allowed to remove mask to catch breath. Almost everyday since this event, the same event keeps repeating it self (almost daily for 3 weeks). I am unable to control these episodes. Emergency department (ED) has been called and I have gone to see my nurse practitioner. Been trying to make an appointment with my doctor for this week. I have lost 5 pounds (down to 105 lbs. so I can't afford to loose more weight) since this first happened and I have also lost my appetite and unable to function normally.

A 40-year-old female patient received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Solution for injection, Lot number: EL8982), via an unspecified route of administration on Left arm on 21Jan2021 at single dose for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history was not reported. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. It was reported that she was sick in October, she was exposed to COVID, but tested negative, she got sick. She got the vaccine on 21Jan2021, she started having about 4 hours after, chills and body aches, which is normal, then her heart started pounding out of chest, her chest got tight and she had a hard time of breathing. It lasted a couple minutes, the pounding of her heart, but it slowed down, it was fast but not as bad, and she took some Benadryl and after a half hour things settled down, her breathing went back to normal. She contacted her doctor who said to let him know if it happened again, and the next day (22Jan2021) she was kind of out of it, lightheaded, foggy, kind of disconnected, almost like a hangover feeling, just yucky and ran down, Saturday she was feeling a little better, then had 2 more episodes of heart pounding and continued shortness of breath. She ended up in the ER with tachycardia on23Jan2021. She is still having problems. In ER, they found out she was anemic on 23Jan2021.On 23Jan2021 they did bloodwork that day, she had an X-ray and EKG. EKG showed fast rate, normal rhythm, appeared to be no damage to heart. Her blood pressure was high and X-ray of lungs was clear, she had another X-ray this morning, since she developed a cough on 30Jan2021, a barky cough, is coughing up phlegm, Cough started on Saturday, this past Saturday, and is ongoing and worsening, it turned into a cough with a whistle into a barky cough, they are thinking it is connected to asthma response. She is supposed to have pulmonary function tests on the 19th and on the 15th, and endoscope and colonoscope due to anemia to ensure no bleed anywhere. They did another X-ray (on 04Feb2021) this morning and it was clear. They only thing they found is she is anemic, and her doctor is wondering if it is underlying asthma or long haul COVID or a combination of anemia and the shot kicked up stuff. It was reported that she had some asthma like symptoms, which were fully resolving, but kicked back up again since the shot. The events were considered as non-serious. The outcome of the event was chills and body aches was recovered, outcome of the event cough was not recovered and outcome of other events was unknown.

Within a couple minutes of getting the shot, I could feel that my body was reacting. I started itching around my shoulder and chest area on the same side the shot was administered. Then my scalp and face stated itching. I decided to take two children's benadryl chewables (25 mg total) that I had in my purse. I notified the person watching us and he sent a supervisor to talk to me. I stayed about 45 minutes. They kept checking on me. I was itching all over and we all agreed that I needed more Benadryl but also that I shouldn't drive home after taking the full adult dose. I decided to go home and then take some more Benadryl once I got home. My throat was starting to get tight, but it wasn't awful. I took another 25 mg of Benadryl when I got home, for a total of 50 mg. After about 15 minutes, the itching went away. I had to lie down about 30 minutes later when the Benadryl made me sleepy. I didn't have any more serious issues after that.

Approximately 3 to 4 minutes after receiving my first vaccine, I had a hot feeling travel from my toes up to my head. I then became dizzy and felt very faint. The tip of my tongue also became numb. I was too embarrassed to alert the hospital worker. The sensation lasted about a minute. However, the last 2 1/2 days I have been having a fast heart rate after doing minimal activities. I feel very winded by the slightest task. I did go to a clinic today to get my vitals checked. They were fine- but I still continue to feel like my heart rate spikes when I do something as minimal as emptying the dishwasher. It?s very scary and uncomfortable and makes me fearful of taking the second shot.

About 5 minutes after shot, while seated quietly, sudden onset of coughing and difficulty breathing. This is typical of my acute asthma symptoms. It worsened from a few coughs to uncontrollable coughing over about 2 minutes. Took two puffs of albuterol inhaler, coughing and breathing difficulty resolved over another 5 minutes. No further asthma symptoms in week since vaccination. It's unclear if the asthma attack was related to the vaccine. But I often go months without needing to use an inhaler, so timing is suspicious. My usual asthma triggers are environmental allergens (dust, cats), food (hazelnuts), or viral infection. I had been sick with a cold, but with no lingering asthma symptoms for 4 days prior to the vaccine. I also had more typical moderate side effect symptoms the next day (fatigue, sore arm, muscle aches).

About 15 minutes later I started to feel disoriented, lightheaded and felt like I was going to lose consciousness and I felt my heart racing. When they took my blood pressure it was 148/80. Then I started to have difficulty breathing. They took me to the ER in the same facility but the symptoms had resolved I believe because I drank plenty of water while I had the symptoms.

I received my shot at approximately 12:25. Within 5 minutes of my shot I started to feel a bit light headed, hot, having difficulty breathing with my mask on (so I pulled my mask down which helped) and then my heart started racing! After grabbing the attention of the nurses, drinking some water and doing some calming breathing exercises my heart rate went down but not to resting. Upon further investigation through my Apple Watch Heart App, my heart rate had spiked to 141 within those first 5-7 mins of the vaccine. Monitoring myself closely over the next couple of days, my heart rate would have little spikes randomly. I?d be sitting (should be at resting heart rate of 65-70) and I?d spike into the 90?s or 80?s for a few moments then return. The first day it happened about every 20-30 minutes for 3 hours, then tapered off to once every hour or so then the next day every hour or two. By Monday April 26th I felt completely normal and have had no other concerns at this time.

The patient had a family history of cancer and heart problem. Concomitant medications included latanoprost (MANUFACTURER UNKNOWN) taken for glaucoma from Apr2021 and ongoing and gabapentin (MANUFACTURER UNKNOWN) taken for neuropathy from an unspecified start date and ongoing.

The patient did not receive any other vaccines within four weeks prior to the vaccination. The patient experienced difficulty walking and difficulty with speech / slurred speech on 23Apr2021, which required hospitalization from Apr2021 to 26Apr2021. The patient also experienced body pain, achy and uncomfortable, overall feeling badly, cognition was not there, and problems with breathing on 23Apr2021; sweating and headache on 26Apr2021; vomiting and cough on 27Apr2021; feels like she is coming down with a respiratory illness and nausea on 28Apr2021; sleepiness, fatigue, stomach pain, her nerve response is strong/affected, swelling in hands and feet, aspirating, and had arm soreness in Apr2021; and fingers are going numb holding the phone on 29Apr2021. The clinical course was reported as follows: The patient stated that she works in healthcare support and she is a first responder; she identifies as a person with a disability (unspecified). She stated that she did not have very many side effects with first dose, not enough to be a problem. By dinnertime, closer to 18:00-19:00 on 23Apr2021, she started experiencing difficulty walking and with her speech. She was concerned about having a stroke but that she is active and generally healthy. This was unusual for her and she started feeling pain through her body and overall feeling like crap. She did not expect the neurological stuff. By the end of the night on 23Apr2021, she realized she was not feeling good and went to the hospital either that night on 23Apr2021 or early the next day on 24Apr2021 and was admitted to the hospital. The patient stated that her cognition was not there, and her speech was kind of slurry, she felt like everything was slowing, and did not feel like herself. She could not get up unassisted, could not get up out of the bed, chair, or go to bathroom, and still requires the use of a walker and bedside commode, but now with the walker and assistance caller can make it to the bathroom. She also had problems with breathing, but she had a negative COVID-19 PCR test in Apr2021 both arriving to and leaving from the hospital; she did not believe them to be COVID-19 symptoms. At the hospital they did an x-ray or computerized tomography (CT) scan and a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) on her brain in Apr2021 with unknown results. They gave her 3 or 4 intravenous (IV) unspecified medications and she had her complete blood count (CBC) labs done in Apr2021 with unknown results. There was an issue with her lungs, and she is currently waiting for her doctor to read report to see if there is an issue there. The patient stated that she never experienced anything like this after a vaccine. She cannot even get up and move around it is pretty serious. Caller states that at first when she had the symptoms, she thought she was going to wait it out, maybe her immune system is overresponding, give it a chance to resolve. She reported that she could not stand up, legs were shaking and that she had pain that was from her breasts down; felt like a ton of bricks. The patient stated that she is cognitively alert now, speaking normal. There are times it goes in waves where she feels like she can walk with walker but then a few hours later that is not the case. On Tuesday, 27Apr2021 night, the patient had a light dinner but then she was vomiting. Caller states that the pain was throughout her body and felt like someone lighting firecrackers. The patient initially stated 28Apr2021 was when the cough started, but later clarified she first noticed it on 27Apr2021, but at that time she was vomiting and thought it was due to that. However, the next day 28Apr2021, she still had this cough and that the cough was getting worse. She felt like she has a respiratory issue and has been coughing. She was not able to stay awake, even without taking any medications. She does take medications regularly but did not take the medications those days and not having medications would not cause sleepiness. She thought the doctor gave her sedative, but they did not. She states she had fatigue to the point where she was dead asleep, and nurse would come in to take vitals or do whatever and she would wake up suddenly with someone in front of her. She was sitting up with the nurse trying to read the discharge instructions and she fell asleep sitting up. She also complained of stomach pain. The patient had not been to work and not been having to use her brain and talking like she would for 8+ hours a day. She stated that the cough hurts, it feels like somebody is lighting firecrackers in her body. It also feels like this when she sneezes; the nerve response is strong. She reported that it is not a constant hacking cough, not really a dry cough; the cough is in-between productive and dry cough and cough is a bit better now and worse towards the evening. She still has swelling in her feet and hands. It looks like it has gone down a bit. She has a history of neuropathy and that her fingers are going numb holding the phone now. She got the shot in her left arm and those fingers are going numb. She was so tired and feels like did not get enough sleep. The fatigue had a slight improvement. She is more awake than when she was in the hospital. However, it depends as the day goes on, she is wiped out and has to go lay down. She stated that her nerve response is affected, and she had a difficult time with the neuro exam in Apr2021 with unknown results in the hospital. She was having an issue with her arms. She can't say anything about whether it affected her vision because she already has a hard time with her vision. She stated that she was throwing up pretty bad; the pain was really severe through her whole body while vomiting. After the vomiting stopped, the coughing got worse and she was coughing a little bit before the vomiting, but during the vomiting it was to the point she felt like she was drowning. She reported that she was vomiting through her nose and aspirating. After her MRI she started to get a really bad headache. Then when the nurse was coming to read the discharge information, she started to get sweats. She is not menopausal so she cannot blame the sweating on menopause, as reported. The patient also had arm soreness, but does not care about that long as it does not leave any scars. This was not a big deal for her at all. This started shortly after getting the vaccine. She waited for the observation time and no sensation out of the normal, then later towards the night started feeling like having really bad mensural cramps, like an achy feeling where have to go lie down. Then her lower half started to get worse. Her arms were affected and difficult time with the neuro testing. The patient stated she is now on the road to recovery. The clinical outcome of difficulty walking, difficulty with speech / slurred speech, body pain, achy and uncomfortable, nausea, sleepiness, fatigue, and stomach pain was recovering and of overall feeling badly, cognition was not there, problems with breathing, sweating, headache, vomiting, cough, feels like she is coming down with a respiratory illness, her nerve response is strong/affected, swelling in hands and feet, aspirating, had arm soreness, and fingers are going numb holding the phone was unknown.

I had the typical sore arm after the short for approximately 72 hours. The worst of it, the first 24. I did get some intense diarrhea as well for a few days but as I'm near my period, I haven't any idea if it's due to that. On the 27th of May in the evening, I noticed my lymph nodes visibly swollen out of nowhere by my clavicle and they were incredibly painful to palpate. Upon going to the ER they noted that my lymph nodes in my throat were also swollen but not painful. This being a new thing to me, I called the nurse line who advised me to go to the ER.

I woke up on the 4/13/2021 with hives all over my body I did not know what it was I had no pain at injection site I felt fine I went about my business the next day I felt like there were ants crawling under my skin by Thursday the feeling of heat kept rising in my skin i would look and it would be hives the following the bloody noses began every three days i get nose bleeds. the hives has gotten worse I am now taking 6 Benadryl's a day just to avoid itching my skin off I went to medical facility where i received 2 steroid injections. The dr does not know what to do, I had to go to the hospital to cauterize the inside of my nose they could not figure out the cause. I had a stroke back in Oct and I thought maybe something was going on but the Dr said it was not associated. Ever since I received the shot I have not been the same. Right before the hives appear, it feels like the stinging burning feeling right after someone slaps your skin. This lasts for 30 seconds. My skin is dark but my skin turns red with the hives. They gave me Zofran for the nausea, they also gave me a nose pincher thing that I use when I have nosebleeds. Also, I thought it was allergies but I have congestion that have no diagnosis. It is hard to breathe. I feel like I have Covid but I do not. The doctors say I have insomnia, I have headaches due to the congestion. I also feel tired. I have dizziness that feels like I am on a merry go round that I can't get off. Walking up stairs exhausts me which is unusual because I am a physically fit individual. I have had to take a lot of days off from work due to these side effects. Taking as many Benadryl's as I do causes drowsiness and I am a single mother of 4, I cannot be drowsy.

Shortly after the shot (on the same day as the shot), I had some expected side effects, including arm soreness, headache and fatigue. Toward the evening, I began experiencing aches throughout my body, pins and needles, and mild chest pain. The next day, my right lower leg and foot became numb (felt like it was "asleep"). The leg/foot numbness persisted (on and off) for over a week, and kept me awake at nights because it was so unusual and couldn't be shaken off. Over the next week, I also developed stiff joints on my hands, fingers and feet, as well as various pains in those areas. Exactly one week after the vaccine, my chest pain became much more severe and localized to my heart. It felt like my heart was being squeezed. I felt some shortness of breath as well, so I used a finger pulse oximeter to take my oxygen. My oxygen reading was normal, but my heart rate reading did not stabilize (it kept changing from 90's to 60's). My headache was also much more severe and I could not do much for the next two days except rest. After 3 days, the chest pain went away. However, I still have pins and needles and joint pain/stiffness that comes and goes. Summary: Arm soreness: Started on the day of the vaccine and lasted about 4 days, then came back briefly exactly one week later. Headaches: Started on the day of the vaccine and lasted for over a week. Fatigue: Started on the day of the vaccine and lasted for over a week. Body aches: Started the evening of the vaccine and lasted over a week Pins and needles: Started the evening of the vaccine and lasted over a week (still ongoing) Chest pain: Started the evening of the vaccine and became very severe (with irregular heart rate) one week after the vaccine Numbness: Started the day after the vaccine and lasted over a week (still ongoing) Stiff and painful joints: Started the day after the vaccine and lasted over a week (still ongoing)

Went to the car w/daughter after observation period. As she was leaving the parking garage she started having palpitations, was holding her chest, starting "doing breathing techniques." Throat then "dried out," drank water, then after a while it was hard to drink the water. Daughter told her that her face was swollen.

Within 25 minutes of receiving the vaccine, my left arm became very heavy and there was a tingling/neuro sensation in left wrist/hand. A pressure began in the anterior of my throat which increased gradually. I sought treatment in our Urgent Care just after noon that same day. The Provider monitored my vitals which were good and administered liquid Pepcid. Said Provider chose not to give Benadryl as I had taken Zyrec that morning for my allergies. I was discharged from the Urgent Care and went back to work at 1245. At 1730 hours, I had a slight headache above my right eye and extreme right-sided jaw pain with tooth sensitivity. These lasted for only 10 minutes. At 1830, the anterior and bilateral portions of my throat began to feel "prickly" and I developed a wheeze. I used an albuterol inhaler to relieve the wheeze successfully. At this time I also developed an itchiness throughout my whole body, worse on left side than right side. I took 100mg of Benadryl with no relief. At 0300, I took another dose of 100mg of Benadryl with no relief. I also took an itch pill/antihistamine of my husband's which provided no relief. At 0800, I took 20 mg of Zyrtec. At 1030, I took 100mg of Benadryl. I continued to use Benadryl throughout the day, every 4-5 hours. At 1800, I had a fullness in my throat, a tightness in my chest and my left shoulder blade felt almost numb. I also had a hoarse voice which passed by the next morning. The chest tightness was intermittent over the next day or two. On Friday, the itchiness had improved some but was still prominent. I continued to use Zyrtec and Benadryl throughout the day. My Primary Doctor called in Prednisone if needed. By Saturday morning, I felt MUCH better. Today is Sunday and I am no longer itching and I feel so much better today.

( I did not remove my mask) My heart then started to race and I felt a warming, tingling feeling throughout my body. I felt a little hot and light headed. I stayed sitting in my chair, tried to take some deep breath, and everything went away. This lasted about 30 to 60 seconds.

About 45 minutes to an hour after the administration of the vaccine m, my cheeks became red, hot, and swollen. There were also hives. I took Benadryl which stopped the spreading but it did not go away. I had shortness of breath, and by about 6:00 it was hard to breath when lying down. I did an albuterol treatment with my nebulizer. It helped but it took much longer than usual. There were was about 30 minutes that I found my epipen and was going to the ED if it got worse. My breathing improved. The red changed to pink but was still swollen and tight 7 hours later. The second one of Benadryl helped get rid of most of the pinkness. When I woke up this morning, I had a little bit of a wheezy cough that I didn?t have yesterday. My daily Zyrtec and singular helped that a little. I have new hives along my jawline this morning that are very minor but they do itch. The redness and swelling was similar to reactions I?ve gotten when I drink a beer or have eaten soft shell crab, but typically Benadryl will clear that up and it doesn?t linger for so long. This was more aggressive. My side effects at this point are minor, but I have a call in to my allergist to see if I should be doing anything different and questions about the second dose.

got Shot about 8:30; immediately after getting the shot, I had the same feeling as my breath being taken away and the taste (just like after getting an IV cleaned with saline). Nurses told me to sit up front to be observed and waited 30 minutes. After the 30 minutes, I began getting very warm (went outside to get fresh air); went to vehicle, took mask off face, was still feeling very hot, Face was bright red, lips were very red (looked like I had on makeup and I didn't have any on). Took 4 children's Benadryl (dissolvable). Went back to work. redness started to go away. Throughout the morning, I continued having the feeling of breath being taken away and the taste. It wasn't as bad, so I didn't worry. My lips were not too swollen, face was still swollen. I have had MANY reactions to food allergies and didn't wanna "cause" a scene. By 1:30, I was in a meeting trying to talk and my tongue started to feel thick and it was harder to talk. I took 2 adult Benadryl's and tried to work some more to keep my mind off of the reaction. I ended up being very tired and laid down. I slept till about 5pm and seemed okay after. Nothing else was done. My muscle was sore, no other symptoms.

Patient felt faint nearly immediately after but said she wasn't having problems breathing. She was told to breath deeply and she quickly started feeling "a little better" so she was helped to a chair with arm rests in the room. She said she had an orange in her bag, so she started eating her orange. Just a minute later she said she was going to pass out, so the pharmacist caught her. He held her up in the chair and tried to revive her for a few moments but noticed that the blood was draining from her face and her lips were turning blue so yelled for one of his technicians to call 911 and the other to grab an epi pen. He then lowered her to the floor in case he needed to begin to resuscitate while the technician brought him the epipen. While lowering her she urinated on herself. As the pharmacist went to check her vitals before administering the epipen and beginning cpr if necessary the patient suddenly gasped once and her eyes opened widely, but not continue to breath. Upon inspection in her mouth there was a piece of orange near the bottom of the throat. The pharmacist asked if she was choking and she did not response at all, but did not start visibly breathing either. So the pharmacist swiped the piece of orange out quickly, in case it was either previously lodged or patient would have to be resuscitated. She did not seem to enjoy this and this seemed to wake her up and she quietly gasped not choking. She started to quickly improve and admitted that she was feeling better, and had passed out before after getting blood drawn but never after a shot so didn't mention this. While this was happening a police office was going through the drive through so the technician called him in for assistance and he arrived around this time. He asked her a few questions like "what's her name, who's president, how many quarters are in a dollar" which she was able to answer. She said she was mostly embarrassed and was feeling much better. She sat up in the chair again about the time the emts came in. The checked her out, but she didn't want to go to the Emergency Room. She was driven home by her father. I called her later around 6 pm that night and she said she was feeling totally fine and I advised her to please call her PCP and discuss this incident with him or her.

Within an hour of receving the vaccine, I became dizzy, had face tingling and arm tingling and felt mentally foggy. As the day progressed, I felt a fullness in my throat and fatigue. Over the next week, the dizziness became worse, I experienced intense headaches and shortness of breath for several days. I had difficulty sleeping and vivid dreams. I have had thyroiditis twice in my life after giving birth to my 2 children with similar dizziness and throat fullness. I decided to contact my doctors and had my thyroid levels checked. My TSH was abnormal and my doctor thinks I could be having another episode of thyroiditis. My menstrual cycle arrived a week early. Following this, I continued to have dizziness, throat fullness, and intense headaches. I developed sore breasts and breast discharge as well as in increase in frequency of urination. I decided to postpone the second shot until I was feeling better as past episodes of thryoiditis took about 2 months to resolve. My next menstrual period was a week late, also accompanied by mood swings, breast tenderness and intense headaches. SIx weeks later, I continue to experience occasional dizziness and throat fullness and increased urination. Prior to the vaccine, I was feeling fine and it seems like the vaccine triggered some kind of hormone/endocrine response in my body. I have not had reactions to any vaccines prior to this. I am quite hesitant to receive the second vaccine and am wondering if I should wait a period of time and try something different such as the Johnson and Johnson one. I? not quite sure what in the Pfizer vaccine ( perhaps the mRNA?) could have triggered this reaction in my thyroid and endocrine system. and would appreciate guidance on what to do next as I would like to be fully protected from COVID-19 but do not want to endure these unusual side effects.

While walking to the observation area after I got the vaccine, I became lightheaded and short of breath. I needed assistance to a chair. Things began to spin, voices sounded far away, I felt like it was hard to breathe and my throat began to close up. I felt really hot - my clothes were soaked with sweat and my husband (and the paramedics) said I was bright red. I genuinely believed I would pass out. When I sat for a minute with my head back I felt more stable. Then I felt like I had pins and needles all over my body, worst in my feet. The symptoms felt like they came in waves - once I sat down I felt less dizzy, but still struggled with my breathing. When one thing got better, another would intensify. After a couple of minutes my breathing felt much better and I got a metal taste in my mouth and my feet really hurt with pins/needles. The whole thing lasted about 8 minutes, when although I felt tired and my clothes were wet, my body felt safe and almost back to normal. I was surrounded by nurses and paramedics who monitored my vital signs and had medicine nearby, but never administered anything. My body recovered on its own and after 15 minutes I felt great and I gathered my things and drove home. The EMT who said goodbye encouraged me to call my doctor if I felt I was getting worse.

Short Summary: DVT followed by Multiple Bilateral Pulmonary Embolisms (significant blood clots in both lungs). Context: After the first vaccine (about a week before my second vaccine), I self diagnosed myself with a calf injury due to extreme pain in my calf that felt like a continuous cramp. The extreme pain lasted until my second shot (about a week). When going for my second shot, I reported a rash with hives on my lower abdomen that had appeared within five hours of my first shot, so they requested I stay a little longer for observation. That night I began having some breathing difficulties, but assumed they were to be expected. The breathing difficulties continued to get worse until my nurse practitioner told me to go directly to the nearest ER (2/16/21), where I was officially diagnosed with multiple bilateral pulmonary embolisms. I was admitted to healthcare facility for 24-48 hours, until an EKG revealed heart abnormalities that caused them to use a physician's transport to move me to another unit. I was discharged from the hospital on 2/2/21 after I stabilized from heparin shots, avoiding more invasive procedures. I have been in ongoing recovery since then, receiving ongoing care from a hematologist and pulmonologist. A little extra context for you - I arrived to the hospital with diabetic ketoacidosis and have an endocrinologist since hospitalization that has diagnosed me with Type 1 Diabetes (previously misdiagnosed as type 2 - I'm now on insulin which is controlling my blood glucose well).

The doctor administered the shot and the hard time breathing and coughing stopped like 30 seconds after. However, she is still having a hard time to breathe.

On day three after my Covid vaccine, after experiencing mostly mild side effects for the first two days, I experienced a severe episode of tachycardia while walking uphill. This is a walk I do three times a week and have never felt this way before. I couldn't catch my breath, and my heart rate remained abnormally elevated for another fifteen minutes. I walked down the hill and spoke to my doctor, who said it was likely a vaccine side effect and I should rest for the day. I continued to experience episodes of tachycardia, with heart rate in the 130s, throughout the rest of the day. I was short of breath just walking to the bathroom. My doctor had me come in and performed an EKG, which was normal. I continued having these symptoms the rest of the day, until eventually my heart rate stabilized after 9pm. The next day I felt very tired, but no longer experienced the tachycardia. I had a follow up at my clinic and another normal EKG. Then yesterday evening, which was day 5 after the vaccine (technically day 6 maybe), I was walking my dog on a flat surface, taking my time, and I became short of breath, with pressure and tightness in my chest. I was unable to get a deep breath for another 30 minutes. Today, day 6/7 after my vaccine, I am fatigued, and continue to feel pressure and tightness in my chest throughout the day. I have asthma, and this feels different, though I have been using my inhaler to try to open up the tightness I'm experiencing. I also continue to have stomach pain and diarrhea since day one after receiving the vaccine. I also had that with the first vaccine three weeks ago--stomach pain and diarrhea.

The rash to left chest around her Remodulin catheter line (dermatitis contact previously reported) was also reportedly itchy at night. On an unknown date in 2021, the patient's oxygen saturations dropped to 85% on room air (oxygen saturation decreased). The patient continued to have rash on her chest (dermatitis contact previously reported). On 29Jan2021, 10 months 27 days after initiating IV Remodulin, the patient was in the emergency room due to increased shortness of breath, pressure on her chest, edema in her feet and a weight gain of 2 pounds overnight. All the tests were negative but during walking test, the patient's oxygen saturation dropped to 85% on room air. The patient was advised to wear mask continuously. 2 weeks after receiving the first COVID-19 vaccine, the patient had heart palpitations, shortness of breath, and chest pressure 2 weeks after receiving the first COVID-19 vaccine (dyspnoea and chest discomfort previously reported). The patient went to the ER (emergency room), had worked up and was seen by a pulmonologist, nothing was found, and the patient was released home. The prescribing physician's practice ordered her to wear oxygen (O2) continuously. The patient said that she only wears it when she leaves the house and at night and was fine. She felt this episode was related to the COVID-19 vaccine and was not receiving the second dose. The patient stated that her physician had took her off the Opsumit due to shortness of breath (dyspnoea previously reported). The events 'blood clot in neck', 'shortness of breath (dyspnea)', 'pressure on her chest', 'edema to her feet', 'weight gain of two pounds overnight' and 'heart palpitations', resulted in emergency room visit. The event, 'diarrhea', was controlled with diphenoxylate and atropine (LOMOTIL). The patient had a walking distance test on an unspecified date in 2021 (results were not provided) and weight was 209 lbs on an unspecified date in 2021. The events, shortness of breath (dyspnea)', 'pressure on her chest' and 'heart palpitations', was reported as serious (medically significant). The events rash on chest, and rash on chest possibly due to tape (dermatitis contact) had not resolved while the outcome of the rest of the events was unknown.

I had my 2nd vaccine on 4/5 @ 4:30pm. I felt slightly tired afterwards and noticed that I couldn't stop yawning. After getting home, I ate dinner and went to bed at around 9pm. At around 2:30am, I woke up feeling an intense heaviness on my chest as if something was sitting on top of me and crushing my upper chest. I stood up and had to immediately crouch over due to the intensity of the pain and heaviness. My husband had to hold me up and suggested going to the hospital. I was terrified and just wanted to wait and catch my breath. It was hard to believe what was happening and I did not want to go to the hospital. After about 5 mins, the intensity of the pain subsided and I was able to breathe normally. I was able to go back to sleep with minor discomfort and woke up at around 6am without any symptoms. About 2 weeks later, I started to have chest pain, which I had never experienced before. I tried to attribute it to all sorts of things, but it didn't go away so on 5/1, I went to City MD to have an EKG and chest X Ray. Both came out normal and they told me to follow up with a cardiologist for due diligence. I followed up with a cardiologist and they also ran an EKG and X Ray with normal results. Depsite normal results, I thought it was important to report this because I am a healthy and fit 42 year old with no prior heart history and found it uncanny that I had my first "heart event" within 12 hours of my 2nd vaccine.

The morning following my injection I had very bad left armpit pain and I could actually feel a swollen lymph node. This pain was worse than the injection site pain. As the morning went on I developed a heaviness in my chest-which was worse when I took a deep breath-and palpitations. I also had all the typical symptoms like lightheadedness, body aches, fatigue, nausea, a low grade fever and headache. All the symptoms resolved after 1-2 days except for the chest heaviness and occasional palpitations. After 6 days of no relief of the chest symptoms I went to my local clinic. My heart rate was elevated but the Dr there told me I did not have a PE based on my symptoms. He said to go to the ER if I wanted to have a CT scan of my chest to rule out a PE for peace of mind. The next morning I saw my primary doctor since I didn't get any real answers of what my symptoms were. Again my heart rate was elevated. She did an EKG which did not show any palpitations but she diagnosed my symptoms as peri/myocarditis and I was prescribed 5-10 days of naproxen.

This is an addendum to a previous report I filed (VAERS ID: 1446698, E-Report Number: 578250). My reaction continued and got much worse after I filed the other report. About an hour after I received the first shot of the Pfizer Covid vaccine, I started to have an allergic reaction. I felt very dizzy and weak, my throat started to close up, and my heart rate was all over the place. I took some Benadryl and some other antihistamines and that reversed the allergic reaction. I didn't need my EpiPen. About 6-7 hours after I got vaccinated, I started to experience a strange neurological event. It was like I was extremely drunk. I was slurring my speech, my vision went dark & blurry, I was very confused, couldn't make the right words, couldn't remember how old I was. My friend called 911 and sent paramedics to my house. They assessed me for a stroke or heart attack and said my heart rate & blood pressure were very unstable, but it didn't appear that I was having a stroke or heart attack at the time. I refused to go to the hospital as it was 4th of July, very late at night, and I was confused about how I was going to get home (I live very rurally and didn't have a partner who could have come with me). The next day I went to the hospital. They said something was going on with my heart and referred me for follow up care. They said I had an abnormal EKG. The ER doctor said I did appear to have an allergic reaction and advised me not to get the second shot. He could not explain the neurological event. He said it could have been a TIA or something similar, but there would be no way to evaluate that unless I had a brain scan at the time of the reaction. He advised me to follow up with my PCP and a cardiologist and any other specialists I may need. It has been nearly 3 weeks since I had the vaccine injury and I am still having heart problems. I am waiting on follow-up care with a cardiologist, but they are booked 2 months out so I don't know what's going on. I have palpitations several times a day, and shortness of breath. Sometimes it's very difficult to breathe. These episodes come on suddenly and will resolve, but will happen again throughout the day. Sometimes at night my heart will be pounding so hard it wakes me up. Sometimes if I'm lying in bed, I can see my heart pounding so hard it shakes my chest and abdomen. This is new and has not happened to me before. It's worse on exertion but happens when I'm sitting or lying down. I don't know what this condition is, but I did not have it before I got vaccinated. It doesn't appear to be myo- or pericarditis, as there is no severe chest pain or fever. I think it's something else, but so far nobody can tell me what it is.

I felt tightness in my chest/lungs and it hurt to breath and finally after a week of this, I went and saw my PCP. I discussed what has happened and he said that he did not recommend that I get the second covid shot but if I did that I should wait the full 6 weeks. I was put on a steroid and a nebulizer.

About 5 minutes after the shot, I started to feel a tightness in my throat. It lasted a couple of minutes and then passed. Then about 45 minutes after I started to feel a heaviness/ache in my upper chest. This feeling continued for days. Around day four I began to have a feeling of great pressure in my throat, particularly when swallowing. I noticed that my heartrate was elevated, but that might have been because the feeling was very stressful. The feeling would increase when I turned my head to the side or put my chin down.This feeling persisted for 3 days. After three days the feeling changed slightly and started feeling more like the sensation one gets when you have food stuck in your throat. As I type this, it is 8 days after the vaccine and I still feel this sensation in my throat.

While patient was receiving her second dose of the Pfizer brand Covid-19 vaccination (at 14:50), she mentioned to me that she had a sustained local reaction to her first dose. Her arm had a hard, red, hot spot for approximately a week. At this time I told her we would like her to stay under observation for 30 Min instead of the normal 15 min. At approximately 25 min post vaccination, the pt reported the following: "arm felt heavy, both arms did, but more so the affected arm, instant headache, sore neck, vision went fuzzy, breathing wasn't difficult but felt labored, throat felt like it was closing/congested, rash on the inside of the affected arm".   Pt stated that her heart felt like it was "pounding".   VS: 162/96, 99% RA, HR in the 70's.   Patient was administered 50ml IM diphenhydramine and monitored for 90 minutes in the clinic area. Dr. was consulted and also spoke with the pt, advising her to continue with OTC diphenhydramine once at home.   The symptoms resolved after approximately 40 minutes. By 17:00 the patient was deemed stable to go home with the instructions to go immediately to ED should any further Sx present. It was verified that she did not live alone and would have someone with her that could assist.   Pt was subsequently followed up with a phone call on the next day by RN who relayed that she was very tired, but no other complications.

2230 feeling of unease, body aches, site arm tingling, general mild aches 0220 awoke from sleep choking, having difficulty breathing, felt very SOB, worse with exertion or trying to speak, great difficulty swallowing and speaking even in brief words. Took 50mg of Benadryl PO and went to the ED, about a 15 minute car ride. Had tingling and numbness of the tongue and back of throat by arrival but still able to breath with focus. Exertion of just walking into the ED greatly increased the SOB. Was triaged, Benadryl starting to help, was able to speak a little better, 3-4 words without too much SOB caused. Was walked to a room, SOB milder with that exertion. Seen by Dr. Given IV Sol-u-Medrol and 50mg Benadryl. Was observed on cardiac monitor/Q15VS for a few hours and discharged home around 5:30. Given Rx of Prednisone 20mg -3tabs x2 days, 2tabs x5 days all once a days and told to take 50mg of Benadryl Q4H for the next 24 hours at least and to return prn.

I also continued my normal HS antihistamines. I had SOB on exertion, progressively better from the 6th-10th with it mostly resolved to yesterday. Body aches have continued but also progressively better. Yeasterday1/12/21 the Rx of prednisone was completed and I did have some mild swelling /tingling in the throat/face/mouth return in the evening, took Benadryl 50mg again and inhaler used.

On Mar, 25th , around 4.30 pm I got vaccinated. I went back home. I ate my summer and Took Tyelenol as I was tired and arm was little sore. I slept around 7.30 pm and got up at 7 am. I felt weakness and after I had my break fast , my body pains started. Every muscle ached and every joint ached. I had weakness and lethargy. I took tyelenol extra strength so the pain was subsiding . I had temperature 100.3 since Fri , Mar 25th. When the tyelenol was wearing off the pains used to become horrible. I was not able to move and I was on my bed bed most of the time. On 28th I even tried Ibuprofen as Tyelenol was not helping a lot with pains but Ibuprofen did not work at all. I sent messages to my dr who thought these side effects are expected. On Mon she replied if the side effects did not resolve I can go to Immediate Care. My arm was sore but that soreness was nothing compared to body aches I had. I called off from work on Fri and Sat. My employer wanted return to work clearance. I went to discuss with Immediate care doctor as I had same weakness and tiredness and little walking was making me breathe heavily. As it was almost the end of 4th day after I got my vaccine they tested me for Covid and my results were negative. I still have to be in quarantine for 7 days from yesterday. I was tested Covid positive in Mar 2020 around mar 24th. I had same horrible pains but had high temperature like 1049.8 and with tyelenol it was 102.5. I am scared to take the second dose that might trigger same reaction. I suffered a lot like people suffered after 2nd dose. First dose is sensitizing dose but I showed such reaction that means my body recognized the threat and began to fight in first dose then what is the need of second dose that is actually a booster dose. My main concern is I might feel the same way how I felt now. I am still weak and cannot perform my daily activities like cooking and I have 4 kids aged 7- 12 yrs age.

I was breathless and extremely exhausted for several weeks prior to the most extreme symptoms presented. I started feeling excruciating chest pain so much so that I thought I was having a heart attack, could not sleep at night because the pain grew increasingly worse, radiating pain down my arms, and it was extremely difficult to even complete sentences I was so winded. As these symptoms progressed I thought they were an injury from yard work and wrote it off as costochondritis and suffered. Eventually I was at work and could not even get a sentence out without extreme pain and breathlessness. I was taken to urgent care where they instructed me to go to the emergency room at hospital. There I was given a series of tests. I believe I had a echocardiogram where all my findings were normal. Then they did a blood test where they look for clotting as they were concerned about a blood clot. That was a slightly elevated number which then brought me to a CT scan with contrast. This is where they found that it was not a blood clot but pericarditis. They followed up with a ultrasound of my heart where they saw the sack around my heart inflamed with fluid. The first question I asked the doctor is could this be related to my vaccine which I just completed. The more I learned about pericarditis, the longer I realize how long I have been suffering with breathlessness. I dismissed it for such a long time because I had recently had another baby and was doing a lot of heavy lifting carrying her around as well as mask wearing as a teacher. Because of the mask I dismiss my breathlessness and ignored it for a long time.

Received 1st injection on lunch break around noon. Went back to work and a few hours later I felt light pressure on left side beneath left breast. The pressure became worse and felt tight. It became hard to breathe. I kept trying to take breaths but could not get enough air. It was frightening so I went and told one of the doctors I work with what I was feeling. He told another doctor. They both told me I may be experiencing anxiety as I wouldn?t be able to feel reactions from the vaccination so soon. I can?t tell you exactly how long this tight/pressure hard-to-breathe feeling lasted but it was enough to make me lightheaded. It was enough to make me call the number on the Pfizer booklet they gave me but the number took me to a hotline and it was confusing and there wasn?t a clear option to talk to someone to tell them what I was experiencing. I also had to continue working. I was so happy when my chest started to gradually feel less pressure. Then breathing became easier. I was tired after I went home and experienced soreness at the site of injection after approXimately 5 pm. This was serious and now that I had a abnormal EKG and am scheduled for an echocardiogram, makes me wonder if what I felt was due to the vaccination.

Right after the vaccination, within 15 minutes, I was feeling dizzy. I went home I started having difficulty breathing, hyperventilation, dizziness, nausea, severe headaches and anxiety. I used my pulse ox and my pulse rate was very high around 125-130. I also got tinnitus. The next day, I developed a tick in my hands and facial ticks. My hands were also very shaky. A week after I got the shot, I went to the doctor and my BP was 145/90. My BP is normally low because I have history of POTS. I had neuropathy in my extremities (hands and feet) , headache, dizziness, extreme brain fog, could not concentrate, anxiety, extreme fatigue, sleeping all the time, tinnitus, light sensitivity and mild arthritits in my hands. This seem to be my exacerbation of my prior lyme's disease symptoms and/or my autoimmune system. I had some IV fluids at the doctors office and was referred to a neurologist. All my doctors agree that the vaccine have triggered my autoimmune system to go into overdrive. It has taken me 2 months to recover and feel better again. I still have fatigue, tinnitus, and light sensitivity.

About 10:15 my face was starting to swell and I was short of breath and 10:30 they took me to ER - and gave me Cortisol shot. And IV fluids. And I was in ER for two hours. They wrote me a prescription for six days for 2 prednisone for every day for one week. The PA saw me at the ER and he prescribed. I went home but couldn't drive home because I couldn't see straight so got a ride home. They tested my O2 levels before they left me. Oxygen was 96. My blood pressure was down to 140/95 - so it was down but still elevated. I still had facial swelling for 3 days. But after three or four days it resolved the face swelling. Had a weakness from the shot and still itching but nothing like it was that day still after the four days. Dr. told me I couldn't get second dose. It was an anaphalactic reaction. Dr - prescribed me an EpiPen in case I have another bad reaction to anything.

I?m still not sure what to make of my reaction. Started to feel ?out of body?, slow and had left-sided chest pain at around 8 minutes after administration. Then flagged down a nurse. They checked my blood pressure at 196/110 (first one may have been 210/110)- I was sort of disoriented. Sat there for about an hour with repeated blood pressure checks, until my pulse went from 118 down to 90. They let me go home at 170/100. I do t have hypertension. Then went and laid down in my office nearby and my left upper arm turned bright red and became painful and slightly swollen. Took five hours for my blood pressure to drop to 118/80- my normal is 114/78. Still have weird chest pain and some SOB with exertion (not normal for me).

Starting on February 24, 2021, I started to have shortness of breath. This slowly got worse until on March 2, 2021 I was unable to breathe in all the way and was getting a sharp pain in my side/back when I tried to breathe in more than half way. I then went to the emergency room recognizing the symptom as likely being a pulmonary embolism, as I had experienced one four years earlier. It was, in fact, a PE. I was in the hospital for five days as they treated the clots with blood thinners. I slowly got my breathing more back to normal and was discharged. They are still runnying myriad tests to try to determine the cause or causes, but I thought it wise to report here in case the vaccine is a factor. I received my second dose on 2/26/21, a few days before I went to the hospital but my symptoms started a few days before that.

After the first injection, I noticed mild mouth tingling, but nothing else, did not report as it was so mild and it was more notable in retrospect. A week after the first injection developed vertigo for the first time in my life. This lasted about a week had mostly resolved when I got the second dose. Immediately upon receiving the second dose I felt faint. I went to the observation area and when the feeling got stronger, reported it. My blood pressure was taken and although I always have normal blood pressure, it was extremely high - 195/100. My heart was racing. I was observed for longer because of this, and was asked to lie down. The faint feeling and high blood pressure lasted 30 min, at which time it started to improve and was sent home. I persisted in having bouts of feeling faint (but never fainting) in the days and weeks following, joined with shortness of breath which started the second day after the second injection. I also had the normal fever, aches and pains for 4 days. It is now a month after the second injection, and while the faintness and vertigo are mostly gone, I have persistent shortness of breath. Prior to the vaccine I had an albuterol inhaler that I would use 1-5 times a year for allergies. Almost never used it. I began having to use it multiple times daily after the second dose of the vaccine. I am not on a steroid inhaler. I have never had shortness of breath like this before. I was examined at the doctors office, not much can be seen that is wrong. An allergist believes that I did not have an allergy because my blood pressure was high instead of low as in anaphylaxis.

Five minutes after injection, felt nauseated, face went cold and tingly, started rapid breathing, blood pressure elevated, felt very parched, hands tingly, thought I was going to pass out. This happened with the first Covid vaccine shot as well, so I lied down immediately after this shot, but it didn't help. I've never had this reaction to any other vaccine. Symptoms improved after 10-15 minutes, but I had to move very slowly. Felt very parched the rest of the evening and now as well (the next day). Had hallucinations of bright lights in my right peripheral vision that evening (which I've never had).

Within twelve hours I had nausea chills, headache and a cough. Those symptoms lasted three days. I ended up with a reactive airway cough which lasted for a week and a half. It was a dry barking cough and I had trouble catching my breath. I sometimes get a reactive cough and it was similar. Some of this is because I was a preemie baby. I went to an instant care. I was given a course of Prednisone and it cleared up. I had the second dose and did not have any long lasting side effects.

high blood pressure/blood pressure 167/93/Blood pressure 144/95; Racing pulse/pulse was 177/pulse was 163/Pulse 116/ rapid pulse; Her heart was pounding; she couldn't catch her breath; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient herself). A 43-year-old non-pregnant female patient received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE, Formulation: Solution for injection, Lot number: EL8983, Expiration date: Unknown), via an unspecified route of administration in left arm on 01Feb2021 at 08:45 AM (at the age of 43-year-old) as a single dose for COVID-19 immunization. The patient's medical history included mitral valve prolapse (diagnosed at the age of 18). No known allergies. Concomitant medication included medroxyprogesterone acetate (DEPO PROVERA) from an unspecified date in 2020 and ongoing, received in two weeks within the vaccination. She took a Depo Provera shot on Saturday 30Jan2021, but she has been on this medication for a year now since either Feb2020 or Mar2020. The lot number and expiration date was unknown, since she has discarded the packaging. She usually picks up the drug, and her neighbour was a nurse, she usually just gives her the injection, since COVID has started. The patient previously received flu vaccine on an unspecified date in 2020 for immunisation and experienced feeling bad, didn't feel good. The patient previously received flu vaccine on an unspecified date for immunisation and experienced thrown up, chills, fever, body was sensitive. Caller was queried she if she had had any issues with vaccine in the past, caller states that she takes the flu vaccine every year, her body was sensitive to the flu vaccine, this year she had no issue, but last year (on an unspecified date in 2020) after the flu vaccine she started feeling bad, didn't feel good, years before she has thrown up and had chills and fever. Her body must be sensitive. However she has never had the heart issues. The patient did not receive other vaccine in four weeks. The patient was not diagnosed with COVID-19 prior vaccination. The patient has not been tested with COVID-19 post vaccination. It was reported that, she was calling about the COVID-19 vaccine. She received the vaccine yesterday at 8:45 AM, then at 12:30 PM she began to have a rapid pulse and high blood pressure. She went to the ER because of her pulse and blood pressure. In the ER, she received an IV to calm the heart, she doesn't know what was in the IV. They did blood work and told her the blood work was fine, and the chest X-ray was fine. She went to a Cardiologist today, she does have a valve prolapse, but she has had no issues with that for many years. She states that her body had a weird response to the covid vaccine. Caller states that she need Pfizer to know what happened because it was real scary. She has her first dose on 01Feb2021 at 8:45 AM. The rapid pulse began while she was sitting at the computer working. Her heart was pounding on 01Feb2021, she couldn't catch her breath on 01Feb2021, and so she was a school teacher, so then she went to find the nurse, and even in that she was having trouble catching her breath to be able to even talk. The nurse took her into the office, and she put a pulse ox monitor on her finger. At 12:25 PM her pulse was 177, at 12:30 PM her pulse was 163 with blood pressure 167/93, at 12:40 PM pulse 116, blood pressure 144/95. The nurse then called the ambulance because it was alarming. Caller states that doesn't know what her readings were in the ambulance. She went to the ER at (institute name withheld) and they did an EKG, 2 of them. The regular ER doctor was not super helpful, he said that she was okay to take the second vaccine. Caller did not agree with him thinking that the 1st covid vaccine sent her to the ER. HCP: He was at (institute name withheld) Cardiology. He did an EKG today (on an unspecified date in Feb2021), she doesn't know results at the moment. He didn't say if it was normal or abnormal. They did an echocardiogram, she was also assuming nothing was alarming or she would have been told the results. He listened to the heart and said it sounded fine, there was nothing he could detect. She did have a rapid heart rate at the cardiologist office, both pulse and blood pressure were elevated. He said that she was going to do a stress test in a week, the doctor was also going to see what the blood work from the ER yesterday looks like, he would also check the thyroid. He told her that next week she would also wear a heart monitor. She was at the doctor's office today at 10:30 AM. Her biggest concern was which she talked to the cardiologist today about was the 2nd dose of the vaccine. She doesn't want a repeat of this event. The cardiologist said that she was supposed to get the second dose in 3 weeks, let's do testing and see where we stand. Her 2nd dose was scheduled for 22Feb2021. She was concerned this happened. She doesn't know what could be done. This was bizarre. In the ER, the doctor said this wouldn't be considered an allergic reaction. Caller wonders what this was considered then. The ER doctors thing was that this didn't happen in first 15 to 30 minutes of receiving the vaccine, and that would be considered an allergic reaction if it did. She wants to know if this was an allergic reaction. Enquired was this allergic reaction. The adverse events resulted in emergency room/department or urgent care. She has no results for the tests that were performed at the ER, she was just told the chest X-ray was normal and so was the blood work, but she doesn't know what the blood work involved. They were looking for blood clots at the ER. She was not admitted into the hospital, she was sent home the same day. She has had no positive COVID test prior to the vaccine. She also has had no symptoms, and therefore no reason to get tested either. On 01Feb2021, the patient underwent lab tests and procedure which included chest X-ray: Normal, pulse rapid: 177 (at 12:25 PM), pulse rapid: 163 (at 12:30 PM), blood pressure: 167/93 (at 12:30 PM), pulse rapid: 116 (at 12:40 PM), blood pressure: 144/95 (at 12:40 PM). On an unspecified date in Feb2021, the patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included blood work: Unknown results (the doctor was also going to see what the blood work from the ER yesterday looks like. They were looking for blood clots at the ER), EKG: Unknown results, EKG: Unknown results, Echocardiogram: Unknown results. The patient was treated with IV for the adverse events. The outcome of the events she couldn't catch her breath, her heart was pounding was unknown and not recovered for the other events.

A 43-years-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), dose 2 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in arm left on 22Mar2021 09:00 at the age of 43-years-old (Lot Number: EN6204) as single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Historical vaccine included BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) as first dose on 01Mar2021 at the age of 43-years-old for COVID-19 immunization (Lot Number: EN6198, Anatomical Location: left arm); started period couple days early after first vaccine from Mar2021, caller reported she got the first Pfizer BioNTech vaccine and shortly afterwards she started her period, which was a couple days early, but it didn't stop for 10 days. It was really, really heavy bleeding along with clots and things. Medical history was none. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. The caller asked if prolonged bleeding with periods was a side effect of the vaccine. She stated she had both doses of the vaccine and had this issue with both. She stated she knows there has been other woman who have come forward saying they have these things. At the time, her doctor had not heard anything about any reactions to it. Her iron has been low and she got tested for anemia and was anemic now. She has had her second period since the vaccine and was on day 16 of period. It was still going on strong and she was wondering if this was something that Pfizer has heard of happening after the vaccine. She had first BionTech vaccine on 01Mar2021 and her period started a day or two after that. It had gotten worse, but did subside. She was normally super regular and super normal with her periods. Stated she did have another small period in between the first and second vaccine, but that only lasted for a day, which was really weird for her and did not usually happen. Had the second dose 3 weeks after the first dose on 22Mar2021 and a couple days after that her period started and she was now on her period and on Day 16 and it's gotten worse. This one stared early May, 03May2021 and was also still going strong and really wants this to be resolved since going on her honeymoon soon. Caller clarified event of periods. She had been checked for anemia in Apr2021 and told she was anemic. Has also gone to specialist to see what's going on. They suggested a biopsy to rule out that there was nothing else going on. If nothing else works they are talking about doing an ablation to stop the bleeding or a partial hysterectomy, where they just take the uterus, since they know that's causing her anemia and since the bleeding won't stop long enough for her to get her blood supply back up where she needs it. Has not had any energy and it's hard to breath with no oxygen in her blood. Physician office was for period still ongoing and strong, really heavy bleeding with clots, iron low, anemic, no energy, hard to breath with low oxygen in blood, saw a specialist.

I was dizzy and I checked my bp and it was 70/40 i stopped talking my bp meds, drank water and my Bp came back up and I was fine. About a week later, i was short of breath. I called my asthma dr who ordered steroids. That did not make a difference. I never really got better. I figured the vaccine triggered my asthma. In march, I felt like i was going to pass out as I was walking into work. I went to work and was short of breath the whole night I called my doctor, I kept taking albuterol and steroid thinking it was asthma related .I worked that Sunday and went to the Dr on Wednesday who sent me to the hospital. I've been on anti coagulants since then. They thought it was a female cancer, or clotting problem. I have never taken birth control in my life so i had no participating factors. There are a few labs that cannot be done until after I am off of anticoagulants. These clots are completely unexplained and I have changed nothing aside from receiving the COVID vaccine.

In the week following my 2nd vaccine, I started to feel shortness of breath. This was worse when walking up and down steps, and when I laid down, but was pretty consistent. I developed a slight cough. I felt like I could not get a great breath. I was also experiencing an irregular heart rhythm, and was monitoring my heart rate because it seemed to be fast on occasion. It felt like palpitations. This continued for a few weeks, until I contacted my doctor, who sent me to the emergency room. The ER was concerned about side effects from the vaccine, but was thinking more about blood clots. I had an EKG, CT scan, and bloodwork done. Everything was clear. However, I do feel that my symptoms match those explained related to myocarditis, and was not checked for that. My symptoms are slowly improving.

My left armpit lymph node remains enlarged but not as painful. Now almost 72 hours out, the only residual effects are a decreasing but enlarged left armpit lymph node, improving swollen/reddened deltoid, decreased appetite, and decreased energy level.

Severe allergic reaction is the known risk for the product. The underlying predisposing condition of allergies to multiple materials may put the patient at high risk of allergic reaction to vaccine. 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.

Like a spider bite after 7 minutes, could feel the vaccine run into my shoulder, then my neck and enter my nasal cavity. At which time it seemed to dry up what ever nasal mucus I had. Almost immediately I felt dizzy and light headed. Then came the my heart beating faster. My breathing quickened cold sweats began with the palms of my hands. This continued for about 3-4 minutes. When my heart/ blood pressure seemed to go back to normal, I sat for an additional 15 minutes. I had 3 more incidents that day of dizzy and lightheadness throughout the day but not to the extent of the initial, almost passing out, spell. For 12 hours after injection, other than the typical reported symptoms of sore arm, fatigue which I did experience, i felt like I was in a haze, similar to when you have a fever for 11 hours. And oddly, almost immediately the haze and fatigue lifted. No other adverse reactions after that.

EKG changes (ST depression); I started feeling short of breath; tachycardia; fatigue; upper back/left scapula pain; upper back/left scapula pain; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable Physician (patient herself). A 44-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 mRNA vaccine), dose 2 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in the left arm at age 44 years on 27Jan2021 15:00 (Batch/Lot Number: EL3246) as single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included alopecia and known allergies to peanuts. Patient is not pregnant. Patient had not had COVID prior vaccination. Concomitant medication(s) included ethinylestradiol, norgestimate (ORTHO TRI-CYCLEN), spironolactone, VIT D, zinc, and biotin, taken on unspecified dates for an unspecified indication. Patient previously took dose 1 of BNT162B2 lot number= EL3246 on 08Jan2021 with administration time at 04:15 pm, vaccine location on the left arm. On 29Jan2021, 2 days after the vaccine, patient started feeling short of breath, tachycardia, fatigue, and upper back/left scapula pain. Patient thought she had some side effect that eventually would go away. By 02Feb2021, she felt worsening tachycardia, fatigue and shortness of breath. Patient went to (Hospital name withheld) and they did a COVID 19 test on Feb2021. The test was negative but they found that she was very tachycardic and EKG changes (ST depression). Then, patient underwent a cardiac catheterism and a CT angio of the chest and both were negative. Patient was discharged 24 hours later still tachycardic up to are of 110s. As outpatient, patient underwent echocardiogram and was negative as well. Patient saw her cardiologist on 19Mar2021 and it seems that the tachycardia resolved along with her fatigue and upper back pain. All these symptoms gradually improve over time. She still have the ST depressions on her EKG but she was asymptomatic. No one was sure if she had any sort of immunologic reaction to the vaccine. AE resulted in doctor or other healthcare professional office/clinic visit, emergency room/department or urgent care and hospitalization. Treatment was heparin, aspirin and ticagrelor (BRILINTA). The outcome of the event EKG changes (ST depression) was not recovered, while for the rest of the events, it was recovered on 2021.; Sender's Comments: Based on the current available information and the plausible drug-event temporal association, a possible contributory role of the suspect product BNT162B2 to the development of events cannot be excluded. The case will be reassessed if additional information becomes 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.

About 4 hours after the first vaccine, numbness and tingling all over the body. Left arm went completely numb and tingling. Scalp tingling and numb. Felt like circulation was cut off. Severe Shortness of breath. Extreme feeling of adrenaline. The next day on March 14th, had extreme vaginal bleeding on day 14 of cycle. Bled for another 7 days which led to extreme anemia. The shortness of breath is every day since the first dose. Heart palpitations (heart rate went up to 190!). After the second dose on 4/03, all symptoms got worst. Left leg went completely numb the same day which I went to the emergency room for. The neurological tingling and numbness was spreading to my whole body. Arms, legs, face, ears, scalp, inside my head. I was worried for a heart attack since all of my symptoms of left arm and shoulder pain and numbness etc. I was released from the emergency room 12 hours later. I continued to have severe symptoms. The shortness of breath was so bad that I didn't sleep for 2 nights straight because my oxygen would drop. I also had severe insomnia and no appetite and lost 5 pounds in 1 week. Major adrenaline feeling. I went back to the emergency room 2 more times this week to check out my heart and lungs. All of my doctors recommended ER since they couldn't help me. My neurologist said he is getting lots of these symptoms from people post vaccine. My shortness of breath and elevated heart rate and numbness and tingling are still here and I can barely go up and down stairs without being out of breath and having a 130-140 heart rate and super low blood pressure and night sweats. It is awful.

I started having aches and I had a low grade fever that evening. And I had fatigue as well. Those symptoms carried into the next couple of days. The body aches resolved between six and eight weeks. The fever lasted over 2 months - it was consistently between 99 and 100 and could get as high as 101 - it just never went away. The fatigue has been ongoing. I was not allowed to come back on campus of the hospital until the 1st week of April - almost three months. (Back on the 18th, I lost my sense of taste and smell and that is when I went in and got tested for COVID test - and on 19th it came back positive.) I went back to the Urgent Care on the 29th because I had respiratory problems. My breathing started getting better about a week or so after that. From time to time, I still have a little breathing difficulty but it still improving.

30 minutes after receiving the first Covid-19 vaccine I was driving home when I felt a shortness of breath and my thinking became very fuzzy. No one was on the street I was driving and I panicked and dialed 911 because I thought I was about to blackout and I wanted someone to come help in case I did. The operator talked me through whatever was happening. It was decided I had had a panic attack and no ambulance was called. Nothing like this had ever happened to me before. I had a headache the rest of the day but no more panic attacks.

Initially, some dizziness, racing heart and shortness of breath within half an hour of shot. We thought it could be because of my alcohol sensitivity, which causes similar feelings when inhaled. Nurses said I could try getting fresh air. I stood outside for 15 minutes and started to feel better, except for the racing heart beat. I went home. A few hours later, the racing heart beat came back and was worse. I had mild chest pain, an itching arm and was sweating. I called a help line and was told that can happen sometimes and that it was okay to take Tylenol now, so I did. The next day my heart was racing worse. I used a blood pressure cuff and checked my pulse rate. My BP was 181/90, which is high for me, especially on the linsopril. My pulse rate was 101 BPM. I also developed a fever and a painful and itchy rash on my arm. When I called the advice line they said that was still within non-emergency range. It went on like this for two weeks. When I saw a doctor for something else, I mentioned all of it and they said I may be allergic to the shot. I was given prednisone for symptoms related to Lupus and my swollen arm. I was told I could get the second shot a f little later than originally planned. However, even with prednisone and a pulse rate back down to 88 (high for me), I continue to have chest pains off and on. The swollen arm with a weird rash lasted for 5 weeks. I have to have a scan with contrast dye to monitor my brain tumor and insurance won?t approve them doing both at once, so still trying to schedule a look at my heart.

A 45-years-old female patient received first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection, lot number and expiration date not reported), via an unspecified route of administration, on the right deltoid, on 04Jan2021 at a single dose as she wanted added protection (Covid-19 immunization). The patient medical history was not reported. The patient has no heart issues but has a family history of heart disease. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. The patient was asking if it is okay to take second dose after experiencing side effects of fever, body ache, joint pain, probably anxiety, chest heaviness 8-10h after (not wheezing, 98% O2 saturation) which returned next day and subsided. On 04Jan2021, the patient got her first dose of the Pfizer COVID Vaccine, she was one of the lucky people who had joint pain, body aches, and a fever for about 3 days.

Thursday she felt okay but the Friday again was having the pain. It is still occurring. It is mainly at night. In the day she feels okay. It is when she lays down to relax that it kicks in. It is mainly irritating but she would say it is medically significant as it has lasted for a while, almost 2 weeks now and she is still having issues. She takes 1000mg of acetaminophen (TYLENOL) to knock it out. The heaviness in her chest lasted about 1.5 hours the first day, and then went into Tuesday intermittently. The patient recovered from anxiety in Jan2021, body aches and fever on 07Jan2021, heaviness in her chest recovered on 05Jan2021, while other events were not recovered. The reporter assessed the events of Joint pain and muscle aches in her knees and lower legs, and irritating as medically significant. The reporter causality of the events for joint pain and muscle aches in her knees and lower legs, body aches, fever and heaviness in her chest were related to the suspect drug, causality for other events was not reported. Information about lot number/batch number was requested.; Sender's Comments: Based on the information currently provided, the vaccination with BNT162B2 might play a contributory role in triggering the onset of events of Joint pain and muscle aches in her knees and lower legs and irritating.

DAY 1 (Thurs. 1/14/21 - received 2nd dose of the vaccine at 8:49 am central time): 15 MINS POST SHOT: acute tingling around mouth and tongue; BP spiked and face became very flushed. Waited with nurse until 1 hour post shot. BP stayed above normal all day, as did fatigue. 12 HOURS POST SHOT: sever headaches warranting migraine medicine but I only took Tylenol and Ibuprofen since Maxalt (10 mg) can raise BP. Alternated Tylenol and Ibuprofen every 3 hours but would only get about 2 hours of relief each time. This continued through the night. DAY 2 (Fri. 1/15/21): 23 HOURS POST SHOT: Headache remained. but was lessened after taking Mucinex D. Extremely fatigued, which remained throughout the day. 24 HOURS POST SHOT (9:00 am): Saw NP at clinic, BP was normal. Was prescribed Fioricet, ESGIC 50-325-40 and advised to take it if headache returned. If ineffective after 2 hours, advised to take Maxalt 10 mg. 10:10 am: took Fioricet with no impact to headache, took Maxalt at 12:10. 28 HOURS POST SHOT: Severe, painful heartburn in my chest and upper back - Mylanta provided no relief. Headache returned and started having severe abdominal pain and shortness of breath. 29 HOURS POST SHOT (~2PM) Went to urgent care; vitals were all normal. Received fluids and "GI cocktail" containing lidocaine. Heartburn pain subsided but headaches and abdominal pain. Was advised to go to Emergency Department and did. ED ran multiple labs and ECG to rule out gallbladder, pancreas, etc. Headaches and abdominal pain at this point were excruciating and debilitating. Shortness of breath was significant. ED staff said they have seen the different reactions I was having to the vaccine, just not all together in one patient at the same time. Pain subsided after fluids with Benadryl, Toradol and Reglan. Was discharged approximately 4 hours after arrival. MD prescribed Reglan for continued headaches through the weekend. DAY 3 (Sat. 1/16/21): 48 HOURS POST SHOT: Severe headache when I awoke. Reglan did not provide relief. After two hours, took Maxalt 10 mg . Headaches and significant fatigue continued with such severity I took Maxalt as frequently as allowed per dosing instructions. I stayed in a dark room until Monday (1/18/21, Day 5), ensuring I was staying well hydrated and nourished. The fatigue was so significant that movement was very labored. It should be noted that I am a very active person and I had zero energy and missed two days of work (Fri and Mon). DAY 4: headaches were less frequent DAY5 (Mon. 1/18/21): At 3:30 PM (~126 hours post shot) - it was like someone flipped a light switch and the fatigue and headaches were gone and I felt like I was back to normal. DAYS 6-7, (Tues. and Wed 1/19-20/21) - worked a normal day at work. DAY 8 (Thu. 1/21/21): extremely fatigued again, like over the weekend, but it only lasted today. Of note, the lips and tongue tingling would come and go following the initial weekend of severe reactions. While noticeable, it was not as significant as within the first 15 mins of receiving the dose. On Monday 1/25/21 at approximately 3:00 PM, the tingling was very noticeable and my BP spiked again. Since that time until now, I have had no reactions.

Patient came in and got her first dose of the Pfizer COVID vaccine at 1515. Patient stated she had no allergies and no issues with vaccines in the past. Patient received the vaccine in the right deltoid, IM. Patient tolerated procedure well. Patient walked to main lobby to wait for her 15 min observation time by a staff member. Approximately 5 minutes after receiving the vaccine the patient approached the staff member observing patients that are in their observation window and stated ?something doesn?t feel right?. At this time the staff member called for a nurse to the lobby. When I got to the lobby and asked the patient what was going on she stated ?that she feels weird in her entire body?. I asked the patient if she was able to walk and took her back to the clinic to an exam room. Once in the exam room the patient stated that she ?just feels weird and that her heart is racing?. The patient started to get red blotchy spots on her shoulders. The patient stated that she was having no trouble breathing and did not feel like her throat or tongue was swelling. The patient?s blood pressure was 190/100, HR 89 and oxygen saturation was 98%. I gave the patient 50 mg of Benadryl PO. Patient stated she was only allergic to erythromycin and takes sertraline and vitamins as her only medications. I had the patient lay down as she felt a little dizzy. The patient was breathing heavily but was not having any trouble with SOB at this time, she called her husband to come join her. The patient continued to feel the same symptoms but they were not worsening. Approximately 5 minutes later her blood pressure had decreased to 170/94. The patient stated that she was feeling the same. 20 minutes after the patient took the Benadryl her red blotchy spots had decreased and she was starting ?to feel better overall?. The patients husband stated that he would watch her tonight and continue to monitor for symptoms. I recommended that she go in and be evaluated if her symptoms persist. The patients blood pressure 30 minutes after taking Benadryl was 140/94, pulse 73, oxygen 97%. The patient left with her husband with the understanding that if her symptoms get worse or persist to go in and be seen.

at the time of initial assessment, patient does not have hives and is 98 to 99% on room air. She does report a sensation of feeling like difficulty breathing or swallowing and is initially treated with Solu-Medrol and Benadryl as well as IV fluids. She reports that symptoms are improving almost immediately after meds are pushed. As result epinephrine is initially deferred for continued monitoring. However upon reassessment approximately 1 hour after reported reaction, the numbness in the hands and feet have resolved, but she is complaining that she feels as though the back of her tongue is swollen and still making it difficult to swallow though she no longer feels short of breath. As a result, we have discussed the possibility of treatment with epinephrine in order to fully resolve symptoms, and she is agreeable to proceed. ,

I had a sore arm and a slight headache the day after the Pfizer injection. I went out to the grocery and had a total panic attack. I had to leave the store. It took amazing effort to do this. I then had to sit in my car for an hour and talk to a friend to de-escilate enough to drive home. I have spent the entire week very close to my bed. Even getting up and taking a shower causes me to panic- heart rate increase, shallow breathing, cold sweat, the feeling that I am coming out of my body or will pass out. All I have been doing is laying around for one week?s time. I have anxiety but nothing like this. I do not know if I should take the second injection. I am fearful that this will be so much worse after taking the second injection. I did call my PCP and the nurse did a phone review with me telling me that I should take the second injection and that anxiety / panic attacks are not a known side affect of this injection.

Within minutes of the COVID injection my heart was racing and fluttering with flushing and warmth in my face. Resting heart rate was as high as 140 (measured by my Apple watch) prior to seeking medical assistance. After sitting in the waiting area for 20 minutes my pulse had slowed down to 100 (my resting heart rate is typically lower-mid 60s); however, my pulse was still high and I did not feel well and had started clearing my throat with mild tightness in my throat and chest. A doctor took my blood pressure reading was 140/78, typically my blood pressure is 105/65. My throat was not visibly swollen. At about 40min the EMT hooked me up to monitor my blood pressure, oxygen, pulse. At the same time I was being hooked to the monitor, my lower lip began itching and visibly showing minor swelling as well as minor swelling and red splotches in my cheeks and forehead. My heart was initially showing PVC but returned to normal. After being monitored for about 30 minutes my adverse reactions had slowed and stabilized to be released to go home. I took antihistamines and ibuprofen.

I had my second vaccine on Monday, 3/22, and woke up at 1am on Thursday 3/25 with extreme chest pain, shortness of breath, sweating and chills. I went to the ER, and they discovered two blood clots in my lungs. I've never had pulmonary embolisms before, so this is a very strange coincidence. I am in cancer treatment, so my risk of PEs is higher, but the timing is too close for me not to think that the second vaccine traumatized my immune system, causing the PEs.

acute right flank pain and difficulty breathing a few minutes after vaccine. Onset was quick and within 5 minutes of initial flank pain, I was unable to take a full breath in. It felt as if someone was stabbing my right flank - bra level - and taking a breath in was very difficult. minor relief was experienced when leaning forward and applying tension (I was leaning forward and pressing my arms against the seat of the chair to apply tension to the area. I was unable to sit straight, stand, walk or move very well without acute stabbing pain in my flank. I was transported by ambulance to the emergency room where I was told that I has a minor UTI and had "pulled a muscle." This "alleged" pulled muscle happen while I was sitting perfectly still in a waiting area on a conference. As a note, I am not nervous of injections or of the vaccine. I was feeling great before, during and immediately after the injection until the pain began. At onset, I felt an intense heat at the injection site that radiated throughout my upper arm around the injection site followed by uncomfortable flank pain and shortness of breath. Within minutes, the flank pain became acute and it was difficult to catch a full breath without pain - likely due to the acute flank pain. I was released from the emergency room at approximately 3:00pm with a prescription for antibiotics for the UTI and muscle relaxers..

On Day 1 of shot given just a few hours after shot, I started having chills, Tooth pain, burning nostrils, burning throat. I went to sleep and later at 1 am in the morning I woke up and had an extremely painful sore throat. The next day (Day 2) began the severe chest congestion and nasal congestion. This interfered with my asthma and ability to breathe. I also had body aches, and severe nausea and headache. Each day the symptoms seemed to increase not get better. Day 3 was severe enough for me to contact my physician as I didn?t feel it should be getting worse. I also had Diarrhea on Day 3. Finally I started taking Sudafed on Day 3 which helped alleviate the congestion symptoms while taking but I could tell it wasn?t better when the medication would wear off. Day 4 the coughing was so severe my chest started to hurt and I started to have Armpit and breast pain under the arm on the side of the injection site. Day 5 I started to get a severe Ear Ache in my left ear. I cannot be up and out of bed for more than a few minutes or the nausea gets too severe. Day 6 is today and I called my Physician again. They agreed that the symptoms should not be lasting this long and had me rapid tested for Covid-19 which came back negative. I went in for an office visit and it appears I have a secondary infection in my throat (possibly caused by the drainage). They prescribed me Azithromyzcin for the infection, Cough syrup with codeine for the cough, and Zofran for the nausea. They told me to alternate Tylenol and ibuprofen for the other aches and pains and to call them Friday if symptoms do not improve. I have already missed 3 days of work and the doctor just wrote me a note for 3 days more off of work because I?m so nauseated I can?t move around.

I have had the same that most people complain about, soreness of arm, but nothing that concerned me. I have noticed changes to my vision and after one week, developing headaches that are not going away even with Motrin. I have also noticed after a few days after the shot a strange reaction, like if my heart jumped a beat and I had shortness of breath. It would be only one or two second episodes at a time, so I'm not too concerned, but if it continues, I will discuss this with my doctor. I had never felt that before. This is not chest pains, it's difficult to describe. It's like the heart has to "jump" a beat.. but only once or twice. It's scary, but it does not happen often and it's happening less in the past day. The headaches are not fun, but I hope they will go away after a few weeks. I don't suffer migranes or headaches on a regular basis.

15 minutes after the injection I had an intense allergic/anaphylactic reaction. I was watched and treated on site by EMS for 2 hours with Benadryl, oxygen and rest. We did not use epi because I was still able to breath (minus some wheezing, coughing, hoarseness and lung irritation). I felt the reaction hit when I started seeing green spots and my vitals dramatically increased (BP 181/111, HR 142 and weak). I then experienced the following symptoms: rash/hives on neck and chest, fatigue and weakness, dizzy and lightheaded and needed wheelchair for moving around, chills and shaking, blurry vision, nausea, stomach pain, headache, chest pain and increased urination. I also had elevated glucose (147). During those two hours my vitals decreased a little, but the rest of my symptoms persisted. I was not getting better and my vitals started to increase again at the two hour mark so EMS called an ambulance and transported me to hospital. I was treated with solumedrol and observed for several hours. The meds helped enough to send me home. (I did have to continue taking Benadryl at home that night and the next day because I continued to have an allergic response). I also had severe injection site pain and bruising.

I seemed to be ok the first hour after receiving the shot. I then started to have a stomach ache but was ok. By approximately 11 to 12 pm that night I begin to feel extreme dizziness. I went to bed and woke up at 4 AM on April 24 th with the worst dizziness I?ve ever experienced. I also had slight shortness of breath. Due to the extreme exhaustion I continually kept falling back asleep throughout all of the day and night. The shortness of breath subsided early on Saturday. It is now Sunday April 25th. From what I can tell I may have experienced a fever the previous day but was unable to care for myself enough to check my temperature. My temperature is normal today but I?m still feeling fatigued , achy and only slightly dizzy. I?m not sure if it?s due to the vaccine or not but I woke up with what looks like a rash on my chin. I have not contacted any medical facility during this time. Also , I experienced a slight moment of dizziness when I received the first dose but never reported it as I believed this to be a normal reaction.

AT 15 minutes ran for Diarrhea. At 20-30 minutes my face went numb but was mostly left sided but part of top right too. Called doctor and while on hold a lump developed in my throat and I felt so parched I could not drink enough water to help that lump in my throat. As I could still breathe the doctor said go home and take Benadryl for the weekend. I started a Benadryl regimen as soon as I got home one every 4 hours until I fell asleep. The next morning I felt fatigued and the face numbness turned into this pressure headache mainly on the left side (that is still present at day 12). The lump in my throat was gone and never returned. I took more benadryl that evening a couple times 4 hours apart. Mainly fatigued and pressure headache with occasional nausea. This continued until Monday. I wasn't fatigued on Monday-Wednesday but I had minor chest aches which I had in the past due to costochondritis/scar tissue. Thursday I felt much worse upon waking, like I was sick with the flu again. I continued about my day until 11am the chest aches/pains turned into the worst pain of my life (short of child birth). I called 911 as we were driving to the hospital asking if it would be better for us to pull over as I wasn't sure I would make it to the hospital. He said the time would probably be slower as they'd have to locate me so my husband took me. The pain was a level 10, I felt the most immense pressure but due to having 4 children knew Lamaze breathing helped with the pain. Tears rolling down my face and breathing Lamaze was the only thing keeping me from screaming with pain. The ER ran a broad spectrum of tests and found nothing showing, but relayed how it was most likely the vaccine shot 2. I had also read intense inflammation can follow the vaccine shots. Which would make sense since my lungs do occasionally get inflamed. Accompanied with all of this I am unable to walk, do chores and sometimes just while sitting I cannot catch my breath. I will take slow deep breaths until I cant breathe again within 20-30 minutes. This mornign while unloading the dishwasher I became winded! I'm not a runner by any means, but I move daily, I take our daughter to swim team, run errands, do dishes, etc. I am having to stop and take deep breaths to catch my breath again. The catching my breath has worsened over the last 3 days and I do not know why. I have a follow up appt with my doctor tomorrow.

I am a very active fit person that has consistently exercised 6 days a week for the past 15+ years doing CrossFit style workouts and also a consistent runner (half marathon). My heart rate and blood pressure are always very low due to my active lifestyle. Normally my resting heart rate is in the 50's or low 60's and my blood pressure around 100-110/60-65. My health was great - I exercised, worked, was active with my kids, and never had any of these symptoms prior to the 1st dose of the Pfizer vaccine. Days 1-2 post vaccine, I only experienced sore arm, my throat became tight/raspier, and a little tired. A few days after 1st shot, I had a big heart palpitation that woke me from deep sleep and heart was racing/pounding in the middle of the night. Next couple days noticed heart was working really hard doing the simplest things like standing up, laundry, or walking up the stairs. Heart rate was faster, my blood pressure was higher at rest, and my left arm where I had the shot continually felt tingly/numb. On day 6, about 1-2 hours after working out while sitting at my computer working, I developed the most intense crushing chest pain, high BP, extreme fogginess/brain fog (couldn't see the words on the screen), nauseous, felt like I might vomit, light headed, my outer fingers in left hand couldn't function and type (they curled up), and thought I was going to pass out. I laid down and took a nap. Day 7, my overall body feels off with similar symptoms. Day 8, I tried working out again and ended up experiencing the same debilitating symptoms described above plus chills but worse which sent me to the ER. They ran a battery of tests (EKG, blood work, chest x-ray, abdominal ultrasound) to rule out a blood clot from vaccine or heart attack. All tests normal and sent home. Days 9-21 - overall body feels weak from head to toe, low energy, smallest movements make heart race/pound, chest feels achy (squeezing pressure at times), left arm is still tingly, brain fog is terrible, nausea off/on, appetite is off, losing weight, high BP for me (130-140/80-90's), dizziness, tighter/raspier throat, bra and pants feel like putting pressure on chest/stomach (so not wearing them), sitting can feel like compressing something so have to get up frequently, hard time focusing, and haven't exercised at all for 2 weeks. Exerting too much energy seems to make things worse. Aside from these regular symptoms, I keep having "episodes" where things get worse and feel like I may pass out. I followed up with my doctor around day 12 and she ordered a 48 hr heart holter monitor and heart stress test. Day 22 (5/13) - another intense episode that sends me back to the ER (same symptoms described above plus a very painful lump feeling on left arm near where vaccine was given that developed couple days prior). Repeat blood work and chest x-ray. Day 23-31 (today), while my energy level has started improving and overall I don't feel as awful head to toe as before, I still have chest discomfort/heart racing with little exertion, higher BP than my normal, brain fog, sometimes feel like might pass out, left arm still tingly, and have noticed my feet turn bright red when I am standing (not even for a long time). Laying down seems to help relieve some of these symptoms. I have another follow up appointment with my doctor this week. There is no doubt, the vaccine triggered something in my body causing these symptoms. Now I just want to know how to treat it so I can get back to feeling 100% like myself before I had the shot. I will NOT be getting the 2nd dose due to these extreme and alarming symptoms I have been experiencing for over a month now.

Following up with pt to advise her against getting an mRNA vaccine in the future, that currently the only other option in the U.S. is the Janssen/J&J vaccine, and that given her autoimmune disease, I would be concerned about her developing immune thrombosis and thrombocytopenia, so recommend she discuss with her rheumatologist, and that if she gets a subsequent dose of any COVID vaccine, to have it administered at a hospital location.

I have been dealing with ongoing symptoms from having covid back in march 2020. Most symptoms have resolved except sometimes I still get chest pain/tightness and short of breath but rarely anymore. Sometimes fatigue and phantosmia, but again, rarely. After the first vaccine, I felt great. Really good. Then I got the second vaccine. Went fine until about 2 weeks later - I have been short of breath with chest tightness since. I have to use the inhaler I was prescribed for covid almost daily (which I only did while actively fighting covid), I get winded walking or talking, I'm tired more often - it's like my symptoms were flared up by the second vaccine. I had been doing so much better and now, I'm not back to how bad it was when I was actually sick but it's definitely worse than before the second vaccine. I have been trying to control it with the inhaler but it's getting worse each day.

Shortly after the shot itching all over began, with no hives. About 15 minutes after the dose, started with racing heart rate, shortness of breath, dizziness and near syncope, weakness, nausea. Then started with 30 minutes of legs spasming/trembling. Ears, throat, tongue itching and wheezing. No treatment administered by the facility. I used my own inhaler for the wheezing. Was then largely fine for about 6 hours at which time arm soreness began, following by fever, sweats, chills, exhaustion, nausea, lymph node swelling, body aches. High fevers and sweats for 36 hours (Did not take over night or through next morning but must have been well over 102 as I felt like I had pneumonia and felt remarkably better and could eat the second evening at which time I could check and it was 102). Already much improved by beginning of third day. Towards the middle/end of week one, however, began with eye pain and increased asthma symptoms, some transient hives periodically, and physically tired. Palpitations and chest pain began late last evening. If it gets like after shot 1, I will seek medical evaluation this time.

We spoke to the patient a few hours later and she still had some tingling in her upper lip, but was feeling better than earlier. The next day, we followed up again and she had taken a dose of bendaryl the previous evening and she stated that her tongue is now feeling "thick", but her lips and cheeks were no longer tingling. She also said that she is not having any trouble breathing (and possibly thinking to much about vaccine) - but felt like she could not take as deep a breath as normal.

15 minutes and 21 seconds after shot was given, I felt suddenly very hot, lightheaded and I could feel my pulse escalating. Nurse in the post-shot monitoring tent took vitals to confirm pulse at 95, when typically 68. I was laid down and BP dropped to 110/78. Chest tightness that I am familiar with from asthma started to develop and my neck and throat and upper shoulders felt very tight and constricted. I had some trouble swallowing water as though my throat was constricted and my breathing felt shallow. Nurses provided care and I was asked to get up and sit in a chair again. Within a minute, I felt dizzy and disoriented again and heart rate went up. The tightness in my chest and throat and shallow breathing continued along with my voice becoming hoarse. The doctor on call asked if I?d had these symptoms before and I said I had after eating shrimp years ago. He decided to transfer me to the ER for monitoring . I stayed at the ER for about an hour and a half and was monitored. The constricted throat and asthma chest tightness did not subside but did not get worse. Doctor recommended Benadryl every 6 hours as symptoms persisted. Within a half hour of taking 25 mg of Benadryl, I started to feel improved breathing and less throat constriction and easier swallowing. After the second dose of Benadryl, symptoms were much 70% gone, except for hoarse voice abs very slight tightness with swallowing. I had informed the injection staff prior to receiving my vaccine that I am a person with a history of anaphylaxis (not to a vaccine) that required and epi pen and overnight hospital stay in the past .

Last night she felt very fatigued when walking around the house. This morning when she woke up she felt very, very, very fatigued. Walking took a lot of effort out of her.

Patient still had a lingering headache, but nothing like she felt earlier this morning. It's not terrible, but it wasn't pleasant for a couple of hours. Patient was unable to provide seriousness for today's events (08Jan2021), and stated it wasn't really life threatening, but more significant than yesterday. Patient denied having any other vaccines the same day or 4 weeks prior. No history of problems or adverse events with vaccines in past. Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine with events were reported as related.

Outcome of severe aches, voice very raspy, headache/lingering headache, wiped out /fatigued/tired were not recovered; outcome of lethargic, it took a minute for her to catch her breath, flushed and itchy was unknown, and outcome of other events were recovering.

I am a doctor and gave myself epinephrine 0.3 mg IM and within 60 to 90 seconds the symptoms improved dramatically. I had my husband pick me up at the office and went home. The headache and nausea worsened on the drive but then settled down significantly. I rested for a few hours, then took oral pred 20 mg at about 2:45. I noticed that my headache was back and very intense at about 3:15 pm. No nausea this time, but my left eye began itching and it was very tight / hard to breathe.

Throat swelling; severe allergic reaction to the Pfizer vaccine; chills; sweats; nausea; This is a spontaneous report from two contactable physicians. A 46-year-old female patient received first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number: EL9267), via an unspecified route of administration on 13Feb2021 at a single dose in left arm for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included herpes Simplex I, back pain, SI joint dysfunction, difficulty sleeping and allergy to raw tomatoes. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. On 13Feb2021, the patient experienced throat swelling, severe allergic reaction to the Pfizer vaccine, chills, sweats, nausea, the seriousness of throat swelling, severe allergic reaction was reported as hospitalization, seriousness of the other events was reported as medically significant. Under anaphylaxis that the patient has EpiPen at home for raw tomatoes Clinical course: she had a severe reaction to the first shot presenting the following side effects: chills, sweats and nausea within 5 minutes and then developed throat swelling within 10 minutes, the patient was administered with an EpiPen, Benadryl and was sent to the ER where she received Benadryl IV monitored, eventually her symptoms diminished from 10 of 10 to a 6 in a scale of 10, the patient also received Prednisone 40 mg everyday for 4 days. She did have nausea and sweats. It was six out of ten in the ER. Then it went to four or five out of ten. It took four to five days to get back to normal. By five days after the vaccination she was back to normal. She had a virtual visit with a patient who apparently had a severe reaction after the first vaccine. It was set up in physical therapy office. HCP wants to know if it is safe for the patient to receive the second dose of the vaccine. HCP mentioned that this is her first patient who has a severe allergic reaction to the Pfizer vaccine. She was feeling better. She was told to call her doctor about getting the second shot. The bottom line is if they acted as severely as they did she would think the answer would be not to get the second. She was better. She felt fine. She has an allergy to raw tomatoes. She knows she is not supposed to have raw tomatoes. A couple of days ago she had a dressing that must have had raw tomatoes in it because she had throat swelling. The patient said what happened with Pfizer was more. She knew it when it was happening because it has happened before. She had no hypoxia. The patient reported that her pulse ox was checked and was in the high 90's. The patient was able to swallow. No drooling. She did have nausea and sweats. It was six out of ten in the ER. Then it went to four or five out of ten. It took four to five days to get back to normal. By five days after the vaccination she was back to normal. On 23Nov2020, the patient weighed 150 pounds and her height was 66 inches. The outcome of events was recovering. There is a causality, because it happened with 5 to 10 minutes after receiving the vaccination. She had to wait for 15 minutes. The patient had chills, sweats, and nausea within 5 minutes. She felt fine upon immediately receiving and then within 5 minutes she had chills, sweat, nausea, headache. Then within 5 to 10 minutes throat swelling. There is a causality, because it happened with 5 to 10 minutes after receiving the vaccination. She had to wait for 15 minutes. The patient had chills, sweats, and nausea within 5 minutes. She felt fine upon immediately receiving and then within 5 minutes she had chills, sweat, nausea, headache. Then within 5 to 10 minutes throat swelling.; Sender's Comments: Based on known safety profile and temporal association, the contribution of the suspect drug to the onset of events cannot be excluded.

After receiving dose of COVID vaccine, patient reported difficulty breathing and became shaky. Patient was transferred to wheelchair, given water and ice and was transferred by an RN to the ED. Per ED MD, patient developed throat tightness, nausea, fluctuance a shin after COVID vaccine. Concern this could represent of a allergic reaction. Less likely vasovagal reaction as throat tightening would be very atypical. There were no signs of any angioedema, she has no rash, no wheezing, no chest pain. At this time she does not have signs of anaphylaxis. Patient's symptoms have completely resolved by the time of evaluation. Per MD, this could have been allergic reaction to the vaccine and therefore would not recommend that she received a 2nd dose. She is recommend to follow up with her primary care physician for re-evaluation and to discuss other options for vaccine.

About 15-16 minutes after the shot I got elevetad heart rate, tingling and numbness in tongue and mouth palate. I had left the facility so decided to walk outside. Hart pulse got better in about 30 minutes, but the tongue tingling stayed. About 1 hour after the shot, the tingling got more intense and spread on my face around my mouth and chicks. I felt intense burning above my lips, looked in the Mirror and saw that my upper lip was swallen and red. Went back to the vaccination site, and talked to a paramedic. She said to take Benadryl. It is now 1 week after the shot. Tingling and numbness are getting worse in my mouth and tongue. A doctor prescribed me coticosteroids. He said I should take then to prevent anafilactic shock from the vaccine. I still have the tingling. When tingling and numbness in tongue and throat starts increasing, I have a feeling that my throat is closing and it is difficult I breathe.

It was the 1st dose after talking to the doctor on site and they put me in for extra observation (30 Mins). Within 12 minutes I had an allergic reaction and I spent a good two hours plus with them and now I am on the CDC watch app. The two paramedics plus doctor said they had never seen a person have all the symptoms in one shot, till they met me. The doctor said he was amazed at how sensitive my body was to the medicine but was very impressed that I had all my medications, allergic reactions and so on digitally. I go for the 2nd/final shot on 4/29 so hopefully that one doesnt have me down for days bc I leave for the DR on 5/1. I have been home and recovering sine Thursday. I had a fever, chills, my arm went numb, then I had swelling/redness and sore to the touch, chest palpitations, my asthma kicked in with the wheezing, my blood pressure sky rocketed, my sugar jumped up to 300, fatigue, tiredness, then the itching started and diarrhea. Just a lot going on from one shot.

I had advised the staff, like I was previously advised, of the mild reaction last time. They had the shot administered by a Dr there and the personnel were alerted to keep an eye on me. Shot was administered and they kept me at the seat with the doctor for several minutes before placing me in the waiting room. Metallic type taste and smell occurred in less than 5 minutes of the shot. Slight swelling of the tongue and throat. Caused the need to repeatedly clear my throat and more coughing than the first time. Could not catch my breath easily and felt labored. Was light heads, eyes watering and a little ?foggy.? Used my inhaler but that did not seem to help. Used my emergency inhaler a 2nd time about 2 minutes later. Was advised my face and chest were very red and a party sat with me for a bit. Took about 10 minutes before the breathing/coughing finally seemed to be resolving. The party checking on me stayed in the room and rolled a chair with wheels near incase she need to take me to the ER just down the hallway. She also had an epee pen and advised me she had it with her just in case. My tongue and roof (Ridges) of the mouth was noticeably swollen to me after just an hour. After about an hour and half there, the allergic reactions seemed to stabilize and the staff and I both felt we were out of the woods but I was not ok to leave yet. Coughing subsided drastically and color became normal again. Kept there for a little bit longer? I was at the hospital until 5:20pm-ish. Was advised to go home and take another antihistamine, drink a lot of water and rest. They also advised to report adverse reactions stating I had another mild allergic reaction to the 2nd shot. Came home and took another zyrtec and went to bed because I was so tired. Woke up to my arm being extremely sore but the area of the shot was not raised this time but was warm and painful to the touch. Felt very achy, headache, and exhausted the next day like I had the flu. Slept the majority of the next day. Smell and taste resolved within a few hours but the roof of the mouth is still rigid but metallic taste and soreness is gone. I can tell the tongue is no longer swollen. It?s no longer bulging to the side of my teeth and I no longer seem to have a little lisp. This is now April 30, 2021 at 8:15am.

Immediately following vaccine I experienced rapid heart rate, small tightness in chest, and shortness of breath. I had to remove my mask to breathe. I stood from feeling my heart race, but then felt dizzy and sat again. It felt exactly like what happens when I eat shellfish, only it eased faster. Symptoms improved after five minutes of deep slow breathing. My heart raced longer, than five minutes but were not bothersome after five minutes. The attendant watched me the full half hour and was prepared with epinephrine if my airway swelled. He offered me benadryl, but i took it at home instead. That night my neck swelled slightly around my thyroid and my throat felt itchy. . I took two Benadryl and went to bed. Today the right side of my face is slightly numb, but moves normally and is not drooping. I have had bells palsy immediately after 2009 H1N1 vaccine, and same allergic response hr and breathing after varicella vaccine. All other vaccines have not been a problem.

Instant swelling of the left lymph node ( visibly seen by witness and was compared to the size of a lemon) and swelling of right (minimal) closing throat, inability to swallow and challenge to breathe, tingling in hands, 90% loss of muscle strength in legs, heart palpitations (over 90 bpm - avg. 62), loss of concentration and low Co2, and flushed/redness in skin on neck, face, hands, back. I had many witnesses and 2 called 911 thinking it was anaphylactic shock with continuous throat swelling. Paramedic said that it did not appear to be an allergic reaction but could clearly see my lymph nodes swelling. Provided oxygen, Benadryl, IV and blood tests. No infection was found and no food allergy in past. I could not move my legs for a couple of hours but eventually had swelling, muscle strength decrease and return back to normal by the end of the evening. My first dose had no symptoms. However, I placed my hormone patch on the same arm of the second vaccine that week (*note -have used for over a year with no adverse reactions). Possibility of lymph node overdrive or anaphylactic shock with the combo? Should be looked into. Very serious, life threatening event.

depressed thinking she; chest tighten; my heart raced; I couldn't breathe and had to remove my mask and try to deep breathe; I stood and felt dizzy, then sat and continued deep breathing; neck swelled at thyroid that night; my throat was itchy/sore; my throat was itchy/sore; headache; quite a few allergies; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable healthcare professional (patient). A 46-year-old non-pregnant female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number: ER8735) at the age of 46-years-old, via an unspecified route of administration in right arm on 01May2021 at 1st dose, single for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included Ehlers Danlos, a connective tissue disorder. It is genetic but it also impacts one part of the immune system. The patient has not been diagnosed with this additional part because they did not think it was useful to go for a million tests for something that they have, then not going to treat them any differently. This goes with mast cell activation disorder and a lot of people with Ehlers Danlos have mast cell activation disorder. It causes a lot of allergic reactions to a lot of things. The patient then clarified that she has not been diagnosed with mast cell activation because it was not useful to go for a million tests. If the patient takes a medication, she gets an anaphylactic-like reaction. She has a lot of history with allergies to drugs. For family history, mast cell activation disorder, if people looked at concomitant conditions that go with mast cell activation disorder, her family history has every single one of those. This includes rheumatoid arthritis, Ehlers Danlos, bladder frequent urination issues, and they all have that. Also, multiple sclerosis. Also, gives like just getting hives. Her sister gets hives and reacts to the sun - she breaks out in hives. The list goes on with mast cell activation disorder and goes with Ehlers Danlos together with all of these big huge lists. Everyone in her family was represented on the whole list. Prior to vaccination, the patient was not diagnosed with COVID-19. Concomitant medications included levothyroxine, famotidine, cyanocobalamin (B12), ascorbic acid (C VITAMIN), colecalciferol (D3 VITAMIN), magnesium, and thiamine hydrochloride (B1 VITAMIN). She did not receive any other vaccines within 4 weeks prior to the COVID vaccine. The patient has a lot of history with allergies to drugs and she has had reactions following previous vaccinations: in 2009, for the H1N1 pandemic, she got the vaccine for immunization and then she had Bell's Palsy. After that, she got an autoimmune disease which may or may not have been due to the vaccine. She did not remember what year it was she got the varicella vaccine for immunization and she experienced a racing heart and could not breathe, and she had to sit in the emergency room. A year ago (2020), she got the tetanus vaccine for immunization and had no reaction. She has had multiple other vaccinations too where nothing happened, and she has had lots of vaccines, so she was not scared of them. The facility where the most recent COVID-19 vaccine was administered was at a pharmacy or drug store. Since the vaccination, the patient has not been tested for COVID-19. On 01May2021 at 15:30 (also reported as within 30 seconds of receiving the dose), the patient felt her chest tighten, heart raced, and couldn't breathe; she had to remove her mask and tried to breathe deeply. When she stood up, she felt dizzy, then she sat and continued deep breathing. She mentioned that this scary part lasted for 5 minutes then diminished over the next half hour. She was offered antihistamine and they were ready with the epi-pen, but she didn't need it. She mentioned that on 01May2021, yer neck swelled at thyroid that night, and her throat was itchy/sore. The patient took two BENADRYL. She still has headache, but everything else mostly resolved. She had quite a few allergies after vaccination which was non-serious. Her sister had the same reaction and they have the same conditions. Her sister's reaction was different in that her sister's face swelled. The patient's reaction was that her heart raced, and she could not breathe. Both she and her sister were fine, but she did not think she could get the second vaccine unless she could get it in a more supervised state. The patient and her sister have Ehlers Danlos, which was a connective tissue disorder. It is genetic but it also impacts one part of the immune system. A lot of people with Ehlers Danlos have mast cell activation disorder. It causes a lot of allergic reactions to a lot of things. She was thinking if she could take a mast cell inhibitor, she could take the second vaccine dose to see if she does not have the reaction. She understood that they did not want people to do that, because they will have a diminished response. But, if it was between her not getting the second dose or maybe other people could get it and have lesser response and still get the second vaccine, it just seemed like something easy if Pfizer could just come up with a plan where she will get the second dose and see if she does not have that reaction. Yesterday, she was depressed thinking she could not get the second vaccine. The CDC said do not get the second dose if someone had a reaction. The patient mentioned that her heart rate was still a little weird the entire time. After five minutes, she thought okay maybe she will be fine. The first minutes or so, she thought maybe they will have to call 911 but it worked out. You never know with that allergic reaction stuff. She mentioned that her previous reaction with varicella vaccine was worse, the same thing as this was, but lasted longer than the COVID vaccine. She felt like the racing was longer and she could not breathe for a longer time, but it was similar. It was the live virus, she guessed she let it go because it was a live virus. She did not visit an emergency room of physician's office because she had these things happen to her before. Because she has experienced these things before, she did not get panicky and she just tried to breathe it out and see what happened. The kid that was attending her asked if she wanted him to call an ambulance and she said no, she was just going to wait and see if the breathing thing goes away and it did. Deep breathing helped it go away, she did not know why, but it just does. Her second dose was due for 22May2021. The outcome of the event "headache" was not recovered, recovered on May2021 for "neck swelled at thyroid that night", "my throat was itchy/sore", and "quite a few allergies", and recovered on 01May2021 for all other events.

Approximately 40 minutes after getting my second dose of the Pfizer vaccine I developed severe abdominal pain and chest tightness. I could not take in a deep breath and became diaphoretic with cold and hot sweats. My ring and pinky finger, both hands, became numb and were tingling with the numbness traveling down to my elbows. I became lethargic and had a feeling of extreme uneasiness followed by a bout of diarrhea. I then fell asleep for approximately 2 and half hours without moving. When i woke up the numbness was gone but I was still fatigued and had intense abdominal pain and still having the feeling that something wasn't quite right.

From her allergist"...since her 2nd COVID vaccination. Within an hour of the shot she felt nauseous and had flushing. She responded to antihstaimines initally but then at 24 hours developed flushing, redness, shaking. Her HR and BP were elevated. Her throat felt tight and she was getting worse despite antihistamines and used her Epipen. Went to ED and given bendaryl, ativan, solumedrol. She felt better and was discharged home. Yesterday she had another bad flare but was feeling better today. Took 60mg prednisone on Sunday and 50mg this AM. After her Xolair she had a significant flare. She felt her whole body flushing and she developed hives and itching. Her voice changed and her throat was tight and she was given epi x2. Also took 50mg of hydroxyzine and was given IV benadryl. She was taken to the ED. I spoke with the ED doctor at 4:30 and she seemed to be better. She was given pepsid as well as zofran and ativan. I spoke with her at 5:45 and she sounded like she was not feeling better. Her voice was froggy and she reported that she did not feel like things were calming down. I spoke with the ED again and asked them to give her another 50mg of hydroxyzine and if still not improving solumedrol. I do think this is in the setting of her vaccination causing an immune stimulation and not related to the Xolair. We discussed that the Xolair should help but may not be immediate. She was to continue tapering steroids to 40mg tomorrow but she should take 60mg if still symptomatic. I asked them to keep her at the hospital until she has significantly improved..."

When I received my vaccine, I waited 15 minutes at pharmacy and didn't notice any adverse symptoms. But around 4:00 pm, I stood up and noticed that my knees were swollen, popping and cracking when I walked. I have never had any problems with my knees, and exercise regularly, so at first I thought is was just a weird Covid side affect...but I couldn't find that particular symptom on the list of Covid vaccine side effects. I took 2 Alleve and applied Arnica Gel to my knees. A couple hours later, my fingers, hands and wrists felt swollen. Then overnight, I noticed that I started to feel itchy, tingly in random spots all over my body. But I did not develop a rash. The next morning, my face was swollen, my throat felt sore/tight, everything felt puffy and swollen. My daughter asked me if I got Botox because "my wrinkles were gone"!! That's when I knew it was an allergic reaction. I took 2 Benedryls and just napped all day. I continued taking Benedryl for 2 days, and eventually the symptoms went away. Other than swelling, I only had mild muscle pain at the injection site. No fever or muscle pain, just swelling and the tingly itchiness all over. However, the joint discomfort in my knees and hands is still there.

Approximately forty-five minutes after the second vaccine dose, I began wheezing. I have a history of asthma as well as medication allergies. This was deep wheezing that happens when I have an allergic reaction. In spite of using my albuterol inhaler, I continued to wheeze (moderate) throughout the night. I stayed up most of the night to monitor myself, using my inhaler every four hours. I am in a densely populated area with a lot of hospitals, so I knew I could call for an ambulance if needed and therefore chose not to go immediately. I take a daily dose of an antihistamine (Allegra 180mg). The following morning, I woke to increased wheezing. I took my antihistamine a few hours early, and within an hour, the wheezing was better, and within a couple of hours, it had decreased to the level it had been the day prior. By late that night, I was no longer wheezing. In addition to wheezing, I got a mild headache almost immediately after the second vaccine dose was given. After the first dose, I experienced a bitter taste in my mouth. I had recently been on clindamycin, which caused a very bitter/metallic taste in my mouth. I was finished with the antibiotic 8 days before the first dose of the vaccine. I wasn't sure that the bitter taste was related to the Pfizer vaccine, but the taste had started to decrease pretty significantly in the two days before the second dose. Within a few hours after the second Pfizer dose, the bitter taste had returned to the level it was after the first dose. I still have the bitter/metallic taste in my mouth as of today (06/13/2021). I believe the other symptoms I had were normal post-vaccine side effects (malaise, aches, swollen lymph nodes, low-grade fever, additional headaches).

My symptoms started 06-10-2021 and my symptoms are worsening. I am now now experienced very red, little bumps all over my body. These bumps are like blisters that are full of pus but when they break open the pus is a brown liquid form. I also have skin peeling and my throat is really swollen. I had a biopsy done where my doctor found out my symptoms are related to the Ccovid vaccine. Before the vaccine, I had no issues. I also itch horribly throughout the days. I have applied topical creams, Benadryl and I have also taken steroids for over a month. Since receiving my second dose vaccine, I have slept for three hours every night. Even when I lie down flat on my bed I start coughing. My PCP has referred me out to see a second specialist who will examine me and try to find out why I am experiencing these symptoms. My PCP does not know why I am experiencing these symptoms. The specialist I will be seeing soon is located in another town. I have applied so many creams, also received two steroid treatments that have not helped and I do not know what else to do and my symptoms are not going away.

She had this with the first dose but it is way more severe with second dose. She is just wondering about it, she is not an anxious person, it is not anxiety. It hit within 10 minutes of getting the shot and she wants to know why and how long this will last. She took Benadryl for a day or 2 afterwards, this was not critical.

I have been constantly sick since the day of the vaccine, first with pneumonia then consecutive cases of bronchitis. I have been through 3 courses of antibiotics, and 3 of steroids. Nothing clears my lungs up now. I have to do at least one albuterol treatment per day. I can hardly leave the house when it is humid outside, because I just cannot breathe. I have no quality of life anymore. I got the vaccine to keep from getting sick, and as a result I'm more sick than I've ever been in my whole life!!

When she went to the next room, 1 minute later, her heart started beating very fast, then she started to feel like she could not breathe/difficulty breathing for that moment. So, she tried to calm herself down and she focused on her phone to play games and to not think about it. After a couple minutes, it had gone. it was probably gone maybe about 10 minutes later. After 15 minutes, she went back to her office, everything was ok. Her heart was beating but not that fast, it was calmer than before, and she had a light headache, then some soreness on the vaccine site, on the left side, 'she thinks that is normal, right?'

A 47-year-old female patient received the second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE; Lot Number: EL1283), via an unspecified route of administration on 08Jan2021 at 08:49 (at the age of 47-years-old) as a single dose for COVID-19 immunization. There were no known medical history or concomitant medications. The patient previously received the first dose of BNT162B2 on 18Dec2020 (Lot Number: EK5730) for COVID-19 immunization and experienced nausea, headache, and fatigue.

A 47-year-old female patient received the first dose bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number EL0140), intramuscular in left arm on 20Dec2020 at a single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Vaccination was administered in a hospital. Prior to vaccination, the patient was not diagnosed with COVID-19.

Treatment for the events included epinephrine, methylprednisolone, diphenhydramine. Since the vaccination, the patient has not been tested for COVID-19.; Sender's Comments: A possible causal association between administration of BNT162B2 and the onset of feeling dry throat, itching, felt like having lump inside her throat, having difficulty swallowing saliva, difficulty breathing and very groggy cannot be excluded, considering the plausible temporal relationship and the known adverse event profile of the suspect product. Severe allergic reaction is the known risk for the product. The underlying predisposing condition of allergies to multiple materials may put the patient at high risk of anaphylactic reactions.

Received shot at approximately 2pm and was in observation chairs. Around 205pm I took a dose of tylenol to attempt to prevent fever. I immediately noticed that the medication felt stuck in my esophagus and it was hard to swallow them down. Being a nurse I began to monitor more closely my breathing. I was able to take air into my lungs easily. Next I noticed that my nose became very stuffy and was difficulty to breath through but my airway continued to seem ok and I was breathing without difficulty through my nose. By about 210pm I had noticed that my face felt strange. As another few minutes progress my entire face felt numb like when your dental lidocaine is wearing off. It was a very disturbing feeling. I never had difficulty breathing but the throat and nasal swelling lasted about 1 1/2 hours. The facial numbness lasted at least 4 hours and my nose and tongue still feel a little strange even at this moment. I stayed in the observation area for about 35 minutes just to make sure I was not going to lose my airway before leaving. I am a nurse and I didn't want to get sent to the ER for hours just to be given benadryl since my airway was ok so I didn't report it at the time of incident. I had preloaded with zyrtec, pepcid and ibuprofen the morning prior to injection to try and avoid reaction or side effects that others were reporting. I think if I had not had antihistamine in my system I would have had anaphylaxis for sure. I went straight home and took more antihistamine. Contacted my doctor so she knew of the symptoms. She told me to continue the antihistamines for a few days and to go to the ER if severe issue happened. This was a VERY VERY scary incident. For a little history: after my first vaccine I noticed itching on my chest but couldn't see any rash. About day 3-4 a rash appeared. I was unsure if this was vaccine related since it took 3 days to appear. It was cleared after a few days of steroid cream.

Immediately upon having the injection administered, my heart rate sped up. I sat down within the waiting area for monitoring thinking that if I sat down for a bit, that it would maybe pass . Within about 7 minutes of that, I began to feel the back, left side of my throat go numb. I began to get very dizzy after that and I alerted one the pharmacy Nurses, that was on duty. She asked for me to open My mouth so that she could see if my throat was swelling & said that she didn?t see anything and I was told by her that it may just be anxiety that I was experiencing and she asked me to take a few sips of water and to try and relax a bit. She resumed helping others, while I continued to sit there. It was then when I experienced a heavy onset of chest tightness and the inability to breathe. The left side of my face and jaw went numb & that?s when I really knew something was wrong. I was taken outside for some fresh air and realize that I was so nauseous, more dizzy, very weak upon standing and I told the same nurse and another young lady that was assisting me that I felt like I was going to pass out and to please call EMS for me . At that time, I lost temporary feeling in all 4 limbs and I began to experience heart palpitations . I was having some trouble swallowing and I was laid down and. My blood pressure was taken. Blood Pressure was 235/130 and it was taken several times until emts arrived. It was then 200/120 and 180/112 by the time help arrived. Overall I experienced burning sensation in chest and abdomen, facial weakness and numbness left side fever loose stools weakness, shortness of brEath and chest tightness blurred vision felt like I?m out of touch with reality Malaise restless and the loss in feeling in my Limbs are slowly returning body And muscle and joint aches and pains and wheezing bouts

Within about 5 minutes, I started to feel dizzy, have sinus pressure building, and sensation of my throat closing. This was a drive-thru site and they immediately asked you to keep driving to a "holding line of traffic" to monitor for adverse events. During this time, the sinus pressure increased, and I started to have to clear my throat, plus hoarseness. I still have 5 hours later. I told the EMT who allows you to go after 15 minutes, and he told me to drink water, take a benadryl and had me keep driving. I had my boyfriend drive. At 30 min post-admin, began sneezing, coughing, slight shortness of breath, and took benadryl. Most symptoms have resolved.

I had what is considered the normal side effects i.e. body aches, joint pain, pain redness and swelling around injection site (both my 3/12 Lot# EN6208 & 3/31 Lot# ER8737 where done in the left arm), low grade fever, fatigue, headache, chills but I think they were all except for headache & fever at a higher degree since I already have issues that cause many of these symptoms. I feel that they triggered a reaction of my existing conditions. After the 3/12 dose, it was 4-5 days before I felt better. I also had on day one a tightness in my chest that I had not had before with the 1st dose where it felt harder to breathe, and a had an intermittent cough. I am today on the 3rd day after the shot, and I'm still having side effects. Fatigue, body aches, joint pain, and I've a new one which is a rash on the center of my chest that feels like it may go up under my chin but I'm not sure yet as it hasn't yet as its right under the hollow of my throat. I have also had very painful areas around my clavicle, in the back of my neck, and I believe I can feel some of my lymph nodes. Since I've had the shot, it is very difficult with these areas of pain despite my normal stretching routine are not releasing. I am hoping that these side effects will resolve like the first dose did in a couple more days.

I was given the vaccine in the right upper arm. I picked that arm due to PHN in my left trigininal nerve from shingles. They gave me the vaccine and I proceeded to move my car to the 30 minute waiting area. I put the car in park and suddenly I felt dizzy. Like I was looking through a magnifying glass backwards. Since I have a reaction to Xolair in 12/15/2021 I had been extra cautious. This hit my quickly. It felt like I had a ton of weight on my chest. It progressed quickly to where I felt like I couldn't breath. The staff was watchful. They called an ambulance. They monitored me there but it was like I could not wake up. I wanted to fall asleep. My blood pressure was higher than normal at one point during my ER visit I looked up and my blood pressure was 137/91. I felt like I had when I had a many stroke in 2019 my speech was slower I couldn't get the words out. My toes and finger were cold. They transported me to the ER for observation. It was that that the head ache only in my right frontal lobe started and my arm and neck on the right side began to hurt. Within about 1.5 hours I began to wake up from the fog and my speak cleared up. While laying on the bed my fingers were curling up. As the speech returned that hands warmed up.and my fingers began to release. The staff at the clinic had given me benadryl within about 20 minutes of the vaccine. Upon release I was droggy and like a huge adrenal rush had worn off. I had slight stuffy nose and like I had a severe hay fever reaction that I was coming down from last night. This hit me quick and hard. The ER said I had a stress reaction and a head ache of unknown cause as all of my blood work came back normal. But honestly at one point I felt paralyzed. Even today I feel stuffier than I normally do. Like I have a slight asthma attack. I know my blood oxygen was 97 % at one point and I can tell when it drops even a precent

It wouldn't let me add this, but it was my first Pfizer shot. I started feeling dizzy within the first 30 minutes, and didn't think much of it. Went home and just under 3 hours later, started to feel strange. I felt almost drunk, like my brain was fuzzy. Even more dizzy. Then my tongue swelled. I then had palpitations and felt my heart jump. The palpitations came and went a few times through the night. I couldn't sleep and experienced some slurring. I then took aspirin and tried to drink a lot of water. I felt scared so asked my parents to call every hour to make sure i was alive. I didn't think to call 911 because I felt so out of it. I had a mild headache that went from my forehead to the back, but it felt more strange than anytthing. The next morning my tongue had several bites all along the edges and top of the edges. I then got hives on my face, on Sunday, April 11. I took benadryl and put cortizone cream on. I took benadryl again on 4/12. I'm still dizzy and slightly short of breath. i have an appointment with an immunologist for thursday.

Today it gradually dissipated (the tongue and throat swelling), and now is almost back to the usual state. My throat and arm are both still sore, but the allergic reaction has calmed down. I do have an epi-pen and I do have Benadryl (pill form). I plan to take the Benadryl soon, but thought I should perhaps email prior (it will likely put me to sleep)."

I received the vaccine without incident on the 19th. I began to feel fatigued and sore arm at the vaccine on Thursday into Friday. I skipped the gym due to fatigue and arm discomfort (figured normal). Slept 12 + hours Thursday night, Friday night and Saturday night. Sunday morning still very fatigued and tired. Noticed my Garmin fitbit shows heart rate down to 50. Not sure if the low heart rate and fatigue are related. I had to rest after watering lawn yesterday and Friday (not normal for me) and chocked it up to fatigue. However I had to sit down while preparing homemade spaghetti sauce and meatballs in the kitchen this morning (also not normal) and with conversation on phone winded /cough when talking (also not normal). I have had tachycardia related to medicine in the past and stopped (antibiotic and cymbalta), never had a low heart rate. Wanted to report to help others if any correlation. Have concerns about receiving the second dose of vaccine. Years ago, 1992 I received the Hepatitis B Vaccine for nursing school and first shot was fine, second shot had severe fatigue and immunity levels were checked --was told at that time to not receive the 3rd dose as my levels were off the chart (immune response level). Not sure if there's a similar test to check this before receiving the 2nd dose. Thank you.

Soft tissue neck x-ray was obtained and that showed some possible airway inflammation and therefore CT scan will be done to more effectively characterize the findings. Patient received potassium replacement as well as additional Ativan. She will also be given some IV fluids since she remains slightly tachycardic. That could be lingering effects of the epinephrine The patient's D-dimer was normal. She felt better after Antivert and Lopressor. Heart rate remained below 100 and but other vital signs were normal. Dizziness was better Diagnosis/Disposition Adverse reaction to vaccine Patient Instructions Drink plenty of fluids. Watch for worsening symptoms of difficulty swallowing, shortness of breath, facial swelling. Antivert for dizziness. Work note for tomorrow. Recheck with your doctor sometime within the next 3 weeks to see if you should get the second dose of the vaccine. Return to the emergency department if worse or new symptoms.

After the second Pfizer shot, I had no reactions until 12 hours later. After 12 hours (1am), I woke up and my skin/body was achy, which lasted about 24+ hours. I was tired and napped and slept 12 hours that next night. I didn't have a registered fever, but I was cold and had long sleeves/pants and blankets on me while it was hot outside (high 70's/low 80's). The one symptom that I don't hear about and scared me, was when I breathed normally, I didn't notice anything, . . . but when I tried to take deep breaths, it felt like there was an elephant sitting on my chest. This breathing difficulty started at about 30 hours after the second shot (8pm). By the morning time, it was a small elephant, and by 48 hours after the second shot, it seemed to be mostly gone. This one scared me while it was happening and I was praying hard! I felt the pressure on my chest like COVID patients, but thankfully, it only lasted a short time. I still haven't met someone who had the shortness of deep breath and chest pressure after the second Pfizer shot, like I did.

Second dose delayed to 5 weeks from first due to strong inflammatory response. After experiencing vasovagal syncope following the first injection, received second injection while lying down and did not have recurrence of vasovagal syncope. However, had cardiac symptoms starting a day or two later. I could not stand and talk at the same time without losing my breath and needing to sit. Any exertion made my heart race and there was an immense pressure in my chest. This resolved in ~ a week. I did not seek treatment for it and I did not have a repeat CRP taken.

She got her vaccine, she came home and was fine. Her mother had her APT and she herself was a little bit dizzy and she took her mother for her vaccine APT. Then they went to the mall and she just started not to feel good, and had a stomach ache, diarrhea and left due to her not feeling well. That night she just started to feel horrible, and at 6:22 AM was was not feeling well, and had every single symptom of the reactions, brain fog as well. She also had a fever up to 101.5 at 12:55 PM on 4/1/21. She progressed to getting sicker, shortness of breath and worsening symptoms with highest temp of 101.7. On 4/2/21 she started feeling better and her fever was normalizing and had cold sweats, and the initial symptoms of nausea would come and go and still had stomach issues for days afterwards, but the fever did not come back. Then she started having chest pains, shortness of breath that lasted for 3 weeks afterwards. She went to the UC on 4/14/21 and vomited again and got concerned that she was still having the chest pains and was getting sicker. She informed them at the UC that she believed she was having symptoms related to the vaccine and the doctor there had informed her that it could not have been related to the vaccine and "written off" and nothing else was said about the vaccine after that. She never saw a Dr., they did do an EKG and was told that it was normal and was told that she was going to send her to the ER "as she matters". She informed them that she did not want to go to the ER and was informed that she would be seen right away as she was not feeling well enough with the nausea and sick. The ER was packed and was triaged and they told her that she would be seen and none of that happened. She supposedly got triaged and had an EKG and was informed that she would be written off about it and that they were making it a political thing. She had an IV line inserted, and had blood drawn and after 2 hours nothing had been done. After about 3 1/2 hours being in the ER and after she had made a big fuss and was put in a room. They sent somebody in and informed her that she had a cardiologist in her family and a GP and if they weren't going to see her to let her go home. She was then sent in another nurse who was more understanding and he went over the EKG with her and told her that it was strange and said that her heart beat was normal, and then at some point that it skipped a bit and then had a subsequent EKG and that was abnormal as well but in a different way. Then another nurse came in and told her that they wanted to run tests every hour and never mentioned to admit her, for her to stay in the ER but did not feel they were comfortable sending her home, and that her shortness of breath was concerning to her. She was progressively feeling worse and was not seen by a cardiologist and they sent her home to FU with one. She went to see a cardiologist and by then it was documented that there were some people were having heart issues from the vaccine. He then ordered her an echocardiogram and a stress test, and then did not hear anything from the office. They had not gotten an authorization from the insurance company and she called her insurance company and they informed them that she was approved and that she is to have an urgent stress test. At this point she does not know what's going on. Subsequent to the vaccine she has had normal EKG's for 5 years, and now since the vaccine she has not felt well, she has insomnia, anxiety, fatigue, depression, shortness of breath and chest pains every day and has abnormal EKG's. She has been given prescribed Prilosec only, nothing for her heart and acid/reflux heartburn medications. She was also given anxiety medication that she takes prn. She is scheduled for Friday, 6/18/21. She has been given prescribed Prilosec only, nothing for her heart and acid/reflux heartburn medications. She was also given anxiety medication that she takes prn. She is scheduled for Friday, 6/18/21. She is a caretaker of a 93 year old father, and has not had the sense of taste and smell for over a year, and believes that she had COVID in the spring of 2020 and has the metallic taste as well. She is having severe chest pain and is concerned and scared that something is going to happen to her and she will not be able to take care of him. She was not tested, but had tried but they would not test her at clinic and did not go and get tested as she did not want to take the chance to get the virus. She did have a test done this year and was informed that it was negative. She is scared that this could be a long-term condition and she is terrified that these symptoms will not go away at all. She was exposed back in 2015 of a very bad gas leak and now her father has asthma, and they believe that is related to the gas leak, and wanting to know if that?s what she has as well. She states that she has never felt like she has been normal since taking the 2nd vaccine.

The next day(Friday) after my first Pfizer covid vaccination, in the evening around 7pm I started experiencing trouble breathing and pain in my right leg. I was also very tired.

Monday I made an appointment with my doctor for the following Wednesday March 31. I also went for a Covid test Monday at a drive through. That test was negative. By Wednesday, it was so hard to walk into my doctor appoint. I was exteremely fatigued and out of breath. My legs no longer hurt though. My doctor took one look and sent me to the hospital for several tests. The tests determinted I had several small Pulminary embolisms (in my legs) including a saddle embolism which is very danger and a couple of larger clots in my right leg. I was admitted to the hospital and put on high doses of blood thinners. I have to take eloquis for an undeterminted amount of time and wear compression socks for the next two years. My doctor also told me not to get the 2nd Pfizer Covid vaccination. She and I both think that possibly the combination of my birth control and the vaccination caused the blood clots.

I waited 15 minutes and was fine. As I was driving to my work, my injection site began to hurt severely and I felt my throat swelling, it became increasingly difficult to swallow. My tongue felt larger and my lips and face began to feel numb. I felt flushed and I became tachycardic. It lasted about 45 seconds and then waned and then would flare again. I was able to speak and called my husband (a physician) who stayed on the phone with me while I drove to the hospital. I went straight to an outpatient unit and was given hydrocortisone IV, loratidine PO and famotidine. By the time I was on the unit, my throat only felt slightly tight with tachycardia down to 103. Following the injection of steroids, I only had one further flare of throat tightness and tachycardia that was transient lasting 30-40 seconds. Everything resolved within 40 minutes of receiving therapy. Of note, I apparently had erythema on the anterior of my neck which corresponded to the area of throat tightness.

I received the first vaccine 1/11/2021 and the second dose on 02/03/2021. On 02/16/2021 my hair fell out in clumps. I am post COVID and was Dx on 07/14/2020. I was discharged from the hospital on 09/17/2021. From my stay in the hospital on 07/14/2020 up until 02/15/2021 I had the minimum hair loss that one would loss in a day. I am not sure if the vaccines caused it , but my hair literally came out in clumps. I also started experiencing heart palpitations along with SOB in the evenings after the first vaccine. Upon the second week in February, I started experiencing the palpitations and SOB in the evenings. Again, I am not sure if the vaccines caused this as I am post COVID.

Medical history included exposure to sars-cov-2 in Dec2020 (Her mother ended up positive for Covid and she was exposed to her and showed symptoms). There were no concomitant medications. On 03Feb2021, the patient experienced felt like she had Covid plus the flu with outcome of recovered on 05Feb2021, very congested chest with outcome of recovered on 06Feb2021, flu like symptoms with outcome of recovered on 05Feb2021, chest pain with outcome of recovered on 05Feb2021, cough with outcome of recovered on 06Feb2021, shortness of breath with outcome of recovered on 06Feb2021. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included oxygen saturation: normal on an unspecified date, sars-cov-2 antibody test: positive on an unspecified date. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of felt like she had covid plus the flu, flu like symptoms. The events were described as follows: Patient said that she had some weird side effects from the 2nd vaccine, but not the first dose and believes that she had Covid in Dec2020. Patient said that she had flu like symptoms, she said it felt like she had Covid plus the flu. She said that she also had chest pain, a very congested chest, a cough, and shortness of breath. She did not have that with Covid. She said that her symptoms came on about 10 hours after the vaccination and were gone within 48 hours. Patient said that she does not know if having Covid so recently plays into it at all. Patient said that she received the last dose on 03Feb2021 at 1130. Patient said that the phlegm started in her throat and she had the chills. She woke up with the whole shebang. She stated that it got worse by the next day. She said that she did not feel a thing from the first injection and had no side effects. She never tested positive for Covid in Dec2020. Her mother ended up positive for Covid and she was exposed to her and showed symptoms. She had exhaustion vertigo, and general feeling of being unwell with Covid. She had all of that again, but she was told not to expect anything respiratory. She got concerned with the chest pain, cough, phlegm, and shortness of breath. She saw the doctor on 05Feb2021 and she was instructed not to take anything because it could affect the vaccine, but her symptoms went away within 48 hours. She said that she felt like the congestion felt like a allergic reaction for her, said that it was hard to swallow, and had a lot of phlegm in her throat. She said that it is not inherently different if you were allergic to flowers. Chest pain she described like you are full of phlegm and like there is inflammation. Shortness of breath: Feel panicky when you try to breath and you feel the phlegm. Patient said that when she gets sick she does have a tendency to get upper respiratory infections. Like with a cold that she would end up with a cough that would linger a little bit. She still thinks getting the vaccine was worth it. She just wished that it would have been a listed side effect, because when it is not, you panic. Most people are worried about the shortness of breath. She reported that her O2 levels were ok when she checked. Doctor gave her a vitamin IV to make her feel better. Told her that her lungs were clear and it was all upper respiratory.

About 10 mins post vaccine my throat started to feel tight and almost numb.....then I was having difficulties swallowing, as if there was a lump in my throat......a few mins later my inner ears felt like they were burning and I felt pressure. I asked staff if symptoms were a side effect of vaccine at 15 minute mark from waiting period. They had me sit back down for another 15 mins and paramedic come see me. I told him I felt fine other than my throat feeling like it was as getting tighter and the difficulty swallowing. He offered to take my stats and I asked him to wait to see if symptoms would dissipate. After approx 49 mins of waiting from initial shot dose, my heart felt like it was racing and my throat felt tighter and I was now having a much harder time swallowing and I felt lightheaded. They took me back and hooked me up to get my vitals. About 7 mins later they brought an EPI Pen and I administered the shot in my leg. After approx 10mins +/- I began to feel my throat loosening a little. Then over the next 10 mins or so I felt almost normal with little trouble swallowing. They told me that I needed to go to the ER for further Eval. I arrived at ER approx 15 mins later and they gave me 2 Benadryl and 2 steroid pills and monitored me for the next 4 hrs - I was released shortly after - and again no other pain or side effects after EPI Pen and meds they administered. Sent home with EPI Pen and Steroids and instructions on what to watch for.

Patient is a 48yo female presenting for her second COVID-19 Vaccine. She reported a prior reaction with first dose of COVID-19 vaccine, with throat tightening and some chest tightness onset approximately 13 min after receiving the first vaccine dose. She took oral Benadryl and was monitored by EMS with complete resolution of symptoms after approximately 20 minutes. She did not require transport or hospital evaluation but saw her allergist for evaluation prior to presenting today for second dose. She was advised by her allergist to proceed with second dose of vaccine given her comorbidities and risks associated with COVID-19 infection. This medical evaluator reviewed risks with her, and possibility for allergic/adverse reaction with her second dose of the vaccine, and she chose to proceed with vaccine. She was initially doing well and was positioned next to EMS for close monitoring. Approximately 20-25 minutes after receiving second dose of the vaccine, she started to have a dry persistent cough, with some upper airway wheezing, no stridor or retractions, with auscultated normal breath sounds and good air exchange however with noted slight increase in respiratory effort and pale skin color, no diaphoresis. She took oral benadryl 25mg at 11:27am, but cough persisted and she developed lightheadedness and was transferred to the ambulance from her personal vehicle.10L oxygen was placed by nasal cannula. Within a few minutes, cough improved and skin color improved. Breath sounds continued to be clear with good air exchange. No wheezing or stridor or retractions were noted during this evaluation. She was transferred to another stretcher and oxygen removed, to allow for transport to the hospital via another ambulance. Within a few minutes off oxygen, cough returned. She was then transferred to local hospital for further monitoring and evaluation.

I was asked to reach out to you and notify you regarding my allergic reaction to my second dose of the Pfizer vaccine. I had my first dose on Tuesday, February 16, 2021 in the morning and experienced soreness in the left arm and pain with moving it for a day or two starting Tuesday night. I also had chills Tuesday night, chills, body ache and diarrhea Wednesday night and chills and fever, Sunday evening onwards for a few days. All was good and then I had my second dose on Tuesday, March 9, 2020 in the afternoon. I had a very sore Left arm, considerable pain in the Left Axilla, chills, fatigue, headache, light headedness, body ache and a fever Tuesday night onwards that lasted a few days. Friday evening I developed itching which had increased considerably and I got some hives and a rash Saturday onwards with throat restrictions, left greater than right. Benadryl, Claritin, Zyrtec did not provide any relief and I was unable to have clothes on due to the increased itching. I went to the Urgent Care on Sunday and they put me on Famotidine along with Cetrizine and emollients, and Benadryl at night, to no avail. On Monday I saw my PCP who examined me and started me on 5 mg Prednisone which did not help and after consulting with an Allergist, I was put on a course of 20 mg a day for 2 days, 10 mg a day for 2 days and then 5 mg a day for 2 days. The itching decreased and finally subsided by this past Saturday. The body aches are there (some) but I can handle all of that. The itching was crazy. I know that I will do Great!! Thank You for your kind time and for all you do. Have a great week. Happy Spring!! Kindest Regards, patient" Other Relevant History:

The day after receiving the shot I developed pain in my entire arm from armpit to fingers. Pain became severe by day 3. Pain spread to my right breast, neck, back, and right scapular area. I have had numbness in my fingers on right side. Today is 16 days. The pain increased every day for about 10 days. Decreases slightly and is now holding. I'm am in terrible pain. I didn't sleep for 6 days when the pain was at is peak and still can barely sleep. It's the worst pain of my life. It feels like my arm is in fire and in a meat grinder. My arm and neck pain worsens when I use my arm or change positions. I am also getting flushed heat feelings on my face intermittently. Since this vaccine I have had allergic reactions to ibuprophen and prednisone which sent me to the ER. Two medications I have received before with no problem. I also felt I was reacting to gargling with listerine which I have used before without issue. I eat eggs regularly and got a small sensation of throat swelling with that too and have not eaten them again. My doctor is having trouble treating me since I am now having so many allergy symptoms to different things. I have been advised by my doctor not to continue with this vaccine or any vaccine in the future. I am still in terrible pain that is limiting me from participating i. my normal life activities. I did not develop any rashes or obvious swelling at the injection site. Twenty minutes after receiving the shot I did get a bit flush feeling and some redness in my face and my ears felt hot and then cold. That resolved within about 45 minutes.

On 3/15/21 approximately 4 hours (8PM) after receiving the second vaccine I noticed a loud ringing in my ears. This has continued since at varying tones and volumes. It is centered in the middle of my head, not in one ear or the other. It ranges from the sound of a running toilet to the sound of cicadas. It is constant, varying in intensity throughout the day. Occasionally the intensity seems to cause difficulty breathing , difficulty focusing, and fatigue. Additionally, it seems to be disrupting my ability to sleep.

Approximately 40 minutes after administration of the medication, general statement to another staff member that she was feeling itchy. This other staff member reported it to me. I assessed staff member and her complaints were that her throat was feeling tight and that her arms were itchy and she felt anxious and hot. No rash noted. Staff member was given a fan to cool off and she kept insisting that she was fine. Benadryl 50mg was given po at her request at approximately 50 minutes after vaccine. About 75 minutes later, she states she feels like it may be getting worse. I phoned NP and called EMS. Staff member had her own Epi pen (states she asked for it when she had a reaction to Amoxicillin a while back). While on the phone with EMS dispatcher, and staff member was answering questions, it was decided to have staff member to go ahead and do her Epi pen auto inject. It was injected by herself in her Right outer thigh. Almost immediately staff member states that she felt better. EMS arrived a short time later, approximately 12 minutes, staff member states felt better, with no further feelings of her throat being tight or itchy. BP was elevated at 170/90 as per EMS. Staff member refused to go to ER to be evaluated as she states "I am much better now." Staff member continued to stay at work for another 30 mins and allowed a fellow staff member to follow her home. I also checked on her at 745pm via phone and she states that she is just sleepy.

About 3 weeks after my first dosis of the Pfizer vaccine, I started having constant numbness in both arms, hands and right legs, dizziness, pins and needles, extreme fatigue, lethargy, feeling the pulse of my heart rate in various part so my body in an opressive kind of way like in my throat, under my right breast, in my back on the ribs usually. All these symptoms never subsided and became noticeably worse a few days after my second dosis on April 8th. My arms are always numb when I get up and become worse when hanging down, of course, but with different intensity. I am feeling extremely dizzy as I walk around and unstable. Walking feels like the ground is further than it is in a way. I do notice a slight shortness of breath but more of an oppression in the rib cage than panting. I have been avoiding walking far or walking my dogs all together. I am not seeing any improvements even after my visit to the Urgency Care where nothing wrong was found on blood work and EKG. I was told to reduce inflammation with dietary supplement and some vitamins. I cannot work of course and what is a bit frightening now is that I am not improving on day 8 of my second dosis! Same rotation of weird symptoms all day (feeling my blood not circulating normally if that can be described even, numbness, pins and needles in arms, and right leg. Sometimes it affects my right cheek. Dizziness and unstability to walk around. Vision is lower as well. Too weak to do anything constructive. My legs feel like they are not reliable (never have had that feeling at my age). It is more than feeling like a zombie, it is feeling too weak to do anything and my head is sometimes spinning. The numbness can be painful as a sudden thrust in an arm ( this does not last more than a few seconds). It has now been going on since week 3 of my first dosis and today is day 7 of my second dosis! I had 0 symptoms on the first 2 weeks of my vaccine, dosis one. Now, I don't see any progress, rather a slight worsening of all the symptoms above. It is freakish not knowing what I have, of course. One can imagine, so stress adds to the mix sometimes during the day. I would not dare to even go walk my dogs now. A short grocery store visit at the most.

On Monday, 4/12/21, I was given the 2nd dose of the vaccine. There were no immediate symptoms other than a sore arm (from injection site) later that day. Tuesday morning, my left arm was swollen and I experience joint pain in my fingers and wrist. The following afternoon, I began to feel extremely tired and had vertigo. I laid down and slept the entire evening; still feeling the joint pain. The following Wednesday morning, I woke up to a swollen arm with a knot at the injection site, blisters, body rashes, and whelps under my breast and whelps on my shoulder, legs, and feet. I was even more exhausted. I took Benadryl for the rash and Advil for the pain. Thursday, I continued to develop rashes that would come and go on the left side of my body and upper chest. Friday, still experiencing the inflammation and pain, I visited my doctor who told me to continue taking the Benadryl and OTC pain meds. For good measure, we ordered a d-dimer test. Over the weekend, in addition to the other symptoms, I began to have a lot or ringing in my ears, a backache (throbbing sensation), and my hands began to painfully swell with blisters. I could only taste the salt or sugar in foods and was extremely tired. Monday morning, I received a call from my doctor advising me that the d-dimer test came back extremely high (1.23) and needed to have a vascular ultrasound to check for blood clots. I visited an ER and had the test done. No clots were found but I continue to experience ringing in my ears, severe pain in my back that limits my ability to walk and breathe, swelling of various extremities, a rash (and itching), and overall inflammation. The Benadryl isn?t working nor is the OTC pain medication. My doctor has prescribed Prednisone.

Throat felt like it was closing up. Tightness in chest similar to the feel during an asthma attach. Neither resulted in wheezing or extreme difficulty to breath that required immediate attention. Watering of the mouth similar to when you are about to vomit (gum helped with this). Swelling of the hands, feet and legs. For my hand I could push in on the skin which would leave an indent and slowly began to fill back out. I also noticed blurry vision when trying to read while waiting my 15-20 minutes at the location. None of these required immediate medical attention and occurred fairly quickly after the injection and appeared to resolve in 3-4 hours. I reached out to my primary care provider a few days later to determine if I should get the 2nd vaccine. He indicated that it sounded like an allergic reaction and asked if I reported to VAERS.

This is a spontaneous report from a contactable physician. A 48-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) at the age of 48-year-old, dose 2 via an unspecified route of administration on 17Mar2021 (Lot Number: EN6198) as single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included Huntington's disease diagnosed in 1995, due to this her voice crackles a bit. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. The patient was previously vaccinated with the first dose of BNT162B2 (lot number: EL9263) at the age of 48-year-old, for COVID-19 immunisation and she experienced 4 days of severe nausea, vomiting, couldn't get out of bed, couldn't eat, and diarrhea. The patient got her second dose on 17Mar2021 and had worsening of nausea, vomiting and fatigue on an unspecified date. The patient couldn't keep food down, can't sleep and keeps falling down, and he states "that really concerns me, she's going to knock her teeth out or bleed in her brain, that's not good". She's barely able to get around, doesn't leave unless she has a doctor's appointment. The problem is this, it's not the vaccine, it's the genetic modification this patient has Huntington's disease she was told it was safe, but don't think they took into consideration that it's a genetic modification and she has Huntington's which was also the genetic modification, don't know what to do at this point. He mentions that her nausea and dizziness was getting worse now that were a month out. She's falling down more than before. He wants to help her keep down food because she lost approximately 10% of her body weight. She's dizzy and weak, he states "she's wiped out, not sleeping". He also mentions that she's had hospitalizations. The reported was asking what do to next and if there was an on-staff physician for special cases. Patient reports going to the hospital 8 days after the second shot, she wasn't eating or sleeping. The second shot of Pfizer COVID vaccine was on 17Mar2021, patient began having severe vertigo, falling down, breathing hard, afraid she was going to knock her teeth out or break a bone, insomnia on an unspecified date. Patient reports she took a sip of water and threw up all over the side of the car today 20Apr2021. The Doctor states that this was not normal for her. Patient and reporter stated that the patient has lost between 10-15 lbs, about 10% of body weight. Reporter states that Ivermectin comes in custom lozenges and that it gets rid of inflammation so that it doesn't hurt the whole body. Ivermectin can make the GI upset. Caller states that it was not actually a vaccine that Pfizer was offering, reporter explains that Huntington Disease was when there was a repetitive code in the DNA, to the point it effects muscles and nerves and renders you. What Pfizer and Moderna was offering was a genetic modifier, mRNA was a genetic modifier, not a vaccine. In a Vaccine, they take a piece, make sure its dead, expose it to you and your body makes an antigen, that's a typical vaccine but this is not. Patient says Friday Saturday and Sunday she was stuck in the house. She cannot do anything. Reporter says the patient needs professional help. Her voice fluctuates so people take her seriously. (institute name), told the patient it would be ok to take the Pfizer COVID vaccine, but they didn't take into consideration is it was a genetic modifier. This was not a typical vaccine. Reporter states that he needs help escalating this please help with escalating this, needs help to know what to do for this patient because of the MRNA genetic modification. The mRNA may have affected the Huntingtons. The events resulted to hospitalization except for vertigo and breathing hard. The outcome of the events was unknown.; Sender's Comments: A possible contributory effect of suspect BNT162B2 on reported events 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.

Heart palpitations, shortness of breath, lymph nodes swollen. I went to my PCP on 4/14 due to severe shortness of breath. I went to urgent care on 4/15 for severe shortness of breath. At the urgent care the did a chest X-ray and EKG and they were both fine. The doctor prescribed a 5 day course of prednisone to calm the inflammation down in my lungs. After two days of taking the prednisone the shortness of breath was worse. On 4/19 I went to the Emergency Room because of the shortness of breath and pain in my back and sides. The doctor ordered a CT Scan of my chest and lungs and labs. The test showed no blood clots but the blood test that determines if you have a clot or that will lead a doctor to get a CT Scan was elevated. The doctor said I was basically ok because I did not have any blood clots. She said I was experiencing some type of respiratory issue. On 4/22/21 I saw an allergist to see if I had some type allergic reaction to the vaccine. My allergist said there was no way to test the components in the vaccine but he did test me for other things. On 4/26/21 I followed up with my PCP and he gave me Maloxicam and a pain medication to take if I needed it. I was in so much pain in my sides that I couldn?t put my arms down comfortably. I continued taking two Tylenol?s every 6 hours. On 4/30/21 I saw my pulmonologist to discuss my symptoms and he talked about the prednisone suppressing my immune system so the one shot that I did get won?t really cover me. He changed my inhaler earlier this year and he said he should have left it where it was because of the time of year and my allergies. My allergist put me back on symbicort and my pulmonologist agrees and he want to keep me on it until next year. I started to feel better on 5/1/2021/ . I did not get the second vaccine because I was afraid. I have never been so sick in my entire life and none of the doctors could really tell me what happened.

Symptoms & time course 03/31/21: Within 2-3 min after taking the Covid-19 Pfizer shot in my left upper arm, my entire arm became nearly 80% immobilized ( I felt that I was going to lose my arm movement completely but it came back). In about 5 min time, I felt a strong stomach disturbance (something like stomach diarrhea) briefly for a few seconds, and then my heart rate increased suddenly a lot and I felt a strong gush of heat coming out of my face and upper half of the body, and then I started to feel unwell. I also felt moderate pressure in my ears and the head wasn't feeling well either. My hands and fingers were trembling a lot. The paramedics checked my vitals, I think the blood pressure was around 117/62 and pulse was around 85. After another 5 minutes or so, I started to feel better. For the next 2-3 hours post-vaccination, I had felt mild symptoms of headache, nausea, and sensation of cough in the throat. Few times I also felt mild sensations of chest discomfort and that I may develop some difficulty in breathing or shortness of breath, and once I also felt a mild sensation of throat moving up and down (no throat closure), and none of these symptoms had developed to that of a higher intensity such that someone else could see them happening. About 5 hours post-vaccination (i.e. around 8:30 pm) I felt that I have a reaction going on in the body which continued for an hour. About 6 hours post-vaccination (i.e. around 9:30 pm), I felt that the reaction that was occurring in the body had ended with the skin on both of my arms becoming red in color and the skin texture was looking like that of a burnt skin (I did not take a picture of the arm with skin redness). The whole-left-arm had swollen relatively more than the whole-right-arm and I also noted mild swelling in the left arm wrist and palm. Also, a large part of the muscle just above the elbow on the left arm had swollen a lot (appearing like a bump) with muscle stiffness, and this muscle bump was mildly painful if you apply pressure on to it. There were also some mildly painful nodules in the upper left arm and the arm muscles generally appeared to be hardened. The veins & some arteries also appeared more prominent in the left arm compared to the right arm. I had noted that the swelling and redness in both the arms had started to decrease after 30 min of appearing and got reduced a lot more after about 2 hours (i.e. 11:30 pm). There was also a very mild facial swelling at night and I had felt feverish for about 25 min or so. 04/01/21 Next day early morning (i.e. 6 am) I noted abdominal or stomach bloating of higher magnitude, and I wasn't feeling very well with some mild sensations of throat moving up and down and a feeling that I may develop shortness of breath but these symptoms did not develop in higher intensity and began to subside after about an hour. As the day progressed, I started to feel better and by afternoon all of the symptoms were better except that the swelling and a hive (or muscle bump) on the left arm were still present. I also had moderate soreness around the site of injection in the upper left arm. 04/02/21 Next day morning the swelling and hive (or muscle bump) in the upper left arm were getting better but had not completely gone. By the end of the day the arm swelling had mostly subsided and the large muscle bump in the upper arm had reduced in size but still present with a mild pain. The left upper arm soreness around the site of injection had reduced. 04/03/21 & 04/04/21 The hive or (muscle bump) in the upper left arm was highly reduced in size but still present with a mild pain on applying pressure. 04/05/21 I felt some minor chest discomfort and minor pain repeatedly for a few seconds during the afternoon hours while at work. These symptoms subsided by evening hours. 04/06/21 I felt a mild chest congestion with a little bit of phlem in the chest at night which then got better after an hour or so. 04/14/21 I noted a rash on the left side of the lower neck (just above the shoulder) which extended from the left-side of the neck towards the center of neck, at night (i.e. 11:45 pm). The intensity of redness had reduced in the next 30 min or so and the rash was nearly gone by the next day morning. Final outcomes: The allergic reaction symptoms that I had developed after taking the first dose of Covid-19 vaccine from Pfizer-BioNTech had mostly resolved on their own in a week. I did not take any medications to help relieve the allergy symptoms. Concerns and queries: 1) Would it be safe for me to take a second dose of Covid-19 vaccine from Pfizer-BioNTech? 2) Would an anti-allergy medication be helpful to take before receiving a second dose of Covid-19 vaccine from Pfizer-BioNTech? 3) Is it safe to receive a Covid-19 vaccine from a different company (e.g. Johnson & Johnson or Novavax)? I am presently partially vaccinated.

headache; fatigue; dyspnea; chest pain; RV infarction; a large amount of clot in the RCA; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable physician.

Medical history included chronic smoker 2 packs per day. Patient was not pregnant at the time of vaccination. Concomitant medications within 2 weeks of vaccination included paracetamol (TYLENOL) and ibuprofen.

Around 8:30 in the morning of May 18 2021, my mother was not feeling well and had a headache since she got the second dose of the COVID vaccine the previous day on May 17, 2021 at 2:00pm. She decided to take 2 Tylenol pills, 500 mg each. After a few minutes of taking the pills she developed a sever allergic reaction. Her headache pain was increasing and eventually her face started to swell up immensely. Her body developed a rash and she started to feel itchy. I called 911, and the ambulance said her vitals were okay, however I decided to take her to the clinic here and they gave her another shot in her leg to "block" (as the doctor described) the reaction. Additionally, the doctors there decided to send her to the hospital right away and they did more tests that the Doctor can describe further. She did stay overnight in the hospital, and with the treatments she received, her symptoms have gone down.

The first dose was received on 29Mar2021(lot number: ER8730) on the left arm, and experienced sore arm and tired. Medical history included ongoing outbreaks on lips. Concomitant medication(s) included valacyclovir. Patient went to the emergency room on 21Apr2021 with chest pain that started on 20Apr2021. She was put through tests and the medical staff didn't know what was wrong and was discharged on 22Apr2021 and went back to the emergency room with chest pain on Friday, 23Apr2021. The medical staff could not figure out what was causing her chest pain during the second emergency room trip. Patient reported that the arrhythmia occurred when she got the chest pain on 20Apr2021. If she does any sort of activity, her heart rate skyrockets and her heart beats really super fast. She will become totally short of breath and feel like her lungs were burning. She experiences the arrhythmia and shortness off breath not even with exercise, but just activity within the house. On 21Apr2021, patient had a fever, body aches, and felt like she had the flu for 3 days following the second dose of the Covid-19 vaccine. She went back to the emergency room again at a different hospital on Thursday, 29Apr2021 until 30Apr2021. She was going to see a cardiologist this on 07May2021 because she can't do anything. Her chest pain didn't start off this way, but now the patient can't be active without having chest pain, arrhythmia, feeling like something is sitting on her chest, and shortness of breath.The chest pain was initially brought on by exercise, but as of time of report, if she moves around or does too much, the chest pain will be brought on. Symptoms have changed a bit as time has gone by. If she sits still not doing anything, she will be fine. If she takes a shower, walks around her house, walks upstairs, she will experience the chest pain, shortness of breath, and feeling like something is sitting on her chest. If she does absolutely nothing like an invalid, she's ok. Event chest pain resulted in physician's office visit. Patient had EKGs (21Apr2021, 22Apr2021, 23Apr2021, 29Apr2021 and 30Apr2021), a stress test (22Apr2021), CT of the chest (21Apr2021), CT of the heart and arteries on (30Apr2021), X-rays, and echocardiograms (22Apr2021 and 29Apr2021) which were all of the diagnostic tests have come back normal. There was no way that she could do a stress test now. Her fatigue began the day after she received the second dose of the Covid-19 vaccine on 21Apr2021. Fatigue was the most intense the first couple of days when she felt like she couldn't get out of bed but she still gets tired very easily. It was worse in the sense that now she has no fever and yet still can't function normally. Her arm began hurting on 20Apr2021 and was sore for about a week. Patient had covid-19 screening on Apr2021: negative. Outcome of the events of arrhythmia, chest pain, shortness of breath and fatigue was not recovered, while for the remaining events was recovered.

She got her vaccine, they had her wait an additional 15 minutes. She had tingling sensation the entire time and she went home. Around 5:27 she looked at her arm, it was bruised, it felt like alligator skin, rough to touch when she touched it and started to get little blisters around it. It looks like her skin is burnt like she had been in a fire. She went to the Medical Center and they told her that it was a local reaction and outlined it with a marker, and gave her an ice pack, which seemed to make it worse. They gave her Naproxen and then she decided to leave as they didn't do anything, and said that she said it was a local reaction and that was going to get the second vaccine. She went home so on 5/20/21 she went to Hospital. She saw DO in the ER. She had chest pain, shortness of breath and two very large blisters on her arm with fluid in it when she was seen there. She was informed that whoever gave her the vaccine did not go in far enough and that they gave her the vaccine in the tissue and not the muscle. They did EKG, and they did blood work to see that it was no blood clots or in her lymph nodes, and said that it was a severe reaction from the vaccination, and that they had never seen anything like that before. 0n 5/21/21 she went to her PCP, she drained the numerous blisters that she had on her arm, she prescribed her Clindamycin, Motrin 600 mg, a skin cream Kenalog, she also gave her some aquaphor cream as well. She does not feel that this has helped much. Even after she drained the blisters, which the fluid was clear. She has been taking numerous pictures. The blisters came back, not as large but came back. The blisters would drain when she would take a shower and it was tannish in color and she called her PCP who told her to continue to take the antibiotics. She also bought some OTC cream, and an aloe vera plant which seems to be helping. She says that the dark skin has peeled off and the skin is pinkish and raw looking, which is a large area on her arm where every bump was. She said that the area is really really bad and is embarrassed to show her arm.

The day of the vaccine I had the return of the dry cough, which I previously with COVID-19. I also had mild chest pains. I had fatigue and felt sleepy. Within the first 24 hours of the vaccine, I had burning in the eyes. Within the next week I had more fatigue and sleepiness. Within a few weeks I had a more intermediate cough. The cough was not every day but every few days. About a month after the vaccine, I have had a cough every day. The worsening of other conditions, in late February into March, I had worsening of restless legs. I also had increased of my asthma symptoms which I had to increase my medication for the asthma. I had chest tightness until April 10th. On April 29th, I had increased fatigue and montenect jerk of my arm and legs. After a week or so of those symptoms, I saw my Rheumatologist she put me on a steroid of 6 days. The abnormal fatigues and fatigue improved after I started the steroid. I still have a little fatigue and intermediate dry cough. Also, with had a symptom of monocular diplopia, the doctor I saw thinks that was to the increased dry eye symptom. I think the symptoms have increase my autoimmune system to flare up. I still have to use the inhaler also more than I use too.

I went to chemo therapy in 2018 for colon cancer after colon resection surgery. During chemo my first port failed and caused a huge blood clot in my neck and left arm. I have had three other events in my life of having blood clots, I did not know getting the vaccine would make me so susceptible for more. I got a huge blood clot in my neck and another one in my left arm after receiving the vaccination, my left arm swelled up huge at the elbow, with pain. Blood clots are not always painful for me, depends on where it?s at. I also have swollen lymph nodes in my armpits from the vaccine, confirmed by my oncologist. I went to the ER for the blood clots and again returned two days later to make sure I did not have PE, however the nodules in my lungs had enlarged and my lymph nodes are swollen. This is well after two weeks after I got the second dose of the vaccine, however, the blood clots take time to get as big as they are, so this probably started after the first injection, perhaps just got worse after the second one. I am now stuck on blood thinners forever because of this vaccine, I will not be getting any more of these shots.

The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. Patient stated she got the second shot on 01May2021 and she did not experience the funny feeling and had nothing at the injection site. Sunday was okay. Monday morning around 7am she started having severe chest pain and shortness of breathe and couldn't breathe. It was getting more and more severe. She had an appointment and the Nurse Practitioner said next time don't stay home and go to an ER if you feel all that pain. So on Tuesday she said let me get out of the house and go to the appointment. Someone that understood saw her and thought she didn't look well and ambulance people said she did not look well and they wanted her to go to the ER. She said she would watch it because she had a similar reaction with the first one but it was in her back. They checked her out and said it is the vaccine because she was not having this severity of anything before and they wanted to take her to the ER. They took her information and she said let me watch it and see. She continued to her appointment and it got worse and worse and in the evening after the appointment they had to take her to the ER because she thought she was having a heart attack. At the ER they drew troponin, which was normal, and another lab (she could not identify) that was high and they thought she may have had a blood clot so they did a CT with contrast and it was negative for blood cot, so they ruled out a blood clots in her lungs. Patient reported that while she was out for her errands and appointments, someone was concerned for her on the street because she was very short of breath and having difficulty standing. Patient reported that there was a fire department ambulance parked close by. It reported that the paramedics assisted her into the ambulance and took her pulse ox and blood pressure.

Caller reported that she did not want to have to pay the bill for the ambulance, so she declined transport to the emergency room. Caller reported that she want to another appointment. Caller reported that the pain was there and was severe, but she pushed through with the thought in the back of her head that the chest pain would not continue.

Caller reported that around 4:00 PM or 5:00 PM on 03May2021, the chest pain was not going away and she was concerned for her heart. Caller reported that she was taken over to the emergency room. Caller reported that while she was in the emergency room, she was trying to tell the staff that she had gotten the Covid-19 vaccine. Caller reported that the emergency room staff was more concerned about doing things and wanted to give her aspirin. Caller reported that she refused the aspirin and told the emergency room staff to do lab tests first. Caller reported that her troponin came back and the emergency room staff said that her heart was ok at that time. Caller reported that she was still short of breath and her O2 sat was very low while she was in the emergency room on 03May2021. Caller reported that another lab test was very high. Caller reported that she was not kept overnight in the emergency room. Caller reported that she came home after leaving the emergency room and the chest pain was there during the night on 03May2021. Caller reported that on 04May2021 around midday, the chest pain started subsiding but she was still sore breathing in and out. Caller reported that by Thursday, 06May2021, there was just soreness in her chest and by Friday, 06May2021, she was fine and back to baseline. Caller reported that the emergency room physician informed her that her side effects may be something to do with the Covid-19 vaccine. Caller reported that it has to be the Covid-19 vaccine that caused her side effects. Event chest pain required a visit to Emergency Room, no event required a visit to Physician Office. The outcome of events were reported as recovered on 07May2021.

Ever since I got the vaccine I have felt like I'm going to jump out of my skin. My anxiety level is very high and at times it is debilitating. I also had a debilitating headache for 3 weeks and the inflammation in my body was astronomical. I'm still suffering from inflammation and quite uncomfortable at times. I had an irregular heartbeat for several weeks. Also the vaccine brought me out of menopause. I had my period every two weeks (3 times). And now my periods are back and longer than they were before. My asthma is at its worst because of the inflammation. I am uncomfortable on a daily basis because of the anxiety that has come with this shot that will not go away. It is a daily occurrence.

I went home and symptoms lingered and remained for over a week. Muscle weakness will come and go . I was driving in my car and I felt anxious and my chest very heavy and difficulty breathing. I stopped the car and was fortunate to be parked next to a fire department. They put me in an ambulance and checked my blood pressure which was high. They monitored me until my bp went down to the normal range and they allowed me to go home. For the next 6 days, I felt a constant pressure in my arm . I went to Urgent Care to seek care for the pressure on my arm. They did chest x ray and EKG- everything came back normal and to follow up with PCP. I have an appt to see my PCP. Currently I still have pressure/tension originating from left armpit to underneath arm all the way to wrist.

Note from NP at clinic 6/11/21: "She (pt.) received the shot and about 5 minutes later started to feel flushed, tachycardic, and said her throat felt "numb." She was laid down on a cot, her vitals were taken (BP 148/90 and pulse 112 apical), she was given 25mg of liquid Benadryl and symptoms resolved after about an hour. She was given instructions to contact her PCP Dr. after leaving the clinic and should symptoms return to go to the ER for further evaluation." Follow-up note from Health Department Medical Director 6/14/21: "She (pt.) told me that within 5 minutes of having the Pfizer she developed numbness of her lips and tongue and a sensation of throat numbness. She was evaluated and her BP was high and she was tachycardic and she was told to lay down. She felt some trouble breathing more with laying down and she had some nausea in addition to some itchiness of her face and neck. She was given Benadryl. She also remembers having almost an instant headache and hot feeling with her symptoms. Once the Benadryl started to take effect, she felt her breathing and tingling and itchiness was better. She did go to see her primary care that same day and her symptoms did return. She was given steroids orally and told to take Benadryl every 4 hours. She noticed that her symptoms of throat tingling and lip tingling and face and neck itchiness and splotchiness would return when she was due for Benadryl. The last time she noticed this was Saturday morning. She is still taking Benadryl every 4 hours and is no longer having any symptoms as of today."

Initially the patient was noted to have brainstem reflexes, however on 6/25 the patient had an exam change with no spontaneous breaths and pupils fixed and dilated. The initial head CT following arrest was performed which showed diffuse cerebral edema with effacement of the sulci and gray and white matter differentiation consistent with severe anoxic brain injury.

24 hours after vaccine I was short of breath, 105 fever, and it felt like coronavirus all over again. I was sick for 24 hours and then it was just gone. I also had diarrhea, racing heart, dizziness.

My lung disease (ILD) got worse since I got the vaccine as well.

Healthy, well controlled blood pressure, active 48 year old woman, avid hiker of summiting elevation, supposedly training to summit Mt. June 2021, was cancelled d/t pulmonary embolism. Been hiking elevations up to 10,000-11,000 feet weekly to 2x/week before May 5, 6, 2021. Then, the final training was to Mt. May 5, 6, 2021. Got stung by a bee with mild erythematous reaction on the dorsal area of the right thumb. Hiked to Mt. but ended, d/t to chest pain, SOB, abdominal pain. Initially thought to be caused by altitude sickness. However, when the hike was over - went home. On May 7, went for a walk and could not walk even just 5 steps without getting SOB. Thought it was post altitude sickness. Went to Urgent care d/t increasing inflammation to the right thumb caused by the bee. Given antibiotic but told the doctor there that I was having chest pain. Immediately, pulmonary embolism workup started starting with EKG. Then, D-dimer. D-dimer showed it was elevated and immediately was advised to be admitted to a hospital. Went to the hospital. CT angio with contrast was performed and showed "MULTIPLE SUBSEGMENTAL FILLING DEFECTS ON ALL " my pulmonary branches except the left lower lobe. All clotting factors and immunoglobulin studies were all negative for clotting problems and allergy to bee venom. Was given lovenox and transitioned to Apixaban. The reason I am reporting this now is because given that I had "subsegmental filling defects " in my pulmonary branches made me think that these clots have been forming for awhile, and NOT acute. The clots were exacerbated by the getting stung by a bee and the altitude. All my medical providers cannot explain the exact science or the mechanism at to what happened. However, it makes sense that this clots have been forming for awhile. I am afraid, it started right after the PFIZER covid vaccine. I would like to deny this event but this makes sense. Going to Mt. tipped me over completely. I ended up cancelling my Mt. hike. (Of note, I am a pediatric nurse practitioner as well).

I remember clearly that around 11:30AM, I started feeling odd. I couldn't hold my head up. My coworker found me and said that I was not talking clearly. I was having slurred speech. I wasn't able to get up and walk. I laid down and rest for a while. Someone drove me home because I couldn't even walk or talk. When I got home, my family took me to urgent care. The doctor there told my family that I needed to go to the ER. My symptoms at that time were that I couldn't hold my head up or open my eyes. I was having pain in the upper left side of my body. The doctor ran a CT scan and did some blood work. Around midnight, I started feeling better. My family picked me up and took me back home. The tests came back normal. The next day, I had extreme pain on my left chest area. I had shortness of breath and did not feel normal at all. I went to my cardiologist and he put me on colchicine, a lidocaine patch and a steroid pack. I had to take 10-14 days off of work because of the pain. Every now and then, during that period, I would feel like I was going to pass out. I did not pass out, but I felt like I had to hold on to something. As of today, I have experienced a similar episode, but it went away within a few minutes. I was only ironing my clothes. My main concern is that I get very short of breath, easily and that is not me. This has prevented me from performing my normal activities. I cannot sleep on my right side without feeling discomfort on my left side.

Caller states the next week she had shortness of breath, chest pain, chest tightness, and heart palpitations; Mild body ache; Inflammation around her heart; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 48-years-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE), dose 2 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 13May2021 12:15 (at the age of 48-years-old) (Batch/Lot number was not reported) as single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. There was no medical history (including any illness at time of vaccination) and concomitant medications. She has not had covid or any covid symptoms, did not have any underlying health concerns. Family Medical History Relevant to AE(s) was none. Prior Vaccinations (within 4 weeks) prior to the first administration date of the suspect vaccine(s) was none. AE(s) following prior vaccinations was none. The patient previously received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 19Apr2021 at 14.30 (at the age of 48-years-old) (Batch/Lot number was not reported) for COVID-19 immunisation and experienced puffy, swollen, and breaking out of the face, Her face broke out and eye swell up, mainly one eye, but eyes were puffy, felt like her throat was swelling, mild headache and felt nauseous. Patient received the first dose of the Pfizer COVID vaccine on 19Apr2021 and the second dose on 13May2021. After the second dose she had nausea, headaches, and body aches. The next week she had shortness of breath, chest pain, chest tightness, and heart palpitations. She went to the emergency room and her blood pressure was really high and she thinks that this was a direct correlation to the Pfizer COVID vaccine as she had never had any health issues or high blood pressure in the past. Patient states she was also told that she had swollen lymph nodes in her lungs and the doctor said this could be due to the immune response from the vaccine. Patient states she also had inflammation around her heart. She had seen a doctor and had been referred to a rheumatologist and cardiologist. Patient would like to know if any of these symptoms have been reported. Patient would like to know if her symptoms will go away or how long will they last. The patient was informed that no information in PI regarding chest tightness, chest pain, or high blood pressure being reported as side effects from the vaccine. Additional adverse reactions, some of which may be serious, may become apparent with more widespread use of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine. Patient states she was taken back by her symptoms because some of these were not mentioned as being reported in the information and there had not been any public mention of the side effects she was experiencing. Patient states she's not sure how best to navigate, she's had Pfizer vaccines, her first and second, and states she's had a lot of adverse side effects to Pfizer. Patient states when she looks at potential side effects from second dose, that's when she started having these side effects, these side effects aren't listed, and she was kind of thrown off by that, in terms of the communication to the public about what they could potentially experience with this vaccine. Patient states the Pfizer vaccine is causing adverse effects on her health and financially. Patient states she was a healthy person and we don't have adequate information for her in hopes that she will get well and when. Patient states she didn't have anything going on with her before receiving the vaccine and now she had to see all these doctors and spend money in order to figure out what was going on with her. Patient states Pfizer was supposed to be doing all this research and she felt left to research along with Pfizer to figure out what was wrong with her. Patient was disappointed that she took the vaccine because the way the information was presented regarding the vaccine and the consequences of the vaccine does not sit well with her. Patient states this could cause anyone major anxiety when talking about major organs in the body being affected. Patient states her blood pressure had been sky high and they can't figure out why. Patient states she's having to go lots of different routes to figure out what's wrong with her and why, to get to the root cause of all that's been happening since she had the vaccination. Patient states as a healthy person with no pre-existing conditions, it's costing her to deal with the side effects, and not just financially, but she's concerned with her overall health, dealing with cardiologists and rheumatologists, trying to figure out what's wrong with her, and she's never had any of these side effects before. Patient states she's trying to take the best path she can, but it doesn't feel good that the vaccine is out here, and the public, she doesn't think she should be the one in several million having this side effect, states it should be a known side effect, she thinks, by now. Patient states she knows through testing is done, but these side effects, but she feels she's been misled, and they're saying everything will be great, you may have something for the first 24-48 hours, and these are the symptoms, but states, the symptoms she's having are not on the list. Patient states they are persistent, she had her second shot like 12May 2021, 13May2021, and we're about to go into July, and she's concerned at this point, and trying to figure out what's going on with her respiratory and cardio systems. Patient states her first issues were the ones listed, she had a mild headache and was feeling nauseous, but it subsided within a day. Patient states within a week of the second dose of Pfizer, she started experiencing shortness of breath, chest tightness, chest pain, palpitations, heart was racing, and it wasn't going away, to the point she ended up going to the emergency room to be seen. Patient states they had a hard time detecting what it was, states they did notice some swollen lymph nodes in her lungs and respiratory, and they felt like what they were seeing was a result of her taking the vaccine, and her body's immune system was responding in some way. Patient states they said her blood pressure was extremely high and she's never had high blood pressure in her entire life, it was shocking to her how high her blood pressure was, and they suggested to see a doctor about that as well. Patient reports the mild headache and nauseous feeling started within a couple of days, soon after second dose, but date in unknown, in May2021. Patient states, it was what she expected, she also had a mild body ache, muscle pain, with the headache, and nauseous, happened within a couple of days of the shot, and didn't last. Patient states she doesn't know the specific date of onset of the shortness of breath, chest tightness, chest pain, palpitations, heart racing, and high blood pressure, because these things started happening and she went to the emergency room. Patient confirms she was not admitted to the hospital, they just kept her in the emergency room. Patient clarifies she has not seen rheumatologist yet, but has been referred to one. Patient clarifies they told her she has enlarged lymph nodes, multiple pulmonary lymph nodes, her blood pressure they told her was 143/111, and she's never had blood pressure that high in her life, and feels like heart still has palpitations, a lot going on with that, and the doctors are noticing some inflammation around her heart. Patient confirms the symptoms of shortness of breath, chest tightness, chest pain, palpitations, heart racing, and high pressure, are not improving, and she can't say if they have worsened, or to what extent, until a medical doctor examines her, but they are persisting. Patient declines to provide tests, states she doesn't understand why Pfizer needs to know what tests she had done, and the question would be, what is Pfizer doing to help her, as a person who is taking our product to deal with the side effects, that's why she is calling. Patient states she knows agent is doing what she's supposed to, but her question is, what is Pfizer going to do for patients that are experiencing side effects from our products, because patient states her telling us what she's doing, the money she's spending, or time and efforts is for her own well being and own health, but is there something Pfizer does as part of our process to identify patients that are having adverse reactions to their products, the vaccination product being dispersed to healthy people like her, that are now experiencing health issues, as a result of our product. Patient states doctors have had to deal with her blood pressure until she can figure out what else is going on with her, still trying to get to root cause of issues, and states Pfizer does not seem to have a lot of information on the vaccine's effect on the human body and relation to the immune system. Patient states she does want to speak with the health authority to hear what they are saying about these side effects being reported because when she googles she reads there instance but are younger people, and this can't be true, that it's specific to age, that they are having these same symptoms. Patient states, she understand the need because of the mass deaths caused by the virus, but she is concerned about the accelerated rollout and there are side effects that Pfizer is saying we don't know about from people and that concerns her, that this has been approved, and we are rolling this out, and then asking them to tell Pfizer what is wrong with them, when research should be telling them what is wrong, what could potentially go wrong. Shortness of breath, chest tightness, chest pain, palpitations, heart was racing resulted in Emergency Room and Physician Office visit. The outcome of the events blood pressure was really high, shortness of breath, chest pain, chest tightness, heart palpitations was not recovered, swollen lymph nodes in her lungs, inflammation around her heart was unknown, nausea, headaches, muscle pain and mild body ache was recovered. Information about lot/batch number is requested.

I received my first COVID vaccination on 12/23/2020. Within 24 hours I had a very painful arm at the injection site & flu like s/s such as HA & myalgias. This continued & on 12/29/2020 I began to have an irritated bronchial & even stayed home from work this day. Each day the s/s progressed & by Monday 1/4/2021 I was beginning to have wheezing and chest congestion, productive cough, & SOB, diarrhea, & abdominal pain. The last symptom I have had was the horrible mouth lesions. I worked on Monday 1/4/2021 sick but then was off on 1/5, 1/6, 1/7, 1/8, & Monday 1/11/2019. Throughout my time of not feeling well I never ran a fever. On Friday 1/8/2021 I had a negative COVID test through the respiratory clinic. I did a round of antibiotics & even a round of steroids. I was last seen on Monday 1/11/2021 by the AMG PCP & was given the magic mouthwash. The mouth lesions have since gone away but I continue to have intermittent SOB, wheezing, and a productive cough. At this time I will wait until I am completely better to take the second vaccine. I just want to remind you that I did register through the CDC VSAFE program & continue to answer their questions through text & made them aware of the problems I have had since taking the vaccine. As discussed please file this documentation in my employee health file. My office coordinators have been very helpful & understanding throughout this time. appreciate all you do. Thank you.

came to the vaccination appointment with no current illness or cough. Within less than 5 minutes after the injection started with a cough that is similar to asthma attack onset. As talking with the nursing staff on site after waving them over I began to get worse very quickly. Within minutes I heard one of the staff say "she's crashing, move it". At that point I could not breathe, audible wheezing, shortness of breath, throat was closing, entire body felt like it was on fire, extreme itching on back (especially upper back), shaking/convulsing, incoherent. Paramedic staff was put into place and i was ambulanced to the hospital across the street from the vaccination site. Everything is a whirlwind at this point and treatment from what I can remember was albuterol svn, atrovent svn, use of cpap, epipen administration in the parking lot, benadryl via iv, solumedril, oxygen and pepcid. Once arrived at E.R. I was aggressively treated. Once stabalized began to wheen off the oxygen onto room air. I am a rare asthmatic and my oxygen sats usually do not drop, although I am in distress. At one point I heard oxygen sats were at 96, which is low for me. I was discharged from the hospital to my husband's care. In the next days now I am expriencing fever (100), itching, red rashy skin, severe headaches, joint pain, body ache, diarehha and extreme fatigue

About 10 minutes after receiving vaccine, I experienced a gurgling sensation on the left side of the chest while breathing. That lasted for about 5 minutes and then dissipated. Throughout the day, I had intermittent chest pain. Upon going to bed that night I found I could not sleep on my right side because it hurt to breathe (primarily to exhale). On my back, I was okay. I had minor chest pain, all on the left side, the next day (3/18) in the morning. By lunchtime it was gone. The evening of 3/18 (roughly 5:15-7:00), I experienced extreme chills.

A 49-year-old female patient received second dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE; lot number and expiration date not provided), via an unspecified route of administration (anatomical location; Arm) on 22Jan2021 13:00 as SINGLE DOSE for COVID-19 immunisation. Patient's medical history was not reported. Concomitant medication included biotin from an unspecified date and unknown if ongoing. The patient previously took 1st dose of the Pfizer COVID Vaccine on 29Dec2020 (around 10:00 am to 12:00 pm at a hospital) and had the usual side effects of a little bit of nausea, developed a dry cough, some fatigue, and diarrhea and that kind of stuff. The reporter called about the Pfizer COVID vaccine and was calling on behalf of his wife who was the patient. Reporter stated that before the Pfizer COVID vaccine, patient used to walk the dogs 6 miles a very fast pace and had no problem, then she got her 1st dose of the Pfizer COVID vaccine on 29Dec2020 and had the usual side effects of a little bit of nausea, developed a dry cough, some fatigue, and diarrhea and that kind of stuff. The reporter stated that after the 1st dose of the Pfizer COVID vaccine, the symptoms she reported have worsened and the cough, fatigue, nausea, and diarrhea began immediately after the 1st dose of the vaccine where the cough started a week or so after the 1st dose and then after the 2nd dose, the cough never went away and got worse and worse and worse. Reporter stated the fatigue, diarrhea, nausea, and cough were all ongoing and have gotten worse. Reporter mentioned that for the cough after the first dose of the Pfizer COVID vaccine, it was still there but was occasional and was not too bad but when the patient had the 2nd dose on 22Jan2021 and was knocked on her butt for about three days; also stated that the patient had fever, chills, diarrhea, vomiting, nausea and the works and had all the symptoms. It was also reported that the patient was very sick for 3-4 days with same symptoms. Reporter mentioned that fatigue was getting worse and the cough never went away and always had the dry cough which was getting worse and worse and worse with any activity and was a dry cough and she never had any phlegm. Reporter also stated the patient got to where she did less and less activity and was worse and the dry cough was worse with nothing coming up. It was reported that the patient sought treatment for everything she believed last week on Monday but was unsure of the dates. Monday of last week, patient went to the emergency room in a hospital and was told that they thought that the patient had an enlarged heart and severely low potassium and the patient was put on an IV drip of potassium because she could not tolerate the oral potassium and threw up the oral potassium so she was put on two bags of IV potassium. On an unknown date, it was reported that patient started having pain in her chest from the IV drip of potassium but she was released from the emergency room and the 2nd day of last week which was the next day, patient went back to the emergency room because she was having issues and everything was getting worse. Reporter also stated that the 2nd of last week, the patient collapsed and an ambulance came and got her on Tuesday of last week though reporter was unsure of the dates. Reporter also mentioned that patient went to a hospital and had severe chest pain and collapsed pressure on her chest. Reporter stated that the patient at that time had the dry cough and stuff and the hospital told the patient that the patient had fluid build up around her heart and lungs which was maybe due to the treatment from the IV potassium and was told she has a weakened heart. It was reported that with a weakened heart, the heart can't process fluid around the lungs and the heart and it puts pressure on heart supposedly. It was reported that on Wednesday last week, the patient went to the emergency room for the 3rd day in a row and already had an appointment with the HCP which was an appointment with her new primary Nurse Practitioner for the first appointment and she confirmed that the patient had fluid on the lungs when she saw the patient. Reporter stated that the nurse practitioner could not admit the patient because the hospital she admits too was full so she sent the patient to a hospital emergency room where they did all the tests and everything confirmed what they said and they transferred the patient to another hospital where the patient stayed in the hospital a total of three days and was diagnosed with cardiomyopathy and they started treatment on the patient. The patient was started on Entresto later on and tomorrow there was a follow up visit with her primary HCP and they have to follow up because the patient was released from the hospital and was very weak and she has to wear a lifevest because she is a heart patient and has a weak heart. It was reported that patient is going to be taking medications and stuff and will go see the HCP and they gave her beta blockers and other stuff and she will follow up with the HCP. It was reported that any of the medications including the beta blockers the patient was taking, reporter has no names of the medications, dosages or lot numbers or other information to provide at this time and stated that the patient was treated with those medications in the hospital and that was the hospital in another city and state. Reporter mentioned that it was last week when the patient collapsed while trying to walk across the yard and she was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy where part of the heart shrunk which is the expelling chamber of the heart and the HCP stated where a normal 20-30 year old would have heart function of 55, the patient had an output of 15. Reporter stated that the HCP said that stroke, disease or things like that can cause cardiomyopathy and there are various things that can cause it but they can't diagnose what caused this in the patient because she has not had various things and the only she had was the Pfizer COVID shots that hit her very hard and she just turned age 50. Reporter stated that the patient was age 49 at the time she began experiencing the symptoms that were reported and just turned age 50. Reporter clarified to state the potassium drip the patient had was not at this hospital but was at another hospital. Reporter stated he has no lot numbers, expiry dates or NDC numbers to provide as he does not have the patient card for the Pfizer COVID Vaccine that the patient received and that paperwork is with the patient who is staying at her sister's house so the sister can help monitor the patient. Reporter also mentioned that patient was not taking medications at the time she received the Pfizer COVID Vaccine at that time but was taking over the counter Biotin and states he has no lot, expiry date or UPC to provide. Reporter mentioned that patient has no family history of heart conditions but he thinks the patient's mother is diabetic but she is the only who is diabetic and there is no other history he is aware of. Outcome of the events was not recovered. Information on the lot/batch number has been requested.

My husband, who is with me is a nurse/paramedic firefighter so we did leave the CVS once my reaction began as I was embarrassed and didn't want anyone to know. I have an epinephrine inhaler (Primatene mist) that I took two big puffs of, (.25 mg) and 2 bendaryl capsule. After a few minutes the symptoms in my throat/lips etc. went away.

I immediately took some chewable Benadryl that I had. After about 10-15 mintues it seemed like it wasn't getting any worse anymore. I didn't seek medical attention because the symptoms weren't severe. I did wait an extra 10 mintues beyond my 30 minute hold before leaving. It look a few hours before symptoms seemed to subside. My throat still feels constricted, but I can't say if that is due to the vaccine or other allergies (it's still pollen season). I also experienced soreness at the injection site for about three days.

approximately 8-10 minutes after first dose-experienced flushing through head, down throat some sensation in throat, had to take deep breath, went down arms, felt very heavy, improved after about 15 minutes then very mild recurrence about 35-40 minutes after dose Because of throat symptoms took benadryl and pepcid 30 minutes prior to 2nd vaccine. 1hr 40minutes after 2nd, difficulty swallowing water, flowing/flushing sensation then my lips were tingly and eyes itchy briefly. My HR was 90's which is high, my resting is 40's-50's. Arms would feel heavy with this. This happened later in the day again, Very unsettling, was in contact via text with cardiologist I work with ( I am an ARNP) and my Dr that is listed on this form. They told me I could keep taking Benadryl and Pepcid q 6-8hrs. I was also given prescription for prednisone if needed. Following day went about 8 hrs between doses, same symptoms took Prednisone that eve, I believe 10mg this was in addition to Benadryl and Pepcid. These episodes kept happening for about 5-6 days. On Friday, 3 days after 2nd dose, I tried to space out meds. then in afternoon about 4:40 was actually short of breath and felt tight with breathing. So took meds and actually considered using my son's old inhaler. Symptoms resided in about half hour after meds. Last dose of meds was Sunday 8 PM after 2nd vaccine. Ran in morning and HR would not come down, stayed in 110's very unusual for me, I felt SOB. Had EKG when I went to office but just prior to EKG symptoms resolved and I was SR in 70's Had BMP and Mg these were NL. I run daily and had noted increased SOB and HR after first vaccine this continued until just a few weeks ago. We feel this was some type of allergic reaction with possible mast cell activation. I had internal "tightness" no appetite and felt like constant state of adrenaline for about 1-2 weeks. Concerned if booster needed and for my son who is 18 that has some allergies

body aches; is sleepy and tired; is sleepy and tired; she went to the doctor because she knew she had a sinus infection; Positive COVID-19 Rapid test; Positive COVID-19 Rapid test; she had a hard time breathing; her allergies are acting up; This spontaneous report was received from a contactable Nurse (patient). A 49-years-old female patient received bnt162b2 (BNT162B2), dose 2 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 06Jan2021 (Batch/Lot Number: EL3249) as SINGLE DOSE, dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 18Dec2020 (Batch/Lot Number: EK5730) as SINGLE DOSE for covid-19 immunization. Medical history included: Caller states that there has been nothing relevant recently. Chronic allergies and sinus issues, Allergy induced asthma, allergic to pollen. A Flutter in 2012, Caller also had PVCs and Bigeminy on EKG around this time and caller had a Cardiac Ablation for treatment. Caller stated that she had a history of A. Flutter, related to Pneumonia that she had back in 2012, because some of the medications for the Pneumonia threw her heart out of sync. Caller states that she did have a cardiac ablation because the A. Flutter was proximal. Caller states that it took a while for the doctor's to diagnose her because it would only occur every once in a while, and just for a few seconds. Caller states that on EKG she was having PVCs and Bigeminy, but it never really picked up the A. Flutter, but of course the caller could feel the PVCs. Caller states that she has had none of the cardiac issues since this issue occurred in 2012. The patient confirmed that she had no other vaccines on the same day as either dose of the COVID vaccine. The patient's concomitant medication included Unspecified Inhaler for allergy induced asthma. It was reported that, the patient received the COVID vaccine, the first dose on 18Dec2020 and she had the second dose on 06Jan2021, and recently, the caller started feeling some sinus allergies. She had chronic allergies. Caller stated that if her normal allergy medicines work, then she knew she was just having sinus allergies, but right now, caller stated her allergies are acting up. Caller reports that her symptoms started two to three days ago. Caller states that yesterday (25Feb2021), she had trouble breathing, but caller does have a history of allergy induced asthma. Caller states that she just had her windows replaced and she is allergic to pollen so she thought the dust being kicked up by her windows being replaced may have been the culprit of her symptoms, but she went to the doctor because she knew she had a sinus infection, and she also had some symptoms that are not typical of her sinus infections, including chills and body aches. Caller states that she told her doctor to test her for COVID, even though she has had both doses of the vaccine. Caller's COVID test came back positive. Caller states that she is a nurse herself, and she works in a hospital that is considered a COVID hospital. Caller does not work bedside but she does see some outpatient patients, as she is an anesthesia coordinator, and they do COVID testing on patients prior to their procedures. Caller reports that she had the COVID-19 Rapid test today, with the nasal swab. Caller states that it was a gut instinct on her part to ask for the test because she didn't think her symptoms felt real different from her normal chronic allergies and sinus issues, but she is sleepy and tired, she is having muscle aches and chills and a slight fever. Caller states that yesterday, she had a hard time breathing, and even though she does have allergy induced asthma, it seemed that even with inhalers, she was not able to breath normally. Caller states that the worst day of her symptoms was yesterday (26Feb2021), and today she feels a little bit better with her breathing. Caller states that if anything, the vaccine probably helped her with antibodies so that she is not having the COVID quite as severe as if it could be if she had not yet had the vaccine. She reported that about 2 to 3 days ago, caller started having symptoms and today, 26Feb2021, caller had a rapid COVID-19 test and she tested Positive for COVID-19. Outcome of the events she had a hard time breathing was recovering and all other event outcome was unknown. No follow-up attempts are possible. No further information is expected.; Sender's Comments: Based on the information in the case report and a positive temporal relationship, a causal relationship between event COVID-19 and suspect drug BNT162B2 cannot be excluded.

I started to develop a pain in my upper right quadrant. It started as dull, then became stronger and more sharp. It hurt so much to take a breath. I thought it might be gas so I was hoping it would get better when I laid down, but that didn't change it at all. It was extremely painful. I wasn't sure if I should go to the ER. It started to subside around 11:30-12:00pm, and I was able to fall asleep. When I woke up the next day it was completely gone. I never felt a pain in that spot before or after that evening. It might have been in my gallbladder area? I have two small polyps in my gall bladder that I monitor every few years, but have never felt any discomfort in that area before or after that night.

I also experience difficulty breathing and burning in my chest. I had no issues breathing, prior to the shot. And now I am almost a month out of my second shot and my supraclavicle swelling and lymph node are still there. I was told to give it 2 to 3 months. My chest x-ray came back with mild atelectatic changes without evidence of focal pulmonary consolidation. However, I was told I don't breath deep enough because the clusters in my lungs were not opening as they should. I didn't have this problem prior to the shot. And I am still having off and on breathing issues.

Told my family about it and they said it was probably side affect, minor/seasonal allergies and that I could take Claritin-D 24-hr. It appeared to have minimized the shortness of breath, which comes & goes every few (15 or 30) mins, but still runny nose. I took for 3 days. When I stopped taking Claritin-D 24-hr on Wed in the AM, in the afternoon, started to have difficulty breathing and runny nose. But it was stronger, shallow breathing. So I took Claritin-D 24-hr again but it wasn't working that well, so, took Benedryl at night as well. Then I took an additional Benedryl. I still have the symptoms but manageable with the allergy meds.

I took the first dose of the Pfizer vaccine on 5/4/2021. On 5/5/2021, I began experiencing shortness of breath, my chest was very tight, and I felt like someone was sitting on my chest. I felt like I was having an out of body experience and didn?t feel well. This continued until 5/14/2021 and seemed to resolve, but returned with a vengeance on 5/21/2021. The shortness of breath was much much worse and so was the tightness and pressure in my chest. I also had ringing in my ears. The day I took the vaccine (on 5/4/2021), my period had started, but stopped that day and didn?t return until 28 days later. I saw my doctor and he ordered an EEG and a stress echo test. The EEG returned normal, but I am waiting to go in for the stress echo test. I do not plan on taking the second dose because I?m very afraid of what might happen to me if I do. I am in excellent health and do not suffer from allergies. These side effects were awful! I didn?t start feeling better until the first week of June. I don?t know if these symptoms will return. I still have ringing in my ears that comes and goes.

I received my 2nd dose of the Pfizer vaccination at about noon on Tuesday May 4. I went about my normal business during the day - did some errands, had a personal training session, bought groceries, and cooked dinner. I experienced a little dizziness in the hours after the injection and during the day, but nothing too disturbing. When I sat down for dinner around 8 or 9pm, I had a few sips of wine - maybe 3 ounces at most - and I immediately had a very hot feeling in my head and started hearing my heart pounding in my ears. I stopped drinking and just had dinner, and as the night progressed, I felt extremely uncomfortable. My chest felt very tight, like it was being squeezed from the inside; I had a pounding heart; my pulse was very fast; I felt very hot; and I had some difficulty breathing deeply. I also felt very agitated and not sleepy - as if I had consumed an overdose of caffeine. I watched TV until 1:30am, and I was awake in bed for several hours after that just trying to practice deep breathing and meditation. I fell asleep at some point in the early morning and woke up around 9am. By then the troubling symptoms had passed, and I was just feeling achy and extremely exhausted.

It was reported that, she was a long haul COVID patient. She was going through speech therapy and physical therapy all because of the COVID. She had really good results taking the Pfizer COVID vaccine, especially, the second dose. It helped her a lot. She had Chantix starter kit. She could hear she was having difficulty breathing. She had a migraine. She did not want her to relapse. Patient clarified information above. The COVID diagnosis occurred prior to receiving the Pfizer COVID Vaccine and before taking Chantix. The second shot was only a week and a half ago. She was slowly starting to feel like a human being again. She was still having the mental problems and her balance was a hot mess. She really wanted to get off from smoking. Chantix had just been in the last month. Her daughter was coming back from college and she has pneumonia and she cannot smoke around her. She had double pneumonia herself during COVID. The first time she got COVID virus was 26Dec2020 and they cleared her to go back to work. She made it back for 2 days and passed out and went to hospital. That was when she found out she had double pneumonia and may have caught COVID-19 again. She had side effects from first Pfizer COVID vaccine. But, she was still dealing with the post COVID. She did have to postpone first dose for a week or two because of times available. She started Chantix when she went to long term clinic after that. They were the ones that put her in physical therapy and speech therapy and helped her get on Chantix. She was still having the hot and cold and sweating profusely when she went in to get the vaccine, so it just continued. She really did not know a start date.

She had been a severe migraine sufferer since she was 9 years old. he had weird COVID migraines, but it was not the same. The migraine medications somewhat helped but not really. They really have gotten better. She just got one after the second dose. Before the last couple of days it had gotten better, but the last couple of days it had come back. Her brain just races and she forgot what she was saying. Her short term memory a joke. This happened before the vaccine and before the Chantix. It was still continuing. She broke her neck at 14 years old and got migraines from that. Lack of appetite was after the vaccine but more specifically after the Chantix. She just noticed it in the last week. It has persisted because she does not eat much when she has migraines. She was very emotional and snaps or cries in a moment. It could just be from the migraine or that she lost her healthcare. She is very overwhelmed right now and just noticed it in the past couple of days. She got mad at her cat and never does that. The angry part was within a week or two of starting Chantix. That was a side effect and they pointed it out to her so she is really working on that. She said it will get better since she was out of medication. Within first week of starting Chantix, she was not sleeping well. She had thrown away the Chantix container. She was ran out of Chantix from 30My2021.But again, she had the migraine so she cannot 100% say it was the Chantix. She talked to herself a lot. She honestly thought it may have started right before she got second dose of Pfizer COVID vaccine. She was trying to do too many things at one time and she cannot do it. A friend noticed she would not breathe and get herself worked up and told her to calm down and think of one thing at a time and it does seem to help a little bit. Even though she had double pneumonia, she was still craving smoking. That was why she started Chantix. Description of complaint: The migraine medications somewhat help but not really. They really have gotten better. She just got one after the second dose. Before the last couple of days it had gotten better, but the last couple of days it has come back. The medication they originally gave her is Zolmitriptan dose of 5mg, Manufacturer (Name). She took one and it did not work, so she did not take any more.

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.

We (myself and 2 other pharmacists) were conducting a COVID-19 vaccine clinic. The patient is on staff at the clinic and came in for her 1st dose of the Pfizer/BioNTech COVID vaccine. 10 minutes post-vaccination, patient started experiencing SOB, tingling fingers and face, and swelling of her lips and tongue. She moved herself outside to cooler air and then sent someone back inside to ask us for help. I ran outside with an EpiPen and immediately noted her pulse of 158 on her watch and she appeared to be experiencing an anaphylactic reaction. Patient stated she did not want to use the EpiPen but wanted to try chewing Benadryl instead first. I asked the staff for a blood pressure monitor and pulse oximeter. The 1st readings, approximately 12 minutes after vaccination, were HR 158, BP 155/105, and pulse ox 97%. Patient stated the Benadryl was working and her swelling was decreasing. The patient was not having trouble breathing at the time. I continued monitoring vitals and talking with the patient and approximately 20 minutes post-vaccination, she was improving (BP down to 134/80 and HR 120) but agreed we should call 911. She decided she wanted to move inside and lie down. I escorted her with support to a bed. Her vitals then increased again to BP 152/95 and HR 133 and her lips and tongue started swelling again. The patient appeared to be more labored in breathing then but still refused the EpiPen. Roughly 5 minutes after lying down, the medics showed up and took over and I went back to the vaccination area. I learned later that the patient refused to go to the hospital and after more observation was eventually allowed to leave with a friend/coworker driving her home.

I had a reaction to the vaccine and wanted to make sure you were aware. I had a very similar reaction to Kenalog about 4 years ago. Within minutes of receiving the vaccine, I started to feel like my body was racing a little. My foot started tapping and I felt hyperactive. At the end of my 15 minute wait time, I spoke to the physician that was in the room. I told him I was having a mild reaction and asked him if it was still okay for me to get the 2nd dose. He said yes, but he also took me over to another person to give me some Benadryl, just in case it got worse. They gave me 50mg of Benadryl and asked me to wait another 15 minutes to give it a little time to kick in. My reaction kept getting worse. I started itching all over and the hyperactive feeling became worse. She offered to use an epipen. I declined and asked to wait another 15 minutes. At the 30 minute mark after taking the Benadryl, they called their EMT team because I continued to get worse. The team took me over to the ER. While they were pushing me there, my breathing started coming faster like I was panting. As if I had just gone for a run. Once I was in the ER, a physician saw me pretty quickly but it took a while until he came back to see me. I do not know how long it was. I would guess about 45 minutes to 1 hour. While waiting for the doctor the second time, it felt like my body started slowing down. Within 10 minutes, I felt like i had no energy left. I couldn't lift my arms. I was wide awake and could understand everything. But, all I could do was lay there. The ER doctor ordered oral Prednisone, IV Pepcid & IV Benadryl to be given immediately. He sent me home with prescriptions for the Prednisone and Pepcid since I already have Benadryl. He also recommended I not get the second dose and follow up with my PCP.

Typical sore arm right away. Next day, I felt something in my throat - like it was a lodged bone. Short of breath and my heart was going faster than normal and short exertion. So I took an antihistamine - Allegra; tums; Tylenol; and took Prevacid. It didn't work. I was worried about my heart and that pressure on my throat. I went to my Dr. appt - she was able to get me in at short notice - and she examined me and did blood work and chest x-ray. Gave prednisone and albuterol . She said my lympyh nodes were swollen on my neck. Symptoms have resolved. And on second dose of vaccine I felt fine. But still have irregular heartbeat but I have a cardio appt coming up. I'm wearing heart monitor - Zeo - I mailed that on the 14 of January.

ED COURSE / MEDICAL DECISION MAKING / TREATMENT PLAN: ED Course and Medical Decision Making: Patient evaluated. Peripheral IV established labs obtained. I do have concern for adverse reaction secondary to the vaccine as her symptoms started she said shortly before an hour after receiving the vaccine is started with tingling in her tongue throat and her body. She has minimal cardiac risk factors. Given she was tachycardic she cannot be perked out. EKG obtained showed no acute ischemic ST elevation or depression. Initial troponin was not elevated. Patient received 500 mL bolus of normal saline she deceived Benadryl and part of Pepcid. While the Benadryl infusion was going on patient reported feeling lightheaded and her heart rate was noted to increase to the 130s briefly. The medications were stopped, the Benadryl had already finished however the Pepcid was not completed. Her heart rate proved quickly and the lightheadedness resolved. Repeat EKG obtained did show some mild ST depression inferiorly. A repeat troponin obtained at 2 hours remain negative D-dimer was elevated to 91 therefore CTA chest was obtained. This showed no evidence of pulmonary embolism there is small groundglass opacity left upper lobe which is likely related to atelectasis do not feel that this is infectious in etiology patient has not had cough fever or chills. She remained on cardiac monitor here without any further tachycardia and her symptoms had resolved. I do believe patient's presentation is secondary to adverse reaction to the vaccination. She was advised to take Benadryl at home and may also try over-the-counter Pepcid at home for her symptoms. Did not feel that steroids were warranted at this time. She is to follow-up closely with her primary care provider. I did advise if she has new or worsening symptoms she should return to the emergency department and she expressed understanding and agreement with this plan.

She also was hypertensive. The COVID vaccine clinic administered epinephrine and transfer her to the emergency department where she was given prednisone, Benadryl, and famotidine. ED notes do indicate she had some mild expiratory wheezing but on further discussion with her today this is a consistent finding after being diagnosed with asthma last year (more on this below). She was monitored for over 3 hours and discharged home. Her itching resolved in the ED, hives resolved about 3 hours after discharge and other symptoms resolved around 24 hours post vaccine. She did have labs drawn in the ED: troponin and C4 WNL. CBC showed leukocytosis with lymphocytosis and eosinophilia. No personal history of seasonal, perennial, food, or bee sting allergies; asthma history as below. She did have an episode of bilateral eye swelling in December that was evaluated by her PCP; she was treated with benadryl & prednisone and this took 3 days to resolve. She has no other history of anaphylaxis, hives or angioedema. She was able to show me pictures of this today.

"The shot itself was very unpleasant, the vaccine stung. The nurse was concerned about this since it shouldn?t cause any discomfort at all. Other than immediate onset of a painful injection site no other symptoms occurred until later in the evening. I started feeling kind of yucky before I left work but nothing specific. By the early evening I was running a low grade fever and having muscle and joint pain. I didn?t sleep very well due to body aches and severe organ pain. At one point I woke up because my heart was beating so hard and fast I could feel it in my forehead. My lips and eyes were swollen and my neck was visibly swollen as well, I think due to the lymph nodes in my neck. My throat was some swollen but not enough to cause a breathing issue. The heartbeat issue didn?t last terribly long. I took a Benadryl to try and stop the reaction. I ran fever of a 102 give or take a few degrees either way for 2 ½ days. In addition, the injection site and whole shoulder area was swollen and hot with redness that wrapped around the front of my arm."

I got the vaccine last Thursday, March 4, 2021 and I am experiencing strange side effects. I wanted to be sure to send this along to you as well as, to the adverse effect website. It?s almost as if I?ve had a stroke. Initially (after the shot), I was a little lightheaded but as the rest of the day wore on, (say around 6 hours later), I started to get foggy in my brain - like I had to remember to even breathe - and tightness in my chest like asthma. There was a high pitch scream in my ears and I was more or less, kind of out of it. My hands and feet were sweating profusely. My tongue kind of reacted, too and got a little burned, like when I eat pineapple. It was then that I noticed difficulty swallowing. My sister (a medical professional) suggested Benadryl for the mouth and tongue sensation and she kept an eye on me the rest of the night. She also warned that I should not get a second shot (I totally agree). Being a trooper, I thought all of the weird stuff would blow over in a day or two, so I decided to power on and not report my issues. Today is day 6 post vaccine and I can now see a pattern to the symptoms or episodes which are still present, on and off: 1. The ringing in my ears will intensify, and then I stare off into space, my words get garbled (I have to really concentrate on being present), my tongue gets very dry and then the swallowing issue returns (it?s like slow motion swallowing, so I bite my tongue to stay in the moment). 2. The tightness in my chest intensifies and my breathing gets shallow. I must focus and breath through it despite discomfort. Note, since the shot, I keep a Benydryl and my inhaler with me, although I haven?t used Benadryl since day 3. I used my inhaler yesterday, day 5 because of discomfort and that seemed to help, but using it triggered an ear ringing/screaming episode that came and went the rest of the day. 3. I also have nasal constriction throughout the day. The nasal passage just inflames and then relaxes. I also have phantom smells and my sense of taste got a little off on day 1, but recovered. ________________ March 18, 2021 Update Saturday, 3/13 went to the ER because the cognitive issues had advanced. I found myself staring off into space, losing my train of thought, and unable to speak. When I did speak I stammered or stuttered. They wanted to make sure I did not have a stroke or that I was not in the middle of one, so they did some tests. They also recommended that I go ahead and take the prednisone. After my ER visit the cognitive issues continued, but began to be not-so-frequent by Sunday afternoon. I felt like I was on the road to recovery and so delayed again, taking the prednisone. On Tuesday (3/16), I had what I would call an asthma attack. I was having very strong bronchial spasms that would not abate. I used my rescue inhaler to try to mitigate the symptoms, but that did not work. At the same time, the cognitive issues sort of returned and the big loud ringing and whooshing in my ears was really really noticeable. I am having a protracted allergic reaction to the vaccine. I am not normally allergic to things, but I have noticed new allergies since this all began. Certain food items seem to bother me now and push me into the lung seizing, raw tongue, neurological, ear ringing event.

4 am: 2 hours of chills and violent trembling. My teeth were clenched so tight for so long, my jaw ached. 6 am: I couldn?t lift a glass of water. Someone brought my cup and straw, which I nestled between my face and pillow. I sipped what I could. 6:30: Sleep 8:am: Woke up thinking it was 6pm. I couldn?t roll over. Dizzy and weak, I collapsed back into bed from trying to stand. Someone walked me to the bathroom. Once there, I wheezed and gasped for air. Then I got scared and cried, which made it even harder to breathe. It felt like my body wasn?t absorbing the oxygen it took in. 8:05: Sleep 9 am: Woke up hoping the day was almost over and I slept through it. The cruelest part is sleeping what felt like the deepest sleep only to wake up an hour later ? over and over again. My spine and neck ached, which made my head hurt ? or my head hurt all on its own. 12 pm: Sharp abdominal pains with any movement. If I did move, I had fits of gasping for air. Had to ask Someone for the phone sitting just a foot away. I couldn?t look at the screen. My eyeballs were too sore, head too achy, and brain too fogged. The phone was only to ask for help while someone worked in the other room. 12:30: Abdomen sore to touch. Hard to talk. My bowels became so shut down it hurt(s) to move straight water through them. The rest is kind of a blur. Lots of sleep. In the afternoon, someone walked me to the bathroom. Back in bed, I had another breathing fit. My abdominal pain felt inescapable. Through was happy for his company, I think I fell asleep during our conversation. At some point, someone brought me broth but I didn?t get much down. By evening, I could walk to the bathroom alone, albeit hunched like a 120 year old in need of a walker. My guts just hurt too much to stand upright. Day 2: I still suffer from abdominal pain, a headache and muscle aches, but I CAN roll over, lift a glass of water, and focus on a screen for short stints. (I documented this in stages.) I can walk slowly but still painfully to the bathroom without help, but I get winded beyond that. I?m afraid to eat with my digestive tract so inflamed, but I have far more energy today, 32 hours after my last meal, than I did yesterday. I?ve also lost 6 pounds. Day. 3: 10 pounds down, still with diarrhea, but eating again. Restless sleep. Significantlt winded and dizzy after mild activity, like walking from one side of the house to the other.

My face became flushed and then pale/drained and I began to feel extremely nauseous w/in 10 minutes. The nurse continued to monitor/take my pulse/heart rate at this time. I did experience stomach cramps and had to go to the bathroom. I experienced diarrhea and continued to feel nauseous while in the bathroom. I continued to feel dizzy and just out of sorts so I was asked to remain at the hospital. I was asked if I'd like to be taken to the ER, however, I chose not to go to the emergency room because I did not want to incur any additional hospital charges if they were not going to utilize my EpiPen. I remained at Hospital vaccination clinic at the hospital for what I believe was approximately 2.5 hours. I did ultimately eat a small bag of pretzels and drank a small bottle of water. Thankfully, the Benadryl did help fairly quickly and tremendously to get me over the hump of symptoms and anxiety that I was feeling. Once I returned home, I literally just collapsed in bed and remained there basically sleeping for over the course of the next 48 hours. I followed a diet as my stomach was still upset. I did have a slight fever, but it did not get any higher than 99-100. I felt clammy the first day/evening, with subsequent chills, but ultimately, by Friday night and into Saturday, I felt well enough to get out of bed and move around the house. I felt back to some normalcy on Sunday. My left arm was swollen from Wednesday (day of vaccination) to Saturday. I could not lift my arm, or sleep on my left side due to the pain and I also couldn't lift my arm for approximately 48 hours.

Within 1 hr of 2nd shot, experienced tingling/numbness in both arms&hands&right thigh, in addition to heaviness in left arm. All day Sat had dull headache. Woke up Sunday morn with splitting headache, nauseous, dizzy. Checked BP it was 140/90 (for me anything above 130/80 gives me headaches, my typ high is 124/78). Then experienced tingling&numbness on both sides of face, upper back of head, hands, fingers, and legs. Numbness came and went. Monday afternoon walked up 3 flights of stairs (which I've been doing every day for almost 1 yr), but now experienced shortness of breath, heart palpitations. within 1 hr my entire face/back of head was numb, felt pressure in both of my ears, and both my hands, right leg became partially numb. Went to ER in evening since numbness persisted on/off, especially in face/head. Doc told me my potassium was a bit low & minor dehydration. Got cat scan & EKG--all ok. Was given potassium pill and fluids. While I was waiting, my entire right side (arm/face/legs) became numb for ~1 hr, then lessened up, and moved to left side. Was discharged, but continue to experience "rolling" numbness all over my body--mostly face/back of head, hands/fingers, and legs--but it's now also affecting lower back of head, and upper front & lower back as of Tuesday morning. Some heaviness in both arms, but again on/off. Haven't had another high BP episode from what I can tell. I've never been completely paralyzed per se, but simply tingling/partial or total numbness for long periods of time in all the above mentioned areas.

Patient received her 1st dose of Pfizer COVID vaccine on 02/26/2021. She noted some wheezing and slight shortness of breath and shared this information with her PCP at her regularly scheduled visit on 03/01/2021. PCP refilled inhaler at that time. Her shortness of breath progressively worsened, and she was seen by another provider as a walk-in at the office of her PCP on 03/13/2021. At that time, she was prescribed prednisone for 5 days, noting some improvement after a few days. She received her 2nd Pfizer COVID vaccine on 03/19/2021. The patient woke up on the morning of 03/20/21 with a swollen and painful leg and by 03/22/21 called PCP and was seen in the office. PCP ordered D-Dimer and LE ultrasound. Per the patient, the D-dimer was abnormal and the LE U/S showed a blood clot. PCP sent the patient to the ER, where a chest CT was ordered and showed a pulmonary emobolus. She was admitted overnight and started on Eliquis, and discharged the next day after seeing a hematologist.

I began to have body aches at 11 am the next day. Throughout the day I was achy and nauseous. By 7 pm I had chills and a fever of 102.4. I was also short of breath and felt like I had to cough every time I talked. I also have mitral valve and left bundle branch block, and I've experienced this feeling before. So I took 2 baby aspirin and drank a Gatorade and the shortness of breath/cough sensation improved within 30 minutes. Felt better the next day. Then, had insomnia and bought of energy 3 days after the shot (Sunday, 4/11/21). All worth it to avoid COVID, but reporting it in case the information is useful to you. THANK YOU!!!!

*4/4 Morning felt like I couldn't walk, knew my feet were their, but couldn't register to move for hr and then got up, EXTREME pain in center of my left armpit (to point of almost crying and it was worse than my kidney stone pain I had for a week) and all over pain in body-hard to even move much this day...I slept in 12 hr increments till next day. Noticed my Heart rate was very high constantly between 100-115 ( on my wrist monitor) * On 4/5 Woke up and told myself to get moving for day, arm was turning very red at this point and swelling bad along with armpit along edge and was hot and still painful. Was up for 7 hr.. I got in shower that evening and felt weird midway and my head felt like a whoosh and thought I was going to pass out (normal temp in shower) held onto shower got out was fine for about 20 min and then I started extreme shaking uncontrollably and teeth were chattering from chills. Went to get a Tylenol because I knew something was not right and within 30 min started sweating profusely with fever (I didn't even get up because I felt so crappy) *4/6 Woke up, felt a little better, arm, armpit and side of armpit red, hot and swollen still. Was up for 9 hrs, but when I went to bed and laid down, I felt like I couldn't breathe well...something told me to take a deep breath and I felt something like a pop in chest and then I felt like I was breathing better. Was not still feeling good on 4/7 but went back to work, on 4/8 felt a lot better, then woke 4/9 with Migraine and felt terrible and my heart felt weird...I called the Health Department and asked what to do and they recommended going to doctor... but a Nurse followed up with me which was very nice. Went to doctor and my Blood Pressure was 179/98 at that time. They ran blood work and prescribed me a antibiotic for my arm and armpit area. I want to add as well, not sure if this matters, but my shot was not in center of arm...it was closer to inner part of upper shoulder closer to chest.

-Mild tingling along left trigeminal nerve and left arm within 30 minutes. Still ongoing after 45 hours, but almost gone. -Mild headache starting within 3 hours and lasted less than 24 hours. -Trouble taking deep breaths starting around 10-15 minutes. O2 was 100 (even with asthma/pneumonia, my O2 is always above 92). I was otherwise breathing normally so I stayed calm and didn't need a rescue inhaler. The issue continued for about 30 hours. -Blood pressure spike. Although I was calm, I had a "weird" feeling starting within 5-10 minutes and my heart was speeding up. BP was checked around 20 minutes after injection. It was 168/106 with heart rate of 90. My usual BP is 120/68 with 62 heartrate. My BP has never been that high before as far as I know. Within another 30 minutes it was down to 145/94 and heart rate of 82, and I was released from observation to go home. I was seated and calm throughout episode. I felt "off" for several hours afterward, but had no way to check my BP. My heartrate averaged around 75-85 during that time. -Fatigue followed feeling "off" for another 30 hours.

Throat and inner left ear felt like it was swelling, extremely rapid heart beat, both within a minute or two immediately following the vaccination. The rapid heartbeat seemed to go away after about 30 seconds but the throat/ear closure sensation lasted about 2 hours after the vaccination. I drank a lot of water prior and after the vaccination to flush out my system. I felt like I do when I incidentally eat something with cornstarch in it, and usually just drinking tons of water helps, which it did in this case. Sometimes I have to gargle Benedryl but I did not have to in this case. I contacted my PCP and plan to see an allergist before taking 2nd dose.

rapid heart rate; heaviness in chest; light-headed; need to catch breath; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (who is also the patient). A 50-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number: EP6955), via an unspecified route of administration in the right arm, on 24Mar2021 15:45, as single dose, for COVID-19 immunisation.

It was reported that after so many tests (unspecified) in Mar2021, they found nothing. The patient felt light-headed and felt like she needed to catch her breath. Her heartbeat was prominent at times. At the time of the report, the patient was wearing a heart holster for 48 hours. The events resulted to emergency room and physician's office visits. Treatment for the events was reported as unknown. The patient had COVID-19 Nasal Swab in 31Mar2021 and was negative.

A female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), second dose via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Left Arm on 31Mar2021 around 11:30 (Batch/Lot Number: ER8732) as SINGLE DOSE for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included sleep disorder from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing. The patient received first dose of BNT162B2 administered in left arm on 10Mar2021 at 12:45 (Lot number: EN6198) for COVID-19 immunization and Caller adds that she had no side effects after the first dose, nothing. Concomitant medication included zolpidem tartrate (AMBIEN) taken for sleep disorder, start and stop date were not reported. Patient take Ambien (NDC: 13668000810) at night time, she had been on it for years. The dose is 10 mg, she normally breaks it in half so she guesses 5 mg at night. It is just to sleep, since she does not sleep really well. Caller adds she also takes allergy shots but she did not get that until this week and she only does that once a month. No additional details of allergy shots. The patient experienced arm started hurting on 01Apr2021 02:00 with outcome of unknown, felt super heavy on 01Apr2021 02:00 with outcome of unknown, could not move her body hardly to get up on 01Apr2021 02:00 with outcome of unknown, sick to her stomach on 03Apr2021 with outcome of unknown, caller did not have a lot of energy on an unspecified date with outcome of unknown, splitting headache/headache that she could not even touch her head or hair on 05Apr2021 04:30 with outcome of unknown , sick on 05Apr2021 with outcome of unknown , it is weird because she never sweats profusely on 07Apr2021 with outcome of unknown , cough on 07Apr2021 with outcome of unknown , fatigued/felt drained on 05Apr2021 with outcome of unknown , could not catch her breath on 07Apr2021 with outcome of unknown. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of headache and sick to her stomach. Clinical source: Caller was calling because she called her primary care physician and they said to call Pfizer. Caller took her second shot on the 31st and ever since she has taken that, every other day she has had some weird symptoms going on like this. She took her shot on Wednesday. Thursday at 2, all of a sudden her arm started hurting, she felt heavy, and could not move her body hardly to get up and go to the bathroom or whatever. Friday, she felt fine. Saturday she did not feel up to par. She was sick Saturday night. Sunday she was okay. Monday, she woke up with a headache that she could not even touch her head or hair. She then had to take some medicine because her head hurt so bad that it was making her sick. Today (07Apr2021), she got up and went and worked out and thought she could do workout class. Caller adds that it was weird because she never sweats profusely. She was drenched. Sweat was pouring off of her head and all over her body. She was fatigued again. She could not catch her breath, and she works out all the time. Caller's arm started hurting. Wednesday the 31st was her second shot at 11:30. Caller adds that her arm started hurting at 2 o'clock on 01APR2021. This went away. Along with this, caller felt super heavy if that makes sense at all and she could hardly move. Felt super heavy and could hardly move: caller adds that this was also at 2 o'clock on 01APR2021. This went away the next morning when she woke up. Friday she was okay. Friday caller was fine, and she felt good. Then Saturday night is when she was just sick to her stomach. Saturday night was when caller was just sick to her stomach. Whatever she ate that night, she got sick but she thinks it had something to do with the shot. The next morning, probably mid morning, caller started feeling better again. And then Sunday she was fine. She did not have a lot of energy but she was fine. Monday morning, she woke up probably around 4:30 am with a splitting headache. Caller adds that, like she said, she could not touch her hair. She took 800 mg Ibuprofen but it did not make her feel better. At 9 am, she took the Zofran because she was feeling sick to her stomach. Caller adds that she slept until 11. The headache subsided but the whole day she felt drained and could hardly move. Caller clarifies this was this past Monday, 05Apr2021. Tuesday, 06APR2021, caller was okay. Caller adds that she was pretty normal, and then today she woke up at 4:30am and thought since she had a good day yesterday that she was going to go back and workout and do her crossfit. She has been working out for three months. After her run, she was pouring sweat, which is not normal for her. Caller states that the sweating went away and just every once in a while she can not catch her breath and has kind of a little cough. Caller can not catch her breath and has a cough: caller adds it could be the pollen, she does not know. Caller then adds that she feels like she does not have energy today, normally when she does her workout she feels good the rest of the day if that makes sense. Caller adds that she wants to make sure this is normal. Caller states, like she said, she has been working from home since they sent her home back in March so she has not really been around a whole bunch of people and she has been really healthy. All of a sudden, she took the second shot and she is just not feeling the same. Caller states she wishes she would have known this, because she would have not taken the second shot if she knew this would linger this long. Caller adds that was everything. She just feels like she just does not have a lot of energy today (07Apr2021). Treatment included Ibuprofen, it was prescription Ibuprofen 800 mg. She just took it for her headache, she has not taken anything today (07Apr2021). She didn't take anything yesterday. None other vaccinations within four weeks prior to the first administration date of the suspect vaccine. Family Medical History Relevant to AEs reported as none. No relevant tests. All events did not require a visit to Physician office or Emergency Room. No Follow-up attempts are needed. No further information expected.

In the evening after the vaccine was administered, I experienced pain at the injection site, the following morning I had more pain at the injection site, moderate to high fatigue (2 days), and later in the day I experienced nerve "pings" in my elbow and fingers and a rash (neck and chest) on the same side of my body as the injection (Right side). Occasional nerve pings continued and expanded to my right knee and foot at various sporadic times as well as a couple episodes of coughing. Today 4/28/21, I noticed mild shortness of breath in the morning, while fatigue is lessening somewhat. I am concerned about getting a 2nd vaccine based on my reaction to the first one. What is the advice on this?

I received my second shot on April 17th, 2021. I injured my foot on April 21, 2021. I went to my General Physician the following day and received a tetanus shot. Up until that time, my side effects were very light; slight headache, arm muscle pain. Two days after receiving my tetanus shot I could barely get out of bed. I woke up feeling as if someone had drugged me; my mind was very fuzzy and it was hard to focus. Every muscle in my body was in extreme pain and it hurt to breathe. I had bouts of terrible stomach cramps. I felt nauseous to the point that I was unable to eat solid food other than chicken soup and crackers for three days. I do fully believe my side effects happened because of the tetanus shot as I had very little side effects before the shot. I felt like I was dying. Luckily I had some medicine at home that helped with the symptoms; gabapentin for my shoulder injury, zofran from a past hospital visit, and I took tylenol. I am a Medical Assistant and didn't feel the hospital or the Dr. office could have offered me any relief from my symptoms.

A 50-year-old female patient received the second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration on 29Jan2021 (lot number: EL1284, expiry date: Apr2021) at single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. The relevant medical history included IBS (Irritable bowel syndrome) with constipation from unspecified date and flu from unspecified date (5 years prior to the report). Concomitant medications included ibuprofen (MOTRIN), naproxen sodium (ALEVE), albuterol, azithromycin, prednisone and oxymetazoline hydrochloride (AFRIN SINUS). The patient previously received the first dose of BNT162B2 on 08Jan2021 (Lot number: EL1284) at the age of 50 years old for COVID-19 immunisation. The patient received her second Pfizer Covid 19 Vaccine. She had experienced tiredness, low grade temp and coughing for eight weeks at the time of the report. She had side effects from the COVID vaccine. She could go through a report but the thing she didn't think any one knew but she had a reaction 45 minutes after the second one and she was still having symptoms post 8 weeks out. She had read where it could happen post 6 weeks out but she was perfectly fine before getting it so she could not figure out what was going on. She called her work and they told her she needed a note to come back to work and she was frustrated going through a whole process and going to the doctor and no one knew anything. She needed to know what she needed to do at this point. She would like to know had this happened to anyone else, she did not think they know, the vaccine was just like the virus no one knew, and she was curious, but she thought it was just like, no one knew what was going to happen if you got it. The second dose date was 29Jan2021. She got the shot then she told the nurse she was going for a walk, and the nurse told her to hydrate well so she got a bottle water, 20 ounce and drank it on the ride home. Then on the way home, she clarified it was about 30 minutes after because she was almost home, she got nauseous. She came home, she just went straight to bed, she had body aches, headache, fever, nausea extreme fatigue, she confirmed that was the same day as the shot. Then that went on until, she had to go to Monday, so it began on that Friday at 7:30 in the morning, on Sunday she was feeling better but she was not herself. Monday morning she went to work, she wasn't having fever or nausea so she went to work, she felt pretty okay for a little bit. When asked if the symptoms were ongoing, she said it was really sporadic, which was frustrating. She said that would put her in to first week of Feb, she was not sure of the exact timeline but she was feeling pretty good. Then she was telling her dad she was having symptoms. She was having pain in her sternum randomly, it was happening multiple times per day, it had happened twice where the pain was radiating across her chest like someone was lifting her chest out of her body, it took her breath away. She was supposed to have a colonoscopy on 19Mar2021 and she was trying to decide if she should go in for that, she had no fever no other symptoms. She had to have a colonsopscopy because she had IBS with constipation and they wanted her to have a colonoscopy before they would give her medicine for that, they were going to give her Lunesta. No further information provided. She clarified the IBS was an issue for her prior to receiving the vaccine. She went in for that and she was fine that was Monday 22Feb2021 then at 9:30 that night she was laying in bed and she got severe chills, fever of 101.5, she had to take 1 Motrin and then another 2 Aleve, she thought she didn't remember for sure if that was what she took but she had to take 2 doses of medicine to get it down. No further information provided. Then the next morning she was fine. So this was still ongoing, off and on, she had had to miss work then on 31Mar2021, she was going to work everyday that previous week but the next week she was tired. She was coming home on Wednesday 31Mar2021 she was coming home from class that night because she was in school too and she was tired, her throat was hurting, it hurt to swallow, her head hurt and then, everyone was different but her temperature was 99.5, normally her temp is 97.5. She knew there was debate over whether that was a fever or not a fever not but it was not her normal. She had been taking her temperature for so long because of COVID and going to work they take temperature every day. So she was just feeling bad, she felt so bad, so she didn't go to work that day, she went to the urgent care and when she went back at the urgent care she told them she felt like, she told them she had no body aches, it was just from the neck up, like she had strep throat with a sinus infection combined and since she had gotten the COVID vaccine and the flu shot they did not think it was that but she decided to test her for strep and flu, they did not think it was covid becuase she works at a hospital she did not think she had it either but since she was presenting with symptoms they tested for that too and all that was negative so she thought maybe it's viral, they do have a lot going around and it is the season for allergies with pollen or it maybe a viral sinus infection, that was on Thursday, she slet Friday Saturday and still Sunday and the whole time she was still having like a 99.5 fever by the end of the day so Sunday she was supposed to go back to work. The 31Mar2021 she started feeling really bad and she went to the urgent care 01Apr2021 and had those tests done that were negative and she was home Thursday and the weekend she was not back to herself she was tired but she was not having symptoms COVID but like with her sinuses allowed to use Afrin for 3 days 3 times per day and then stop so she did that then developed a dry cough and by the end of week Sunday she couldn't talk without coughing every time she opened her mouth and air touched her throat she would cough. She didn't know date of that it was not this past Sunday, but the Sunday before she went back to urgent care and they did a chest x-ray and retested for covid, they gave her an Albuterol treatment, they told her there was nothing in her chest and wrote script for a Zpack if she needed it. No further information provided. Then Monday of last week she called her allergist and went to see the allergist and she told her she was not breathing right there was something in there like a bronchial spasm was what she called it and she said everything looked angry, like her ears and her throat. She was not sure why. Her allergist gave her a Z pack, nothing against urgent care but she wanted to get the prescription from her doctor. This had been going on so long so last Wednesday she got the z-pack she left work early at 2 PM and slept for Wednesday through Friday, she did not shower at all she was just exhausted and she was just not feeling well. The cough did get better with a prescription cough drop that she could use 3 times per day for 10 days and her cough was a lot better not totally gone but nothing like it was that Wednesday night. Saturday she was better enough and took a shower and got up and did not feel horrible, she was still tired still, but then Sunday, yesterday, she had a low grade fever at night and was tired and had pain. She said they gave her Prednisone at the urgent care too when she got the chest Xray and on Prednisone didn't feel any aches at all like her knees did not hurt. She went to see the allergist and she was off the Prednisone and everything started hurting, her jaw, her head. She said they told her it was not very much Prednisone but she could find the information. She said it was the 5 day pack. She had to get her glasses. She said it was in a box, its the tapered one, where you do 5 tablets. Yesterday she was still not herself. She took today off again. She was going to call over the weekend they weren't open. But they told her at work she would need a note to come back and she told them her concerns and they said that was not possible and she told them they didn't know, no one really knew. It was a hot mess because she had been getting fatigue and tired and having a low grade fever. She saw 9 patients in a day. She had not called out, she had the flu 5 years prior to the report and she had not been out sick since then so something happened. They told her to go to her primary and she just did not know. The outcome of the events was unknown. No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information is expected.

I received the first Covid vaccine on 2/25/21. I had bloodwork drawn related to my yearly physical on 3/11/21. They ran a CBC and basic metabolic panel. My CBC was normal and my levels specifically my Creatinine was completely normal. I received the second vaccine on 3/18/21. On 3/20/21 I started feeling a lot of pain in my abdomen area and was feeling really bloated. I was having a little difficulty breathing. I went to my PCP on Monday 3/22/21. They ran a CBC and a basic metabolic panel again. That afternoon, my PCP sent me for a CT scan of my abdominal and pelvic area. On the morning of 3/23/21, my PCP called me my Creatinine level ran the day before was at 5. Also my CT scan had come back. I also had moderate ascites (fluid in my abdomen). I also had a large right pleural effusion. On 3/23/21, my PCP sent me to the ER for hospital admission. I was in the hospital for 12 days. I was in acute kidney failure. They drained the fluid from my abdomen. They inserted a temporary port and I had 4 rounds of dialysis. On my 9th day in the hospital, the kidney doctor started me on 80 mg of Lasix per day. My urine output increased dramatically and my creatinine levels began to drop. I had not had any issues prior to the kidney failure that would typically cause it to happen. The only new medicine or change had been the Covid vaccine administration. The kidney doctor and the hospitalist dismissed this idea. I am reporting it because it was the only thing new and my levels had been normal less than 2 weeks before.

Events resulted a visit to Emergency Room and Physician Office on 07APR2021, she first went to the doctor's office, she ended up in the ER the next day and they wanted her to see a cardiologist and that was when she ordered the cardiac catheterization, since she was diabetic, the cardiologist was surprised she did not have any blockage, he said most have a little bit, but hers was normal, so he ordered a CT Scan of her Lungs to see if there was a blockage, blood clot or cancer and they were both fine. No treatment received for the events. Outcome of the events was not recovered. No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information is expected.

Please contact the author with any questions or requests for clarification. CC/HPI Patient is a 50 y.o. female presenting to the ED with chief complaint of persistent cough and shortness of breath in the setting of Covid infection. This is a patient with pertinent medical history of asthma. Patient comes in for evaluation today mainly concerned that her asthma medications have not been helping with her breathing ever since being diagnosed with Covid. She was diagnosed about a week ago. She is not having some mild fevers as well as general achiness and fatigue. She is most concerned because she has been having persistent cough and some shortness of breath particularly over the past couple days. She is compliant with her daily Symbicort but has also been using her albuterol inhaler quite frequently. She reports she usually does not have to use her albuterol inhaler nearly as much. She also reports some lightheadedness which is mainly associated with position changes when she gets out of bed too quickly. Patient otherwise denies any previous history of blood clots; she has not had any recent calf swelling/tenderness. She feels that the shortness of breath has been progressively gotten worse over the course of the past week rather than all of a sudden getting worse. Denies any chest pain, even with deep inhalation. ED to Hosp-Admission Discharged 4/27/2021 - 4/30/2021 (3 days) MD Last attending ?

As soon as I received the shot my arm felt like lightning went through it. I began having shortness of breath. I walked to get some water and started having more trouble breathing. I was sweating, I felt dizzy. The EMS came and took me to the hospital where I was for 4-5 hours. I was given Benadryl. I was going to get medicine for nausea, but I felt better and was afraid to take anything because of the reaction. I was very lightheaded, dizzy and nauseous. At the hospital, I was observed. I was getting better but I was still itchy. The Doctor was going to prescribe some prednisone but wanted to hold off on any medication to allow the vaccine to do its job. I was given a prednisone pack and a Benadryl pack. I felt better so I didn't take the prednisone. I was told to continue taking Benadryl and if that did not help, I was to take prednisone. Currently, I still experience extreme achiness and fatigue. This is something I have never experienced before. I am on medication for the achiness that my doctor believes to be arthritis but it is not helping. I was able to run 3 miles a day but now I am unable to even walk it. It is difficult getting up and down stairs which the medication has helped with some.

Medical history included supraventricular tachycardia, adrenal insufficiency, hypothyroidism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, hypermobility syndrome, developmental hip. Concomitant medication included hydrocortisone, trazodone, levothyroxine sodium (LEVOTHROID), bupropion hydrochloride (WELLBUTRIN). The patient previously took erythromycin, morphine and experienced drug hypersensitivity. The patient experienced anaphylaxis, throat tightening/tingling/soreness, dry wheezy cough a little dizziness and tachycardia. Itching, numb R foot, Low grade temp and chills and headache on 06Jan2021 11:15. Seriousness criteria reported as life threatening. Taken to ER had IV benadryl, solumedrol, pepcid for anaphylaxis. Placed on O2 and given albuterol nebulizer. Had IV fluid bolus. Now on benadryl and 5 days of prednisone. The patient felt completely fine prior to vaccine. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included sars-cov-2 test: negative on 06Jan2021. The outcome of events was recovering. No other vaccine in four weeks; No covid prior vaccination.; Sender's Comments: A possible causal association between administration of BNT162B2 and the onset of anaphylaxis presented as throat tightening/tingling/soreness, dry wheezy cough a little dizziness and tachycardia. Itching, numb R foot, Low grade temp and chills and headache cannot be excluded, considering the plausible temporal relationship and the known adverse event profile of the suspect product. The underlying predisposing condition of drug allergies may put the patient at high risk of anaphylactic reactions. 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.

The following is the timeline of progression: First 48 hours: Immediately following the vaccine I felt I would vomit. That lasted 2 hours. The remainder of the 48 hours I had a growing headache that turned into a migraine level. Cognitively my husband would say I was out of it, not able to focus. The area around my eyes – my eyelids and below eyelids bright red – like I had put a bright red blush on them. Three to four days later: Saturday night my symptoms started to progress over a span of a few hours very drastically. I had symptoms of Diarrhea– crazy impact in my gut. Sunday I still had migraine level pain in a headache. I felt increased symptoms of nausea and diarrhea increased. Sunday I still had migraine level pain in a headache. I felt increased symptoms of nausea and diarrhea increased. By Sunday afternoon I had full blown symptoms of stomach flu. I had chills, extreme nausea that became debilitating. We do not have a thermometer that works, as a result I do not know if I had a fever. By Sunday night I was vomiting and symptoms progressed to tightness of chest, shortness of breath, vomiting, diarrhea, chills. My gut was literally moving in sharp pain, sounds, and cramping. It was severe diarrhea. I was achy and tired, but could not fall asleep due to nausea and vomiting. I was unable to stand up without the fear of passing out. I tried to manage the nausea with medicine that I have at home. It assisted but did not ultimate make an impact. By 4:30 a.m. I was scared by the lack of breath and asked my husband to call 911. The paramedic stated that I had an increased heart rate, but good blood pressure. I went to the hospital and received fluids, two different additional doses of nausea medicine, oxygen and a gut muscle relaxer. After 30 to 40 minutes I showed improvement and was able to go home. Still had pink color tone in skin around my eyes. On that Monday (2/8/2021), I was unable to go to work and called in for Covid PTO. I slept most of the day. Five days later: Still have a headache that can be managed with Tylenol. I still have diarrhea. I no longer have nausea, the pink color around my eyes seems to be gone.The nurse team and ambulance team all stated that the second shot was awful. Three folks stated they were in fetal position for two days. I was not able to ask what that meant due to my extreme nausea and trying to not dry heave. Note: I did not have any symptoms from the first vaccine – just a dull headache.

A 51-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number: EN6200, expiry date: 21Feb2021), via an unspecified route of administration in the left arm, on 17Feb2021 15:40, as single dose, for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included type 2 diabetes mellitus from 2012 to (diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus almost 9 years ago), neuropathy in her feet/nerves and reported that she only turns pink if she gets overheated. There were no concomitant medications. The patient did not receive any prior vaccinations within 4 weeks. Historical vaccines included influenza vaccine (reported as flu vaccine) which she gets every year and pneumococcal vaccine (reported as pneumonia vaccine) which she gets every 5 years. The patient reported that she received her first Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine on 17Feb2021 and had an allergic reaction. She said she was at a podiatry appointment, and her podiatrist told her the pharmacy had an extra COVID-19 Vaccine available. She said the pharmacy staff came to her podiatrist's office to administer her COVID-19 Vaccine. She said about 5 minutes after she received the COVID-19 Vaccine injection, on 17Feb2021 15:45, her left arm started feeling flushed, her left arm started getting hot, and the hot sensation traveled down her left arm to her left hand, and up to her left shoulder and neck. She said 20 minutes later, she walked from her podiatrist's office to a nurse's station to be monitored further. She said while she was at the nurse's station, a doctor came by twice to evaluate. She clarified the upper part of her left arm started turning pink, and then red. She said her podiatrist asked her if that was a normal reaction for her. She said she told her podiatrist she only turns pink if she gets overheated. She said her left hand got numb and tingly. She said the muscles in her left arm between the inside of her left elbow down to the inside of her left wrist were "twingey". She said her podiatrist and his nurse felt both her arms, and said her left arm was much warmer than her right arm. While she was at the nurse's station being monitored, she felt short of breath. She said she wasn't sure if she was short of breath because of her nerves. She said her oxygen level was checked and it was at 99%. She said her pulse was 101, her blood pressure was 118/76, and her blood glucose finger stick test was 128. She said she was told by the staff monitoring her, she should expect her blood glucose number to skyrocket because there is a steroid in the COVID-19 Vaccine shot. She said the staff also mentioned she can expect blood glucose spikes as the COVID-19 Vaccine's steroid goes through her system. Her fingers in her left hand became itchy while she was at the nurse's station being monitored. It was a deep down itch in her left hand fingers. She said she asked for an ice pack to put on her left hand because she uses ice packs for neuropathy in her feet, and she felt an ice pack would help with the itch and burning feeling in her left hand fingers. The doctor came to look at her again and wanted to give her IV Benadryl. Then the doctor decided against the IV Benadryl because she would be too sleepy to drive home but the doctor did eventually give her an intramuscular injection of Benadryl 25mg (clarified as Diphenhydramine 25mg in a syringe) in her upper right arm. Within 5 minutes the itching in her left hand fingers calmed down, and the redness in her left arm calmed down to a pink color. She said 20 minutes later her left arm was still pink and warm. She said she was told by the doctor if her reaction moved out of the localized area of her left arm, to go to the Emergency Room, and to use an icepack, again, on her left hand. When she arrived home, her husband said she looked like she had hives and a rash going down her left arm. Her left arm was not itchy though. She clarified the blotchy red marks go in a line from the inside of her top left elbow down to her left wrist. She reported that while she was at her podiatrist's office her left arm was a solid pink. She then mentioned that when she goes out in the sun and gets overheated, she turns pink. She said from her left shoulder to left elbow was warm to the touch.

I had the first shot on March 1st. My arm was a little swollen and sore for two days, and I was extremely tired, but other than that no adverse reaction. I received my second shot on March 19th, my arm again swollen and sore, and I could barely keep my eyes open the rest of the day. On 3/20/21, I woke at 8:30, feeling like I had hardly slept at all even though I had slept for 9 hours. I woke up wheezing, which led to me coughing and chills but no fever. The exhaustion I had felt after the first shot, was nothing compared to this. I thought it would go away, but it didn't. I also noticed a lot for fluid retention in my lower legs and stomach area. When I got on the scale, in the 20 days from the 1st shot til the day after the second shot I had gained 20 pounds of fluid. I was stunned. I could barely do a simple task, then I would have to sit down to rest for a minute, and would immediately fall asleep for 2 to 3 hours. I went to my doctor's on 3/22/21. They did a covid test, it was negative. The doctor said I was definitely wheezing and gave me the only sample inhaler that they had in stock Anorro to try to open up my airways. After a week, I was still having the issues, went back to doctor on 3/29/21 This time they perscribed 12 days of taper steroids. I am on day 4. I also received a referral to see a pulmonary specialist. I am still dealing with the exhaustion, wheezing and cough.

After about 5 minutes I got extreme burning on left arm, Then my throat felt restricted, difficulty breathing and rapid heartbeat. My left arm had hives with mild redness. My blood pressure shot up to 138/85. I walked back in from waiting in my car and taken into clinic to be observed for about 30-40 minutes. My symptoms did calm down and mostly resolve after 30 minutes. Due to reaction my 2nd dose scheduled for 4/9/2021 was declined as it was in a non-clinical setting. Was advised to go to a hospital for 2nd dose since doctor was concerned I may get a stronger anaphylactic reaction. I am getting seen by my PCP since I have been having dizziness and heart palpitations since the 1st dose. However not sire if related or not. I do want more information whether I should even get the 2nd dose or not.

At 12:28 p.m. on Saturday, April 10, my blood oxygen went down to 87%. I felt cold, had chills, and was shivering. I felt weak and felt malaise when i stood up. I was monitoring my blood oxygen and temperature. Blood oxygen improved but I still felt malaise, weakness. I took one 600 mg ibuprofen at 2:40 p.m. At around 3:43 p.m. my blood oxygen was 98% and i felt better finally. Subsequently, I took 2 (200 MG) Advils at 9:50 p.m. before going to sleep. At 2:00 p.m. on Sunday, April 11, I got up to get my salad out of the fridge and I started feeling malaise. My heart rate went up, I was breathing shallow. I drank 2 Advils (400 MG).

I drank it around 11:25 p.m. I was up until after 12 a.m. until finally I felt I could breathe better and went to sleep.

I was brought to the hospital by the ambulance because my throat swelled up.; eyes are tired; My body is itchy and feel like crap; My body is itchy and feel like crap; she's allergic to the Covid 19 vaccine; I was wheezing within 10 minutes after receiving the first dose of the vaccine.; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). This 51-year-old female patient received first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Formulation: Solution for injection, Lot/Batch number: ER8732 and expiry date: 31Jul2021) via an unspecified route of administration in left arm on 29Mar2021 at single dose for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included Multiple sclerosis (from 1996 to ongoing), 2006-2007, it was because of an MS drug (Interferon (receiving 3 times a week)), it gave her mild cardiomyopathy. She just stopped taking another treatment for multiple sclerosis called Mavenclad. Mavenclad is a chemotherapy drug. She received her first dose in Oct2020, she took Mavenclad for 5 days. Then in Nov2020 she started taking the Mavenclad again for 5 days. She doesn't restart the Mavenclad again until Oct2021. She reports the Mavenclad takes the B and T cells out of her bone marrow. When she has the next dose of Mavenclad, the B and T cells will be depleted again and when the B and T cells come back they are "tricked" so they won't attack her body. Her hair fell out in clumps with the Mavenclad and her throat swelled too. She would really like a haircut to fix her hair. She premedicated prior to receiving the Mavenclad. She reports she was premedicated for 3 days prior and the day she received the Mavenclad, with Benadryl. Within 15 to 20 minutes of taking the Mavenclad she had a reaction. Concomitant medications included vitamin b12 (about a year) for vitamin b12 deficiency and vitamin d (10-15 years) with calcium for Vitamin D deficiency. On 29Mar2021 within 10 minutes after receiving first dose her throat swelled up. The next thing she knows is people are all around her, she's on a gurney and she's going to the hospital in an ambulance. She would say she's allergic to the Covid 19 vaccine. In the emergency department she had to have an IV with all kinds of medications. Yesterday in the emergency department the doctor wanted to give her an epi pen. She told the doctor she didn't want to have the epi pen. In her IV in the emergency department she received Solu-Medrol, Benadryl (as needed), and Famotidine (20mg twice a day 10 days). She was prescribed Prednisone 20mg tablets, take 3 tablets orally every day for 5 days. She also reports she is allergic to egg whites, not deathly allergic. She can eat a hardboiled egg but she has to take Benadryl because her throat will start to close up. She can eat scrambled eggs just fine because the eggs are cooked different. The emergency room was watching her because if she didn't improve, they were going to give her the epinephrine. She started to improve, and she was thankful. She was afraid something else could have happened to her and her husband was in the parking lot and wouldn't have known. She's not sure how many hours she spent in the emergency room. She was not admitted to the hospital; she was discharged from the emergency room. Now she's taking medication for the next 5-10 days. She's not shocked, with her history and her reactions to medications. She didn't really think an allergic reaction was going to happen because the Covid 19 vaccine is not a live vaccine or anything like that. She's not going to look online for allergic reaction information because her eyes are tired. She's been up since 1:30 AM because of all the steroids she's on. On 30Mar2021, her whole body is itchy. She's taking Benadryl and the Benadryl has helped. The itchy feeling is moving on to different parts of her body. She had the swine flu when it came out and it was hellacious. She feels like Covid is much worse and she she believes in science. She knows Covid 19 isn't made up. She's all for the Covid 19 vaccine. Give her the Covid 19 vaccine so she can move on. She reports everyone in her family got the vaccine, and they were all fine besides aches and pains. When probing for specific information regarding the caller's family members, she reports her daughter, who is in nursing school had the Covid 19 vaccine. After her daughter's first Covid 19 vaccine, she had a sore arm that night and she was really tired. The next day her daughter felt a little lightheaded and she felt like she had flu symptoms. She had some body aches. Then under her daughter's armpit where her lymph nodes are were swollen. By the third day her daughter felt better. She was totally fine. She thinks her daughter may have reported her experience online. The outcome of event eyes are tired and I was wheezing within 10 minutes after receiving the first dose of the vaccine was unknown, the outcome of event My body is itchy and feel like crap, My body is itchy and feel like crap and she's allergic to the Covid 19 vaccine was not recovered where the patient recovering from the event I was brought to the hospital by the ambulance because my throat swelled up.

First, I had a tight throat and I blamed it on the pollen, next at home potato chips got stuck in my throat, and I was just like 'I am eating too quickly', then at boy scout meeting that evening I couldn't breath and blamed it on my mask (we have to wear masks outside), came home took an expired Benadryl and thought, I will call allergist in the morning for an appointment. Next day woke up, felt fine then around 1pm I was on the toilet and I felt a drop like hitting the bottom on the elevator and I thought I won't be able to get off the toilet, I felt super dizzy and nauseous and I thought I would fall. I seriously don't think I have ever felt worse. Yelled to husband got on sofa and started calling 'ask a nurse' which was stupid, called 911 and they told me to take epi-pen which I should have known to give myself the whole time! EMT came and I went to ER. Felt better almost immediately with epic-pen and drip with steroids and Benadryl. Next day went to allergist and felt like I was having another reaction, she gave me some additional meds. I started on Zyrtec and I didn't like how drowsy I was feeling so on 4/5 I didn't take Zyrtec that night and Tuesday I woke up fine and then around 1pm I thought I was going to die, I called the allergist, they said you should continue taking Zyrtec every night and take one then. I felt like I was having another allergy attack. I felt so dizzy I couldn't move, I felt like I was going to fall, I threw up. I was still too dizzy to move, called ER, went to ER and started feeling better due to the Zyrtec now in my system.

Loose bowels at times, slept all the rest of the day and night, drank lots of fluids and electrolytes (low sugar). Felt more weak and dizzy the next day, and when walking felt veering right more, more issues with extended activity. e next dose on 1/22 onwards, and has never gone away fully. R arm pain and raised, tender area at vaccine site contiued to hurt for weeks, even into the next dose on 1/22 onwards, and has never gone away fully. 1/3.2021 woke up 5:30 am sudden onset shortness of breath, deep lung pain in the center of the chest. I felt like my R lung blocked, and started to cough up large amounts of clear mucus, and vomiting mucus due to airway feeling blocked. I did a 4 albuterol puffs to try to open my airway, but I was not wheezing, and did not have any respiratory symptoms or illness at the time before this started. I had been having continued less lung capacity for many months prior due to having been very sick in March 2020 onwards, including loss of sense of smell and taste, shortness of breath, deep lung pain, fever, No wheezing, not sick. Pfizer dose #2 EL9261 1/22/2021 3:50 pm after work. Onset of symptoms by 5:30 pm with headache, dizziness, nausea, extreme fatigue, increased R arm pain at the vaccine site, but it was still hurting at the site from the 1/1/21 shot too, before this dose. Drank fluids and went to bed. Loss of smell and taste returned 1/23/21. Had continued bad headache from 1/22 onwards, with nausea and feeling more dizzy at times, and on 1/26/21 I was at work with increased headache, dizziness and nausea, and went home early from my shift (I am an RN) due to symptoms. Went to bed early, due to continued nausea and headache and dizziness at times. 1/27 continued bad headache, then in the afternoon around 3 pm, GI felt bloated, bad nausea, and then felt shortness of breath around 4 pm and faster heart rate in the upper 80?s lasting for minutes, despite laying down in bed, so I too used my oximeter (I Have photos) and the sats were staying at 88% continuously, and had shortness of breath and return of deep internal mid lung pain, and this lasted for over 10 min. I used a canister of Boost oxygen for 5-6 puffs to try to recover, and the sats raised to 90%. No wheezing. Not sick. I had a bad headache and nausea, and was not feeling good and went to bed. On 1/28/21 I woke up at 5:30 with severe vertigo and dizziness, nausea and a bad headache and could not walk due to the vertigo, and vomited when I was trying to have my head up. I had to crawl to the bathroom on my hands and knees. I called out sick for work due to this and contacted my DR. I was started meclizine 25 mg 3 times a day for vertigo, and was taking Zofran to help. 1/31/21 noted my Re upper eyelid was doing a lot of spastic twitching at times, that would stop and start, but did not think about it much. The vertigo was unrelenting and then I started to have Right arm and hand weakness noted on 2/3/21 and was still very dizzy, nauseated and had a constant headache since I got dose #2 of the COVID vaccine on 1/22. I was using a walking stick for the dizziness to be stable, and also felt weaker on the R side, and drifting to the right when walking .On 2/4/21 I had my first MRI (no contrast, unfortunately) and noticed I could not fully shut my Right eye in the MRI, and by 2/5/21 my face was drooping. I still had the constant headache, nausea and dizziness, and increased R hand, arm and R leg weakness and R hip weakness. I could not lift my R leg up to walk well, cannot grip well with the R hand, and uncoordinated, and cannot walk straight, and am unstable when trying to walk heel to toe, or even stand still with my eyes shut, and have had some double vision with the R eye. I was started on Prednisone and on Klonopin for the vertigo on 2/9 after seeing my neurologist. I took Prednisone for 5 days, from 2/9-2/13 and did not have improvement with the R facial droop or R side weakness and the headaches have persisted, along with some dizziness and nausea. on2/14-15 I had increased shortness of breath and R lung felt like it was not inflating much, and got an xray, and went onto Zithromax for 5 days, which did help my lungs to improve, and I was able to breathe better, and got my Right lung capacity back. I stopped the Klonopin after a week (2/9-2/16), to manage through the symptoms without it, and have been doing physical therapy and. Vestibular therapy. I had another MRI, with contrast on 2/25, after an in-person neurology appointment, and was having some improvement with the vertigo, so I started back to a desk job, not my RN job on 3/4/21, but I was still having the constant headache, nausea, and some dizziness, R face droop, R hand weakness, R leg weakness and walk with a walking stick, and have increased issues with exertion, but have been walking and doing therapies to get stronger.3 I started to have increased R facial droop. EMG done on 3/23 of my R arm. Worse headache, nausea, dizziness at the desk, and fatigue, but R side weakness issues increased, so I started back onto Prednisone on 3/28/21 with 50mg day for 3 days, then 40mg for 3 days, 30mg for 3 days then 230mg for 2 days, but had increasingly bad headache,nausea and increasing R facial droop, and much worse R hand weakness, R arm weakness and pain, and R hip pain and weakness, worse walking, cannot lift my R leg or foot as high as the L, again, and am struggling to walk, and get worse with exertion with R side walking and weakness. I also had shooting pains in my R jaw start on 4/6-7, along with R jaw and face pain and increased numbness, more face droop shooting pains in my R hip, and arm and body pain and a worse headache making it hard to even sleep, and some increased issues with my R eye that I need to have checked. The prednisone last dose was on 4/7, and stopped due to the symptoms I was having, after a video visit with the neurologist. Increased R leg weakness, R weak hip vs left, R foot drag/drop, with increased issues to maintain walking with progressive walking, still using walking stick to try to walk, but now for stability and to keep from drifting, R facial droop increasing and now some R eye blurring 4/9 onwards, that is new.

Vaccine did hit me hard the day after, all day Friday, and managed as many naps as possible but keeping G?s routine going. As the night went on, I found it more difficult to stay awake. I experienced something I have not experienced in almost 20 years. I suffered from a few bouts of sleep paralysis in my 20s. It was horrifying to be awake and unable to move a muscle and you can even make a sound. Last Friday, I literally stopped breathing (never happened b4) and woke up paralyzed just for a few moments and when I regained movement, I was gasping for air. I was so scared because it kept happening shortly after falling asleep but I could not stay awake. I am not sure if my fibromyalgia played a part in this or not. I have also been experiencing more shortness of breath since then and the last two days constant ear ringing. It is hard to focus with the high pitch ringing in my ear. I am out of breath with such little movement required.

After receiving the shot, I was directed to the 30-minute wait section because I disclosed that I am highly allergic to sulfa. About 2 minutes after sitting down, I started having difficulty breathing and became very dizzy. It was if I could literally feel the vaccine rush through my body and even down into my legs. It felt like heat in my legs. I wanted to remove my mask to try to breathe, but I knew I should not. I am a single parent and my child was at home attending remote school so I was thinking I did not want to go to the hospital. I instantly prayed and paced my breathing as I struggled and began to sweat. I began slowly moving my legs because I started thinking about the J&J blood clot issues and prayed more. The ladies monitoring the section were at the front of my section and I was in the very back, so I could not alert anyone. I struggled and prayed about 10 minutes until my breathing improved (through prayer), but I was still dizzy. I sat there over 30 minutes because I was fearful to stand. I finally got up, but was still dizzy and lethargic. I called my mother and sat in my truck in the parking lot for another 30 minutes because I was not capable of driving. For approximately one week, I had tempered breathing, was very nauseous, fatigued, and lethargic. Interesting enough, I had only minor pain in my arm.

Cough, shortness of breath & wheezing became worse for the next few days. 18 days later, I *STILL* have problems with breathing & coughing. Note that although I had no known Covid exposures prior to receiving the vaccine I got tested for Covid three days prior to vax, just to be 'sure' and tested twice in the days after the vax since I developed such breathing problems.

As I stated previously, I received the first shot on 01/05/2021. One week after I got sick and had a covid test which came back negative. Then I got the second vaccine on 02/05/2021. On Feb 14,2021 I woke up at 1:00 am and had severe back pain. Within about 10 mins the pain shot to my chest. I went to the emergency room. My troponin level continued to elevate and I was admitted for 2 days. I had a cardiac catherization and all my arteries were completely clear. It was later determined that I had a non stemi MI. There was swelling around my pericardium of the heart. Following this event I have also been having shortness of breath and also seeing a pulmonologist. The pulmonologist believes the lung issue is related to my initial heart problem, from Feb 14,2021. I am currently being treated for viral asthma. I am on two inhalers, and a round of prednisone as of May 25,2021. I have never had any health issues prior to these events. I do not know for sure that the events are related to the vaccine but it certainly is a coincidence that everything started happening after I was vaccinated.

Patient was accompanied by her daughter to translate. Patient marked YES to the question if she had any allergies on her screen form and noted that she has allergic reactions to sulfur. Her daughter verbally told us she also has allergic reactions to shellfish. The daughter also noted that the sulfur allergy is about 10 years old and the shellfish allergy is 2 years. The daughter also stated that patient has carried an EPI pen for about 2 years and had her own pen with her. We took her aside from the other patients and administered the vaccine with PA watching her. Approximately 10 minutes later, patient felt that her throat began to feel constricted and her tongue began to swell. PA assessed her and decided that she should use her EPI pen. We moved her to an adjoining room (for privacy) and the daughter administered the EPI pen as patient stated that she did not know how to use it. The daughter also gave her mother 2 puffs of Ventolin inhaler. PA exam her and she had a slight elevation in her pulse and course rales bilaterally. At this point, PA determined that we should call 911, which I did. The swelling in throat and tongue began to diminish before the paramedics arrived. Paramedics assessed and decided she should be transported to hospital for full evaluation.

Night of vaccine felt heaviness on chest - using elliptical machine as usual and felt out of breath very quickly within 15 minutes. Normally do 30 minutes and can speak through it. Just thought I was tired. Overnight joint pain significant in knees, fingers and shoulder blades. Husband told me I was moaning throughout the night and turning from side to side. Got up to go to the bathroom once and head felt foggy. Morning got up as usual and quickly became light headed. Started to black out to the point where sitting down and putting my head down didn?t help. Was blacked out and yelled for my husband. Husband carried me to the couch what I was saying he thought I was hallucinating. Began to have whole body trembling - not necessarily chills just trembling. After about an hour subsided. Blacking out lasted on and off throughout the day. O2 stats between 91 and 94 throughout the day, fast heart rate 90+. No fever. Stayed in bed all day, barely moved. Restless and couldn?t get comfortable - very bad headache. Going in and out of sleep. Treated with Tylenol arthritis and ibuprofen. Drank water and some hot tea. Very hard to even drink anything.

It is starting to feel a little better. Last week (2 weeks after dose #1) I reacted to wall paint, my hands broke out in hives and got itchy, which I?ve never reacted to in the past.

high level of shortness of breath; Diarrhea; spinal column hurt the worst (the spine from the top of her neck to her butt); butt muscles hurt really bad; caller's spinal column hurt the worst, the front of her calves and hip joints; spinal column hurt the worst, the very edges of her back, the side of her back was excruciating; Dizziness; Vomiting; not feeling well enough; shaking; shivering/ chills; pulse ox and it dropped down to 93; Excruciating body pain; Headache; sore arm / front of her calves, front of her thighs, left arm, 3 left fingers; Exhaustion; no appetite at all; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer, the patient. A 52-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 MRNA VACCINE; Lot number: unknown), via an unspecified route of administration in the left arm on 08Mar2021 at 10:15 (at the age of 52-years-old) as a single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included ongoing epilepsy since Oct2015 (officially diagnosed in Oct2015, but the doctors believed it was in her early 20s but she was misdiagnosed for decades), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) from 2020 (diagnosed a year ago), sleep apnea since 2016 (patient thought she was diagnosed in 2016), COVID-19 in Nov2020 from which the patient almost died, memory loss (left over COVID symptom) for which the patient was in speech therapy, intermittent body pain (aftereffects of COVID-19), relapse in seizures due to COVID-19, her eyesight was terrible, epilepsy migraines. Concomitant medications included unspecified epilepsy medications. There was no other vaccine given on the same day, or 4 weeks prior to the vaccination. The patient previously received a flu shot and fainted, on an unspecified date. On 08Mar2021 at 11:15, the patient experienced sore arm (pain 2/10). On 08Mar2021 at 22:00, the patient had headache which got progressively worse, then it got so bad she wanted to pop her head off at midnight. On 09Mar2021 at 00:00, the patient had shaking and shivering where it looked like she was convulsing (she had history of epilepsy and knew what a seizure felt like, her husband may have thought she was having a seizure). The patient had chills to the point where she had multiple blankets and could not stop shaking, took her pulse ox and it dropped down to 93. The caller's baseline temperature was 97.1 and her daughter took her temperature and it was 98.9, most people wouldn't consider that a temperature, but it was a temperature for her. The caller kept shaking like that for hours. On 09Mar2021 between 21:00-23:00, the patient had chills again. On 09Mar2021, the patient experienced excruciating body pain (pain 9/10) in very specific parts of her body. On 09Mar2021 by 12:00, the caller's spinal column hurt the worst, the front of her calves and hip joints, the very edges of her back, the spine from the top of her neck to her butt and then next to it was not so bad but the side of her back was excruciating, the butt muscles hurt really bad, the front of her thighs, left arm, 3 left fingers, but not the other 2 fingers. Oddly enough, she was considered a long hauler, it was the places that her occupational therapist and physical therapists were working on. On 09Mar2021 at 00:00, the patient experienced dizziness (that was on and off all day until bedtime last night on 09Mar2021) and vomiting (she couldn't hold down water). On 09Mar2021, the patient was not feeling well enough. On 10Mar2021 at 08:00, the patient experienced diarrhea (she's only gone to the bathroom twice). On Mar2021, the patient experienced exhaustion and no appetite at all. On an unspecified date, the patient experienced a high level of shortness of breath (patient was unsure if this was due to COVID-19). The patient underwent laboratory tests and procedures which included an echocardiogram on an unspecified date: her left atrium was enlarged and her cardiac numbers were high, they were going to monitor her heart and the doctors didn't know if it was because she had COVID-19 or if it was that the doctors got lucky and found it, they had nothing to compare it to because she only had this one echocardiogram. The patient had history of epilepsy migraines (can pinpoint the spot where it hurts), she thought she would try sumatriptan succinate (IMITREX) for this headache (her whole head hurt), as it didn't interact with her other medications. The patient also took acetaminophen/diphenhydramine (TYLENOL PM; Lot: GF6062, Expiry: Jun2022), ibuprofen (patient thinks the Lot is QWE2546A, but is unsure) for the headache. The patient took ondansetron (ZOFRAN) which she had from a previous prescription and that made the vomiting stop. The events did not require an emergency room or physician office visit. The patient did not think that the reactions were due to her epilepsy medication. The clinical outcome of excruciating body pain was resolved on 09Mar2021 (it's hard for the caller to say if she has recovered because she had COVID-19 aftereffects and had body pains that come back intermittently), sore arm / front of her calves, front of her thighs, left arm, 3 left fingers, shaking, shivering/chills, pulse ox and it dropped down to 93, spinal column hurt the worst (the spine from the top of her neck to her butt), butt muscles hurt really bad, caller's spinal column hurt the worst, the front of her calves and hip joints, spinal column hurt the worst, the very edges of her back, the side of her back was excruciating, dizziness, vomiting, not feeling well enough, no appetite at all was resolved on 09Mar2021; headache was not resolved (unless the caller was asleep, she felt the headache); exhaustion was not resolved; diarrhea and high level of shortness of breath was unknown. Information on the lot/batch number has been requested.

After waiting the post vaccine required 15 minutes, I leisurely left the site and decided to go grab lunch. I picked up my order at 2:45, so my guess is I took my first bite around 2:50. That's when I noticed I couldn't swallow. I began to choke since I couldn't swallow my food. I had some water, relaxed myself, and tried to keep eating. It was hard to do. Now that it's 5:30, my throat still feels slightly closed.

The patient COVID results were sent to the local health department for genetic sequencing (pending) and SARS titers were drawn (pending). Unfortunately, the HD unit does not have B/L information (although the B/L # was put on the patient's COVID vaccine cards, a record was not kept in the HD unit).

Information on the lot/batch number has been requested.; Sender's Comments: Based on temporal association, a contributory role of the suspect drug cannot be excluded for the events vaccination failure, COVID-19, COVID-19 pneumonia, and sepsis. However, the patient's multiple medical comborbidities including renal failure requiring dialysis, lupus, and morbid obesity along with the risk of COVID-19 infection in light of the current pandemic are the more likely explanations for the development of these infections. The events gastrointestinal hemorrhage, hemorrhage, hemolysis and troponin increased are attributed to intercurrent medical conditions, and are considered unrelated to the suspect drug. The patient is currently on warfarin which may increase the risk for bleeds. This case will be reassessed upon receipt of additional information. 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.; Reported Cause(s) of Death: GI bleed

Nose started to get a little stuffy; Throat feels thick or full; Tender to press on neck; A little headache behind the eyes; not quite tight but kind of tight, swallowing a little difficult; This is a spontaneous report received from a contactable consumer (patient, self-reported). A 52-years-old female patient received a first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Formulation: Solution for injection, Lot number: ES305 and expiration date was not reported), via an unspecified route of administration in right arm on 30Mar2021 at 13:30, as single dose for COVID-19 immunization. The patient's medical history included nodule on thyroid, hysterectomy and allergy to crab. The patient concomitant medications included estradiol 3/1 mg cream, once daily. The patient reported that she went and got the first dose of the Covid-19 vaccine and waited the allotted time period after getting the vaccine. she left the vaccination facility and went to the grocery store and was doing shopping, about 45 minutes after she received her Covid-19 vaccine, she noticed that her nose started getting a little stuff and her throat was feeling funny, throat felt thick or full and she drank some water. Patient read a little something about nodules and how they can enlarge after the Covid-19 vaccine, she worried if that's what was happening. she thought to herself to just breathe, it felt like her throat was not getting tight, but maybe thick or fuller. it was definitely tender to press on her neck. Patient reported that her concern was that she did not know if the tight and full feeling in her throat was an allergic reaction or if the nodule on her thyroid enlarged and it took a little while for the full, thick feeling to go away after 1.5 to 2 hours her throat was more normal and side of the nodule continued to hurt for a little while. Couple of hours later, she took her son back to the vaccination facility so that her son could get the Covid-19 vaccine and reported that the lady she was talking to at the vaccination facility told the patient that she was probably having an anxiety attack and that was why her throat felt full or thick. The second dose of the Covid-19 vaccine coming up next week, she wanted to check into it and see if there's something different she should do before her next dose of the Covid-19 vaccine. The full, thick feeling in her throat that she wouldn't say that it felt like she couldn't breathe. The stuffy nose subsided within an hour of beginning. Throat felt full or thick feeling in her throat was not quite tight but kind of tight due to it swallowing was a little difficult. The tenderness in her neck pretty much subsided 2-3 days after it began on 10Apr2021. The patient had a headache on and off for a few days. She reported that she would say that the headaches are not still ongoing and she noticed the headache several days after she received the Covid-19 vaccine on 30Mar2021, she gets headaches occasionally but this was a different type of headache. The patient never verified the placement of the Essure coil and reported that the doctor that performed the hysterectomy took a picture and the Essure coil was visible poking out of the caller's fallopian tube. Patient reported that the physician took everything out all at once and that the physician didn't want to cut anything out due to PEP fibers. No additional vaccines administered and adverse events does not require a visit to emergency room or physician office. There was no prior vaccinations within 4 weeks. The outcome of the event Nose started to get a little stuffy was recovered on the same day (30Mar2021) and the outcome of the other events, throat feels thick or full, tender to press on neck and little headache behind the eyes was recovered on an unknown date and the outcome of the event difficult in swallowing was unknown.

Besides the normal symptoms headache, tired, nausea and headache at about 6:30 pm my heart started racing and I was getting short of breathe. The following day I felt better during the day, but again at around 6:30 pm the normal symptoms came back, but my heart and lungs felt like they were going to explode. I wanted to go to the hospital, but we checked my blood pressure and heart rate and it was normal so after 2 hours of feeling this way I was finally able to fall asleep. It happened off and on for the next 4 days, but not as bad as Tuesday 4/20/2021. It hasn't happened again after Saturday the 24th.

I was really tired afterwards and didn't go to the doctors. *On April 2nd my arm broke out in a rash at the injection site and my arm was tingly and hand was numb. I went to Urgent Care to be seen.

I was alone. I have little memory of the early a.m. hours after the vaccination. I wasn't cold but was trembling so I thought the bones in the roof of my mouth were cracking. It took me hours to get up and get to the kitchen to get tylenol which was impossible with the trembling. I had a 100.8 fever, though the thermometer didn't really stay in my mouth. I was extremely short of breath. All of my nail beds were blue. I honestly don't remember all details of that round of after effects other than that I could barely walk. The next afternoon when I sort of came-to I noted I'd used 22 inhalations on my albuteral inhaler the hours I was in bed, I don't remember using it. I had the zaps all day and the next night. I woke with a migraine early am the next morning to the point of almost vomiting, I've not vomited in 15 years. I don't get migrains but for a few back in my 20's. I had some SOB and headache on and off and dizziness persists. there is more, but my greatest concern is the SOB and clear oxygen issue I had with the blue nail beds. I believe I wasn't thinking nor remembering due to that. Had my adult aged kids been here I suspect they'd have called me an ambulance. I wish they had been as I remember being terrified not being able to get up, but I just kept trying to sleep a bit more. There needs to be a MUCH better check system here for people. Maybe even suggested not to be alone the night after the vaccination (either dose really). I've never seen my nailbeds so blue in my life. I've seen it on a friend once years ago, she was bleeding internally. Headaches continue. Oh and food does not taste right yet. It took 2 days for anything to taste normal, but many things still don't.

I also had severe chills and body aches for 24 hours afterwards. The most concerning is the lump in my throat and when I swallow now for going into the 3rd week, I have had this ailment. I'm very concerned.

Immediate dizzyness followed by headache. Next day slight fever, fatigue, flare up of arthritis, swelling in ankles and by 3rd or 4th day, diarreha. 2nd dose had consult with on site doctor about my lingering symptoms. Doctor asked me a few questions. I already had Covid-19 back in January 14th, 2021. Doctor determined i should be fine. It got worse. I honestly felt like i had Covid-19 all over again, only worse beccause I was vomiting the next morninng. I had all the same exact symptoms that I had originally in January, only worse, besides vometing, arthritis flare up, feel like I have carpal tunnel syndrom, couldn't do anything with my right hand for 2 days, and the swelling of ankles/feet and hands. Do not let me forget about the fatigue and shortness of breath. I feel like i have been hit by a truck. I even had the fever for 1 day. It was only around 99, however, I naturally run at 97.7, so 99 is high for me. Personally, I feel like I received the vaccine too soon after actually having Covid-19. I am just praying that this arthritis and carpal tunnel symptoms go away. Oh and the random shooting pains all through out my body. I am still having that as well and it has been 8 days since my 2nd dose.

On April 28th I received my shot, within 2 days of that I started to break out in a rash down both arms and legs. A couple days later my breathing got more complicated. When I have my face mask on it's already hard to breath, but when I take my face mask off I still can't breath normally. The doc sent me for a CTA of my lungs on May 11th when they noticed I had multiple blood clots in my lungs. I ended up in the hospital on May 11th and started blood thinners the very next day. On or about the day of the vaccine, the rash started. The doctors put me on a dose pack and I had to stop taking my chemo for 3 days while on the steroid dose pack. The rash did go away by May 11th, but I still have the scabs from itching the rashes. On May 12th I started to get a sharp pain in my head that lasted for about a week. The doctors told me to get my 2nd shot. They wanted me to start the dose pack the morning of getting the 2nd shot in the afternoon. That vaccine was three weeks to the date of my 1st vaccine. I didn't want to get the 2nd dose because of the reactions to the 1st dose, but I only got it to see my kids to get on a plane. The reaction after my second vaccine was a little worse. My arms got really itchy and my breathing got worse.

Immediately after the vaccination, my stomach started to hurt and I started to get a panic feeling. I was in the waiting room, developed hives, started to itch and threw up. I went home and took 2 Allegra and Pepcid. I called my doctor to inform him. He instructed to increase my meds to 4 tablets of Allegra daily and 2 Pepcid daily. At home, my throat started to get scratchy like it was closing up. I wanted to wait it out. The next day, I developed a pain in the lower left area of my abdomen and had severe diarrhea. This was happening on and off for about 2 weeks. I called my doctor to inform him. Things did start to improve and I had another episode of hives. I also developed episcleritis which is inflammation in my eye. I went to an optometrist and was prescribed an eye drop which contained antibiotics and dexamethasone. That did not help my condition. I went to Urgent Care and was instructed to go to the ER (Ohio Health Pickerington). They examined my eyes and referred me to an opthalmologist. The next day, I went to the opthalmologist and was diagnosed with episcleritis and prescribed Prednisolone eye drops. It seems to be helping. I again developed severe hives on 6/20/2021 from head to knees and prescribed Prednisone. The prednisone helped clear up my hives as well as the episcleritis.

05/18/2021 around 2AM I woke up in the middle of the night with severe chills and I took my temperature and it was 100.8 degrees. For me, I'm usually at 97.2 degrees. Everything in my body hurt. I stayed home from work the next day and the fever didn't break. I never got sweaty but it just didn't break. I treated it with either ibuprofen or Tylenol. It eventually went away and I was fine. A week later on 05/25/2021 the same thing happened where I woke up in middle of night shaking and a fever of 101.3 degrees. Every part of my body hurt, behind my eyeballs hurt. I called my doctor and because I had a fever and she said I couldn't come into the office. My heart was fluttering as well and she said just go to the ER and get checked out and have them do a COVID test even though I'm fully vaccinated. I went to hospital and they did a rapid PCR COVID test which came back negative but my blood work, liver was off, proteins were off. The doctor did not come anywhere near me and told me I had UTI, gave me antibiotic, and sent me home. I've had UTI's before and I know what they feel like and this didn't feel like that. The next day 05/26/2021 I did a video visit with my doctor and I still didn't feel right. The fever part of it broke but she said that since I was still having the weird heart thing just go straight to ER so I said ok. The next morning my heart was fluttering so I went to the ER again but I went to a different hospital ER. They did blood work, EKG, Epstein-Barr, but no COVID test this time. My doctor had said to me that I really sound like I had COVID regardless of negative test. Again, the liver function was high, they did hepatitis ABC that all came back negative. Epstein-Barr came back high but not hugely high. They just said they didn't know what was wrong with me. They said it might be hepatitis or Epstein-Barr but I didn't have symptoms of mono. I did have tiny cough sometimes. They did a chest x-ray on me and didn't find anything mysterious. Over next few days they kept re-running blood and liver function test and it was still off for another 2 weeks. They sent me to cardiology because of shortness of breath and chest pain along with palpitations. He ordered more blood work and a stress echo. This past Tuesday 07/06/2021 he did angiogram thinking he would find blockages but he found nothing. He said my heart looked good but no explanation. I have never had heart palpitations before in my life. By 06/24/2021 my liver enzymes were back to normal but they're still not sure what is going on with my heart but from what he told me I don't have any blockages and my heart looks fine. My next appointment with cardiology is on 07/22 or 07/23. I was also having some vaginal bleeding and I was at the time 7 months into menopause. I went to Gynecology and they found polyps and I am going into have procedure to have polyps removed.

The numbness in the tongue and hands continue. Severe shortness of breath is continuing. Respiratory disorder continues, unable to clear my lungs after several Dr. visits and ER visits.

SIDE EFFECTS FROM Pfizer- April 5, 2021, Lightheaded, equal Librium issues from top of stair, I?d fall going downstairs like my muscles would give out or I couldn?t control their movement or lose balance, black outs, fatigue, seeing stars as if I was dehydrated. Muscle tightness in my back, legs, buttocks to the point they would lock up, stop working and the pain would be unbearable walking 10? to 15? (I was up to ½ mile walking prior to this) without any notice and I could not move, I would have to wait 15-20 minutes before I could move or just crawl in pain. Spasms throughout my body I cannot control, previous migraines are more frequent, severe, and so debilitating I would stay in bed up to 6 hours with ice on my neck in pure darkness. My dog would have to poop and pee in the house if my neighbor wasn?t home. This is continuing to this day. More in my hips now than other joints but the muscle tightness continues. The only thing that has gone less frequent to less than once a month is spasms have dissipated (July 2021) in time. At the end of July, 2021, Soft tissue damaged areas on my head started from a motorcycle accident from 2008, became so tender to the touch it was impossible to take a shower, my hygiene is suffering which puts my health in danger. The water touching my head would bring me to tears, I went from showering every day to once a week. I stopped going to the chiropractor because it hurts to be touched. I cannot lay down or sit more than a few minutes at a time, I use Lidocaine mixed with CBD balm all over my body and scalp. Memory fog, forgetfulness, confusion, double vision, major hair loss, bumps on my skin, tender stomach, shortness of breath without humidity and inside with air conditioner on (very rare for me), legs show signs of swelling, tingling, continual extreme numbness in my extremities, I?ve broken all my coffee cups, I?ve tried to get up and have fallen because I didn?t realize my legs were numb after sleeping or sitting. All my joints, bottom of my feet, heels neck shoulders. After going to the bathroom, I?m washing my hands, and if I don?t sit back down on the toilet, I will pee myself immediately. These side effects started around mid- May 2021 and have not gone away and stabbing chest pain on the left shoulder/neck area kinda like cardio spasms around my heart that go away after 15-30 second but excruciating pain happening 2-3 within a week waking me up I started Online Virtual classes in December 2020, one on one weekly courses with a therapist/case manager and weekly group courses , and completed them in June 2021. I elected to Virtual classes due to cancelled bed dates since beginning of 2019 due to COVID. I felt like a new person ready to start ?living for the first time? and get out and into a place with no humidity. Better for my health was my concern. It took watching the news once with massive destruction going on, children being killed by drive by shootings, fires destroying buildings and businesses I once visited, places I?ve where with my sister worked as a hair stylist, and brother used to live when we talked. So much hate, what happened to the world while I was fixing myself to be mentally healthier and vaccinated to be able to rejoin the community again? Since July 2021, I feel like something inside me snapped, broke ? the media coverage, the center misleading or changing COVID reports, leader doing nothing to stop the racism/hate damage control and deaths, has taken away all my hard work away from me! The misunderstanding of COVID, the vaccine side effects has scared to into believing I cannot leave my home, or I will die.

Tuesday 6 go the first Pfizer Covid vaccine at the race track. In the past I have had angioedema and breathing issues but never severe enough to warrant going to hospital with several injections and from over the counter meds and prescription meds. So I was wary but decided to risk a jab. Straight up got tingling tongue and lips but after 15 min was just dizzy and roughly the same feeling. I am a slow up taker and excreter though. By the time I got home, about 20 min after the 15 min wait my neck on the injection side and swelled so much I no longer had a jaw and my eyes and cheeks were pretty puffy. Then the breathing issue started. I called the gp who said Tylenol, benedryl. Usually have them made because I have problems with additives but i don?t have any right now. So I used two ea kids chewable which allow me to have a dosage that works for me as I am sensitive to larger doses which can cause pvcs. Things were better but not good enough so took Zyrtec 10 ml/24 hr. If I had not had a similar experience with other injections this would have completely freaked me out. Thank goodness my quick treatment worked well enough that I felt confident worse was unlikely to happen, though the gp and allergist both wanted me to go to the er. Yesterday I did a repeat of Tylenol and benedryl in the morning and Zyrtec in the afternoon at two pm then Tylenol and benedryl again in the evening as I still had angioedema and felt tight in breathing. Repeat benedryl and Tylenol today but no Zyrtec as felt good enough to ride stationary bike a very slow Five miles. As to fever and other typical symptoms it has been hard to tell what is reaction and what is simply the vaccine doing its job. I did not take my temperature but have felt hot no general malaise. I recognize my symptoms are unusual but felt you should have them.

I had a headache - which became severe and lasted about 8 days. That started on day two. It worsened each day - by day four it was pretty bad. About day 2 and 3, I felt a little sick in my chest - a little wheezy and breathing mildly labored. Pain and discomfort in my neck (like my lymph). I had some fatigue on day 3 to day 7. The day before I sought care I broke out in canker sores in multiple places in my mouth and that's when I sought care because I work by talking. I got that care on Day 5. I have had canker sores before but never had an outbreak like this before. On my tongue, cheeks, lower lip and one up between the gums and the cheek up on my left back - all over. I called them canker sores but the doctor called them something else - not sure what that was. Related to a Herpes Simplex. San Cyclovir - 1200 mg single dose. Triamcinolone oral paste. Those helped with the symptoms. Three or 4 days after seeing her, the symptoms were resolving and by 5th day after they were pretty much gone. The headache resolved around day 10 after vaccine. Fatigue resolved around day 8.

I felt an immediate flush to my whole body and my throat started to tighten and swell. But it stopped after about 1 minute. I felt the same thing again after maybe 5 minutes and then about 45 minutes (on my way home). Since then, I have been experiencing allergic reactions to many foods and medicines that I have eaten/taken for years. I feel constant pressure/swelling on my throat and neck. I was hoping it would calm down after a few days. On monday April 12th I accidently consumed a few drops of milk, which normally would just cause stomach upset, but this set off another round of pressure in my throat. I tried to rest and took some benadryl, but on Tuesday I went to the walk-in clinic. They prescribed me some steroids (3 pills), and gave me a steroid shot. I have stopped taking the pills, as I seem to be reacting to something in them. The reaction is the same, throat swelling, flushed feeling, red face. This does not seem to be fading, as I had hoped.

Medical history bipolar disorder, breast cancer, and slightly high blood pressure. Patient had a right mastectomy and had lymph nodes removed from the right side. In the spring, when everyone was mowing grass and it was real humid outside, she got welts on her body. It was temporary and went away. Patient would get really itchy. Concomitant medications included letrozole for breast cancer (the tumor in her breast was powered by hormones. This drug suppressed hormones) from 2017 and ongoing, omeprazole for constant heartburn from an unspecified date and ongoing, propranolol hydrochloride (PROPANOLOL) for anxiety from 2016 and ongoing, clonazepam for anxiety from 2016 and ongoing, and venlafaxine hydrochloride (EFFEXOR) for bipolar disorder from an unspecified start date and ongoing.

When she was a kid, her doctor put her on steroids. Never happened after age 12. Patient also got the influenza vaccine (flu shot) a couple of years before. The patient experienced redness in right arm at mastectomy site, and warm to touch, welts, red bumps, itching, and nauseated on 20Apr2021. Patient had a right mastectomy and had lymph nodes removed from the right side. In the area where that occurred, it had become red, inflamed, and a little welty. Not all of the welts were raised, they look like they were in the skin. There was redness and it was like someone scratched her and was kind of itchy. She took 2 diphenhydramine hydrochloride (BENADRYL). Patient was very sensitive to allergies, but was not allergic to anything. Sometimes she broke out in welts in the spring. Patient got the injection in the left side but the reaction was occurring in the right side. Patient was pretty tired, but she was concerned about the rash. Patient was concerned that the right arm was roughly 2" bigger than the left arm around it. Patient had been measuring the circumference, because nurses were paranoid about things like that. It was usually not 2" more around. Patient woke up this around 10:00 am. Around roughly 12:20 pm, or probably 10 after 12, she looked in the mirror and said there it was. She noticed the itching and thought it was dry skin. That area was prone to dry skin. The welty points of redness that were raised. It looked like someone had scratched across the area. It was red, and might be the end of one red scratchy area might be a bump. It looked like, if were to put hand where the nipple used to be and open up the area. That would all be covered. It included the upper arm and the inside of the shoulder, like the front side of the shoulder. It was raised and welty redness. Not all areas were raised and was bumpy. It was all pretty red and warm to the touch. The itchiness started more after she saw it, which was terrible. Patient took diphenhydramine hydrochloride because she was concerned about an allergic reaction. She also had scheduled medications that she took in the morning. Patient took 50 mg diphenhydramine hydrochloride this morning. Patient took at 12:10 pm when noticed these things. At first, she didn't think anything, she didn't think like it was the Pfizer shot or anything. It was just a normal day. Diphenhydramine hydrochloride had done nothing for the welts yet. Patient then felt kind of nauseated. It started when we first got on the phone. She couldn't put her finger on it. Patient went to the emergency room last Monday. The incident had nothing to do with any vaccine. She had chest pain and shortness of breath. They drew all of the labs. If she wanted to know if anything in the labs was different from then and now, she could. Everything was normal. She got an inhaler. They though it might be related to all of her allergies. The only way she would go see a doctor, is if she saw that the arm was getting much bigger, like it grew 2" more. If she had a hard time breathing, she would call 911. Patient had rash around right arm on 20Apr2021, in area of past breast mastectomy. Patient first noticed itching and the redness around 12:20 pm on 20Apr2021. Had gotten progressively worse. Patient did not see in the emergency department and was not hospitalized. Patient was not admitted to an Intensive Care Unit. Multiorgan were involved. Patient just noticed new area that formed. There were lines coming out of the area and came below the sleeve line. The red rash was spreading. It looked like something invisible scratched it. There was a triangle of three dots with a little scratch mark below the sleeve. There was another dot area on the forearm that itches, just like the other stuff did. Stomach had been feeling a little jumpy. Patient had already eaten breakfast. It was not horrible. Patient would watch it and drink ginger ale. Patient was asking what parameters should be for calling 911. She was home alone. This was not life threatening but if it turned into something bigger or if she noticed getting a bigger rash, she might have to call 911. Outcome of the events was unknown. No follow-up attempts are needed; information about lot/batch number cannot be obtained.

Difficulty breathing; Lungs inflammed; pain in her lungs; become painful; spasms are extremely painful; Headache; Fever; her Nut Cracker Esophagus kicked in to, after the shot; her Nut Cracker Esophagus kicked in to, after the shot; This is a spontaneous report from two contactable consumers via a Pfizer- sponsored program. A 53-years-old female patient received the first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration on 06May2021 (Batch/Lot number was not reported) as single dose for covid-19 immunisation. She reports she has a history of a condition called NutCracker Esophagus, it is a rare condition. She reports they did not know about it much in the 90's. She was on a number different medications to treat it but, they did not know that they were causing the issues, the medications were. It made it difficult to breath, speak or eat while coming off of the medications. The medications were causing the NutCracker Esophagus spasms then. Caller reports when she takes a drug, this will happen. She may have to wait 2 or 3 days for it to come out her system and for the esophagus to relax and the pain to go away. This also triggers some breathing issues with it. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. Caller reports the 1st night after the shot, she had mild ones, the typically symptoms coming in the hours after the shot. She got the headache, a fever for the next day or so and difficulty going into the weekend with breathing. Caller reports she has been getting over having COVID. She had COVID 3-4 weeks before the shot, her lungs were still getting better from having covid and that her doctor did not know how long it would take for her lungs to get better. She had difficulty breathing this week, her lungs were in-flamed and still her Nut Cracker Esophagus kicked in to, after the shot. Caller reports when this had happened with other drugs before she would wait and it would come out of system but, she is worried because it was devastating on her body this week and wants to know how long would this reaction last for? Is it a matter the components coming out her system or the vaccine itself? Caller reports she got COVID. On 29Mar2021 she started to develop the symptoms and on 12Apr2021 she got a positive test. She was seen in the hospital and her symptoms were severe. Then the symptoms went down but, she was not sure if she should get the shot due still having difficulty breathing. The nurses and doctors recommended she should get the shot. She was encouraged to get the shot because they did not know when the lungs would improve. Caller reports she should have seen her doctor before getting the shot because her breathing problems are difficult and that continued into the weekend. She reports she had more inflammation in the lungs but is not sure if it is a result of the vaccine or the COVID but, it did become painful. Then, she noticed the NutCracker spasming, so she was not sure with headache that came on and with other things coming that became more extreme what was going on with the breathing. This week she has had difficulty breathing and pain in her lungs. The callers Pulmonologist office ordered a Chest X-ray for her to compare to the one done on 12Apr2021 and it was clear. She saw her regular doctor yesterday about all this. Caller reports what was not part of the COVID was the NutCracker Esophagus and it has become more problematic. She has been calling around to her doctor's office to see when this going to change, and they are not sure. Caller states if it was a regular drug it would come out in a few days but, since it is this, how long can she reasonably expect this to last? Caller reports the spasms are extremely painful and she is frustrated because of it. Would it be part of the regular vaccine or part of components that are doing this? Outcome of events headache and fever was recovered on 08May2021. Outcome of other events was unknown. Information on the lot/batch number has been requested.

She had about 7 quarter size areas on her left butt and down her left leg and the lymph nodes in her legs were swollen and painful. The emergency room checked her blood pressure and it was fine, they checked her oxygen level and that was fine, they did an EKG and that was ok, and they did blood work and that was ok too. In the emergency department, she did have an IV and they gave her Cortisone in her IV. She had the IV in her right arm and when she received the Cortisone her arm was getting warm and then she felt flushed through her whole body. It was really strange, and she was super scared. Also while she was in the emergency room, the emergency room staff tried 5 to 6 times in both arms trying to get blood and he tried to go in her lower arm and she finally asked that someone else try to get blood. They discharged her and told her to follow up with her primary care physician (PCP) and an allergy doctor. Since 04May2021, she has had four other allergy attacks. She loses 3-4 lbs after each episode and has lost a total of 12 pounds. She reported she saw her primary care doctor on 18May2021 and received a prescription for steroids for a herpes outbreak on her buttocks and went down her legs. During her doctor visit on 18May2021, she had allergy testing done: She is allergic to almost everything, and she can only eat chicken and rice because she now has a severe gluten allergy. She was told to take 2 Allegra per day for 10 days and was given 1mg dexamethasone to take if she feels really bad. When she saw her family doctor, her doctor asked her if she had been in a fight because her arms looked so bad from all the needle sticks trying to get blood. It was very painful. She doesn't think the allergic reaction was related to the emergency room staff not being able to get blood from her. And she does drink a lot so she doesn't get dehydrated. She had some allergy tests and those came back that she's allergic to almost everything. The doctor also prescribed Valacyclovir HCl 1gm tablet for the herpes simplex. Her doctor told her to take it for another week and then stop taking it and then start again if she has another outbreak. The Acyclovir she was taking wasn't working. It was Acyclovir 800mg in a pharmacy bottle (Discard by date: 14Aug2021). Her gynecologist gave her Naproxen to take for pain. She does a lot of yoga and when her joints are hurting she takes Aleve. She did take Aleve on the day of her first Covid 19 vaccine and she drank a lot of water and a lot of Gatorade. The patient reported that the itchy head, hands, and ears happened 3 or 4 more times. She's thinking this could be related to the Covid-19 vaccine, that the Covid-19 vaccine triggered her allergies. This past Monday/Tuesday (May2021) she had her most recent allergic attack (she is not sure if it was from eating potato chips or just taking one Allegra that day), she had difficulty breathing, lip swelling, urticaria/ a rash from the bottom of her breasts to her nose. She had an EpiPen nearby and she took an 100mg suppository of prednisone. Her doctor told her to take 2 Allegras everyday indefinitely. She is feeling better today and was able to go to a yoga class- but still has the rash. She saw her PCP yesterday (25May2021) and got a prescription for valacyclovir, she is to take it for 7 days and then start again if it flares up again. She is getting an inhaler today for if she has difficulty breathing again due to an allergic reaction. Her doctor thinks this may all be caused by a histamine intolerance from the shot, her other HCPs do not believe its vaccine related. Her doctor also said that it could be due to a bad mosquito bite that she got two weeks before her first allergic reaction or due to a teeth whitening procedure that she had issues that she also received before the allergic reactions started. The clinical outcome of the events " urticaria/ a rash from the bottom of her breasts to her nose" was not resolved, and the outcome of the events, difficulty breathing/couldn't breathe, "a herpes outbreak on her buttocks/herpes simplex outbreak/7 quarter size areas on her left butt and down her left leg", "four other allergy attacks/ allergic reaction during a barbeque", an upset stomach, "a rash completely covering her hands, head and ears", loses 3-4 lbs after each episode and has lost a total of 12 pounds, lip swelling, hand were itching/head was itching/ears were itching, lymph nodes in her legs were swollen, lymph nodes in her legs were painful, severe gluten allergy and "staff tried 5 to 6 times in both arms trying to get blood" were unknown.

I began to experience chest pain--it felt as if I had a very tight band around my chest. It hurt to breath. I recognized this feeling because 20 years prior I had pericarditis and went to the ER. If I didn't know better, I would have been concerned that I was having a heart attack. I saw the cardiologist about a week later and a few days after that he sent me for an ultrasound of my heart. He told me to take a high does of ibuprofen round the clock for about 2 weeks or until the pain stopped. it took about 2 weeks on these meds to feel better. Now this pain comes back periodically and I take ibuprofen.

Medical history included eosinophilic asthma. Concomitant medication(s) included salbutamol (ALBUTEROL HFA), ipratropium bromide, salbutamol sulfate (DUONEB) and prednisone, all taken for asthma. The patient called because she had an interesting experience. She has a complicated medical history, she was diagnosed with high eosinophilic asthma, and takes on and off prednisone and going to see a specialist and possibly starting a new medication soon. She got the first Pfizer COVID vaccine on 12Mar2021, stated immediately after she was fine, later that night she felt really weak and tired and so she did fine the next day Saturday (13Mar2021) but was still weak and tired. It resolved by Sunday (14Mar2021). On 14Mar2021, it was hell, she was off of prednisone at the time, her asthma was acting up at the time, stated she takes albuterol and DuoNeb nebulizers as needed. On 14Mar2021, she was coughing all night, it was a different weird coughing not the same as her asthma, sounded shallow, felt like she was hyperventilating. She could not get her O2 sats up, that they were sitting around 90%, felt like someone was sitting on her chest which was not normal for her. The patient stated that the albuterol was not doing anything for her, clarified that it did help a little. The DuoNeb worked, her O2 sats went up to 94, but it was an awful night. On Monday (15Mar2021), she thought she needed to get on prednisone, took 20mg of prednisone and stated at that point she was unsure if it was her disease or the vaccine. She called doctor on 15Mar2021 for a new prednisone prescription and was unable to pick it up because the pharmacy closed, that night she had bad night. She took prednisone on Tuesday, the next morning, took 20 mg in the morning and 10mg that evening, stated that 30 will usually knock out her asthma but she had another bad night. She was really smart that she did some reading, read that prednisone could help people that have an over active immune system or it can weaken the immune system. She further reported that the previous night, she only took 10 mg of prednisone and had a great night. She has only taken 10 mg on 18Mar2021. She was doing really well on 18Mar2021. The patient asked whether she should get the second vaccine - scared to death if that was a reaction to the vaccine, secondly, was there any way to see how much immunity she has with just one shot like a test or something, to see if maybe she had COVID before.

About 10 minutes (moments before they told me sage to leave) I began thinking I was having a hard time breathing but associated it to anxiousness about receiving the vaccine. Ran my errands in town and kept thinking I was having problems breathing. Again, thought I was imagining. For just a minute or so it felt like my throat was tight, but soon vanished so again thought I was imagining. Just didn?t feel ?right? rest of day but assumed I was dreaming it up. That evening when I laid down to go to sleep, I quickly realized I was having shortness of breath. Could barely breath. I checked my oxygen level & it was running 91-94. However, my heart rate (usually sits between 55-65 when resting) was running in high 70?s to mid-80?s. Called ER and asked if I could take Benadryl- they said yes. Took one adult Benadryl and felt a bit better soon after. An hour later took another along with a Pepcid. Eased up enough then I could go to sleep. Didn?t take any more meds, but it was another day & 1/2 before I felt ?normal? (I have CHF so I deal with some sob always).

After the first vaccine on 2/6/2021, I did not have any reaction except a sore arm until 2/10/2021 when developed a bad headache causing me to leave work. When I awoke on 2/11/21 I felt worse as the day went on until I had complete flu like symptoms. On Friday, 2/12, I went to my primary care doctor and they did a COVID-19 test which was negative. Hence, I just waited for the reaction to go away, I was not better and able to resume normal activity until 2/15/21. I did decide to get the second shot as I was not entirely sure it was a result of the vaccine. On 2/27/2021, I received the second vaccination. Again, the immediate side effect was only a sore arm. On the following Monday (3/1/2021) see cont.I began to have what I thought was muscle aches and pains around the mid section on my body but they were manageable. On Tuesday and Wednesday (3/3/2021) the pain and area of the pain spread and intensified. I was unable to sleep or find a comfortable position and was losing strength and knew I needed medical attention as I was afraid it was a heart issue. My husband took me to the ER (3/4/2021). The ER doctor ran a CT scan with contrast and the result was a blood clot in my right lung and pneumonia in my left lung along with pleurisy. I was then admitted to Clinic on 3/4/2021. I remained in the hospital until 3/7/2021. There I was treated with IV antibiotics, warfarin, Lovenox (80mg), and pain medication for the pleurisy. I was also on a full time heart monitor and my heart was checked several times. Since returning home, I finished a dose of two antibiotics and am using an inhaler to help with breathing. I have also just finished a long dose of steriods. My INR is still not regulated to the therapeutic level. Prior to this reaction, I was in the therapeutic range and had been checked. As of 4/3/2021 I am at 1.8 not in the 2-3 range and have increased my dose from before the reaction at 7.5 mg to 9.0 mg daily.

Shortness of breath; fall short of breath; Tightness in her chest; Severe allergic reaction; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 54-year female patient received the second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE; Lot Number: EN6202, Expiration Date: Jun2021), via an unspecified route of administration in left arm, on 26Feb2021 at 08:30, at a single dose, for COVID-19 immunization. The patient's medical history and concomitant medications were not reported. The patient previously took the first dose of BNT162B2 (Lot Number: EL9262, Expiration Date: May2021) in Feb2021 at 54 years of age (left arm) for COVID-19 immunization and experienced fever, soreness at the shot site, and body aches. The patient worked for a hospital but not in a clinical setting; she is an administrator. The patient went for her annual physical last week (Mar2021) and her doctor had called to tell her that she had no antibodies (negative COVID-19 antibody test). The patient had gotten both shots in Feb2021 and was concerned about that. The patient wanted to know if this is something that is common and why does she not have antibodies when she already took the vaccine; what is going on and why was this happening. The patient understands that the vaccine was taken to create antibodies within 14 days of receiving it. The patient was obviously concerned that she is not immune. The patient wanted to protect herself as there was a surge where she lives. The patient lives with 2 sick people and works in the hospital. The patient did have a reaction and was mainly concerned about the shortness of breath on 01Mar2021. 3 days after the second shot, she had gone to take her normal errand walk and started to fall short of breath and tightness in her chest on 01Mar2021. It was not severe. Also, the patient experienced a severe allergic reaction 3 days after the second shot (01Mar2021) but did not have to go to the emergency room. The patient noticed that when she started talking, like if she spoke, she felt a little shortness of breath; states that this is not common. No treatment was given for the events. The patient took it easy for the following week, knowing that she took the vaccine. The patient kind of thought it was working its way into her system. The patient not an athlete and is still concerned about the shortness of breath. It is not constant. This is something that she notices and did not have prior to this vaccine. Never had this feeling, like when bike riding and taking walks, states that she feels it in her chest. It is nothing severe, assuming the vaccine didn't screw anything up in her system. When the patient went for her annual last week (Mar2021), she mentioned this to her doctor. It not continuous but every now and then, feels a bit of this reaction when having to speak for a long time. The patient felt like she is running out of breath. The doctor specializes in cardiology so checked everything, including a chest X-ray and electrocardiogram (EKG) and everything was normal or fine in Mar2021. The symptoms had lasted a couple of days. The patient's main concern was that she has no antibodies. The patient gave blood before her annual exam (unspecified date) and they automatically checked for antibodies and did not find any. The patient was told in an email that it was their standard for when donating blood, to test for COVID-19 antibodies. The patient was also tested as part of her annual exam. This is an emergency vaccine; states that you never know what will come up and wanted to know that she can be safe around other people. The patient lives with her elderly mother and has a brother whom she is responsible for. The patient was now concerned that she is still very much in a situation where she could get sick and that it could be severe. The patient would like to know why this vaccine did not generate antibodies and if there is a booster. It is concerning that she has no antibodies. The patient recovered from the events in Mar2021.

Her heart started raising. That evening she had to lay on her stomach to relieve the pressure and pain in her chest. The following day went to the doctor because her heart was raising so much that she was having troubling breathing and her chest hurt. They did an EKG it was concerning of how fast her heart was beating. That same day the patient was sent to a cardiologist.

Approximately 10 hours after the injection.. I started having very bad and frequent heart palpitations. Nearly every other beat was a palpation. Was made worse by lying down. Continued thru the next day about the same intensity. The third morning.. I awoke to shortness of breath and a tight heavy sensation in the center if my chest (behind my sternum). After a few hours the shortness of breath and the tight burning sensation behind my sternum eased. After about the 3-4th day the palpitations started easing. As of the date of this report.. I am still having them but they are milder now. The next day after the injection.. I made an appointment with a cardiologist because they were still bad. The appointment is tomorrow on the 20th with cardiologist. I have had no other symptoms. Seems to only be cardiac related but certain the injection brought them on as no other circumstance was different. I was not even anxious at all about the injection-until the palpitations started rather abruptly and unexpectedly.

A 54-year-old female patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), dose 2 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Right on 07Mar2021 (Lot Number: EN6204) as single dose for covid-19 immunization. The patient's medical history included history of three spinal surgeries (takes no pain meds, she is not on pain meds, she has never been on or kept taking them); and has "neuropathy and nerve related issues" that were not this bad since ten years ago in 2011, clarified that what she has is not actually neuropathy, something with the peripheral nerve, she says she doesn't remember actual verbiage), since ten years ago in 2011, and the only difference was this vaccination, it was not this bad until this vaccination. She doesn't react well to pharmaceuticals anyway (unspecified). Her medications are that she takes the minimum amount of medications, very minimal (unspecified). There were no concomitant medications. There was no other products. Also, she has not had any other recent vaccinations or started any new medications. For past drug, she didn't take anything other than 5mg of zolpidem tartrate (AMBIEN) to sleep at night because of her spine. Patient previously also took pregabalin (LYRICA) and was off it, was also on gabapentin or neurontin (patient did not have those medications to provide NDC/LOT/EXP for either of them because she took them back to the pharmacy or turned them in to the police station because she doesn't keep medications in her house if she isn't taking them, and she couldn't take that medication). Historical vaccine included first dose of bnt162b2 on 14Jan2021 (at the age of 54-year-old; Lot Number: EN5318) in Arm Right for covid-19 immunization, and for her first dose the only thing was a sore arm, it was very sore, and she only experienced a slight bit of fatigue after her first dose. She received both doses of vaccine. Her first dose was LOT: EN5318 and was given 14Jan2021, and her second dose was LOT: EN6204 given 07Mar2021. The patient was reporting for Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, for she was having a horrible reaction to it "45 days" (as reported) after taking 2nd dose, and had been in the ER, and her temperature still hasn't gone back down to her normal, her oral temp is still raised and her rectal is raised even more. She was not feeling well, she felt very bad, she would never get a vaccine again, that is how bad it was. Since "45 days" later she was still having significant pain and trouble flexing her right hand open and closed. For events treatment, she took over the counter Tylenol for fever and pain, strength unknown. Patient said she had not had this kind of disabling symptoms or anything before this vaccination. She had a slight fever almost the whole "45 days". On 08Mar2021, her oral temp was over 98 degrees Fahrenheit when her norm temp being 97.2 or 97.3degrees Fahrenheit. Her rectal temp stayed at 100 degrees Fahrenheit. The next day, actually on the 09Mar2021 (which was two days after her second dose), she had the slight fever, fatigue, and extreme pain through her right side. She said her right side means her shoulders, neck, torso, arm, and entire leg. She also had shortness of breath, and severe nerve pain. She called her primary care provider who said to wait 5 days to be seen. On day 5, or actually the whole five days (reported as in Mar2021), she was in bed and didn't leave her apartment because she was in bed and she was vomiting. On day 2 or within 6 hours of vaccination, she had a feeling of urination, like she had to urinate when she didn't, that feeling of urination was equivalent of having contrast dye (NDC/LOT/EXP: Unknown) put in her IV which makes her feel like she is peeing her pants but she did not, and that feeling has not gone away. On day 5 (11Mar2021), she was dizzy and fell. In Mar2021, she was disorientated and vomiting, she couldn't eat anything other than soup. On day two (Mar2021) she had some kind of eye pain that is still there "45 days later", it feels like pins and needles. Her skin was burning and painful to the touch, she couldn't keep an IV in her when she was in the ER. She was not admitted to the hospital. She was having headaches, and joint and muscle pain. She had nausea and vomiting at different times. She continued to have shortness of breath. She had a horrible lack of appetite. She had sores in her mouth and nose. She had anal hemorrhoid sores. Last night (05Apr2021 )she had a headache that was severe like someone put a knife behind her right eye, and when she got up (06Apr2021) her eye felt heavy and her eye was drooping. She also had difficulty speaking, with her words. She says she had passed out, and had been dropping things, she had broken glass. She has been to a neurologist and a gastroenterologist. She clarified that all of these events were after her second dose, for her first dose the only thing was a sore arm, it was very sore, and she only experienced a slight bit of fatigue after her first dose. None of her doctors know what to do, her gastro doctor was giving her an anti inflammatory suppository and was going to do some tests. She had blood done from neurologist and at the ER and no one knows what to do, they keep referring her to other doctors. She wished someone could explain to her, but no one know and they said it was uncharted territory, they didn't know what to do. She is now back on Lyrica which she was off of but the ER prescribed her 300mg three times a day. She wanted to know what the hell is going on with this vaccine, and that she doesn't think having these side effects "45 days" out is normal. She wanted to be transferred to speak with someone about what to do because her doctor's don't know anything. The outcome of the events was unknown. No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information is expected.

Felt funny in her chest, like a really weird, really warm and heavy feeling, almost like she couldn't breathe; almost like she couldn't breathe/Difficulty Breathing; Felt funny in her chest, like a really weird, really warm and heavy feeling/ warm feeling in the chest; having an anaphylactic reaction from the vaccine; Respiratory, Wheezing, Difficulty Breathing and Respiratory Distress; Respiratory, Wheezing, Difficulty Breathing and Respiratory Distress; Very sore right arm where she was given the injection; felt like she was punched several times in her arm; Injection site bruising; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable nurse(patient). The nurse reported similar events for herself and her husband. This is the first of two reports. A 54-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection) (at 54 years of age), dose 1 intramuscular, administered in arm right on 10Mar2021 16:00 (Batch/Lot number was not reported) as a single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included severe asthma which started as a child and then it went away and then as an adult it got severe around 2010 and ongoing, she was an asthmatic and would panic and start feeling worse. She had ongoing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), brain surgery in 2007, low immune system, allergies to cephalosporins, pulmonary and stomach issues; and bradycardia (as her BP usually runs 90/45 and she is bradycardic). Concomitant medications included tiotropium bromide (SPIRIVA RESPIMAT), salbutamol sulfate (PROAIR HFA), fluticasone propionate, salmeterol xinafoate (ADVAIR HFA), salbutamol (VENTOLIN [SALBUTAMOL]), and montelukast (MONTELUKAST), all taken for asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease from an unspecified start date and ongoing; clarithromycin (CLARITIN [CLARITHROMYCIN], omeprazole, phenytoin sodium, azelastine, ipratropium bromide, fluticasone propionate (FLONASE [FLUTICASONE PROPIONATE]), and ipratropium bromide, salbutamol sulfate (DUONEB), all taken for an unspecified indication from an unspecified start date and ongoing; prednisone taken for an unspecified indication from 2021 and ongoing as she was on this steroid 2 weeks before the vaccine; and azithromycin which she takes prophylactically for her low immune system from an unspecified start date and ongoing. She was on a lot of medications period and most are for her pulmonary and stomach issues. The patient previously took propofol, Versed, Nitrous Oxide, and Percocet wherein the patient had drug hypersensitivity and anaphylactic shock with these; adhesive from nicotine patch made her arm to get red and swollen (Dermatitis contact). She previously took EpiPen for anaphylaxis. It was reported that on 10Mar2021, the patient had the first dose of the vaccine and it felt funny in her chest, like a really weird, really warm and heavy feeling, almost like she couldn't breathe. She got her vaccine at a hospital in their clinic and she was transferred from the vaccine clinic to the ER. Stated she was given a shot with an Epi-pen in her thigh at the clinic and transferred to the ER. In the ER, she was given Benadryl and watched for 4 hours. She would state this was medically significant because of airway, breathing, circulation and she felt like she couldn't breathe. She added that it was kind of weird and freaky. She mentioned that along with that, shortly before she was released from the ER, she experienced a very sore arm where she was given the injection. She heard that was very common so she dealt with it. However as the night progressed, it got increasingly worse, it almost felt like she was punched several times in her arm. It probably started between hour 3 and 4 after receiving the vaccine. She added that she had a very sore right arm where she was given the injection; felt like she was punched several times in her arm. It was not serious, just annoying and it was gone 3 days later. She had injection site bruising on 10Mar2021. She stated that she knows this because she was a nurse, but a lot of times, people experienced this reaction when they are given Dilaudid wherein they get a warm feeling in their chest, so they push it really slow and dilute it with saline so it doesn't have the respiratory factor. She stated that this was kind of what the feeling was like for her and it was scary because she didn't expect it. She stated that the ER team that assessed her said, because she wasn't used to that feeling, she may have had a panic attack and that may have made it worse. After she was treated, she spoke with her husband and he had the shot two minutes before her and he had the same feeling but he didn't freak out and didn't want to appear weak. Stated he told her he had the same feeling and it lasted 5 minutes and then it went away. Stated since she got scared, it made it worse. She doesn't know if she had a panic attack that made it worse. She stated that of course her husband didn't tell her that until she was out of the ER, that it does go away. That made her feel better because she wasn't the only one that experienced that. States he didn't say anything about it, because he was worried about her, he said it was a warm feeling in the chest and not being able to breathe but he didn't want to say anything because she was an asthmatic and would panic and start feeling worse. She mentioned that they weren't going to let her get the second dose, so she went to an allergy doctor and told them what happened and about her husband having the same reaction and because she was severely immunocompromised. Stated the hospital said they were not giving her the second dose unless an allergist says it is safe and sets a protocol and he had to write a letter to the hospital. Stated she was pre-medicated 24 hours before the vaccine with 50mg Benadryl, 50mg Benadryl the day of the shot and 50mg of Benadryl two days after the shot. Stated she will have full immunity on 14Apr2021. She added that she had a pulmonary doctor, brain cancer doctor, ENT doctor, stated they don't know if it was caused by the vaccine, but they are pretty sure she had a reaction but they can handle it with pre-medicating her. She received the second vaccine on 31Mar2021. She mentioned that she was happy to be able to get her second shot. She stated that at first they didn't want to give it to her because of her reaction but she kept calling. So she went to a hospital to saw an allergist and he had to sign off that it was safe to give her the second shot and under what circumstances. Stated she had the letter from the hospital that she was seen by them and she needed to be pre-medicated and it had to be given at a hospital that had the ability to intervene quickly and she needed to be watched for at least 30 minutes after the vaccine. She mentioned that to go through what she went though, and not be able to get would have been disappointing. Because of her immune system, it is important to get the shot and there was a way around the reaction which worked for her. She added that even having an anaphylactic reaction from the vaccine, she was able to recover quickly. Stated with having asthma, COPD and a low immune system, she may not recover from Covid. It makes sense they evaluated it and came up with a solution and a pre medication protocol and when and how long and she was still able to get the shot because it is important. Answers to follow up questions indicated that on 10Mar2021, the patient had the first dose of the vaccine and it felt funny in her chest, like a really weird, really warm and heavy feeling, almost like she couldn't breathe. She was given the shot and getting ready to get out of the chair and her husband was about to sit down for his shot. Stated she would say the time of the course of the reaction was within under 5 minutes of her injection. The patient required medical intervention with Epi-Pen, Benadryl, and Duo-Neb. The patient was not hospitalized because she was immunocompromised, it was better to watch herself at home and because she had an Epi Pen at home in case she has that sort of reaction returning over a 72 hour period. Stated they instructed her husband and told them if she felt any different to come back to ER. She was not admitted to the ICU. Organ involvement included: Respiratory, Wheezing, Difficulty Breathing and Respiratory Distress. The event required initiation of new medication or other treatment or procedure including Epi-Pen, Benadryl, DuoNeb. Patient have a history of previous allergies: Medication Allergies to Cephalosporins, Anesthesia medications: Propofol, Versed, Nitrous Oxide, Percocet: Anaphylactic shock; Adhesive from nicotine patch, caused her arm to get red and swollen. She takes EpiPen as she had previous history of allergies and since she had multiple medication allergies and had a history of quickly going into anaphylaxis, stated her BP usually runs 90/45 and she was Bradycardic. She did not receive any recent vaccines for any other conditions prior to the events being reported. She did not receive any recent vaccines for SARS-CoV2 other than Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine prior to the event being reported. She has not received any other vaccines around the time of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine vaccination. The patient recovered from 'felt funny in her chest, like a really weird, really warm and heavy feeling, almost like she couldn't breathe', Difficulty breathing, and 'warm feeling in the chest' on 10Mar2021; while having an anaphylactic reaction from the vaccine, Respiratory, Wheezing, Difficulty Breathing and Respiratory Distress were recovered on an unknown date; Vaccination site pain recovered on 13Mar2021 and Injection site bruising recovered on 18Mar2021. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of all events except Vaccination site pain and Injection site bruising. Relatedness of drug to reactions/events: Reaction assessed for events "felt funny in her chest, like a really weird, really warm and heavy feeling, almost like she couldn't breathe", 'very sore right arm where she was given the injection; felt like she was punched several times in her arm.' and Injection site bruising: Method of assessment: Global Introspection: Drug result: Related. Information on the lot/batch number has been requested.; Sender's Comments: Based on available information, the Company considered all serious and non-serious events as possibly associated to BNT162B2 injection, due to a plausible chronological sequence.

bursts of energy; headache; Chills; Panic attack; Panic attack; Hyperventilation; seeing green; feeling faint / dizzy; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer, the patient. A 54-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 MRNA VACCINE; Lot: EN6206), via an unspecified route of administration in the right arm on 26Apr2021 at 08:45 (at the age of 54-years-old) as a single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), asthma from 5 years old, calcification of the breast, vitamin D deficiency, "keep immune system up", ongoing panic and anxiety disorder. Concomitant medications included ascorbic acid/calcium carbonate/calcium pantothenate/calcium phosphate/chromium/cyanocobalamin/folic acid/magnesium carbonate/ magnesium hydroxide/manganese gluconate/nicotinic acid/potassium bicarbonate/potassium carbonate/potassium phosphate dibasic/pyridoxine hydrochloride/quercetin/riboflavin sodium phosphate/sodium bicarbonate/sodium phosphate/thiamine hydrochloride/thioctic acid/zinc ascorbate (EMERGEN-C) to keep immune system up and colecalciferol (D3) for vitamin D deficiency. The patient did not receive any other vaccinations within 4 weeks of the vaccine. On 26Apr2021, right after the vaccination, the patient felt a little dizzy but proceeded to her car anyway, got about half a mile away and felt extreme panic. On 26Apr2021 at 09:35, the patient had a major panic attack (which the patient gets, "but it had to be something really big"). She began hyperventilating on 26Apr2021, felt like she was going to faint. She pulled over and started breathing in her hands until she felt almost normal; the anxiety didn't go away, but that was normal for her. Then the faintness came back, and she pulled over again; mentioned she was in heavy traffic and hurried up to pull over. Eventually she contacted her son and he came and took over the wheel. This happened three times on her 45-minute drive; at 15 minutes, then 10 minutes and then at 9 or 8 minutes. She stated she had nothing to eat or drink before the vaccine and they didn't advise her to get anything to eat or drink and that may have had something to do with it. She could see everything looking greenish and it was a sunny day outside. She had a bottle of water and started to drink, and it subsided for a little bit. She pulled over and sat for 15 minutes; there were trucks and cars going really fast; she was doing self-talk saying you can do this and get home; then she drove about 10 or 15 more minutes; she had stayed on the side so she could pull over; cars honked at her for going so slow and she pulled over again. It happened again after 20 minutes. She was feeling really funny. Her son took her for coffee and something to eat. Throughout the day she was having hyperventilation and anxiety feelings until about 19:30 it went away. She had a good night's rest. On 27Apr2021 in the evening, the patient experienced chills so she put on socks; and she had a headache (she never had headaches), so she went to bed. Then she woke up at midnight and felt really energetic, so she watched a little TV then went back to sleep. Now it was day three and she had a lot of bursts of energy. This morning, 28Apr2021, she had a burst of energy and felt renewed. The events did not require a visit to the physician office or emergency room. The clinical outcome of feeling faint and seeing green was resolved on 26Apr2021; of dizzy, headache, and chills was resolved on 27Apr2021; of panic attack and hyperventilation was not resolved; of bursts of energy was unknown. Information on batch number has been requested

first dose is 10May2021 and the second dose was 15May2021; She had an 101 fever/probably like 100.5 or close to 101; laryngitis; Short of breath/can't catch her breath; Her asthma has gotten worse; delirious/delirium; confused/confusion; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 54-years-old female patient received second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration administered in upper left arm on 15May2021 13:45 (at the age of 54-years-old) (Lot Number: EW0169) as single dose for covid-19 immunization. Medical history included ongoing asthma and had been worse the past 2 days, ongoing panic attacks, ongoing anxiety, ongoing depression, ongoing pain, had 24 operations in the past 4 years, was in a motorcycle wreck and the muffler landed on her lower right leg and burned down to the fibula, she ended up getting staphylococcus from her wounds, had PICC (peripherally inserted central catheter) Iv's for 4 years and after that they went in and cut out 8 inches of her fibula and took muscle from her stomach and placed it down there because it was so shallow where they took the muscle out, because of the thin lining when she had a fall she ended up with a hernia it came through the fascia tissue, she ended up with an 8 pound hernia and had her gall bladder removed which they said was as big as a grapefruit. Concomitant medications included ongoing alprazolam (XANAX) taken for panic attacks and anxiety, had been taking for approximately 21 years; ongoing duloxetine hydrochloride (CYMBALTA) taken for depression and pain, had been taking for about 9 years. Historical vaccine included first dose of BNT162B2 on 10May2021 1:00 pm (at the age of 54-years-old) for covid-19 immunization. There was no Prior Vaccinations (within 4 weeks). There were no additional vaccines administered on same date of the pfizer suspect. The patient was calling regarding the Pfizer injection for Covid, clarified that she was referring to the Covid vaccine. Her voice was a little better right now. She had the second shot Monday and weird things have been happening. She received her second dose of the Pfizer BioNTech Covid 19 vaccine on 15May2021. She first provided a date of the 15May2021 for the second dose and then stated that the first dose was 10May2021. She provided lot number from the vaccine card of EW0169 and the date says 16Apr2021, she said that's the second dose. Attempted to clarify date of 10May2021 as it was 5 days apart from the date she provided for the second dose and she stated that they said it was ok. She provided again that first dose was 10May2021 and the second dose was 15May2021. She provided the only LOT number listed on the card. She did not see any other lot numbers. After receiving the vaccine she was pretty confused and delirious in 2021. People were not able to understand what she was saying until today. She had an 101 fever for two days as well as laryngitis. The morning after the vaccine she thought she was at the grocery store in a buggy and grabbing green beans off the shelf but she was really in bed. For the first 36-48 hours after the vaccine she was talking nonsense. Maybe the fever caused the delirium. She currently had no doctor. She asked if confusion and delirium are side effects of the vaccine. She can't find anywhere to read about the symptoms she had been having. She had been delirious all-day Tuesday and all night long in 2021. Everyone who talked to her told her she was talking out of her head. They couldn't understand anything she was saying, and everything was jumbled and mumbled. She had a fever that went along with it. Laryngitis had been so bad that people couldn't understand her. She was just going to weather her way through it and get to the other end. She had asked her mother where her fiance was and he lives in (city). Her niece, who lives with her was at school and she was asking where she was. When they told her she was at school, she was confused because she thought today was Saturday. She had been in total confusion. Her doctor literally walked out and left the practice and it turned into an urgent care. She was very delirious and confused on Tuesday. She was very delirious and everyone she knew that she had talked to was telling stories about her and their conversations with her. She had not gotten better. She just walked in and asked her mother where her fiance and niece were. For Fever, she did not take it but she was guessing it was around 101. Fever started that night of the vaccine on 15May2021. She asked her mother to feel her to see if she was hot and then stated she still had a fever, hadn't checked it but was probably like 100.5 or close to 101. She was treated with Ibuprofen and some Tylenol. She was surprised that Laryngitis had broken up today (unknown date). She was given Amoxicillin for dental implants that were prescribed by her dentist about a month and a half ago. She was prescribed 500mg capsules. She took 2 capsules yesterday and took 2 more capsules this morning. Her chest had seemed to clear up some. She thought that was working, she was not going to continue to take 1000 mg each time. She said the Amoxicillin was in a prescription bottle. She did not usually have bad asthma attacks but her asthma had gotten worse since she got the vaccine. Asthma symptoms had been worse the past 2 days in 2021. She had been very short of breath and can't catch her breath in 2021. She had not taken anything for the shortness of breath. She had just taken her regular medicine. The events did not require a visit to Emergency Room and Physician Office. She would have probably waited a few more days. The outcome of the events was unknown.

The police department, ambulance and the EMT they charged for that and then she had non-stop seizures they wouldn't stop and she took medication and they finally did stop. She did have seizures, they found out she had low blood sugar, but that's from a brain tumour and brain surgery she had. She had to be careful of her sugar content, she's not diabetic, she's opposite of diabetic. Her blood sugar was 92. Her blood pressure was high, it's usually low, really low. It was 138/72 or something and it's usually 92/56. She's not heavy, she's light, about 110 pounds. She's healthy, well in a healthy condition. She didn't have a thyroid, but she took medication.

She was putting tea bags under eyes. They were so swollen one of them was almost swollen shut and now she could hear her voice was really rough and raspy. She was pretty positive she's allergic to the vaccination. She didn't know what to do. She could not hold her grandbaby unless she had the vaccination that's the only reason she got one and now she's stuck and her eyes look terrible. She thought people with seizures with epilepsy she thought there should be a warning that it could cause seizures and to double up on medication. She was allergic to blue dye, that would do the same to her she didn't know if it had blue dye in it but she's allergic to that. She's also allergic to a lot of antibiotics.

She didn't normally sound raspy, she sounded normal and had a little nicer voice usually. She still had the headache with seizures. The seizure ended because of the medication, she still wouldn't have ended her seizures if she hadn't take the medication, they would have ended later. The seizures were gone because she's on her medicine. Now it was her eye and her voice. The headache started within a half hour its a precursor an aura to the seizure. It started at 20:45. It was like it made her seizure medicines stop working like it halted the seizure medicines. She couldn't think straight she called people and talked to people. She was not in her right mind before she had the seizures it was weird. It affected her brain. She also had sore claves. Her calves were very strong and muscled she worked out a lot. She had anxiety but its better since her divorce and one of the pills for the seizures was an anxiety pill too it did both they figured out. What happened after she got the shot was she got anxiety, she thought what the heck. She had a panic attack, she thought that was so weird that was on the road. When she got home she was okay. Her voice was feeling better this was her talking normally, it's getting better. Also this shot made her nose run and made her cough like she was in the middle of a grass field, which she's allergic to grass. She just felt like that was weird. She's just allergic to that blue dye and allergic to a lot of medicine. Events did not resulted in emergency room or physician office visit. Patient declined to go to emergency room when asked by ambulance. The ambulance offered to take her she said no thank you. Treatment received included lorazepam: she took something called lorazepam to stop the seizures. That's the drug they gave her at the hospital and she had some for non-stop seizures which she's had in the past she's had these pills just in case because she lived alone. She put it by her bed just in case she had to take it again. The Lorazepam was 0.5 mg tablets she took one. She only took it if it's a non-stop seizure. She's taken it 3 times maybe in the last 3.5 years. The action taken in response to the events for clonazepam, lamotrigine and gabapentin was unknown.

About two weeks after vaccine, I started to have respiratory symptoms. After two months of suffering from them, I figured out it's more like gastric reflux, GERD. Wheezing, coughing. Lots of mucous and fluid and some burning in my belly. I did a video visit with my respiratory doctor (an independent physician) in May, not sure of date. He did not believe it was respiratory. I recently saw him again on June 21 and he confirmed that it wasn't respiratory. A nutritionist and acupuncture doctor has helped me the most. I did see my primary care doctor today and she confirmed that I'm doing better. The nutritional changes I've made have helped me the most. I am about 85% better.

Woke up with cramp in right leg and I have been doing (Name) diet and that's not unusual and so I didn't think anything of it. It happened a few mornings, Thursday 17th, I stayed home from work because I had a really bad headache. Thursday evening, I had a scheduled massage - and he worked on it (the cramp in my leg) and it felt better. Friday morning, I woke up with a headache again and decided to stay home again and around noon my headache went away and I went to grab lunch with my family but while getting ready- I felt a constricting around my chest, hard to breath and pulse was really fast, too. That calmed down in a few minutes and I didn't think anything of it. I couldn't seem to catch my breath after that and so when we got home, I called nurse line. Advised to go to the ER -they thought it was a cardiac event. Found blood clots with the testing they did. Treated with blood thinners - IV drip with Heparin. Continuing to take blood thinners - they gave me Eliquis. They had me quit the birth control pills - So I had bleeding the next week - but all of it was normal. I'm still home from work - I still get really tired when I walk around for any period of time. I cannot bend over when my head is done. If I do that, my breathing gets really short and I have to sit down.

I really don't think this had anything to do with the vaccine because it started a couple weeks after my first vaccine. I didn't have any symptoms from the 2nd vaccine.

I've been having seizures and dyskinesia which is MS related. I've also had weakness and leg paralysis so that I have to use walker when I'm out and about and that's all come out since leaving hospital. I've been dealing with terrible fatigue, being winded, having no strength, weakness since leaving hospital on April 20 and it keeps getting worse. I'm seeing my PCP tomorrow 07/13/2021. A week ago I was seeing a hematologist that I got in touch with and she was trying to give me iron to help with anemia even though numbers aren't bad, but I'm so symptomatic since vaccine, but I'm allergic to iron. She tried something else on June 28 and I had an anaphylactic reaction and that was to deal with fatigue and symptoms of anemia. The seizures and Dyskinesia prompted my MS doctor to want me to get a new set of MRIs but because my crohn's is so bad I don't have time to do any of this. Today I was scheduled for July 29 to see where blood clots were formed in my legs from the vaccine. I've been experiencing intestinal hemorrhaging since being on blood thinners, it oozes out of my stoma because I have an ileostomy and that's a new symptom as well. That's probably why my anemia is so bad because I'm having the intestinal hemorrhaging. July 28 I have intestinal scoping.

At 12:00 pm the top of my head became very hot, my face felt hot and red with raised rash, my scalp became very itchy, my heart felt like it was beating out of my chest and I had pounding in both ears. My bilateral forearms began to itch and then developed hives. I notified my Supervisor that I was having a reaction. I was checked in to ER (where I am an RN). My blood pressure was elevated 180's systolic and my heart rate was 180BPM and short of breath. An IV was started and I was given Normal Saline Bolus, Solu-medrol 125MG and Benadryl 25MG IV. Prior to medications, my throat felt itchy and "tight" but resolved once medication given. The itching and hives continued to spread to my upper back, neck, bilateral feet and behind my bilateral knees. After approximately 1 1/2 hrs itching and hives continued then I was given Pepcid IV and Benadryl 25mg PO which after 40 minutes my itching and hives resolved. I was later discharged home with a prescription of Methylprednisolone 4MG dose pack. Symptoms resolved until approximately 1:30 am on 5/7/2021 when I awoke to pounding in my ears and the feeling once again my heart was beating out of my chest. My heart rate was 132BPM, I became hot and diaphoretic, short of breath. My scalp felt it was on fire and then I broke out in hives. I immediately took Prednisone, benadryl and pepcid. I took a cool shower, got dressed and drove to the hospital down the road and sat in the parking lot just in case my throat became itchy and tight (which it did not). The hives and itching began to resolve after an hour. My heart rate went back to 67BPM and shortness of breath resolved as well. I called Employee Health at hospital and made a report of symptoms.

The day after the vaccination I had redness around my whole shoulder and arm. On the third day I developed swelling of my shoulder and neck with horrible pain when I breathe. I went to urgent care and had an x-ray which was clear and they were treating me for myalgia with Motrin. I refused any narcotic pain medication or a Toradol shot. The pain never stopped on the 19th I went to Work Force Safety and reported it and I was examined by the nurse practitioner who saw all the swelling and the pain that I was in. That nurse practitioner told me if it wasn?t better in a few days to go to the emergency room to be examined. On January 23 , I developed swelling and pain went underneath my armpit it?s a burning pain that?s constant since the third day after my injection. My blood pressure was 153/104 and I was having nausea and not feeling well at all. On January 25 the pain and swelling were still there I went to work for a few hours and I went to the emergency room. They gave me lidocaine patch and Zofran for the nausea my blood pressure was 159/103 and I had an ultrasound to rule out a blood clot there was no blood clot but there was lymphadenopathy under my arm hurt and swelling and inflammation around the shoulder. The chest x-ray showed left pleural effusion / Pneumonia. My oxygen saturation was 93 and they wanted to admit me but I am a single mom with a new diabetic 14-year-old at home so they let me go home with a pulse oximeter and a prescription for doxycycline For 10 days. They called me the next day from the emergency room to follow up with a pulmonologist and cardiologist. On January 28 I saw the pulmonologist who did an ultrasound in his office and saw the fluid on my left lung. He said that most likely because the technique of the injection was so high in my shoulder that they probably had a nerve and I did have the swelling in the lymphadenopathy and all the pain and it hurt when I breathe so I wasn?t breathing correctly and I was splitting my arm against me and that?s how I probably developed plural effusion and pneumonia. I am following up with him on February 4. I still have shortness of breath and my oxygen saturation is 93. I am also on two inhalers that the pulmonologist ordered.

Thirty hours in, I had joint aches in my spine (mainly neck and low back); low grade fever; nauseated; headache. I felt like everything was it was swollen and tight - I couldn't wear my watch on my wrist. Almost like lymph system - nothing tight in my arm pits; felt like my pants were too tight in my groin - my body was swollen by my lymph nodes. Developed all kinds of gas in my stomach. I was having chest pains - 3 or 4 times a month before the vaccine - after the vaccine - I'm having the chest pains daily. That lasted for about 12 hours. Next day, 22nd, I developed diarrhea for 24 hours. 9 days later - I got numbness and tingling started radiating down my wrist into my fingers; lower calf to my feet and I had to go see my orthopedic surgeon - it was radiating down into my feet. He sent me to a podiatrist and he doesn't know. Those symptoms still haven't resolved. When I wake up - it's a low level and by night time my feet would get so numb and tingly it drove me crazy and then it went into my hands. Went to my doctor on March 2nd - my doctor thought I was having a histamine response in my body. I took an antihistamine - and half my symptoms went away. My esophagus is going into spasms - and I am trying to see a GI specialist. I was taking Benadryl last week but I got too tired. So I take 2 Benadryl at night now and I'm taking a Zyrtec (generic) at the day - it takes the edge off but doesn't resolve the symptoms entirely. Eleven day - I developed a floaty in my right eye - a black spot. I went to my eye doctor - it looks like my eye is healthy -but floaty is not going away. So talking on the phone, My throat is starting to swell up and feels like something back there and the more I talk pretty soon I start losing my voice (happening now on the phone). They added to my meds: Pepsid, Viscus lidocaine; Mylanta after every meal; Pantoprazole; Sucralfate; gave me another one but I haven't taken it yet: Hyoscyamine - for really bad spasms and I haven't had another really bad one since I went to ER (besides taking the antihistamines). I have seen 5 specialists all together.

Day of shot developed pain in entire right side(chest area), also acid reflux and nausea. That went away about 12 hours after the vaccine. Ten days after I developed a slight pain in right lateral side that progresses to constant pain in 2 places on right side including under right clavicle. I had pain upon taking in a deep breath. Saw MD after 4 days of these SXS. Performed labs, Chest x-ray and EKG. All were essentially normal except elevated WBC count. Have 2 COVID test which were both normal. Md said possibly some sort of inflammation and suggested taking anti-inflammatories which did not help much at all with SXS. After a few more days the SXS changed to constant chest pain(pressure), SOB upon exertion and pain behind knee. F/U with MD again and it was decided to wait a few more days. Upon suggestion from friend asked MD to perform D-Dimer lab test. The result was 4,400. My normal value should have been 550. Sent to ER. CT of chest, EKG and more labs performed. CT revealed large bilateral pulmonary embolisms in pulmonary arteries. Started on blood thinners. Ultrasound of left leg revealed large DVT. Sent home after 2 days on blood thinners. SXS stopped after a few days.

Since having the shot, I have noticed a great amount of swelling in my neck, even making it hard for me to breath at night when laying down to sleep. I also feel heart palpatations, even when laying down and it feels like irregular or racing heart rate, to the extent that I have to sit up and focus my mind on calming my heart rate. I also feel easily out of breath even in doing small activities. I have a lack of energy and I am sleeping a lot and still always feeling tired, I also have brain fog unless I drink a ton of coffee. I have no mental clarity for much of the day. I wonder if I will ever regain my full health prior to getting the shot. I also got really sick about 2 weeks after the shot with a really sore throat and chills and I didn't get better even when taking antibiotics. It's been a few weeks, and I am still not feeling normal.

I didn't experience shortness of breath or trouble breathing so I didn't inform anyone of the tightness there. 2-3 hours after vaccine, I started to notice some improvement in tightness but it didn't go away completely. I also had a stomach ache after returning home and throughout the evening experienced burping/belching, acid reflux type symptoms. About an hour or two after returning home, I had a very short time, maybe 5 minutes or so in which palm of right hand felt itchy and then it went away. Tightness was better on Sunday, not present most of the day on Monday, but later in the day on Monday and today, the right side of my neck feels slightly tight and different from the left side.

The patient underwent lab tests which included Hematology test on unknown date with unknown results; Immune markers on 11Mar2021 with unknown results. Clinical course: The patient received the vaccine on 19Feb2021at 10:00 AM and five minutes after, her throat started tightening and they put her in observation for another hour and then her throat felt fine and they let her go. Caller confirmed she was not referring to this occurrence as anaphylaxis. The anaphylactic reaction occurred days later. She mentioned from 19Feb2021-26Feb2021, her symptoms were progressing and then on 26Feb2021, it was full blown out; the actual anaphylaxis was 26Feb2021. Between this, she had severe double vision, severe rash from face all the way down to toes, one eye going cross eyed (right eye), left eye is still drooping. On 20Feb2021, she started having double vision that started with the sunlight and fluorescent lights and the next day she couldn't see anything without double vision, and her eye started going cross eyed. She still cannot see normally now. She is under eye doctor care for that too. The patient was treated with Epi-Pen into leg and then into the Emergency Room. She received 50 mgs of Benadryl and 125 mg of Solu-Medrol IM injection, but still have to give Epi because her throat was still closing. Her airway was intact and no nebulizer treatment needed. The patient reported also that her hands got very swollen and rash and itchy beyond itch. The patient reported that her weight at that point was 204, the she had been on Prednisone for a week, and her weight has gone up to 210 now. After her throat closed on the 26Feb2021, caller reports she gained 7 pounds while on it for one week. Caller stated she was also put on prednisone when she got diagnosed with asthma, reactive airway. She confirmed her throat stop closing immediately after the Epi. The patient was also treated with 25 mgs of Benadryl, Zyrtec, and Pepcid a day. Outcome for throat closing was improved with medication. Outcome for rash was not improved and she is taking medicine to counteract it; itch went away when she took the Zyrtec. Regarding right wrist pain, it increased dramatically after the vaccine. Caller reports it felt like a spiral fracture down the ulna and it started to ache on 20Feb2021, by the next day it hurt a 5 out of 10. By 22Feb2021, she was wearing a splint, it was 8 out of 10, and she felt like she fractured it and it was swollen on the ulnar side. Regarding eye disorder, she is now under the care of an eye doctor for her severe double vision, eye crossing, and eye drooping. The blurred eyes give bad balance and that kind of stuff. The cross eyedness gives her poor peripheral vision and also her depth perception has now been compromised. They say the glasses will fix it. As of 22Feb2021, a new pair of special lenses with prisms were ordered for her. The patient was not hospitalized.

Today after the vaccination she began developed symptoms that were reminiscent to her of that. Soon after receiving it, she said she was feeling sweaty, starting to become out of breath, and felt like she had swelling developing in her throat. She noticed that she was breathing with some difficulty and started to feel tingling in her face hands and feet.

She did not have loss of consciousness. She did not develop hives. She had nausea but no vomiting or diarrhea. She reports that with her previous anaphylactic reaction to bee stings, she did not develop hives or GI symptoms, but felt like she was puffy all over and had airway symptoms. Today she and her husband do not think that she started to have a change in her voice, but she did think that her throat was starting to swell. After arrival in the emergency department, she said it was starting to feel a little bit harder to breathe again and that she is developing some central chest pressure. Pt was seen in the ED approx 35 minutes after receiving the vaccine. She was diagnosed with a vaccine reaction to COVID 19 vaccine and discharged home on prednisone 50 mg daily

possible anaphylactic reaction vs. anxiety. HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: This is a 55-year-old brought by EMS from vaccine clinic after receiving the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. She reports having history of anaphylaxis to bee stings, most recently needing treatment about 2 summers ago. Today after the vaccination she began developed symptoms that were reminiscent to her of that. Soon after receiving it, she said she was feeling sweaty, starting to become out of breath, and felt like she had swelling developing in her throat. She noticed that she was breathing with some difficulty and started to feel tingling in her face hands and feet. She received an epinephrine intramuscular injection and soon after her symptoms started to improve. EMS responded within minutes and brought her to the emergency department for further evaluation. She did not have loss of consciousness. She did not develop hives. She had nausea but no vomiting or diarrhea. She reports that with her previous anaphylactic reaction to bee stings, she did not develop hives or GI symptoms, but felt like she was puffy all over and had airway symptoms. Today she and her husband do not think that she started to have a change in her voice, but she did think that her throat was starting to swell. After arrival in the emergency department, she said it was starting to feel a little bit harder to breathe again and that she is developing some central chest pressure. CHIEF COMPLAINT: POSSIBLE ALLERGIC REACTION Assessment/Plan DIAGNOSIS at time of disposition: 1. Vaccine reaction, initial encounter 2. Acute chest pain MEDICAL DECISION MAKING From the description of her symptoms it is unclear to me whether she truly had an anaphylactic reaction to the vaccination or whether she instead had an acute anxiety reaction associated with hyperventilating. The sense of tingling around the lips, hands, the along with her not having any change in the quality of her voice would tend to support this. However she notes that with previous bee sting systemic reactions she did not necessarily have a change in voice if she gave her epinephrine quickly enough and typically did not develop hives then either. To treat for the possibility anaphylaxis, I will also give her IV dexamethasone, IV diphenhydramine, IV famotidine. Given her complaint of some chest discomfort, we will check an EKG, troponin x2, chest x-ray. Given her history of diabetes and now having chest pain, I would have some degree of concern for ACS and will give her aspirin as we do the workup. Her most recent workup was July 1, 2019 when she had a nuclear medicine stress test, with normal results. She does seem to be hyperventilating and feels nervous, in addition we will give a dose of lorazepam. If her symptoms improve, and her troponin is negative, based on her story EKG believe her HEART score would be 2 due to underlying risk factors and that she would be appropriate for outpatient followup of the chest pain. From the reaction standpoint, if she is feeling well few hours later without any recurrence of symptoms, it would be reasonable to discharge her. At this point her x-ray and labs are pending and I will sign her over to the oncoming physician.

On 3/19/20 approx 2:30 pm Pfizer COVID vaccination. Felt fine, no obvious side effects On 3/20/21, late afternoon, the following adverse reactions occurred: Back pain & spasms Right knee swollen and sore Shoulder, clavicle, trapezius pain Shoulder/Clavicle Pain: Sharp pain started in left shoulder joint, then moved a little further in to settle underneath my clavicle. Pain exactly like after abdominal surgery when they insufflate you with Co2 and your body develops that horrible, sharp pain under your collar bone and in your shoulder joint as you off-gas. From 3/20 to 3/27, the shoulder joint/clavicle pain was mild to moderate, becoming more intense when I lay down. It kept moving up and down specific spots in my shoulder area, from the shoulder joint to the base of my neck and back again, not spread out through the whole shoulder area. Shoulder pain level 1-4, so nothing compared to the level 8 of my back. The shoulder pain was the least of my worries in comparison at the time. It seemed to be getting milder as my back pain subsided At 12:30 am on 3/28, I woke with excruciating stabbing pain in the middle of my left shoulder area, specifically halfway between my neck and my shoulder joint. Pain level 8. The pain gets worse when I inhale. The pain moves from the middle of my shoulder/clavicle area to the base of my neck, and back to the shoulder joint. It continues to travel up and down my shoulder area and makes it very hard to breathe as it?s so painful to inhale at 7:30 am on 3/28, the pain started snaking down the front of my chest towards my heart and up my neck into the left side of my head. I now have a mild pulsing headache on the left and sharp stabbing pain in my heart area and down the ribs on that side, as well as the sharp pain in the middle of my shoulder/trapezius area. The left side of my head feels heavy Using my left arm and lifting my head from the pillow intensifies the pain. Inhaling, Leaning forward to put on socks, leaning forward to clean the litter box, hiccuping, burping, going to the bathroom??..anything that requires abdominal pressure or pressure to the top of my body, like leaning over, intensifies the pain incredibly. . 9:30 3/28 ? pain has settled in mid clavicle region and has dropped to pain level 6 3/29 ? pain pretty much the same as on 3/28. I was able to get some sleep by sitting up in my recliner?.lying down increases the pressure in my shoulder/clavicle region, thus intensifying the pain incredibly so I can?t inhale without intense pain and can?t sleep. Cleaning the litter box, putting on shoes or socks, going #2, hiccuping, taking a deep breath?..all cause incredible sharp pain at mid clavicle?.level 8. Lying down brings the pain to the front of the clavicle, sitting upright or standing moves the pain more towards my trapezius. I want to make clear this is not a muscle pain?.I haven?t strained or sprained any muscle and this is not that. I?m not sure what this is?..possibly a nerve pain? Feels exactly like off-gassing from Co2 insufflation, only more intense. Something to do with my abdomen? 3/30 ? pain seems to be a little less intense. Still had to sleep with my upper body elevated last night, but I was able to sleep. 3/30 ? 10:15 pain is less?.I?m able to inhale at level 5 instead of 8. 3/31 ? Pain much less, level 3 overall and staying put at center clavicle 4/1 ? 10:15 Sudden, Sharp, stabbing pain moved from center clavicle to shoulder joint and then moved down my left side and over into my abdomen below my ribcage. Worse on left side, but reaching across mid abdomen and mildly into the right side. Level 6 11:15 pain in abdomen subsiding, shoulder joint pain level 3 4/2-4/7 ? clavicle/shoulder pain improved each day, fluctuating between pain level 1-3. 4/8 ? clavicle/shoulder pain has almost resolved itself. Pain level 0-1 Back Pain: On 3/20 - lower back sudden excruciating pain, radiated to right hip on Sunday, then switched to left hip on Monday and Tuesday. Also right groin painful. Pain level 7 Tuesday night 3-23 ? pain moved from lower back to mid back with bad spasms. Pain level 8. Fever 99.9. pain also in left groin & lower abdomen today. Weds morning 3-24 ? pain has lessened in mid back somewhat, but is much worse on right side center back. Still having spasms. Pain level 7, 8 when I engage back muscles at all. Leaning forward, sitting, standing, and wiping extremely painful. It?s slightly better when lying down or in anti-gravity chair. Fever 99.9. pain has also moved to under my ribs on right front and more into my abdominals. Thursday morning 3-25 ? pain has lessened somewhat overall, but has spread more fully across my mid back, so both sides of my mid back are painful. Sharp pain in right side isn?t as bad, but now I have a sharp pain snaking down from mid back toward lower along the right side spine. Fever has broken. Pain level 6-7. Groin and abdominal pain much less 3/25 ? Saw my Spine Dr. She agrees that this is an adverse reaction to the Covid vaccination. Prescribed muscle relaxers to help with spasms. Evening 3/25 ? pain horrible across my mid back, wrapping around my rib cage, snaking down along my spine. Pain Level 8 3/26 ? pain and spasms bad upon awaking, but began to subside mid morning. Pain level reduced from 8 to 5 over the course of the day. By evening, pain level reduced to 4 and stabbing pains almost gone when moving and breathing. 3/27 ? mid back, ribcage, groin and abdominal pain almost gone, pain level 3. Lumbar region pain my ?normal? 3-4 pain level. Lumbar pain improves with rest. By evening, all pain except lumbar down to level 1-2. Lumbar level 3 3/28 - mid back, ribcage, groin and abdominal pain almost gone, pain level 1-2. Lumbar region pain my ?normal? 3 pain level. Lumbar pain improves with rest. 3/29 ? shoulder/ clavicle/trap pain level 8 starting at 12:30 am Knee Pain: Right knee swelled up and painful Knee stays moderately swollen, stiff and painful throughout this ordeal from 3/20-3/28 so far. Pain level 3 My knee replacement recovery was going great prior to this. I had minimal swelling and pain until 3/20 3/30 ? knee still stiff, but not as swollen. Pain 3 3/31 ? 4/8 ? knee swelling and pain still present, but has been slowly improving each day. I?m continuing to do my knee rehab exercises and ride my recumbent bike.

Within 15 minutes I felt tightness in my chest and throat, 35 minutes after the vaccine I developed a metal taste in my mouth. Soon after I started getting a nasal drip and when I blew my nose I could smell metal. My head has felt "foggy" and dizzy ever since. It is now over 36 hours since the vaccine. I have been drinking plenty of water and woke up dehydrated, my mouth is dry and I have this awful taste. The metal taste is even worse and even tastes like chemically. It is very unpleasant and I can taste my food, but my coffee is tasting weird and the food is too. I still have headaches, slight nausea, but the worst, most unpleasant and worrisome condition is this metal/chemical taste and sensation in my mouth and nose. What is this???

Hello! I had my first dose of the Pfizer shot on Sunday, 4/18/21. Everything was fine. Then, this past Saturday, 4/24/21, six days later, I woke up with awful chills and aches. I went to be tested at the Clinic with the rapid test. The result was negative, but the NP said to quarantine and to get tested again in three days just to make sure. Later that day, my fever went up to almost 102. I had a dry cough throughout the day and some shortness of breath. I was sick until later that afternoon, when my symptoms dissipated after taking Tylenol. I was fine from then forward.. I quarantined and did the test yesterday through Medical Center. (They give both the rapid and the regular.) The rapid test result was "presumptive negative." Today, I got the results of the regular test,,and it was also negative. I'm very happy about this, but I wanted you to know, because I read that though it's rare, some people can have after effects of the shot almost a week after. (I had no immediate effects after the shot other than my arm was very sore.) I think this is what happened to me. I had no other symptoms Saturday other that the ones I described above. I wanted you to know for record-keeping purposes in case in you need the info. for COVID-19 research or other purposes. I'm fine now. Thanks!

I got first shot on Friday April 9. On Monday the 12th, I got small rash on lower left arm, NOT at the injection site, but below it. By Tuesday the rash spread all over my body and got much worse. I was having short episodes of breathlessness and feeling a bit dizzy, and on the 15th I went to ER because the rash was getting worse and was creeping towards my face. The rash was red, kind of looked like a million mosquito bites, caused some swelling, and very itchy in the first few days. I was very uncomfortable and unable to sleep well. I tried Benadryl before I went to ER but it made me overly tired. At the ER the doctor diagnosed me with allergic reaction to the shot. He prescribed a course of Prednisone to calm the rash. I had a very active rash for OVER two weeks between April 12 to the week of April 26, and there is still remnants of the rash today, which I hope do not reactivate at any time. I could figure out the timeframe of most active rash better by looking at my notes and doctors but that is a general summary.

EMS noted STE on ECG. STEMI alerted was activated. Patient was taken for emergent cardiac catheterization, which disclosed essentially normal coronary vessels. It was felt unlikely she had coronary vasospasm per interventional cardiology. Troponin continued to rise, to peak 10.8 prior to discharge. She underwent the above-noted CTA to rule out aortopathy, which was reassuring. TTE with normal LV size and function, hyperdynamic systolic function, no wall motion abnormalities, normal RV size and function, and with trivial pericardial effusion and no valvular disease. She was initially started on dual antiplatelet therapy post catheterization as well as UFH drip, though this was subsequently discontinued given increased clinical suspicion for myocarditis. She was started on colchicine and NSAIDs, with marked improvement to her chest discomfort. Given this, cardiology felt cMR not clearly indicated to assist with diagnosis. Per cardiology, plan to continue colchicine for 3 month course, plan to use only PRN NSAIDs rather than scheduled dosing.

Developed fatigue, cough, and shortness of breath 1 day after 2nd dose of vaccine. Started on antibiotics and steroids empirically prior to admission 02/15. Initial CT with diffuse centri-lobular tree and bud opacities. Infectious (including BAL) and autoimmune work-up without clear explanation for infiltrate. Underwent VATS wedge resection for tissue diagonsis. Post-op developed hypoxia requiring up to 10L O2 and worsening infiltrates on CT in a pattern consistent with organizing pneumonia (possibly drug reaction). Started empirically on steroids for concern for organizing PNA/hypersensitivity pneumonitis. Pathology returned with organizing pneumonia with increased eosinophils. Timing of onset of symptoms is concerning for a hypersensitivity reaction to the COVID vaccine. Symptoms are improving with steroids (started 02/26). Recovery to be determined but I am optimistic for a good recovery.

45 minutes after receiving the vaccine I felt like I was helping by getting my vaccine. After 45 minutes I started to get weird symptoms. I started to have a hot flushing sensation in my left chest and became mentally dissociated from the situation. I felt separated from the conversation and tried to touch my hands together and couldn't feel them it was like a part of me. I was still trying to function for days and the feeling of being unable to think continued. I remember muscle weakness and dizziness. It was hard to focus. I had body tremors and some nausea and fatigue, headaches, body aches. The dissociation came and went and I felt really wobbly. I tried driving on day four and was unable to function in traffic. I started having abdominal pain which has lasted for five weeks. The flushing was still there in my chest and started to move up into my neck. Extreme dizziness on day 6 and I slept for much of the day, brain fog. I reached out to many doctors for help but no one had advice. I felt really scared and overwhelmed. Day 8 I had severe nausea and abdominal pain muscle pain in legs and dizziness. I thought I wasn't going to wake up after sleeping on many days. My muscles hurt so bad that I thought it wouldn't end. I had many days of day long headaches and the flushing sensation with shortness of breath. All of my symptoms continued with different levels of severity for five weeks. On the fifth week I had a few days that I thought I was not going to live. I had a band of pain and abdominal fluid that felt hard to touch. I had no appetite and I still had severe muscle pain. I was still disoriented and dizzy. Over this time I reached out through telehealth and several medical professional that had no advice. My symptoms seemed to lessen from the five week point with more periods of feeling more normal. I have only felt a little normal for three weeks.

About 30 minutes after the injection, my throat felt tight like it was closing up. Then I started to have a funny taste, almost like metal in my mouth and my tongue started to fatter as though it was swelling. I never lost the ability to breath but felt a little constricted in my throat. The "puffy tongue side effect lasted for about 15 minutes and drinking water seemed to help. The throat constriction went away after about 5 minutes. We were already away from the vaccine site so we did not see any health professional for these symptoms but would have if they did not go away.

The vaccine site was Community Center being done by Paramedics and Fire Fighters. I received the vaccine and sat down in the chairs to wait the required 15 minutes. Within 2-3 minutes my face got very hot. I could feel the heat under my mask. Another minute or two, just below my knees to my toes started tingling. Another two minutes or so, I felt like my eyes were swelling. I took my glasses off and looked at my husband and asked if my eyes are swelling, he said, they sure are and called over one of the paramedics that were there. They directed me to a more private are and put me on a monitor and monitored my vital signs. My blood pressure which is well controlled on my meds (which I did take that morning) climbed and climbed to 200s/100s. My chest was tight and uncomfortable and getting more difficult to breath. They put and 02 mask on and gave me Benadryl IM. By that time the squad was there and took me to the local hospital ER. In the squad my tongue started to swell. At the hospital they gave me Solumedrol IV which took care of it all. The swelling quickly went away in my tongue and face, the chest pressure went away, and all the other little annoyances like the tingling. The hospital did a chest x-ray and bloodwork. I went home after 3-4 hours with a prescription for Prednisone 50 mg daily for 5 days. No further reactions after that.

I did not have a reaction to the vaccine per se, but developed symptoms of Covid 19 on December 30, 2020 and tested positive the following day. I had a known exposure to covid 19 several days after my shot (my son had it and we didn't know it yet). I think I had not yet had enough time to develop immunity. The vaccine safe person who called me said to report that on this website. Of interest, I was a bit of a long-hauler with persistent fatigue, inability to concentrate, sleeplessness, and shortness of breath despite not having even had a cough with my covid. I got my second shot on 1 March 2021. I had a pretty strong immune reaction (o.k., I might have taken to my bed for three days over it) but two weeks later, I noticed a sudden change in my long-haul symptoms. I have much improved and although I can't definitely tie it to the vaccine, there is a temporal relationship. Thank you for reading all of this.

her throat itches; she could not breath; her pressure raised to 230; throat started to close; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient's husband). A 56-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number and expiration date not reported) at the age of 56-year-old, via an unspecified route of administration on 07Mar2021 as single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. The patient's medical history and concomitant medications were not reported. The husband commented that both of them got the first dose of the Pfizer covid vaccine on 07Mar2021 and some minutes later, the patient started having a reaction that she had to be taken into the ER with an ambulance: her throat started to close, she could not breath and her pressure raised to 230. Until today, she has not fully recovered, and they have been getting in and out of the ER, in fact they just arrived home from there. Physicians only prescribed antiallergy medications and the patient was still having the same problem and her throat itches on an unspecified date. The physicians they have consulted have contradictive opinions about how she should do: one recommended her not to get the second dose while another recommended her to get started again on the series.

A 56-year-old female patient received bnt162b2 (BNT162B2 reported as PFIZER COVID 19 VACCINE), dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration in the right arm on 24Mar2021 (Lot Number: ER2613) as a single dose for to prevent COVID (covid-19 immunisation). Medical history included having blood clot from 2019 to Mar2021 which the patient stated a couple of weeks ago (Mar2021), she had an ultrascan in her leg and the blood clot was not there, but she is on medication. The patient has recovered completely from blood clot (not ongoing). Concomitant medication included warfarin (WARFARIN) to prevent from having blood clot ongoing since Jun2019. The patient previously took gabapentin for pain but had throat started closing, allergic reaction, coughing and was intubated until she was released from hospital; and albuterol [salbutamol] for dyspnoea but had nebulizer to open up her airways and prevent closing and did not work (drug ineffective). The reporter mentioned that the patient ended up in the ICU because of the COVID vaccine. As soon as the vaccine was administered within seconds, the patient experienced a reaction and was given an epi pen, another epi pen even an epinephrine drip and was sedated and intubated. The reporter mentioned that they gave the patient the first shot of epi pen and it did not work, and she was given a second one and a third one plus steroids. By the time the ambulance people arrived, they hooked the patient up to an IV and gave her additional epinephrine and administered another epinephrine. The ambulance guy told her; she does not need to keep up with them because they needed to go to the hospital ASAP because the patient is not getting better but getting worse. Once the patient got to hospital, she was intubated because her throat was closing. The reporter stated that the patient has allergies to begin with and this was worse than the first time she had to be intubated. The epi pens did not work, the patient was intubated and then had to be sedated. The patient was on Propofol in order to sedate her and later on in the evening was given Fentanyl to relax her then the epinephrine drip was removed at 6 pm on 24Mar2021. The epinephrine drip was started in the emergency room and the patient could not be moved to the intensive care unit until she was somewhat stable. The patient was moved to the intensive care unit and was there overnight and by the time next morning she was able to be extubated where they removed the tube from her around 9:30 to 10:00 25Mar2021. Of course, the patient was taken off Propofol, but she went through a lot and her legs are sore, throat is sore, and is coughing on 25Mar2021 because of the side effects from being intubated and that she went through a lot. The intensive care unit doctor said that the patient can no longer have the vaccine and she would only be 70% protected till whenever they are not sure how long the vaccine will last. The adverse events almost took the patient's life which made the reporter angry at that. The reporter is not sure what the contents in the vaccine that it in the other drugs and vaccines since there is something that is contained in all of them and the patient was not allowed to have any whether it is the Pfizer or Moderna and it is even up for discussion for even the flu shot because of the reaction and there does not want to be any chances and that everything should be proceeded with caution. The reporter wanted to know what is in the COVID 19 vaccine to see about what could have caused the allergic anaphylactic reaction. The reporter stated and the fact that the epi pen did not work, she was taken aback. The reporter added that the doctor had a hard time intubating because of her throat but they were able to intubate from the second time. The reporter stated that it is taking a while but her wife is recovering and feeling it is taking a while taking a little bit longer. The reporter also stated that they kept the patient in the intensive care unit overnight and after the tube was removed in the morning, by the late afternoon she was moved to a different floor to continue to be observed and the intensive care doctor said 2 days out her wife would be safe to go. The patient stood up but it was hard for her to walk on 25Mar2021 because it could have been from the epi pen, but she is not sure. The patient stated the side effect came out of the allergic reaction and it was on Thursday 25Mar2021. Patient stated the main trouble is her breathing, she is out of breath still and really sore throat on 25Mar2021. The patient stated that the leg sore is still ongoing and is about the same. It was mentioned that the throat sore was still ongoing but some days are worse and some days are better. The patient stated that when she has a problem trying to swallow a tablet and digest it and it gets stuck on Mar2021. It was stated that the cough was not going away. The cough comes and goes away. She will cough for five minutes constantly and then it disappears then she will fall asleep and wake up coughing. It's as if she is choking (Mar2021). When she is talking, she coughs more. With regards to the allergic anaphylactic reaction, the patient stated she is experiencing the aftereffects of the allergic reaction and being intubated like being out of breath. The patient stated that will come in time and that's what happens when she gets intubated. Her breathing was heavy and comes back fully with rest on Mar2021. This has taken a lot out of her. She was feeling tired which was still ongoing it is about the same but comes and goes on 25Mar2021. The patient is experiencing lingering side effects and the patient does not feel as if she has recovered completely. It was also mentioned that the patient was intubated on 24Mar2021 to 25Mar2021. It was reported that treatment of the patient included Epi Pen, Epinephrine Autoinjector USP 0.3 mg (Epinephrine injection manufacturer was Mylan) which the patient was given at least three injections (two in the right leg and 1 on the left) then received another in the ambulance (unknown site). Patient received an Epinephrine drip and it was like 0.1 mg all the way up until 6 pm (only on 24Mar2021). The epinephrine drip was started when patient was intubated at the hospital. It was given for patient's allergic reaction through IV. The patient's lungs were filling up with fluid so her airway was restricting her from breathing and to prevent damage of the lungs that is when the intubation came in. The patient also received Prednisone which the reporter does not recall when this medication was started it may have been after the epinephrine drip was removed but she is not sure if they started the prednisone after or if it was the same evening which the reporter kind of thinks it was. The reporter stated that the patient took Propofol 24Mar2021 to 25Mar2021 which was given through the patient's IV and was given to help her airways being intubated, they sedate their patients. The patient also received fentanyl which must have been added either right before Epinephrine drip was removed or after but reporter does not recall. Patient was given Fentanyl 24Mar2021 to 25Mar2021 through her IV. Patient received this medication to relax because sometimes it is like some patients tend to want to sit up and kind of hear you, hear what people are saying and to relax patient sometimes because they can get scared and not exactly sure what is going on. The events anaphylactic reaction, pulmonary oedema, throat constriction and breathing difficult. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included lung was checked from a CT scan was unknown results on 12Jun2019, D dimer test was elevated on an unspecified date, ultrascan in her leg (ultrasound scan) blood clot was not there on Mar2021 and weight was probably weighs 180 or her weight may be a little less like 175 on an unspecified date. The outcome of the events anaphylactic reaction and throat constriction were recovering, as for the events leg pain, throat sore, cough and tiredness were not recovered while the outcome of the other events was unknown.

Patient reported that three previous times after receiving season flu vaccine, she developed accelerated heartrate and shortness of breath, but that it had been four years since that last happened. We instructed to remain her for 30 minutes after the shot rather than 15. About 10 minutes after receiving the COVID injection, she developed increased hearth rate and shortness of breath. She reported she also felt nauseous. We removed her face mask and had her lie on her side on the floor. We called 911 and remained with her until the ambulance left. She looked less pale and was feeling somewhat better by the time the ambulance arrived, but Patient returned later in the morning, looking and feeling fine. She told us that the ER assessment was that it was not an allergic reaction to the vaccine, but rather something in the vaccine that triggers her increased heartrate. She told us that when this happens, it compounds her anxiety, and she attributes what happened to being as much a panic attack as a physical reaction. She also told us that due to her agoraphobia, she feels anxious in unfamiliar surroundings. She had never been to our pharmacy before.

My chest felt like something was squeezing it. I barely made it back to my house. I had to sit on my front steps. I managed to use my cell phone to call my husband, but I could only say on word answers ex. "drink" then "door". It took awhile after having a cold drink that I was able to tell my husband what happened. Later after resting I began to get really sharp pains in my chest on the right side.

My surgery has been canceled. My back surgeon mentioned something about my lymph nodes that they were swollen which is what he thought was water build up in my left side of my neck during an MRI he then did a CAT scan checking to see what that was and he mentioned my lymph nodes. I originally went for MRI because I had had several falls into surgeries in my neck and he was checking to see if anything collapsed and that's when he found through the CAT scan that my lymph node was enlarged.

anaphylaxis; headache with numbness; headache with numbness; blurred vision and nausea from headache; blurred vision and nausea from headache; has been trapping food since in her throat; had irritation in her throat; coughing; coughing; off balance; couldn't see straight; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 56-year-old female patient received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection, Lot Number: EN6207), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Left Arm on 18Mar2021 10:30 (at age of 56 years old) as single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. Relevant medical history included: Asthma, immune problems, upper respiratory stuff, all ongoing; Her Diagnosed allergies include iodine fish, Propofol, and preservatives, sleep apnea, had COVID in Jan2021, and had a cough (Jan2021) from that. There were no concomitant medications. The patient previously took iodine, propofol and had allergies. Patient took first dose on 18Mar for reason that patient has lost all allergies that cannot be detected by blood work. After first short she was told to wait an extra 15 mins not vitals taken she can leave a felt like a specimen unpaid but paying with life. Patient started coughing while everyone watched her so she said she better take Benadryl cause she doesn't wanna die. Patient left had off balance couldn't see straight. She was the one that had all side effects from vaccine as well as COVID signs. She had research medicine/food that cause her to have anaphylaxis. Patient found same ingredients in vaccine but food and drug said it ok. Patient was an experiment. She need to no from your board it is ok for me to take 2nd vaccine. Patient should be getting paid. Her doctor making it seem it up to her she gotta go out and get and epi pen she cant afford. In running out of gloves and mask. The patient experienced Anaphylaxis, has been trapping food since in her throat, headache with numbness, Cough, blurred vision and nausea from headache, all on 18Mar2021. Caller has been coordinating with the CDC by email. Since day one she had a bad reaction to the COVID vaccine. This has been going on a month now. The CDC advised her not to get the second shot. She has went back and forth with the doctor. She had anaphylaxis from the vaccine. Her throat closed. She had irritation in her throat. She has been trapping food since in her throat. This has been since the anaphylactic reaction. She has to chew her food as fine as possible. She tries not to eat that much. This is still the same. It hasn't improved or worsened. She has also had a headache with numbness that is pretty much 24 hours a day. This started right after. She really felt it the next day. She tried to take Tylenol for four days, three times a day, and nothing happened. It was not going away. Her doctor also put her on a migraine medication, but it didn't work either. The headache has worsened over time. No medication is helping, and the doctors are confused. The migraine medicine is not helping. Her pressure is going up and down. She is wondering if she needs an emergency echo to see what is going on. She is still having bad effects. No doctor knows what to do. She has been to a lung specialist. Her cough just keeps getting worse. The cough started to get worse after the vaccine. She had COVID in Jan2021, and had a cough from that, but the vaccine made it worse. It is a ruff cough. She is on cough suppressant medication. Caller did not have a prescribing doctor. She got it at the hospital. She figured that was the safest, and since she is a patient there they emailed her because she was eligible to get it. She is mostly calling because the doctors don't know how to help. She is about to pass out from this headache. She is even losing vision from the headache. She feels like she is going to have a heart attack before her time. They are trying to figure out why her head is hurting. They do not think it is a migraine. Her headache is a 9/11 or a 10/12. She feels like after the vaccine she has been chemically off balance. She wants to get her thyroid checked too. Mostly because her food is getting trapped in her throat. Her throat is irritated and hoarse. The headache has given her blurred vision, and a felling like she is going to throw up. She feels off balance from the blurred vision. Caller had difficulty seeing information on Tylenol and Nurtec. She asked her husband to help. They cannot read the lot on the Tylenol. She has been to so many specialists to try to find answers, and no one has a clue. She saw on Pfizer's paperwork that she needs to reach out to a immunologist. Her allergist had no clue. From the world trade centers falling she has ongoing issues from that. She has sleep apnea, allergies, asthma, etc. She spent 30 minutes being monitored at the hospital. She had started coughing. Her husband said she needed water. She always carries Benadryl with her. Finally she felt like she needed to take her Benadryl. It saved her. She knows the Benadryl probably won't work forever, but she cannot afford an epi Pen. Time of Onset (24 hours clock): right after vaccine (18Mar2021). All events require a visit to Physician Office. She didn't have to go the ER. She was lucky with the Benadryl.

Symptoms began 3 days after 2nd Pfizer vaccine. Heart palpitations, shortness of breath, extreme fatigue with mild exertion, nausea, brain fog. Went to see PCP when symptoms did not clear up in 1.5 weeks. PCP ran multiple lab tests, imaging, and EKG and can not determine the cause of symptoms. Symptoms have mildly improved but remain disabling. On good days I am at 50% capacity of baseline before symptoms began. PCP suggested symptoms could be due to stress/anxiety and recommended psychiatric consultation. Saw psychiatrist 3 times. The psychiatrist does not believe symptoms are related to any psychiatric issue.

A 56-years-old female patient received BNT162B2 (Formulation; Solution for injection; Batch/Lot Number: ER8734) via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 31Mar2021 as DOSE NUMBER UNKNOWN, SINGLE for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included ongoing Contact allergy to nickel (She can't wear custom jewelry because her skin breaks out immediately. In a few hours her skin breaks out at the site where she wears custom jewelry. The allergy to nickel has been a long time, since she was young. She has always had that when she tried to wear jewelry since she was a teenager), ongoing Partial lactase deficiency (She can't eat a lot of milk or dairy products. The lactase deficiency also definitely started when she was young since childhood), Antihypertensive and slows the heart rate from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing, Immune boost against viruses from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing. Concomitant medications included bisoprolol (BISOPROLOL) 5mg, in the morning taken for Antihypertensive and slows the heart rate, heart rate abnormal from an unspecified start date and ongoing; zinc (ZINC) 50mg, one in the morning and one in the afternoon taken for Immune boost against viruses from an unspecified start date and ongoing; acetylsalicylic acid (ASPIRIN PROTECT) 100mg, one every day taken for an unspecified indication, start and stop date were not reported. On 31 Mar2021 caller is reporting regarding side effects from the Pfizer Vaccine. She got it at the Center. She clarifies it is the covid vaccine. She has a sheet that says it was manufactured by Pfizer Biotech, it has a fact sheet, and it says emergency use authorization to prevent Covid-19 in those 16 and older. First, she had the injection into her left upper arm yesterday at around 1430 to 1500. Her appointment was around 1400 and by the time she got it, it was past 1400. Immediately after nothing happened. It happened mostly after she came back home within a half hour to an hour. Within 2 hours she had aches and pains in her whole body, something as if somebody had beaten her up. Her arm, her upper arm mostly, where she got the injection is stiff. It is very painful, and she has some redness around the injection site. She also has a rash that started around her belly and is now in different parts of her body. She also has muscle aches. She had a very strange feeling yesterday within 2 hours or after, she started to have headaches. It was more like a flushing in her head. It was as if her head was kind of not able to focus and with some pain like a headache. She also had nausea and vomited once. She took an antihistamine over the counter, something like Claritin, because she also felt a bit short of breath. She did taker her pulse ox and it was around 92-93 yesterday. Today it improved after taking Claritin. So today she still has the rash and her whole body is aching, she still has a headache, and her arm is really sore, and she can't move it. She asks to have that written down, she can't move her arm near the shoulder and it really aches. It is not like the injection, she didn't have it right away, it was within an hour or so, or within 2 or 3 hours she started having the aches and pains. Reporter prefers her main contact to be by email. Her phone is not reliable, and she is in and out of the place where she is living. She declines to give her mailing address right now. She would rather stick with email right now; it would probably be the best way to do that. She has a question. Does she have to be seen by a doctor. She, as a medical doctor, doesn't think she has to go to the emergency room. Her symptoms have improved, and she has no acute chest pain. Her pulse ox dipped yesterday, but today it is better. Her shortness of breath is definitely better today after she started the antihistamine. She asks if we by law have to say that she needs to go to the physician. The weather is bad where she is, and they are having snow there. All health facilities and doctors are overwhelmed right now with the Covid situation. She improved with the antihistamine and will try to make an appointment as soon as possible. She obviously took an anti-inflammatory. Her headache is still there. She will keep taking the anti-inflammatory and the antihistamine. She does have, if we want, the code number where they registered her at the vaccination center. She got the vaccine there in the (vaccination center name) in (location). She has to say this, she hasn't visited a general doctor in a long time and will have to call in in order to make an appointment with one. In the past she saw a doctor, her name was (Dr. name) with the (hospital name). She also has seen an ENT before. She doesn't have contact information for Dr. (name). We can probably pull her up, she used to practice in (location). She is not on a lot of medications recently. She has been on some medications because of Covid prophylaxis. She is on an antihypertensive, Zinc, and Concor for heart rate. The Concor is Bisoprolol. She took that before she had the vaccine. She has been on it for more than a year, almost 2 years or so. Her muscles literally feel as if they've been beaten up. It mostly started yesterday. She slept and wanted to rest. She started feeling the aches and pains 3-4 hours after she got the vaccine and then this morning it was really pronounced. Patient received treatment with Tylenol for the pain, an anti-inflammatory, and Claritin. All the medications that she takes will expire after 2023, way after 2021. She pays attention to all food and medication expiration dates. She is trying to see where the lot is on her Tylenol. She can't see very well. They have code that is like a purchase code but not a lot number. There is a barcode thing but because of the carton it is not very clear. It is hard to see the numbers. She is not going to be able to give product information for the Tylenol. She did take Claritin yesterday when she felt there was something going on with the pain and not breathing very well. She forgot this could have an anti-allergic affect. Claritin has an antihistamine effect. If she were to provide any information for any medications, she would have to get her magnifier. Right now, she is taking Bisoprolol 5mg in the morning. She is taking Aspirin Protect Bayer 100mg, she takes one every day. She is taking Zinc 50mg, one in the morning and one in the afternoon as an immune boost and against viruses. She takes Vitamin C 1000mg, she breaks it in half and takes one half in the morning and one half in the afternoon. Those are the main medications. The Bisoprolol is used as an antihypertensive and slows the heart rate. She started having fevers of more than 100.5. She also started having pains, generalized pains all over her body mostly on her left upper arm. This seems to have started the same day a few hours after the vaccine. Everything started a few hours after the vaccine. She came back and slept early; she really wasn't feeling well. When she woke up in the morning and still had the symptoms and the rash. Her aches improved a little after taking Tylenol and Aspirin. She believes she took Advil as well and anti-inflammatories. In the morning she woke up and was still having it. After she ate, she took another Tylenol. She also took Claritin. The shortness of breath also started yesterday but when she took Claritin it did improve in the morning. Her fever improved after the Tylenol. She still has nausea and an upset stomach. She vomited once yesterday. This morning she didn't vomit but is still not feeling like she needs to eat because of her upset stomach. She is nauseous like her whole stomach is not receptive. Even when drinking water, she can only take a few sips. Her pulse ox was dipping from 91-92 today. With the Claritin it might have improved. Because her pulse ox is better right now, she didn't go to the emergency room. She knows that anything below 94 should get medical attention in the emergency room or something. Right now, she is 94, 95, 96 range. Her throat is not clear, every so often she has to swallow saliva and kind of like clears her throat in order to free her situation. Her pulse ox right now is okay. Her upper arm hasn't improved. She can't put weight on her arm of lift anything. She has the rash on her legs and abdomen. It more not only at the site of the injection but around her skin in general. It is itching and feels like she needs to itch. It started yesterday. She noticed it mostly this morning. She wants to convince herself that it is getting better. Her headaches are not like regular headaches, it is more a feeling like her head is heavy and kind of flushed and with pain. It did improve a bit with Tylenol. Except for the medications she is taking, she does have a contact allergy to nickel. She can't wear costume jewelry because her skin breaks out immediately. In a few hours her skin breaks out at the site where she wears custom jewelry. She also has a partial lactase deficiency. She can't eat a lot of milk or dairy products. She can have small amounts like partial. The allergy to nickel has been a long time, since she was young. Right now, she is 56-57, she was born in 1964. She has always had that when she tried to wear jewelry since she was a teenager. The lactase deficiency also definitely started when she was young since childhood. She was born with these things; they were not acquired allergies. She has not had any tests recently. She did have some sort of testing done like a head CT and a chest X-ray; she believes it was definitely more than 2 years ago. She has had nothing recent. They were normal. Time the Vaccination Was Given Her appointment being 1400. It was a little past 1400, she wasn't looking at the hour. It was between 2 and 3 by the time she was seated, and they prepared. History of all previous immunization with the Pfizer vaccine considered as suspect: This was her first dose. She needed to wait a little, but they were advertising for the fact that they were not giving the Pfizer version anymore in the center. She figured the data on the Pfizer is the best, so she tried to get it before they changed the type of vaccine. She was thrilled by the results and effectiveness of the Pfizer vaccine. She will be trying to make an appointment. The weather is very bad there. Because she is in the medical field, she has been observing herself. If things get worse, she will go to the emergency room, otherwise she will try to make an appointment with the doctor. She has no transportation; she would have to take the bus or a taxi. She will have to see what to do. She asks if there are any pamphlets or forms that she should expect to get by mail or email. She says she would like to document these things as it is something she will have to follow up on and it is important to check. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included body temperature: 100.5 on 31Mar2021, head CT: normal 2 years ago. They were normal, oxygen saturation: around 92-93 on 31Mar2021 Yesterday, oxygen saturation: 91-92 on 01Apr2021 today, oxygen saturation: definitely okay on 01Apr2021 today, x-ray: normal 2 years ago.

Patient was concerned she might have an adverse reaction to the covid 19 vaccine due to her long list of allergies, and patient stated that the doctor told her to only get the Pfizer vaccine. We administered the Pfizer vaccine and as patient was waiting, she started noticing that she felt a pressure in her head around 10 minutes into her waiting period. Then the patient said the pressure spread to her ears. She began to feel woozy. Finally when the pressure hit her neck area, she accepted some benadryl liquid. We administered 10ml of benadryl generic around 12:10 pm. We had offered the patient ice packs numerous times, but she declined. However, the patient did accept a snack and something to drink. Then around 12:25 pm, the patient stated that the swelling/pressure in her neck was a little worse, so we decided to administer another 10ml of liquid benadryl generic. After about another 15-20 minutes, the patient said the swelling in the throat was no longer getting worse, and that it was, in fact, getting better. The patient stayed in the pharmacy area for a little over an hour.

I had these symptoms for about 2 weeks. On May 6, 2021 , I had chest pains that would not go away and went to the ER. They ran a bunch of tests, EKG, blood work, and X-ray. They were going to admit me to the hospital, I asked to be transferred to a different Hospital since my cardiologist is at that hospital. I was admitted to Hospital and did a left heart catherization they next day. I did an ECHO that measured my EF to be 30%. I was discharged on 5/7/2021 and to follow up with my cardiologist with a diagnosis with non-obstructive coronary artery disease. The symptoms continued to worsen and I did see my cardiologist at the end of May 26, 2021 who changed my medication from labetalol to carvedilol. On June 30, 2021, my doctor added Spironlactione to help decrease my blood pressure. On July 12, 2021, I did go back to the ER since I was having symptoms of lightheadness, dizziness, chest pressure, nausea and difficulty walking and balance issues.

Outcome of events exhausted, she can't breath, she got a very bad rash was unknown. She stated her doctors did not recommend she get the second dose. She went to get the vaccine against the doctors advice and they would not give it to her because of the way she was coughing. The vaccination provider said there was no way she would give it to her because she did not know what type of reaction she would have after hearing her coughing. She called VAERS and they told her that other people were reporting this with the vaccine but she was not sure which manufacturer. She is looking for data on people that have experienced this cough and whether they went for the second shot or if they waited for their symptoms to go away. She is trying to make an educated decision and wanted data on the people getting the second dose after having this symptoms. The doctor said she is 80% covered with one dose. The caller asked how long the first dose is effective for and how much does it protect you? And caller asked if you receive the vaccine do you get antibodies? Would you test positive on an antibody test? She wants to get an antibody test done to make sure she is protected. Response: Read from attached documents "If your body develops an immune response, which is the goal of vaccination, there is a possibility you may test positive on some antibody tests after receiving the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine." (CONS-can the vaccine cause a false positive COVID-19 test (v2.0). Additionally, "COVID-19 vaccination will help protect you by creating an antibody (immune system) response without having to experience sickness. CDC states that antibody testing is not recommended to assess for immunity to SARS-CoV-2 following COVID-19 vaccination because the clinical utility of post-vaccination testing has not been established. In addition, antibody tests currently authorized under an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) are not authorized for the assessment of immune response in vaccinated people." (CONS - Why did I get a negative antibody test after being fully vaccinated US. The caller stated, so "we don't have answers to anything, we do not recommend this and no one can give me answers. You are Pfizer who makes the vaccine so how can you refer me to the CDC (she was referred to the CDC regarding further questions about the CDC's recommendations) no one has answers." She reports the following in a historical context, when she takes Codeine she runs around like she's on speed, things act really weird to her, she's not normal. She also never gets the flu vaccine. NDC/Lot/Expiry for Codeine not known. She lives with her 80 year old mother and her mother is terrified of getting the Covid 19 vaccine because she thinks she might have an allergic reaction to the Covid 19 vaccine and die and there's nothing that will convince her mother otherwise. The caller thought, she'll get the Covid 19 vaccine to prove to her mother that it's fine. Since the caller has received the Covid 19 vaccine she's had a cough that is relentless. She coughed only three times yesterday, 29Apr2021 and only one time today so far. The cough starts and then turns into a deep cough and then it sounds like an asthma attack, like wheezing really bad. She went to the doctor and he told her it sounded like she had the Covid 19 virus. She hasn't gone anywhere so if she got the Covid 19 virus, she got it from her doctor's office. She had both the rapid and the PCR Covid 19 virus test. Her tests were negative. Two weeks later she had another set of Covid 19 virus tests, the rapid and the PCR as well as the Covid 19 antibody test. Her rapid and PCR tests were negative. She then went to an Ear, Nose, and Throat doctor because it's two weeks later and she's freaking out because she's supposed to get the second Covid 19 vaccine and what is she supposed to do. When it came to her asking for advice on whether to receive the second Covid 19 vaccine, no one was giving her an answer. Her primary care doctor was telling her she can't breath, but the Ear, Nose, and Throat doctor told her she was fine and she was also being seen by a pulmonologist. The pulmonologist scheduled her for a breathing test and that test was perfect. The pulmonologist told her she had above average lung capacity. Her regular doctor told her to go with her gut on whether she should get the second vaccine or not. The pulmonologist said with her reaction he would be on the cautious side because he's conservative. Her pulmonologist would not get the second Covid 19 vaccine because she doesn't know what the second vaccine is going to do to her, what kind of reaction she'll have. She also saw an allergist and the allergist wanted to put her on an Albuterol inhaler but it didn't help and only gave her a headache. NDC/Lot/Expiry for Albuterol not known. The one thing that did help was to take a Vick's container and put it under nose and that helps. If she's laying down and keeps the Vick's container near her, she can sleep and the Vick's keeps everything open. She wouldn't really cough. As far as getting the second Covid 19 vaccine, her allergist told her to do what the pulmonologist said to do and not get the second vaccine. Her regular doctor and the Ear, Nose, and Throat doctor told her to go with her gut on receiving the second Covid 19 vaccine. She went to the facility where she received her first Covid 19 vaccine and explained her story and told the staff she was scared. The caller started coughing during this interaction. The staff member looked at the caller and told her she will not give her the second Covid 19 vaccine because of the way she's coughing. She had not had the breathing test by the pulmonologist at this point in time. The breathing test was the very next day. She's called the CDC and her friends do call her special and that she's weird and should walk around in a bubble. Like, pot smoke, or marijauna smoke makes her get a massive headache and migraine. She's also allergic to nuts and apples. She asks, who in the world is allergic to apples? The CDC said they could not help her, the CDC suggested she file online with VAERS. When she contacted VAERS they asked if any of her doctor's reported her information. She filled out the link for VAERS and she's just looking for guidance. She wants to get the second Covid 19 vaccine but doesn't want to have this cough for the rest of her life. She's on her fifth week of not being able to work because of this cough. Only in the last two days has she been feeling a little better. Two days isn't long enough to let her know the cough is gone. VAERS told her yes, her cough is a side effect but what does she do now? VAERS can't guide her. She's not looking for medical advice, she's looking for data. What happened to the people who had her reaction? What happened to them? Can she be referred to someone who can help her? She's scared to get the second Covid 19 vaccine. She has GOOGLED looking for information until the cows come home. Her father is convinced it's all in her head. Out of the four doctor's she's seen, 2 of them are telling her to use her best judgement and 2 are telling her not to get it. The pulmonologist told her he had not seen enough cases like her to know for sure. She reports her arm was sore the night of the vaccine and she couldn't sleep on it. On Saturday, 27Mar2021 her arm was definitely more sore, by Sunday, 28Mar2021, her arm was moderately sore, her arm soreness was gone by Monday, 29Mar2021. She decided to get the Pfizer Covid 19 vaccine because it had less preservatives and she has reactions to preservatives. Her primary health care doctor is what she calls a "Doc in a Box". Since her COBRA health insurance ran out she's on Medicaid through a United Health Care Community plan. She had to switch doctors. Her new primary care doctor, (withheld) is in the new clinic. She thinks her last Covid 19 virus rapid, PCR and the antibody test was on 02Apr2021. She had another Covid 19 virus rapid and PCR test on 19Apr2021 she thinks. She isn't exactly sure of the date, she doesn't remember. She's not a big medicine person. She doesn't like taking a lot of medicine. The last vaccine she had was probably a Tetanus vaccine, however long ago that was. She's also allergic to Sulfa. She got a very bad rash. Her reaction was years ago. She does not have the NDC/Lot/Expiry. If she decides not to get her second Covid 19 vaccine, how long does the first Covid 19 vaccine last? When she got the first Covid 19 vaccine did she get Covid 19 antibodies? Would she show up as having Covid 19 antibodies? Physician Office visit yes for cough. Is there a Product Complaint: Yes Description of Product Complaint: also saw an allergist and the allergist wanted to put her on an Albuterol inhaler but it didn't help and only gave her a headache. NDC/Lot/Expiry for Albuterol not known. No follow-up attempts are needed; information about lot/batch number cannot be obtained.

Before her first shot she had taken paracetamol and hydrochloride prior. She also took both of those today (07Jan2021). But then she was reading through the paperwork and it says that a severe reaction includes tightening of the throat. She was not sure if what she had was truly a reaction or not. She did not have other allergies. She had many flu shots and never had any difficulty with those. She was a nurse, she wanted the second dose, but she was concerned about the throat tightening, and it getting worse with the second dose. She was unsure of seriousness. She figured that she would get aches and pains. Everyone else who got it said their arm hurt, but nothing else. She thought it was weird. She was just wired differently she guesses. The action taken in response to the events for paracetamol and hydrochloride was unknown. The outcome of events throat tightening, turned red was recovered on 17Dec2020. The outcome of event metallic taste in her mouth, nausea, diarrhea, and was pretty weak was recovered on 20Dec2020.

The patient experienced a warm feeling in her chest like tingling; kind of short of breath, it went away like she said it was just breath it was like for couple of minutes and then it went away and then she was just fine till it's been long here honestly about 3 or 4 days later; got shot in her right arm but left hand start swelling up first a little bit and then her left arm start swelling up and it's just and then that's the base and then her right hand start very, very mild swelling in her right hand. The hospital think there as some clot or something weird but she did not and then that started going down after that it just started going down and went away and never had swelling since then but this was going to long but this was something weird happened to her. She got chills, She got fatigue. She had increased heart rate after that it started getting worse. She had Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia, she had that always but it's been control. She walked 5 miles daily a day, she was in shape, she had lot since then, so it's been under control, she never had problem with it until after she got the shot, her heart rate was she had to add medication, she never have to add. She took metoprolol (Treatment) so she added that and she added more and that's thing get it under control and then she take herself back off because she felt like it was under control but she had GI problems since, now she was getting better now, still have some issue, did not feel good, off and on. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included blood test: good on 04Jan2021 (blood work to see if something was going on to her heart, because she had short breath, and everything was good), weight: 166 or 164, SARS Covid antibodies test IgM on 04Jan2021: positive. Treatment: Nurse stated, "No, not now, I had a heart-rate monitor, it's what for see what is my heart rate, to locate and see what's going on." Outcome of left hand start swelling up first a little bit and then her left arm start swelling up/ her right hand start very, very mild swelling in her right hand was recovered.; Sender's Comments: There is not a reasonable possibility that event heart rate increased is related to BNT162B2.

Patient received her vaccine about 11:50 AM and waited in the parking lot (because she is under quarantine and not allowed to enter the facility) for the appropriate 15 minutes. Within about 10 minutes she began experiencing shortness of breath, throat felt restricted and severe nausea. Myself, another pharmacist, and several members of the staff met them in the parking lot and assessed her condition. Because of her symptoms, we determined it was appropriate to go ahead and administer the EpiPen 0.3mg and call 911 at that time. About 10 minutes later we gave her a 25mg oral dose of Benadryl while we waited on the ambulance to arrive. The ambulance arrived within the next 10 minutes and by then the patient stated she was feeling much better. The EMT examined her and declined any further medical assistance. I called the patient at her home 2 hours later and she said she had some light itching and dizziness. I told her the dizziness could be due to the after-effects of the EpiPen but if it worsened or there were any other signs of an allergic reaction to report to the ER immediately or call 911. This may have been more of an anxiety related reaction due to there being no signs of swelling around the lips or mouth, but we decided it would be best to be overly cautious in this situation.

The patient had reported to the site for her second shot of COVID. During her assessment she did not mention any adverse reactions with the first shot. She did mention a hx of pseudoseizures during blood draws. She mentioned that her husband was waiting in the paring lot for her in case she had any reactions after her second shot, and that she would know during the first 15 minutes if she would have one or not. After receiving her vaccination, the patient reported to the observation area. The nurse in the observation area had checked on her, and in response the patient mentioned that her arm felt tingly. The nurse asked if this happened during her first shot, and she said yes. The patient then stated that she felt shaky. The nurse signaled for the medics to assess her further. The medics transferred as a two assist, as the patient was unable to support her own weight. The patient was then brought to a private area, and her husband was called by one of the nurses to come into the site per the patients request because he knew what to do for her when she had pseudoseizures. Medics maintained the patients safety throughout the event. As the husband approached the entrance of the vaccine site, he was escorted to the private area where his wife was. Upon reaching his wife, the patient began to shake and breathing hard. The husband stated that she hadn't had any of these pseudoseizures in awhile and that it must have been from the shot. The medics advised bringing her to the hospital at that time for further evaluation and support, and the husband agreed.

breathing out; cheeks, lips, and mouth started quivering/trembling; cheeks, mouth and lips started quivering and twitching; swelling sensation on her left side of her face; left cheek area felt swollen and tingly; pressure around the eye sockets; Could this be a sign of Bell's Palsy, and is it likely that she develop Bell's Palsy?; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (reporting for herself). A 57-years-old female patient received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 MRNA VACCINE, Solution for injection, Lot Number: ER8734, expiry date not reported), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in left arm on 30Mar2021 14:00 at a single dose for covid-19 immunization. Medical history included has back issues, but nothing serious probably for about 7 years and patient stated that she had a Pilates injury and after that her back has never been the same; and patient stated that she was pretty healthy, adding that she was allergic to sulfa, cow's milk, wheat, and almond. Family medical history relevant to events reported included mom has osteoporosis, and severe dry eye syndrome. The patient's concomitant medications were reported as she doesn't take any regular medicines but she does take regular supplements and herbs and stated that she was very lucky. Patient stated that Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine was the he one she trusted the most and she doesn't want to die from COVID if she gets it. Patient received her dose in her left arm, at the time of administration, on 30Mar2021 14:00, she was breathing out, then her "cheeks, lips, and mouth started quivering/trembling and it was definitely noticeable". Patient further stated that while it was being administered her cheeks, mouth and lips started quivering and twitching. She also reported that immediately afterward (30Mar2021), she experienced a swelling sensation on her left side of her face, "kind of how it feels when you have novocaine, but no visible signs of swelling or drooping". Her left cheek area felt swollen and tingly. She stated that it felt swollen but it didn't look swollen, like when you go to the dentist. She also experienced pressure around the eye sockets. She added that both areas under eye sockets felt a little bit weird, tight or something but not like a pain, hard to describe. All of these symptoms resolved within a few hours, and 24 hours later she's "pretty much back to normal". The pressure around eye socket, lasted for a few hours; while trembling and quivering only happened when the shot was being administered, and 24 hours later, she was pretty much back to normal. Patient asked if this has this been reported before and if she should she get her second dose. Patient stated if this could this be a sign of Bell's Palsy, and was it likely that she develop Bell's Palsy (30Mar2021). Patient stated that all her family have all received their doses and no one had this kind of reaction. She wanted to take the second vaccine, just doesn't want to have a stroke or heart attack or anything like that. She stated that all of her events are completely gone except she still has a little bit of swollen feeling left in her cheek on a scale of 1-5 with 5 being the worst, she would say it is a 1, its pretty much gone, the swollen feeling. She stated that provider was aware of the events because she called and told her yesterday. Her family got their vaccines either moderna or Pfizer and have had no issues, other than typical ones such as forearm, a little bit of nausea, or fever but nothing like what the caller has experienced. She was the only one in her family that has had this issue. She did not have any kind of rash, no fever nausea or headache, and stated it was just like getting her flu shot. The patient did not require emergency room and physician office visit. The event swelling sensation on her left side of her face was recovering. The outcome of the other events reported was recovered on 31Mar2021.

We knew she has allergy problem. We went to an allergy asthma specialist to check whether she would have severe allergic reactions. They used Miralax to test potential reactions and the test went smoothly. They advised to take the vaccine. When she had first vaccine jab, she had allergic reactions, itching, sneezing and breathing problems. We introduced two 25 mg Benadryl. There was a medical team on site and they intervened from the beginning. checking her pulse, blood pressure and lungs. They were very helpful and after 30-45 minutes she was back to normal. We didn't go to hospital. After three weeks, we went for the second shot and informed medical staff what happened during the first shot of the vaccine. They said this level of reaction is OK. If I had reviewed this page in detail, I would advise her not to take the shot. Anyways, she received one Benadryl 25 mg before the second shot. This time the reaction was more severe but medical team on site supported us and she received 3 more Benadryl pills. Everything went back to normal. Our problem started after 2 weeks. She started having allergic reactions to food that has become steadily more severe. We were not ended in a hospital but after a few interactions with our provider they brought forward our office call to tomorrow. Food from cooked meals such as meatballs to chicken wings to cheese, banana, apple, and strawberries. She was not allergic to none of these food.

Unusual bouts of shortness of breath lasting between 5 minutes and one hour. Tightness in the chest. Typically, before being vaccinated, I only used my rescue inhaler a few times a month, but I?ve had to use it four times a day since the symptoms started after I received the second dose of the covid vaccine. Three days ago I even went to immediate care to get tested for Covid, got an x-ray of my lungs and an EKG, but all the results were normal. My oxygen level is 98, but the bouts of shortness of breath and tightness in the chest continue to occur a few times a day, and during those episodes i feel like I cannot get a good breath even though my oxygen level remains high. Between these bouts, I feel fine. The doctors that met with me in the immediate care clinic thought this is likely a reaction to the Pfizer covid 19 vaccine, since all the tests came back normal. I have and echocardiogram and a chest CT scheduled in early May, but I will try to get these tests sooner. I do not have the typical side effects of the vaccine, such as fever, body aches, headache or nausea. I do not have rashes or swelling of lymph nodes. Episodes of shortness of breath that are sometimes accompanied by tightness in my chest are my only symptoms. I have had COPD and asthma for decades, and these bouts feel different to me. My rescue inhaler does not always work when one of these episodes happens. I am not having difficulty walking or climbing stairs, except during one of these attacks. On the average i experience between two to four of these episodes per day.

I had a sore arm the first two days which is normal. But on day 4, I started with a very bad sore throat and then had difficulty breathing. and couldn't stop coughing. When I was a child I used to get asthma, it has been 30 years since I have had asthma. I went to urgent care and they tested for strep throat and Covid 19. I tested negative for both. A week later I called urgent care because I could not stop coughing and was having difficulty breathing. They prescribed a very low dose of Prednisone for 6 days. That did not help so I finally went to my asthma and allergy doctor. He prescribed the correct dose of Prednisone which I am now on day 3 taking. As well as an Inhaler which helps as well and a gel tablet to help with cough. I feel like I am finally on the rode to recovery but I am nervous about taking a 2nd Pfizer Vaccine. My doctor also told me I should not take the 2nd Vaccine until 10 days after I am finished with Prednisone. That will be passed the 42 day recommended time frame to get the 2nd Vaccine. I don't know if the vaccine caused these breathing problems but I do know that I was 100% healthy and hadn't had breathing difficulty for 30 years. That is why I think it may be possible that the vaccine triggered this. I felt it important to report.

Patient is a 57 year old woman works as a cleaner with PMHx morbid obesity, HTN (on amlodipine, metoprolol, triamterene-HCTZ), CKD3 (baseline Cr 1.1-1.2) who presented to the ED on 5/28 with worsening shortness of breath, cough with yellow sputum, fatigue, and weakness, found to be COVID-19 positive. She was subsequently admitted to the MICU for acute hypoxic respiratory failure. At baseline, she is independent in all ADLs and works as a cleaner at an office building. She got the first dose of the pfizer COVID vaccine series 5/10, scheduled for second dose 6/2. She lives with her husband and nephew in a house with additional family members who live downstairs. She says she only really goes to work and always wears a mask while there. Her daughter (lives downstairs) helps with grocery shopping. No recent travel or sick contacts that she is aware of. She was in her usual state of health until 5/22 when she said she started to feel poorly. She had increasing shortness of breath over the next few days with worsening fatigue and cough to the extent that she was considering calling off from work. She continued to feel poorly and decided it was time to go to the ED on Friday, 5/28. Today, she says she is feeling better and is less short of breath. She still has coughing that is occasionally productive for clear sputum. No fevers, chills, lightheadedness/dizziness, chest pain, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea. Her appetite is improved, and she is eating and drinking better today. Patient is a 57 year old female with PMHx obesity, HTN, CKD3 who presented to the ED with shortness of breath, cough, fatigue, found to have COVID-19. In the ED, she was hypoxic requiring increasing amounts of oxygen, ultimately with 40% FiO2 via Ventimask and HFNC when admitted to the MICU. CT chest with GGO/patchy consolidation in posterior lung areas and bases as is typically seen with COVID-19 infection. She has been started on remdesivir and dexamethasone and is now requiring HFNC for oxygen supplementation. Likely her single dose of vaccine has helped to lessen her disease severity. She meets criteria for addition of tocilizumab. Recommendations: - Continue dexamethasone and remdesivir - Can add tocilizumab - Health care maintenance: Screened for HIV 2009, HCV 2018, HBV 2018. Last TDAP 2015. I saw and examined the patient. I strongly agree with the resident/fellow's findings and plan of care. Patient with risk factors for severe Covid including obesity underlying kidney disease and hypertension presents with fever fatigue malaise and infiltrates on chest CT a little over 2 weeks after initial mRNA vaccination Denies any anosmia Agree with current treatment plan including dexamethasone and 5 days of remdesivir duction and maintenance and okay for tocilizumab as she is less than 24 hours into the ICU Other health maintenance up-to-date HIV negative remote hepatitis negative I will ask lab for cycle threshold out of curiosity as she has been vaccinated which likely has mitigated severe disease Explained to patient in detail and questions answered.

4 minutes after receiving the first Pfizer vaccine shot, I felt a wave of tingling heat pass down through my body. My only pain the first day or so was a sore arm and shoulder. Within 2 days, I noticed increasing joint pain, foggy brain, and mild headaches. I also noticed a circular rash on my vaccinated arm, not at the injection site. Symptoms increased. By day 6 the joint pain was unbearable. I was treated with doxycline for potential Lyme, though I tested negative. I also took Ibuprofren for the pain for a few days. Since then, the symptoms have continually increased, and have restricted my activities. After the first 2 weeks, I could still "loosen up" all the joints, which popped loudly - even toes and fingers, but especially ankles, knees, hips, shoulders and upper spine and neck. Then followed a month of more constant pain, and numbness and tingling in my right hand and across upper back. Headaches and upper back pain kept increasing. Sleep affected, with joint pain beginning each afternoon 4-5 p.m., climaxing around 3-4 a.m. 5/27, 2 months after the Pfizer vaccine shot, the right side of my head suddenly went numb. Vision and hearing impaired in the right side also. At the periphery of the numbness, intense itching, that slowly spread from the epicenter of the numbness. A drooping feeling in the right cheek, jaw pain. Nausea. Numbness slowly abated after 2 hours. By the next morning, the right side of my face itched, one small spot at a time. Itching remains in spots all over my body, 2 days later. 7/18 - symptoms are still increasing in number and strength- numbness on the tip of my tongue and lower lip. Jaw pain and metallic taste in my mouth, extreme neck/shoulder pain, foggy brain, internal tingling and electrical-feeling vibration in muscles, heart palpitations, high blood pressure, popping joints, weakness, shortness of breath. These sensations diminish in the morning, then increase as each day goes on, and are very distracting and painful by each evening. I am unable to work a full day, or exercise as I used to before the vaccine.

Follow up report: Since I had the tightening in my chest that started everything in my chest on the 13th: That tightening in my chest now comes on much quicker. I have had to eliminate fragrances in my home (the ones I use to be okay with). That's bringing on asthma flares - more than usual I am getting more migraines - Would normally get 1 migraine every other month and now I'm getting one or two a week. I've called the nurses through med visits at clinic. Increased use of my inhaler. Less time outdoors. And more missed days from work due to the asthma but mostly from the migraines. I also had an Urgent Care visit - Toradol injection - for a headache that wasn't a migraine. It was a stabbing pain on the top of my head - a headache which I have never had before. The injection helped to resolve. I had a slight headache of that sort again three days ago, but it was nothing like it had been the first time. I just rested that evening (it came on at end of my workday) and it went away.

The next day after my second dose, I woke up at 6:00 am to start work (working from Home) and I realized I was feeling feverish. I put on the heater but it did not help, I decided to call my boss at work to report sick and that was when I noticed I could not put words together. I was stuttering and shivering and my words were incoherent so my boss told me to either take Tylenol and go to bed or call 911. I took Tylenol PM and covered myself and went to sleep. I woke up at 4:20 pm and noticed I felt better and even sweating. I put off the heater and everything seemed fine. Then when I went to bed that night, I realized I was having shortness of breath and palpitations, I could hear my heartbeat in my chest. I propped up pillows and went to sleep feeling very uncomfortable. The next day it continued but I thought it will pass just like what happed the previous day. This continued on and off for some time but I still hoped it will pass until I decided to let my primary care physician know. She did an EKG and confirmed something was not right and referred me to a Cardiologist whom I'm yet to see.

And when he came, I started hyperventilating because I was scared. And he calmed me down and rub my back and everything, and it went away. But it scared me. But the shaking lasted probably all through night maybe till 3 in the morning because I tried not to take anything and I probably took 2 Advil.

And it's weird, in morning I tasted the food, it tasted funny, like not the same but then at the end of the day I could taste food like normally.

Epipen was administered in the right leg with no relief. Patient continued to complain of troubles breathing and vomiting. A second epipen was administered in the patients right arm again with no relief. A few minutes later patient was given racemic epinephrine through the oxygen mask.

Within 2 or 3 minutes my left arm was itching, within 10 minutes my head, chest and other arm were itching. I got lightheaded and for an instant felt like I was going to black out but didn't, in 15 mins my entire body was itching. I was given 1 Benedryl capsule orally and told to wait 15 more mins. The itching kept spreading, I started feeling like I was going into an asthma attack. They had me wait 15 more mins. It seemed to stop getting worse as quickly. They gave me another Benedryl and I left since I did have an Epi-pen with me. I got home and took another Benedryl about an hour later and about every 6 hours. I got up the next morning and felt horrible and was still itching so took more Benedryl. Tuesday night it felt like it was getting a little better but felt like I was having a slight asthma attack but my inhaler wasn't helping. On Friday I went to my family doctor and was put on a short dose of Prednisone, 20 mg twice a day for 5 days. It did help. Since I've gotten the shot, when I eat it's like my stomach bloats up and diarrhea and generally don't feel like myself. I was really tired until I got on the Prednisone. Each day I feel more like myself but not back to 100% yet. I started taking my Brio again to see if it would help.

As stated in #11 above, I had just been recovering from something really bad I got hit with in January. The vaccination seemed to "reactivate" whatever it was, as all the same symptoms started back up that night except for the scalp pain. Gastric distress wasn't quite as bad but definitely present. Breathing definitely compromised, started back up using multiple OTC meds to get airways open. Breathing continued to get bad for approx 3-4 days, as did gastric issues. Started getting better on 5th day, then by 7th day doing a lot better.

allergic reaction to the first dose; Felt like her throat was constricting; Very flustered while driving home, somehow missed her exit; face is swollen; fast heartbeat; heart racing really fast; This is a spontaneous repot from a contactable consumer (patient). A 58-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number: EN6199), intramuscular in the muscle of upper left arm (deltoid left) on 03Mar2021 17:15 at a single dose for COVID-19 immunization. The vaccine was administered at a pharmacy, not a facility. No other vaccines were administered on same date of BNT162B2. The patient did not receive any other vaccines within 4 weeks prior to receiving BNT162B2. Medical history included hormone replacement therapy, high blood pressure, and "very sick she guessed from a cold and had asthma" on 2011 (from 10 years prior to the report; this was the only time she had asthma, and her physician said her asthma can come on because of being sick). The patient stated that she generally has higher blood pressure than she would like, but she is otherwise very healthy, and never had an allergic reaction to anything. Family history relevant to the adverse events was none. Concomitant medications included hydrochlorothiazide (HYDROCHLOROTHIAZIDE) for high blood pressure, valacyclovir (VALACYCLOVIR), rosuvastatin (ROSUVASTATIN), omega-3 nos (OMEGA-3 NOS, capsule), estrogen (ESTROGEN) for Hormone replacement therapy, progesterone (PROGESTERONE, 100 mg capsule) for Hormone replacement therapy, all were from unspecified date and ongoing. It was reported that patient gets her flu shot every year and never had an adverse reaction. The patient reported that she had an allergic reaction to the first dose of PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE she received last Wednesday (03Mar2021) after an hour after she received it (18:45) while driving. She mentioned that she saw on the package insert what a severe allergic reaction would include. She experienced swelling of the face and a fast heartbeat but no difficulty of breathing on 03Mar2021. The patient further explained that she had her first dose of the PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE on 03Mar2021 around 17:15 at a pharmacy. She left the pharmacy around 17:30. While she was driving home, she started to feel her heart racing really fast and felt like her throat was constricting within about 30 minutes of being administered the vaccine, by around 17:45. She was very flustered while driving home which is usually about 30 minute drive; but somehow she missed her exit and it was rush hour so it was about 18:15 when she got home. When she got home her husband asked her if she had been crying because he said her face looked weird. She told him he thinks her face is swollen. All of these events lasted maybe 1-2 more hours or less after she got home around 18:15, maybe a few hours before she recovered completely. She was expecting soreness and pain from the PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE but was not expecting the fast heartrate or swelling. She was reading through the information she got from the pharmacy for the PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE because she was a little concerned about getting the second dose due to these events. She has never had an allergic reaction to anything before and wondered if she should go to a hospital for her second dose of the PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE in case she has these events again, or a worse reaction. She asked about these events and dosing recommendations for the Pfizer. The reported adverse events did not require a visit to the emergency room or physician office. The patient was not hospitalized. Outcome of the events was recovered on 03Mar2021.

Monday, April 5, 2021 Thank you for this opportunity to share my experience. Healthy, no underlying conditions, active, On Saturday, March 27th at around noon, I had my 2nd Pfizer vaccine, administered in my right arm at the The injection was painless, I had zero symptoms initially following the injection and none the rest of that day. On Sunday, upon waking, my arm was uncomfortable but not painful. No symptoms on Sunday. On Monday, upon waking, my arm was more uncomfortable, I felt a little off; minor headache, minor light headed feeling, so I took 2 Tylenol. On Tuesday, upon waking, my arm was very painful at the injection site. It was difficult to raise my arm above my shoulder. I did not take any Tylenol although I still felt a little off. I massaged the injection site. We have a brand new 2021 hot tub that we use daily so I got in and positioned my right arm injection site on a bubbly jet to massage the area. It helped alleviate the severe pain and muscle stiffness. I had an English muffin, 1 poached egg and banana, I showered, got dressed and my husband and I went to the bank and to store. While in store, around 12:30 ? 1:00 PM, I began to feel light headed, very hot; not a fever hot, just very temperature hot. I told my husband I needed to leave NOW. He got me a cold water and we left. Upon arriving home ? say 20 minutes later, I was very light headed and nauseous. I went directly to bed to lie down. By 2:00 PM, my nausea was extreme as I laid in bed. I knew I would feel better if I could throw up, but I also knew I would have to make my self do it because it wasn?t happening on it?s own. I went to the bathroom and began to put my finger near my mouth and that?s all it took and I violently vomited 3 times. The vomit was liquidy, and old blood red. Remember, for breakfast I had had a dry English muffin, poached egg and banana. NOTHING red! I screamed for my husband who came in and was shocked to see the color and volume of vomit. He helped to clean me up and help me back to bed, where I immediately returned to the bathroom with severe diarrhea?the same old blood red color. Again, he helped to clean me up and help me to lie down. He got me cool water which I sipped. Within an hour, I rushed back to the bathroom and VIOLENTLY threw up again. Severe convulsions, unable to breath in between each convulsion. Old blood red, liquid, and to make matters even worse, the same color liquidy diarrhea. This went on for another 20 minutes. My husband was with me the entire time as the extreme convulsions contorted me and I could not keep aim to the toilet. I thought I had internal bleeding and was dying! I have never been this sick!!! Again, he cleaned me up, helped me back to bed where I was exhausted. He encouraged me to sip cool water which I did. On Wednesday morning upon waking, I was less nauseous. My husband urged me to try a dry English muffin (my normal morning routine). I was able to eat a few bites and keep them down. I showered to clean myself up and that did me in. I made it to the couch for the day. Sipping water and trying to complete the dry English muffin. On Wednesday I did not have a bowel movement. On Thursday morning upon waking, I was less nauseous and was able to drink a cup of tea and finish a dry English muffin. On Thursday I did not have a bowel movement. On Friday morning upon waking, I was not nauseous. I was able to drink a cup of tea and finish a dry English muffin and 1 poached egg. On Friday I did not have a bowel movement. On Saturday, now 1 week following the injection, I was better. Able to shower, able to eat, able to get out of the house. I had a small bowel movement that was the same dark color but somewhat in tact. On Sunday, Easter, I felt really good. Ate breakfast, lunch and dinner. Had a better bowel movement; not dark but ?my? normal color and condition. My theory (and I am not a scientist or medical person in ANY way!!!). When my arm was SO painful at the injection site and I got in the hot tub and placed my arm on a bubbly jet, it?s like I released the full burst of vaccine ? like a bolus ? into my system, rather than letting the muscle spasm release allowing the vaccine to gently circulate through my body. In July and I can assure you that in my all of my years of owning this body, I have NEVER experienced any flu or sickness with this severe or this violent convulsing vomiting and NEVER experienced the color of the contents!!!! My husband, with no underlying conditions, has also had both of his shots. He had no side effects. Yeah!! Since this experience, I have not been able to drink coffee or wine, of which both were a regular part of my diet. Now on a lighter note, less coffee and wine isn?t a bad thing, however since this episode I cannot fathom the thought of either of those entering my system. Thank you again for this opportunity to share my experience. I am glad to have both shots and I hope I am NEVER this sick again!!!!

The day after the vaccine, I noticed the following: (1) A blister had grown on the left side of my mouth overnight (took a picture). (2) Three red under-the-skin, semi-circle 'brusies' on my right upper arm. The bruises were NOT raised. I thought that I'd taken a picture of this too, but I must have deleted if for I currently cannot find a picture. I did, however, mention these on my weekly check-in call regarding the vaccine. (3) I've had a sore throat and, periodically, a shortness of breathe since that week of the vaccine.

I have seasonal allergies so it is hard to say if what I felt came from the vaccine or just my routine seasonal allergies. Approximately 45 minutes after my shot I did start to experience what I recognize as allergy asthma which I have routinely every spring and fall. Allergies I have year round. I seem to be allergic to everything but I have been dealing with this all my life (since 10 years old). I was asked if I have asthma but I responded no, which I don't have asthma I have what I have been told allergy asthma. Plus I really wanted to be vaccinated for obvious reasons. Now I am worried if I should get the second shot. I am hoping you can advise me. Other than the allergy asthma I experienced a feeling of being ill with needing a lot of rest for that day of the shot and the following two. But I heard that is good news.

24 Hours after the shot I had a heavy feeling in the chest and felt like I really had to pull hard to breathe in, this continued to get worse and I had difficulty talking for extended times at work. Thinking I was having allergy issues, I tried an albuterol nebulizer and that did not provide relief. This continued for approximately 10-11 days, slowly getting better after 8 days. On March 10 I went to my Pulmonologist (xray done, no fluid seen or heard) and on March 11, the Cardiologist. Both doctors believe I had an "immunogenic response" to the vaccine. I have since had a tight, clutching feeling around the heart when I start to exercise. This continues daily and it is now April 21st. I am fearful of the second shot so have decided to not get it. I may wait for a booster, but I am very fearful of another vaccine.

I got a Mighty sore arm about 4 hours after injection. 30 hours later I began to feel agitated and grouchy. I woke up about 44 hours after vaccine with a painful and swollen left thumb joint. I felt strangely tired. While walking a couple of hours later I felt drunk and dislocated from my body. 48 hours after receiving the vaccine, I felt a shocking jolt to my entire body. Immediately my left arm began a deep painful tingling from my shoulder to my fingertips, then began to feel numb and tingling and as if it were swelling. I lost my vision, felt like I was going to pass out, turned extremely pale, broke out in a cold sweat, then my shins and feet began to tingle. I felt as though I couldn?t breathe. My vision came back but my body felt dislocated and my head a cinder block. It took great concentration to move my limbs and speak. I couldn?t find the words I wanted. This lasted for about 15 minutes just like a complete shock to my nervous system. I was very irritable and exhausted for 4 days following.

A few minutes after injection felt a quick electric-like shock across top of head and momentary faintness. A few minutes more, I began to have a tight feeling in my throat and swallowing was difficult. Felt the need to swallow frequently. Got nervous so stayed past 15 minutes. At 30 minutes, it wasn't getting worse and my breathing felt fine so I left (foolishly) the vaccination site. Throat felt tight the rest of day. Kept feeling the the need to clear my throat. Sore. Hard to swallow. At 10:15pm, the tightness and swallowing issue abruptly stopped. Throat felt sore for next 2 weeks. Asked pulmonologist if my allergy and asthma medication could have suppressed a more insidious reaction. Did not know. Saw allergist. She did not know either but gave me an epi-pen if I was going to try shot 2. Also suggested J&J as an alternative. Ordered blood tests for reactivity to 2 chemicals close to PEG. (no blood test for it). Results not back. Noted that I was taking lisinopril which is an ACE inhibitor. Said they can cause swallowing problems. Cardiologist did not think so but changed my medication to a calcium channel blocker instead. Called Pfizer. They classified my reaction as an immediate adverse event and took a record of it. I canceled my second Pfizer shot appointment because the CDC site says not to take second shot if you have an immediate adverse reaction. Very disappointed and confused how to proceed. Mixed advice from doctors. Really wanted to be vaccinated. Really don't want to have a worse anaphylactic reaction which my pharmacist could happen if i tried it again. Don't feel safe trying it at the mass vaccination site at the beach.

8 hours after receiving injection, started having a sore throat. 48 hours after injection noticed a small grape size lump/knot close to collar bone (lymph node?) on left side which is the injection side. 72 hours after injection, I had lost my voice, not totally. Sounds like I'm whispering when I talk. I also had the normal reported sore arm, but was quite bothersome for 3+ days. I have also noticed some shortness of breath and still quite tired after doing several small chores. I am currently on day 11 after injection, and have another smaller lump/knot beside the first one that appeared by my left collar bone. The only side effect that has dissipated is the sore arm, I still am having fatigue, shortness of breath, lumps near collarbone and loss of voice. I have not seeked medical treatment since I have no health insurance. I felt like these would subside, but have not so far. I am really hesitant to receive my 2nd dose since claims are that it is worse that the first, regarding side effects. I feel that my body has not recuperated from trying to build up my immunity. As stated above, my side effects have not subsided as of today's date, 11 days after receiving the 1st dose injection.

The EMTs there gave me a wheel chair and took vitals. I felt very weak all the time, like I was going to collapse. and I was breathing heavily. Good news is that my vitals stayed within normal range., and nothing more severe happened (my doctor had said to bring my Epipen, just in case). After about a half hour, I was getting weaker, and the dizziness had not subsided, so they called an ambulance and transported me to the Hospital. The dizziness started to subside after another hour or so. They dismissed me after I was able to walk and was not in danger of falling.

This morning they found her passed out against the her bedroom door. Pt reports that she can't remember much other than going to the bathroom. Pt's sister states that patient totaled her car a week ago, and that it was determined she had a concussion. "She hasn't been herself since the wreck and I am very concerned." This caller recommenced the Ed or UC but caller denied stating that either needs to see her today. This writer is reaching out to nurse to see if they can advise from here." A RN assessed the patient virtually with the following documentation: "RN note: Call transferred from patient's sister. Pt noted to be found on her floor this morning. Pt unsure if she hit her head. Spoke to patient. She reports body aches, and feeling weak. Pt is slow to answer questions, and had a lot of difficulty hearing me (sister did not have any difficulty hearing me). Pt is noted to have more rapid breathing, and some slight wheezing. Speech is clear when she is speaking. Sister gave patient water to drink. She drank out of bottle and was able to hold on her own (though had difficulty with this at first). Sister noted some water dripping down face, but was able to swallow okay. Sister also noted that patient's lips seem to be pursed. Plan: Given recent concussion, and patients change in behavior per sister (pt more irritable, speaking more slowly, moving slowly, breathing faster, and wheezing), recommended patient be taken to the ED today--recommended ambulance since it took 2 men to help patient back to bed this morning. Sister states patient is not agreeable to going to ED at this time. Advised to try to encourage her to drink more fluids, and continue to monitor her sxs, and if any worsening, to call for ambulance transport. Sister agreeable to plan, and will discuss with sister, and recommend ED visit today." On 4/30/21, the patient's sister contacted the clinic to inform them that the patient was found dead that morning. The medical examiner is completing the further investigation. If additional information is needed from the primary care physician for this patient.

06:30pm I started to feel achy (flu-like achy); throat was sore and tight; nauseated. I got an increasingly bad headache. I had taken a couple of regular strength Tylenol - a little before 06:30 pm mostly to prevent soreness in my arm. Around 7:15 or 7:30, I felt this wave of fatigue wash over me and I was chilled and I crashed on the bed - blankets around me with hot water bottle. Fatigue and chills lifted around 11 pm; headache, aches and sore throat remained. Around midnight, in addition, my chest started to tighten up again although not as bad as the first time; tooth pain and jaw pain and tingling down both of my arms. It was worse on the right. About 1:30 am on the 9th, the tingling started moving up over my scalp and over my head. My heart was pounding again and it was like having an anxiety attack without the anxiety. I had pretty much all the same symptoms as I had the first vaccine but it wasn't as bad - it was a milder version of them. I couldn't fall asleep until 07:30 am and slept until 2:30 pm and the symptoms persisted. Later that day, on the ninth, my lungs were off gassing chemicals it seemed and I felt it is a mist was going off in my brain. Both of these things, I have experienced before and they seem to be kind of random and they don't really have a cause for them. Same thing for the symptoms continuing - note on April 23rd - diminishing slowly. Heart pounding continued - Pulsometer showed it around 70 or so but it felt it was really pounding. I had the nausea, headache, sore throat, achiness, blah feeling - flu-like symptoms again - these would pop up randomly for a few days and then go away. They were gone when I saw my doctor on the 3rd of May but they had not been gone long. (So between the 23rd of April and May 3rd they went away.) This does seem to have made my ME a little worse - I seem to be a little fatigued then I was before - everything else has gone.

Note: the Lot # could be - ED7534 - difficult to say. I got the shot around 5 pm and felt fine until about 01:00 AM. I started having chest pains in the muscle. I took 1/2 an alprazolam tablet but it didn't do anything. My chest felt tighter but I was still able to get a full breath through everything though. My throat got scratchy and tight. Both of my arms were feeling tingly. I have bone spurs, I associate tingling in the arm with bone spurs with my nerves and what they pressed. The vaccine seemed to make everything every chronic issue I have flare up. Around 2 am I took reg. strength Tylenol and the antihistamine because I take those twice a day regularly for year around allergies. I also took a Benadryl in case I was having an allergic reaction Around 2:30 am, my tongue started feeling kind of tingly especially on the right side. A lot of the chronic pain are worse on the right side of my body. I was feeling kind of nauseated. Around 3 am the tingly sensations spread up my face mostly on right side and I had pain in my teeth - not unusual because of the nerve damage that has happened on the right side. I had a hysterectomy some years ago and since then I've had cluster of nerves in my lower right abdomen that is the epi center of a lot of my nerve pain and that cluster started throbbing and sending it up into my chest and that started acting up and it runs up right to my left breast. This usually doesn't all happen to me at once but these are things that have happened to me before. I eventually went to sleep. NExt day, About 2:30 pm, I got out the pulse/ox thing - Oxygen: 97 - even though my heart was kind of pounding - my pulse was 65 and 60. I called my doctor's office and got transferred to COVID hotline at Hospital and I talked to nurse there who told me the vaccine can cause inflammation throughout the body which could cause the exacerbation of all my usual symptoms and why they all were flaring up all at once. All the doctors in my doctor's office were busy and she found a Physician's assistant who could talk to me and he told me what she had told me. And to be prepared for me to be prepared for it for the second dose. It took almost until it was time for my second dose of vaccination for the symptoms to dissipate. It was a very slow process. It was four days before I was going to get my second one before I felt like the symptoms had gone. I talked to my doctor before getting second one and she gave me the go ahead to get it.

I was sitting after I got the shot and I started to feel a little off. I felt light headed and wish I would have drank more water before I received the vaccine. I was kind of okay, sitting there waiting, but then I started feeling a weird sensation from the top of my head to the tip of my toes. My skin felt like it was tingling. While I was sitting there I was thinking that I was experiencing anxiety. I received a phone call from my sister that distracted me from my feelings and I felt okay. When I started to leave, I felt light headed and disoriented. I thought I may have been dehydrated. I went to the car and my lips felt like they were swollen, but were physically not. I started feeling like there were pins and needles in my skin. I started to itch in the back of my throat and started experiencing breathing complications. I sat in the parking garage for 40 minutes and debated if I wanted to go back. It was a long walk from my car to the vaccination area. I had my service dog with me and decided to go home. The itchiness went away and I started feeling better for about 24 hours. The next day, I ended up in the ER. I was given Benadryl and in 10 minutes I was fine. Over the next couple of weeks, I started experiencing random heart palpitations. It felt like my heart would skip and jump from time to time. I have not seen anyone yet in regards to my heart. I have had multiple ocular migraines. I still get them now and then after receiving the vaccine. It affects my vision for up to 20 min to an hour after the headache. Bright lights and too much time on my phone and computer causes a problem for my vision.

On the fourth day after vaccination, I noticed that my heart was racing and beating off rhythm. This got worse on the fifth day post vaccine. I was also somewhat short of breath, and since this was very atypical, I went to the Emergency Room. An EKG showed pretty constant PVCs. I was given metroprolol and seen by a cardiologist. I was sent home with metoprolol 12.5 mg/twice a day. I took as prescribed for a few days and then tapered off this medicine before cardiologist followup appointment. I was still having some PVCs at that point. A holter monitor soon after showed normal heart rhythm. I have had just a few episodes of PVCs since and for the last month, my heart beat seems normal.

The doctor originally thought her D3 levels could have been very very low because she has been researching the vaccine and said that people with low D3 levels had reactions. But her doctor also said no one has died from the vaccine and she had read people had died so she knows that was a lie. The doctor does not suspect that her experience was myocarditis. Patient asked if these symptoms were normal and will the reaction after the second dose be worse. The patient went to her doctor, she had blood work done on 01Jun2021, she thought maybe it was due to may be something else was going on in her blood she said her blood work was perfect specimen of health and told her to go for the second shot.

I am a 58 year old woman who was pretty much healthy prior to the vaccine. I exercised for about an hour every day however after the first Pfizer vaccine in March I felt unwell so I stopped exercising. Then, after the second vaccine, I thought I should get back to it and started up again only to find I had shortness of breath with exertion! I went to the doctor and she set me up with a breathing test (which I hadn't had yet) and a nuclear stress test for the heart. The nuclear stress test shows a "fixed defect" and I went to a cardiologist yesterday who says he's going to run more tests but it does look like there's no blood flow to part of my heart. I'm going to be scheduled for a CAT scan of my heart soon and if that shows a problem I'm going to have a cardiac catheterization! I wasn't on any medicine prior to the Covid vaccine. Now I've been prescribed heart medicines and may need heart surgery! I'd be happy to open my records up for you if you think it would be useful to warn the public.

After the first and second dose I was exhausted for a week straight each time. Felt fluish and general malaise. The month after receiving the second dose I started coughing wet/dry. It would not stop. I felt very run down and had a hard time taking a full inhale of breath. My oxygen levels were normal though. I saw a pulmonologist who after sending me to get a Chest XRAy, PET scan that my lungs were peppered with fibroids. My lymph nodes were entirely active in all parts of my body. I have been feeling generally sick and very weak over all for months. Lots of pain in my back and front where my lungs are located. I've had a hard time working or standing for any long period of time. My last xray at the beginning of 2020 and was completely clear. My doctor recently put me on Hydroxychloroquine.

She had a biopsy of her lung granulomas, and the biopsy showed the granulomas were clusters of inflamed cells. The pulmonologist took a biopsy of some lymph nodes, and the biopsies were all negative for cancer. Reported she constantly felt sicker, and her chest organs, primarily her lungs, felt hot or like they were on fire in her body. She periodically had severe back pain in the location of her lungs, and also had pain in the front (chest area). Reported she was highly emotional now because she felt like she was getting better than wasn't and was now stayed at not getting better. Reported she had a new pulmonologist who prescribed Hydroxychloroquine. She said she didn't know the Hydroxychloroquine NDC, Lot and Expiry Date.

Echocardiogram showed leaky valve; has had breakthrough tachycardia episodes; Since receiving both doses of the vaccine, caller states she has developed an gastrointestinal intolerance to Miralax (polyethylene glycol).; she started feeling a lot of bloating in her upper GI; acid reflux in her throat; throat was hurting; impairing her breathing; panic attack; Testosterone level as high as a male's /Her level was like 300 which is like a teen male; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable pharmacist (patient). A 58-year-old female patient received bnt162b2 (BNT162B2 reported as PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), dose 2 at vaccination age of 58-year-old via an unspecified route of administration in the left deltoid on 18Feb2021 [late in the morning] (Lot Number: EN6200; Expiration Date: Jun2021) as dose 2, single for covid-19 immunization. The patient received the first dose of bnt162b2 (BNT162B2 reported as PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) on 28Jan2021 (Lot Number E, I or L, 9265; Expiry Date: May2021 [also reported as Jun2021]) for Covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included allergy, compromised immune status, respiratory illness, genetic/chromosomal abnormalities, endocrine abnormalities, obesity and ectopic atrial tachycardia. Family history for as gastrointestinal there is none but for the cardiac, she has a history of stroke and heart attack in her family. Concomitant medications included aluminium hydroxide, magnesium trisilicate, sodium alginate (PEPCID) for little reflux; omeprazole (PROTONIX) for an unspecified indication; macrogol 3350 (MIRALAX) [for years] for constipation; testosterone taken for an unspecified indication; and metoprolol [been on that for years] for ectopic atrial tachycardia, all therapy dates were not reported. Historical vaccination included Zostrix vaccine (That was right before the Shingrix came out) at the beginning of 2017 for shingles immunization but had big large welt on her arm with a raised red area for a month. The patient reported that she got the two Pfizer covid 19 vaccine doses and since receiving both doses of the vaccine, caller states she has developed a gastrointestinal intolerance to Miralax (polyethylene glycol). She mentioned that she has had breakthrough tachycardia episodes in which she has a history of ectopic atrial tachycardia with no change and has taken metoprolol for years. After the second vaccine, she noticed that she would be sitting and all of a sudden, she would have a tachycardia attack. She was on her beta blocker and it was quite frightening. She took a second dose of her beta blocker and tried to breathe deep and eventually within a half hour it would resolve. She was getting a panic attack and thought what's going on. She saw her cardiologist. Her cardiologist recommended increasing her dose of metoprolol. Cardiologist also said she has noticed in her practice that after receiving the Covid Vaccine patients had a little exacerbation of cardiac conditions. Her cardiologist thought it could be due to the vaccine. The breakthrough episodes the caller experienced would happen suddenly during periods of inactivity like while watching TV. She increased her dosing for two or three months after her second dose and it has resolved. The patient has resumed taking her normal dose of metoprolol. Occasionally her heart rate increases more with activity or if she had an alcoholic drink which she knows that can happen or if dehydrated. She is comfortable and feels like she did before the vaccine. She feels more stable. The patient inquired if there were any reports of patients who received the Covid Vaccine and subsequently developed gastrointestinal intolerance to Miralax or Polyethylene Glycol. She was taking Miralax for years, and then 2 weeks after the second vaccine (01Mar2021), she started feeling a lot of bloating in her upper GI and acid reflux in her throat. She didn't know if it was a coincidence or if she developed an intolerance. The patient reported that she was seeing a gastroenterologist wherein she asked him about it, and he said he has no data. She searched herself and she couldn't find anything about it. She did report it with the CDC through texting, but she hasn't received any texts from them. Around 01Mar2021, she noticed that her throat was hurting, and it felt like a lot of gas was stuck in her throat. She mentioned that she could only tolerate small meals. She usually has the symptoms at night when she is laying down. She would get up and then started to make sure she waited 4 hours after eating before she went to bed and raise the bed. Now, she was on a PPI twice a day plus Pepcid at bedtime. She never had this before. She started thinking what if her body was reacting to something. She stopped the Miralax for a while and it seemed to get better, but her constipation got worse. She just started taking the Miralax again a week ago and now she feels like something is stuck in her throat, it is the same acid reflux as before. She is thinking she will stop the Miralax again. With regards to the seriousness of the event, her gastroenterologist and ENT both think that it is not serious, but to her it is very disturbing because it feels like something is stuck in her throat. There is air stuck in her throat until she can finally belch it out. In the meantime, it is disturbing, and it feels like it is impairing her breathing. For her it is very significant. She doesn't like getting vaccines and she doesn't get the flu vaccine, but this is different. She is also older and could get complications. When asked causality, she stated she is just wondering because she knows that there are vaccines people can develop allergies to. She thought maybe because her body is very reactive, it was her body thinking it was the same Covid protein when it was introduced to the Polyethylene Glycol and went into defense mode. She has been searching the internet and can't find anything with regard to the Covid vaccine. The only thing she could see was GI distress with Covid. On another side note, she was on a topical testosterone therapy. She didn't know this, but she got her testosterone level taken and it was as high as a male's level. She stopped using it after that. Her gynecologist changed her to estrogen on preparation. She found on the internet hat a high testosterone level can cause tachycardia, but she doesn't know. It has since resolved. It was a compound that was prepared by the pharmacy. She doesn't know whether they made a mistake or what happened. They use a powder and put in almond oil. She doesn't know if it was weighed properly. Her level was like 300 which is like a teen male. She had the test probably 2 months ago (2021), and that's the only test she had while on the medication so who knows how long that was going on. Investigations: She had an echocardiogram on May2021 which showed a leaky valve which happens with age. Her doctor is not too worried at this point. She mentioned she thought it could have something to do with the vaccine and maybe things will calm down, which it appears they have. She thinks she had the echocardiogram done in May. For the reflux, she had a nasal endoscopy done from the ENT. They did not see any damage to the lining of her throat. All of her symptoms are in her throat, not her esophagus. She doesn't have a burning chest or anything. She had it done in the beginning of June. The patient reported that she did not visit the emergency room. She thought about it and wanted to when she had a panicky feeling like her airway was compromised, but she never went. She tried to calm herself down and breathe deep. She measured her oxygen saturation and told herself she was getting oxygen. She added the she went to physician's office. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included echocardiogram showed leaky valve on May2021 which happens with age and nasal endoscopy which showed no damage to lining of throat on Jun2021 for the reflux she had a nasal endoscopy done from the ENT which they did not see any damage to the lining of her throat. The outcome of the events tachycardia and testosterone high were recovered on an unspecified date in 2021, as for the events gastrointestinal disorder and acid reflux were not recovered while the outcome of the other events was unknown.; Sender's Comments: Based on a the vailable data a contributory role of BNT162B2 to the events, cannot be fully 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

The patient previously took prochlorperazine maleate (COMPAZINE) and experienced anaphylactic reaction, Diavan and experienced angioedema and allergic reaction, and first dose of bnt162b2 (lot number is EJ1685 with expiration Mar2021) on the right arm, on 18Dec2020 for Covid-19 immunization. The patient was calling about Pfizer COVID vaccine number 2. She knows she could go on the website but she also had a question she would like to see if she could be answered. She said she took the COVID vaccine 2 on 08Jan2021, Friday, and on 10Jan2021, Sunday she noticed she couldn't breath after taking her Progesterone. She takes Progesterone for perinatal menopause symptoms and she really needs it. She noticed about 20-25 minutes after taking her progesterone that she was short of breath and this has continued if not increased. It is not going away since then and she is wondering if there is any end in site. She went to a physician that is very knowledgeable and he said it is triggering an inflammatory response but she is really short of breath she is walking around with a O2 sat monitor on. She doesn't know if there is any end in site. She does not want to have to go in the hospital. Mainly after she takes her progesterone she is short of breath and she has gone down on her dosage a lot and she still having shortness of breath. She took the progesterone and 25 minutes later she became short of breath. The reaction has increased since it started on Sunday evening, 10Jan2021. She is noticing, she is still taking it and it has a long half life but even with dropping the dose a lot even with that it has stayed the same or gotten worse. She says she took her Progesterone on Saturday as she normally would. But Sunday morning when she took her 300 mg in the morning about 20 minutes or 25 minutes after she was very short of breath like she can't get a whole breath of air. She has reduced the dose she is taking now. Yesterday she took 200 mg and today she took 200 mg. She has been on it for 3 years and she has never had shortness of breath. She has never had shortness of breath before even though she is overweight she has not had shortness of breath unless she is running or some sort of exertion this is totally new. She said her initial side effects the fluish symptoms and fatigue began Friday evening on 08Jan2021 and had resolved completely on Saturday, 09Jan2021. Outcome of short of breath was reported as worsened (not recovered). The action taken for progesterone was dose reduced.; Sender's Comments: The event short of breath is more likely due to progesterone based on more close temporal relationship. However, a possible contributory role of BNT162B2 cannot be completely 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.

They transferred me to a Covid 19 nurse that said go to emergency room right away sounds like yiur getting Bell?s palsy. FYI my brother who lives in another state did not report his side effects. In February he got the second dose of Pfizer and he said four hours after he got nerve problems in his face and his right side of eye and mouth drooped and he was talking strange like someone with paralysis of mouth . Still has it but never went to doctor and won?t fill out info to report

16 min after injection i feltmlike i needed fresh air as it felt like i couldn't get a good breath. I asked to go outside and was told no. I moved from back to the front as i felt cold and was swearing. It was sift chsnge and the staff was huddled in a corner and i called for help.2x before taking off my mask amd callinf a thried time. By this point i felt like vomiting and nedded immediate water. The thirst was intrnse. The University of Arizona didn't have anything for me to throw-up into except a half full used large janitorial garbage can. I was given water and that really helped the thirst and nausea. The nurse came and put a monitor on my finger and immediately took me to a back area where rhe cold sweat and chills now covered my whole body and the thirst returned. Tje nurse took my vitals and i remember my heartbeat reading in the 30s and had a very low blood pressure. No one ever experienced what was happening and i asked if i was going to die. The only thing they had to lie down on was an army cot 6" off rhe ground. I wanted to lie down so badly buy it had no sheets, pillow or anything. With all the money they get from the feds they should be able to afford a gurney. I was never told the truth about what had happened to me. I was let go with a very low heart rate of 51. My normal is 68 to 78. No follow up instructions.

A 59-year-old-female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 MRNA VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration on 15Mar2021 (at the age of 59-years-old) as a single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included allergic to a lot of medications/ antihistamines. Concomitant medications were not reported. The patient previously took diphenhydramine (BENADRYL) and was allergic. On 15Mar2021, within 2-3 minutes of vaccination, the patient's heartrate was 112, she started getting dizzy, lightheaded, and had vertigo. Her oxygen level was okay. On 15Mar2021, the patient also had some brain fog and trouble focusing, the right arm was itchy and hot where she got the injection, her eyes were itchy. The patient was then taken back to lie down. It was hard to breathe and she had to take large deep breaths.

Also, on 15Mar2021, where the patient's thyroid is was swollen, the patient couldn't really walk and had no balance, had ringing in her ears, her tongue tingled but didn't swell, the walls started moving and she lost her voice. The patient was kept for 2 hours and was almost sent to the ER. The patient brought an epinephrine (EPIPEN) but there was concern administering it because her heartrate was high.

25 minutes Post injection: Left eye issues. Itchy, swollen behind the eye and feeling like something was in it or irritating it. It kept driving me to check if something was in it. I put in renu eye drops and did not think any more of it. 40 minutes post injection: both feet red and swollen left foot about half of the top, the whole right foot looked like a giant hive or welted area across the whole top of foot. The injection site began being quite sore, and it also looked welted and felt hot to the touch. I kept checking my left rib cage and my left thumb as I was sure there was going to be hives, because I could not stop rubbing or scratching them as they itched so badly. I continued itching and feeling weird tingly sensations and either rubbed or scratched these areas to no avail. Even my head itched terribly by the second day. 45 minutes post injection: Tightness and scratchiness in throat appeared and my throat was sore, my voice began going out and my voice got hoarse. There was about a two inch area of my throat in which I felt I needed to keep trying to clear something that was stuck. (This made no sense to me as I was able to drink water without any issues.) I had a slight cough every time I stopped drinking, so I continually drank water while I was not trying to sleep. My chest was tight, but because I have asthma I took albuterol and thought nothing of it. (This really did not help, but I did not get worse either.) About an hour after the shot, I constantly felt on the verge of shaking, much like when you have a fever, but I did not think to check my temperature until the following morning when I was extremely tired, felt like I had a sinus headache and possibly did have a fever. My temperature was 99.4 degrees farenheight. At this point, I felt very flu-ish and achy. My armpit area hurt a lot and I chewed two aspirin. I experienced wheeziness, chest tightness, and hoarseness the second and third day as well. I had the morning congestion and stuffiness as well as the need to keep clearing my voice still as of this morning but to much less degree as the initial onset. The skin itchiness is still ongoing, but to a much lesser degree than previously had.

O2 level was 82-86/ Oxygen level was like 84 or 86 so she was put on oxygen; inflammation in the lower lungs that was rubbing on her diaphragm; Pneumonia; Cough/bad cough/dry cough; Stomach pain/top part of her stomach would hurt/stomach was hurting right at the bottom of her rib cage; gastroenteritis; short of breath; she wasn't breathing deep; feels like she doesn't have any energy; feeling bad; nauseated/felt sick to stomach; ate about half of her breakfast, this lasted for several days, she wouldn't eat much; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient's husband) via Pfizer. This consumer reported similar event for two patients. This is the first of two reports. A 59-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number: EN6206, expiry date: unknown), via an unspecified route of administration, on 09Mar2021, as single dose, for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included exposure to SARS-COV-2 on 02Mar2021 (reported as "daughter tested positive for COVID on 02Mar2021, patient had been around their daughter and their daughter's husband, they went out to eat with them on the night of 02Mar2021"). Concomitant medication included esomeprazole sodium (NEXIUM) taken for an unspecified indication, start and stop date were not reported. On 09Mar2021, the patient received her first shot. About 20 minutes after she took the shot, she started feeling bad and became nauseated/felt sick to stomach. On 09Mar2021, the top part of her stomach would hurt, and she started developing a cough. On 11Mar2021, the patient felt like she doesn't have any energy. The coughing went pretty bad so on 12Mar2021, the patient took a COVID-19 PCR test and it came back negative. The patient kept having a bad cough so then they went to the doctor where they put the patient on prednisone 20 mg and amoxicillin 875 mg on 12Mar2021. On 16Mar2021, the patient went to the family doctor and the doctor put the patient on azithromycin and gave her a steroid shot. Then the patient kept coughing and her stomach was hurting right at the bottom of her rib cage. The patient was never getting better or anything. So, on 18Mar2021, the patient had COVID-19 Virus test where they swabbed her nose and the test came back negative. The patient was taken to the hospital on 19Mar2021 at 11:30 where they did an x-ray of the patient's lungs and her O2 level was 82-86 sitting in the bed (also reported as 84-86 so she was put on oxygen), performed CT scan of her lungs and it looked like there was inflammation in the lower lungs that was rubbing on her diaphragm, and performed Chest CT which determined pneumonia. That night they did another COVID-19 virus test where they went really deep and it came back negative. The patient was admitted to the hospital on the night of 19Mar2021. The patient was given IV ceftriaxone, IV azithromycin, azithromycin (also reported as Zythromax), one breathing treatment, and they said they may have to send the patient home with some oxygen. It was also reported that on 19Mar2021, the patient did really good with coughing, she didn't cough that much. The patient had a dry cough that wasn't productive at all. The patient acted kind of short of breath because she wasn't breathing deep because of the pain in the top part of her stomach, but the reporter doesn't believe it was true shortness of breath. When the patient got out of the hospital on 22Mar2021, she didn't need to come home with the oxygen. The patient's oxygen level is running pretty good at the time of the report, in the lower 90s (Mar2021). The patient was on Decadron 6 mg for 5 days and she's doing pretty good, she still has a little bit of a cough. It was also reported that in Mar2021, the patient only ate about half of her breakfast, this lasted for several days, she wouldn't eat much. The patient pretty much recovered from the nausea. When she ate, it felt like everything would make it to her stomach and just sit there. The emergency room doctor said it could be from gastroenteritis, also they gave the patient several rounds of Protonix. The patient usually takes Nexium every night. The doctor felt that this event could very well be from the vaccine. The reporter asked if the patient could get the second shot on 30Mar2021. The patient was recovering from "Cough/bad cough/dry cough", "Stomach pain/top part of her stomach would hurt/stomach was hurting right at the bottom of her rib cage", and "O2 level was 82-86/ Oxygen level was like 84 or 86 so she was put on oxygen"; has recovered from "nauseated/felt sick to stomach" on an unspecified date. The outcome of the events "inflammation in the lower lungs that was rubbing on her diaphragm", pneumonia, "feeling bad", "ate about half of her breakfast, this lasted for several days, she wouldn't eat much", "feels like she doesn't have any energy", "gastroenteritis", "short of breath" and "she wasn't breathing deep" was unknown.; Sender's Comments: Linked Report(s) : US-PFIZER INC-2021329963 Same reporter, drug and event; different patient

Next day very tired, nauseous, headache, scalp itched very badly, a little dizzy and felt very "off". All resolved by the 2nd day.

Congestive heart failure; Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; congestive heart failure and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; Arm was killing her all the way down/her arm hurt so bad/ left leg hurts from her knee to her hip; Chills; Headache; Left leg hurts from her knee to her hip; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 59-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (Lot Number: ENB207), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in right arm on 19Mar2021 08:00 AM (at the age of 59-year-old) as single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included asthma since 1990, obese since 1990, Congestive heart failure about 4 years ago in 2017, Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease since 1989; all were ongoing. She had a chemical exposure in a small town that started the COPD since about 1989. Concomitant medications were not reported. The patient previously received fluzone on unspecified date for flu vaccine and caused COPD exacerbation, she was given doxycycline and prednisone with that. The patient is calling about the Pfizer Covid 19, her first dose she received on 19Mar2021. She isn't going to take the second Covid 19 vaccine. On 19Mar2021 at 7:00PM on the day she received her Covid 19 vaccine her arm was killing her all the way down/ arm hurt so bad she wanted to cut it off. That lasted the whole next day and she took 2 Tylenol arthritis pills. Her arm was real sore the next day but it wasn't paining her like it was that first day. It was still a little sore but not like it was. The pain was down the whole arm. Last week (on unspecified date in Mar2021), she started getting headaches and chills. She'll get a chill and the chill will go away. Then a couple hours later the chills will come back. Her headache comes and goes. She checked her blood pressure and her blood pressure is normally low, she checked it and it was 117/76 in 2021. She knew her blood pressure wasn't causing her headaches. And she checked her oxygen level on unspecified date in 2021 and it was good. She normally does not have headaches. She's on 4L of oxygen because of congestive heart failure and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Her breathing has been, she can't describe it. Her doctor prescribed some steroids yesterday, 30Mar2021. She is asking if this is normal after 2 weeks. When asking her about her breathing she reports it's like her chest is tighter and she has shortness of breath. If she moves, her oxygen level on unspecified date in 2021 drops with the slightest little movement. Her oxygen has been dropping into the 70s and she has to do the pursed lips breathing to recover. It's taking a while to recover. She has to really work to get her oxygen back into the 90s. That started last week some time. She did call her doctor and her doctor prescribed prednisone and doxycycline (Prednisone 4, 10 mg tablets for 3 days, then 3 tablets for 3 days, then 2 tablets for 3 days, then 1 tablet for 3 days and Doxycline Hyclate 100mg 1 capsule twice daily for 7 days). She forgot to mention that her left leg hurts from her knee to her hip on unspecified date in 2021. That started a couple days ago. She didn't have any problems with her hip before. She's scared because the second vaccine is more potent, it's worse. She doesn't know if she's going to get that second Covid 19 vaccine. The outcome of the events was not recovered.

She is out of breath when she is talking; Can hardly take the pain/all muscles seem to be hurting/things really started to hurt in the group of muscles; She started getting bad/shw was awful/she thought she was dying; Vaccine in the right arm, which swelled up for a while; Pinched nerve under my arm sometimes/she has pinching nerves too underneath her arm underneath her underarms; It will go numb (both arms); This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (the patient). A 59-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in right arm on 24Mar2021 16:45 (Batch/Lot Number: ER8727) as single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included ongoing spinal stenosis (is in the very bottom of her back and she had three back surgeries, one surgery in the middle of her back, one is the neck and one on the bottom of her back and this is years in the making), ongoing diabetes, fall on 01Feb2021 or 29Jan2021, she fell and her arms were outside and caught her fall and the underarms hurt and she fell onto her breast hard; according to the HCP she had a look and said she pulled the muscles and this is ongoing. She stated that the muscles would be across the top shelf of her breast above the start of cleavage and under her arms on the outer sides of her breast, underneath her shoulder blades and to her spine things are getting better but she was not perfect and is still hurting and now is lucky if she can reach to grab her diet soda; overweight from an unknown date, and tooth infection from Mar2021 (probably about 6 days before getting the vaccine and is taking Clindamycin 300mg capsules and takes it three times per day). There were no concomitant medications. The patient stated she had the first dose of the vaccine on 24Mar2021 and she is supposed to get the second dose on 07Apr2021. She stated she had the vaccine in the right arm which swelled up for a while (in Mar2021) and next day was fine. By Saturday (27Mar2021) things really started to hurt in the group of muscles. By Sunday (28Mar2021), she could hardly take the pain and went to the HCP on a Tuesday. The pain totally changed. All muscles seem to be hurting, pinched nerve under her arm sometimes. Sometimes it will go numb (both arms). Above T11 and 12 by 1 or 2 places that it would go numb. When she lays down it goes away for a while. When she sits up, it is painful. She reported she has never experienced pain like this. This was worse than her fall. Her doctor thought things were exasperated by the vaccine and she was given prednisone. She also took Tylenol#3 every 8 or 9 hours. She was wondering since she is scheduled on 07Apr2021 for the 2nd vaccine if she should take the shot and how to know if she should or not do this to do more pain to herself. She stated that the pain was enough to make her cry and she has pinching nerves too underneath her arm and underneath her underarms the pain goes down if it gets really bad. She stated she saw her primary care HCP after she got the COVID Vaccine and she wanted to go to the emergency room but she figured they would give her some type of medication so she went to see the HCP and waited two days to see the doctor. On a Saturday, 27Mar2021, she started getting bad and then Sunday, 28Mar2021, she was awful and then on Monday 29Mar2021, she thought she was dying and saw the doctor on Tuesday, 30Mar2021. She also stated she is out of breath when she is talking on an unspecified date. The outcome of the event "vaccine in the right arm, which swelled up for a while" was recovered on an unspecified date, and unknown for other events.

A 59-year-old female patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection), dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 22Feb2021 11:15 (Batch/Lot Number: EL9266) as SINGLE DOSE for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included arrhythmia, ear infection. Concomitant medication(s) included propranolol (PROPANOLOL [PROPRANOLOL]) taken for arrhythmia from Apr2020 to an unspecified stop date. The patient previously took augmentin [amoxicillin;clavulanic acid] for ear pain and experienced rash on her elbows and palm and arm. Caller stated on Friday 05Mar2021, which was the 11th day after getting the Pfizer COVID Vaccine although she noticed symptoms on the 10th day 04Mar2021 after receiving the vaccine, states she noticed she had a hive rash on her palm and hand and elbows/rash on her palms, hands, elbows, and left hip and it was strange and her elbows were red and were itchy on the palms like red and itchy and she could see the rash starting on the left inside forearm; from there as the day wore on into the next day the rash became worse and more areas of the body were covered with the rash. States she made an appointment on that Monday morning with her HCP and had gone into the HCP office at that time; states on 08Mar2021, she was in distress with her throat starting to swell, her tongue started to swell/ her lips and tongue began to swell and she was covered with the hives and rash from head to toe. Caller states she was started on Prednisone at her HCP office and it was one of those dose packs; states she has no lot numbers to provide. Later on that evening she needed to go to the emergency room and she had become more severe and had a big dose of Prednisone at the emergency room and at that time the HCP there did believe she was having what is considered a post COVID vaccine delayed allergic reaction and hives; states she was in the emergency room early and was there past midnight and thinks she presented to the emergency room on 09Mar2021 and then most recent results she has of her paperwork were from 09Mar2021 to 10Mar2021; no further details provided by the caller. Caller states she was in the emergency room rolled over to the next day on the 09Mar in the evening around 10:30pm and concluded her ER visit on the 10Mar after 12:30. Caller states the HCP gave her the 40mg dose of Prednisone by injection and she has no lot number; states then at the ER, they gave her Prednisone 125mg IV and she has no lot number; they gave her hydroxyzine which is Atarax by IV and gave her Pepcid for her stomach at the same time; no lots for the Pepcid or Hydroxyzine. States the reason for her visit was allergic reaction, allergy hives, post covid delayed reaction. States she let them know at the site that before the vaccine she felt like she might have had an ear infection and was not taking anything no vitamins or anything like that and no Tylenol or anything for a week or so prior because she wanted nothing to be in her system other than the vaccine should anything happen. Had the vaccine that day, later on that afternoon contacted her HCP felt like she had ear infection, no fever but had fullness and some pain in her right ear. Saw her HCP at that time and took a look inside her ear and felt that she did have an ear infection without fever but was painful to the touch around her ear underneath her ear; prescribed Augmentin which she has taken before. Started taking one Augmentin pill on the 23rd in evening which would be Tues 23Feb2021 for the 1st dose, 500mg and dose supposed to take following the next day was to take two tablets one tablet twice per day which she did finish up around 10 days of that on 04Mar. The day before all this started with the rash she finished Augmentin, went to the HCP and two things happened; she was taking Augmentin and had the Pfizer COVID Vaccine. States she had the rash on her elbows and palm and arm and she was like that coincides with the Pfizer vaccine but also was on Augmentin and had been on that before with no problems; thought it was either the vaccine or being on the Augmentin as the reason for the rash but narrowed it to the vaccine. States she ended up in the hospital that evening on Monday evening of 09Mar and it was something they had not seen but were prepared to see could happen and concluded the rash was from the vaccine. Caller states she went to see her immunologist at the conclusion of this event and she was still covered in hives and rash and did step her down on the Prednisone and prescribed her hydroxyzine and topical itch stuff. Caller states she has no lot numbers to provide for the topical stuff or the hydroxyzine or Prednisone. States the HCP concluded she could not receive the 2nd dose of the Pfizer COVID Vaccine or any other vaccine that comes forward and she is not a candidate because of this reaction he can't safely say it would be ok to get a 2nd dose of the vaccine; states she can't receive a 2nd dose of any covid vaccine and it worried her because she has to be ok with having had the 1st dose of the vaccine and wants to know where she stands with that and what to do and she just doesn't know. States it is not she herself saying she can't get the 2nd dose of the covid vaccine but under her HCP advice and two ER visits and many doses of Prednisone and she presented how she looked and that prompted the HCP to say no 2nd dose for her. States she was taking Prednisone started two days of 50mg then 2 days of 40mg, then 30mg, then 20mg, then 10mg and that brought down the amount in her system; states she was given Hydroxyzine 1-2 tablets every 4 hours of 25mg and has no lot numbers for the Prednisone or Hydroxyzine. Caller states instead of taking Benadryl she was taking the topical stuff because Benadryl was not really working and she took Benadryl 25mg tablets in the beginning to try to get the itching out of her system and she felt really really tired and was so tired from taking the Benadryl; caller states she has no lot numbers to provide for the Benadryl. She was given a prescription for Hydroxyzine and the thinks it tended to work better and she did not take a drastic amount of it but it could cause drowsiness and she did feel a lot better from taking it but did not have a really bad feeling of feeling really dopey and sleepy with it because she felt bad enough and did not want to feel bad. States she kept on this for the 10 days or more of a 14 day course and was feeling like until it started to subside. On an unspecified date it was reported that Her WBC count was high and her "liver was not doing great" but recent bloodwork shows it has returned to normal. The patient was hospitalized for the events developed hives/rash on her palms, hands, elbows, and left hip, elbows were red, hive rash on her palm and hand and elbows and it was strange and her elbows were red and were itchy on the palms like red and itchy, her lips and tongue began to swell, WBC count was high, liver was not doing great, post COVID vaccine delayed allergic reaction. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included white blood cell count: returned to normal on an unspecified date, white blood cell count: high on Mar2021. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of the events except for WBC count high and liver was not doing great. The outcome of the events was unknown.

Body temperature dropped about 1.5 degrees for about 3 days. Intense right shoulder joint pain about 1 day. Overall body joint stiffness about 2 weeks. Easily became winded about 2 weeks. I am a competitive athlete with a focus on sprints. I compete in both track and swim meets. I practice running and swimming about 6 days a week. I can usually swim at least 200m at an "easy speed" pace (faster than most people but not sprinting) without getting out of breath. After the shot, I would get winded after doing just 16m at easy speed.

She declined stating that she did not have someone who could pick her up and stated that she would rather take benadryl at home. - She stated she felt safe to drive home. I gave strict warnings that if any sx recurred or if any new or concerning symptoms developed that she should call 911. Reviewed signs and symptoms of anaphylaxis. - I advised she take liquid benadryl when she got home and have someone monitor her for the next 4 hours. Essential hypertension - elevated today likely due to increased stress/anxiety and not taking BP medication this morning - I advised that she monitor her BP closely at home. I advised she take her BP medication when she got home if her throat felt normal. - recommended f/u with PCP Encounter for administration of vaccine First Pfizer COVID Vaccine given today I recommended she consult with her PCP about the second vaccine. She expressed understanding and all questions answered. ----------------------------------- Called patient at 2:10 pm to check up on her. She states that she took liquid benadryl about 40 min ago and that all of her symptoms have completely resolved. She states that she is feeling great now. She denies difficulty breathing, throat swelling/tighntess/thickness, tongue swelling, wheezing, headache, n/v/d, lightheadedness, hives, itching, palpitations or chest pain. She states she took her BP medications but has not checked her BP at home yet. I recommended she continue taking benadryl as needed and recommended she follow up with her PCP in 1-2 days. --------------------------------- Patient's PCP) I wanted you to be aware that your patient had a mild reaction vs flare up of her environmental allergies after her first COVID Vaccine today. I called her 4 hours after the vaccine. She had taken benadryl at home and her symptoms had resolved. I was hoping to consult with you about her receiving her second vaccine. Her BP was elevated. She had not taken her BP medication this AM. I recommended she also f/u with you on that as well. --------------------------------- Dr's response "People react to making antibodies. The serious anaphylaxis is rare. Most are having general side affects and flu-like symptoms I would like you to administer the 2nd vaccine. Notes seen on morning of April 20. Responded."

A 59-year-old female patient received second dose of bnt162b2 (BNT162B2, lot number ER8727, expiration date: 31Jul2021), via an unspecified route of administration in arm left on 07Apr2021 12:00 as single dose for Covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included allergy ( macro Danton, sulfa). Patient was not pregnant at time of vaccination. The patient did not receive any other vaccines within 4 weeks prior to the COVID vaccine. The patient's concomitant medication included Nerontin. The patient reviously received flu vaccine and had normal things, previously received first dose of bnt162b2 (Lot Number: EN5318; Expiration Date: 31May2021) in arm left on 17Mar2021 16:00 and experienced acute lymphatic response, brain fog and arm started to hurt. The pateint was calling because her doctor, who she saw yesterday 14Apr2021, told her she should let Pfizer know what was going on. She had a reaction to the Pfizer Covid19 Vaccine. she was now having PVCs. The patient added that all of the events started with a fever, and throwing up. She had a fever and threw up for 36 hours. She had to contact her physician to get medication and to stop vomiting and the nausea and everything. During that time, she was sick. She was having intermittent breathing issues which she did not think she felt too much of until after the other sickness was over. She was weak, like people get after they are sick, and had bizarre shaking legs and arms which was strange. She added that she had breathing issues and difficulty breathing and hard to get a breath. That was what she was dealing with. Treatment: caller took Pedialyte and all the proper things to get back into better shape. The breathing issue still remained. The doctor called in a rescue inhaler. She kept going downhill so he called in a rescue inhaler. Large black bruise on left breast after second vaccine: Caller added that this one will not be believed but on Monday, she woke up and got dressed again and was just weak and had breathing issues but was just doing work on the laptop. She did not fall, she did not run into anything. In the evening, she went to take a bath and saw that when she took her clothes off there was a large black bruise on her left breast, it was probably 2 inches in diameter. It is very large, but does not hurt like a bruise. She checked the rest of her body for blood issues and only saw a couple normal looking bruises. She contacted her doctor, and they questioned her thoroughly on her bruising and activity. This was on Monday. Tuesday, she still felt the same headache, weak, and breathing issues. PVCs (Ventricular premature beat) after second vaccine: Yesterday, 14Apr2021, she started declining and the doctor wanted to see her. Caller stated the doctor heard PVCs in her heart. Caller asked clarification of PVC abbreviation and does not provide. She never had heart issues ever. The doctor did blood work and a chest x-ray, and saw the bruise and was worried about her blood. Caller added that even though these are not listed as side effects of the vaccine, she was worried. Her doctor sent her to a facility for chest x-rays to make sure there is no pulmonary embolism. Caller confirmed this was on 14Apr2021. She has not yet heard back. PVCs after second vaccine: Caller added the doctor said her lungs sounded good but wanted to see what was going on to see how her breathing was because there was difficulty. The doctor wanted to cover bases and check. Today, caller can tell her heart is still not in correct rhythm and that it is in continued PVCs. She still had the same breathing issues, limbs were weak, she was shaky, and she is lightheaded. She was hoping to wake up today and feel better. Fever after second vaccine: started 3am 08Apr2021. She had a fever and was throwing up at this time. Throwing up and nausea after second vaccine: caller add that throwing up and vomiting with nausea occurred at 3 am, all of this occurred 08APR2021. The vomiting lasted 36 hours, and it ended when she took medication. The fever lasted 40 hours. Even after the medication worked for her fever, she had nausea. Around Friday was when it went away. Intermittent breathing issues after second vaccine: caller adds it started with throwing up and fever, but she did not think a lot about this or know when it started because she was dealing with the fever and vomiting. It continued, and it has not subsided or ended. As a matter of fact, there are 2 or 3 times it has gotten bad which is why she was given an inhaler. Treatments: caller took a Phenergan suppository, which she adds is the best medicine in the World for nausea and beats Zofran. She had used two or three doses and it did work. She used a rescue inhaler, Albuterol Sulfate HFA. She took Tylenol for fever. She is also now taking an aspirin daily because of the blood issues. No additional information regarding the products. Weak after second vaccine: caller adds that this started at the same time, she was over the nausea and noticed this. It felt different than what it feels like with the flu. This is still going on, she did not think too much about it but it has persisted. Sometimes there is a little bit of shaking but that is intermittent. Caller states she can not put it into words. Bizarre shaking legs and arms after second vaccine: this goes with the weakness, she is continually weak but she has a shaky feeling that will come every now and then and is random. Large black bruise on left breast after second vaccine: Monday this started, 12APR2021 and it is still there but it is the same. It has not been sore like a bruise but it is black and large. The physician has seen it now and it is bizarre and scary. It is the left breast on the outside. Headache after second vaccine: started probably an hour after the vaccine, pretty quick. There were degrees to this headache because it was an actual migraine for a good 48 hours and even after the fever was gone it was terrible. It started out just a mild headache and then was very severe for a couple of days. Then, after that it was just there but not as severe. PVCs after second vaccine: caller adds that she went to the doctor yesterday 14APR2021 and she can tell every now and again that she is having these but there is nothing she can do about it. Caller adds this is everything new she can think of, but some of it is foggy, she thinks this is the main information. Brain fog after first and second vaccine: Caller then states, by the way, after both vaccines within 2 or 3 minutes of having them her head started feeling foggy and weird. Investigations: caller has not received any results yet. She did get an EKG, Chest XRAY, blood work, and the doctor also rattled off a bunch of things the doctor was going to check. These all were on 14Apr2021 and she is waiting on results. Caller confirms the physician told her she had PVCs while listening to caller's heart. Did any AE require a visit to: Physician office? 15Apr2021 she was in contact with her physician, and the whole week they were on the phone. Yesterday 14Apr2021 the physician wanted to see her. The doctor figured out something was going on with her heart so thankfully the doctor wanted to see her. It was discussed if caller should go to the ER but caller did everything she could not to go because that is the last place she wants to go. Emergency Room: no. Prior to vaccination, the patient was not diagnosed with COVID-19. Since the vaccination, the patient had not been tested for COVID-19. The outcome of fever, vomiting, nausea was recovered, intermittent breathing issues, shaking legs and arms, weak, severe migraine, headache was not recovered, for other events was unknown. No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information is expected.

I had a telephone "visit" with my PCP on May 3rd because both his office and urgent care would not allow me to come in person with possible COVID symptoms. My PCP prescribed an antibiotic, an inhaler and a cough medicine.

Concomitant medications included ongoing oxycodone hydrochloride, oxycodone terephthalate, paracetamol (PERCOCET) 10mg every 4 hours taken for pain, and her doctor recently changed it; ketorolac tromethamine (TORADOL) injection and something for acid reflux but she did not think that's relevant. The patient previously received the first dose of bnt162b2 (lot number: EN6208) in arm right on 16Mar2021 9:48AM for COVID-19 immunisation at the age of 59-year-old and she had no problems just soreness in her arm. There were no Prior Vaccinations within 4 weeks. She had her second Covid 19 vaccine yesterday morning, 20Apr2021. Cervical vertebra #8 through Lumbar vertebra #5 was very, very painful from 20Apr2021. She didn't know or hasn't heard if the Covid 19 vaccine is associated with her back pain. This pain that she's having now didn't feel like the pain she had related to her Tarlov cysts. Before the Covid 19 vaccine she had no problems until late last night (20Apr2021) and early this morning (21Apr2021). She was in excruciating pain. She reported it's complicated for her to make that mind adjustment. She texted her cousin this morning at 6:30AM (21Apr2021) because she had to let her cousin know what was going on. If her cousin texts and she doesn't respond, her cousin will do a welfare check. She doesn't want a welfare check so she told her cousin to just let her sleep, let her see how she feels when she's up again. She reported sometimes when the Tarlov cysts were bothering her she could lay on her back and it would soothe her pain. This time that was not working. She reported she had her vertebra and her discs and then her outer muscular system to the flank, that is where it was painful. She didn't know if this is normal. She was hearing normal side effects like tiredness and fatigue, she was not having those because she was not normal. She was 1 in 2 billion with her Tarlov cysts. She has complications with her Tarlov cysts. She has mobility issues and problems standing and sitting. She has Tarlov cysts from Cervical vertebra #5 bilaterally down. She had multiple cysts. She didn't know if the Covid 19 vaccine was aggravating her back. She reported she has 2 nervous systems, her parasympathetic and her sympathetic nervous system. She reported this is in her parasympathetic nervous system. She reported sensory, if she touches something hot, she knew it was hot. She reported this is so important. She had muscle tenderness and muscle tightness from 20Apr2021and that's it. She knew what she was taking about because she was using medical terminology. The pain felt like someone kicked her in her kidneys. The kidneys, where the waist is on her back to the top of her sacral area and up the spine to where her first rib is and go outward, that's where her pain was, from thoracic vertebra 12 to lumbar 5. The only different thing she's done was get the Covid 19 vaccine. She was trying to triage herself. She didn't know what else to do. The Percocet was not even fixing it. She wanted to make sure the Covid 19 vaccine wasn't exacerbating her disease. She thought that's what's happening. She was in a lot of pain. Her pain was the same before and after when she took the Percocet. Normally the Percocet calmed her down to where she's functional and the Percocet was not. Percocet was 10-325mg, oxycodone and acetaminophen. Take one 4 times daily as needed for pain. The Percocet was a pharmacy bottle. In order for her to have a quality of life she also took Ketorolac or Toradol. She hadn't taken that today (21Apr2021). She picked her prescriptions up at the same time she received her Covid 19 vaccine. She can lay on the ground on her back sometimes and her pain will be alleviated. Now laying on her back exacerbates her pain. She didn't know if it's muscular. If she was diagnosing herself, she would say it's not muscular. She knew enough about Tarlov cysts that she knew how to rule it out. She reported her felt feels like it's punching her lungs. She reported it's so hard to explain. She's trying to separate the pain she has from her Tarlov cysts from what she's experiencing now. She reported her pain was a 10 plus in both flanks. She stated people will call flanks "the sides". The only reason she knows it's a flank is because she had learn anatomy real quick with her Tarlov cysts. On the date of her first Covid 19 vaccine she had a steroid injection and a Toradol injection. With her second Covid 19 vaccine she had a Toradol injection. The pharmacist told her there would be no conflict in receiving the Covid 19 vaccine. she has to suffer through it until her pain subsides. It feels like it's kicking the heck out of her back. When she lays supine she can alleviate some of the pain associated with the Tarlov cysts but that's not working. She can't stand or lay supine, all of that is out the window. Meaning it's not working. This pain has to be the Covid 19 vaccine. She's in a lot of pain and she didn't need the vaccine to exacerbate her pain. There were no vaccines administered on same date with the Pfizer vaccine considered as suspect. The adverse events did not require a visit to Emergency Room or Physician Office. The outcome of events was not recovered. No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information is expected.

I was hospitalized for bilateral pulmonary embolism 4/18/2021 at hospital. I think I had symptoms for over 3 weeks prior to hospitalization. I was rapid COVID tested on 3/26/2021 the nurse at CVS asked why my blood oxygen was low. I did not know but had me pant and move my fingers and it went up to 96. I also remember severe leg pain on a drive 3/25/21. I noticed shortness of breath 4/5/21 and fast pulse but didnot go to hospital until 4/18/21. I previously had a PE 7/2009 and also had it for ~2 weeks before going to hospital. I was not on blood thinner since 2015. The doctors at the hospital and primary care doctor did not seem to think the PE was vaccine related but they also do not believe I had symptoms for over 3 weeks.

Patient had IV fluid initiated wide open and CT scan was obtained of head chest abdomen pelvis given the fact that her altered mental status could be from some kind of intracerebral catastrophe and the patient's abdominal exam being unobtainable certainly possible that her GI bleeding could be from a perforated viscus. CT scan of the brain does not demonstrate any stroke that appears to be acute however there may be some ischemia present although it may be remote and an MRI will need to be done when the patient is more stable. CT of the chest abdomen pelvis shows what is likely an aspiration pneumonia on the right as well as a perforated viscus in her abdomen. Radiology feels is probably somewhere in the right colon terminal ileum. At this point the patient was given Cipro and Flagyl and that should also aid with her aspiration pneumonia. Her blood pressure did start to decrease her temperature was noted to be elevated at 101.8. She was given Tylenol rectally and fluids were allowed to run wide open.

Most of the small intestine and large intestine was affected. o Procedure: Exploratory laparotomy, ICG injection for evaluation of perfusion Indication and Consent Findings: . Findings: Even after the ICG injection. There was spotty tissue necrosis from mid jejunum all the way through sigmoid colon. Most areas were blackened with a foul smell. There was some highlighted areas secondary to the ICG but not a significant amount that would lend for an anastomosis. Black ascites was present throughout the abdomen. Unfortunately after much contemplation there was no surgical intervention. Procedure Procedure: Patient was placed in supine position. Was intubated in the emergency room so, we were able to proceed with resuscitation through our anesthesia team. Patient's abdomen was prepped and draped in usual fashion. Proceeded to make a midline incision. The blood supply in the subcutaneous tissues did not even bleed. Appeared to be darkened and almost coagulated. As we entered through the fascia we were able to open the peritoneum between 2 hemostats. The large rush of free air through from the abdomen. We then proceeded to open the abdomen for the length of her incision. This was done with electrocautery. From here there was a black ascites present within the abdomen. There was a large amount of dead intestine that we could immediately see. I worked my way to the ligament of Treitz. There was no adhesions so this was easily found. That intestine did appear to be pink. It lasted for about a foot. After that area everything was either black or purple in color with a few pink spots in between. This went all the way down to the terminal ileum where pneumatosis was visualized. We then looked at the colon from cecum through rectum. It appeared to be blackened as well. Not knowing whether all of this intestine was dead or not especially with patient being hypotensive I injected ICG dye approximately 2 cc. This was to evaluate perfusion. Unfortunately perfusion was no better than what I could visualize. I could not even find enough room of the colon or small intestine to make an anastomosis. Was very hard decision, however, we did not resect any bowel. I closed the patient's abdomen. Patient will be taken to ICU on ventilator. Discussed with daughter with pastor present.

I was working outdoors and was stung by a bee. Normally, the site of the sting will swell up a little and be itchy. This time, within 15 minutes I was breaking out in hives and feeling woozy as well as having my ears, throat and tongue swell up. My heart beat was very rapid and I managed to lie down on the ground in the shade and not pass out. Luckily my breathing was okay and once I felt less woozy, I went to my truck and took and Advil ( the only medication I had with me) and poured my iced drinking water on a bandana which I applied the back of my neck . Then I simply sat down on some steps in the shade with my head down for about an hour. When I felt well enough to drive, I bought Benedryl and went home for a nap . I had another Benedryl, some food and went to bed. I feel very lucky that this reaction was not worse. I was just very surprised at having such a reaction to a bee sting and felt very tired and muzzy for several hours. I should be clear and state that this is the 5th bee sting that I have received in the last 12 yrs. I work as a gardener and I realize that as I am older, my immune system may have developed a much stronger allergic reaction to bee stings. But I do not have any other health issues and I exercise and am in fairly good shape. I am just wondering if it just a coincidence that I recently had my first Covid shot.? Or not?

After waiting 30 minutes, I left the site. Felt short of breath, but attributed that to the stress of getting the shot-I don?t like needles and the person who administered it was not nice. I left work early, went home, took a nap and when I woke up, my heart was racing, and it wasn?t like it does after exercise

The patient received her second Covid 19 vaccination on March 11 but was experiencing some myalgias. She had multiple sick contacts at home with COVID-19 infection. Unfortunately she had diarrhea and poor p.o. intake and developed dehydration. She came to the emergency department for further evaluation after she had her vital signs at home and saw her heart rate was elevated and her blood pressure was low. She was found to have a sinus tachycardia with hypotension upon arrival despite the fact that she has been holding her blood pressure medications for several days. She was hypokalemic. Covid swab came back positive. She was given IV fluids and potassium was replaced her blood pressure remained on the lower side. She was admitted to the hospital and started on steroids. She met criteria for remdesivir and convalescent plasma with saturation at 90% on room air on the second day of her admission. She completed a 5-day course of remdesivir. She was given a unit of convalescent plasma. Her potassium normalized. Her heart rate normalized. She had a better oral intake. Metoprolol tartrate was started on a lower dose for blood pressure and heart rate control. Her blood pressure remained in the normal range off her lisinopril and Norvasc. She does have history of Leiden 5 and with a history of DVT and takes Xarelto. She had a D-dimer which was checked which was normal. She continued on her Xarelto as an inpatient. She has clinically improved and is now ready for discharge. She is agreeable to remote patient monitoring and that has been arranged. She should follow-up with her family doctor in 1 week. Her lisinopril and Norvasc were discontinued at discharge. I have recommended close follow-up with her family doctor to reintroduce these medications as needed pending on blood pressure trend. _ Labs/Imaging LABORATORY: CBC: Results from last 7 days Lab Units 03/22/21 0629 03/21/21 1224 03/20/21 1528 03/19/21 0550 WBC AUTO K/mcL 5.8 6.2 4.4 3.8* HEMOGLOBIN g/dL 13.8 13.4 12.7 12.2 HEMATOCRIT % 41.1 39.9 38.9 37.3 PLATELETS K/mcL 237 204 187 147 NEUTROS PCT AUTO % 63 -- 81 75 LYMPHO PCT MAN % -- 17 -- -- LYMPHS PCT AUTO % 29 -- 14 18 MONO PCT MAN % -- 2 -- -- MONOS PCT AUTO % 6 -- 3 6 EOSINO PCT MAN % -- 0 -- -- EOS PCT AUTO % 0 -- 0 0 CHEMISTRY: Results from last 7 days Lab Units 03/22/21 0629 03/21/21 0642 03/20/21 1529 03/19/21 0550 SODIUM mmol/L 141 140 138 143 POTASSIUM mmol/L 3.8 3.9 3.6 3.6 CHLORIDE mmol/L 105 106 106 110* CO2 mmol/L 28 26 21 24 BUN mg/dL 18 18 16 8 CREATININE mg/dL 0.77 0.79 0.81 0.71 CALCIUM mg/dL 8.7 8.9 8.6 8.3* TOTAL PROTEIN gm/dL 7.1 7.2 -- 7.1 BILIRUBIN TOTAL mg/dL 0.3 0.4 -- 0.4 ALK PHOS IU/L 103 101 -- 106* ALT IU/L 12 15 | 15 14 15 AST IU/L 15 17 -- 22 Results from last 7 days Lab Units 03/20/21 1529 03/19/21 0550 03/18/21 0601 MAGNESIUM mg/dL 1.9 2.2 2.0 COAGULATION: OTHER TESTS: No results found for: TROPONINI IMAGING: X-ray Chest 1 View - Portable Result Date: 3/17/2021 XR CHEST 1 VW PORT IMPRESSION: Limited patchy bibasilar airspace disease, right worse than left.

A 59-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number: EW0170), via an unspecified route of administration, on 16Apr2021, as 1st dose, single, for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included hypotension from an unspecified date, and chronic motility issues from 2017 and ongoing. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. On 16Apr2021, the patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 and got slightly dizzy immediately after the vaccine. Her arm did not hurt, and she was okay until she went home. She had nausea and headache. She went to sleep and woke up after 12 midnight (17Apr2021) with a really bad headache and her heart was pounding like she was in a race. She also had pain in all of her left arm where she got the injection, body aches and pain in the left side of chest, like her heart was hurting. She checked her temperature it was not too high; it was 99.5 so not over 100. She took Tylenol 100 mg. She woke up at 2:00 and still had headache. It took all night to help her headache and she took another Tylenol 500 mg. When she woke up next morning, she still had a headache but not as severe. She thought okay this is going to be the usual thing and go away in a couple of days. She reported that from 16Apr2021, she could not fall asleep and would get a headache which got worse as she was not falling asleep. On 17Apr2021 and 18Apr2021, the patient experienced really bad pain, her arm was hurting, and she kept taking Tylenol. On 18Apr2021, she started coughing so she took Robitussin for the cough. On the same day, 18Apr2021, she had body aches, nausea and was exhausted. She mentioned that she is a very active person, an avid cyclist, and normally walks 10 miles, but when she walked a couple of miles, she was exhausted and could not do anything else. It was very difficult for her and it was unusual. She was still experiencing the events on 19Apr2021 and 20Apr2021. So, on 21Apr2021, she went to her primary care physician's office but saw another doctor who was available that day. The doctor checked if her legs were swollen and checked her lungs. The doctor stated the patient was wheezing a bit but did not see anything else. The doctor advised her not to take the second dose. The patient mentioned that her pre-existing condition (chronic motility issues) got worse. In Apr2021, experienced upset stomach, severe abdominal pain. On 22Apr2021, she woke up and felt totally fine. She thought the symptoms were finally going away. But at 17:00, she felt unwell, had body pain, headache, and she was coughing again. She went to sleep and woke up on 23Apr2021 at 04:30. She woke up with a severe headache, extreme nausea (no vomiting), was really weak, dizzy, absolutely exhausted. She still had exhaustion, nausea, body aches, and cough. She checked her blood pressure (BP) and it was 131/104, her pulse was 104. She took Tylenol 1000 mg and the symptoms did not go away so she took another Tylenol 500 mg. After an hour, her headache was not better, dizziness was bad, but her BP was going down. She called the nurse line and was advised to go to the ER. At the ER, she was given IV fluids to hydrate and pain medications. She was then tested for COVID-19 which came back negative. The patient also had cognitive problems. By the time she got to the ER, she was forgetting words (she would try to say something and she would forget what she was going to say it would take a while, like a brain fog) and she would forget what she was doing. She would catch herself forgetting and not remembering words. The patient wanted to know if she should get the second dose, how long should she wait until she gets her second dose, how long do the side effects last, will the side effects from the second dose be worse, how the vaccine works, asked the ingredients of the vaccine, and asked if there is a need for a third dose. The patient assessed the events dizziness, nausea, headache, pain in arm, chest pain, fatigue, body aches/bad pain and cough as serious (medically significant). The patient was recovering from dizziness, headache, body aches/bad pain, hypertension, cognitive disorder, aphasia and memory impairment. The outcome of the events nausea, fatigue, and cough was not recovered. The outcome of the remaining events was unknown.

She only had her first dose. She did the self reporting tool. She developed Shingles exactly 24 hours after she received the shot. It seems coincidental. She went to urgent care.

Her concern is because it was the first shot and she is going into day 16 and has another one scheduled for the 29th. Is shingles a common side effect?

Immediately after this vaccination I was very sick for about 6 days. Even though my symptoms were normal known side effects, they were so extreme that I was bed ridden for most of the time. Then 5 weeks after this vaccination I was sick with some type of viral illness. Several days into this illness, on May 19th, I suddenly had shortness of breath. The next day, May 20th, it was worse so I went to my doctor's office, where they gave me a rapid covid test (negative) and an inhaler. I'm very concerned because I have not needed an inhaler for about 15 years. I'm reporting this in case there is a link to the vaccine.

Starting 4 to 5 days after vaccine I became short of breath and developed foot and total body swelling with petechia on feet and decreased urine output. I am a physician so I fluid restricted myself, wore compression stockings and took lasix. The lasix had little effect though i was able with fluid restriction to become volume depleted enough that I became orthostatic at day 10 after the vaccine with a resting blood pressure in the low seventies systolic at which point the foot swelling had not disappeared but also at which point i started taking fluids again, also with no increase in urine output which remained at less than 100 to 200 cc per day. i presumed that i was undergoing acute tubular necrosis and was waiting to see if it resolved on its own between 10 to 14 days after onset. when symptoms had not resolved by friday january 29th and I was becoming more fatigued and was 10 pounds over my normal dry weight I decided to contact my primary care physician Dr the following Monday but the next day, Saturday the 30th of January I began a huge diareses which continued through sunday and I began to feel much better. I did not contact Dr at that point as the symptoms were resolving and I did not feel that I needed any treatment. I figured at this point that I had had a reaction to the covid vaccine but after consulting other physicians at the medical center where I work it was unclear if anyone had seen such a reaction before and I contacted Dr office to report the event. His office told me they dont report the event. When I asked them why not they said because they dont. They suggested that I might be able to find a reporting form on the Phizer site. I dropped the entire incident until today when I found my vaccination card which lists this web site to file potential complications.

30 minutes after getting the vaccine I started having trouble breathing, it lasted for about 24 hours, I used my inhaler which mildly helped. I was concerned about getting the second shot because of that reaction so I contacted my doctor probably a week after getting my first dose. He said it was a reaction to the vaccine and he said to continue taking my regular medication and I used my inhaler a little bit more than the usual for about a month. The second dose wasn't as bad, and they gave me Benadryl which helped eliminate some of those reactions. I am still using my inhaler more than I used to but not as much as that month.
