This 60-year-old female nurse (patient) received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration on 23Dec2020 to 23Dec2020 at 0.3 mL single on left deltoid to prevent getting the COVID vaccine, for protection. Medical history included ongoing asthma diagnosed in her mid twenties, in the 80s, she had asthma when she was a child, then it stopped and resurfaced in her mid twenties, ongoing eczema diagnosed years already, a long time ago and unspecified allergies with medications. There were no concomitant medications. She received the vaccine on 23Dec2020. She has a lot of allergies in Dec2020, and had some side effects, and she got through it ok. Her side effects were some swelling of arm, a rash developed, like 5cm x 4cm at site of injection, chills and shivers, and a bronchospasm cough on 24Dec2020. Arm swelling event started 24 hours later, no more, it was stable for 24 hours, and the 3rd day, went down, was a little raised, the next day was flat but still red. She had recovered completely. The 4th day was a good day. The patient stated she had some allergy shots she had to go through before, this was no different. Rash was no more, it was gone by 27Dec2020. She was still able to go to work. Chills and shivers started 24 hours later, and took for 48 hours intermittently, she had since recovered completely. The patient stated this was all nothing different than getting like the flu shot. Bronchospasm cough event only took another 48 hours, the difference was, even when she calls it bronchospasm, it was close to when she had an asthma attack, but no chest tightness, shortness of breath, she just would cough, spasm in Dec2020 and stop. She had recovered completely. The patient stated she had no symptoms at all before the vaccine, she was healthy, she made sure nothing was going on, that she was not tired, had no cold, she took no medications for this, as she wanted to know how her body reacted and if it can handle it. They says it was ok to take paracetamol (TYLENOL), but she did not, but the second dose she would, now that she knows and she was comfortable through it. She did have some mild eczema flare ups, itchiness and sores that came up in Dec2020, but nothing to run to the hospital to the doctor for. Clarifies this occured after she received the vaccine. The outcome of the event allergies, mild eczema flare ups, itchiness and sores were unknown. The outcome of rash at site of injection was recovered on 27Dec2020. The outcome of other events was recovered in Dec2020. The causality between Pfizer COVID vaccine with some swelling of arm, rash developed 5cm x 4cm at injection site, chills and shivers, bronchospasm cough was related (Source of assessment: Primary Source Reporter, Method of assessment: Global Introspection).

Looked like an encephalopathy; Face was all swollen; Head swelled; Glands swelled; Fatigue; Headache/ So much pain in my head; Couldn't talk; Complete brain fog; nausea; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable nurse. This 60-year-old female nurse (Patient) reported that received bnt162b2 (BNT162B2, Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine), via an unspecified route of administration on 30Dec2020 at single dose for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included Atrial fibrillation, Chronic Lyme, Lupus and Autoimmune. Concomitant medications included Metoprolol at 12.5 mg for Atrial fibrillation and acetylsalicylic acid (BABY ASPIRIN). No diabetes, no hypertension. None of the usual common diseases. Registered Nurse stated, "I received vaccine this past Wednesday. I was just talking to a couple of my colleagues and honestly I received the vac. at work. I did not really read through the paperwork and was 'weird' sharing reactions to the vaccine which for me was pretty bad reaction and thought like I need to go through your paperwork and report it. So I thought I should call and just give some information. The usual fatigue which I go to after being normal, my arm was not sore. However, as the week progressed into Friday I had a constant headache but it was manageable and then by Friday night my glands swelled, my nerves behind my ears, my neck and I was extremely fatigued, bad headache and went to bed and I had not gone out and finally I got out today I spoke with my Physician yesterday. What happened it looked like an encephalopathy but my head swelled, my face was all swollen, complete brain fog, fatigue and I couldn't talk. I was in so much pain in my head resulting in (incomplete sentence)." Lab work included the only thing is the PCR swabbing. No blood test. Registered Nurse further stated, "I don't know if that is important. But I will tell you and if it is you can send me the questions. I do have a history of Autoimmune. So my Physician thought that this was just like an enhancement of like my bodies reaction I have Chronic Lyme and I have lupus like my ANA has always been stressful. But we think that it is a family thing. No treatment for the Lyme. I did a lot of antibiotic and a lot of naturopathic stuff but that is in the past. But anyhow for anything else what I did was when I got the injection they said try and just take Tylenol not Ibuprofen but there was no way I was going to make it through with just that . So I took Ibuprofen. I called my Physician yesterday morning because I was not sure about what was is happening and I thought it might be secondary sinus infection or something else going on and it reassured me that it is definitely due to the vaccine. He said it is just your body's reaction, take the Ibuprofen, hydrate. Had me take what I had in my house Tigan for nausea. So I was extremely nauseous from the severity of the headache." Registered Nurse stated, "I just wanted to let you know what happened and the intensity of what it was because normally I would expect a headache. But this was a 'go dated'. Registered Nurse stated, "I guess the only question that I have is so do my work has this question and I was going to call my doctor tomorrow may be might know it better. I know that I have to take the second dose. But I understand the second round can be worse than the first. Is there anything that they are recommending that I can do may be prior to ease the reaction?" The outcome of the events was unknown. Information on the Lot/Batch number has been requested.; Sender's Comments: The reported clinical manifestations including swelling face and head swelled, which was suspected as encephalopathy by the reporting nurse, was probably related to the bnt162b2 (BNT162B2, Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine), due to temporal relationship. The subject's underlying Chronic Lyme, Lupus and Autoimmune were likely the risk factors to the onset of the events. 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.

At 4hrs post vaccination experienced extreme muscular pain between shoulder blades. The following week, as far as I can recall, I began to have tingling from the right shoulder blade down to my hand. I thought I may have a pinched nerve and went to the walk in clinic to be seen by the nurse practitioner that is in the same office as my primary. She examined me and thought it sounded like a pinched nerve and said I was swollen in the area of complaint. Cervical and thoracic x rays were taken (normal) and was told to take Flexeril and steroids. Pain was getting worse and primary told me to begin taking Meloxicam and have physical therapy. I have been doing both beginning 1-11-2021. Pain continues with no improvement. Do not know if my symptoms are caused from the Covid shot, but just seemed to me that it was quite a coincidence that muscle pain began on the same day as receiving the shot.

The patient thinks that it wasn't given to her intramuscularly. This is a potential inadvertent subcutaneous administration of the BNT162B2. This patient received her second dose on 20Jan2021 on the side of her arm and reported that it was swollen, red, and hot, but has gotten 100 times better' over the last 6 days since administration. She was asking for efficacy of the incorrectly administered dose. It was further stated that in the middle of the night, her arm was red almost like a little bullseye and she said that she was getting burning, and pins and needles down her arm, and a fullness in her hand like her hand was swollen. She said that she still kind of feels it. As the days progressed on day 2, 3, and 4, the swelling got more intense, the circular red swollen area got worse to the size of like a small baseball. She was feeling okay other than that. Today was day 6 and it was not as red and was more black and blue, swelling went down 80 percent, she still feels a little bit of the pins and needles and the fullness in her hand. She said that there was like a big knot that was very hot. It was a hard like knot at the injection site. The injection site was really big, round, hot, red, and had a knot that lasted; adds it is still there but 99% better; and she had tingling down her arm with pins and needles in her hand. She noticed it was little red a couple of hours, like 8 hours later; but by the next day it was circular, more red, swollen, itchy, and burning down her arm. By the third day, the site had a big, red, hard knot; still burning down her arm and with pins and needles down her arm. She added that her hand felt like a fullness in her hand filled with fluid. By Friday the swelling at the site was gigantic. The site swelling is improved but the redness was more of a black and blue now. Her arm has been very dark red, discolored, swollen, painful and has nerve pain described as "hot tingling down the arm like pins and needles" to her hand. She states that she has a very large knot at the injection site. This was in her non-dominant arm. She spoke with two of the pharmacists that she works with and they looked at her arm and both felt like she may have received the injection subcutaneously instead of intramuscularly. The outcome of events was not recovered. No follow-up attempts are possible. No further information is expected. Information on the batch/lot number has been obtained.

On the day of the shot, by Noon I could feel the vaccine moving into my throat and my face. My throat and left cheek started to swell and turn slightly red. I took more Benadryl and called my allergist in the afternoon. They told me I needed to get to the hospital for treatment. At the hospital, they gave me steriods, benadryl and Pepcid in an IV. After allowing this to work, they sent me home with a steriod prescription for 60Mg for the next 5 days. They asked me to follow up with my allergist if I had other issues , they also told me that I would not be able to get the 2nd dose of the vaccine. Over the next several days, I continued to have issues with this redness that had grown over my entire face. I looked like I was totally sunburned. I did not feel well, the redness was very hot, and I struggled with some breathing. I made an appointment on Monday morning with my allergist, and they adjusted my allergy medicine and gave me more asteroids for 5 more days. They advised me to use my nebulizer treatments as needed to remove the heaviness in my chest. This redness and swelling has moved around my body, almost as if I can see where the vaccine is at in my body. It went from my head to my chest/back and right arm. Down to my abdomen, and then down below my knees. In the morning, it is usually in my face and then it moves around during the day. I can feel this fluid moving around in my body because the redness brings swelling/fluid. This last saturday 3/6/2021 was horrible, it was in my right ear and right foot. It was very painful and made me very dizzy. I struggled to walk. Then on Sunday morning, I felt fine all day. Today Monday, it feels like it is in my right foot again, but I feel like It is getting better.

This patient was vaccinated approximately 1 hour prior to presentation here with her first dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. She felt fine right after her vaccination but as she drove to her destination where she was going to take a walk, she started to develop left-sided facial burning and swelling. That prompted her to call her PCP in that office recommended she come back to the vaccination clinic to be evaluated. I evaluated her at approximately 2 PM.. She was feeling well for the most part with the exception of left-sided facial burning and swelling and a little bit of redness over her left cheek. She denied fevers, chills, itching, other areas of rash, difficulty speaking, difficulty swallowing, tongue swelling, lip swelling, wheezing, chest pain, or difficulty breathing. She recalls a penicillin allergy at age 5 or 6 but cannot remember the reaction. She has never reacted to a vaccine before. Initial vital signs included a blood pressure of 134/73, a pulse that was 70 and regular, and an oxygen saturation of 100% on room air. She had normal mental status and her lungs were clear. The left side of her face was slightly swollen over her left cheek as compared to the right with some slight increased flushing on the left side. There was no stridor, she was speaking comfortably, and her lungs were clear with good airflow. Her heart demonstrated S1 and S2 with regular rate and rhythm. I administered 2 doses of Benadryl, 25 mg with each dose about 15 minutes apart with her last dose at approximately 2:25 PM. I rechecked her vital signs at 2:50 PM and her blood pressure was 138/79 with a pulse of 70 and regular and an oxygen saturation of 99% on room air. Her lungs were clear and she was moving good air. I did take a relook at her face which was improved with decreased swelling. At 3 PM, because she was doing much better, I discharged her to home with instructions to use Benadryl 50 mg when she got home and then 25 to 50 mg every 4 hours today. If she develops any respiratory symptoms such as difficulty swallowing, cough, breathing difficulty, swollen tongue or swollen lips, as well as increased facial swelling, she will call 911 to be evaluated. She should not get the second Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine.

As I pulled up for the 15 minute wait period the symptoms started 5 minutes after I received my vaccine. A tingling feeling up my left arm to back of my neck. My neck stiffened and then my throat started to close. Not to where I can't swallow but just like when I eat food that I'm allergic too, it closes up. The nurse that was overseeing me was holding the umbrella over my car window with the rainfall. All of a sudden their was lightning & thunder. The nurse threw the umbrella because she was shocked from the lightning. She started to talk to all the other around her and forgot about me. Since I could still swallow I didn't get her attention. When she returned she asked me the time so I had to pull my phone out. She didn't know the time of my 15 minutes and sent me away. As soon as I got out of the parking area but still inside amusement park, I started to feel my cheeks becoming numb and my right eye was blurry. I quickly moved over to the side lane still inside of amusement park and waited. I called my husband and told him that with the heavy rain I didn't feel safe driving with my right eye being blurry. I waiting another 15 minutes before driving home. That evening the blurriness came back, my eye's & forehead was tender to touch but no headache. Only pressure in my head. My symptoms of closed throat, swollen cheeks, pressure in my head and blurriness continued on Friday, March 12th, Saturday, March 13th, Sunday, March 14th and Monday, March 15th. As of today, no other systems other than feeling my body has inflammation.

I was given Prednisone, Pepcid and Benadryl intervaneously. The Benadryl injection caused my throat to close for a few seconds. Things calmed down so we waited an hour to see if I was responding. There was not a lot of improvement so ER doctor decided to use Epinephrine (EP pen injection). After 2 hours of observation, I was set home to follow up with primary care physcian.

Following my first Covid 19 Pfizer vaccine 03/11/21: **Note, I went through 1 1/2 days dull ache in arm no concerns > days 2--5 went through a HYPER-WELL (no age aches, prior-hurt finger didn't ache, energy, ladies room habits back to what I reported to daughter "age 20!" for these four days, amazing, enjoyable, then > day 6 very early am woke up with swollen neck lymph nodes half-palm sized rocks on neck, breathing difficulties (lungs not neck), bad dull intrusive headache (different pain from Migraine, or low-hydration pain), cough dry and have called this my HYPER-CRASH because I could barely walk, backward C-shape abdomen hurt (dull ache big always + frequent stabbing pains from below bra bottom line to left abdomen down side then curving to my right across bottom abdomen at both leg-attaches-to-abdomen locations. Difficulty breathing, pain, extreme swelling over upper abdomen when I even drank water to swallow morning Hydrochlorothiazide pill and would stay swollen for 4-8 hours with continued surprise to me gulps of air throughout period, weak, nausea but not vomiting, dizzy, unable to walk more than a few steps at a time, fever taken and wavered from 95 to 99 degrees (my usual body registered 97.8 degrees) but never over 99 degrees, and only over 97.8 degrees perhaps three times very little above it and only for a few hours. >>I went to Urgent Care in person no better at all on 3/24/21/roughly day 12 after vaccine shot 3/11/21 (Urgent Care) which took blood and urine tests determining roaring infection and blood in tests and a CT CONTRAST scan should be ordered by my PCP asap at appt PCP already scheduled 3/26/21 but she couldn't order CONTRAST version the PCP would need to and she prescribed three antibiotics to take over next 2 weeks >> I went to PCP 3/26/21/day 14 after vaccine shot and he ordered CT Scan but insurance required pre-auth and they refused it at first so PCP referred me to GI SPECIALIST who again referred me for CT CONTRAST test, which I did have on Friday afternoon 4/16/21 (Clinic), and I await the results today 4/19/21. Today I continue to have pain abdomen, though softer and throbbing, same C-shaped region, HUGE issue even drinking water with Hydrochlorothiazide pill only for many hours as abdomen swells at bottom bra-line center in a palm size mound for hours, and back hurts badly, solid headache which may be only right side of head more than left but I am taking nothing for any symptoms afraid of GI issue. NOTING AGAIN: Yes I was diagnosed roughly 2015 with a single incidence of diverticulitis/osis by GI SPECIALIST in Town and went through series of Colonoscopies and tests, but tests only determined incidental few polyps removed over all tests and no incidents at all since that. Knowing what I know of my body and health, the trigger seemed to be the first shot of Covid 19 Pfizer vaccination which remarkably seemed to react first with a few days of better health than I have had for decades (eating, moving, energy etc. for my age), where after days of extreme great health and energy (where I went nowhere, and still did not push myself much) my body then crashed to unable to move much or even breath normally for many days after and with a multi-level infection in my gut that needed three antibiotics and after those I still hurt in the same locations. I cannot confidently rule out the Vaccine as the cause, and what I know of my body suggests in fact some "overdrive" function in my system was triggered and then caused the crash that resulted in infection and that continues to interfere with my walking, eating, moving, breathing, and even drinking a small glass of water today. Final note: PCP confirmed I should take the second Vaccine Pfizer shot, which I did on 4/1/21 - same site, Lot #EW0150, after which second vaccine shot I had the same two days of dull arm pain, and I continued to finish the antibiotics until finished (but pain though softer continues to today). I did not experience a #-Days HYPER-WELL episode then HYPER-CRASH after this second vaccine shot, only the arm ache, but throughout was still very unwell (breathing, pain, no activity, weak, unable to eat, swelling, headache, cough intermittent, back hurts, etc.) throughout, and same to this day 4/19/21 as I await CT CONTRAST results. I felt compelled to share I feel this was triggered by the first Vaccine shot, and would not have happened had I not had the Vaccine shot. Thank you.

I was treated and returned to my regular Doctor for follow up. I still have this thing and although it's better it's not gone as of this report and it is causing me distress in typing, cleaning and so on.

Caller reported that the patient received the product during the daytime, all the women at the patient's job, which was home health payroll, everyone left to get the vaccine during work hours, like in the AM at around lunch time. Patient's medical history and concomitant medications were unknown. Patient has not received any prior vaccinations within 4 weeks. Patient had no other vaccines on the same day as the suspect product. Patient received first dose of BNT162b2 (Pfizer-Biontech COVID-19 vaccine, Solution for injection, Lot number: unknown, NDC number: Unknown, Expiry Date: Unknown) on 08Feb2021 with no reaction. She worked for a health agency and the whole office went and got it. Caller provided that her sister had a reaction the first time, on 03Apr2021, where her sister woke up with itching started in her hands and ended up migrating to her whole body. By morning patient's tongue had swelled up, couldn't swallow and her voice was scratchy, like the caller couldn't understand her sister's speech well. Caller provided that her sister went to the ER and said there was a whole team giving her urgent care, medication, and such. Caller reported that her sister said the ER didn't find anything in her bloodwork, and the caller did not think the patient was being treated for any other medical conditions, and caller did not think her sister is on any medications, but caller said to not quote her on that.

Caller reported her sister said that the bloodwork from the ER did not find any-thing, and the patient was not admitted to the hospital.

Caller did not know the end date of her sister's events; all she knew was that the reaction initially started on 03Apr2021. Caller stated that her sister was allergic to nothing, and she has never had incidences of itching like that, where the itching was so bad that she was stripping down and the patient's daughter was patting the patient down with witch hazel. Caller stated that ER released the patient and gave her some medications and such. Caller stated that a day or so later, there was a second round of reaction: the right side of the patient's face swelled up and numb and her lips were numb, like when people have a dental procedure. Lips were numb for a while. Upon completion of the medications she was given, the reactions stopped. Patient regularly saw the family doctor. She would go back to see her Doctor on Thursday.

Caller does not have card with her at time of call for LOT, NDC, Expiry date. Caller stated that she knew that all the COVID vaccines are just in the Emergency Use Authorization stage and in clinical trials, but caller really thought that all manufacturers should be advertising that they would like feedback from patients. Caller has not heard anything from any of the manufacturers saying that people are welcome to reach out and report side effects. Caller states that she only knew to call because she used to be a Home Health Worker, and she thought this is an important data. Caller has never seen on any of her 19 TV channels about calling to report. Caller stated that the girl who first answered her call, read a clinical data sheet about joint pain being seen in 23% of patient's and not knowing a percentage for anaphylactic reactions, caller was wondering if this was true. Caller verified that she just wanted to ask basically that patient was not alone, if other people might have had that happen too. Caller stated that she tried to call, and it would ask another question and it would say press 1 or 2, then it would ask other questions and it would say press 1 or 2, she never got an option 3. Caller asked: how much percentage, has anyone reported this side effects weeks after the second dose. Caller was wondering if this reaction could have been from the vaccine. Investigation Assessment: No. The outcome of the events were unknown. Information on the lot/batch number has been requested.

I woke up 4/26/21 with what looked like 2 bug bites on my left cheek. By morning of 4/27/21, it was completely swollen. I experienced itching, pain & vibrating pulses in this area. The swelling enlarged over the next several days. On 4/22/21, I had gone to my annual dermatology appt at Derm. I had to have 2 spots frozen off my face. One on my left cheek & one on my forehead. Since the swelling was occurring near the area I had frozen on my left cheek, I called Dr at Derm & was seen by them for a wound check follow up on 4/28/21. She did not know what it was but did not think it was related to her procedure. She took a culture & had it tested. Her best guess was that it was either an infection or Shingles. Since the results of the culture was going to take several days, she gave me a RX for ValACYclovir. This was just in case it was shingles. Even with this medication, the swelling, itching, burning & pulsating continued. On 5/4/21, I woke up & noticed a significant reduction in the swelling on my left cheek. I also received a follow up message from Dr that the results showed negative for Shingles. However, they have no idea what caused the issue on my left cheek. She recommended that I notify CDC as it may or may not be related to the Covid shot.

A 60-year-old female patient received the second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Solution for injection), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in left arm on 16Apr2021 at 10:00 (at age of 60 years old, Lot Number: EW0ISO) as single dose for covid-19 immunization. Medical history included she had lupus, sjogren's syndrome. The patient's concomitant medications not reported. The patient previously took Pneumonia Vaccine on 04Mar2021 (Anatomical Location: Left arm); took the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Solution for injection), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in left arm on 26Mar2021 at 10:00 (at age of 60 years old, Lot Number: the lot number starts with ER something and then it ends with a 3) as single dose for covid-19 immunization; took azathioprine for lupus and had allergic reaction; took belimumab (BENLYSTA), subcutaneous from an unspecified date (Lot Number: PV7G; Expiration Date: Jun2023, NDC: 49401-088-01, Number on the side: 0147098) to an unspecified date, self injection once a week for lupus. She gets it through the VA and it is subcutaneous use and the manufacturer is company. she was immunocompromise, she had lupus, so she was off of her medication (BENLYSTA) for a month per the CDC guidelines. She wanted to let Pfizer know that as well. For her first COVID vaccine she was originally scheduled to go 6 to 7 days after she had her pneumonia shot and they told her that she would have to wait 2 weeks before having her COVID shot and she did. Other than that she had followed the guidelines and she had been able to take her regular medications but she had to stop her Benlysta because of her immune system and everything. She had been following through on what the CDC has said. Patient stated that she just did a follow up with her doctor because of what happened after her second Pfizer COVID vaccine and her doctor recommended her to let Pfizer know about the side effects that she was having. On Friday 16Apr2021 she had her shot at 10 AM and it was no big deal, it was a little warm on her arms. She stated that it just looked like a bee sting and it wasn't super sore, it was warm to the touch and sensitive to the touch. It had big red spots and there has really been no change since it began. It looks about the size of a bee sting and it was still there. She had a little tiredness and she was not hungry but when she woke up at 06:40 the next morning (17Apr2021) on Saturday she was having severe dry heaves and vomiting bile and she could not get it under control. It had dehydrated her and she was having severe muscles aches. She had the severe dry heaves and the vomiting that lead to dehydration and then she went to the emergency room and she got replenished and they had given her something for feeling nauseous and eventually she was released 3 to 4 hours later. They gave her pills as well so she was doing well now and she hasn't done anything since she went to the emergency room with the vomiting and feeling nauseous. She went there about 1030 to 1040. Before she went she couldn't stop and she told herself that if it didn't stop on the 5th time then she was going to go to the emergency room and it got really bad so she had to call 911 to come and get her. Then she was having severe diarrhea on Sunday (18Apr2021) and the only way she could stop that was for her husband to pick up antidiarrheal pills. That only went away because of the medicine from the pharmacy. She had the over the counter medicine and she took Imodium. She hasn't been eating a lot so she hasn't had a bowel movement since she took that medication. When she had diarrhea there was no substance, it was very watery. And now today (unspecified date) she was having another reaction that she was seeing and it was just itching on her hands and her feet. She had been continuing to take the Benadryl and something that they gave her in the emergency room and she had taken Tylenol for the little headache that she has had. She had a slight headache and she was still taking Tylenol like they had recommended. This began the same time as she was vomiting on 17Apr2021 when she was going through all of that she had the slight headache. But her biggest concern was during this time when initially on Saturday (17Apr2021), her throat closing up and it being sore from vomiting and dry heaving, she was having the dry heaves her airway closed shut and she couldn't swallow to get any fluids in. Her concern was that the back of her throat was killing her and it was totally closed up so she had to go to the emergency room. She had recognized this because in the past she has had a medication where she had an allergic reaction (she thinks it is the medication that they gave her for lupus because she has been on several different things. She thinks azathioprine but she can't recall exactly but she thinks that might of been the one that did it to her) and it had closed her esophagus up the same way like this. This time it got worse to where she couldn't even swallow water no less a pill. This was on 17Apr2021. When she went to the emergency room they gave her the hydrocortisone to take it down and she actually had felt better while she was waiting for the saline drop. She was able to swallow when her airway was opened again by the time they treated it with the hydrocortisone. Around 16:00 she was better when she left the emergency room that same day 17Apr2021. She doesn't really have a sore throat, it is pretty fine. It seems to be okay she thinks that once the dry heaves and all that stopped it helped to relax that. She was a little raspy from the whole thing and she was struggling with having a dry mouth but that even had been resolved as far as her throat. She had no other reactions than what she explain but she also had a lot of muscles pain but that was to be excepted because it says that on all that she has read. She had had all of the reactions listed except for fever. She had had chills and then when clammy and then was clammy and had chills. She had all of those side effects listed on the sheet and when she went on Saturday following her vaccine to the emergency room most of the side effects were treated in emergency room. They gave her Pepcid, hydrocortisone through her IV and gave her Zofran for the vomiting and they said to keep taking acetaminophen. They gave her cetirizine for allergy or the itching or whatever and they also gave her famotidine which she thinks is Pepcid. Since being off the lupus drug she was getting her symptoms again such as sensitivity to light, inflammation and the dry heaves didn't help so under her eyes it was swollen and she just takes it as it was because she was not on her medication and she had something else injected inside of her. Also, she had Sjogren's disease too so her eyes were already drier than normal and she had had puffiness since 17Apr2021 when she was vomiting. She just wanted to make sure that Pfizer got that information because she didn t see that listed. The only side effect she was related was the swollen glands and she has glands in her throat but she wanted to be sure that Pfizer had that data just in case if it could help someone else. Again, she wants to reiterate that with her first dosage she had no problems. She couldn t even see the mark and all of this is stemming from the second dose of the COVID vaccine. The outcome of the events "Dry heaves, Bilious vomiting, Dehydration, Her throat closing up and it being sore from vomiting and dry heaving, Unable to swallow, Dry mouth, Nauseous" was recovered on 17Apr2021. The outcome of events "Feeling of warmth, Vaccination site pain, Hyperaesthesia, Vaccination site erythema, Tiredness" not recovered. The outcome of the event "Headache" was recovering. The outcome of other events was unknown. No follow up attempts are needed. No further information is expected.

On 04Feb2021, the next day, she woke up with a headache. It was an unusual headache. It did not go away with Tylenol.

On Sunday I got up for work and the hives were large and like welts. This was all over my body. The itching was still present as well. I was advised to go to an urgent care or a doctor.

Hi I got my second Covid shot on Saturday July 10. Shot was in the left arm. Severe headache within five minutes like last time. Felt like a migraine. After an hour the worse pain was in my left breast & armpit. My left armpit was swollen significantly & my breast felt like I was punched or stabbed. I couldn?t lift my left arm. I applied heat & ice alternately & took Tylenol. Then whole body ached like the flu. No worries there, it?s the swollen left armpit & pain in breast that is bad. Yesterday it got worse. I continued with heat, ice & Tylenol. I took today off because the pain is severe & I can only lift my arm half way up. The severe pain feels like how you feel after a surgery when pain meds start to wear off. Do you know how long this will last?? Thanks & have a great day.

New onset eczema- Filed earlier report about being bitten by fire ants two weeks after second covid shot and having anaphylactic reaction with no prior history of insect bite allergies and have been bitten alot including the harvester ant. Now have epipen. Then started fire ant shots in June and developed butt tingling/numbness and muscle and body aches after 2nd fire ant shot. By third shot on on July 1st, I had fatigue, extreme musculoskeletal pain and developed a rash. It was really scary so went to the allergist who referred me to my GP. She thinks it is serum sickness. Saw the dermatologist today about the rash and it started about 3 to 4 days after the third fire ant shot. I have never had eczema in my life either. After three weeks from July 1st, am starting to feel better. Not sure if serum sickness caused by molecular mimicry hypersensitive immune syndrome caused by Covid vaccine or not, but there are a lot of immune mediated things happening to me in less than 3 months. My brother developed pericarditis after the second Pfizer shot and I told him to file a VAERS as well.

fever; nausea; general feeling of unwell; soreness at site; redness; whole upper arm was swollen after the injection; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable other HCP (patient, Respiratory Therapist) reported that a 61-year-old female patient received first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE , Batch/lot number: EJ1685) via an unspecified route of administration on 21Dec2020 around 6:00 PM in left upper arm at 0.3mL single dose for COVID Prevention. The patient's medical history was covid at the end of Apr/May2020 with shortness of breath, seasonal allergies and allergies to "some anitbiotics." The concomitant medications was reported as none, received no other vaccines on the same day as the COVID vaccine. The patient experienced soreness at site, redness and swelling, fever, nausea, general feeling of unwell 3 days. Patient stated, "I had covid at the end of April/May with shortness of breath. I thought I would have less reaction from the vaccine. I know someone who was out of work for a while week after the vaccine." States that she read that the 2nd dose is supposed to have worse side effects than the first. If she had bad side effects from the 1st dose, will the 2nd be worse? Also asking if the side effects are the immune system reacting or just an allergic reaction. Patient was anxious about getting her second COVID shot on 11Jan2021. Patient stated that she had all the side effects listed, for three days. Patient stated that she didn't mind the side effects at the time, she had fever, soreness at the injection site, nausea, and a general feeling of unwell, but Patient stated that she could not work like that. Patient stated that her question was, statistically she has read that the side effects from the second shot are supposed to be worse than the first shot, but she was wondering, if she had bad side effects from the first shot, will her side effects be worse after the second, or will they maybe be lessened because she already had bad side effects. Patient reported that she did fill out the VSafe significant because she had to work on the third day after her shot, which was Christmas Eve, and work, was so busy and she did not feel well. Patient stated that she does have two days scheduled off work after her next injection, but it is the third day that she was worried about because she does not want to work feeling like that. Patient stated that the arm soreness started that same day (21Dec2020). At first, Patient reported that the arm soreness resolved, but then she states that it is still a little sore to the touch. So Patient confirmed that it is ongoing but improved. Patient reportsed that the fever started the day after the injection, 22Dec2020 and it has resolved. Patient reported that the last day she recorded a fever was on 24Dec2020. Patient stated that she woke up on 24Dec2020 and her temperature was normal, so she went to work and she did not feel so well at work, but they were so busy that she barely noticed, and then when the Patient went home that night, she took her temperature and it was 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Patient reported that the nausea started on 22Dec2020, which was mild at times, but then she got to where she did not want to eat. Patient reported that the nausea has resolved but she was not entirely sure when it resolved because she had been so busy at work on 24Dec2020, and it was hard to tell what she was feeling because she was non-stop busy that day. Patient stated that she was nauseous for a full three days, and she remembered that she did not eat much on the 24th either. So Patient stated that her nausea may have resolved on the third day after her injection, but it is unknown to her what day exactly that it resolved. Patient was also experiencing the general feeling of unwell from 22Dec2020 for a few days, but stated that by 25Dec2020 she felt okay. Patient also included that her left arm was also swollen, like her whole upper arm was swollen after the injection in Dec2020. Patient stated that she also experienced redness, there was a like a red mark that was further down her arm than the injection site in Dec2020. The outcome of soreness at site was recovering. Patient confirmed that both the swelling and redness had resolved in Dec2020.The outcome of fever was recovered on 24Dec2020. The outcome of general feeling of unwell and nausea was recovered on 25Dec2020.

By Friday, I went to my PCP and they noticed that my blood pressure was only 90/58 and they were concerned so she told me that she was calling my cardiologist who said to reduce the dose of my Diltiazem from 180 mg daily to 120 mg daily. She also said to take a few days off of taking the Diltiazem. I have also had a serious increase in Tachycardia. That evening I went to the ED because I was so weak and couldn't breath well. I am also retaining a lot of fluid. The lab work indicated an elevated Pro-B-Natriuretic Peptide level of 227.

About 36 hours after my first dose, I woke up very thirsty and with "gummy," sticky eyes. My moisture-producing glands, particularly my salivary glands were significantly affected and I had, in effect, (drug-induced?) Sjogrens Syndrome. My salivary glands felt uncomfortable, perhaps because they were swollen. The symptoms have diminished somewhat in the past two weeks, but have not resolved. I visited my PCP on 04/02/2021 and she advised to see her again if the symptoms did not continue to resolve on their own. Note that in 2014, I had a similar, but more severe reaction to a single dose of Nitrofurantoin and regained nearly complete salivary gland function after 9-12 months.

Two days after receiving the vaccine, the front of my neck developed a very itchy, warm rash, my lymph glands on the right side of my neck swelled so much that it was difficult to swallow even liquids without pain, and I had a fever of about 100. The itchy area on my neck continued to worsen, and despite the application of OTC anti-itch medications and me taking Benedryl, it got larger and warmer, and the itching became even more severe. At one point my throat was so swollen, I started to think it was closing up and that I'd need to go to the hospital. The discomfort continued into the next day when I contacted Teledoc, and was prescribed an antibiotic, and prednisone, which helped. The itching is still present, but managed by regular spraying of an aerosol cortisone. And the swelling has gone, but there are slight scars like one would get from a scrape. My throat is much better, and my fever is gone.

I've tried hot baths, cold packs, hot packs, elevating the area and topical relievers. I couldn't feel the heat of the pain reliever on the affected area. This has been absolutely debilitating and I've had to miss some work because of it.

It did take down swelling itching and pain, now I am left with patches, welts, scratches on my chest and red lesions and big red patch on my left calf. Can send pics if you want. I want to know how to get rid of the patches, or when will they go away? can you suggest what I can take? I am going to go to a haematologist next week, because I do have a bleeding disorder. It looks to me like these are going to be the scars and they are not going to go away. It feels like someone took their nails and just scratched., looks like they aren't going to go away.

Six days after my 2nd vaccine I had an anaphylaxis reaction. Out of the blue while I was driving my face started to burn like acid was rubbed on it. It got really hot and turned very bright red. Then my lips began to feel like they had been sunburned badly. Then my forearms both started burning and also turned bright red. I was very anxious. Had two bouts of diarrhea. All this occurred within about a 20 minute time-frame. I chewed up 4 children's Benadryl (50mg) and the redness, burning and anxiousness subsided mostly. My heart rat was still over 100 bpm even after 6 hours. (Usually my HR is 68-70 bpm). I slept for 12 hours and the next day seemed fine. This has occurred two more times since that first time. The 2nd reaction being 5 days after that first one and the 3rd reaction being 5 days after that. Same reaction, same treatment and same outcome.

She knows she's got to move around, her Physician told her to.Caller is concerned about a blood clot. She is having pressure and pain in her chest. It has been the same. What's new is chest pain yesterday and did not feel bad, but it is noticeable. She hopes it doesn't get worse.

1st and 2nd dose- swollen glands; injection site pain in right arm; 2nd dose- shingles/shingles blisters; felt quite ill/not feeling well; second dose- extreme pain in left hand/sore arm; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 61-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), dose 2 intramuscular, administered in Arm Right on 08Mar2021 (Batch/Lot Number: EN6208) (at the age of 61-years-old) as 2ND DOSE, SINGLE for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included breast cancer (2-time breast cancer survivor), had lymph nodes removed, and has low thyroid. Concomitant medications included levothyroxine sodium (SYNTHROID) taken for low thyroid from an unspecified start date and ongoing; ascorbic acid, betacarotene, biotin, calcium, chloride, chromium, copper, folic acid, iodine, iron, magnesium, manganese, molybdenum, nickel, nicotinic acid, pantothenic acid, phosphorus, potassium, pyridoxine hydrochloride, riboflavin, selenium, silicon, thiamine, vanadium, vitamin b12 nos, vitamin d nos, vitamin e nos, vitamin k nos, xantofyl, zinc (CENTRUM SILVER WOMEN 50+) taken for an unspecified indication from an unspecified start date and ongoing; acetylsalicylic acid (BABY ASPIRIN) taken for an unspecified indication from an unspecified start date and ongoing; colecalciferol (VITAMIN D [COLECALCIFEROL]) taken for an unspecified indication from an unspecified start date and ongoing; famotidine (PEPCIDAC) taken for an unspecified indication from an unspecified start date and ongoing; esomeprazole sodium (NEXIUM) taken for an unspecified indication from an unspecified start date and ongoing. Patient previously took shingles vaccine on an unknown date (reported as number of years ago) for immunization, flu shots on an unknown date for immunization and also previously took the 1st dose of BNT162B2 (Batch/lot number: EN6200) (at the age of 61-years-old) on 15Feb2021, intramuscular administered in the right arm for COVID-19 immunisation, and experienced injection site pain in right arm, sore arm and swollen gland. Patient stated having what was considered typical, like a sore arm and did have some swollen glands with the first and second dose. It was also reported that after 1st and 2nd dose, there was injection site pain in right arm. After second dose she developed shingles, or what was later found out to be shingles, she had extreme pain in her hand. She thought it was injured or something, it was very painful. She got shingles blisters on her hand, and then also got some on her arm, the opposite arm as the injection. Her dermatologist and internist verified it was shingles. Her internist said it may have been triggered by the vaccine. She clarified it started in the palm of her hand and then traveled up her arm on the opposite side of the vaccine, she got the vaccine in the right arm and the shingles in the left arm. She felt quite ill as a result of the shingles. Her dermatologist put on Valtrex, three times a day. It helped with the spread; it stopped spreading. Her dermatologist was not associating it with the vaccine, and she was not sure she was either. After not feeling well for several days she told internist and he was confident that the vaccine was what caused the shingles. She doesn't remember for sure the event extreme pain in left hand, but it was within a few days after the 2nd dose. The swollen glands started within 24 hours, as well as, the sore arm. It wasn't anything she didn't expect. Like with the flu shot maybe a little worse, but it wasn't severe. Her sore arm was not ongoing. It recovered completely by the next day. Swollen glands came back when the shingles first happened, but they initially began within 24 to 48 hours, for both doses. After the second dose she took two extra strength Tylenol again on the first night again; she just took it once after the 2nd dose. Pain in the hand was 98 to 95 percent better. Her doctor did whole blood work up (unknown results) just to see her white count (unknown results) to rule out something else. The blisters were too small for the dermatologist to scrape and get a biopsy. She did not get the most current 2 dose vaccine for shingles, she only got one dose and that was a number of years ago, she was going to get it but then COVID happened. The outcome of event herpes zoster and pain in extremity was resolving while for other events was unknown. No follow up attempts are possible. Information about Lot/batch number cannot be obtained.

By 12:50 hands were starting to swell; chest pain; heart palpitations; pulse felt like her heart was racing very hard; non specific interstitial disease in the right lower lobe that could represent atelectasis aspiration organomia; non specific interstitial disease in the right lower lobe that could represent atelectasis aspiration organomia; blood pressure was up; throat felt like it was starting to tighten; eyes itchy; eyes itching much worse; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 61-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (COMIRANTY; Solution for injection; Lot number and expiration date: unknown), via an unspecified route of administration in left upper arm on 22Apr2021 12:10 (at the age of 61-year-old) as unknown single for COVID-19 immunization. This report was not related to a study or programme. The patient did not receive any other vaccines within 4 weeks prior to the COVID vaccine. Adverse events following prior vaccinations was first time had flu shot made her very ill, next year doctor suggested she should just have half of a shot instead of full shot to see if she tolerated it and she was able to tolerate that. She had not any other problems with flu vaccines in general. Some of the other vaccines, she was just supposed to take Benadryl with them because of some of the filler ingredients people put in things. She had previously had the 1 dose shingles vaccine, but she had gotten probably shingles probably a couple of months after that so they encouraged her to get the 2 part shingles vaccine at a later date and told her to do the pre-medicate routine like Benadryl day before, day of and at least 2 days after shingles vaccine doses and if any major problems call for help. She did not have a noticeable problem from the 2 part shingles vaccine. Some of the times depends on what filler ingredients people use. She was allergic to nutmeg which was used as an emollient oil or it's called Myristicin something or other oil; if something has too high a dose of mannitol it can cause a problem. She has a very long list of allergies and high sensitivities; if it was a high enough sensitivity it goes in allergies list, even though it may not be a true allergy. Family has lots of allergies. Regarding prescribed indication additional details: She had 3 doctors who initially advised her to get the vaccine including her primary care physician, oncologist and haematologist; this was because she was a high risk person because of various health issues. Her haematologist 2-3 months ago when she had her last appointment with him he was saying to get the shot and prescribed the epi-pen at that time; no one was having it yet, but he expected she would have some sort of reaction to it not able to be covered by Benadryl alone. Medical history included ongoing platelet disorder Verbatim: Unidentified platelet disorder, Lots of allergies, cardiac murmur, ongoing asthma, osteoarthritis, glucose tolerance impaired, hypoglycaemia slow thyroid and back and neck pain. Concomitant medication(s) included diphenhydramine hydrochloride (BENADRYL) taken for hypersensitivity (50mg taken as needed), cetirizine hydrochloride (ZYRTEC [CETIRIZINE HYDROCHLORIDE]) taken for hypersensitivity (10mg daily), fluticasone propionate, salmeterol xinafoate (ADVAIR) taken for asthma (250/50 twice daily), levothyroxine sodium (SYNTHROID) taken for hypothyroidism (137mcg-1 tablet daily), methylphenidate hydrochloride (RITALIN) (20mg tablet twice daily), salsalate, colestyramine (QUESTRAN LIGHT) (2-500mg tablets 3 times daily), sucralfate (CARAFATE) (1mg tablet 4 times daily-dosage verified with caller as milligrams and captured as provided), loperamide hydrochloride (LOMOTIL [LOPERAMIDE HYDROCHLORIDE]) (2.5/0.25 takes 2 tablets of that 4 times daily), calcium carbonate (CALCIUM OYSTER SHELL [CALCIUM CARBONATE]) (Alternates dose of 500mg and 1000mg on days takes Vitamin D), vitamin c [ascorbic acid] (VITAMIN C [ASCORBIC ACID]) (250 mg), vitamin D (50,000 units every other day taken), vitamin B12 (1mg injection every 14 days), clonazepam (KLONOPIN) (2-1mg tablets at bedtime), montelukast sodium (SINGULAIR) taken for asthma (10mg tablets at bedtime) and cefixime (FLEXERIL [CEFIXIME]) taken for back pain, neck pain (10mg tablets 3 times daily as needed). On 22Apr2021, Onset time: She had a note saying her eyes itchy at 12:20, but they were itching before that because she waited long enough to report it; so onset time was less than 10 minutes when her eyes started itching. Then her pulse; she could feel chest pain; heart palpitations; pulse felt like her heart was racing very hard. They did check her pulse while she was in their initial observation and her pulse was only in the 70s, but oxygenation was at 96%.When at doctors office less than 1 hour before that reading, oxygenation was at 98%.Recorded at 12:30 eyes itching much worse, throat felt like it was starting to tighten, heart felt like it was starting to race. By 12:50 hands were starting to swell. She had already been pre-medicated with Benadryl before this before she went down to get the Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine, she had Benadryl in her system. She had that same morning with her morning meds had taken Zyrtec and Benadryl in anticipation of getting the possibility of getting the Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine because she has to pre-medicate for vaccines just in case she starts to react in anyway. History of all previous immunization with the Pfizer vaccine considered as suspect was none. Additional Vaccines was not administered on same date of the Pfizer Suspect. Emergency Room taken from the location where vaccine administered-they gave her Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine shot had her sit for basic observation then sit for extended observation. In that time period telling them her symptoms were going on, increasing. They gave her another 50mg Benadryl even though she had already had 1 before and then called emergency room, took her down, left her in waiting area even though she had heart and chest palpitations. Physician Office seen prior to event on 20Apr2021, seen after event 27Apr2021. Primary Care Physician didn't hear anything in lungs either visit. Not admitted to hospital; seen in emergency room, theoretically she got treated; however her basic blood pressure and stuff even with what they were doing was higher than when she was triaged in the ER; blood pressure was up and something else,oxygenation level moderately reduced from when she came down to when she was just let go; however her symptoms were worse when she was leaving than when she got there. She knows what they gave her while she was there was IV of normal saline, solumedrol and IV Benadryl. Thinks they later gave her Tylenol tablets. Finally got them to do an EKG because kept saying her chest was getting worse but that was several hours after she was back there even though came there having chest pains. In her opinion this hospital was not taking reaction seriously. Not admitted to hospital even though symptoms were worse and blood pressure higher on discharge, well above her normal levels. Currently trying to get them to explain why they took so long to do anything for her. Finally did a chest x-ray on 22Apr2021:discharge papers say abnormal x-ray and they gave a couple of different possibilities as to what that might be so Primary Care Physician wrote a prescription to get a follow-up chest x-ray to make sure that everything is fine and back to normal and not ongoing or progressing or anything because they gave some strange things: what their impressions were: findings: there is non specific interstitial disease in the right lower lobe that could represent atelectasis aspiration organomia. It says the left lung appears clear; cardiomediastinal silhouette is within normal limits; impression restates non specific right findings there is non specific interstitial disease in the right lower lobe that could represent atelectasis aspiration organomia. This was from front and lateral views of the chest x-ray at 19:00pm 22Apr2021. 2 ECGs: She guesses this is what they call EKG not, relevant point is that in the notes there for the records: Says abnormal ECG compared with blah blah blah, hard to find when exactly they wrote this, trying to get the exact wording for each of the two. Machine results CED, which caller explained is what they call themselves now instead of ER, notes for MD interpretation; one done at 17:53 , other at 21:32. They both say there was slightly different readings, however both say abnormal ECG. One of the wordings that is in both. She had no further details to provide regarding relevant testing/investigations. She had to be in the ER back in the room for several hours before they would do the EKG and that's only because she said I have chest pain and standard procedure is to do an EKG, had been back there for hours, they had done no tests, the only thing they did was basic blood panel, had not done a troponin or heart enzymes test, had not done EKG that's why she knows they were not taking her seriously at all; if someone says chest pains and you don't do anything in the standard protocol they are not taking you seriously. On this Monday, 2 days ago she had gone down to pick up the records from the ER to go to Primary Care Physician appointment 27Apr2021, finally actually got to speak to someone who said they would get back to her on 27Apr2021 to look into why the EKG tests were not done for someone having chest pains. That's one of the first things you do for someone having chest pain, no matter what the source. Frustrated with them because they're still not communicating back, they had not taken her seriously while she was there; unknown if they were actually going to be reporting, as they were still trying to convince her to get the second dose of Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine. If she reacted to the first dose in first 10 minutes, second dose could be much more of a reaction. With the amount of anti-histamines in her system with Benadryl and Zyrtec and she was still starting to react in under 10 minutes. It's possible to be one of the inactive ingredients but she doesn't see anything in the pamphlet provided that she could identify at first glance as being the culprit to the problem other than 2 possibilities: potassium chloride and other is monobasic potassium phosphate. There is a possibility of her having a reaction to those because she was known to react to certain potassium products; sometimes it was the inactive ingredients. She definitely would have wanted to get the second part of the Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine series until after she was not getting the medical attention she needed after reaction to the first dose. Because ideally you're supposed to have it at the same location, that just made her very nervous at the prospect of worse reaction at location that did not take her serious the first time. She was a big fan of Pfizer thought they do a great job; she had not known it was a 2 parter, not that it should make much difference. When her Primary Care Physician was saying second dose of Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine was out of the question and she had been saying to people that she did not think it would be prudent to take the second part, they kept trying to say oh you need to get the second part, talk to so and so so they can convince you to get it, and doctor is going no. She reacted to ringers lactate or lactated ringers whatever the name is, her retired nurse sister sat and watched her getting some ringers lactate prior to surgery for her tear duct and saw her starting to break out in red splotches, patient said she was itching. Action taken in response to the events was drug withdrawn. The outcome of the events was reported as unknown. No follow-up attempts are needed; information about lot/batch number cannot be obtained.

The patient received the first dose of bnt162b2 yesterday (on 28Apr2021 at 08:15) and had a reaction to it. The site of the injection for first dose was fine, nothing around the site. On 28Apr2021, the patient experienced at first had a funny taste in mouth right away (vaccination facility said they had never heard that before; gone momentarily after first dose/went away completely); then itching inside nostril and other mucous membranes (within five minutes of receiving the first dose); by evening face was flush red (coloring part was completely gone away); face was probably a little bit puffy; even today every so often where hair touches face is sensitive and will get itchy again; did have diarrhea a lot when first got home (lasted 15-20 minutes and then it was over); right away had itching on forehead and on back and on shoulder and in other places; whole mucous membrane area down there still feels sensitive or irritated or something.

(were better now). The events did not require emergency room or physician office visit. The patient stated that it wasn't anaphylactic reaction. The patient have read online that if have a reaction in less than four hours, it was considered severe. The patient was a little concerned when got the shot and was reassured at the vaccination facility that they had not seen anaphylaxis. The patient was wondering if it was okay to get the second dose or should the caller hold off. The patient asked if her symptoms were categorized as a severe allergic reaction (in 2021) and thereby contraindicate her from getting her second dose. The outcome was recovered from taste disorder and diarrhoea on 28Apr2021, from flushing and swelling face on 29Apr2021, from erythema in 2021; recovering from pruritus, piloerection, skin disorder and sensitive skin; not recovered from mucosal pain, burning sensation mucosal, pain, mucosal disorder and nasal pruritus while unknown for the remaining events.

After vaccine, 2 hours later my eyes, lips were swollen. They said acute dehydration and my heart started pounding wildly. I went home and took Benadryl the next day I had breathing problems, 3rd day woke up with numb arm and went to ER and developed arm and left numbness and tingling that's still there today. I still have swelling in face and tongue and sores in my mouth and I have to ice myself at bedtime. and still wake up with difficulty breathing. I'm scheduled for an MRI because doctors said it's an adverse event to vaccine and I've also had hives. I will probably go back to ER because I'm having asthma issues again. I checked with my doctor about my medical records to know if I should get the vaccine and was told to get the vaccine. I have left side numbness and that's why I'm getting the MRI to rule out everything.

It was extremely itchy. On 4/11, it was on my left and right forearm and my chest and legs. Since then it has spread everywhere. By spots, I mean it starts as a spot but then turns into a big rash. There was a rash with 2 weeks and 2 days past the vaccine and since then the rash has spread all over my body. It was awful, I did not ever have skin problems. On 4/19, I went to the dermatologist who prescribed a steroid cream. On 5/11, I went to an allergist/immunologist, he also agreed that it was from the vaccine. I have no idea how long this will last since it is in my body. The itching is much more tolerable now. It itches more in the mornings but it is not such a nuisance now. It has gone in some areas but new ones do keep coming. I'd like to emphasize that this still going on. This is a rash that has been going on since it started. Dermatologist

swelling and joint pain in the little finger on left arm; swelling and joint pain in the little finger on left arm; She got a bruise at the injection site; It bled a little bit when she put it in; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable nurse (patient). A 62-years-old female patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection, lot number EK9231), via an unspecified route of administration on the left arm, on 28Dec2020 at 14:15 at a single dose for Covid-19 immunization. Medical history included environmental allergies, she has allergies and can have an asthmatic attack from cat dander and perfume, blood pressure (abnormal) and sleep (disorder). Concomitant medications included ongoing lisinopril for blood pressure, colecalciferol (VITAMIN D), acetylsalicylic acid (BABY ASPIRIN), paracetamol (TYLENOL). The patient previously took novocaine but was allergic. She got all this information when she got the vaccine on Monday at (place name) in (state name). It tells all the side effects from the first injection. She wanted to report that it is the same arm that she got the vaccine in. She has swelling and joint pain in the little finger on left arm. It says you can have joint pain, but nothing about swelling. She thought she better report it. This was her first shot. She is supposed to get the second one on 18Jan2021. She wanted to make sure she can take it. She received the vaccine on 28Dec2020. She laid around that day. Today is the first day she doesn't have arm pain and swelling at the injection site. It was the first time she has had arm pain. She has never had that with flu shot. The arm pain started within the 15 minutes she was observed. It hurt like hell until that day. She got a bruise at the injection site. It bled a little bit when she put it in. Swelling and joint pain in the little finger on left arm: she doesn't know if it was later that day. She can't remember. She really noticed it yesterday. She has never had joint pain or swelling. She doesn't have any problems with arthritis. Now her little finger is bigger than the rest of her fingers. It hurts because of the swelling. She doesn't want to take anything. It might be fluid. She has a high pain tolerance. She keeps bending it thinking it will get better. It isn't as bad, but its still swelled up. At first she thought it was better, but it is still pretty swollen. To her this is a reaction. She was thinking if she took paracetamol before, it wouldn't hurt as bad, but she can't remember if she took it that morning. She takes 500mg before bed for the heck of it at night. It helps her sleep better. She has allergies and can have an asthmatic attack from cat dander and perfume. They think she was allergic to the preservative in the flu shot, but she has never had any trouble with the flu shot since. She has environmental allergies. They thought she was allergic to Novocaine once at the dentist office. Who knows, it only happened once. She's been to the dentist many times and who knows what they injected and why she reacted that way. She felt like she was going to pass out. They don't give it to her anymore. She doesn't know what was in it. She is worried since this vaccine is emergency authorization. She doesn't want to get the next one and have a worse reaction. She is not sure if she should be worried. The events of swelling and joint pain in the little finger on left arm were assessed as medically significant. Outcome of the event of 'swelling of fingers' was not recovered, the other events were unknown.; Sender's Comments: There is a reasonable possibility that the event joint pain was related to BNT162b2 based on known drug safety profile.

The day of the shot, I was fine. But I went to bed at about 10:00 that night and slept very little. I was chilling so badly that I couldn't get to sleep! When I got out of bed in the morning, I could barely move due to severe muscle pain. I did very little all day, suffering from what felt like the flu: chills, loss of appetite, and "brain fog" such that I couldn't read or think clearly. My head felt warm, but I never took my temperature. The next morning, I noticed hives on my chest between my breasts and around the armpit of my left arm. The following morning, now about 45 hours after my second injection, I still had pink hives, and my left armpit was swollen so that it wasn't concave, as it always is, but convex. Touching my armpit hurt, and I think some gland in it was swollen. Similarly, a gland on the left side of my neck was swollen and painful to the touch. Today, now the fourth day since the injection, the hives have subsided, and my glands are almost back to normal. Overall, I am very glad to have had the opportunity to get the vaccine, but I haven't felt that sick in years.

Felt severe muscle pain and aches the next day starting about 2:00 pm . Went to bed about 6:30 that night. Woke up in the middle of night and I could tell I had a "huge lump" in my Lt armpit. The lump is very sore. No redness or hot to touch. I am going to watch it over the next few days. If it gets bigger or red, I will seek medical advise. I am guessing it is a inflammatory reaction to the vaccine and my lymph nodes are inflamed there. No other lymph nodes are swollen any where else.

bulging on her side; pain/It hurts; symptoms of acute pancreatitis; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 62-year-old female consumer received second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) on 05Feb2021 at single dose in left arm for COVID-19 immunisation at the age of 62-year-old.

Onset approx 45 min after injection--swollen eyelids and face, moderate throat constriction and hoarseness, severe fatigue, headache, brain fog for first 20 hrs, then intermittent eyelid and face swelling, hoarseness, fatigue and brain fog for the next 3 days, followed by mast cell activation symptoms of fatigue, puritis, and mild racing heart in the evening for the last two days. For the past 3 years I have been medication free and virtually symptom free. The symptoms of the last few days are consistent with those I had during the years when my MCAD was active. I am concerned that the vaccine has reactivated the hyper-sensitivity of my mast cells.

One day after vaccine severe body aches and sore arm. I had covid 19 in October 2020 and found the body aches after the vaccine to be worse than having the virus itself. Second day after vaccine I noticed lymph node in my armpit to be very swollen. This was the same side of my body the shot was given. I am worried about getting the second dose but I am still going to get it.

I am submitting this as a supplementary report to the report assigned on March 1, 2021. This is day 10 after the vaccine and my mast cell reactivity symptoms have increased by the day--internal and external swelling, flushing, pruritis, wheezing, tightness in chest, as well as pain and pressure in arm pits, groin, and ears. By late afternoon I am severely fatigued, weak, and foggy-headed. These symptoms are consistent with those I experienced during the twenty years when my mast cell disease was unstable. Through identification of my triggers and avoidance of the same, I have been symptom and medication free for the past three years--until taking the Covid-19 vaccine. It appears that the vaccine has reactivated an excessive degranulation response in my mast cells and that response is getting worse as my body responds to the vaccine. I realize that the percentage of persons who suffer from a condition like mine is small, but I would have appreciated having the information that I am submitting to you when I was weighing the pros and cons of vaccination. I know from the twenty years of navigating this disease that there is nothing that can be done at this point other than taking various H1 and H2 blockers. This vaccine appears to be undoing the hard-won level of stability achieved through years of careful lifestyle management.

Patient has allergies to several medications and keeps epipen on hand with her always. Was asked to sit for 30 minutes after vaccine. At minute 27 she started getting swelling and redness of her lips and face slightly. She normally takes Benadryl when this happens so gave her a Benadryl 50mg one dose. Her throat then became tight in a few minutes and she said that she needed an epipen because she was starting to have a little bit of trouble breathing. Gave epipen and her symptoms resolved within a few minutes. Kept her for 15 minutes. She stated that she knew she would be ok and asked if she could leave. I stated she needed to see the ER if she had any more trouble. I also consulted with her to check with her doctor about getting the 2nd dose because more than likely it's not recommended.

My arm has remained sore since the shot 4 days ago. Specifically in the armpit but aches all the way down to my hand at time. My armpit is swollen and painful. The pain goes thru my underarm down to my hand. The pain makes it difficult to sleep. Tylenol doesn't take the pain away. At first I thought the pain was a side effect to the initial vaccine, but it got worse as time went on.

cellulitis; lymphadenitis; Fever 103; Still swollen from groin area down to knee; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable other HCP (patient). This 62-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, batch/lot number: not reported), via an unspecified route of administration in the left arm on 26Feb2021 at 12:00 PM at a single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history was unknown. Concomitant medications were none. The patient was not pregnant. The patient had no other vaccine in four weeks or other medications in two weeks. The patient experienced fever 103 white posture on knee that turned into cellulitis and lymphadenitis. The patient had IV antibiotics twice within 5 days of vaccine as treatment for events. The patient still had swollen from groin area down to knee. AE resulted in emergency room/department or urgent care. The patient had no covid prior vaccination, no covid tested post vaccination. Outcome of the events was not recovered. Information on the batch/lot number has been requested.; Sender's Comments: The event cellulitis is assessed as unrelated to BNT162B2 based on the information provided. The event onset date is not reported, therefore the drug-event temporal relationship is not clear. In addition, the BNT162B2 vaccine was administered in the arm but the reported cellulitis was at knee area. It is very unlikely that the cellulitis was related to BNT162B2.

4 days after the vaccine my MG flared up. First I spent about 9 days too tired to get up. Droopy eye lids, double vision, too weak to even drive my car and problems swallowing. But then the heavy duty stuff starts. Swollen glands for 4 days with a rash, along with the Myasthenia gravis symptoms. So I think I am on the way to mend 4 days later and my glands re-swelled up and the rash came back. This happened a total of three times. Now I am at the 30 day mark. Vocal cords keep collapsing causing my throat to close when I speak. My one eye wont even open at this point. I am so weak I am teaching the dogs to use the vacuum plus drowning in mucus. Before I took the vaccine I was almost completely off my medication and now I am taking it every three hours.

Her Meniere's medicine is not helping at all, and she is not able to drive. She is really weak and went to the ER twice and they did some chest X-rays that were fine. They took blood and told her that her sodium was fine, and she feels that was wrong it should be low. She has a lot of problems with sodium. The 2nd time she went they did nothing, gave her a nebulous treatment and she could not do that as her throat was swelling up and has had a sore throat since that visit and that breathing treatment. They told her that it was something like her inhaler, and didn't give her anything else. She was then discharged after 3 hours. She is too weak to walk so is in a wheelchair.

The doctor in the hospital said that it did not make sense that she had blood clots in her lungs, but nothing in her legs. She told her that she was short winded, and he told her to report her reaction. Since being home she has been coughing a lot due to possibly the blood clots. She was told that she will be on the Xarelto for a very long time. She was also informed that she had lymph node enlargement as well.

PER PT DESCRIPTION:I got the vaccine around 11 am last Friday. Thanks to you, I was calm and relaxed during the vaccination. I was fine and was able to return home safe. However, at around 5 pm, I felt a sudden pain on my right leg. My leg felt hot, became red, and had a big lump or swelling which was about 10 cm. The leg was not just feeling hot but was also hard like board. And I could not move my leg. I was really scared, and was thinking of calling an ambulance. Thankfully, everything went back to normal after 5 minutes - no pain, no swelling, no reddish color, and I was able to move my leg. However, after 30 minutes, the same thing happened to my left leg. But the pain was a little weaker and I could still move it despite the pain. The left one was not so bad compared with right one. And a few minutes after, my left leg was fine. Everything was okay like nothing happened. I did not notice any mark on any of my legs. However, at around 9 pm, I looked at my leg and I noticed a circular trace/mark which was about 10 cm on my right leg. Please see the photo attached.

For the last three days (starting 5/31), I have had enormously swollen feet. This is very, very unusual for me. I have only had swollen feet like this after long international flights. And the level of swelling was not anywhere near as extensive as this. (I have not travelled anywhere since the start of COVID-19.) This "event" started on Monday, 5/31/21. On day 1, towards the end of the day, I noticed that my left ankle and foot was enormously swollen. There was a clear difference between my left ankle and my right ankle (narrower). And my sandals cut into my foot as they never have. We have a friend who had surgery that removed all her lymph nodes at the top of her leg, so I had seen her lie on her back with her rump against the wall and her feet above her, resting on the wall, to drain out the fluid. So I tried that. I sat against the wall for 1/2 hour to see if the fluids would drain out of my ankles. It helped. I went to bed thereafter and in the morning both ankles were smaller diameter, with the left ankle still a little larger. On day 2, my left ankle was more of a problem and both ankles were significantly swollen. My left calf was also huge. I sat for most of the evening with my feet elevated and it helped a bit. Today, day 3, I decided to see whether exercise would make a difference. Between meetings (four times today), I walked from the second story of our house to the first floor and back up multiple times (10 times, 5 times, 5 times, 3 times). This did not help. In fact, it is much worse on day 3. At the end of the day today, both ankles were badly swollen, along with both calves. My calves are hard with the impact of the swelling.

Few days after receiving the vaccine around 4/25, my mother complained to me that she was feeling very weak and tired, she was unable to hold anything down. She also had a rash. She became weaker and weaker so suddenly and unable to even drink protein drinks. She finally went to the ER on 5/4 because she could barely walk, unable to eat anything and was short of breath. They diagnosed her with pneumonia and a possible lung mass. She was diagnosed simultaneously 10 days later with small cell lung cancer however she had no symptoms prior. She received first dose chemo on 5/20/21 and had a reaction to the chemo that the doctor stated was very rare. They then had to try a different type of chemo for second dose 2 days later. She progressively got worse suddenly after chemo dose #3 and was in renal failure the day following chemo completion. She died on 5/27/2021. Her primary death diagnosis was sepsis, pneumonia and small cell lung cancer. I am reporting this for my mother because the vaccine has not been tested on cancer or chemo patients. It can and should not be regarded as coincidental. It needs to be tracked in case there are future reports regarding cancer patients.

After what the patient experienced with the first vaccine dose, she was indicated to take Benadryl thirty minutes before the second vaccine. She was however told that it could mask potential side effects. Due to the masking potential, she stopped taking it and reported adverse events. The patient reported lymphadenopathy, headache, neck pain, feeling of the eye ball outward which lasted 1-4 days, and ear burning in ear drums. The patient stated that these (unspecified) stopped on Sunday. Stated that the headache was most severe. Also stated that "I thought a severe allergic reaction was like anaphylaxis".

According to her, she had never been mask less, and was double masking. She works from home. Second vaccination was two weeks post. She could have possibly gotten it, bad flu, that would be the only time she could have.

It lasted for 3 days. She spoke to someone on 09Jun2021 in the morning. and stopped taking Benadryl, and they said she would get a call from Pfizer and she thought she would report those side effects after the second dose because they happened in the afternoon, and now she has a day off from work, so she thought to call and say what happened with the second dose. The patient stated that she works from home, but she was not clinical. Confirmed it was the COVID 19 Pfizer vaccine that she received.

For the burning in eardrums that started in the evening, at hour of sleep, at night, was bilateral, burning, inner ear pain, and it was intermittent, and lasted until 11Jun2021, and she went to the ear doctor today, who said her eardrums were ok, but she was concerned, so this was reported as not serious. For the eyeballs poking that happened at the same time as burning eardrums, only at hour of sleep at night, and woke up on the 10th and it was gone, seriousness was reported that since it was intermittent, not disabling, but was annoying.

Injection was administered very high on left arm(at joint level). It felt like a nail went in, and then she pushed in the medicine. Just the injection process alone made me feel ill. So I waited the 15 minutes before I left, until I felt safe to drive. At noon the meds started affecting me, which is what I expected. I've continued to experience arm pain, weakness, armpit swelling and tenderness, arm not wanting to work and posturing. This is day four and its just starting to feel like its coming back "online." Monday I reported to Colleague Health, who advised me to contact my physician, who I consulted via phone this morning. Physician requested I fill out Adverse Event form.

No issues during 15 minute observation period after receiving the vaccine. So I left the facility to go to my car. Then about 15 minutes later my face started to get really hot with slight swelling. Then after several more minutes throat became tight and started to experience extreme difficulty swallowing. I was still in the parking lot so I immediately went back inside to the vaccination area asking for help. I did not experience any breathing difficulties during the entire time but did experience extreme difficulty with swallowing and throat tightening. The staff did the usual checks. I was not too awarre of all the things they did but I was given a benedryl tablet which I was able to swallow thankfully. I was told my vitals were very high. Not sure of exact times but sometime shortly after the benedryl things started to fell better. The throat/swallowing started to get better. Face burning started to cool. Stayed in this area for about 20 or 30 more minutes and then told I could go with a comment that I should see my doctor about my high blood pressure. Which I explained I do not have high blood pressure and when checked later in the day it was back to my usual 115 - 125 range . I was concerned about getting the second shot later and was told to take a benedryl either just before I get the next shot or right after.?????? After checking the online cdc guidelines that does not jive at all.

After softly rubbing my neck, I felt a little bubble as if there was liquid in the bubble area. I thought maybe it was a side effect so I waited a full week. Along with the itching & swelling, there was a small amount of tender pain. The swelling still persists. On the 10th day after the vaccination (March 15th), I saw my doctor. He felt the same area sensation of a bubble around my shoulder blade. So far, there has been no treatment.

Received the vaccine on Saturday on Sunday night started getting a headache and woke Monday morning with a headache, a stiff neck and swelling on my left side of my neck, trapezoid and my dowager hump. After 2 weeks most of the swelling is gone just a slight bit. Headaches have been every day until yesterday. Went to dr the following Monday after the vaccine as was give some anti inflammatory shots in my neck as not allowed anything ( cortisone) due to vaccine. Taking Tylenol and Advil and using Valteran. Dr was not sure if from exercise or the vaccine but have been exercising throughout the pandemic. Never had headaches when my neck would bother me only hand tingling and that was not this time. The acupuncturist today said still a bit swollen and tender and feels that it is a combination of the neck and the vaccine as the vaccine attacked my most vulnerable spot. I had a massage today to to try to stretch my neck. Headache is doing better today and I can move my neck more.

When I first got it, I felt okay, but as I was walking out, I felt disoriented and had to sit down. I was very lightheaded and uneasy. I stayed about an hour because I was scared to drive. I later got chills and fever for about 24 hours. I eventually developed shortness of breath, headaches, dizziness, tightness in my throat, bruising in my legs and painful lymph nodes in my neck and arms. One day, I felt like I was having a mini-stroke. It only lasted for a brief period and then went away. That has occurred multiple times.

She got in touch with the dietitian. patient reiterated she did not attribute this to shot right away. patient reports that she was wondering if she had asymptomatic covid, and it would have been within a 3-month period that she reacted to the shot. She was not sick if she did have asymptomatic covid. There still trying to figure out why her body had this reaction. patient states that every now and then she was still cold, but she doesn't know if its her imagination and plus it is cold outside where she is. She is still on the cuff on that one. patient describes the nausea she first felt as almost felt like morning sickness on 12Mar2021-that's why she attributed it to her diet. patient mentions that the day she started feeling better, late Sunday afternoon, she wanted salty foods. Anything salty, chips, she just really wanted salty stuff.

She thinks she would feel a whole lot better if her nose stopped running. The tiredness might be from nose blowing and stuff. patient remembers the nurse was thrilled that her toes weren't purple anymore. It started going away when her blood pressure and everything came back up. patient states that she was so scared that she was dying so she remembers everything that happened. patient remembers she was in the ER still when her blood pressure improved. Treatment for her face was so red like the rough sunburn feeling and putting moisturizer on the dried cheeks. patient reports that she doesn't see any patches of red on her. Part of her has a fear that the stuff is not totally out of her system and it will happen again. patient mentions she has heard comments that this was not a typical reaction from the first one and wants to know if it is typical to be that sick from the first dose. patient reports that now her eyes just feel like she's allergic to something. She doesn't know if the redness is from crying now- it was improving, but was still there. Husband has Parkinson's and Frontal lobe dementia and she is his caregiver, she cannot afford to get Covid, she wants to get back to normal. patient reports that she did not take any of her prescriptions the day of the vaccine, she did not want to get a reaction. patient reports she had her shoulder- torn rotator cuff-operated on in 2018. If nose is really stuffed up or allergies, or Fluticasone nasal spray- she can take it 2 times a day, 2 squirts in each nostril, take it as needed. patient reports that she has the worst sinuses- when it gets too bad, she'll go to the doctor and she'll prescribe Flonase, take Metamucil or whatever she thinks will help with sinuses. she still wants to get the second vaccine. patient reports her creatinine came down well enough that she could come home from the hospital, it was still high on 15Mar2021 so they told her to drink lots of water so she does not get dehydrated.

At home I fell asleep for an hour or two, swelling started in my legs mostly but also arms and all over. They were swollen like balloons and it was difficult to bend the knee. Swelling was visable, white, no redness, Next day my face was swollen and dark bags under my eyes. I have had this swelling before and another bad episode was after surgery with anesthesia. It is still very tight and sore mostly in my knees. Not sure if it is autommune reaction or allergy.

On my way home (about 2:45-2:50), I developed tingling in my lips and my ears felt numb. I pulled into the parking garage at a hospital on my way home and by then my knees felt weak and numb too. After waiting a while in the hospital my legs began to swell and my pants felt tight from the knee down. Later the top of my head felt numb but my lips felt better. They administered 50 mg of Benadryl about 6 pm and my leg swelling went down and I felt good enough to go home by 7pm.

Patient had her second dose scheduled on 12Apr2021. She explained after the shot, her "arm was sore and achy" she said she also had "pain". She added she experienced "flu-like symptoms". She specified these adverse reactions are all gone now but her arm is still "a little sore" and she has one area with a "big circle around it and it's hard". She said it could be "swelling". She asked if her reaction was reported as side effects to the vaccine. She expressed being in a rush and is expecting her daughter soon and asked us to be quick. She said she will also consult with her HCP this afternoon. Patient stated she had the first shot on Monday 22Mar2021 and today and last night the site was red, but today in that area she has gotten a big circle around it and its hard. Patient stated she's had it before with shots and just wanted to make, sometimes she has had to be put on medicine for it, wanted to be sure its healing because it does hurt her, right in that area where the shot was given. She also stated that after she has her second shot on 12Apr2021, she would like to talk to somebody and she would like to be able to have people in her home. She was reporting she had COVID three weeks ago, would she be ok after the 2nd shot to go out? She stated her daughter thinks she needs to wait until the end of April. She verified she did receive the Pfizer BioNtech Covid 19 vaccine. Swelling: Patient stated her arm is swelling. Also stated she always gets that and today there's a circle there and it is red and hard. Also stated occurred after the shot. Patient reported that the shot hurt like heck and she couldn't really tell, she has big arms, she knows it was swollen. Reported she took over the counter medicines, last night she noticed it was a circle and it was hard there. Stated area is not swelling anymore, now just one hard red circle. Red and a hard circle: She also reporting her entire arm ached after the shot, she stated she knows her entire muscle was aching. Stated it was swollen quite a bit but now its just red and a hard circle, and it's ongoing. Arm swelling outcome: Patient reporting yesterday afternoon, she was feeling better, except that one spot. She stated it does hurt when she bends it because she had that one little area that's swollen. Also stated the swelling started later that afternoon after the shot. Reported she went for a walk with her daughter and her arm started aching. It felt like she couldn't go to the bathroom, cramps. It felt like she had a little bit of the flu, and it was from the shot but it only lasted a few days. Stated that part went fast, got a fever, other than that, just the one area on her arm. Stated she doesn't even feel sick from the shot or anything. Stated she had Diarrhea: Stated she had diarrhea in the beginning after the shot then had trouble going to the bathroom. Stated she thinks its because she has IBS and that's how her body is. She doesn't know if that's from the shot or not because that's how her body always is. Pfizer BioNtech Covid 19 Vaccine: Patient stated she doesn't want COVID again. She has respiratory problems anyway, she has asthma and a little bit of obesity. She states she was in fear of herself. She doesn't do well with hospitals and being put under with that medicine. Also stated patient knew COVID causes a lot of people having trouble breathing and she doesn't want to end up on a breathing tube where its breathing for her and she never sees her family again. Caller states it kind of scared her. Patient stated her niece and nephew, whos got it worse. She stated she went to the hospital and haven't been back. She stated she was hospitalized about 2 weeks ago, and that's when she was diagnosed with COVID, before she got the first COVID shot. About the medical history, non-alcoholic liver disease: Stated diagnosed about eight years ago, she would say the same time, about 7 to 8 years ago because she had a virus and when she went in the hospital, the virus had attacked her right kidney and liver. She stated with non-alcoholic liver disease, she is overweight, and that causes her to have issues with her liver. The last few times her liver has been okay. Pre-Diabetic: They have been watching that for a while. Stated she gets edema, swelling in her legs, well, all the time. She has had this the last two years because she is pre-diabetic and a lot of overweight people have that. She also has varicose veins so that doesn't help. Stated that was given those to help break up, because she had pneumonia when she got the COVID and she had a little bit of pneumonia and had trouble breathing. The patient was recovering from arm was sore and achy/her arm started aching, swelling/her arm is swelling and for other events it was recovering.

throat tightness; axillary node lymphadenopathy; myalgia; fever/a high fever of 103; chest wall erythema; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable physician. A 63-years-old female patient received bnt162b2 (BNT162B2), dose 2 via an unspecified route of administration on 24Mar2021 (Batch/Lot Number: ER8727) as SINGLE DOSE for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included leukaemia, seasonal allergy, anaphylactic reaction, drug hypersensitivity. Concomitant medication(s) included fluticasone propionate, salmeterol xinafoate (ADVAIR) taken for asthma from an unspecified start date and ongoing; azelastine hydrochloride, fluticasone propionate (DYMISTA) taken for hypersensitivity from an unspecified start date and ongoing; dasatinib monohydrate (SPRYCEL, NDC: 0003-0524-11) taken for chronic myeloid leukaemia from 2013 to an unspecified stop date; spironolactone (SPIRONOLACTONE) taken for fluid retention from 2017 to an unspecified stop date; mirabegron (MYRBETRIQ) taken for hypertonic bladder, start and stop date were not reported and unspecified medications for leukemia. The patient previously received Epipen for anaphylactic allergies to foods, drug, and environmental allergies. Caller was calling about the Pfizer BioNtech COVID vaccine. She has had a plethora side effects since her second dose 24Mar2021. It all started with chest wall erythema then it moved to axillary node lymphadenopathy the she got a high fever of 103 and then there was myalgia all across her torso, abdomen, and and upper back, she clarifies her trapezius area. She confirmed on 24Mar2021 the chest wall erythema began that afternoon, 24Mar2021. Axillary node lymphadenopathy began Thursday, she confirms 25Mar2021 ongoing improved. The fever began Wednesday, she confirms 24Mar2021 and it was still ongoing. Yesterday she woke up and it was 103 today it is a bit better, it is 101.2. She confirms today it seems to be improved a bit but yesterday she was taking hand fulls of Ibuprofen to try to get it down. The myalgia she noticed Thursday 25Mar2021 and it was ongoing, it was some what improved. She has environmental allergies. She had some throat tightness the day of the COVID vaccine that dissipated late that afternoon and that was for both doses. She carries an Epipen because she has food, drug, and environmental allergies. She has had anaphylactic allergies to foods. She clarified she was far from needing to use an Epipen with the her doses of the COVID vaccine, the throat tightness just dissipated. She does not think an Epipen would have helped a fever and body aches anyway. She said she takes Spironolactone for fluid retention from the Sprycel. She tried to look up to see if there was any interaction between the vaccine and Sprycel but she couldn't find any thing. Her husband was in the pharmaceutical industry as well and they have looked up available information of duration of side effects and they couldn't fine anything and she was just surprised that after 4 days of it she was still waking up with fever and still having myalgia. She was wondering if the agencies had reported or maybe they have not unmasked any data yet of duration of things reported that are listed. It just seemed extremely unusual. Caller reported fever after her second dose of the Pfizer BioNtech COVID 19 vaccine. She said yesterday she was taking hand fulls of Ibuprofen to try to get the fever down. Today the fever was a bit better but it was still ongoing. The outcome of the event fever, myalgia were not recovered, chest wall erythema was recovered on 27Mar2021, throat tightness was recovered on an unspecified date and axillary node lymphadenopathy was recovering. No follow-up attempts are needed; information about lot/batch number cannot be obtained

(didn't mention this in report) felt like walking on air. While sitting and chit chatting with other people to distract myself. Patient didn't have any anxiety. She will admit she was reluctant to get the vaccine because of my health problems. She was more concerned, she instantly got a headache with the pressure, when she was leaving, she felt her eyes feel weird, almost like an allergy issue, burning, not quite burning either. Kind of like a burning, not quite like a burning, felt like when you walk into the wind that has lots of pollen, that feeling. She didn't walk out side, she was inside when this happened, the pressure was already starting, no headache in front of head, it was in back of my skull, at top of her neck and pressure within the ears and ache and pressure on back of her head. Not dizzy, not like when you are in the hospital and they give she something and patient can't walk, or where you tried to stand and you couldn't , it was more like light headed, like walking on air like. It lasted all yesterday. As the night progressed by 10PM or 11PM her arm started to really hurt, patient took Tylenol and went to bed, took Xanax as she did and slept, woke up fine. This morning it felt like she wanted to have a headache but haven't had it since. It's almost like patient had intracranial pressure, because she had these conditions, so she read a lot. Investigation Assessment was No. States she is calling to report a potentially strange side effect. She states as soon as she got the injection, approximately within one-two minutes, she could feel a rush to the back of her head and the lower part of her head which then made her feel like she had somewhat of her vision clouded, like a tunnel vision.

Clarifies she felt a heavy pressure in the back of her head. States as soon as the injection was over, she could feel it. States she is concerned regarding the second dose because of her autoimmune and vestibular conditions. She states is caused immediate pressure in her ears. States that could've affected her and put her into a migraine, she doesn't know.

States she doesn't know and it is concerning to her. States she is doing fine today, other than a little headache that comes and comes. States it was bizarre with the clouded, not cloudy, but tunnel vision. States she does not want to release any medical records; she declines for now to provide. She states CVS administered it, not her doctor. States she is going to discuss it with him. States she doesn't want to have a worse reaction with the second dose. Caller states a headache is a headache but the pressure she felt within one minute and continuing it concerns her on the second one with the larger dose. States she is also concerned with the second dose if dizziness is a severe allergic reaction, not saying she fell over and wiped out. Patient wondering if that was an allergic reaction. States as the evening went on and she took Tylenol, it improved. States the dizziness improved as the night went on but had a bizarre feeling when she went to bed. States her arm was sore in the evening and is still sore to the touch. Clarifies that her eyes felt funny. States like walking through a stream of pollen, not that she had itchy eyes, but it felt like she had been effected by something. States it was not like a tired and burning feeling, states she can't explain it but something felt like had an allergy type situation if she has a problem with seasonal allergies. Treatment included took Tylenol. States when someone has an autoimmune issue they have a lot of issues regarding the stomach and take a lot of vitamins and supplements.

couldn't get out of the bed as the pain all the way down to her back was killing her, like it was paralyzing her; allergic reactions; Swelling in the face; hives on her back; itching that was in her back; Neck and back pain were pretty intense; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 63-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number ER8729), via an unspecified route of administration on 02Apr2021 at a single dose for covid-19 immunization.

The patient had swelling in the face, hives on her back, itching that was in her back, and, allergic reactions on 02Apr2021. Due to these, since she was just in a medical facility, doctor and nurses over there were able to inject her with Benadryl that was a strong dose, in a long needle given into the muscle and stuff. It was good enough that she got up and was sent home.

She wanted to make sure she did not get something serious because she already has rare conditions. She added she did not have any prior treatment for these because she did not even think like this was even a side effect of the Pfizer vaccine but now she was wondering if it was because she had not taken anything prior. She does not know if it was related or not and she was concerned about it. She wanted to know what she could do if these were side effects because she knew there were some people that have something to do with the spinal cord and she was not sure if their symptoms were like hers or not. She wanted to know if she would need treatment for it and if it was an adverse reaction. She added that the swelling in her face and, itching that was in her back went away the same day when she was given the vaccine. The outcome of the events swelling in the face and itching that was in her back was recovered on 02Apr2021. The outcome of the other remaining events was unknown.

incredibly horrible itching under her Fitbit; whelp; her lips had started swelling; her tongue was tingling; she thinks that it was the beginning of anaphylactic reaction; she was just tired; type 1 hypersensitivity; a little soreness; It was like heaviness on her chest; having trouble breathing; allergic contact dermatitis; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient) and a physician. A 63-year-old female patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in arm left on 14Apr2021 10:00 (lot number: EP7533) as SINGLE DOSE for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included ongoing nickel allergy for decades which was under control and panic attacks. There were no concomitant medications. The patient did not receive any other vaccines within 4 weeks prior to the COVID vaccine. On 14Apr2021, it was reported that the patient didn't have any of the normal side effects such as fevers or chills but she was just tired and went to sleep early that night. She woke up on 15Apr2021 at 05:00 with incredibly horrible itching under her Fitbit that she wears to bed. She has a history of nickel allergy and she bought this particular Fitbit on purpose because it doesn't have any nickel in it that touches her skin and she has had no problems all year with the Fitbit. The itching was unbelievably bad and when she took the Fitbit off she had a horrible whelp under a tiny piece of metal that isn't even supposed to touch her skin. She thought well if it has exacerbated her nickel allergy then maybe it is doing something else to her body. On that day (15Apr2021), she thought that she had a panic attack and upon reading some information online, she thinks that it was the beginning of anaphylactic reaction because the symptoms are the same. She was thinking that the vaccine is doing something with her nickel allergy. It had used to be bad until she got it under control and she had it under control for many years. But with the things under the Fitbit she was blaming or associating it with the COVID vaccine so she took it off and then finally fell asleep again. But when she woke up in the morning, just a few hours later (15Apr2021), the bad whelp was still there and then her lips had started swelling and her tongue was tingling so she decided to look some more on google and she thinks that this is another version to an allergic reaction. She has had panic attacks before and she knows what they are now and she has learned through a therapist on how to get past and manage them but this was different for her. It was like heaviness on her chest and it felt like something was on top of her chest and she was having trouble breathing; both on an unspecified date in 2021. Her husband knows when she has a panic attack but this one was different she can't really explain it. She asks, what is the difference between a panic attack breathing and this type of breathing and later mentioned that she also had a little soreness (2021). In addition, the physician also called to report that this patient was complaining about 2 types of symptoms. The first was more an allergic contact dermatitis (2021) which the physician is not worried about. The second was lip swelling and tongue tingling which could be a type 1 hypersensitivity (2021). The physician is more concerned about the latter and would like to know if it is okay to pre-medicate the patient with Benadryl before getting the second dose. The outcome of the event 'she was just tired' was recovered on 14Apr2021; incredibly horrible itching under her Fitbit; whelp was recovering; her lips had started swelling and her tongue was tingling was recovered on 15Apr2021. The outcome of the other events was unknown.

A 63-year-old female patient received first dose of bnt162b2 (Pfizer-BioNTech Covid-19 Vaccine, solution for injection, Batch/Lot number was not reported and expiry date unknown) via an unspecified route of administration on 25Mar2021 (at the age of 63-year-old) as 1st DOSE, SINGLE for covid-19 immunization. Patient took vaccine as she wanted to fly on an airplane and not worry as heavily. Medical history included ongoing diabetes mellitus, patient had diabetes for at least 5 years, ongoing high blood pressure from an unknown date, reporter think patient high blood pressure was more with her weight because patient was obese. Patient was immunocompromised with her diabetes. Patient had no relevant family medical history. Concomitant medication included ongoing metformin (METFORMIN) taken for diabetes mellitus. Patient has been on it for years. Reporter believed she was on the max dose that she thinks was 2000mg, but could be wrong. Patient was not eating or drinking from 03Apr2021 and did throw up. On 06Apr2021 patient was tested positive for Covid and experienced hypoglycemic shock at 11:00, renal failure and Covid fog.

Patient scheduled to receive second vaccine dose 15May2021. Reporter was told that it was a max of 42 days that patient can get the second dose of the vaccine, but that has obviously since passed. They want patient to come in and get a second first shot. When patient was admitted, the doctor thought patient had viral pneumonia already for at least a week, so it would have started about when she got the shot. Patient was better, she was not on oxygen anymore, but she still gets out of breath easily. Patients mobility issues started when she came down with symptoms. Patient had renal failure and was weak. Patient was not eating or drinking. Patient was diabetic and she had hypoglycemic shock which was what put her in the hospital. Reporter thought it was probably a cold or flu or something and Easter happened where she was not hungry and did throw up. Reporter thought it was something she ate that was bad. When she had the hypoglycemic shock reporter could not wake her and patient was in some kind of unresponsive state from 11:00 to about 15:45. Patient blood sugar was 28 when the paramedics arrived. They were able to get her responsive and transferred her to the hospital. They ended up putting her on a dextrose drip because they could not keep her blood sugar up. They put her on steroids and the number went sky high into the 500s and they could not control it in the hospital. There was a lot of stuff that happened. Reporter did not believe that patient has any lasting effects from the hypoglycemic shock. Patient sugar was back to normal and she was on her normal medications. Patient was off insulin which they gave her in the hospital, so that part was okay. Patient was dealing with Covid fog also. Reporter does not know if it has to do with blood sugar or how the virus attacks the body. Patient had multiple MRIs because they were worried, she had a stroke, and she said she could not remember anything which was not normal. Patient not eating and drinking started right before Easter and was much better. Reporter believed that at about 14Apr2021 or so patient started to eat better and have more of an appetite for food. Patient has recovered completely. The reporter did not notice the Covid fog until her mother was in the hospital on 06Apr2021. She does not remember her first week in the hospital, and then even when she was discharged on 17Apr2021 that whole next week she was still very foggy. The reporter would say she was better now. patient talks normally and was back to swearing which is perfectly her. Patient has recovered completely at this point. Patient mobility was better. Patient was not using the walker in the house today, and her balance was better. It was probably due to some of the side effects of the medicines they added like a beta blocker and other things to make sure she was okay. Regarding kidney failure started, reporter stated on 06Apr2021 patient creatinine was 3.99. Patient also had a high D dimer and were worried about her clotting and throwing a PE or something. That was mostly in the first few days around the 6Apr2021, 7Apr2021, 8Apr2021, 9 Apr2021, 10Apr2021 when they were not sure what was going to happen. The following week patient was still at 5 to 6 liters of oxygen, but by Friday night 16Apr2021 she was down to 1 liter of oxygen. Patient did not come home on oxygen. Reporter believed patient kidneys have recovered, but she did not know. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included blood creatinine: 1.47 on an unknown date, 0.97 on Sep2020, reporter does not know if it returned to 0.97, but the last number she knows of was 1.47, 3.99 on 06Apr2021, blood creatinine: 1.47 on 17Apr2021. Patient had normal bloodwork in Sep2020 and her creatinine was 0.97. Reporter did not know if it returned to 0.97, but the last number she knows of was 1.47. That would have been when patient was discharged from the hospital. Blood glucose: 500s on an unknown date in Apr2021, blood glucose: 28 on 06Apr2021.

This began maybe 3-4 weeks after the vaccine, and I did not relate it to the vaccine although it is unknown. I contacted my DR about a month post vaccination.

About 20 minutes after initial injection, my face got hot. Five minutes later, I had trouble breathing through my mask, so I notified the nurses. When I removed my mask, the nurse mentioned she could see an outline left behind on my cheeks, so I looked. OMG! My cheeks were red and swollen, and my eyes were puffy. They made me stay for an hour and a half until I begged to be let go. Initial swelling lasted a good 24 hours. I also had some of the usual stomach upset, aching, etc, that many friends experienced the first day. Even though the swelling in my cheeks diminished over time, my eyes and sinus continued to be swollen, causing debilitating sinus headaches. I called my Dr, who contacted disease control, who said I could not get the second vaccine. She referred me to an allergist. The first appt was 3 months out. I got on the waitlist (which turned out to be randomly ordered!). After waiting a month, I contacted my dr again for a different allergist, also a three month wait, and got on their waitlist. In the mean time, any time I went outside, for even five minutes, fully masked, my face swelled again to the level of the initial swelling and my eyes and sinuses became intolerable. So, there I was, confined to my house, suffering from headaches and becoming depressed, not knowing if I I could ever become fully-vaccinated or if I would have to sell my house and move into an apartment. It was horrible. It lasted six weeks and two days, and as suddenly as it began, the swelling went away (mostly). I spent the next week blowing bloody snot from my sinus, and got some relief from my osteopath (my PCP was useless). After another week, I rose to the top of the 2nd allergist's waitlist, and was able to see him on 05/28/21. He prescribed an epipen and OKd me to get a J&J, which I received the next day, 05/29/21. The symptoms I suffered from that were nowhere near as dire, although it seemed to kick up some residual symptoms from the first vaccine.

Pfizer Dose 1 (lot EN6204 IM LA) on 3/9/2021- I had flushing, SOB, metallic taste in mouth, dizziness, and lower back pain right away. I went home, I had arm pain, fatigue, sneezing, congestion, coughing and headache. At night, severe arm pain, stomach pain and felt very ill. Day 2, mild fever, lower back pain, right foot started to swelling , headache, and fatigue. Day 3, started to feel better. I went to my allergist and he checked the ingredients and realized I was allergic to the propylene glycol in the Pfizer vaccine. I still wanted to move forward with getting the 2nd dose and made a plan after my allergist consulted with other colleagues. The plan would be to administer the 2nd dose in small increments into alternating BOTH ARMS over the course of 4 hours in office so that he could monitor me better. I received the 2nd dose in office on 3/30/2021. The doctor administered small amounts over the course of 4 hours alternating arms. I had no adverse symptoms or any side affects like the first dose. The next day, I had extreme fatigue and could barely function and do my activities. The following day, the fatigue worsened, my BP was very high ranging from 170-190 and my heart was pounding hard. I did take my BP medication Tekturna and atenolol but my BP remained high around 200. I found that laying on my left side would bring my BP down. The next morning BP was back to normal and every time I would take my BP medication, my BP would spike up high. My BP reading was fluctuating and as high 221/107 and I decided to go to the ER on 4/5/2021. The ER docs thinks its an autoimmune response to the vaccine. They gave me a drug called Minoxidil which brought my BP down. I took my regular BP Tekturna and my blood pressure would spike. I was admitted and hospitalized for 3 days. They could not find what was causing my blood pressure to spike. I was discharged to follow up with my cardiologist. I had a televisit with my cardiologist on 5/18/2021 and he decided to adjust my Tekturna dosage and that has not been successful in bringing down my BP. On 6/3/2021, I did another televisit with the cardiologist who decided to increase theTekurna dosage to the max limit and that is also not working. This is still an ongoing issue and my blood pressure has not normalized. My most recent BP reading was 189/88.

Sore arm immediately after the vaccine. I was maybe tired and achy. No big deal. I moved my arm up and down a lot. This recent numbness and tingling intermittently all through my body. They could have been stroke symptoms, even though I have no stroke indicator risk. I went to ER because they lasted so long. I still have numbness that runs through all my body. I'll touch my chest and it feels normal, and five minutes later it's numb; that happens on feet as well. It comes and goes randomly, completely randomly. It is uncomfortable but have full strength and full range of motion and balance. Lips feel swollen, they started out tingly when I went to ER but now it's not tingly in lips but they feel swollen yet they don't look swollen. And that swollen feeling comes and goes, as well. Neurologist said that the best guess was virus and it was irritating the nerves. I do still have the symptoms.

first it was a prickly burning spot on my right shoulder blade that I thought must be an insect bite. It was hot and swollen and itched. I took an ott Zyrtec capsule. Next morning it was much worse and very painful, and had expanded the area affected. My sister took a cell photo and we looked at the internet and the appearance matched shingles. I had both shots of the anti-shingles virus two years previously. Then that area on the right lessened in intensity but then I developed the same thing on the left side. I went to my primary care physician and he agreed it was shingles but did not think it was related to the Covid-19 vax, but I do think it might be and that's why I'm reporting directly to you now

She also recalls pharmacist measured her BP and her husband, who was present, reported that her blood pressure was in the 140s This did not improve so she was given 0.3mg IM epinephrine shot. This significantly improved her symptoms. However, she was sent to ER. She denies any hx of recent UTI or GI infection. She denies fevers, chills, nausea, diarrhea, chest pain, generalized itching, vomiting, abdominal pain, generalized swelling, headache or syncopal episode. She denies any past reactions to vaccines. She denies current SOB and feels like her symptoms resolved. Denies hx of COPD or asthma. Physical exam did not show any recurrent signs of wheezing or tongue edema. Her SaO2 was 100% on RA and BP was within baseline 140-160s. Given episode, we decided to obtain tryptase levels. We also observe patient to ensure she did not have any recurrence of symptoms. She remained hemodynamically stable and SaO2 remained in mid 90s to 100. She was given a rx for epinephrine pen should symptoms recur though this is highly unlikely as she remained stable throughout ER stay. She was also given instructions to pick up OTC Benadryl and Pepcid. She does have antihistamines listed as an allergy but patient states that she gets tachycardic upon taking tabs, so this could just be a side effect. We will follow up with tryptase levels but even if tryptase levels return as normal, it does not mean she did not have an anaphylactic reaction to vaccine. Her clinical picture puts this diagnosis high in the differential. Teaching and instructions were given to patient and her husband. She was advised to return to ER if symptoms recur. IMPRESSION: Anaphylaxis Anxiety attack

Her daughter got her some diphenhydramine hydrochloride (BENADRYL) within that 15minutes and about 20-30 minutes of taking the diphenhydramine hydrochloride it was calming down.

Anaphylaxis; SOB (shortness of breath)/ difficulty breathing; Chest tightness; dizziness; Wheezing; Anxiety attack; Medication-induced allergic reaction; Blood pressure (BP) increased for 130/89; This is a spontaneous report received from a contactable pharmacist. A 64-year-old female patient (not pregnant) received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE; Solution for injection; Lot number: EL3249), intramuscular on left arm on 16Jan2021 at single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included HTN (hypertension), mopericarditis, anxiety and allergy to antihistamine tabs. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. It was reported that, the patient was experiencing chest tightness, SOB (shortness of breath), and dizziness on 16Jan2021. 50 mg of Benadryl and 20 mg of famotidine was administered around 14:10. Patient was still experiencing chest tightness and was having difficulty breathing. 0.3 mg of epinephrine was administered at 14:20. EMS was called. Breathing improved. Pulse Ox 100%, HR (heart rate): 68, blood pressure (BP) increased for 130/89. EMS arrived and assumed patient care. ED COURSE: Patient was seen and examined with doctor. Patient developed of SOB, dizziness, wheezing after receiving first shot of Pfizer COVID vaccine. She received Benadryl upon development of symptoms, which actually made them worse given her allergy to antihistamine tabs, but her symptoms improved upon administration of 0.3 IM epinephrine shot. Differential diagnoses include but were not limited to anaphylaxis, anxiety attack, medication-induced allergic reaction on 16Jan2021. The patient did not receive any other vaccines within 4 weeks prior to the COVID vaccine. It was unknown whether the patient received any other medications within 2 weeks of vaccination. The patient visited emergency room/ department or urgent care due to the events. The patient was not diagnosed with COVID-19 prior to vaccination. It was unknown whether the patient has been tested for COVID-19, since the vaccination. The events were assessed as non-serious by the reporter. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of events. The outcome of the events was reported as recovered on an unspecified date in Jan2021.; Sender's Comments: Based on the information provided and temporal relationship, a causal association between BNT162B2 and the reported events cannot be completely excluded. The treatment with Benadryl most likely contributed to the events as the patient is known allergic to antihistamine tabs. 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 RAs, Ethics Committees, and Investigators, as appropriate.

This 64 year old female experienced an adverse event. At baseline, she presented in a wheelchair. Within 5 minutes after vaccination, she complained of a racing heart, a new onset tremor of hands and head, and slurred/stuttering speech. She denied chest pain, shortness of breath or itching. No facial droop or one-sided weakness was observed. The patient had a history of hypertension and history of an adverse reaction to albuterol in November 2020. The patient described being nervous to get the vaccine due to her previous reaction to alberterol which had the similar effects as today's. The patient's new tremor worsened, and speech became more slurred and stuttered while we observed her. The patient denied any pain and described a similar event that caused her to be hospitalized for a week with no definitive diagnosis. Her primary care doctor had cleared her to get the vaccine. Her Vitals were as follows: BP 160/90. HR 65, RR 20. Heart sounds were regular with occasional PVC's. Lung sounds were clear No visible rash on neck, trunk or injection site. Capillary refill was normal. Mild edema in both lower extremities. No swelling of the lips. No visible droop in facial muscles. Patient was tearful and struggled to speak. She repeatedly said she was tired. She reported nausea. EMT was called and found similar vitals and O2 saturation at 100% on room air by pulse ox. O2 via nasal canula was begun. Rhythm strip showed NSR. Patient refused transport to the hospital for further evaluation. She was informed of a possible Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) could be occurring which could need a blood thinner and further work up. Patient was tearful saying her previous hospitalization was traumatic and did not want to return. EMS offered her transport to another hospital facility via private vehicle, and she refused. We offered to contact her primary care doctor and she also refused. She was concerned about the cost of a hospital stay if she signed out AMA. EMS left the facility and offered to return if the patient changed her mind. The patient's symptoms had not resolved by 4:30pm. The patient's son, by phone, confirmed she would be monitored until 5pm. She was driven home by one of our staffers. The next day, the patient told our staffer that she felt well. She said it took about 7 hours for her speech to return. She said her head, stomach and body felt better in the morning. She said she going to see an allergist as her doctor recommended. Our presumed diagnosis was a TIA related to uncontrolled HTN with anxiety.

03/26/2021 - We decided to sit for 30 minutes after the injection and were fine. We got home and had lunch and then just took it easy the rest of the afternoon. Around 2pm I took a couple of Tylenol because a headache was forming and my left arm was aching at the injection site. I also noticed a tenderness in the lymph nodes in my groin. I slept mostly well. I did wake up in the middle of the night with the 2 bones in my left foot were throbbing where the screws are. It feels like anywhere I had severe inflammation or surgery, there were intense feelings of burning pain.

headache; dizziness; chest was tight; was not breathing very well for 3- 4 days; wheezing; bad pressure in the back of her head; felt like her heart was skipping beats; heart rate and blood pressure seem to be very erratic; erratic heartrate; arm swelled up and was sore; arm swelled up and was sore; lump in throat; unwell feeling all over like she was going to pass out.; unwell feeling all over like she was going to pass out.; She kept getting an icky feeling; The initial safety information received was reporting only non-serious adverse drug reaction(s), Upon receipt of follow-up information on [26Mar2021], this case now contains serious adverse reaction(s). Information processed together. This is a spontaneous report from contactable consumers (one is patient). A 64-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (BNT162B2, Lot Number: EN6204), intramuscular, administered in right arm on 08Mar2021 14:10 (at the age of 64-year-old) at single dose for Covid-19 immunization. Medical history included high cholesterol, osteoporosis, high blood pressure, arthritis, stenosis of neck and spine, allergies to dust and cleaners (when she cleans, the bottom of her neck swells up huge); all were ongoing. She has very high cholesterol, she believes it was close to 400 the last time it was checked and that's why she was given Repatha which brought it way down, but she doesn't know if she can take the Repatha again. She also has quite a few allergies - allergic to cats, sulfa, grass and Pre-diabetes. She has a fair amount of allergies. Her doctor thinks she has some asthma because she has had a little trouble breathing at different times, but she doesn't have an inhaler or anything. She mentions asthma and allergies run in her family. The patient also stated that a majority of her life, has had low blood pressure until about 9 years ago when her father passed. States that her blood pressure had been out of control for 6 months and was then put on a low dose of Carvedilol, and eventually evened out. Concomitant medications included ongoing carvedilol taken for blood pressure; ongoing loratadine (CLARITIN) taken for allergies from 1996 (has been taking for 25 years); ongoing lansoprazole taken for acid reflux; ongoing rosuvastatin calcium taken for cholesterol since Sep2020; ongoing calcium; carvedilol (COREG) taken for blood pressure. The patient had a previous reaction to a cholesterol medication evolocumab (REPATHA) from 23Oct2020 to 23Oct2020 - her neck swelled up pretty big and she had hives on her chest, which ended up going away. Therefore, she doesn't know if she can take that again or not. The patient also previously took rosuvastatin calcium (CRESTOR) 5-6 months ago and it made her legs ache really bad; esomeprazole sodium (NEXIUM) and had the problem; lansoprazole (PREVACID) for acid reflux. She took Nexium which was a different product with different ingredients and her blood pressure was still high the whole day. States that her doctor had prescribed another brand, which had the same main ingredient as the Nexium, and told her to double up on it one night, so she did that and about an hour later she just about hit the floor because her blood pressure shot up to about 200 over 100 and something, so she talked to the pharmacist who said that this was not a normal reaction to the ingredients in Nexium, but it happened to her every time she took it. She had been taking Prevacid for a long time but then started to get an allergic reaction. Clarified that feeling like she was having an allergic reaction after taking the Prevacid at night, was something that she has just started noticing within the last month. Wondering if the 2nd dose of the Prevacid is too much. States that she still takes this in the morning but not in the evening. States that she has started taking 15mg at night from an over the counter version of the same medicine (Lansoprazole). She explained that she hasn't had any vaccines as an adult, she never has had a flu shot. About 5 years ago, she had a bat in the house for 3 days and the bat ended up hitting her in the head and forehead as they were trying to get the bat out of the house, so she ended up getting a rabies vaccine. She was wondering and hoping there were no interactions with that. With the rabies vaccine, she did have a headache. She had to get 4 or 5 shots and she did not feel well most of the time. It took a long time to pass for her to feel normal again. The caller received the first dose of the vaccine last Monday on 08Mar2021, after the shot and while waiting those 30 minutes, she felt a lump in her throat which lasted all day and the next day, but it went away. She confirms by 10Mar2021, she recovered completely. Her arm swelled up and was sore for a day and half on 08Mar2021, but that went away. She isn't worried about that. She also has a really bad headache and was very dizzy on unspecified dates. She is concerned about the dizziness. She has been driving, but about the second day after getting the vaccine, she was leaning over talking to her mom and she felt like she going to pass out. She didn't, but she felt like she was. She has been using hot packs. It's like she has a headache around her temples and the back of her head seems to be hurting. In fact, she put a hot pack there while waiting to speak to this call handler. She doesn't know if its tension or what. She didn't have hives or none of that from COVID vaccine which she was excited about, but she is so dizzy she can hardly stand. She can't get rid of the headache and dizziness. She wants to know whether or not to go ahead with the next vaccination. This is the 5th day of having this dizziness. She was thinking the dizziness was going to last for a couple of days, but its going on 5 days. Even just sitting, She states it's kind of scaring her. She was thinking it would just go away, but it isn't. Her heart rate and blood pressure seemed to be very erratic on 12Mar2021. She woke up this morning (12Mar2021) and her blood pressure was very high, but she checked it within a few minutes and was dropping low. Her heart goes fast and then slows down, but she has had problems with this in the past. The dizziness has been bothering her a lot, she has been afraid to drive. The patient had a blood pressure of 150/102 on unspecified date. On 17Mar2021, She mentioned she will see her HCP at 2:00 PM. She has already filed a report regarding the side effects she had. She filed a report and asked if she should get the second dose shot. However, she was informed if her HCP called, they may be able to provide her with more information. She was informed her HCP could call the medical line. On 26Mar2021, she stated that the first report was filed the first week and that during the second week, more not good things have been happening. She wrote down the report number from the first report but does not have it now. Since the vaccine, she has been having different symptoms; she is not sure if it is related to the vaccine but wanted to report it. She was a little concerned because she has allergies, stating she had just tried an injectable cholesterol drug and she did break out hives and her neck had swelled. States that she has not had any vaccines as an adult, so she was a little bit cautious anyway. She clarified that she did not have hives and did not have any breathing problems when she left. Stated that later that evening and the next day had a really bad headache and bad pressure in the back of her head, which she knew was typical. States that 3 or four times she felt a rush over her body and felt like she was going to pass out. That night and the next day (unspecified date), she was having breathing problems (was not breathing very well for 3- 4 days) and her chest was tight and she was starting to wheeze, and continued for about 3 or 4 days. She kept getting an icky feeling Monday and Friday when she got up and had unwell feeling all over like she was going to pass out on unspecified date in Mar2021. States she had real bad pressure in her head and high blood pressure and felt like her heart was skipping beats on unspecified date. States her blood pressure was around 152/100 on 09Mar2021. One-day blood pressure was real low, 88 over something but that kind of went away. States all that information was already reported. The next week, she thought she was feeling better and that Monday and Tuesday felt back to normal. Stated that on Thursday night (Mar2021), she was just sitting and around 8 o'clock her blood pressure spiked within a few minutes to around 184/105 and she wasn't doing anything; she couldn't get it to go down. States that she went to the ER to check everything out last Thursday. Every night since then, somewhere around 8 o'clock, her blood pressure spikes really high. Stated she then called her doctor. Stated she was on a really low dose of blood pressure medication, stating that she had occasional problems with her blood pressure in the past but it never went that high. Her blood pressure was usually in the 140's or 150's over 90 something. States that now it is much higher and happening every night. Caller stated that Wednesday night (24Mar2021) her blood pressure started to spike every 5 to 6 hours, stating it first started at 830 at night and again at 230 in the morning. She has been feeling unwell since that shot. Her doctor thinks it may be causing inflammation. States that they doubled her medication last night and her blood pressure is still going up and up, but usually goes down after a couple of hours. It is totally uncontrolled and her doctors are trying to figure it out. States that meds have been added, including Xanax and will be going to see a heart doctor. States that this has all been since the vaccine. Caller would like to know if people are reporting these symptoms. States that it is pretty terrible, and that she feels normal and then it rushes over her. States that it is exhausting and that she almost went to the ER last night. States that she does not want to go back if she does not have to. When she filed the first report she did not have issues with blood pressure yet. Again, she had the vaccine on Monday 08Mar2021 and that the next Thursday she felt like her heart rate was really high. During that first week, she felt out of rhythm, like missing beats. Her blood pressure dropped low the first week and that just one time was around 152/100 but it didn't sustain. It then dropped pretty low one day. The next Thursday, it was uncontrollable. It was around 180 over 104 or 105 and that it kept going up, but then back down to 160/90 something. Took Xanax and went to bed, when she woke up this morning it was low, but went right back up within 5 minutes. In the first couple of days, they increased her blood pressure medicine and it seemed to be bringing her blood pressure down and she was able to go to bed. The caller stated that Monday, it will be three weeks. States that a day and a half after the vaccine, her arm was not hurting but was still puffy, but not bad. States that when she runs her hands over it, it is still sore to the touch and a little swollen but nothing extreme. She was concerned that her blood pressure keeps going up and then down. States that the blood pressure started spiking on the 18Mar2021, in the evening very quickly and was very high. Stated that this was happening every night since then until the 24th, when it started spiking every 5-6 hours; and her blood pressure medicine wasn't controlling it like it was earlier in the week, even though the dose was doubled. For one day it worked good and brought it down low but then, it wasn't controlling it anymore. She stated no relevant tests, related to this event but states that in her last 2 labs her cholesterol was high. States that it was over 300 and her bad cholesterol double or more triple. States this has been going on for many years. States that she changed her calcium to calcium with vitamin D and her vitamin has come back up. When she was in the ER they did a Metabolic panel and everything looked okay. The adverse events require and emergency room visit. The patient recovered from the event lump in throat on 10Mar2021; the events arm swelled up and was sore recovered in Mar2021; the events erratic heart rate, chest was tight, was not breathing very well for 3- 4 days, wheezing resolved on unspecified date.

After my second shot I have another exacerbation of my Complex Regional Pain Syndrome with burning at sites where I have had CRPS in the past. 2- Left arm from shoulder to elbow swollen shortly after the time of 2nd vaccination. It has remained swollen 3 weeks after vaccination. Last Thursday April 1st I received my maintenance dose of my allergy shot one in my left arm and one in my right arm.

There is still pain and swelling in the left arm but range of motion is intact. Saw the allergist today. Only thing to do is to take an NSAID at this point. 3- joints in my left hand fingers are swollen. They were not swollen prior to the second vaccination.

She got her vaccine and after she received it she was okay, after 10 minutes she had a heated sensation to her neck, and chest and radiated down her right arm to her finger. Her legs from the knees down went numb. She had waves of this that would come and go. Then her upper lip got numb decided to leave as feeling it may have been anxiety. On her way home in the car she had these reactions again and called her husband and told him that something was not right and that she felt weird. She talked herself out of going to the ER, and went home. She still was feeling really weird to be ok that came and went. She called her friend who is a nurse who told her to take Ibuprofen and to go to bed. She felt better after about 2 hours, and seemed to be doing okay periodically until the day before yesterday when she started feeling numbness in her legs, arms and then her upper lip which was pretty severe. The heat from the arm is burning and burns to her upper chest and neck. Yesterday morning she could hardly feel her feet saw a report of somebody getting Guillain Barre from it. She took an Aleeve PM to go to sleep. She woke up yesterday morning and the muscle pain was go but the numbness was still there. She called the CDC who told her to contact us and to get in touch with her PCP and she was seen by her yesterday who ruled out Guillain Barre. She examined her and said that her that the glands are swollen and relays the reaction to the injection and that may be causing the neurological numbness in her arms and legs. She put her on a 5 day steroid to see if that helps to alleviate her symptoms. She does feel better today but still having some numbness in the arms and legs, and swelling in her glands.

Not positive this was caused by vaccine but definitely feel strongly that i was, as I had no previous issues...Just thought it should be reported somewhere to someone.

First dose on 3/5/21 in left arm - muscle tenderness & some fatigue. Second dose given on 3/26/21 in left arm. Some tenderness in left upper arm. About a week later (April 1) I had left upper back & chest pain (just left of thoracic spine area and forward to left of my sternum bone & left shoulder pain). The area of discomfort increased to under my left armpit. I used Tylenol every 4 hours but still had some pain. The pain was bad enough that I had trouble sleeping at night and reaching for objects in my home. I noticed an "engorged" feeling & tenderness in my left breast. Swollen lymph nodes were present under my left arm - breast was too tender to check for more lymph nodes. No fever. Wasn't sure if I should go to an ER so checked the internet & 4/14/21 Contacted & consulted with my family doctor (Dr - My Chart messages) to let her know. Found information on Web (internet) that some women are having this kind of reaction in lymph nodes so was less worried about something more serious like a heart attack). Afternoon of 4/15 and today 4/16 feel the symptoms are beginning to go away - pain in my axilla area is better, lymph nodes not as hard & tender, left breast and left side of backbone have decreased discomfort.

A 64-year-old female patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE, Lot Number: EN6208), first dose via an unspecified route of administration on 16Mar2021 10:30 (at the age of 64 years old), single dose for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included ongoing thyroid (disorder) (Unspecified thyroid condition). It is the vaccines with aluminum and bovine extract that she knows that she can't handle. Caller reported that she got a flu vaccine at work and that she definitely got the flu within a few minutes of receiving the flu vaccine. Caller reported that another time after receiving the flu vaccine, she definitely got the flu but she was unsure of the time frame. Caller reported that she did have the flu vaccine several times but that two times, the flu vaccine definitely gave her the flu. She has 3 brothers and that one of her brothers that she is a caregiver for has Type 1 Diabetes. Her brother just felt like he had to have 2 vaccines several years ago and that he received the pneumonia and flu vaccines. Her brother was hospitalized within days of receiving the flu and pneumonia vaccines. Her brother was placed in the ICU for heart patients and the medical staff at the hospital was not sure if her brother was going to live. She couldn't remember how long her brother was hospitalized for, caller stated she thinks maybe around 10 days.She knows what she knows, her 2 other brothers were also hospitalized as children. She didn't know if her brothers had vaccines before they were hospitalized but that she would bet money that vaccines they had received are what resulted in hospitalization.When hospitalized, her second brother was not expected to live. At the time of the event, her brother was only 1 or 2 years old. Her brother's infection was so bad that the hospital sent blood to the CDC and that the CDC couldn't figure out what was wrong with her brother.The hospital kept giving IV antibiotics to her brother and he lived. Her third brother hospitalized around 5 years old with pneumonia during the summer. She didn't know if her brother had received any vaccinations at that time. She just thinks the vaccines did that to them but she doesn't know that. Someone gave her first brother the information on the pneumonia and flu vaccines he received prior to his hospitalization. She didn't have information regarding the details of the vaccines that her brother received.The facility where her first brother was vaccinated with flu and pneumonia vaccines would not give her the information on the vaccines that her brother received. Caller reported that it was a really hard time to fight the facility for that information and she was shocked the facility wouldn't give her the requested information. Caller reported that they wouldn't give her any medication records or anything. Caller reported that it was a bad time for her to fight it, and that she will eventually go back and tell them they have to give her the information.Her brother that she is a caregiver for and that was hospitalized after receiving the flu and pneumonia vaccines also had the Covid-19 vaccine on 16Mar2021. Caller reported that she had been more concerned about her brother having a reaction as he has serious health issues, including Type 1 Diabetes and a heart condition.

Yesterday, 30Mar2021, her lymph nodes were hurting a lot, at least she thinks it was her lymph nodes. All of her organs that have been affected by the Covid-19 vaccine and that it seems like it moves day to day. She is mostly sensitive to UV light but is also sensitive to artificial light. She thinks that the hypersensitivity to light has improved a little bit but it's still a problem. The hypersensitivity to light was the absolute worst on 20Mar2021. She doesn't know how much she is still dizzy when asked if it was still ongoing. She added she has been taking Benadryl and ginger for the dizziness and nausea and it helps a lot.She has been taking ginger for the nausea, and if she still has a little, it's not as much.Today is an overcast day and that it's an easy day for her.

She would say the headaches are a little better but she is still having them.She is having headaches that she doesn't think she would normally have. She wasn't having headaches before receiving the Covid-19 vaccine.She thinks she did have headaches between 16Mar2021 and 20Mar2021, but 20Mar2021 is when the headaches really hit her.The chest pain is intermittent and that the chest pain coincides with when the light is affecting her. When it's UV light, more so in the afternoon on sunny days, but technically the artificial light in the evening some days bothers her too.She doesn't think her lymph nodes were bothering her before 29Mar2021. Her lymph nodes are ok this morning, 31Mar2021.Different organs have hurt at different times. The effect on organs started within minutes of getting the Covid-19 vaccine.She could feel her eyes and that her eyes felt different within minutes of getting the Covid-19 vaccine. It felt like the Covid-19 vaccine was hydrating her eyes on 16Mar2021 but at the time it felt good. Afterward she was freaking out because she was concerned about her eyes.In the evening of 16Mar2021, it seemed like there was a film on her eyes and she had a headache.On 17Mar2021, 18Mar2021, and 19Mar 2021 she had headaches that she wouldn't have normally had.On 20Mar2021 different organs started hurting.Her biggest concern was the chest pain. After looking back on it, the chest pain may have started between 17Mar2021 and 19Mar2021 also.The effect on her organs from the Covid-19 vaccine occurs on different organs at different times on different days. The effect today isn't bad because it overcast outside and that her organs are really affected when she is exposed to a lot of light.She had 2 blood tests yesterday at her primary care doctor.

Severe reaction to hair dye 30 days after receiving second COVID-19 vaccine. Significant swelling of scalp, face and eyes. Started around 9:00 PM Thursday night and into Friday at 5:00 PM as I write this. I visited an urgent care facility and a round of steroids and antihistamines was prescribed. I understand no research has been done and I am not sure how often salons or individuals will report this reaction as a possible COVID-Vaccine reaction. I think a caution to salons to recommend a patch test prior to coloring hair of clients who have had a recent case of COVID-19 or a vaccine is appropriate.

A 64-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration, at age 64 years, administered in left arm on 05Apr2021 10:30 (Batch/Lot Number: ER8734) as single dose, for COVID-19 immunization, in order to go back to normal, without a mask so she was told she had to have one. Medical history included hysterectomy, anxiety, disorder in thyroid and cholesterol. Patient had family history of dementia, had to stay home and take care of her mom who is a heart patient and has dementia. Patient had no history of previous immunizations. Patient's concomitant medication includes unspecified medications one is for thyroid, one is for cholesterol and the other 2 are for anxiety. Patient had no prior vaccinations within 4 weeks. No additional vaccines administered on the same date. Patient's symptoms started with a headache the morning after the shot (05Apr2021), was on and off for a couple of days, lasted 3 days or so for a couple days and she took paracetamol (TYLENOL). On 09Apr2021, Friday morning, patient woke up so nauseous she couldn't hold anything down. It was just bile coming up, and she had severe diarrhea and so sick vomiting that wouldn't stop, stomach pain, couldn't hold her own weight up. She got medication at a walk in clinic and that didn't stop it. She started out at acute/urgent care, where she was taken by her daughter on Sunday, 11Apr2021, because she was feeling so bad and was tested for COVID and they said if it does not get better to go to the Emergency Room and she continued having problems. It was not COVID. They said she was dehydrated and send her home to push fluids and drink Pedialyte. Monday or Tuesday (Apr2021) she was in the ER all night (she does not remember the day because all of her days are mixed up). They did CAT scans on her abdomen and ran blood work. They didn't see anything in her abdomen. Her white blood cell count and kidney and liver function were all elevated and they said it was from being dehydrated from diarrhea and vomiting. They gave her fluids and sent her home. Within another 48 hours she still had vomiting and diarrhea, it was a clear bile and a sharp pain in her side. Her stools were dark tarry stringy stuff so she went back to the ER and waited in the lobby for 9 hours. In that 9 hours as she was waiting, she felt like she had to go to the bathroom. She was then wheeled into the bathroom and started passing blood. It wasn't coming from the urethra. It must have come form the vagina, she doesn't have a uterus. There were clots. She started passing blood in her urine but most was in the vaginal area but she has already had a hysterectomy. She was passing clots and her doctor who works in the healthcare field looked at it and said they were clots. Very shortly after, she passed the clot and the pain went away. The pain was passing clots/were clots/in the vaginal area at one point went away but she still have nausea and diarrhea and they gave her more fluids and sent her home. They didn't really want to address the vaginal bleeding. Patient have not been back and was not sure if she is still dehydrated. Patient was still pushing fluids and still not back to normal. Patient's daughter told her that since it was 5 days later it was not a reaction. Patient was thinking maybe it was an allergic internal severe reaction. Patient was weighing 130 pounds but lost about 4 pounds during this illness, so 4 pounds lighter. She stated her daughter-in-law was doing research and found a blog and there are woman the caller's age complaining of these symptoms (unexplained bleeding) after the vaccine. She asked if this was from the vaccine. She stated she was so sick that if there is even a chance then she doesn't want the second dose. She asked if this is a coincidence or has it been reported. She stated she is trying to make a decision on if she should get the second dose because she heard other people have symptoms and take the second shot. The outcome of the events passing clots/were clots/in the vaginal area, headache, a sharp pain in her side, passing blood in her urine, passing clots/were clots/in the vaginal area/vaginal bleeding was recovered on Apr2021, while for the other events, it was unknown.

48 hours after vaccine awoke with sore throat and cough. Next day developed fever and cough was worse. Following day developed severe shortness of breath with wheezing, fever, and low oxygen saturation (90%). PCP's office had me call ambulance and go to emergency. Also had high blood pressure and glucose. In emergency received Atrovent inhaler and Prednisone. 24 hours later was fine. ER diagnosed as URI but this was much more severe than a URI and resolved too suddenly to be a URI. I believe it was a reaction to the vaccine, especially based on timing and symptoms.

Achenbach Syndrome, a rare, untreatable condition, according to the internet. My doctor was unfamiliar with the syndrome. My husband and I had already figured out the name of the condition. I took that information with me to the doctor on 5/25/21. Today (5/27/21), I met a former nurse who immediately recognized the syndrome. She said it was seen rarely. Seeing my finger gave her goosebumps! Severe pain in fingers as blood vessel pops (sharp burning, stinging, tingling). Fingers swells and lose mobility, movement is severely limited/restricted. Usage of the finger aggravates the problem and causes it to last longer. Condition persists in varying degrees for at least 3 days. This happened to my right index finger 5 times since the onset. Each time it seems to be worse. It also happened to my left index fingers but it was less severe and shorter lasting.

Caller stated she had a lot of issues with the first dose but not as bad as second dose. The second dose almost killed her and affected her brain and speech. She had the Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine, and experienced a bad reaction after both doses. Caller asking what was in the vaccine that could cause her bad reaction. She never had a reaction to any vaccine. She had allergies and autoimmune disorder. Her arm was so sore/ sore left arm the first time. It was difficult to get in and out of car for 3 weeks, but she recovered completely. She helps the handicap people, so she had it put in her left hip/ sore left hip. It was sore for about 2 weeks, but she recovered completely. Caller added she needed to decipher what was written on the vaccination card. She wished they would write better. She used her glasses. Caller took no pharmaceuticals, just Benadryl for allergies when need. The Hospital where she received her vaccine was used and created by another facility, but not a an offsite facility. But for them to use also. Caller added she was cured of everything she had from the Therapy. After the second dose: She started same day as vaccine on 08Apr2021.

That caused a severe headache that started on the 3rd day and lasted 4 days. It was really bad on the 1st day and she wanted to go to the Emergency Room. She took Benadryl and Ibuprofen, and a Doctor told her she shouldn't take Ibuprofen because of Covid. She was allergic to Tylenol and Aspirin, basically any pain killer, Percocet and Darvocet, Everything except Ibuprofen. Caller did not have the bottle to provide details.

Her headache peaked on the 4th day, and she took the Ibuprofen and was better the next day. Throat swelling started on the 5th day and lasted and was still causing her difficulty pronouncing words. Her tongue felt swollen. Her cognitive issues started the 4th day of her headache and was intense. It continued, but was much, much better. She did her normal protocol, and had gotten by, but it was not normal. Her organs felt swollen and the doctor did a test.

But with this experience she literally wanted to hurt someone or kill herself, and no it was not normal. She was so cranky. She was sure it was the swelling in her brain. With her food allergies she got swelling, intense depression, suicidal tendencies, and a fight or flight response. She wanted to leave her life, it was scary. Caller added she did not feel like this now. For the Vaccine Indication: Caller added that people that need it most, didn't want it. Because of her autoimmune disorder, she was a long huller and she had died 6 times, so she was willing to try it and take it and deal with the side effects. She was hoping it would not cause any. Her boyfriend died at Christmas. After 24 hours he was dead. He had a mild sepsis from a virus. He has Autoimmune disease. If she got Covid, she didn't want to end up like him and see her arms and legs amputated. Caller asked if anyone else had reported symptoms she had experienced.

Caller states she has had issues with bronchitis and went to a pulmonologists and cardiologists and she has been put on 27 different medications. Caller states after all of these things going on she is not sure if she should receive the second dose. Caller states one doctor told her she should not receive the second dose and one doctor told her she should. Caller would like to know if she should receive the second dose of the Pfizer COVID vaccine. Caller states her doctor doesn't want to tell her what to do because she thinks he is afraid that she might sue him. Caller thought that by calling Pfizer she would get some advice but she is getting nowhere. Caller would like to know if she can receive the Johnson and Johnson Covid vaccine as her second dose instead of receiving the Pfizer COVID vaccine? Had the vaccine 9Mar2021 and is just recovering now. Last week, she was finally feeling like herself. She had some medical conditions that put her at risk. She is 65 and is afraid to get the second shot but is also afraid to not get the second shot. Her doctor thinks it is too coincidental that this happened right after the vaccine. Has been talking to a lot of doctors. Is afraid to get the second vaccination. So now, she is just trying to figure it out. It really knocked her out, she has had 27 medications, she's been to the ER 3 times, been to the doctor 7 times, it just really knocked her out, they first thought it was a heart condition, then a lung condition. Has been having rashes and all kinds of stuff. Is afraid to not get the second dose. One of her doctors recommended the Johnson & Johnson, but is that safe, no. Weight was about 200 pounds. Started 5 days after the vaccine. Fever: On Sunday, started to get a fever. It was on and off all day. She thought it was a normal reaction and didn't think much of it. It was weird. It would be like 20 minutes and then fine, and would be off an on all day. It was a low grade fever, never more than 100. she felt hot and cold all day. It was most of Sunday and stopped in the evening. Treatment: none. Swelling and pain under breasts, under armpits and in lymph nodes: Started Monday. Breasts were tender as well as if like she was having a period. There was pain underneath her arm and in the lymph nodes. Lasted for 2 days. Treatment was none. Felt like bronchitis: On Tuesday, it started to get what she thought was bronchitis. She has a propensity to get bronchitis. She hasn't gotten sick in 2 years. She immediately went to the doctor. This went on for 2 months. Treatment: They prescribed Prednisone, nebulizers and antibiotics which she finished everything 3 weeks ago. She couldn't sleep and had to sleep sitting up, she couldn't lay down, it started right away when she felt she had the bronchitis. Rash up and down and all over her arms: She then developed a reaction and had a rash up and down her arms, all over her arms. Felt the bronchitis symptoms right away. It was the weirdest thing and she couldn't lay down. Every time she would get up, she couldn't breathe. Went to the emergency room 3 times but was not admitted. At one point, she had a rash all over her body. Her doctor thought it was MRSA. This happened a month into all of this. She got the vaccine 8 or 9 Mar 2021. This rash occurred some time in mid April. When it started, the rash was everywhere in her body. It was so severe, that they thought it was MRSA. Gave her another bout of antibiotics. She had sores that were opening all over her body. She then went to the Emergency room and they treated her there. The other time she went to the emergency room because she couldn't breathe. She had to sit in a Lazy boy chair for 2 months. The pulmonologist and the heart doctor couldn't find anything. When they though it was bronchitis, they treated her for 2 months with Prednisone. She got Candida's from the Prednisone. They put her on 27 medications total. The pulmonologist said it was not the lungs, it was the heart. She was put on medication to slow down the heart rate. It had been running about 119. The medication she was put on was Metoprolol Tartrate 25mg. It slows down the heart rate, it has been so high. She was put on the medication 23 Apr 2021. It went so high. Her oxygen has been good. Her heart rate was never slowing down. She is still taking the Metoprolol, her rate is running like 118 and 108, it never slows down. The pulmonologist said it was not the lungs, its the heart and she is going to see him tomorrow for a follow up echo. She is so sick from so many medicines. Is still experiencing a lot of tiredness.

The reporter is a nurse practitioner and is calling about symptoms she is experiencing after receiving both doses of the Pfizer covid 19 vaccine. She received her first dose on 19Feb2021 and her second dose 11Mar2021. At the end of April, she experienced pain, swelling, hard mass in her right lower leg. She was diagnosed yesterday with erythema nodosum which is considered both an autoimmune disorder and an inflammatory disease. She is aware that some vaccines can cause autoimmune disorders. She wanted to know if people are filing reports on this so others can find out what odd things are being caused by the vaccine. She expressed frustration as a practitioner not being able to more easily find information. She has heard of people who already had covid getting this condition, wanted to know if its from the vaccine. As a nurse, she has been tested every two weeks and never had a positive test. She said when her symptoms first started, if she had known, it would have been easier to receive a diagnosis. She got the vaccine and right after had an increase in her blood pressure but it went back to normal. She was just diagnosed yesterday with Erythema Nodosum. She states that this is an autoimmune disorder that people who have had Covid may get; because of where she works, she has been tested for Covid every 2 weeks and she has never had Covid but has received both doses of the vaccine. It was reported the Increased blood pressure was from Mar2021 to Apr2021; the Erythema nodosum was Apr2021 and ongoing. Reporter seriousness for Increased blood pressure and Erythema nodosum was not serious. Erythema nodosum was reported as worsened. Information about erythema nodosum: patient stated that this was costing her a fortune because she can't work and has had to pay for all these tests and medications; the doctors have been treating her with a number of different medications because they didn't have a diagnosis until yesterday. This has been ruining her life. It all started the end of Apr2021, she was having pain in her right lower leg. Then it felt hard like a rock, like a mass was in there; it was just so painful. In May2021 she had an ultrasound looking for a blood clot in her leg but it was negative. Then she had a MRI on 10Jun2021 looking for a mass in her leg, but that was also negative. She was on clindamycin in between the ultrasound and the MRI. Then after the MRI, she was put on prednisone, but it didn't help so she was put on Keflex, then she was put on ketoconazole. She finally saw a Dermatologist yesterday and got a diagnosis and he put her back on the prednisone for 1 month. She has also used heat/cold/support hose to try to help with the pain and swelling. States that her right leg is swollen and red, and she is worried that she may lose her leg. It's been getting worse over the last 3 weeks; it's painful, enlarged and hard. She does not have the Lot/NDC/Expiry for the clindamycin, prednisone, keflex, and ketoconazole that she took prior to diagnosis. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) right leg: no mass found on 10Jun2021; Ultrasound right leg: no blood clot on May2021. The outcome of erythema nodosum was not recovered; of increased blood pressure was recovered on the end of Apr2021; of other events was unknown. Follow-up attempts are needed. Further information is expected.; Sender's Comments: Based on the current limited available information and the drug-event temporal association, a possible contributory role of the suspect product BNT162B2 to the development of event of erythema nodosum which is considered both an autoimmune disorder and an inflammatory disease cannot be totally excluded/assessed. The case will be reassessed if additional information becomes available.

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.

Medical history included muscle damage (leg and knee damaged in a fall), surgery (before her pfizer covid vaccine, had last surgery where she gained 15 pounds and laid in bed and kind of gave up), gained 15 pounds, fall (leg and knee which were damaged in a fall prior to the pfizer covid vaccine), bulging discs (was disabled because of the bulging discs and muscles on her shoulders up to her neck), damaged neck and broke her femur from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing and urinary tract infection from an unknown date and ongoing sinus.

It was reported that on 04Mar2021 at 14:00 pm the patient received the first dose of vaccine and stated that and in the evening of 4Mar2021 at 08:00PM she started to notice the swelling of her leg (it swelled especially on her leg which had a knee replacement year back). It was like water was pumped into her leg. She slept really late that night and when she woke up (she says she normally sleeps 4 hours at a time so it isn't necessarily the morning after), she developed headache which was more like migraine. She also noticed that her hand, arms, and fingers are swollen. It got better throughout the day and it got worse again in the evening. By that time, she also had clear liquid dripping out of her nose. She strongly suspects this reaction came from a drug. She also felt fatigue (feeling bad all over) and she does not want to describe it as something she experienced with the flu. She said that was hurts less than the flu but she couldn't walk and she can barely move. On Saturday 06Mar2021, she had muscle pain which started in her injured leg and she described the sensation as "light burning". She also felt like something was moving inside the muscle. On Sunday on 07Mar2021 at 03:00 am, she started to have deep cough. When she lay down at night, she could not breathe, and she had to stack 3 pillows just to breathe. She described the difficulty breathing as something stops in her chest making her not breathe. She was better yesterday on 16Mar2021 and had brain fog and she also could not eat and yesterday she was throwing out. Her main concern was the difficulty in breathing. She would consider her adverse events to be medium instead of severe. She would like to know if these are adverse events associated with the vaccine. She also would like guidance if she should take the second dose of the vaccine. Reporter stated that before her Pfizer COVID Vaccine, she had her last surgery where she gained 15 pounds and laid in bed and kind of gave up and her weight varies and she does not know what was going on with her because her weight depends upon her activity with her knee; states her weight average was 150 pounds and throughout she has gained about 10 pounds and last weighed 163 pounds and knows that was not right but the weight has been up and down and stated before she got on the scale and her weight would be less and she is trying to watch it and kind of gave up after breaking her leg and was stuck in bed last year but has pretty well recovered from breaking her leg; states she needs a knee replacement and it is hard to walk and she has to go today to get a shot; no further details provided by the reporter. Reporter stated that she has not had this type of reaction before and mentioned that got her first dose of the Pfizer COVID Vaccine on 04Mar2021 and the first day she got the shot at 2:00 pm that evening she went to her daughter and states she does stay laying down a lot due to her leg and knee which were damaged in a fall prior to the Pfizer COVID Vaccine, and she stays off her leg a lot. She mentioned that on 04Mar2021, she started to take her leggings off and looked at her legs and they were so swollen and were swollen everywhere which was not ongoing and only lasted about a day. Caller states within a few hours that night of receiving the vaccine she had a severe headache which was more like a migraine type and she knows this was a common side effect with this vaccine so she did not put much attention to the headache and in next morning her headache was worse and she got it under control because she usually uses vaporizers which are those things she puts on her table with water and lavender and peppermint and this got rid of the headache. She mentioned that the worst thing she had was that night of vaccination where her fingers and arms and both hands were so swollen with the fingers of both hands being the worst and she could hardly move her fingers and it was not normal swelling and stated that she knew what normal swelling looks like and this was fluid not just in her joints of the fingers hands and arms; states her hands were worse and lasted a day and this has completely resolved. She reported that that the swelling was the worst in the evening and her symptoms then started to change and she probably had swelling the whole day but getting up and moving helps and a little bit in the evening the swelling was worse. Reporter stated that she takes medications for her sinuses and her sinuses do not stop up but she had her sinuses where they felt like they were draining after the vaccine and this was different like a clear liquid coming out and was constantly going down her throat and nose and it was unreal and mentioned that she kept wiping it and draining and blowing her nose and it was not normal drainage; states the sinus drainage was not ongoing and lasted about a day. Caller stated that on the Friday evening after the Pfizer COVID Vaccine, she started feeling bad all over her body and that maybe a common symptom too but she felt really bad and her body ached and that did not start until the next day and she felt bad all over. She reported that she has been told that the aching is like the flu but this was not flu it was an ache and was different than when you have the flu and she felt really drained and had heavy fatigue mixed in with that; states it was just like she was really sick and got an infection but she did not have an infection and had just gone to see her HCP the day before and the HCP did a test that he ran and she had no infection in her bladder. Reporter stated that she does have bladder problems but had no symptoms the day before and went in to the HCP as this was a different matter but her bladder was clear of infection and she had a urinary tract infection the month before and went in to the HCP to make sure the urinary tract infection was completely gone and she had no infection. She stated that the Saturday after 04Mar2021, the pain got worse and she probably noticed the pain was in her muscles; states she had muscle pain off and on before the vaccine because she has a fused back and other things that did not affect her back but when she fell she had muscles and her leg that was damaged and after 04Mar2021, she hurt all over in her muscles and it was more severe and was weird and a burning muscle pain she could feel moving and it was light burning; states in her muscles that were damaged when she fell previously, they had to cut through the bottom muscle so she has muscle damage from that and when she fell she had an MRI. Caller stated that the muscle pain she has had after the vaccine was something different in her leg; states before the vaccine she had tearing below her knee from the fall and it kind of hurts when she walks. It seems the pain hit her muscles and affected her muscles that were damaged in her body where she felt the pain and felt the pain go in when she hurt, and the pain moved up when she felt it like something traveling through her leg. On Sunday, the pain lasted all day and this was a bad day or two where her muscles probably still hurts and she did not feel any better and then the day before yesterday actually felt like a fog in her head and felt sick the whole week; states her headache was really bad and was back and she started getting a cough and by Sunday at 3:00 am, she could not breathe and started having trouble laying down and still cannot lay but uses high propped pillows and felt like there was something on her chest and she could not breathe and she still cannot breathe. She stated that she has a pain pump that controls her pain; clarifies to state she was a 13 year pain patient and the pain pump does not control her pain much anymore but it does control the pain in her neck; states this was her 2nd pump that was implanted on 27Aug2018 and has serial number NGP615696H and model number 8637/20 but her HCP changed that and she has no information on her 1st pump and states she has no medication name, lot, expiry date or NDC to provide for this 2nd pump. Caller stated for the Pfizer COVID Vaccine, she has her patient card with lot number and the date she got the first dose on 04Mar2021 and the date for her 2nd dose was scheduled for 26Mar2021 at 1:00 pm. Caller stated with her 1st dose she had these pretty bad reactions. She mentioned that Caller states she was disabled because of pain and the worst reaction to the vaccine she has had was when pain hit her muscles. Caller stated prior to the Pfizer COVID Vaccine, she had muscles that were damaged when she slipped in water at a medical clinic and should have gone to the emergency room at that time and her HCP thought her muscles were affected because she broke her femur at that time and has been through hell before with her knee. Caller stated that she left the HCP office and had a urine test and asked about the Pfizer COVID Vaccine and she does not know if the HCP knows she had the vaccine and stated that the HCP said they are giving out the vaccine and sent her over there to get it and she did not think to ask questions before the HCP sent her. States she also goes to another HCP; no further information provided.

On February 11, 2 days after my vaccination, I woke up with pain and swelling under my left eye. Over the next 2 days, the left side of my face under the eye experienced redness and swelling then subsided and localized into a large stye on the lower left eyelid. Now, a week later, the stye is still red and pus filled but has improved and is slowly resolving. I would not normally think that this affliction had anything to do with getting a vaccine but it does seem strange that something like this could occur in someone who is very healthy and and does not experience any side effects from vaccines. The last time I had a stye was in my 20's and it wasn't nearly as bad as the one I am now experiencing. Since the Covid vaccine is so new and however unrelated this coincidental affliction seems, I thought I should report it regardless.

She did get a bump on her head concussion in December. One day last week she just stayed on the sofa with a blanket due to feeling poorly. 3 days ago on her back by her shoulder blade an area has been really sore. She did take some Tylenol for the back pain which did not help so she stopped this. She did not call her doctor. The rash is still there but not as intense. It has not itched, but she has felt it.

The EMT checked her out and asked her to stay longer and she did and after about 5 more minutes the same thing happened again. These episodes lasted about 1 minute and she had dizziness with it. Also she did not have any further episodes and she stayed a long time. Her concern was whether this was indicative of an allergic reaction and should she still get the second dose.

The patient arm was sore and swollen that was all now.

On March 19 around 8 pm my lymph nodes under my arm started swelling and were very painful. They stayed like that for for 3 days before starting to go down.. The injection hurt when it was given. The first dose given in my left arm did not hurt 2/22/202. My lymph nodes in my neck swelled a little, but never caused pain. I had a mammogram on 3/18 and a place on my left breast/ lymph node has shown that it could be malignant , but I have to go for more tests to check it out. I have since read about this happening after the Covid 19 vaccine. The nurses at hospital said to report things like this since the vaccine is still so new, to help know what is happening. So that?s why wam. Thank you!

A 65-year-old female patient received the 1st dose of bnt162b2 (BNT162B2, Lot Number: EN6198; Expiration Date: Jun2021), as single dose in left shoulder on 04Mar2021 at noon for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included Hashimoto's disease from May2012 and ongoing (autoimmune condition), ongoing undifferentiated connective tissue disease (UCTD) (autoimmune condition, unsure when diagnosed, started with polymyalgia rheumatica, then it went to rheumatoid arthritis (RA), then it went between Lupus and undifferentiated connective tissue disease), hospitalization: she had to go hospital twice in last 4 months, one was for Amlodipine which has polyethylene glycol and another time for Lisinopril as another blood pressure medication, she had 2 mild anaphylactic reactions in the last 4 months from amlodipine and Lisinopril, patient thought they all have PEG in the ingredients; underwent colonoscopy unknown results. There were no concomitant medications. On 04Mar2021 the patient experienced anaphylactic reaction, gasping for air, headache, dizzy, could not think clearly/her thinking was not clear, tongue swelling, swollen lips, throat closing/restriction in her throat, confused , sensation in her chest, weak, fatigued, she had a full tongue which effecting her talking, tickle in the throat, tingling in her lips. Course of events was as follows: The patient drove two hours to get the vaccine. The patient was vaccinated on 04Mar2021 at noon. The reaction started immediately, the caller had a severe headache within seconds, a little bit of sensation in her chest. The patient's thoughts were getting mixed up, she was not thinking clearly. This was one of first things that happened. The patient stumbled a little bit and the nurses were there around her and said she better sit down now. Then the sensation in her throat was starting to feel like it was closing up, her lips were swollen; so she would say she was a little bit confused. The patient started getting dizzy and her thinking was not clear, her tongue swelled, she had a full tongue which effecting her talking, she was gasping for air, she needed a moment to regulate her breathing. In regards to swollen lips she added at first she had a tickle in the throat, tingling in her lips, restriction in her throat, then she started slurring her words before the ambulance got there. On site they responded and watched her because she did not know if the symptoms were going to get worse. The paramedics gave the caller oxygen and an IV, since she had a mild experience she wanted to see what she did not take any medications before taking the vaccine so she could see what it would do, she did not take an ibuprofen or Tylenol. Patient commented, she knew it was not recommended, but some people do it. The patient mentioned started speaking very badly and very fast, she started gulping for air, and was informed the histamines are hitting her. She felt like she was going to faint, she thought if she was able to count back from ten she was going to be knocked out. Once she counted back she started to feel better. Like she would not faint. She did not faint often. She mentioned counting backwards from ten when getting a colonoscopy or something like don't get passed five and then knocked out, so she knows the sensation that can occur. After 1.5 hours they decided to call the emergency number and that was when the ambulance came. The ambulance service was the one who did everything for the patient. Because the patient got in the ambulance, they required her to go to the hospital, she was in a bed in the hall, by the time her doctor had looked at her, her throat had opened up and was feeling reasonably well after an hour an half. Confirmed she was not admitted just in the Emergency Room. On 04Mar202 the patient was at the hospital and was gasping for breath. The patient was on an IV and they gave her 125 mg of Solu-Medrol, 50 mg of Benadryl, and 5 mg of nausea medicine, phedrol the caller thought it was called. They did a good job and that helped the patient down from the most severe symptoms and she wanted to report her symptoms. The patient has been looking around and she thought this reaction it was from the polyethylene glycol. She mentioned historically she had a minor reaction. She had to go hospital twice in last four months. One was for Amlodipine which has polyethylene glycol and another time for Lisinopril which is another blood pressure medication. She confirmed she visited the emergency room for all 3 of these cases. The patient was still very confused on 09Mar2021 and over the weekend, she had to rest, she was weak and fatigued. On 09Mar2021 it was first real day she went back to work. She worked and asked her brother to watch out for her. On 10Mar2021 she was starting to feel a little bit better as regarded anaphylactic reaction, she has recovered with residual effects from the anaphylactic reaction. Confusion was improved but stull a concern. The outcome of anaphylactic reaction was recovered with sequelae, of headache, swollen lips, confused was recovering, of gasping for air, dizzy, could not think clearly/her thinking was not clear, tongue swelling, throat closing/restriction in her throat, sensation in her chest, weak, fatigued, she had a full tongue which effecting her talking, tickle in the throat, tingling in her lips was unknown. Patient asked if there was a conclusion about the PEG and her anaphylactic reaction. Her second dose was scheduled on 25Mar2021. Patient stated that her PCP and the CDC recommend to not get the second dose. Caller wanted to know if the anaphylaxis could be worse in the second dose. The patient wanted to know if she should she get the next dose. She was very concerned about COVID as well but did not know if it's worth her risking her life. Patient wanted to know if she can get the Johnson and Johnson vaccine after a certain amount of time after receiving the Pfizer COVID 19 vaccine, caller cannot get the second dose of the Pfizer COVID vaccine due to a reaction. As of 12Mar2021 patent stated she does not wish to be contacted any further. A Product Complaint was filed.

About 20-25 minutes after receiving the shot, my left cheek began to tingle. In the days that followed, the left side of my face, especially my cheek felt like I had razor burn. My left eye became dry, but that went away, as did scalp itching. I began to produce more saliva on the left side of mouth. My face felt heavy, my upper jaw at times aching, but mostly my lower jaw. The inside of my left ear hurt occasionally along with upper jaw pain. My left lymph node became swollen, as did the left side of my face. My doctor on Zoom said these were symptoms of Bell's Palsy, though I did not have the characteristic drooping eye or mouth of Bell's Palsy. My symptoms have abated, but persist five weeks after administration of the shot.

I wish to inform you that I had a very severe allergic reaction after receiving the first dose of the Pfizer vaccine. I had a dreadful swelling on my face with totally red skin and burning in my face. At first, I did not relate it to the vaccine but thought it was something very rare. I went to my dermatologist and she gave me a number of remedies, including cortisone and other medications. The swelling went down a bit and I received the second dose of the vaccine. At that point the allergic reaction was much more severe, just like the first time but much stronger. I went to an allergist and he confirmed that it was a reaction to the vaccine. It is an extremely rare case because I know many people who have received the same vaccine and no one has had anything happen to them.

Within 5-15 minutes, neuropathy in both hands progressed significantly from just the fingertips to encompassing the full fingers and palms, with feeling of edema, but no clear edema. Neuropathy in the feet, pre-vaccine included only the toes and balls of the soles, bilaterally; shortly post-vaccine the entire soles were involved. The evening of the vaccine, it was noted that tinnitus was worse than prior to the vaccine, (not sure when started, as noise levels were high enough to make that unclear. That evening, when listening for tree frogs, it was noted that they could no longer be heard, although husband had no problems hearing them. Neuropathy has improved, but is not back to pre-vaccine baseline. Increased tinnitus and loss of ability to hear tree frogs continues.

A 65-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection), via an unspecified route of administration on 07Mar2021 09:40 (Lot Number: EN6199) (at the age of 65 years old) as single dose (dose 1) for COVID-19 immunisation; and methylprednisolone (MEDROL), via an unspecified route of administration from an unspecified date to an unspecified date at short term increase of the Medrol dose (as reported), from unspecified date to an unspecified date at 2 mg (for four years, as reported), then from unspecified date to 10Mar2021 at 6 mg, then from 11Mar2021 to 13Mar2021 at 8 mg, then from 14Mar2021 to unspecified date at 6 mg, for Lupus. Medical history included diagnosed with asthma initially exercised induced and now it is seasonal and was diagnosed years ago (states she has not had to use her Albuterol inhaler that much now because it is seasonal but she is doing more outside and is allergic to outside things so she tends to use the inhaler more if needed), right leg paresthesia (she did have a right leg paresthesia and had that before the vaccine), autoimmune disorder, thyroid disorder and patient stated that she has lost height. Concomitant medications included salbutamol (ALBUTEROL HFA) taken for asthma; levothyroxine sodium (SYNTHROID) taken for thyroid disorder; paracetamol (TYLENOL); and diphenhydramine hydrochloride (BENADRYL). The patient had a history of Lupus and is on maintenance Medrol 2mg for four years and before that she had a short-term increase of the Medrol dose with flares of her Lupus. She had the Pfizer COVID Vaccine 1st dose and then three days later on 10Mar2021 at 16:00, she thought what is going on and had her tongue tip so irritated and a strange feeling that it was a tiny bit edematous, her lower lip was full tingling. She had mucoid eruption on her lower lip and saw then that the next day thought it was swollen but it wasn't swollen. She had eruption on her tongue, had a rash to her face, neck, chest, back, shoulders and thighs. The rash was dispersed and there is a red raised rash with Lupus called Livedo reticularis and that is usually on the thighs but this rash on her was below her thighs and came up and dispersed between all the same rash elsewhere on her body. The healthcare professionals were closed so she took increased Medrol steroids and her Albuterol inhaler and Benadryl; the Benadryl was thrown out and discarded so she has no lot number to provide for it, stated that the Benadryl was the pediatric dye free bubblegum free. The Albuterol Sulfate HFA inhaler is 90mcg per puff and she does two puffs every 6 hours as needed; she had not taken the inhaler but she has trouble with asthma and took the Albuterol inhaler now as preventative and needs to use the inhaler as of yesterday (lot Y23B with expiry date Dec2021). Patient stated that she has the tools of her Albuterol inhaler, the steroid Medrol and the Benadryl and the knowledge so she prevented the symptoms she was reporting from being life threatening but stated the reported events were a little disabling and medically significant.She had joint pain in her left arm and could not use her left arm and her whole entire arm and hand. She had left clavicle pain under the clavicle and knows this did occur in the random trials but for her it went away after two days and is now back regarding the pain. She has bright red palms and sole of her feet are bright red. The next morning on 11Mar2021, her upper lip was tingling and she did go see her healthcare professional in town and sent photos to her Rheumatologist. As time went on she had tingling in her hands and her entire body from her scalp to her soles was so irritated and prickly and her soles and palms were bright red; it looked like Kawasaki disease and she used to take care of children with Kawasaki disease. On Saturday which was the 3rd day she was on the Medrol 8mg and had the fight or flight cardiac symptom and she cut herself down on the Medrol on the next Sunday to 6mg which seemed to make her better. The redness was gone until she had the Pfizer COVID Vaccine 2nd dose yesterday and the healthcare professional initially said after her 1st dose of the vaccine to wait and see her rheumatologist do decided to do the increased Medrol dose of steroids and she stated she has got to get the 2nd dose of the Pfizer COVID Vaccine; the healthcare professional checked her lungs that were clear and her pulse ox was fine and she was not wheezing and she then went on increased steroids from Medrol 6mg to 8mg right away. She did have a right leg paresthesia and had that before the vaccine so she knows what it is like because she has issues with her spine but had not had the paresthesia in a long time. She increased to Medrol 8mg for the three days after the 1st dose of the Pfizer COVID Vaccine and got a flight or fight response. She had to increase the Medrol dose from 6mg and popped it up to 8mg and she had mucoid eruptions in her mouth, on her palate and down her throat and had a voice change. She has a laryngoscopy on Thursday (25Mar2021) with her ENT. She has pediatric doses of everything because she reacts to almost everything. The 2nd dose of the Pfizer COVID Vaccine was administered to her on 29Mar2021 09:45 with lot ER8732. Patient stated that anyone else would have gone to the emergency room but she took care of herself at home and knows the risk factors related to the vaccine. She absolutely felt the reported events were related to the Pfizer COVID Vaccine in terms of causality and she never had these issues before. The rheumatologist had experience with patients with autoimmune diseases and stated people with autoimmune disease have a heightened immune reaction to the vaccine no matter which vaccine they get and are overly active and then a vaccine is thrown in there and we are charting new territory. The next Thursday or Friday over a week now after the Pfizer COVID Vaccine she had a multisystem type of thing and on 18th and 19th of March she started having episodes and was not doing anything but quietly doing something and had chest flutters and spontaneous cough where her heart races and felt she couldn't catch her breath and is now on a 30 day event monitor. She was not sure this is due to the Medrol steroids or the Pfizer COVID Vaccine. She got her thyroid TSH level done because sometimes when the Synthroid dose needs to be lowered because it is too high for your body and you can have atrial flutter which she has had before in the past from her Synthroid dose being too high; states her Synthroid is 50mcg and takes it once per day by mouth and it is in a prescription bottle with no lot, expiry date or NDC. Patient saw her primary care physician again last Tuesday on 23Mar2021 and all the issues in her throat and neck area had something pressing around her throat and thought it was lymph nodes and woke up with a voice change and physician said he would take a look and he said it was not thrush and she would have to be scoped because he couldn't see in her throat. She had a referral for a CBC and Chemistry lab to be done on 25Mar2021 and TSH was in the usual range for her, the results from Thursday (25Mar2021) night had her BUN and creatinine and GSR (Glomerular filtration rate) abnormal. The rheumatologist called her that night and talked to the physician and said he considered this may be body inflammatory response to being vaccinated and could be that her kidneys were inflamed and she does not know as this is all new territory. For the kidney issues, the information was sent off to the rheumatologist who did orders and called the physician back the next day and she told him she thought she needed a nephrology consult and had urine chemistry, a urinalysis and looked for protein and did a blood draw for a chemistry screen with the following results on 25Mar2021: BUN 22.3, grade IIIa kidney failure, creatinine 1.28, eGSR-NAA 42ml/min, normal is over 60 and she usually runs 70 something. She went to the hospital over the years to have her chemistry lab done because she has Lupus and over the last two years she has never been below 60 for the eGSR-NAA. On 26Mar2021, she repeated the blood work and sent everything to her physician and the CMP had her BUN still elevated at 19.5, the creatinine was down to 0.97 and the eGSR-NAA was up to 58mL/min which is still abnormal; the urinalysis was all fine with no white cells and no leukocytes and no protein; the urine chemistry had the creatine of 8.5, the protein in the urine LVL was less than 0.4mg. Her CBC had her lymphs and monos down and she would expect having this response to the vaccine. Both physician called her on the weekend and they were concerned this came out of nowhere and now are monitoring her again in a month; her physician and rheumatologist both were entertaining this could be related to the Pfizer COVID Vaccine. She does not take vaccines because of what they do to the body and did take the flu vaccine in Oct2020. She was covid negative (unspecified date) and stated had to be screened on Friday 26Mar2021 before her laryngoscopy and did the PCR test and only does the PCR. States she was doing research and had conflicting information from her physician and rheumatologist who she first saw her physician, after her 1st dose of the vaccine and the rheumatologist talked about increasing her steroids and she told him she was so tired and how with increased steroids, do steroids impact the effectiveness of the covid vaccine being blunt immune suppressants. Physician said long term chronic steroids have no effect on the effectiveness of the vaccine. She has no had headaches, shaky chills like everybody else has because she is on immune suppressants and has an article that says some evidence for steroids diminishing efficacy in Pfizer COVID Vaccine. No prior vaccinations within 4 weeks. No additional Vaccines administered on same date of the Pfizer suspect. Events required a visit to physician office (No visit to the ER but did see her physician). The last action taken in response to the events for methylprednisolone was unknown. The outcome of the event had left clavicle pain under the clavicle was recovered on 12Mar2021; event has bright red palms and sole of her feet are bright red was recovered in Mar2021; outcome for the other events was unknown.; Sender's Comments: The reported events are assessed as possibly related to the suspect drug BNT162B2 based on strong temporal association, but possible contributory effects from patient's medical history and concomitant medications cannot be completely ruled out. 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.

He was treated according to sepsis protocol including antibiotics for bacterial infection for pulmonary infiltrates however it was felt the pulmonary infiltrates are more related with COVID-19 pulmonary findings. Eliquis was started for DVT. Medical Center had been contacted Dr was the pulmonary attending and discussion is documented below- Attending hospitalist spoke to Dr from Medical Center. At this point they know that she has Wegener's granulomatosis involving her kidneys and causing her renal failure but they do not think that is what is going on in her lungs. They have still trying to work-up her infiltrates. She has it we obtain a nocturnal oximetry study. She was reassured that the patient is on her normal oxygen rate despite the DVT in her leg. She feels this should rule out a pulmonary embolism. If the patient is doing well from cardiopulmonary standpoint tomorrow she should be able to go home on Eliquis and follow-up with the specialist. She was continued on Monistat cream for 3 nights total. At this point patient will not require antibiotics will continue on Decadron and may be discharged to follow-up with her specialist.

About an hour after second dose of Pfizer shot, my mouth tasted like metal. I could not taste anything for about 6 hours. After 6 hours, this side-effect went away for the most part. The worst side effect happened 10 days later. All the joints in my fingers became swollen. (Not the knuckles, but both joints above.) 2 fingers on each hand were especially bumpy, red and painful. (Index and middle fingers.) I felt pins and needles in my hands for weeks. Hands and fingers were achy and sore. Sometimes I experienced sharp pains in them. I could barely use my hands at all. I tried everything to stop the pain. Sprays, gels, Aleve and compression gloves. Only after 10 WEEKS and starting on a dose of Tumeric and Curcumin has the pain begun to subside to the point I am not crying everyday. I did see the doctor who took X-Rays. These showed my osteoarthritis which I know I have in my hands. But I have NEVER HAD PAIN in all the digits and hands at one time. This was a major flare-up and very very painful and concerning. This condition has not cleared completely but does seem to be reversing.

Then just now my left side of my leg had a sparkling pain that rushed in and out and I got up to walk, it was hard. Still some cramps in the right and the left hand. My sciatica (my diagnosis from Urgent Care Doctor diagnosed) is still acting up but on my left and right side. Just went down 12 steps and it was hard and even harder to come back up the 12 steps, that I felt like my legs were going to totally give out. Dated: May 27, 2021,> I feel like since the COVID-19 2nd Pfizer Dose has done this. I?ve been having a memory lapse like trying to think of what was I going to do!! Sometimes I notice I?m talking really slow. But when I begin to notice I?m talking slow I?m trying to tell my brains to speed it up if that makes sense. I don?t like this feeling. My legs (Sciatica - Urgent Care Doctor diagnosed) still hurt so bad. Never had the problem until I got this vaccine 2nd Pfizer Dose It?s hard for me to try to take and type this is crazy. Urgent Care told me I had Sciatica (right leg hurts bad) and my boil. But, boil is going away. May 28, 2021, Yes. Now my ears are ringing so bad. What is going on? My Sciatica is still bothering me. Sent note to my doctor at urgent care, Hello Dr., I just want to know can I walk with this sciatica even if it hurts... Pain is so so bad. No more meds at all please making me feel bad.

Dated May 29, 2021,> message to Dr.: This med is just making me sick and I?m getting tired of taking them and I awaken with still so much pain. Can we do an x-Ray to make sure it just Sciatica and then maybe I can get this done below: I have steps/stairs where I live painful to go down and painful to come up... I?m like a little old lady when I was feeling great before the 2nd dose of Pfizer. I hate that I took it.

About 2.5 weeks after receiving her second Pfizer COVID vaccine pt started feeling sick with fevers, achiness, sciatic nerve pain, muscle pain, joint pain. On 4-11-21 she started taking hydroxichloriquine and a z-pak from the front line COVID doctors. She took the medications and seemed to do well but on the 3rd or 4th day she started hurting again. After she finished the meds she went to the Center. She was put on supplements and Ivermectin and another course of hydrochloroquine. She also was in the oxygen chamber twice. She then started taking peptide shots twice a week which really seemed to help. These started wearing off after about 3 days. She took her last one on 6-7-21 and the pain was back by her first visit with me on 6-9-21. She did test positive for COVID between getting her second vaccine and the time I saw her. By the time I had my first visit with her she had muscle aches and pains in general and severe joint pain - mostly to shoulders, hips. Her legs were constantly achy. The pain seems to migrate. Her R sided sciatic pain is more severe and stretching doesn't seem to help. She has been experiencing muscle spasms to her legs/feet at night. I started her on Low Dose Naltrexone after our first visit and got labs.

Immunocompromised persons, including individuals receiving immunosuppressant therapy, may have a diminished immune response to the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine. 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. Experts are currently evaluating how COVID-19 vaccination may affect antibody testing results. If an immune response develops the goal of vaccination is a possibility of on antibody tests. Antibody tests indicate a previous infection and there may be some level of protection against the virus. Caller states she received the second dose of the vaccine, had an anaphylactic reaction, and was treated with steroids, and Benadryl. She is calling about the Pfizer COVID 19 vaccine. After the second dose of the COVID vaccine, she had an anaphylactic reaction. Her question is, since she had to get IV steroids and stuff, is the dose still effective.

AE requires a visit to Emergency Room.

Swelling in face at temples where I had filler a year ago; right eye area swelled up more until eye was almost closed; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 66-year-old female patient received her first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number: El3246), via an unspecified route of administration on 10Jan2021 12:30 at single dose in left arm for covid-19 immunization. Illness at vaccine included urinary tract infection from Jan2021 and ongoing. Medical history included face at temples where she had filler a year before (in 2019). Concomitant medication included nitrofurantoin for urinary tract infection from 04Jan2021 to 11Jan2021. The patient had historically gotten shingles vaccine, flu vaccine and pneumonia vaccine and never had any problems. The patient experienced swelling in face at temples where she had filler a year before (in 2019) and right eye area swelled up more until eye was almost closed on 10Jan2020 17:00. This consumer had the bnt162b2 on 10Jan2021 at about 12:30pm. On 10Jan2021 around 4:00 pm (reported as "10Jan2020 05:00 pm") she noticed the areas around her temples and under eyes where she had filler placed last year swelled up quite a bit. She read up on this and saw to take antihistamines or oral steroids for this, so she took antihistamines and the event improved, was much better through during the day yesterday (11Jan2021). Last night (11Jan2021) her right eye area swelled up more until eye was almost closed; in response to that event she has been icing the area and the event has improved, swelling come down quite a bit but still ongoing. She called her primary care physician about this event and is waiting for a callback from them about getting a steroid pack. She already reported this information on an unknown Pfizer website online, and also on the VAERS reporting online site today (12Jan2021); but does not have any reference numbers from those reports to provide at this time. She called to ask for information on how to proceed regarding this event; if this has been reported with bnt162b2; if there would be problems with her getting the second dose of bnt162b2 as scheduled on 31Jan2021 because she heard the second dose would be worse. She also noted during this report that she was still taking nitrofurantoin for urinary tract infection when she received that first dose of bnt162b2; she asked if that could have any correlation with event or be a problem taken together. She reported by the time she got that first dose the urinary tract infection itself was gone. Caller verified that she received no other vaccines on the date of first dose of bnt162b2 and onset of adverse event. She verified that she had not received any other vaccines in the 4 weeks prior to the first dose of bnt162b2 and onset of adverse event. She verified that she has no history of any adverse events with any other vaccines. The outcome of the events was recovering.

A couple of days after that right leg started to swell and was warm. Went to ER on 1/29/2021 and had doppler which showed blood clots from groin area to below the knee. I was placed on Xarelto at that time. Got 2nd dose and about 24 hours latter back of thighs started to hurt again. Called doctor and applied heat and elevation and had no new swelling but I remain on Xeralto. Not sure if it was related but I have had no history of blood clots. 2 years previously broke my right patella and was with brace and no weight bearing for about 8 weeks and brace for 12 weeks without clot issues. Traveled by car a couple thousand miles last year and no issues.

Morning after 1st shot awoke with sore back and neck. Appeared swollen like inflammatory response to shot as day of shot felt fine. I did go to Physical Therapy that morning for knee but didn't do anything out of the ordinary since had been doing that for weeks. That night was in so much pain couldn't get into bed. Pain radiated from back to hip to thigh, and down shin, with no feeling in shin. Muscles very tight and was very odd. Seen by provider the next day and received Toradol shot. That did not provide relief so went to local ER. X-rays revealed pinched nerve. Now maybe that was because of the inflammatory response or pure dumb luck. Still in lot pain and will receive cortisone shot next week 10 days after 2nd dose today. Providers feel not related, but one provider said if my back was inflamed even a simple reaching for glass in cupboard could pinch nerve. I was not going to report but then saw someone posted on (social media) had muscle pain and spasms which sounded like what I had. I believe my inflammatory response to shot drove me to the pinched nerve situation. Been in pain for weeks and had to go to 2nd shot in wheelchair.

The compression socks help keep the swelling down and I do not know how long I will need to use them.

Got dose one on 3/6 and saw Dr. on 3/8 re: reactions. She thought swollen lymph nodes were causing the pain in my thighs which began the night of 3/6. I also mentioned I'd started getting "a cold" which she said could be a reaction. Leg pain subsided by 3/10, but the "cold" worsened that week into a full blown deep cough, fatigue, runny nose, but no fever. Sometime around 3/11-3/14 I noticed I was dealing with tinnitus in my left ear (my "good" ear, not the one with Meniere's) and suspected it was from the vaccine, as I'd not had this before. Cold subsided by 3/26 but tinnitus got worse, with both a high pitch and a bass, pulsating sound. The tinnitus keeps me awake at night.

A 66-years-old (non-pregnant) female patient received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 MRNA VACCINE, Solution for injection, Lot Number: EL3302, expiry date not reported) via an unspecified route of administration, administered in left arm on 11Mar2021 14:00 at a single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included neuropathy from 2006 and ongoing, since she had chemotherapy in 2006 for breast cancer in 2006 and burning mouth syndrome. The patient had no covid prior vaccination. The patient had no known allergies. The patient had other medications in two weeks which included unspecified dietary supplements. The patient had no other vaccine in four weeks. The patient previously took doxycycline from 2010 to an unknown date for Lyme's diseaseand experienced burning mouth syndrome. On 11Mar2021 at 02:00 PM, patient had palpitations, being lightheaded, sweating, exacerbation of existing neuropathy and especially burning mouth syndrome - nerve endings in tongue, lips and cheeks were all on fire. These symptoms still continue. Patient stated that people were talking about the second dose being worse. Patient stated that some of the reactions in Mar2021 look like an allergic reaction. They (HCP) only have cautioned the patient about difficulty breathing in Mar2021. They were saying there wasn't anything they can do for it. Patient asked how long the side effects will last and how to go about changing the appointment. If they are going to continue, patient was very concerned about following up with the second shot and asked if they can have that second shot be postponed until patient was not experiencing these side effects to the effect that she was. She completed the self-reporting on Monday (15Mar2021), but because her side effects were not going away she wanted to reach out to someone. She has reached out to her practitioner and had an appointment yesterday. Doctors didn't really know because it was all very new. She had the first vaccination shot on 11Mar2021, almost a week ago. In the 15 minutes that she waited afterwards she definitely experienced palpitations and a feeling of lightheadedness. She has an underlying condition of burning and pain called neuropathy. She has had neuropathy since she had chemotherapy in 2006 for breast cancer. This exacerbated that. She had been very concerned about that prior. Everyone said and the CDC recommends even with neuropathy to go ahead with the vaccine. It also triggered another underlying condition. She had a reaction to a course of Doxycycline in 2010 for Lyme's disease that caused burning mouth syndrome. Both of these things were really acute now, the neuropathy and burning mouth syndrome. Monday (15Mar2021) was a particularly bad day because the symptoms of an allergy which were swelling of the face and throat, fast heart beat, and dizziness were with the burning mouth syndrome. She didn't have difficulty breathing. It was the nerve endings of the tongue that go all the way to the back of her throat and gave the sensation of the whole mouth being involved. Monday was difficult. It was 8 hours of an acute episode then it eased off a little that evening. She had no appetite on Monday and barely ate anything. Yesterday was ok and much better although she was being triggered by environmental thing such as food and toothpaste. Things she normally uses were setting it off. She had an acute reaction this morning to a protein shake she has had every day for 14 years. The reaction this morning, 17Mar2021, was a drop in blood pressure and palpitations. It passed. She has been documenting this and made her provider aware of what she was experiencing. She was participating in the V-Safe through the CDC that checks up on her everyday and asks about symptoms. She didn't know if she was supposed to report this to the vaccine adverse event system or not. Obviously, she didn't want to get COVID. She was struggling with the recommendation to get second shot because she was extremely concerned. She wanted to know how long will the side effects will last and if she can postpone getting the second shot until she gets reasonably well. No practitioner can recommend whether to do it or not to do it. She reported this information online to Pfizer on 15Mar2021. She provided the lot number when she reported it online. The patient was not tested for COVID post vaccination. No treatments received from the events had palpitations, being lightheaded, sweating, exacerbation of existing neuropathy and especially burning mouth syndrome - nerve endings in tongue, lips and cheeks were all on fire. The patient recovered with lasting effects from the events had palpitations, being lightheaded, sweating, exacerbation of existing neuropathy and especially burning mouth syndrome - nerve endings in tongue, lips and cheeks were all on fire. The outcome of the other reported events was unknown.

She said that the numbness traveled up the right side of her jaw to her ear and then over to her right eye. When she got home, she told her daughter and she said that she thought it was because she volunteered all day and was worn out and anxious (26Feb2021). She said that she slammed water and ate crackers and after about a 1.5 hours she started to feel better. She said that she then she called her physician and the doctor told her that it was flaring the nerve root like bells palsy and that it is a RNA Virus. She said that she was placed on some medication for it, but was wondering if she should get the second dose of the vaccine. She said that the doctor asked her if she had previously had cold sores and she said yes. The caller said that her doctor said that it is exactly what that is. The patient stated that she was also short of breath on an unspecified date, but thought it was from fear and anxiousness. She does not know if it was from fear and anxiety or from the vaccine. She said that the doctor told her to take the medication 3 days before and 3 days after her second dose. She clarified that the doctor put her on Valacyclovir HCl 1Gm tablets 1 a day. She said that she broke out with fever blisters on 02Mar2021. She really did not think anything of it until speaking with friends in the medical field and they told her to follow up with this. She added that the fever blisters are healing and only a tiny bit left. It is at the scab and end of healing.

She had 2 seizures the next morning after the shot (on 13Mar2021) which she hasn't had in 20 years. The patient experienced her first seizure about 11:00 on 13Mar2021. It took the patient about 45 minutes to come out of the first one completely, until she was conscious again. The second seizure occurred about 13:00 on 13Mar2021, about an hour and a half after the patient recovered from the first seizure. fter the second seizure, the fire department was called and she was transported to the Emergency Room. The doctor told the husband that it was up to them if they wanted to receive the second dose. The husband stated, "I know there is something out there that I heard about where you can disqualify yourself from getting the vaccine for medical reasons." Also on 13Mar2021, the patient's tongue hurts in the Emergency Room, no one was willing to give her a new tongue after she bit it. The patient's tongue was what hurt's the most, but that it was slowly healing. The patient seemed to be fine since Saturday. he patient's father was really persistent about them getting the Covid-19 vaccinations. A CT scan and blood work were performed while she was in the Emergency Room on 13Mar2021 and reported that everything was fine. The patient went to the emergency room on 13Mar2021 and physician office on 17Mar2021 as a result of the seizure activity on 13Mar2021. On 17Mar2021, the patient's blood pressure was 130/82 with blood work with result of everything was fine. The patient went to her physician on 17Mar2021 due to concern about getting the second dose of the Covid-19 vaccine. When asked about prior vaccinations within 4 weeks of the Covid-19 vaccine, the patient stated that she didn't want to get the first dose of the Covid-19 vaccine because she's never even had the flu shot. The patient stated that back in 1977 when they first came out with the flu shot, she was unable to receive the vaccine as she was pregnant and she has never gotten the flu. The patient reported that she was unable to get MRIs due to the metal clamp in her. Patient reported that the clamp in her head was metal, not surgical metal, and that she has to be very careful because getting an MRI could kill her. The patient reported that next the day (in Mar2021) her arm was so hot that she could have roasted a weenie over her arm and it was very swollen. The patient reported that she went to urgent care and was told that it was an allergic reaction. The patient also reported that she got shingles again after receiving the vaccination. The husband considered the case as non-serious. The patient recovered from seizure with associated disease recurrence on 13Mar2021; for tongue pain was recovering while for the remaining events was unknown.

Fever started the day after second pfizer vaccine but went away in 24 hours. But after 10 days a swollen lymph node started on the right side of the neck with some fever. After take Ibuprofen the pain as well as the fever was subdued. All blood work were normal. So I stopped ibuprofen. But after 3 days the fever came back high (102) and so is the pain of the lymph node. Doctor gave me Azithromycin 500mg a day and ordered more blood work. The fever continued to be 102 at the night and around 99 during the day when i drink a lot of water. After the new bloodwork and Neck Ultrasound came out my doctor's diagnose was: Acute Thyroiditis.

at about 4 hours after vaccine I thought I was having a stroke. The right side of my face went numb and felt like it was drooping, my right arm went numb, my right leg and foot went numb. But I could still talk and make a smile face so I did not go to ER. Gradually both of my legs became very weak and then my hands became very weak. This lasted for over a week/ten days. By the first night I couldn't sleep because my brain could not seem to get into a deep sleep pattern, had body aches and sore arm but not dreadful, and by the next day had a fever which maxed at 101 degrees ( my normal is 97.2-97.4). Had a low grade fever for 10 days! Also by the 2nd day I had swollen glands in my right neck and armpit, and pain from my right elbow to my neck. My usual level of unstable balance was MUCH worse for at least a week and my usual tinnitus was MUCH louder than usual for about 10 days! Night 3 I had a very bad episode of something like restless leg which also extended not just in my legs but also into my head! Very bizarre! By day 4 I was having episodes of near fainting, often. This lasted for about another week. All in all it was a dreadful experience, which I believe was related to issues with my already compromised nervous system due to the Parkinson's/MSA. I will NEVER have another one fetes vaccines or booster shots if those become available. I am quite frightened that the next vaccine could result in me actually having a stroke or other serious consequence.

4-13-2021 I received my first shot on 3-18-21, Pfizer, Ep1534, left upper arm. I proceeded to get a 3- day hot flash followed by intense swelling that went up the left side of my neck to the back of my head. It also inflamed my lymph nodes above my left clavicle. It made it hard to swallow on the left side of my throat. All this lasted for about 6 days. I received my second shot on 4-6-21, Pfizer Er 8737, left upper arm. My symptoms were worse.

I proceeded to get a 3- day hot flash followed by intense swelling that went up the left side of my neck to the back of my head. It also inflamed my lymph nodes above my left clavicle. It made it hard to swallow on the left side of my throat. All this lasted for about 6 days. I received my second shot on 4-6-21 at RPCC, Pfizer Er 8737, left upper arm. My symptoms were worse. The sustained hot flash was now accompanied by constant chills, nausea and loss of appetite. The swelling was extremely intense, again up the side of my neck to the back of my head, and my lymph nodes were very swollen in my neck and above my left clavicle. It was very hard to swallow. This lasted about 11 days. My major concern is that the lymph nodes that were swollen have reduced in size to very hard lumps that you can see just by looking at them. One is about the size of a marble, the other is larger than a walnut. Both are VERY HARD. Their size is not reducing and I can still feel something funny in the left side of my throat when I swallow. I am normally very healthy. In 15 years I may have had 1 small cold, and I have never had a headache. I have no family doctor. PLEASE NOTE: THE BEST WAY TO REACH ME IS BY EMAIL

After the first shot/just a small cold sore/she got the second shot, she had cold sores all over her mouth/it was a pretty bad outbreak; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient) reported for herself that a 66-year-old female patient received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Batch/Lot Number: EN6202) via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 08Mar2021 16:00 as single dose, and second dose (Batch/Lot Number: EP6955) via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 30Mar2021 13:15 as single dose for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included cold sores ever since she was a little girl. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. Patient thought she had a side effect from her COVID vaccine and she wanted to know if anyone else had it and then to report. After receiving the first shot, she got a cold sore the day after, on 09Mar2021, she didn't remember exactly how long it lasted, it was just a small cold sore, just a normal 7-10 day one, that's all it lasted. She never thought anything of it because she has gotten cold sores ever since she was a little girl. She recovered completely from the first one in Mar2021. Then she got the second shot, she had cold sores all over her mouth, this one was huge, on her bottom and top lip, tongue, like they were still there. It began 31Mar2021 and it's ongoing. The cold sore got worse when it started, then started to dry out and heal. Patient stated that it's in the drying and healing stage, as cold sores go. She supposed it is getting better, it still hurts and itches though. Since it is a pretty bad outbreak and so she's wondering if this is a side effect of this vaccine because she understands there will be boosters and perhaps will have to take it again next year. Patient had blood work done in between the first dose and the second dose in Mar2021. She is unsure of the blood tests or results, just the standard blood work. The event did not require a visit to emergency room or physician office. No additional vaccines administered on same date of the Pfizer suspect. No prior vaccinations within 4 weeks. Outcome of the event was recovered in Mar2021. No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information is expected.

Following her second vaccine dose she has had pain in the center of the palms of her hands and bottom of her feet. The pain is inconsistent as it comes and goes. The feet pain come and go not bad like the hands. The middle of the palm pain comes and goes and the joint on 1 finger never did get better, it is worse at night and a teeny bit better in the morning. She felt pain in 1 of her feet for a moment yesterday and not continuous like her hand. The left hand is not swelling, the center of her palm has a weird feeling, states she has never had shingles before but imagines that is what the palm of her hand would feel like, it is an achy pain.

fever blisters; ear ache; stress; 2nd dose of the Pfizer Covid vaccine on 02Mar2021 and on 24Apr2021 she went to the emergency room with Bell's Palsy; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient) via a Pfizer-sponsored program. A currently 67-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in the left arm on 02Mar2021 16:00 (also reported as 16:30) (Batch/Lot Number: Unknown) as 2nd dose, single dose (at the age of 66-years-old) for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included bell's palsy from 07Jan2015; and an unspecified risk factor. The patient had no concomitant medications. The patient did not have any prior vaccinations within 4 weeks. The patient did not have family medical history that was relevant to adverse events and no relevant tests were done. The patient previously took shingles vaccine (Merck) that started with the letter 'Z' and had Bell's Palsy in Jan2015 which was exactly 6 weeks after she got a shingles vaccine; tetanus vaccines 10 years ago as a booster and experienced severe swelling on her arm, swelling in her body; Quadravalent flu vaccine and never had a reaction to the flu vaccines; and the first dose of BNT162B2 (reported as 'Pfizer COVID') for COVID-19 immunisation on 02Feb2021 in the left arm. On 24Apr2021, the patient experienced bell's palsy. On unspecified dates, the patient experienced fever blisters, ear ache and stress. The events were reported as follows: Her HCP should have the information on the shingles vaccine she got in 2015. When she had bell's palsy the 1st time in 2015, she had to go to the hospital for a day and a half to rule out everything and the best they found was that she had herpes simplex based on the blood work done at that time and it was what her HCP believed it was at that because it showed she had some kind of virus but neither time she had bell's palsy did she have seizure or other symptoms other than the ear ache she had this time. The patient got the second dose of the vaccine on 02Mar2021 and on 24Apr2021 she went to the emergency room with Bell's palsy. She can talk better when she holds her mouth. She was out of town when she noticed the symptoms of bell's palsy the night before on 24Apr2021 and when she got home she then went to the emergency room on 25Apr2021; she could tell something was happening again and it was noticeable and she had an ear ache the day before and her face was drooping. The HCPs swear there was no correlation between the vaccine and bell's palsy but she found this very coincidental. The patient stated that she would rather get bell's palsy again than get covid. For treatment, the only thing she has done was to call the HCP to schedule the follow-up visit as directed by the emergency room (ER) HCP; she went to the ER to rule out stroke and they did rule out stroke; states the only other thing she can think of is that she had quite a bit of stress because they put down her dog on Sunday and other than that she had an ear ache at her granddaughter's track meet on the day before on 24Apr2021 and the emergency room visit was on 25Apr2021. She has had recurrent fever blisters and her HCP has given her a prescription for Valcyclovir and she takes that at the onset of fever blisters and where she gets the fever blisters is constantly on the previous side where she had bell's palsy and was in the same spot on her left side of her lip. States the Valcyclovir she has was one gram tablets and she takes one when she has a fever blister and one 12 hours later; states she has two prescriptions for the Valcyclovir and they are in orange pharmacy bottles with no lot numbers, expiry dates and NDC numbers and the other prescription for Valcyclovir is also 1 gram and she takes it three times per day now after this outbreak. The patient required a visit to the ER or medical doctor office. The outcome of the events was unknown.

Symptoms started a week later. Severe pain in the right shoulder. In the morning cannot lift my right arm up to the side of my body. Lifting it forward showed no signs of pain. Then during the day and night, pain in both knees and ankles needing to hold the banister to walk up or down 1 step at a time. Also developed swelling and in my lower legs. Bought special circulation knee high socks. Also pain in both feet. Went to the doctor and they prescribed medication I chose not to take. Opted for Tylenol 650 mg. I am not one to take medications, especially when they cannot determine the root causes. Dr. prescribed an ultrasound, right shoulder and also legs for circulation issues that I did not have before. I walk a lot in my job and do many physical tasks with no fatigue of pain before the vaccination. Am overweight but healthy and strong. I was a competitive bodybuilder in my late 20's and early 30's. I do my own gardening, mowing, mulching and planting etc and throughly enjoy it with no fatigue or pain at all before the vaccination. Now I can barely make it through an hour of activity without pain. Normally I have always had a high threshold for pain and heal fast. However this new set of conditions have me perplexed. I did some research on the vaccine and now I understand why I am all of a sudden having these issues. "Joint and Muscle Pain" The issue is, why is it lasting this long? It has been over a month since my second dose of the Vaccine. As a note ... I had a fall at work in March where I injured my right hand, no fractures were noted in x-rays. Just a bone/muscle bruise in the thenar region. I went through physical therapy and after 3 weeks it healed. My 1st vaccine dose was March 9, 2021 and I chose to have the vaccine administered in my left arm. 800 Mg of Ibuprofen was given but stopped taking it by the time I had my first vaccine. No other complaints until after my 2nd dose in April. At first I attributed the joint pains to the fall, however, the time line does not correspond, since these new pains started after April 6 (my first vaccine dose.

get sore arm; Anaphylactic reaction; Shortness of breath; look miserable; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 66-year-old female patient received bnt162b2 (BNT162B2), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Right on 09May2021 (Lot Number: EW0177; Expiration Date: Aug2021) at single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included asthma since she was 8 years old, when she was a child her asthma was really bad and then she would say after 2004, she would say she went to chemotherapy and then 2005 her asthma got a lot better, didn't have it really bad as she used to, one doctor said he had heard that from patient they go through the chemo and their immune system change, she carried her little inhaler, but she don't have (incomplete sentence), she had asthma but not really bad, she was not like walking around every day with asthma packs but she have asthma and she keep little inhaler, for eg; if there is lot of pollen in air then she will need to take out her inhaler; breast cancer; seizure; hypertension, high cholesterol. Concomitant medications included zonisamide taken for seizure, lacosamide (VIMPAT) taken for seizure, losartan taken for hypertension, atorvastatin taken for high cholesterol, all start and stop date were not reported. Some years ago when she in 2005 when she was on the end like she said its 2005 and she was right on the end of being treated for breast cancer. she was taking, the doctor put her on Tamoxifen and she woke up one morning to really short of her breath and she thought it was her asthma, so the lady she was staying with said you look miserable and she said let her get back on the store and have her take her to the ER she said call now and it turned she had a blood clot in her lungs but 'Dr PRIVACY' (not spelled) who was treating her, he was a cancer specialist he said PRIVACY she was so proud of her, he said that she got to take you off the Tamoxifen, it was that Tamoxifen that caused blood clot in your lung. A blood clot in the lungs was the side effect of the Tamoxifen. Tamoxifen was one of the drug they give women who have had breast cancer and are right at the end of the treatment and put us on Tamoxifen and she ended up with a little bit of blood clot in her lungs. He said that was one of the effects of Tamoxifen. So, that was like in 2008, 2009 it was 12 years ago, could have 11 years ago but this goes to show her body may have potency for allergic reaction. The patient stated she had short of her breath because she did have allergic reaction shortness of breath with Pfizer Vaccine first dose at a pharmacy yesterday 09May2021, had been given Prednisone so. She did shortness of breath about 45 minutes after she took it because we had to sit there about she would say we were sitting there about 20 minutes and he finally said well you all can get up and leave and then about say 15 minutes later she start getting shorter and shorter of her breath. " The patient stated, she just needed to Pfizer certainly reporting acting as if this was just a completely safe vaccine there are unsafe reaction to this vaccine so she wanted to get this going okay, she was 66 years old she end up going to the ER, they didn't give her Epipen' (not clarified further) so that's when she started to get sore arm, she had an anaphylactic reaction to this drug. Now if this was the wrong number to report it to then she would call to get to agency she needed to report it to. she was on the Prednisone now. Sometimes it was difficult for she to breathe, so the emergency room they 'have' (not clear) she up with enough medication now, so she had got plenty of medication now." She stated it just happened yesterday, when she saw on the news that they hadapproved it to be for children and it bothers me that they, this was just a break simple drug no very safe. Yesterday when she first started getting short of her breath she was in denial and didn't want to because she was really started shorter of my breath and the pharmacist that administered he even said he knew that it was the reaction to the drug because she was full animated before he administered the vaccine because she was sitting there talking to the two ladies and you know jabbering and remember the days because of flu shots and how the government used it, they didn't wanted knowledge when people talked about how the flu shot (Unspecified Shot) made them sick and she was just jabbering so he knew it was reaction to the vaccine. Here was this lady 'who was so animated and talking and now she can barely hold her head up' (not clarified further). Patient confirmed Prednisone as treatment. As for the treatment patient stated, "Took the 2 Prednisone and what happened was, if I wasn't even going to go get Prednisone, but the shortness of breath was going transient, what I mean is first of all I talk and I do fine and then all of a sudden I get short of my breath again and then looked like I had a good night and then I woke up and my lungs tightened up again and then earlier this evening I called on phone and tell them I have to take Prednisone because my breath was getting short again." Prednisone details were 10 mg 4 tablet by mouth every day for 5 days then 2 tablet every day for 3 days, so 1 every day for 2 days. As for other medications: patient stated she was on seizure medications daily. She was on treatment for asthma, she had a little inhaler she keep in her purse for eg; if there's pollen in the air, when she got out and then maybe get short of her breath if there's pollen in the air yeah she need her little inhaler, but she was on daily treatment for her seizures she was on 800 mg a day for the seizures, Zonisamide and Vimpat. In fact that day she wouldn't take any other medication because she thought well she was not taking any other medication' (not clarified further) to mix it with this vaccine. Normally she take the 25 mg for high blood pressure but she won't take it that day she think it's called Losartan or something. Little bit of high blood pressure they cut that down because her blood pressure had gotten, she had some high blood pressure yes it's called 25 mg of Losartan. Yeah she thought, she won't take it that morning because she though well just lay off all of that stuff that day and so we can take the vaccine, 'mix none of that with vaccine' (not clear), that day the only medication that she was taking was her seizure medication (Zonisamide and Vimpat) because you can't skip medication but the Losartan and Atorvastatin that's for high cholesterol she won't take that either that day. The asthma now, she did have asthma but it's a kind of that's one the things that you have it but you are not on daily medication for it. She do keep her inhaler with because sometimes she go in buildings where they have air condition on really high and it gets to her lungs. In fact when this happened and the guy wanted to call 911 we decide well let's see if new inhaler (Unspecified Medication) worked and it wasn't quite rescuing her lungs like it should." For Vimpat details patient stated, it's a pill (formulation not clarified further), it's 100 mg so she took one in the morning and one in the evening.

Within 36 hrs spiked a temp of 101 that resulted in night sweats, lethargy & nose bleeds 5/5/21 0 symptoms until 5/5/21 @ 5pm 5/5/21 Vaccine #2 continued. 2nd vaccine was @ 10:40am on 5/5 but by 5pm on 5/5, went to bed with lethargy, headache that intensified over night. Severe low back and hip pain, fever, loss of appetite that was so intense, I remained in bed for 25 hours. I was slightly nauseated and only drank water until I was able to make some soup on 5/6 @ 6pm. I've never been this sick & the headache was intense. 5/7/21 I began moving more, pushing fluids and getting out of bed. Two weeks later, 5/19/21, my left upper thigh hurt, followed by three herpes blisters and general malaise. I haven't had a herpes outbreak since 1991. It took several weeks for the blisters to resolve. Then I began experiencing menstrual discharge (I'm 66 and post-menopausal) I hadn't had a menstrul flow or discharge since menopause 13 years earlier. I am still spotting and waiting another couple of weeks since I have numerous women clients experiencing menstrual abnormalities. I'm assuming all of the carrier and preservative vaccine ingredients are a huge to my llver detoxification and of estrogen metabolism.

The morning after the 1st shot both hands were swollen and painful. knots on thumb jointss and redness with swelling. Knuckles were swollen. Could not make a fist and couldn't open jars or pull up pants. Too painful. I didn't think much about it until the 2nd shot. It was getting a little better and then the morning after the 2nd shot my hands were really swollen and the pain was severe. Two weeks later after no relief I went to my primary physician and didn't really get any information or tests. He said "give it a couple of months and see if it is better". I went to a specialist June 10th because it was not better. All he did was take x-rays and prescribe a topical ointment and ibuprofen. He said I have osteoarthritis and it is not bad enough to cause the problem I'm having. He suggested I see a rheumatologist. I have never had this problem until after the COVID vaccine. I cannot open jars, I drop anything I pick up. I can't open doors or anything I have to push with my thumbs. It is hard to get dressed. It is causing a lot of trouble. I have searched and searched online to see if anyone else has had this problem. I would like to know that, because I'm convinced the vaccine caused severe inflammation that has caused this problem for me. I'm wondering if it will go away. As of now, it is just as bad as it was right after the vaccination.

Do not believe he gave it IM, I believe he gave it subQ; Redness; Swelling; heat coming out; Skin lesions 4.5 to 7cms/Red spot on my arm; Low grade temperature elevation; Fatigue; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable physician (patient). A 67-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE; Lot number: EH9899, reported as "SARS-COV-2 then it says Pfizer EH9899", expiry date: Unknown), subcutaneous on 05Jan2021 at single dose for COVID-19 immunization (reported as "To not get COVID 19"). Medical history included hypothyroidism. Concomitant medication included levothyroxine sodium (SYNTHROID) 25mcg, once a day for hypothyroidism. The patient got the vaccine last Tuesday (05Jan2021). When she got the vaccine, the gentleman was from military who gave the vaccine. The patient does not believe that he gave it intramuscular (IM), she believed that he gave it "subQ" because she had no muscle tenderness and "skin a 4.5 by 7cm skin reaction", and it was nowhere near the deltoid muscle. The patient had a high degree of suspicion that he gave it "subQ" (subcutaneous). When asked for the anatomical location of administration, the patient stated that "He gave it on my right arm but it was not into the deltoid, I think he gave it subcutaneously. I am not positive of that but missed the deltoid, it was lower, it was below the deltoid, it was in between the deltoid and the bicep and I am assuming it was subQ because none of my muscles were sore at all after getting the vaccine, accept that big red spot on my arm". Patient asked "Now my question to you is because I looked through all your literature and I can't find anything about this". Since then the skin lesion within a couple of days it was up to about 4.5 to 7cms. It was still about that size however the redness has gone way down, "the not redness", just pink, the swelling was almost gone. The heat coming out of it was almost gone. The patient mentioned that the actual skin region was much better, it was still about the same size though. Patient was not too worried about that and stated "what am concerned about is what I've also have is a low grade temperature elevation and some fatigue. If I got it on 3 O'clock on Tuesday the 5th that would be day 9. Is the 9 days post injection for dose 1 to still have a low grade temperature elevation and some fatigue. Is that acceptable or does that indicate a problem?". Patient stated the she went to her internist and he had a look at it and he said "I had no idea, he said that they just don't have experience like this. Do you have a phone number that I can talk to somebody?". The patient was about 5' 7" (height) and about 175 pounds (weight) approximately. The patient stated that fatigue and temperature elevation started one or two days after the vaccine (Jan2021). Patient reported that she still have it. The fatigue was much less but it was there and low grade temperature elevation was still there. There was no investigation assessment. The patient assessed that the events swelling, redness, skin lesions, temperature and fatigue were related to COVID-19 vaccine, also reported as "Yes, because I never had that before and I am not taking anything now. So, it is like yes. It is definitely because that. The two main symptoms I am asking about are the fatigue and the low grade temperature elevation". Outcome of the events fatigue and skin lesion, redness, swelling and heat coming out was recovering, for low grade temperature elevation was not recovered.

"Not as big as a baseball but larger than a golf ball." I could wrap my fingers around it. Hard as a rock. Within a week my whole entire chest wall on the right (from side to sternum) was scarlet red. And I was getting another "lump" in the fold of tissue where my upper chest meets my upper arm. I was put on Keflex 500 mg four times a day. The redness in my chest wall subsided. Five days after being on Keflex, the lump on my chest was hard, red, very painful, "angry." Fevers, feeling "pretty sick." (Very uncharacteristic of me. I didn't miss a day of work through months of multiple rounds of chemo, 5 weeks of radiation.) February 7 PCP requested I go the ER. Suspecting an abscess. They did an I&D. Expressed "lots of puss" and left a drain in. To be removed in 5 days. Placed on Bactrim twice a day for 5 days.

A 57-year-old female patient received second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), lot no. PEL9261, via an unspecified route of administration on 05Feb2021 as single dose for prevention of COVID 19 virus. No relevant medical history and no concomitant medications. The patient previously took the first dose BNT162B2 for COVID-19 immunisation (lot no. batch/lot number: EL1284). The patient received the first dose of the BNT162B2 on 15Jan2021. She had a reaction to the vaccine, had a mild reaction with first one she felt like if her heart warmed up and a burning sensation in her left side of the neck and face. She received the injection on her left side. She was kept for half an hour and then she had a mild headache and slept. She also had fever, pain at the injection site and felt very tired. She received the second dose of the vaccine 5 weeks ago. Several days after second dose on Saturday mornings, started having 100.2°F fever for two days and her whole body was aching. When the fever disappeared, she was very tired that week. Her right kidney started aching and then the left kidney, there were also bubbles in her pee and it went worse (no blood in the pee). A few weeks ago, she went to the urgent care, because a week before there were leucocytes in her urine and she took antibiotic. On Monday, she saw the urologist and the urologist sent her a CT scan and a blood test. The blood test results were abnormal so she didn't have a CT scan done because it could be dangerous. Her creatinine was high and her GFR was 41 (stage 3), she didn't know her kidney disease stage until they have the results (Monday). She was very healthy, didn't take drugs and there's no history of kidney disease in her family, also she exercised every day. She would like to know if something similar has been reported with the Pfizer-BioNtech Covid-19 vaccine because she's trying to understand these symptoms that came from nowhere. She knew the Covid-19 could cause kidney problems. She would like to know if there's any live virus in the Pfizer-BioNtech Covid-19 vaccine. She was normally completely fit and healthy. She did not have any abnormality whatsoever and no big medical history. She had the 2nd Pfizer job about 4-5 weeks ago and in the last 3 or 4 weeks at least, she has been having aching kidney, kind of oily bubbles in her urine and she went to see a doctor, a specialist to send her for some test. Today, she discovered that she got a high creatinine and low GFR so that meant have got at the moment, the picture was stage 3B Kidney disease. She had no family history of that. She never had any problems before. She just wondered whether there was any other case report like vaccine should be toxic to her kidneys. This was so out of the loose. Just so uncharacteristic. She stated that probably more than that, she thinks it started because she did not realize at first, it just made her feel tired, her kidney was aching because she was working too hard. It has developed over, it was hard to say. She had the second shot and she had fever for two days. She was so tired anyways. So, she was not exactly sure whether it began exactly when she had it but she certainly did not have it before or whether it came on a few days after or a week after, she was not sure but she knew that it has got worse and now, she was in a situation where she had a CT scan today (19Mar2021). So, she went to the doctor probably on Monday or Tuesday to find out exactly what was going on but she had absolutely no history of anything like this. She had no family history. She was completely healthy. She normally exercised, aerobic exercise most days. She was a healthcare professional (nutritionist). This had come as a complete shock to her today. She was phoning because she wanted to know if there were any other case reports. She knew it was very early and there was not much research on the vaccine but she did not know whether anybody else had reported having kidney problem. She knew you can get kidney problem with the actual disease, with the virus rather but she did not know if the vaccine could cause that. She knew it had something to do with the vaccine and obviously, it may be temporary and she can deal with it. She just needed tab a little bit insight of what to do next. She was not on her normal weight because she has put on about 5 or 6 pounds in the last few weeks. So, she thinks she had got so much fluid. She was normally 5 foot 5 (inches) and her weight was normally about 130 pounds. Actually, it was less than that so it was 127 or 128 pounds but at the moment she was 134. She had got lots of fluid in her body around her middle. When she had the second shot, she had the fever for two days on the Saturday and Sunday and got really tired on Monday and Tuesday and she went there and felt a little bit better but she cannot remember when her kidney started aching. She did not know if it was immediately or whether it was the next week. It started gradually and it had got worse in the last couple of weeks. So, the ache had got so much worse and the amount of bubbles in her pee and urinary symptoms had got worse in the last, at least probably 2 to 3 weeks or so. She had nothing at all before the second vaccination. She would say that it was shortly after she carried on feeling tired and then her kidney started aching and then she developed urinary symptoms. So, that was within a week to 2 weeks of having the shot. She definitely noticed that she had the symptoms and it may have been sooner. She was not entirely sure. It may have been the same week. She honestly cannot remember because it began gradually and she started to feel like she was getting cystitis and she did not think anything over it and then it got progressively, her kidney started hurting and she got really tired and then she just started having oily bubbles in my pee. When probed for the LOT# of vaccine, the first one looked like as EL1284, and the second one, it looked like PEL9261. It could be 4916. She had got the card but she did not know exactly. It was terrible writing. She was not sure it was hard to read. The first one was in her left shoulder and the second one was in her right shoulder. She felt it was related. It has taken incident from when she had the vaccine. Well, she was obviously not a 100 percent sure that was why she was phoning to ask if there is any other similar case report. When probed for the treatment, she stated no, not yet. She only found out today that what happened was she went to see a neurologist this week and on Monday and they organized her to have a CT scan today and some blood work and when she got to the CT scan center today and they looked at the blood work and they said that her levels were too abnormal to have the CT scan with the contrast dye. It would be dangerous. So, that was when she found out it was an abnormal result. So, it just happened today. So, she had not even seen the results of the scan yet and had not seen the doctor but she just knew that her blood was abnormal and her kidney was not functioning properly and trying to find out whether it was related to the vaccine because she needed to find out how to manage it going forward. She was hoping if it was due to the vaccine she can, it has been toxic stroke to her kidney and then she can workout how to deal with it hopefully reverse the situation but she had no Idea but she was just trying to get the feeling for what this could be. She did not have the results of the CT scan yet. She only got the results of the blood which said her kidney, when she went to have the scan her doctor asked her to have the scan and then to have a second scan to what they call a contrast dye and the technician said that when he looked at her blood results he said she cannot give her the contrast dye it was too dangerous. She needed to phone the doctor and so he phoned the doctor and the doctor said just do the scan without the contrast dye and they told her what the blood results were. So, she looked online and she can see that it was Stage 3B Kidney disease and she was in the stage of shock and she was feeling before she went to have this test that this was related to the vaccine because it has come since she has had the vaccine, so close to her having it so now she was more convinced and she just wanted to see anybody else has had this. Obviously, the doctor would not know about this because this was so new and so she needed to workout on how to deal with what has happened to her. Her creatinine was 2 and GFR was 41. With second one she had the fever for few days and she felt very tired, and then she developed some bladder symptoms, and she thought maybe she just had something like cystitis, and then she was very tired, her kidney started aching and particularly on the right hand side but on the left as well, it's got worse and worse to point that she got oil bubbles in her pee and she went to see neurologist on Monday, she had the blood test and today she got scan, a CT scan and she meant to have a consult after the scan with the scan but when they saw the blood result, which she has not seen, they said that was so abnormal they could not get her the contrast dye, so they said because of the result, she suddenly got out of nowhere and stage 3B kidney disease, and she had not gotten the result of the scan yet but she has sent in on stay, but she didn't at all feel well, haven't felt well since she had the vaccine she personally felt it had something to do with the vaccine because she did not have any family history of kidney disease or anything related to that and she never had an issue, never even had kidney infection so, she phoned up today to off Pfizer whether there have been any other case reports, because she had to go back and see her Urologist now and he won't know because it's obviously such early days with the vaccine and there not any proper Clinical Trials to, she would think to reflect this. She was concerned about the side effects and she just wanted to know because now, she knew had to deal with it, and she was, obviously that came as big shock to her that she just wanted to, if there have been any, she knew that the Covid virus can cause kidney disease, but I didn't know whether the vaccine has been showing to do that in any other individual. Results of tests and procedures for investigation of the patient on 15Mar2021: blood test, result: creatinine 2 and GFR 41. The outcome of fever and tired was recovering, while outcome of other events was unknown. Information on the lot/batch number has been requested.

blood clot; Right leg swelled and achy; Right leg swelled and achy; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable nurse (patient). A 67-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Batch/Lot Number: EP7534),dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 16Mar2021 (at the age of 67years) as single dose for Covid-19 immunization. Medical history included ongoing Beta thalassemias. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. The patient did not receive any other vaccines within 4 weeks prior to the COVID vaccine. The patient stated she has never had a problem with vaccinations, and she gets the flu vaccine every year. The patient reported that after the first injection coincidentally she did develop a blood clot in her lower leg. She thinks that it was due to a plane ride, but she has never had a blood clot before the injection. She added that she had the first dose on 16Mar2021 and developed a clot in a week. She further clarified that she got her first injection on 16Mar2021 and realized when she went on a flight, which is not that far she developed that clot and was having problems shortly after flight home on 24Mar2021 where her leg swelled up and she is on blood thinners since she went to the emergency room. She added that she developed the clot sometime between that flight and 02Apr2021. She had a doppler study on an unspecified date and it showed a blood clot. She stated that the outcome was she does not have the blood clot (as reported) but she will be on blood thinners and she needs to follow up on her scan to see if the clot issue is resolved but she will not have a doppler scan for another month or two and the blood thinner she is taking is Xarelto. She also stated that her right leg swelled up and it felt like a log. She reported it felt achy and swollen quite a bit from knee down and her leg was achy. It started between 24Mar2021 and by time she went to the emergency room she was not getting better. She had her symptoms for a week and toward the end of the week she thought she had a blood clot since it was not getting better it just got worse. She added that right now it is not swollen but she has been supine, and she does believe that it is better. The outcome of events was recovering. (As reported "outcome is unknown but pretty sure it has improved because of the blood thinners"./She stated she does not think it has resolved because it takes time for clots to resolve./She added that right now it is not swollen but she has been supine, and she does believe that it is better.) The reporter stated for the seriousness criteria for event blood clot: she believes as a nurse that any blood clot is extremely dangerous, and she was not hospitalized but obviously a blood clot is serious, and she could have ended up with pulmonary embolism. The seriousness for events right leg swelled and achy was reported as medically disabling. Causality assessment: Patient stated for the blood clot she has doubts if it was related to the vaccine but is it something that should be known about; for the leg swelling and achy she has doubts but it could have been the plane ride.; Sender's Comments: Based on the current available information, the reported events are most likely related to an intercurrent or underlying condition which is unlikely related to the suspected drug. The plane ride may provide an explanation for the events. The case will be reassessed if additional information becomes available.

To make a long story short, she was suppose to have the last vaccine last Friday. She postponed it for a week (postponed getting the second shot for a week). She wants to know what Pfizer thinks about her getting her second vaccine and her side effects. She says that somewhere between the 10th and 14th day, after receiving the vaccine the symptoms started and that was why she did not think she had a reaction to the vaccine. She has not had anything like that before, it was sort of a delayed reaction. She states she is better now. She had a few symptoms after the face things started and the only thing that she still has now is ringing in her ears. She states it all started around the same time as her face issues, or might have started a little after that. She confirms everything but ringing in her ears have completely resolved. She states that she did have some digestive disturbances, shortness of breath, and throbbing in her chest after receiving the vaccine. She asks if she can go back a little bit to explain. She states that last FEB2020 she was really sick with bad sinus infection not knowing about COVID at the time. She went to her allergist, then her family doctor, and then an ENT. She states that it was nothing like she has ever had, it was really bad. Sometime later she got these horrible digestive attacks, she has had acid reflux in the past but it was nothing like this. In March her husband had COVID and tested positive for COVID. She decided to get tested and she tested negative. She wonders if she had COVID earlier but at that time they were not testing for COVID. Her digestive problems stayed with her a really long time, and she was still on the medications her gastrointestinal doctor put her on. They are hypersensitive esophageal medication. She states that she has been exhausted all the time. The rest of the story she has told already. She states that after the face thing happened she started getting those digestive issues again. Her friend suggested that she call Pfizer, so she is doing that. She confirms that the vaccine card does not have an expiration date, NDC, or dosing information. She states it says 0.3 ml, but she cant see a point, so she doesn't know if its just 03. She states she got the vaccine to lessen her chances of getting a severe disease, in case she ends up in the hospital. Also, to keep herself safe from other people. She states she wants the second one because husbands works with the public and she wants to be protected when he comes home. She states that she has those gastrointestinal disturbances and is on amitriptyline 10 mgs for that. She states she also takes something for her thyroid but she has no major health issues. She states that she had a endoscopy and a colonoscopy as well as blood work done but she doesn't have any of the results because they are in her Beaumont chart where she actually got the vaccine. All of this was pre-vaccine so she doesn't know how relevant it is. The patient did not require a visit to Emergency Room, but visit to Physician Office. The only thing similar had a sister who reacted to a shingles vaccine, She has no information about her sisters reaction to the vaccine. Outcome of event ringing in ears was not recovered, for others was recovered. No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information is expected.

skin reaction; skin reaction red rash under both armpits; soreness in arm; ears would get warm feeling very hot; swelling in arm; ears would get warm feeling very hot; skin is dry from being inflamed; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 67-years-old female patient received the second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Formulation: Solution for injection, Batch/Lot Number: EN6203, expiration date not reported), on towards side of muscle in right arm via intramuscular on 02Mar2021 14:00 as single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included female surgery (caller stated she takes Miralax regularly every other day for the last 5 years for a female surgery and her female surgeon says she needs it to stay out but the ingredient is also in Miralax. Caller then stated she knew it was not that ingredient causing the reaction), pneumonia (Caller stated she had the Pneumonia shot). Concomitant medications included colecalciferol (D3) at units everyday from an unspecified date and macrogol 3350 (MIRALAX) taken for female surgery. The patient previously took zyrtec [cetirizine hydrochloride] for seasonal allergies like dust (Caller stated she usually takes Zyrtec for seasonal allergies like dust. Caller stated she took no Zyrtec at all for either shots) and received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Batch/Lot Number: EM9809), at the age of 67-years on bicep left arm upper muscle on 09Feb2021 14:00 for Covid-19 immunisation. On an unknown date the patient experienced skin reaction red rash under both armpits, soreness in arm, ears would get warm feeling very hot, swelling in arm, skin is dry from being inflamed. The report received as, Caller received the COVID vaccine and stated she had rosy red, inflamed armpits and when it would flare up her ears would get warm feeling, very hot, but not anywhere else and it was just mainly her bilateral armpits and then sometimes ears would get hot. She had second COVID 19 vaccine and also had first one. The first dose was on 09Feb2021 and she had swelling in arm after shot and has been using a cool cloth on it and was better by the next day. Caller then states she still feels it though and it has been five weeks. Caller states she tries to turn arm and can still feel it but it is not bad. Caller states a day later she had her first skin reaction which was a red rash under both armpits. She called primary care doctor and talked to nurse to see if she should try some other medication before second shot and the nurse recommended she should not get second shot that she should see an allergist. She got to building for second shot and talked to nurse there. She asked the nurse about the quality of first and second shot working together if she had waited and not got second shot. the nurse told her she would have to come back at least four days after the second shot was due or it would not work together. She went ahead and got the vaccine and it has not been life threatening as of now. She saw an allergist three days after second shot. She had rosy red inflamed armpits and when it would flare up her ears would get warm feeling, very hot, but not anywhere else and it was just mainly bilateral armpit and then sometimes ears would get hot. She would take Benadryl and her primary care physician told her to try to take Allegra 24 hours but caller stated it did not work that it only worked for 12 hours and not the full 24 hours. She took the Allegra medication on Sunday morning and that it worked for her for about 12 hours and she knew she could not take any more Allegra but the Benadryl seemed to help and her Allergist felt she made the right decision since her events are not life-threatening since it is not respiratory. The Allergist saw her armpits agreed the children Benadryl was working and that she should stick with that, but it is not going away been like this the whole time since 02Mar2021 and still having a reaction in her armpits, after the second shot the flare up was quicker because first shot was already in system still, it is not a flare up like when someone can not eat seafood and stuff like that. She still has a rosy armpit and probably will not see her HCP unless she gets bad but she will go to Allergist. She wanted to wait for second dose before contacting Pfizer to see what would happen. She is really blossoming under the armpits and they are rosy red but no blisters and her skin is dry from being inflamed all this time. She squeezes a rag under her armpits and that it is better during the day than at night, it is worse at night. She is only taking 20 mL of Benadryl in the morning and then evening before bed. The first shot right at the beginning she had to take Benadryl in the middle of the night as well but got to where she was taking it 12 hours apart before second dose. She hopes she is not having to walk around with compresses in the summer as it is easier when it is cold and that she hopes this fazes. Since she had not taken a shower or hot bath this morning that she had rosy red cheeks like a rosy red U on her face. Caller states her sister asked what did she did and she said nothing. Swelling in arm was from the first shot it was really hot like a boil but it was not red it just felt hot, she used a cold compress during the night like a washrag and by the next day it was fine. She got the shot on the left arm on purpose because she was left handed and could move it more but noticed the swelling stayed a while. When she got the second shot she asked the nurse to give in her back upper part of bicep in arm muscle since it was a better location and it did not swell up and it did not hurt. She can still feel exactly where she got the first shot. Swelling in arm was not terrible. her allergist felt she made the right decision since it is not life threating like respiratory related or closing of throat like food allergies just uncomfortable and annoying. Skin reaction red rash under both armpits was the event started the first day after the first shot then still having reaction from the second shot. She had the reaction a couple hours later and did wait half hour before leaving after getting the shot with the second shot she did not experience any swelling or soreness. The reason she went ahead and got the second shot at the medical building was she asked the nurse how many people had skin reaction before second shot. Ears would get warm feeling very hot, she only experienced it six times and it was usually at night or in the morning from the second shot. Every once in a it while flare up from the first. The hurt was always in the center of armpit not in the armpit. Skin was dry from being inflamed from past couple of days her skin has been dry. She has used hand cream but is afraid to put anything else on it because of reaction. The serious criteria is just annoying. She will probably put cream on it so it does not crack, it is very dry and it has not been dry like this. she has been putting water on at night which could have dried it out. Some days is worse than others more red and this was persisting. The second shot is much better and that she does not feel it at all. She can still feel where the vaccine went in left arm. It is annoying but it does not keep her from moving her arm and it has been five weeks. Since it is not going away it is serious. The soreness had not gone away before she got the second shot so double whammy. She guesses right now it is uncomfortable and that she has had better days. She is not taking Benadryl in middle of day like before but it is itchy so she is going to go out in the cold and work in yard, before first week or two she would use cool compresses all day and take Benadryl during day and then at night it petered out. She is hoping it will fade out eventually. Caller stated that the seriousness criteria is medically significant. She is taking Children Benadryl 20mL and would take at least every 6 six hours and was trying to hold off to now taking it 12 hours and will use cold compress if she has to. her primary care physician told her to try to take Allegra 24 hours but caller stated it did not work that it only worked for 12 hours and not the full 24 hours. She took the Allegra medication on Sunday morning and that it worked for about 12 hours and she knew she could not take any more Allegra. The medical ingredient was Fexofenadine HCL 180mg antihistamine. She only took one pill as it did not work. she had not had an an anaphylactic reaction yet. She is taking Children Benadryl 20mL and would take at least every 6 six hours and was trying to hold off to now taking it 12 hours and will use cold compress if she has to. Outcome of the events skin reaction red rash under both armpits, soreness in arm and skin is dry from being inflamed were not recovered and remaining events were unknown. No follow-up attempts are possible. No further information is expected.; Sender's Comments: As there is limited information in the case provided, the causal association between the events skin reaction, rash erythematosus and pain in extremity and the suspect drug BNT162B2 cannot be excluded.

Medical history included ongoing high cholesterol. She had been doing stair master for an hour each day. In 2020, when the Covid 19 virus was new she had a dinner with friends before they quarantined and one of those friends contracted the Covid 19 virus and died.

With the second dose her left side, where her glands are under her arm swelled up a little bit. It wasn't a big deal, but her biggest concern was that on 03Jun2021, five days after receiving the vaccine, she developed a twitching of the left eye. She called her eye doctor and he suggested that she should call Pfizer to see if it had been reported. She enquired if anything she could do before going to see an eye doctor. She wanted to know if eye twitching was reported with the Pfizer COVID vaccine. She mentioned that her friend (69-year-old female) went blind for two weeks after receiving the COVID vaccine. Although, her vision came back but she did lose it for two weeks. She has also experienced her gums in her mouth at the top and bottom looking as if they were bleeding but they were not they are just really red since 10Jun2021.

She reported that yesterday that she noticed her gums, 10Jun2021. The eye twitching started last Thursday, 03Jun2021. She reports she used to be an importer for Pfizer.

I developed swollen legs and feet two weeks after the second dose. Had bloodwork and urine done in march which revealed high levels of protein in my urine. Normal would be negative and my levels were at 3,000. I read that the immune system creates high levels of protein when vaccinated . Therefore wondered if this was the cause of this abnormal occurence. I had bloodwork and urine test done again in June and my levels are all back to normal. The swelling in the legs and feet are gone. Dr. suggested I come back for another workup at the end of the summer for another check up.

On 2/25/2021 at about 5:00 AM, my neck wouldn't turn. Normally, I was able to turn with no problem beforehand. It was like it was locked in place. I had to move my whole body to see to the side. The lymph nodes on both the left and the right of the neck were swollen, and they hurt when I touched them. My lymph nodes are still swollen, and the severity varies from day to day. My neck is still not as flexible as it was before 2/25, but it's much better now. I would say that I have regained about 80% of my movement. I went to Dr. on 4/1/2021. He said I should keep exercising my neck, which I have done, and he referred me for a scan. The scan indicated that there was a mass in the swollen lymph nodes, but they weren't cancerous.

I immediately sat down for 1 hour, felt I had something , like i felt possible slight chest tightness. I say I was fine until 3-4 hours later, I had extreme headaches. At 430pm, I still had the headaches and I took Tylenol 500mg. At night my headache got worse and it felt like I had the flu. I then went to bed and when I woke up my left arm felt intense like hornets and it was swollen. I then took another Tylenol and Ibuprofen 600mg. At 4am, I felt awful and horrible. I had joint pain with aches, felt nauseated. I called my PCP and he told me to take Prednisone 10mg. My fever was 101.4F. By the night my fever was gradually coming down and it was 102F. By the next day I felt much better. I also had Covid-19 on March 2020 and also got tested for antibody test in July 2020. I spoke with my PCP and he is recommending I do not take the 2nd dose injection.

About four days after the shot I started having a runny nose and a cough with lots of clear mucus from both. Then it went down to my lungs and my lungs really hurt . I do have asthma so maybe that?s a part of it? It just seems strange that I was coughing so much and gave me a headache. Then about six days later I got an attack of IBS. I haven?t had an attack like that for two years. Maybe it?s all a coincidence? Also about 3-4 days after shot I had a herpes outbreak.

Starting the first day I had muscle aches, swollen glands, headache, tiredness and chills, this lasted for three days. Then I did feel better for a few days but had some tiredness. Then Sunday the 28th my body seemed over whelmed with sweats and chills, I developed a rash in my groin area and realized that I had a yeast infection that was affecting my vaginal area, groin, and mouth. I have been treating this with a natural yeast complex and Monistat. I am starting to do better today but felt that I needed to report it to see if others were having the same problem. I feel that the injection adversely affected my body's normal hemostasis and the yeast was the results. I am not looking forward to getting the next shot. I think I did have Covid 19 in late January or early February before it was widely known and there were no tests. I will keep treating myself with natural remedies as chemicals will just inflame the yeast at this time. This is not life threatening but wanted to report the abnormal reaction I have experienced.

I received the vaccine at 9AM on March 1st in my right arm. Everything was fine until 3 PM when my right arm started swelling. I ran a temperature of 100.1, had fatigue and a headache, in addition to aches and pains. By Tuesday morning my right arm from the injection site to the elbow was twice it's normal size. My chest and underarm area were both significantly swollen. I had an 8:30 AM appointment on Tuesday with an allergist who advised me to take Benadryl, which I did. By Wednesday, my chest and abdominal area were both swollen. I had a lymphedema therapy appointment because I have lymphedema on my left side due to node removal. The therapist measured both arms and they were both swollen, including my chest and abdomen. The therapist advised me to see my oncologist as swelling in the Right Arm, (where i received the shot) was normal for COVID shots, but she could not explain the swelling in the chest or abdomen. Other than that my lymphatic system was working overtime. I called my oncologist on Thursday March 4, and they fit me in. Doctor examined me and he couldn't explain to me why I was swelling up the way I was. He has only seen arm swelling in his breast cancer patients. He is referring me to get a PET scan and advised me to see a breast surgeon as maybe the surgeon would know more about the lymph nodes.

Guillain-Barre syndrome; achy arm; tingling sensation from head to toe/whole body was tingling/weird and scary on and off sensation; This is a spontaneous report from two contactable consumers (patient's cousin and patient herself). A 68-year-old female patient received her second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number: EN6201), via an unspecified route of administration in right arm on 10Feb2021 10:30 AM at a single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included anxiety. It was reported that the patient was "physically fit. She was thin and was about 5 feet." Ongoing concomitant medications included escitalopram (reported as "generic Lexapro") for anxiety, calcium, and multivitamins. The patient previously received flu vaccine in Oct2020. She also had her first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number: EL9262) via an unspecified route of administration in left arm on 20Jan2021 10:30 AM for COVID-19 immunization and felt a little soreness in arm and light headache the same day. Two nights later, her scalp felt on fire and had tingling sensation in her face for three weeks. A week after the first dose, her blood pressure went up to 210/101. She went to the hospital, they controlled her pressure and put her on a pressure pill 1 a day (amlodipine). She mentioned she had felt a weird sensation and noticed some spikes in her blood pressure. Her physician told her to take another 2.5 mg amlodipine if needed. After her second dose, she went to sleep with achy arm. she woke up that night with a tingling sensation from head to toe. Her whole body was tingling. It was a weird and scary on and off sensation. She stated it had improved during the past two days. The patient confirmed that she had no heart rate problems. She actually experienced high blood pressure instead. She never had numbness, instead she had a tingling sensation still present. She mentioned her 97-year-old mother and husband both got the two doses with no complication or reactions. The patient's cousin was "pretty sure that it's Guillain-Barre." The patient stated the Guillain-Barre syndrome has not yet been confirmed. She had an appointment with a neurologist. The outcome of 'tingling sensation from head to toe/whole body was tingling/weird and scary on and off sensation' was recovering, of remaining events was unknown.

I had a herpes sore erupt on my left arm exactly two weeks after the second dose of Pfizer Covid 19 vaccine. I usually have this erupt about once a year after exposure to sunlight or stress, but I had not been in the sun. I did apply acyclovir ointment to it and it is getting better. I also developed what looks to be psoriasis on my left elbow. Frankly, I do not know if these two incidents are related to the vaccine, but I thought that I should report it just in case others had experienced similar occurrences. I do have a doctor's appointment scheduled later this month and I will mention it to my doctor as well.

The patient reported the pharmacist gave EpiPen in thigh and 20 mg tablet of Benadryl and called 911, and took her to the local hospital. Patient also reported that she has not seen this doctor yet she asked to see her and has an appointment with her. The patient also stated that her new PCP was not aware of the reaction to the vaccine at this time. The patient further mentioned that she was still having a rash that broke out. She reported that her tongue was tingling and she still has some swelling in her lips.

The patient clarified the location of the rash as a rash on both arms that was inside of both of the arms, like a pink rash, she states it was on face and on knees around the front and back of her knees like a red rash. She continues it was on the neck down to the collar bone around the back of her neck, like if she was a bust statue it would be all in that area from the collar bones at that point up and around the back of the shoulder blades. It goes all the way around face and neck. Patient also further reported that she had a scary reaction last night (07Mar2021), she said she had blood in her stool, leaking blood around rectum and it had like a burning itch, when she wiped it was blood, she continued to say when she wiped it was like 'giblets.'

She has two Epi Pens from the drug store that was prescribed but she was afraid to use it, and she thought to see what happens if she uses the Benadryl. She received the Epi shot at the drug store, at (pharmacy), when her reaction broke out, on 06Mar2021, in her thigh, for the allergic reaction. This was her first time ever receiving EpiPen (Lot 029F20AA, expiration Mar2022, and NDC is 0093-5986-27). The ER doctor prescribed her 0.3 mg every 5-15 minutes as needed for anaphylaxis, and not to exceed 3 doses. She received the Benadryl at the drug store, 120mg tablet, first dose was given at drug store. Patient reported she was given prednisone IV in hand through IV at ER, she doesn't know how much that was, then was given Prednisone to go home with- 20mg tablets take 2 a day for 4 days, which she started Sunday morning, 07Mar2021. She was told she experienced a life threatening allergic reaction. Patient was taken to the ER in the ambulance, the paramedic who was with her said she was his first COVID reaction patient. ER doctor told her not to take the second dose of Pfizer vaccine, and to be cautious if taking the EpiPen, she states her heart was racing because of the EpiPen and was told it was because she was not younger that her body did not handle the Epi like younger people do and was told she could have a heart attack from the EpiPen. She was scared because she was not covered fully, since she can't get the second shot of Pfizer, and she was afraid of the Epi Pen, so she was really in a tough spot. ER doctor stated she may be able to take the Johnson and Johnson vaccine, as the second, but she needs to talk to her Primary care about that. The ER doctor continued to tell her it would have to be a special case where she was in a hospital setting in case she has another serious reaction, she was concerned for not receiving the second dose because that means she was not completely covered with one vaccine. She was afraid of the Epi-Pen since she can get a heart attack from it because of her age. The patient mentioned she was tested in Oct (clarified as 14Oct2020) for Covid due to having a viral infection at that time but was negative. Added the ER paper work says ED anaphylaxis. The patient wanted to ask about finding out the ingredients in Pfizer vaccine and the ingredients in the Johnson and Johnson vaccine. She saw the list on the fact sheet of Pfizer's ingredients and in a few places it says Potassium, 3 different ingredients, and several months ago, she quit eating bananas, bananas have potassium, and they were giving her stomach upset, diarrhea, she used to eat them all her life, she noticed that there was a lot of potassium in the medicine. Doctor wanted to know if she would be able to take the Johnson and Johnson vaccine. He said if she got the second shot, of the Johnson and Johnson, that it would have to be a special case, like in a hospital setting, and there would have to be medical people in a medical center, to take care of her was she has a reaction to it as well. He advised that she take the Johnson and Johnson than not taking it, because by not taking it, she was very vulnerable to catching COVID 19. And patient wanted to know was it a preservative that was causing the reaction. It was reported that rash began around 10PM, bloody stool began between 11 PM and 12:30 AM, all other symptoms within 15-20 minutes, it began around 6PM, maybe sooner 5:55 PM, she was in denial, it felt like tongue and lips tingling, she did have a reaction before to a different shot. The anaphylactic reaction required emergency room visit. Patient was not hospitalized and was in observation in ER. On 08Mar2021, the patient recovered from blood in stool, rectal bleeding, and burning and itching with bleeding. The patient had not yet recovered from severe allergic reaction, hot face and neck was flushed, tingling in tongue, lips, face; lips were puffy, and rash.

The patient was hospitalized for sepsis due to a gallbladder attack from 25Feb2021 to 03Mar2021. The events gallbladder attack and sepsis required also an ER visit. They did not require a physician office visit. Additional clinical course of the events included the following details. Gallbladder attack turned into infection/sepsis quickly. She previously had an emergency stent placed in her bile duct and now there was a stone in the bile duct and she was unsure if it was related; they will either remove her gallbladder or place a permanent stent. They removed stones and "goop" and placed a stent. Her gallbladder still needed to be operated on, but she was not sick with sepsis anymore. Regarding gallbladder attack the patient reported that it was controlled until further tests and surgery were performed.

Sepsis resolved the day she was discharged from hospital and when she was dismissed all tests were negative for sepsis. She went home on antibiotics for security for another week after discharge from hospital. Dizzy: it was just trying to get her strength up. She'll just be doing nothing and getting up too fast, it happened to any old person with blood pressure medicines. Dizziness began before she went into the hospital.

A few days after my shot I started feeling very tired and groggy. My head was dizzy most of the day. Five days after the vaccination I started to go into a sweat if I exerted myself too much. I continued to have a dizzy head and my stamina was greatly reduced. I used to ride my exercise bike for 90 -150 minutes a day but after the vaccine I could only go 20 minutes the first week and then I got progressively weaker and more dizzy. I could barely walk a half block. I also experienced some shortness of breath and a racing heart at times. The third week out was the worse. I could hardly care for myself. I started to get a lot of pain behind my eyes and other sinus pressure. Also the lymph gland under my ear was swollen and painful. I was extremely tired for a couple of days at that point but have found it hard to sleep on most other nights. I have strange dreams that are almost like an hallucination. I also have head aches but they seem to have improved as the weeks have gone by, especially since I have been taking Aleve every day. I am unable to exercise and have very little energy still. The dizzy head continues to persist even 6 weeks out. I had this same kind of dizzy head in August when I had Covid but it went away in a week or two. I get dizzy just reading a book or looking at my piano music also. Having had Covid twice I am very confident that these symptoms were caused by this vaccination. It also seemed to make my blood sugar more volatile. The sad thing is that I was feeling perfectly normal when I went in! I am devastated by these symptoms and they have completely altered my life. I am so discouraged that they never go away. Some days I feel like I am improving and then they pop up again. I was a very active person and now I can hardly do anything. I think I got the shot too close to when I had covid and that it has triggered an immune response that is overwhelming my body. Will it ever get better? I can't stand to go on like this!

She got the vaccine at 2:00, around 4:00 she started with fatigue with headache, dizziness, somewhat blurry vision (not extreme), chills up her full spine to her head from the bottom. She also at that time noticed a lump on her right arm and difficulty raising her arm straight out due to severe intensity of pain. She had difficulty of neurological function and paralysis and reaction of the right leg to just above the knee into her toes. She had paralysis feeling and also heavy swelling that was noticed by 6:00 that day. She also noticed that night that no position gave her comfort to be able to sleep, which kept going and she still has the paralysis, numbness, chills, fatigue. The headaches are getting sharper, more intense in her right temple area which is very sharp, which is not normal for her. The tumor she had gave her squeezing headache pain across her eyes and the to of her head but not the temples. The 2nd shot brought about 3 days of wheezing, which she does not have any lung or heart issues. She has been having difficulty with just having normal breathing patter as she does not feel it is quite right for getting oxygen as it had been prior. She went to her PCP last Friday, 4/16/21 who has ordered an MRI. He has consulted with the neuro-specialist that she had with her tumor. He will follow through with more blood work more than likely. He did mention to her about having a COVID test to double check that end of that. She did not have this done due to the fact that she had the brain tumor surgery and that is how they did that approach. She was just staring to have resolution of some of her symptoms from the 1st vaccine from the right leg when she got this one.

They also did a vision test to check for neurological damage; they told her that everything seemed asymmetrical but she didn't agree.; Lip swelling; facial swelling; it starts to tingle.; lip was numb; This is a spontaneous report received from a contactable consumer (patient) via team. A 68-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 ((PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, formulation: Solution for injection, Lot Number: EN6200) dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in left arm on 22Feb2021 12:30 (at the age of 68-year-old) as single dose for covid-19 immunisation.

If she decides to wait and go with another manufacturer, how long does she have to wait before she can start another series.

She reported that her mild headache turned severe over the weekend, and she had to wrap a towel around the back of her head, so she could lay down. She said the headache pain was a sharp pain at the bottom of the back of her head and neck. She clarified she had migraines when she was 12 or 13 years old, but the headache pain she had now is nothing like the migraines she had then. She further clarified that her severe headache feels like a knife in the back of her head and neck. She said the pain is more severe on the right side of her head than the left. She said right now she has pressure in the front of her head with a slight headache. She additionally clarified that the swelling in her left eye comes and goes and is persisting.

She said the headache pain feels like it is as big as a golf ball. She said her headache pain is so severe, the headache pain wakes her up in a cry. She said the headache pain lasts 15-20 minutes, and then eases up slightly. She said the headaches have been happening twice at night, and twice during the daytime. She said the headache pain doesn't last long. She mentioned that she has been doing self-remedies.

One week after Vaccine #1 I began to have swelling & itching of the face-eyes, lips and cheeks, extreme itching of both hands, massive diarrhea and some difficulty swallowing. I took oral benadryl (50 mg) and prednisone (@ 50 mg) and applied cold packs to my face and hands. I also took Allegra 180 mg LA 2x/daily for two weeks after the reaction. Vaccine dose 2 was administered on 2/17/2021 (Pfizer, Lot # EN6201) at Hospital, . One week after that (2/25/2021) I again had facial swelling and itching and massive diarrhea. I took Benadryl 25 mg and Allegra 2x/day and continue to do so. The facial swelling/itching continued. In addition I had, since the first vaccine, extreme fatigue, resulting in a decrease in my ability to walk (down from 3 miles to just over 1 mile) and to swim (shortness of breath, reduction in ability to swim laps). I visited my Rheumatologist on 3/2/2021 and he administered an injection of methylprednisolone to try and tamp down the continuing reaction. That seems to have made a difference.

The patient received her first covid dose on 3/1/21. She developed right facial rash and swelling about 8 days after vaccine.

So, I have been on the Benadryl for the last two days.

It was hard/where she got the injection; It looked like it was connected to the breast because it was so huge.; Fever blister; heart beating so out of rhythm; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable nurse (patient). A 69-year-old female patient received the second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Batch/Lot Number: EN6207), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in arm left on 18Mar2021 at 12:20 (at the age of 69-years-old) as a single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included ongoing coeliac disease; hypothyroidism, is diabetic and has irregular heartbeat from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing. Concomitant medications included levothyroxine taken for hypothyroidism; hydrochlorothiazide, olmesartan medoxomil (OLMESARTAN/HCTZ MYLAN) taken for blood pressure measurement; metformin, glipizide and pioglitazone hcl taken for diabetes mellitus; acetylsalicylic acid (ASPIRIN 81) taken for thrombosis; metoprolol taken for heart rate irregular, cyanocobalamin (VIT B12) taken for an unspecified indication, all from an unspecified start date and ongoing; famotidine, rosuvastatin, vitamin d2, vitamin d3 and potassium, all taken for an unspecified indication, start and stop date were not reported. The patient previously received the first dose of BNT162B2 (lot number: EN6198, NDC: 59267-1000-1, expiry: unknown) on 27Feb2021 at 1:40PM for COVID-19 immunisation. The patient got her last shot on 18Mar2021. The first day was fine. She woke up the next morning at three or four with her heart beating so out of rhythm it was crazy. It took almost the whole day. She called her cardiologist and couldn't get into them and she didn't want to go to the ER. She didn't have a way to prove any of that. She also got a baseball sized lump. It was hard. If she laid her arm on it, it was painful on the left side where she got the injection between her left breast and axilla. It extended underneath the axilla. She wasn't able to get in with the cardiologist because she waited to late in the day. She couldn't get off the couch that day because her heart was so out of rhythm. She was very tired and wanted to just lay down. She hates going to the hospital. She doesn't want to go to the hospital. She has a history of irregular heartbeats. She should have gone in and had an EKG. She has pictures of the lump if those are needed. HCP information: Her doctor had said if she had anything like any abnormal heart beats to come in and get an EKG. She also had a fever blister on 22Mar2021 that she hasn't had in years and was asking if this influences her immune system. She had the lump and that was in the lymph node and now a fever blister on the top lip. Heart beating so out of rhythm: it lasted all that day. She took a nap after she talked to the doctor's office and slept for several hours. When she woke up it was kind of back in rhythm, but it was going in and out. It wasn't as frequent as it was prior to nap. Prior to the nap it was almost continuous. It slowed down a lot on the 19Mar2021 and was gone by 20Mar2021. Outcome of event: She has PAC's and PVC's anyway. That is why she follows up with the cardiologist. They haven't been so out of rhythm as they were after the vaccine. She couldn't go back to sleep. She still has them occasionally and that is kind of normal for her. She was weak and tired. Baseball sized lump: it has gone down. She took pictures to show her friends who were all getting the shots. It is gone now. It might have started on 20Mar2021. She woke up with the lump on Saturday. She has recovered completely. Her daughter said she needed to get it checked out. Reporter had heard of a lump on the breast was a side effect. It looked like it was connected to the breast because it was so huge. Seriousness criteria: It was irritating because it was so big. It was painful if she put her arm down. It was like her breast were engorged. Causality: Heart beating so out of rhythm: she hasn't had it that bad, so she thinks it was. She had it a long time ago, maybe once before, but it never lasted that long or took her down like that. She is not the only one that has had the complaint of irregular heartbeats. She put on social media what she experienced and how weak she got. Several friends said that happened to them as well. She doesn't know their history. Reporter declined to do a report on her friends. That was another reason she didn't go to the hospital. She thought it was a normal side effect. She thinks she found on her paperwork about the lump in the lymph nodes. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included electrocardiogram: unknown results and heart rate: irregular on an unspecified date. The outcome of the event fever blister was not recovered, while of the rest was unknown. Reporter seriousness for heart beating so out of rhythm was reported as disabling.; Sender's Comments: Based on the information currently available and the plausible temporal relationship, a possible contributory role of suspect product BNT162B2 to the reported events 'heart beating so out of rhythm ', 'baseball sized lump (where she got the injection/It looked like it was connected to the breast because it was so huge)' 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.

Patient is a 69-year-old woman with newly diagnosed pericarditis in March 2021, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and hypothyroidism, who presented to the Emergency Department (ED) with progressively worsening chest pain, dyspnea, and fatigue. Patient was in her usual state of health until 3/1/2021, when she developed sudden-onset pain "across the entire chest". She shares that her symptoms "came out of the blue", as "suddenly one day, everything just hurt". She saw her primary care physician, who initially felt her symptoms were due to acid reflux. As such, the patient started "eating antacids and omeprazole like candy". However, her chest pain persisted, prompting her to follow up with her primary care physician on 3/16/2021. At that time, ECG reportedly showed normal sinus rhythm and no acute changes. CT of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis with contrast showed abnormal enhancement and thickening of the pericardium with trace pericardial fluid, consistent with pericarditis. The patient was therefore started on colchicine and an ibuprofen taper. On 4/5/2021, Patient sent a myVM portal message to her primary care physician and cardiologist, expressing her belief that her chest pain has remained unchanged over the past month. She continues to experience a constant burning sensation throughout her chest, aggravated by deep inspiration and alleviated by lying flat on her back. She shares that walking up the stairs at home leaves her "breathless". Associated symptoms include subjective fevers, chills, and night sweats. Given these symptoms, Patient underwent a chest x-ray, which showed findings consistent with an enlarging pericardial effusion. Patient was then advised to present to the ED for further workup as an inpatient. At time of hospital admission, patient endorses persistent chest pain during inspiration. Prior to 3/1/2021, she has never experienced these symptoms and reports no history of pericarditis. The most strenuous physical activity she has undertaken in the last month include working in the garden and caring light boxes down the stairs. She is most concerned about the fluid around her heart. Patient reports no nausea, vomiting, palpitations, constipation, diarrhea, or abdominal pain. Of note, the patient developed pericarditis 10 days after her second COVID-19 vaccine. Hospital Course # Sub-acute pericarditis with enlarging pericardial effusion Pericarditis initially diagnosed in March 2021, thought to be potentially from her COVID-19 vaccine given time course as no other clear etiology apparent. Pt was hemodynamically stable with an elevated jugular venous pressure at time of admission, with CXR consistent with an enlarging pericardial effusion. Echo 04/05 with small circumferential pericardial effusion but no tamponade physiology. Cardiac MRI on 4/7 with enlargement of moderate-sized pericardial effusion but otherwise negative exam, with no evidence of myocarditis or infiltrative myocardial process. ANA screen negative, rheumatoid factor and anti-CCP not elevated Blood cultures x 2 with no growth - CRP continued to remain > 160 with ibupofen and colchicine. Prednisone 20 mg PO daily was added on 4/7, with subsequent improvement in patient's symptoms. - Discharged on regimen of prednisone 20 mg PO daily and colchicine 0.3 mg PO daily (reduced from 0.6 mg daily that she was taking prior to admission). She will also continue using ibuprofen 800 mg BID. - Follow-up with Dr (cardiology) next week to follow-up on hospitalization and decide upon tapering plan for her medications

He patient's husband reported that something was happening with his wife (patient), and he cannot find the patient's symptoms on the website. It was reported that the patient had the second shot of Pfizer vaccine 3 weeks ago, this past Sunday. The second shot was given in the patient's right arm, and the first shot was given in the left arm. Everything was normal for close to three weeks. Then on Sunday, on 24Apr2021, the patient lost her voice all of a sudden. She couldn't talk, seemed to be completely out of it, and the patient's husband thought that she was having a stroke.

The patient's husband reported that on Apr2021, the patient's right breast was diagnosed with cellulitis so the patient received a couple of IV (intravenous antibiotics) for the breast and it slightly improved.

The patient was also given IV antibiotics for breast enlargement, breast swelling, and breast infection. On Apr2021, the patient experienced side effects mass in her throat, swollen lymph nodes on her right breast, and cellulitis.

This 69 years old female consumer received the first single dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) on 28Apr2021 in the afternoon, in left arm, for COVID-19 immunization. No other vaccine was administered on the same day. Family medical history relevant to AEs: none. Medical history included brain surgery on 27Apr2020, heart thing, allergic to latex and metals and she was overweight. She has never had a reaction to medications. She gained 40 pounds. She was at 260, and now she was 250 because she lost 10 of that. She had for 30 or 40 years (no further details provided). Concomitant medications were none. The patient got the shot and after that they did not hold her, she just left. She did not feel the injection at all, she was wondering at first if he actually gave it to her because he was very good. She went to the grocery store. She had brain surgery last year, so she was weak anyways. After having brain surgery she could shop for, like she built up to an hour, really and had no problems. She stopped for breakfast and she was fine. She got in the store and just started walking through the store. She had trouble breathing (maybe around 45 minutes to an hour after vaccination) and was leaning on the cart because she was so weird. It went away maybe the next day or the day after. She got about three things and then went to the line and got out of the store. She went home and did not remember when the spot showed up, maybe hours after before she noticed it. It was a raised spot like a bug bite on top of her left (no further details provided). She thought a spider must have bit her. Then, she went to bed and the next day she had hives all over her which were practically on top of each other. It was really bad hives and only from the knees up for some reason, none on her toes or her feet just her knees up and it was horrible. She was tired, weak, and felt ill so she stayed in bed a lot on 28Apr2021. She slept for practically the whole time the next 4 days. She went to the doctor the day after for the hives and he said it was Covid Arm. She was not sure if she was allergic to the shot itself or like a bad reaction happened here. She went in and had them check, and he searched on the internet. That was why she will not be going back to that doctor. It hurt just a little bit, no big deal. It hurt and was red around it. It was more like Covid body. She had headache on 28Apr2021 and then chills on 29Apr2021 and it was like she had the flu only she did not throw up. Chills were intermittent and on and off all day whether she was in bed or up or under a lot of covers or not. On 02May2021 she got nauseated (intermittently, a lot of nausea). She took a lot of Benadryl. She was sleeping good because she took Benadryl. She still had headaches and she woke up with it. It was kind of dull for four days. It probably came on she was going to say almost instantly but she could have been stressed about getting the shot. At the time of report it was worse than it was. She also had swelling on her face and lips on 02May2021 but she also had hives in the same spots that it was swelling. Right at the top of her forehead, and the top of her lip but she thought it may have been a hive because she had a hive on her lip and three or four on her forehead. She thought it was more than that and there was swelling because she was allergic. Her throat did not close up. She had legs swollen on an unknown date in May2021. She did not think this had anything to do with the shot. She did not think it was from an allergic reaction on that part. She thought she was probably allergic to it because she had so many hives. She was scared to death of getting the second one. She was feeling really good when she walked in, she was walking good and everything, and she went out to eat and the store. It was quite long but truthfully when she got out of bed, she would just go to her couch. As of last night, the trouble breathing was there but she had not been up long enough to see. She was going to therapy later. She was very vivid because she was doing so much better because of the operation. She was still feeling weak but sometimes it got better and then she got weak again. Her body was compromised and everything because of her operation. She wanted to get the shot because she did not go out many places. Hives all over her started as a few, so she went to the doctor because it was quite a few. The next day, they were so much worse. The patient stated she sounded like she was hypochondriac. Benadryl was all she took for treatment and took it as often as the box allowed, she thought 2 every 4 to 6 hours. The events did not require ER visit. Relevant tests: none. Chills lasted about five days off and then went away on 03May2021. Hives resolved on 05May2021. Swelling in the face and lips resolved on an unspecified date in May2021. Headache and legs swollen had not yet resolved. The other events outcome was unknown. Information on the lot/batch number has been requested.

A 69-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) via an unspecified route of administration, administered in left arm on 16Apr2021 14:57 (Batch/Lot Number: EW0164) as 1st dose, single for COVID-19 immunisation. The patient had relevant medical history and no concomitant medications. On 17Apr2021, the patient had a sore arm, felt off/mild lethargic but that was an expected result of a vaccine injection. Two weeks later in the evening on 03May2021, she had something that had never happened before. She experienced sudden onset itchy face, it felt warm, and her face was extremely red from her forehead down to chin. Her face became swollen, red and itching. This came on quickly. Her face was huge, swollen around eyes, itching like crazy. She was just sitting on couch after dinner and started itching all of a sudden. When she went to the bathroom to see, her face was the reddest and she looked like a tomato and her face was swelling. Her eyes were swollen the next morning and she had hive like bumps and streaks of red welts on her neck. Patient stated 'I got a terrible case of hives and my face swell up and it was extremely itchy and painful I mean really bad, I have never anything like this happen in my life.' Her face was literally on fire it was itching terrible, it was very swollen my eyes, where to the point that you could barely see out of them. The next day, she took a diphenhydramine (BENADRYL) but that did nothing. She confirms she got the first shot on Tuesday, 04May2021. The Benadryl, she confesses she threw it out because she hadn't used any since 2015 and it was expired. She did get a brand pack but did use this one. She has no UPC, Lot, or Expiry. The Benadryl didn't phase it. On 05May2021, it started to develop on the top of her hands. On 06May2021, she contacted the doctor and got an appointment where she was given prescribed prednisone - 20 mg for 3 days to treat it. It was in a pharmacy bottle, a round peach tablet, and says use before 06May2022 but there is no NDC, manufacturer, or Lot on the bottle. When she got the medication on Thursday she was told to take it only in morning because she could get jittery, people cant sleep sometimes when taking it at night. She started it Friday morning. She reported she got jittery from prednisone but that the swelling started going down. The patient coughs during the call and remarked the prednisone made her hoarse for some reason. After using the prednisone, she got funny things on her arm that looks like the measles. She started to develop a rash on her forearms that resembled measles and developed water blisters in between her fingers and down at her ankle. It was between her wrist and elbow on the underside of her arms. She was also really itchy over her body. There were water blister outbreaks on her ankles and between finger. She noted this was after the prednisone. Patient stated 'I am still itchy and stuff like as far other places on my body now the things are erupting.' She had an appointment with dermatologist next Wednesday. The redness, swelling and itching on her face has resolved at this point but her face was shedding. She explained that her face was so dry and skin was shedding off. She had not been outside and worried would she have a reaction to things since this has happened. It was noted she saw a nurse practitioners and next week she will have a head to toe dermatologist appointment. She was forwarding the information from this event to the dermatologist to review with her normal appointment that was scheduled months ago. She wanted to know if this had been reported before and if she should get the second dose of the vaccine after having this reported reaction. Patient stated 'At this point, I don't plan on pursuing going for the next injection until I get some really solid data about what is happen here that I had this kind of reaction. I have number or references going to find Pfizer vaccine I have various things in whatever but I yet to come across anybody that had just particular reactions.' She didn't take any lab test. They didn't draw any blood or anything like that they just looked at her face and stopped by. She was hoping to get blood drawn to try to figure out what happened here. Outcome of 'her face became swollen/ face was huge/ face swell up, itchy face/ itching, and face was extremely red from her forehead down to chin/ face became swollen and red' was recovered in May2021; while outcome of remaining events was unknown. No follow-up attempts are possible. No further information is expected.

69 y.o. female that presented to my office with a 5 day history of weakness on her right side. In particular, she states her right arm, right face, and right torso was numb when she woke up on Saturday morning, May 29th. She initially thought she just had some radicular symptoms going down her right arm as she has had before. However, she does admit that the facial numbness did concern her. She had a headache that morning, but no headache after that. She states that some of the sensation has come back a little bit in the right arm and hand. However, she still can not hold anything without up falling out of her hand because she can not feel it. She denies any weakness in the right side of her body. She denies any facial droop. She does think her vision may have gotten a little bit worse, but this is difficult to tell because she does usually have poor vision. Because of her symptoms in the office, I thought it was best that I admit her for observation in order to rule out acute stroke. I sent her for a stat head CT which did come back showing a subacute left-sided CVA. Further workup is underway. Active Hospital Problems Diagnosis Date Noted ? Right sided numbness 06/02/2021 ?

This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 69-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) at 69-year-old, dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 25Feb2021 (Lot Number: EN6202) as 1st dose, single for covid-19 immunisation.

Concomitant medication included levothyroxine taken for Hyperthyroid, Graves disease, Thyroid replacement, hypothyroidism from 1980 to an unspecified stop date (patient started back in 1980.

Her because autoimmune flared up 2019 so she uses this instead of prolia); cyanocobalamin (B12 [CYANOCOBALAMIN]) taken for Supplement/ she is on because of her age, start and stop date were not reported (She has been on for maybe 2 years or a year and a half). The patient previously took second dose of Hepatitis B vaccine in 1980 for immunisation and experienced Difficulty breathing, caller states her understanding is that she was an employee and they filed a report on this for her. They had not ever had a reaction. She was in the hospital with difficulty breathing after her second Hepatitis B Vaccine shot. They told her the third shot would kill her. Caller does not have manufacturer or any additional information regarding this vaccine. She was just told she can not have the third shot; hydroxychloroquine phosphate (PLAQUENIL) from 1987 (reported since 1987-1988) to 2013 (but she is not sure) for Systemic Lupus and experienced Retinopathy/bad eyes/ dead spots on her retina and trouble seeing. caller states she cannot see this information because she has bad eyes because of a medication she was on for a disease. She reacted to a drug. This occurred while she was on Plaquneil, caller confirms spelling, and states that her original diagnosis was Systemic Lupus and it built up in the central portion of her retina so she had retinopathy due to drug toxicity from the medication she was on for her disease. She has dead spots on her retina and trouble seeing unless she gets direct sunlight. She states it is spelled Plaquneil or iel, she does not know. She had the generic brand which caller states is hydroxychloroquine. She states the problem is with her eye doctor they gave her a safe dose of 400 mg and because of her size, they felt like she was getting the same dose of a man that was 300 pounds would have gotten. She had been on it since 1987-1988 and then she was thinking she was taken off of it in 2013 but she is not sure because she is still getting routine checks to see how much damage the drug did. She has been off of it for so long she does not know any additional product details. Caller adds she just knows she went to a male doctor and complained about her vision issues and they did tests that they were going to run. He told her to accept the fact that she is getting old. She switched from him to a female doctor. She failed every test, so they instantly removed her from it. caller has no additional details to provide about the hydroxychloroquine or Hepatitis B Vaccine. She states her rheumatologist handles all of this. she confirms she was on hydroxychloroquine but refers to as Plaquneil. She confirms her spelling; prednisone; denosumab (PROLIA); shingles shot for immunization, shingles shot bruising and hot where they put it but did not last long. Additional vaccines same day was none. Prior vaccinations 4 weeks was none. patient has an autoimmune disease and when she got her first vaccine 25Feb2021 she had to wait a half hour because she has had a reaction to the second Hepatitis Vaccine which they stopped back in the 80s. Caller had Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine, and started a fever before she left. Caller adds she had a sore throat and she felt like lymph nodes were enlarged (25Feb2021). She adds that this all occurred over the weekend. Lymph nodes enlarged: the lymph nodes in her neck swelled so bad mostly largest on the right side that she could hardly open her mouth. She could not get her thyroid pill, it was difficult to eat or drink. The doctor determined that it was the Hepatitis B vaccine that it was from, and it was hard for them to examine her. caller clarifies that she meant it was the Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine it was from, and that she misspoke. Caller adds that she had a previous reaction to the Hepatitis B vaccine and that is what she meant. Everything she is reporting is on the Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine. She does not provide any additional information regarding her thyroid pill. She clarifies that is was hard for them to examine her, because she could not open her mouth hardly at all to get anything in and that. She adds she has health problems. She called the clinic because of how her first vaccine went and spoke with the head of education department. She checked things out for her and from what she told her what happened she did not know if she contacted Pfizer or not, but the woman said she should follow up with her doctor orders and get the second shot. Sore throat, fever, lymph nodes enlarged: started the evening after the first vaccine, it started with a fever and a sore throat. She is not still having a sore throat. She does have an autoimmune disease and does run fevers on and off. She was not concerned about her fever until it got much worse, it went as high as 102 (her normal temperature is 97.4-97.9). It went up to 102. And then her lymph nodes got excessively large. Caller does not know if she had a fever when she went to her doctor. Her doctor just said her lymph nodes were excessively large. She states that all events occurred after her first vaccine, but she also had them again after her second vaccine. That night she felt her neck was tender and the morning after, the lymph nodes were sore and it was the vaccine on a Thursday so that may have been on a Sunday morning. She woke up with them so enlarged and painful that she did not want to go to the ER. That is when she could barely open her mouth from the pain. She adds it was right sided. It really is a lot better, there might be just a small area where the lymph nodes are still a problem. She states she wonders if anyone else experienced this because of an autoimmune disease. Caller adds that her main doctor is not aware of this, but she has an appointment with her routine doctor. Lymph nodes enlarged: on her jaw nothing on the inside but on the outside, broke up, and she had drainage. She happened to have a routine cancer check appointment with her dermatologist. The dermatologist did a biopsy and they sent what was into pathology and it showed no cancer or no infection. She adds they have never seen anything like that, her skin was like a burn victim where it broke open. It must have been lymph nodes that were large and broke. She does not provide a start date but states she is still having trouble with this. It is not completely healed. There is a little bit of swelling, a small amount of swelling, in her lymph nodes. It was her jaw on the right side and in the neck. It mostly effected her jaw. Chills, lost weight: she had chills and obviously lost weight because she could not eat or do anything She had chills with no fevers or anything now, the only thing she is having is this area that broke through is taking a long time to heal and she still has to cover it and there is still an area that is draining and finally stopped but is still raw in some areas. She feels a lot better, she looks better. Caller adds that she lost four pounds, and verifies she corresponds this to the issues she was having. She had colon cancer so she is already low body weight, where her colon was removed some people will have malabsorption. Her body weight will always be low. It is not a good thing. first vaccine EN6202, that is the only thing the card says. It was given at hospital on 25Feb2021, and states it was the Pfizer. The second one caller interrupts sentence and states she was on antibiotics 10 days and started to improve and could eat. She had trouble eating and then the second shot the same thing happened. No additional information is on the card. Both were given in her left upper right below shoulder, in upper arm. Fever, chills, sore throat: By the time she got home, when she waited the half hour, she felt like she was starting to get a fever because her face was starting to fever. She also had chills and sore throat. Indication: because of the fact that she has autoimmune disease and was concerned, she did not want to get Covid. Her doctor and her had a discussion about it and he convinced her she needed to have it because if she were to get it, her system is so weak and to get covid she would be extremely sick. He thought she would be hospitalized. He said not to think about the Hepatitis vaccine and what happened to get the vaccine, and that if she felt side effects later not to worry because if anything happened she would be rushed to the ER like they would do with the Hepatitis vaccine. He said do not let this make her afraid to get the second vaccine. Fever, headache: caller adds that her headaches started the problem because of her autoimmune disease. Sometimes she has headache and fevers and swollen lymph glands and not to this extent that she had. Caller adds that they realized it was from the Covid vaccine. She probably had headaches at the same time of the fevers and that. She was sick enough that there were three days after the first round of Covid that she slept and stayed down. Her jaw was so swollen it was hard to hold her head up. She does not know when the headaches were and all that. caller adds she is on no other medications for her diseases after the Plaquneil, her side effects come on quicker and it effects problems. She adds she was on prednisone so she did not get her Prolia shots because she got prednisone instead. She would get Prolia shots every 6 months. Caller confirms that prednisone and Prolia were not taken within the weeks leading up to the vaccine. Caller adds that her endocrinologist took her off of Prolia because they stopped the shots when she saw them sometime in April and was taken off shots because her bone density was normal, and she has not been back on it. Caller states that she went to her dentist, they felt it was going to take longer for her lymph nodes to go down. The dentist said do not let it go long because her face was red and large and he was shocked. Treatment: 03Mar2021 first round of antibiotics, she believes was Ciprofloxacin. There were concerns she had too many antibiotics, it was 200 mg twice a day for 10 days. The second antibiotic was from a different doctor, on 19MAR2021. Then 20Mar2021 levofloxacin 500 mg once a day for seven days. Caller adds she also had headaches too in the beginning and with the second vaccine so she took Tylenol 500 mg. AE was not require trip to ER. Require Physician office. The last outcome of fever was recovered, and the last outcome of the other events was unknown. Information on the lot/batch number has been requested.

She probably had headaches at the same time of the fevers and took paracetamol (TYLENOL) 500 mg for headache. The patient added she also had headaches too in the beginning and with the second vaccine. She also had chills and sore throat. Two days after the second shot (19Mar2021), her swelling got worse with her lymph nodes and pain got worse after she got better. She was put on antibiotics. For the lymph nodes enlarged, the patient reported on the 31Mar2021 she was in pain extremely bad, she felt a large lump in jaw area. She should have taken pictures of her face, her whole face right side was swollen and enlarged. She went back to her doctor on 31Mar2021 and he said it was going to take longer because of her immune system for things to get better. Last time she saw a doctor, since the other stuff happened, she thought maybe it is a tooth causing this. On 08Apr2021, she went to the dentist and they had difficulty because she could not open her mouth. They were shocked they could not open her mouth, so they did a surround head X-ray which showed no abscess and that her teeth were fine. She had a round of antibiotics, so she was off her second round of antibiotics on 26Mar2021 and was not doing better. The dentist told her do not let it go much longer because her face was red and large and by the time she saw the dentist that lump was larger, and her face and jaw and that area was getting pretty bad. Treatment was reported included: the second antibiotic was from a different doctor, on 19Mar2021, then from 20Mar2021 levofloxacin 500 mg once a day for seven days. She went to the ENT and she said something else was wrong, something else was going on. 19Apr2021 the patient went to the ENT nurse practitioner who did a CAT scan and was not thinking COVID-19.

Just a little bit, it was white. She thought it was an abscess and used warm hot compresses. Sunday (02May2021), it got worse with the drainage and pain. A skin and tissue biopsy was done and squeezing out the rest of the puss or fluid. Pathology said the reports came back no cancer cells or bacterial or fungus, just a lot of inflammation. The patient still had trouble with draining so they gave her antibiotics, she thinks bacitracin. The fluid all came out and she stopped the fever and pain was better. Inflammation was going down. There was nothing draining inside her mouth, just below her jaw underneath. She had a small lump and tenderness that was starting to heal. One small patch finally stopped draining red and skin had not healed. The patient felt so much better than in February and March. Outcome of the events fever, drainage coming out of her jaw/ thought it was an abscess was resolved; outcome of the events headache, chills, sore throat, red face, difficulty eating was unknown; outcome of the other events was resolving.

It hurt when I got the shot and I knew something was wrong but I identified it as a problem probably after 48 hours. There was a lot of pain at the time of injection then the whole shoulder muscle area got really short, I still have a lump at the injection shot, I went to the doctor and they x-rayed it and sent me to physical therapy and I am still going to physical therapy for the shoulder. The x-ray showed that I did not have a fracture or anything and there was nothing, so they decided it was bursitis from the shot. They gave me some lidocaine and something to put on my arm but did not work.

I had the sho, the second, one, in the evening and I was fine. Next morning, about 14 hours later I woke up ( 5 AM ) and my hands were really swollen, with pain in my distal joints in particular, I could not even close my hands around a spoon to put sugar in my coffee. There was pain on palpation of my bones in my hands. There was pain in my knees and my ankles. Really weird, I have no arthritis at all. However, it was the very same reaction I had when I initially took Ceclor, an old antibiotic about 20 years ago. 4 /6 hours later it had all disappeared! 24 hours after the vaccine, when I had almost forgotten about the morning, I suddenly had fever (37.9) and moderate chills! It also started from nowhere as I was watching TV at the time. I took a Tylenol and went to bed. Next morning I was fine and felt wonderful. I am a physician myself and it was really surprising for me. The arm had no pain, nothing at all, but the chills were disturbing. I am fine and happy now. I have taken ALL the vaccines available and never had a reaction like this, including rabies, and each and every vaccine I had to take. I am absolutely fine and happy and thankful.

The patient meant by allergic reaction, she had a number of things, she experienced tiredness, injection site pain, joint muscle pain, she felt unwell, this all happened on the Saturday, the same day she got the vaccine on 13Feb2021. Then on Sunday 14Feb2021, all the symptoms she spoke about were still there and so she rested all day. On 15Feb2021, she looked at her elbows, clarifying the inside of elbow, her elbow creases, and on both elbow creases the skin was red, both sides same size, then probably an hour later it was on her chest, underneath her breast, down to her stomach, past the vagina, everything was red swollen down to her thigh, it was working it's way down to the knee, the color was like a beet red, tomato color, it was under the arms, started with elbow, was at her neck.

When she called the doctor, the doctor said get over to the Emergency Room right away. Her husband and her were both on the phone and were telling the doctor that she doesn't want to go to hospital, she asked if she can just come into the doctors office. The doctor said No. He told her that needs to get special lab work done, and he needs to send her information over to the ER. He said this could do possible damage to the kidneys. The doctor said lets not forget the last time she did a blood test, which was in Nov2020, at that time she came up positive with COVID antibodies. It could have been possible that she had COVID and was asymptomatic, or she had it. The doctor said that they need to do another COVID test or it could be she had a COVID cold or a cold with antibodies, her doctor doesn't know. The fact that she had that test that came back with COVID antibodies test but not have COVID in Nov2020 was something to consider. He was concerned may be there is more to this, or just a rash. The doctor said that he is not equipped say what it should be. The doctor said he will speak with them at the hospital. Tiredness subsided yesterday afternoon on 15Feb2021, it subsided before she went to the ER visit. Right now, it's kind of like a lasting effect because she is not feeling normal. The injection site pain was still there but not as bad. The joint muscle pain subsided this afternoon around 1 o clock. It first began a half hour after leaving the stadium and she was experiencing it while driving back home, the pain continued and got worse. When she got up on Sunday morning her whole body was in pain, she was not getting better on Sunday and that's when she sat on couch rest of the day. For red skin, with the temperature of the skin, she didn't feel it to see if it was hot or anything, it was more this feeling that its just not going away getting worse, it didn't feel hot, there was no texture on the skin either. She just noticed she was flushed red. She called the doctor first, and he said that he was sending information to the emergency room. Then she went to (name of place withheld) ER.

She took Benadryl, she has somewhat improved, she is still itchy but not to the point that she will scratch heavily. She does not have her COVID CDC Card at the moment, her husband has that information but he is on a conference call with a client and she cant disturb him. The patient was scheduled for a second dose on 06Mar2021. That's where she has a question, the doctor is saying that he is not sure about getting second shot. They took lab work at the hospital and said everything was fine except for white blood cell count, it was on the lower side in Feb2021. She has had no vaccines on the same day or in the 4 weeks prior. She hasn't had any vaccines. She did have to visit the emergency room.

This 70-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) on 01Feb2021 on Arm left at single dose (Lot # EL9262, Expiration: May2021) for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included Atrial fibrillation from Jan2020. Had 2nd dose appointment scheduled but canceled appointment. Concomitant medications included apixaban (ELIQUIS) from 07Feb2021 at 5mg twice a day by mouth (provided SN100089537925, LOT 1771228, EXP: May2023, NDC: 0003-0894-21) for Atrial fibrillation. History vaccine included a Tetanus shot 40 years ago (1981) for immunisation and reacted terrible to it. She reports having and experienced soreness, redness, and pain at injection site. She reports getting a mammogram sometime after receiving the vaccine. They saw a spot they are going to recheck and saw swollen lymph nodes on the left side/ Enlargement of lymph nodes, which is the same side she received her vaccine. She was told it was most likely due to the vaccine. Six days later she suddenly felt sick, near syncope, couldn't catch her breath. It got so bad she thought she was dying and called EMS. Leads confirmed afib, her blood pressure was really high and kept going up and down like a roller coaster. She was taken to the ER and began feeling sick to stomach in ambulance. IN the ER she received 1000 ml of fluids and additional metoprolol in addition to dose she took that evening at home. She was sent home to follow up with her Cardiologist the following Monday. He wasn't sure if it was due to vaccine and started her on twice daily eliquis and increased her toprolol immediate release to twice daily. The following Friday night she got a headache and felt her ears vibrating. Her home EKG was fine, but blood pressure was high again and stayed up for hours. Took additional toprolol. Came down after 5 hours. Breast, arm and clavicle starting hurting two weeks and one day after the injection. She is anxious about getting the second vaccine. Asked PCP if she needed an antigen test to see if she needed a second dose of the vaccine. She says she got her first dose 01Feb, then on Wednesday, 03Feb she went and got a mammogram which had already been planned. She says that they saw enlarged lymph nodes to her left breast, under arm, and clavicle which they said are due to vaccine, but they also said they saw something else so they wanted to do a repeat mammogram three months later. She says it took two weeks, but suddenly her left breast and under arm were killing her, caller did not clarify this statement. She says she talked to her doctor who said don't worry it might take a while to go down. She says that the other thing is she has known atrial fibrillation that was diagnosed a year ago, and most of the time it is quick and doesn't last long, sometimes she doesn't know she is having it. She says 6 days after the first dose she started to feel ill, she had been in bed reading so she got up to get some water and suddenly felt like something was wrong and like she was going to pass out, she couldn't breathe, so she called EMS. She says her atrial fibrillation is not unusual, but she has never had it to where she couldn't breath. She says that the rate they estimated was 350, and her only other documented that was high like that was 150. She says that they treated her and she went home, and when she saw her cardiologist they said they don't know if the vaccine had to do with this, and to report it. She says a week later, on Friday a week ago, she started feeling funny standing while she was working on the computer in the middle of the afternoon, she felt like her ears were vibrating, which was very unusual, and she didn't know what was wrong so she looked at her Cardia app, and her heart was in normal sinus, and she checked her blood pressure which for her was sky high, up to 190/100 which her blood pressure is usually very low. She provided a second blood pressure that call handler was unable to capture and caller did not clarify as she no longer had her log with her. She says for hours her blood pressure (BP) went up and down, which was a similar or same thing as what happened that night she went to the ER with her atrial fibrillation, her BP would go up and down like riding a wave. She says needless to say, she has two questions: she says she doesn't know if there have been reports of that vaccine making A-fib worse, she is scared to get her second dose which she was supposed to get Monday a week ago, but put off primarily before the second thing with BP, she thought she would wait because she could hardly move her left arm so she put it off until the next Wednesday, She says that her second dose is now scheduled for 03Mar, so 4 weeks between doses, and she is a little afraid to get it because she doesn't know if her response was over the top or caused the other things, going to the ER with A-fib was terrifying, and she doesn't want that to happen again. She says people say that she has got to get her second dose because she won't be protected, so she would also like to know if it is possible for her to get antigens early on. She says that she had a tetanus shot 40 years ago, and had a horrible reaction after it, then years later they did a titer for tetanus and they said she would likely never need a tetanus shot again since she had built up such a high level and would never need it again. She says is it possible that she had enough immunity that she wouldn't need the second dose, or would there be an antigen test that could tell her if she would need a second dose, if so what is that test? She says she is afraid the next dose will kill her. AE treatment included says that when she went to the ER it was about 12:30AM when she arrived, they did not admit her. She says on the way to the ER in the EMS truck they gave her Cardiozyme to get her blood pressure going down and gave her 1000 cc fluids, and Metoprolol, another dose. She says that the Cardiozyme was IV push in the ambulance, she doesn't have the information to provide for all of the heart stuff they gave her, NDC/LOT/EXP: Unknown for Metoprolol or Cardiozyme. She clarifies that she takes Metoprolol normally every day that they have had her on that is extended release and she takes it at night. She says she had taken that at 09:30PM, and by the time she got there to the ER after midnight a little, they after gave her another to see if it would bring her heart rate down. She says that they kept her there a couple of hours, until her heart rate was normal, though her BP was up a bit. She says that they told her they could admit her but she said she would rather go home if they thought it was safe, and she went home. She says that her sister came home and stayed with her, whose husband is a cardiothoracic surgeon. Metoprolol: Caller says that the Metoprolol she is taking is in a pharmacy bottle that says use by 08Feb2022, it does not have an official label, the NDC or LOT are not on there. She says that they gave her 60 to take of regular Metoprolol, not extended release, which is 25mg to take twice a day by mouth, so 60 tabs and she would need to get refills as it is a months worth. Metoprolol extended release NDC/LOT/EXP not provided when queried. She clarifies that the not extended release is called Toprol/Metoprolol Tartrate 25mg. Caller says that her swelling lymph node limited the use of her arm, she can't pick up anything or lift her self up while moving in the bed, she is miserable, it hurts to put pressure on her arm and she can hold her arm up and move it around she can do anything with not holding anything, she feels a tightness there, even when she breathes or coughs. She says her left arm was sore initially for 3-4 days after getting the shot but the soreness left. She says she was told on 03Feb that she had swollen lymph nodes, which was two days after the shot, but she couldn't feel them then, she couldn't tell, and had no pain. She says it was two weeks later that happened, it was so odd that it was two weeks before it was hurting then got progressively worse. Caller says that Tuesday a week ago she thought she must have done weights with her arms since her muscles were sore, but it was only on one side and she hadn't done any exercise since after she went to the ER she was being careful what she did, and she thought she strained her arm and realized what it was, it has gotten progressively worse over the last week. She says last night she started looking up remedies, she has been putting ice on it, and the clinic said use warm, and she rubbed castor oil on it last night in the shower then this morning she massaged her arm with castor oil and put a warm wash cloth over it. She says that castor oil has anti inflammatory properties. She says she has not noticed a difference yet, but she has only done it two times. She says it also said she can take Aleve or Ibuprofen, they told her at the ER, they also started her on Eliquis the night she was there, which she had never been on, they didn't consider her A-f fib bad enough. She says that is what has her concerned, she got the shot then 6 days later A-fib made her feel like she couldn't breathe. She says also her BP and heart rate going back up made her sick to her stomach that subsided when her BP was coming down but then it started going back up again, when she went to the ER that Saturday night on the 6th but by the time she got there it was the 7th. Outcome of the events was unknown.; Sender's Comments: The possibility that suspect drug may have contributed to the reported event cannot be excluded. The impact of this report on the benefit/risk profile of the Pfizer drug is evaluated as part of Pfizer procedures for safety evaluation, including the review and analysis of aggregate data for adverse events. Any safety concern identified as part of this review, as well as any appropriate action in response, will be promptly notified to Regulatory Authorities, Ethics Committees and Investigators, as appropriate.

I woke up the morning after receiving the second Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine, and the ball joint and toe of my left foot was swollen, red and painful. I ended up taking methylprednisolone (Medrol Dose Pac) for it. A few days after I completed that course of medication, I had another reaction where the left ankle did the same thing, got blood tests and the joint was aspirated; the doctor injected lidocaine and a corticosteroid into the joint, also the Medrol Pac meds again. Seems to be okay now. My doctor considers it a flare of inflammatory arthritis, auto-immune.

per patient: I was awakened at 0145 hours on 11 March with tingling in the RIGHT SIDE of my FACE and JAW. The Right Side of my TONGUE and LOWER JAW along the GUM LINE were EDEMATOUS and worsening as was my Right Cheek. I knew immediately what was occurring as I have a HISTORY of ANAPHYLACTIC Response to BEE STINGS and MUSHROOMS. I have EPI PENS and BENADRYL with me 24/7. I am also a Registered Nurse. I immediately took 50mg of BENADRYL Orally at 0150 hours, and continued to monitor the progression of my symptoms and my vital signs. By 0330 the tingling in my face and jaw abated. The Edema began to lessen at approximately 0610. I DID NOT have to use one of my EPI PENS. I DID NOT make an Emergency Visit to the ER, nor to my physician. (pt also noted she attempted to send in four (4 ) VAERS Reporting Forms to know avail.

Immediately upon injection I felt totally dizzy as though I was drunk, slight pain at base of tongue left side. The dizziness somewhat passed within 40 minutes but not totally, same with slight pain at base of tongue left side. Went to bed as normal but awoke to having great difficulty breathing as soft tissue around entire neck was swollen as were lymph glands around neck area, that was pressing against my airway making it seem like I was suffocating slowly, being strangled by all the swelling. Hospital injected me with mega dose cocktail of large amount of steroids, Benadryl. Symptoms subsided quite a bit at hospital only to keep continuing for nearly 2 weeks after. Because of this on Tues March 2, 2021 I had an appointment with my family doctor because the swelling was still quite intense. She put me on a 3-5 day dose of Prednisone. I still have some swelling going on in my neck area from it today 3/20/21. On item 21 I clicked Permanent damage as I'm unsure if this swelling will be permanent and continue to come and go at this time or totally subside eventually. It's unknown at this time.

This was 2nd dose. Starting before I sat down in the observation area: Pressure and pain at back of neck, dizziness, difficulty swallowing. This persisted until 3/17. I had a similar reaction to the first dose. 3/15: Rash on face and neck. 3/16 Rash spread to chest and upper arms. 3/17 face swollen; headache, scratchy throat. 3/18: Symptoms subside by end of day, although skin still a little blotchy. I did tell the person who gave me the injection about my reaction to the first dose and she looked for the rapid response team to watch me, but she didn't find them. I suggest a sign in the waiting area indicating which symptoms are of concern (hard to distinguish immune response from allergy and/or anxiety attack.

Swollen upper arm and tender for 2 days after the injection. The ringworm rash seemed to spread like wildfire on the third day and within a couple of days, both my legs were covered with the blotches. I had continued using the tolnaftate but on Saturday the 13th of March I went to get medical advise at the local ER and was told to take Allegra and Clotrimazole-Betamethazone cream. The rash got worse and I called Dr. and he told me to contniue to take the Allegra but stop the cream and start with Lotrimin because the Betamethazone in the cream counteracts the positive effects of the Clotrimazole.

She says on days of intravenous (IV) chemo when she was being highly treated in the past sometimes she would pass out, so she doesn't know if that was related to the COVID shot or not. No testing had been done on high risk patients, so she thought maybe this could be a good heads up for something someone else may experience. Her side effects were on and off for several hours, the shaking and spasms would subside and then start again. She says that they went away, and then she got up and passed out, and her foot was all messed up, she doesn't know what she did when she fell, but she had it checked and it was not broken, it was all bruised and swollen, but it was not broken.

A 70-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), via unspecified route of administration on 15Mar2021 (at the age of 70 years) at a single dose in the left arm for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included lung issues and allergic asthma. Family history included brothers and sisters who died of lung issues and third sibling sister died many years ago due to allergic asthma. The patient previously took flu vaccine for immunization and experienced severe pain throughout her whole body. On 15Mar2021, patient received the first dose of Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. Later on, that day when she got home after receiving the vaccine, underneath the arm where the injection site was, a big red circle was noted and it was swollen, beneath this area was a red circle where blood clotted or something, she would get hot and cold and take her clothes off because she was sweating but did not have fever, there was pain in her chest, stomach, back and head, wheezing, shortness of breath, fatigue, swelling of the face, pain in left elbow.

At the hospital her temperature was 98.9 F on 23Mar2021, but 97.1F - 97.7F is her normal temperature. She went to the Pulmonary doctor also, but was getting a second opinion because she knew it could be life threatening. The pulmonary doctor made light of it saying they were just creases, like creases in pants. Patient said crease was a far cry from partial lung collapse on both bases and the Pulmonary doctor also said that it is in the upper part of the lung also. This scared her and made her think nobody cared. She did not know if she should provide the information because the doctor did not seem to believe that that her symptoms were coming from receiving the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. She guessed she should provide the information because Pfizer does research. She wanted to know how long do the side effects last and if she should take the second dose. The outcome of the events underneath the arm where the injection site was, a big red circle was noted and it was swollen/under her nose and left elbow were red, pain in her chest, stomach, back and head, wheezing, shortness of breath, fatigue, swelling of the face, pain in left elbow, goes to bathroom and bowel was not emptying the way it should, rib cage is going on the side of body noticed this thumping, lips were red, throat was red, been sick and just laying around, eyes were red was not recovered; while unknown for the other events.

The patient states she had a stupid question. Had her first Covid-19 vaccine since she was a senior on 08Feb2021. She was a diabetic. She didn't feel a thing when the lady gave her the Covid-19 vaccine she was really good and the facility was really good. Started then having every day after the shot a little bit of symptoms but was just trying to prepare herself for her 01Mar2021 symptoms because she has a bad back. One of her symptoms, it seemed like every one of her joints, her bones hurt. She hurts all the time anyway because she has degenerative joint disease and had a lumbar fusion but has never been in so much pain in her life that lasted about 4 days and was really intense. The patient mentions that she had other health issues, and not sure if her insulin and other things may interfere. Doesn't know if she has arthritis or she may get it in the future. Had lumbar pain, which was really bad anyway, but this pain was sunk down in the joints of her fingers, neck, feet, legs, just about all joints and she is obese and has a lot of weight to carry. It was really intense. Lymph nodes below her ears were swollen. Does feel a little better, but she always just has the pain. Again, mentions she was trying to prepare for the second shot and from what she read the second shot was a huge shot. The first shot was like a primer and the second shot will be the one to help her really well. The patient enquired that would second shot make her side effects worse. Wants to be sure so she can buy groceries before because she was barely able to get out of bed because the pain was so severe. Normally uses Xulane patches (Lidocaine patch 5%) on her butt or take Tylenol. Puts those patches on her butt since it's big enough. If she can use things like that would that interact with the shot. The patient mentioned she lost a couple of inches due to history of scoliosis and has history of spasmodic dysphonia. Clarifies conditions before receiving Covid-19 vaccine. Again, mentions she always has the back, lumbar pains but they got worse than normal pains, it was elevated. It was worse 2 days after the vaccine and then hit a plateau and today she feels almost herself. Again, mentions the joint pains and she has Polycythemia vera secondary, which was a blood cell condition and has COPD. Mentions those conditions also before receiving the Covid-19 vaccine. No other vaccines received that day and none 4 weeks prior. States she only has had soreness in the arm with the flu shot she received back in Nov2020. Unable to provide NDC, Lot, or expiry for flu shot. One of her friends was a retired nurse and told her the line for the vaccine wasn't long that day and they were taking people age 70 an dover and she was finally cleared from the Pulmonologist and Endocrinologist. They didn't see any reason she shouldn't get it and left that decision up to her. The patient had an appointment next week for fasting blood work with the Endocrinologist. The patient was contacted to collect product details for Xulane patches and Tylenol after initial call. When providing product details for Xulane and Tylenol caller mentions print on Xulane is hard to see with her bifocals. The patient mentions has appointment next month for fasting bloodwork on 01Mar2021 and she has to see the endocrinologist next week on the 8th so she does not know if the units of her insulin will change. Then mentioned she was on Metformin HCL ER 500mg for 2 years and was having issues with that and they started her on samples of different kinds of things. Has been on Jardiance and Jardian. None of those samples worked. Was worse on the Jardiance and when on Glimepiride, which put her in the hospital, that should be outlawed. Unable to provide NDC, Lot, or expiry for samples, Metformin HCL ER, Glimepiride, Jardiance and Jardian. Caller provides spellings of product names. When providing insulin, Tresiba, details stated she used to give it in the thigh but it made her fat hurt. The Tresiba has been working the best. No further details provided. Also mentions she also has an emergency inhaler but does not provide any further details.

She said she started feeling better this past Saturday, on 01May2021, then on the following Sunday she was even "better", and Monday through today, Friday she has not experienced the reported symptoms. She said her primary care doctor (PCP) has offered to increase her beta-blocker if her symptoms would worsen, and that her palpitation could be due to anxiety. She explained she disagreed with her PCP. She mentioned she has not experienced these symptoms when feeling anxious in the past. She added she cannot rely on her PCP and is attempting to change PCP. She explained her PCP recommended her to get the second dose of the vaccine and said, it's better than nothing or [she] won't be immunized.

Sensation went from the injection site down to the elbow and it wasn't quite like a soreness; like sensation; then started to feel heavy around a little below injection site of left arm felt a little heavy maybe inch or so from where the needle was put in. She felt just kind of weird. She guesses a little bit later on is when left arm started to feel a little sore but wasn't anything bad like bad soreness; she could feel it but not like ouch. She recovered completely from these events, they didn't stay forever. By the time she was on the way home she felt soreness had gone away. She did have a swelling not at the injection site but from off the injection site to the back top part of the shoulder kind of a little numb; felt a little numb and swollen didn't last forever think it started 18Apr2021 and thinks event went away by the next day, 19Apr2021, recovered completely.

A 70-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number EN6198), via unspecified route of administration in right arm on 09Mar2021 10:00 (at the age of 70-year-old) as 2nd dose, single for COVID-19 immunization (reported as lessen the COVID-19 virus or prevent it). Vaccine was not administered at facility. The patient's medical history included skin cancer (extensive history of skin cancer) from unspecified date, skin cancer removed 5 months before the present report (Jan2021), osteoporosis from unspecified date, tick bite (she was bitten by a tick about 5 months before the present report (Jan2021)). The patient's concomitant medications included calcium carbonate/colecalciferol (CALCIUM + D3) 1500 mg/25 mg, from unspecified date and ongoing. Patient did not receive prior vaccinations (within 4 weeks) and she did not receive other vaccines on the same date with the Pfizer vaccine. No adverse events following prior vaccinations were reported. It was reported that patient was calling about the COVID-19 vaccine. The patient previously received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number EN6201), via unspecified route of administration on 16Feb2021 10:00 (at the age of 70-year-old) as 1st dose, single for COVID-19 immunization. Patient stated that she had a question. Ever since she took the COVID-19 vaccine she kept an ongoing rash. The odd thing was, the rash will turn up on any part of her body as a tiny red circle, like the size on a pin head. The rash was very intensely itchy. If she touched the rash, it opened and it bled. She did not know if this rash was coincidental after the COVID-19 vaccine so she was wanting to ask if this rash was in the range of common side effects. It was almost 2 months to the day since she had received her second COVID-19 vaccine. She reported her pajamas get bloody from her touching or scratching these spots. The spots were totally isolated. She got one on her eye lid last night and she knew not to touch it. She was never had anything like this before in her life. She had an extensive history of skin cancer. She got full body exams every 6 months and just had skin cancer removed 5 months before the present report. She never had anything like this rash until the COVID-19 vaccine. It was a mystery. She's recently moved from different areas and she's made every excuse as to why she had this rash. She was blamed the water and the fabric softener. She asked if the rash was a common side effect. She last saw her dermatologist in Feb2021 and her rash didn't begin until Mar2021. The itching was so intense and annoying. She had not seen her doctor or dermatologist since the rash appeared. She was calling Pfizer to make sure she had all the correct information before making an appointment with her dermatologist. She provided the following information in a historical context. She was providing this information because she was trying to rule out reasons she had this rash she was calling to report. She reported she was bitten by a tick about 5 months before the present report. This occurred prior to her receiving either COVID-19 vaccine. She had no circles at her tick bite. She did not think she had Lyme disease. She looked up the symptoms for Lyme disease. Even at the time the tick was removed, it was head stayed in her skin but she had no fever or exhaustion. She did not think her rash was residual from the tick bite. She did not feel afraid. She was not feeling any kind of discomfort. She got a little tickle like at her knee or somewhere on her body and the tickle turned into a red welt and started bleeding. It was very annoying. The rash could show up anywhere but not on the palms of her hands or on the bottoms of her feet. She was retired and she was living her new life. She was itchy all over and she tried not to touch the rash. She was hoping the rash would just resolve, it was very peculiar. She didn't feel real concerned because she had access to a good dermatologist. She was just trying to eliminate causes of the rash so she didn't waste her doctor's time. It seems like the doctor's only wanted to spend about 5 minutes with her anyway. She reported the rash started within a week after she received the second COVID-19 vaccine she believed. It started with the second vaccine, not the first vaccine. At her age she was trying to be orderly but she was still sometimes forgetful. Second COVID-19 vaccine given in the right arm on 09Mar2021, Lot number EN6198. She didn't even get a sore arm from the vaccine. Patient would like to know whether their side effects were related to the COVID vaccine. She said she had an ongoing symptom for about 2 months at the time of this report: A little traveling dot, rash, itchy, sometimes swelling. If touched it starts bleeding immediately. They were usually singular and about 6 of them which are active. Sometimes it appeared on her toe, and sometimes on her eyelids Unsure if it was directly related to any vaccine as she had a few other changes recently such as moving from one area to another and also a tick bite but they have eliminated that as a cause. Patient would like to know whether the data shows a timeframe for how long these (non-severe allergic reactions) last. No relevant tests were performed. The outcome of the events was not resolved.

Patient states that over the past week she has been extremely weak, with nausea, diarrhea, but denies vomiting. She also reports that her appetite has decreased and noted that the symptoms has worsened and as a result she presented to the ED for further evaluation.Patient denies abdominal pain, lightheadedness, or chest pain. Upon further evaluation and tests in the ED, she was noted to have severe sepsis as indicated by vital signs and chest x-ray imaging indicating groundglass pneumonia typical of COVID-19 infection. She also had COVID-19 swab which returned positive result. Additionally, patient was noted to be hypoxia with SPO2 of 88% requiring oxygen supplementation. Hospital Course patient was admitted to a Hospital due to shortness of breath, with fatigue and weakness, and was found to have severe sepsis with endorgan damage of acute hypoxic respiratory failure due to COVID-19 pneumonia on admission. Imaging study showed no evidence of PE, but did show evidence of bilateral pulmonary infiltrates. Pulmonary was consulted, she was started on remdesivir with Decadron. She had an increase in oxygen requirement to the maximum of 10 L via specialty nasal cannula during the admission. With the treatment of remdesivir and Decadron she had improvement in her hypoxia, and was ultimately weaned to room air by the time of discharge. She underwent a desaturation study on the day of discharge and determined that she did not need any supplemental oxygen. She completed her entire steroid and remdesivir course during the admission. She had no evidence of superimposed bacterial pneumonia. Her hospitalization was complicated by atrial fibrillation/flutter with RVR, that improved with metoprolol administration. This was thought to be precipitated by her severe hypoxia with acute illness. She was kept on metoprolol 25 mg twice daily on discharge, and will need to follow-up with her cardiologist at Medical Center to determine if she can come off of this again. She will continue to take her Xarelto as previously prescribed. She was medically stable for discharge on 4/5 in stable condition, and will need to follow-up with PCP within 7 days, with cardiology within 2 weeks at the hospital, and pulmonary within 2 weeks as well.

By evening I felt sick. The next three days (Tues, Wed and Thurs), I had a major fever of 101F and chills. By Wednesday, I developed diarrhea and fever blisters all over my mouth and face. My eyes were very stingy. I had a headache. I was very weak. I called the doctor, and I was given a very high-dose of Valtrex for cold sores. The Valtrex made me super dizzy. I took the Valtrex for a week. I am dismayed by the severity of my reaction to my second Pfizer vaccine. I have not been that sick in years and years. I am concerned the dose was too high for me. I have lots of sensitivities and allergies. Have you thought about dose management or does everyone have to get the same dose? I am not going to get a booster if my dose cannot be moderated. I can't express in words how I was sick.

Seventeen days after the second injection, I noticed a very large lump in my armpit and a smaller one in my neck. I visited my primary M.D. and she thought it might be due to the vaccine, but just to be on the safe side, she ordered ultrasounds of both areas. Results revealed prominent, enlarged lymph node in armpit >2 cm. Radiologist agreed with doctor that it might be due to vaccine and recommended ultrasounds be repeated in 3 months. I am terrified that this vaccine may have given me LYMPHOMA because I still have these lumps.

We went to cabin in and my arms swelled and itched - a week after getting the vaccine. It was beyond big and itched. It was hard to sleep. I called the doctor. He told me to take antihistamine and topical Benadryl on it. Had the stroke on May 2nd and waited four hours and I went to Care ER part of. I was admitted and stayed two days at that point. Gave me IVs and Aspirin treatment and Lipitor. They sent me home to take Lipitor and baby aspirin. I have seen specialists after that - cardiologists and neurologists etc. They confirmed a TIA - a mild stroke. I had to be put on a heart monitor for 10 days. I have not gotten the results back from that yet. Again, because of the stroke I have had extreme fatigue ever since the shot and from the stroke. It's really bad. I have to go to the speech therapist - for Aphasia symptoms. My brain isn't working right. I almost passed out four days after I was released. I had a synchrony event on May 7th. Went to the hospital again for one day.

It wasn't at the injection site, but it was in the same arm. She hasn't seen that listed any place. Since Sunday night it has gotten less swollen, but she assumed it was a reaction to the vaccine. She says it has gotten better. She can't think of anything else that was really different that would cause it. She hasn't seen that listed anyplace. All she has seen listed is swelling at the site of injection. The patient reported that right above the elbow crease on the right side of the left arm was quite swollen. It was swollen and distorted.

hives; face swelling; itching; rash; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable nurse (patient). A 71-year-old female patient received 1st dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot# EH9899), intramuscular in left arm on 22Dec2020 11:08 at single dose for COVID-19 vaccination. Medical history included ongoing blood pressure high, ongoing cholesterol, ongoing depression. Concomitant medication included atenolol (tablet, strength 50 mg) from an unknown date and ongoing for blood pressure high, simvastatin (tablet, strength 20 mg) from an unknown date and ongoing for cholesterol, paroxetine hydrochloride (PAXIL, tablet, strength 40 mg) from an unknown date and ongoing for depression. The patient experienced hives, face swelling, itching and rash on 27Dec2020. No additional vaccines administered on same date of the Pfizer suspect. Prior vaccination within 4 weeks was none. She got the first Covid 19 dose on 22Dec2020 and was fine, then on 27Dec2020 she had hives, itching, and face swelling for several days. Caller stated her lungs were clear and she was okay other than the extreme itching. The face swelling was what worried her. The hives and itching went away within about 36 hours. The face swelling kind of got worse for a couple of days before it went away. Caller verifies she recovered from the hives/rash/itching within 36 hours. She got a steroid shot and things like that and it went away pretty quickly. The face swelling was completely gone but did last for a good 5 days. She didn't know if this reaction was related to the vaccine. She wanted to call and let Pfizer know and see if there was any reports of anything else like that or similar to that type of reaction. She was not sure if that really matters or not except she was not sure about taking the booster. She was kind of leaning towards taking the second vaccine. She didn't have any breathing issues. She asked as far as the second dose after those side affects, was it recommended? Her doctor said she could get the second one and prescribed her an Epi pen and would give a dose of Benadryl at the time of the second vaccine. She may take some Benadryl before getting the second vaccine and have her EpiPen with her just in case. She hadn't seen her doctor about this experience with the COVID-19 vaccine. She only went to an urgent care. The caller stated she went to urgent care twice. She received a steroid shot but doesn't have any name, NDC/UPC, Lot number or expiration date for any of the medication she received. She probably threw that paperwork out. She knew she wasn't given anything the second time she went to the urgent care. The second time she went back was because the face swelling was getting worse. She was prescribed an EpiPen and was told to take Zyrtec which did help. Everything had gone away. She would consider these events to be medically significant because of the face swelling, it kind of scared her. She made the comment she was taking high blood pressure medicine and cholesterol medicine, but other than that she was very healthy. She was not really an allergic person. She had not had any testing done since she received the vaccine. She did have bloodwork done prior but not since the vaccine. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included blood work prior vaccine with unknown result. The outcome of hives, rash and itching was recovered on an unspecified date of Dec2020 (within about 36 hours); face swelling was recovered on 01Jan2021.; Sender's Comments: Based on the time gap between the vaccine and the events there is not a reasonable possibility that the reported events were related to the suspect product, events are most likely due to patient underlying contributory factors 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.

Pt noted after approx 15 minutes a tingling/burning sensation of tongue At 4:45 pm. No associated SOB, facial swelling. She does have prior anaphylaxis reaction to pineapples for which she carries and epi Pen but has never needed to use. Cardiac exam RRR Lungs CTA bilat HEENT, no visible erythema of face or tongue and no noteable facial swelling She was agreeable to 25 mg dose of diphenhydramine and another 15 minute observation. During this time, she began to feel anxious and a mild headache. Vitals at that time were notable for bp 178/81, HR 101 and o2 sat 98%. Still no SOB, facial swelling or other new complaint. She felt improvement in anxiety within 5 minutes, and repeat vitals in 10 min with BP 152/83, HR 89 and O2 sats 96% She still continued with mild sensation change of tongue, but no facial swelling. She does have benedryl at home but I also sent her home with additional 25 mg dose in case she noted recurrent symptoms on the way home . She understands to seek emergency care with any worsening symptoms, or new SOB or facial swelling. She can also use her EPI pen if needed. She felt comfortable returning home- husband picked her up. I will call her to check in this evening and in the morning and will provide updated recommendations regarding second dose of vaccination. I spoke with patient at 8:09 pm - she was at home- feeling much better, however, she did take the second diphenhydramine on the way home, as she began to feel she was having some swelling between her eyes. No SOB Or trouble swallowing. This improved with the second benedryl and has not recurred. She will take an additional 50 mg benedryl before bed, and then she awakes before 6 am- if she has any residual symptoms she will take another dose. Again, she understands to seek emergency care with any worsening symptoms, or new SOB or facial swelling. She can also use her EPI pen if needed. She felt comfortable with this plan. We also reviewed current CDC guidelines and she understands at this time we would not recommend she receive the second Vaccination. She will continue to follow CDC in the event that this recommendation changes. I will submit a VAERS report after following up with her in the morning. ADDENDUM 2/3/21: I spoke with patient again on 2/3/21 at 07:45 am. She is feeling almost completely back to baseline this morning, but planning to take 25 mg diphenhydramine this morning as well. She does note mild headache, which is not abnormal for her. No residual tongue sensitivity or facial swelling. She noted that when she got home last night, she felt very sleepy and sedated from the diphenhydramine and went to bed, and did not take an additional dose of diphenhydramine last night. No SOB, trouble swallowing or any new complaint. No urticaria or itching. We reviewed current CDC recommendations to decline second vaccination given her moderate severe allergic symptoms within first 4 hours of first vaccination. She will follow up with PCP or kidney specialist if she has any continued concern with ongoing symptoms or new issues. She was very appreciative of the followup and care provided.

Swollen lymph nodes; Lymph nodes are really itchy/The itching is worse/worsened; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer via medical information team. A 71-year-old female patient received the first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number: EL3246), intramuscularly on the left arm on 09Jan2021 14:30 at a single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included ongoing diabetes: diagnosed before 2000, the condition was controlled; ongoing blood pressure high: diagnosed about the same time as the diabetes (before 2000), the condition was controlled; breast cancer twice: first time she had breast cancer was in 2008, the second time was in 2017; and had surgery and lymph nodes were removed: four lymph nodes were removed on the side where the shot was done (left). There patient had no concomitant medications. On 19Jan2021, the patient experienced swollen lymph nodes, lymph nodes were really itchy and the itching is worse/worsened in Jan2021. The patient received the COVID vaccine 10 days ago (also reported as almost 2 weeks ago) and experienced swollen lymph nodes. The vaccine was given to her in the same arm where she had her lymph nodes removed. She added that within the last 2 days, her lymph nodes on one side were swelling and really itchy. She added that "it's itchy to the point she would like to rip her arm off". The patient was scheduled to have her second dose on the 30th. It was explained to her that she shouldn't have a problem with getting the second dose, but the vaccine was injected into her left arm and that was the side where her lymph nodes were removed and now it was itchy. The swelling and itching started first thing in the morning on the 19Jan2021, she woke up with it. The itching was worse, or she doesn't know actually. She doesn't know if it's worse or its just annoying because it has now been 2 days of it. The itching and swelling hasn't gotten any better. Initially she was thinking it was a bug bite. She was thinking it would be better today, but its not. She wanted to make sure it had nothing to do with her breast cancer. The consumer wanted to know how long it took for the swollen lymph nodes to go down and should she take the second dose of the vaccine. She also wanted to know if she should take BENADRYL or apply any ointment on the swollen lymph nodes. The adverse event did not require a visit to the emergency room or the physician office. No relevant tests were done. The patient has not recovered from the events.

Anaphylactic reaction; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). This 71-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Lot number EK9231), via an unknown route, on 19Jan2021 at single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. No relevant medical history and concomitant medications were provided. On 22Jan2021, the patient developed an anaphylactic reaction. She went to the doctor and he was reluctant to give her steroids which was the normal way of treating the anaphylactic reactions because he said that the steroid would interfere with the effect of the vaccine. So, he gave her diphenhydramine hydrochloride (BENADRYL). She had to go back to the emergency room later that day and they used epinephrine (EPIPEN) and she had to have an intravenous (IV) and other than that some medications, it had prednisolone in it. Then she had to go back yesterday and she had another IV and they sent her home with an EPIPEN. The event was assessed serious as medically significant. The patient had recovered from the event in Jan2021.

A 71-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 MRNA VACCINE, lot number EL8982), via an unspecified route of administration on 13Jan2021 (at the age of 71-years-old) as a single dose for COVID-19 vaccination and started to receive methotrexate (ACCORD HEALTHCARE, lot number unknown, expiration date 12Nov2021) on an unspecified date (reported as seven years ago) at a dose of 17.5 mg weekly (seven tablets once a week) for Rheumatoid Arthritis. Medical history included rheumatoid arthritis from an unspecified date. Historical vaccinations included "every vaccine known. I've had all my vaccines, flu whatever" (as reported) on unspecified dates. It was unknown if the patient had received any other vaccinationa in the fourteen days prior to this inoculation. Concomitant medications included folic acid (MANUFACTURER UNKNOWN). On 18Jan2021 (reported as about five days after the shot), the patient had just a little soreness and she thought that was one of the side effects that you have that with the vaccine. So, she didn't worry so much about it. But then it got progressively worse. And by the time just before she was supposed to get the second shot, it was really bad. But she thought that she was still going to get that second shot which was planned for "02Feb2021 or 03Feb2021" (also reported as on 02Feb2021) because she didn't want to not get it. She was struggling with the pain before she got the second one. She mentioned that by the time she got her second dose, she was in an RA flare. She continued by saying that she had her blood work done, "on Tuesday morning" because she was due for her RA exam in Mar and it was due, and her markers for ESR, and "CR whatever" were more than double what they should be. Her Rheumatololgist saw her and when she went to the doctor her shoulders, her ankles, her elbows and everything were all hot with flare ups. Treatment included Prednisone 10mg every day which was given, according to the patient, in order to "calm down my joints and everything." The action taken with methotrexate was not reported. The clinical outcomes Rheumatoid Arthritis flare up, pain, condition aggravated, ESR increased and CRP increased were reported as unknown.; 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 Rheumatoid arthritis flare up, ESR increased, and CRP increased 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.

48 hours after shot in left arm I started to have a earache on left side, traveled down the left side of face, into jaw area and down left side of my throat like tonsils and into neck area. Into 72 hours after shot my face, neck and throat area started swelling. At that time I went to ER for assistance due to the swelling and pain. The ER after taking review thought it a infected saliva gland and treated me for that. As told by ER if no large progress contact my local Dr. and see ENT. On Tues. (one week from Covid injection) I was in touch with my local Dr. they had me come to their office for some care and scheduled me with a ENT. They have been able to get the profuse swelling down out of the left side of my face, neck and throat. I'm scheduled for a CT scan on March 5, 2021 to see where the original problem started. I'm contacting you for two reason's 1. I have a March 10th. appointment scheduled I need to cancel and am having issues doing this. Even in light of all this I want to reschedule for late April for my second shot and am not able to do that as well. 2. Can you assist with any information if this has happened to other folks and if I should be clear to take my second dose. This has been quite a nightmare and hard to bring under control. I believe in the vaccine and this maybe just a quirk in how it happened but any information you can give me would be welcome. I have looked on the website and it does say that there have been people who have also had symptoms like this from the shots where the side they get the shot on reacts. Thanking you in advance for your time and assistance.

After waiting 30 minutes after my injection, I left the hospital and was driving home when I began to feel my face tingling and swelling. This was close to 45 minutes after the injection. I was not sure what I was feeling, but had a similar reaction to the first Shingles shot so I was monitoring what I felt. I went to a walk in clinic about 2 hours after this feeling began. The swelling was on the right side of my face from a midline of my top lip to my right cheek. The doctor I saw told me to take Benadryl and gave me scripts for a Medrol Dosepak and epi pens. I took the Benadryl and got through the evening. I took Benadryl on Saturday and stopped it on Sunday. My face was still puffy, but no worse. Sunday night, my face felt worse and I took the Benadryl again. Monday morning, my face was slightly more swollen. I decided to start the Medrol Dosepak. My face was not feeling good and my throat felt like I was swallowing a boulder when I ate making me think that my throat might be closing up a bit. I decided to use the epi pen, gave myself the shot, got the shakes from the shot, and went to the emergency room as instructed on the pen. My blood pressure was very high arriving at the hospital which was from the epi pen. I was watched at the hospital, the epi pen had done it's work, and I went home 4 1/2 hours later. I have had continued puffiness in my face. I have been given Famotidine to add to the Benadryl as I had with the shingles vaccine reaction. This Wednesday after getting the shot on the previous Friday.

The patient initially presented (3/3/21) with headache, fevers, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, myalgias, malaise. Patient related she was in her normal state of health and only started to feel poorly after she received her second COVID-19 vaccination three days earlier. She interestingly related that after her first Pfizer COVID-19 vaccination she had significant burning in her stomach that she noted but no other major symptoms and notably did not experience this severe burning in her stomach after the second dose. She denied any chest pain, current dyspnea, productive cough, sore throat, urinary symptoms, sick contacts. She has no history of C. difficile, no recent antibiotics, no recent spoiled foods, no recent travel, no history of radiation. She does have a history of GERD and has had gastritis with mild gastrointestinal bleeding in the past and undergone EGD negative for H. pylori infection. She also has undergone colonoscopies with polyps that have been removed and reported as tubular adenomas. As her hospitalization progressed, she was diagnosed with Severe Sepsis due to E. Coli bacteremia in setting of liver abscess, Cholelithiasis without acute cholecystitis, Atrial Fibrillation with rapid ventricular response, Transaminitis (which resolved). Patient was appropriately treated for these conditions. Also, her known uncontrolled diabetes was treated. Per an Infection Disease note on 3/9/21: The patient has had hx of biliary colic (self diagnosis) now with discovery of non-obstructive cholelithiasis on RUQ US it is plausible that the abscess originated from self limiting cholecystitis/cholangitis which would be consistent with recent abdominal pain exacerbated with oral intake. Difficult to state definitively any relation to COVID-19 vaccination, though may have resulted from associated dehydration.

Medical history included low magnesium, low vitamin D, allergy to Band-Aids, skin adhesives, and allergy to polyurethane spray tan (She's had a reaction to polyurethane on wood floors at her dad's house. Her throat started tightening and it was hard to breathe. She couldn't be in the house until they were finished with the floors. She had to stay in a hotel. She's also had a reaction to spray tan. After the spray tan was finished she had the tightness in her throat. She went to the emergency department and was given Benadryl and her reaction stopped after a short amount of time), She had a mole removed from her leg a couple years. Concomitant medications included acetylsalicylic acid (ASPIRIN) taken for an unspecified indication, start and stop date were not reported; magnesium taken for low magnesium from an unspecified start date and ongoing; colecalciferol (VITAMIN D) taken for vitamin D decreased, start and stop date were not reported. The patient had allergy to Polysporin (Johnson and Johnson NDC30036385, Lot#103812, Expiry Jan2020), Polysporin caused a bad skin reaction, it was awful. She can only use plain bacitracin. Some make ups she can't use. She's had no problems with creams. Foods are ok. She had a mole removed from her leg a couple years ago and she put the polysporin on the wound and that's when she had that reaction. It was bad around the incision, that wound took a long time to heal because of that sensitivity. She also can't take zinc oxide because it caused an allergic skin reaction, she also had allergy to Epinephrine, She had a reaction happen to her at the dentist. She was given epinephrine and her heart started pounding and racing. The dentist put her in a shock position. The dentist told her it would pass but it was scary. The patient previously also received Antihistamine for allergy. The patient experienced heart started pounding and racing (medically significant) on 23Mar2021, high blood pressure 220/118 (medically significant) on 23Mar2021, throat felt funny (medically significant) on 23Mar2021, allergic reaction/anaphylactic reaction (medically significant) on 23Mar2021. Events were considered as related to Covid 19 Vaccine by reporter. Event required a visit to Emergency Room. The clinical course as following: She received her first Covid 19 vaccine yesterday, on 23Mar2021. After she received the Covid 19 vaccine she walked down the hall to wait in the other room. When she sat down in the other room her heart started pounding and racing. The nurse took her pulse and took her blood pressure. The nurse asked her if she had high blood pressure and she does not have high blood pressure, she has low blood pressure. And the nurse told her that her pulse was fast. A second nurse came in to recheck her blood pressure and she got a high reading as well. The nurses called the nurse practitioner in also. The nurse practitioner said the caller should go to the emergency department. Her throat also felt funny but not bad. She has had reactions in the past when her throat got tight. In the emergency department she received 2 Benadryl, 50mg of Benadryl. They checked her out in the emergency department. The doctor checked her out. She was hooked up to monitor and she stayed for 4-5 hours in the emergency department in case there was a rebound effect. She was discharged from the emergency department. She reports her pulse was 118 beats per minute. She felt like it was higher than that. Her blood pressure was 220/118 the first time. She takes her blood pressure at home and it runs 118-120 over 68-72. The sensation after the Covid 19 vaccine was her heart started pounding. Her heart was moving she could see it pounding. She asked the emergency room doctor what does she do about the second Covid 19 vaccine. She is scheduled for the second Covid 19 vaccine on 15Apr2021. The doctor told her he wasn't sure about that. The doctor advised her to call the CDC and let them know what's going on. She did not speak to anyone at the CDC, she left her contact information for a call back. She found the number for Pfizer and called it. The symptoms lasted about 1-2 hours before the pulse came down to the 90's (beats per minute). The blood pressure came down quicker then the pulse did. Probably within the hour her blood pressure was down to 158 over something. In the emergency department she was instructed to take Benadryl 25mg every 6 hours for 24-48 hours. She's not back to her perky self, but her heart rate and blood pressure is normal. She took 25mg of Benadryl last night, 23Mar2021 then 25mg of Benadryl this morning, 24Mar2021. She's not taking it right at every 6 hours. And she'll take the Benadryl for only 24 hours. She reports it's unnerving for this to happen to her. It helped her that her blood pressure was coming down and they didn't have to give her any other medication besides the Benadryl. She felt like she was in a safe place in the emergency department. She kept drinking water the whole time, she likes to drink a lot of water and she also did some deep breathing exercises. She gets anxious when things like this happen to her. She felt this was medically significant because she didn't know what caused it. Is something in the vaccine that might have caused this to happen. When probing for relevant tests, she reports she had no tests done in the emergency department. They only maintained her on a heart rate monitor and took her blood pressure. She had no IV or anything like that. All the signs and symptoms of the anaphylactic reaction was described as high blood pressure, heart was racing, throat felt funny. Time of onset was minutes after receiving the vaccine, symptoms lasted about 1-2 hours. Patient require medical intervention included Antihistamine, Benadryl 50mg. Patient seen in the Emergency Department, she was monitored in the emergency department for about 4-5 hours on a heart rate monitor and had her blood pressure taken. The patient was not hospitalized. Organ involvement Cardiovascular: Hypertension 220/118, Tachycardia 118 beats per minute. The event was not required the initiation of new medication or other treatment or procedure. Patient's outcome following the potential anaphylactic reaction was Recovering. No laboratory tests or diagnostic studies performed. The patient did not receive any recent vaccines for any other conditions prior to the event being reported. The patient did not receive any recent vaccines for SARS-CoV2 other than Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine prior to the event being reported. The patient hasn't received any other vaccines around the time of Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine vaccination. The outcome of the events was recovering.; Sender's Comments: The reported anaphylactic reaction described as high blood pressure, palpitation and oropharyngeal discomfort was likely causally related to the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) due to temporal relationship and clinical course of the events.

Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine 15 days after 2nd dose of vaccine and having had no side effects beyond a sore arm, I suddenly had chills, fever, fatigue, and body aches and pains. Classic COVID symptoms, and I had to go out in public 2 days before, so got a COVID test the next day (3/13). Results were negative, so decided it must have been a very delayed reaction to the vaccine. Fever went away after a couple of days. On day 20 (3/17) another cold sore showed up (see my 1st vaccine report) but there have been none since. Now, 7 1/2 weeks after the 2nd vaccine, numerous pains come and go, most in places where I had old injuries that haven?t hurt for decades. Examples: broken collar bone from 1951, stress fracture in foot from 1971, knee injury from 1978, neuroma after surgery in 1985, hip injury around 1990. Also some new pains: stabbing pain in ankle bones and shin, very sore ribs on the left side (front and sometimes back), fingers (bone, not the joints). These come on suddenly, usually last minutes or a few hours, then go away, sometimes for days, then repeat. Also still somewhat fatigued, and chills have recurred regularly. I have not seen news reports of other delayed reactions like this.

Left arm not functional during the latter hours due to pain on moving. It was subsiding by the next morning but followed by similar, though less intense Sx in every joint that has been injured at any time during the last 20 years, plus headaches. That continues now.

The architecture of the kidney is well-preserved. There is interstitial fibrosis with proportional atrophy involving 10% of the biopsy tissue. There is a focal interstitial infiltrate consisting of lymphocytes involving <5% of the interstitium. The tubules show diffuse acute tubular injury. Calcium oxalate crystals are present in seven tubular profiles. The glomeruli show expansion of Bowman's capsule. The mesangium shows normal cellularity. The vessels show no abnormalities. IMMUNOFLUORESCENCE MICROSCOPY: Frozen sections are stained for IgA, IgG, IgM, C3, C1q, kappa, lambda, and fibrinogen. All immunofluorescence stains are negative. ELECTRON MICROSCOPY: Specimens are prepared for electron microscopy and semi-thin sections stained with toluidine blue are reviewed prior to thin sectioning for ultrastructural examination. Electron microscopy demonstrates patent capillary loops. The glomerular architecture demonstrates segmental corrugation of basement membranes with increase in lamina rara interna. No subepithelial deposits and no intramembranous deposits are identified. The tubules show dilated mitochondria and injury. There is segmental effacement of foot processes. There are no subendothelial deposits. Mesangial electron dense deposits are not identified. Patient received three dialysis treatments and Creatinine began to improved down to 1.46 within 8 days.

Blood was coming through; Slight bee stings all over and thigh; Scabs on me; my eyelids have been a little itchy too; that was the only way that I am able to get some sleep; was miserable; consumer was in pain; hives; the same day I started to itch, it was mild across my breast and my stomach but my thighs and my bottom legs were turning red, swelling; but my thighs and my bottom legs were turning red/Thighs/Legs turned red; but my thighs and my bottom legs were turning red, swelling; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 71-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) at the age of 71-year-old, via an unspecified route of administration on 10Apr2021 13:30 (Lot Number: EN6207) as single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. The patient's medical history was not reported. Concomitant medications included apixaban (ELIQUIS), tamsulosin, and iron. The patient got her first injection on Saturday, 10Apr2021 at 1:30 pm in the afternoon around 7 o'clock the same day she started to itch, it was mild across her breast and stomach but her thighs and bottom legs were turning red, swelling, hives there too, and she rubbed alcohol (treatment) on this to stop the itch, that seems to helped a little bit, but the swelling was not that bad today but the redness was still there. She has scabs on her, blood was coming through, and slight bee stings all over and thigh on an unspecified date, she used hydrocortisone cream (treatment), she was lucky she have some of that here because she keep that when going or here but she rubbed that on last night and that was the only way that she was able to get some sleep. The patient doesn't think that she was going to get the second shot, she doesn't want to experience that again. It feels like that today it was not that bad itching today but at 71 that was miserable yesterday so probably she would not get the second shot. She hopes that the first one can protect her to a point, but she cannot subject herself to that again, that would be senseless for her to experience that again and get a second shot. The patient also stated that her eyelids have been a little itchy too so hopefully you all understand it was 71 years old was suffering from that kind of misery second time. The patient was unable to probe the more question, patient was in pain and not willing to proceed. The outcome of the events was unknown.

Medical history included shortness of breath, asthma. Concomitant medications included albuterol (SALBUTAMOL) and budesonide/formoterol fumarate (inhalation aerosol). Patient previously received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) on 25Feb2021 at the age of 71 years for covid-19 immunisation and she did fine. Patient stated that lot number for shot 2 looked like EDOL71. It could be ENOL71. The lady didn't write it very well. It could be EN or ED. She was calling to report she had a terrible side effect and she want to document it in the data. She couldn't give that to computer right now, she didn't feel well, she had the Pfizer shot 1 and Pfizer shot 2. She had anaphylaxis at 30 minutes and almost she had crashed her car just after the highway. First shot was February 25, she did fine, the second shot was April 22nd and she had a horrible reaction at 30 min. Patient stated that the problem is they didn't asked her if she was short of breath or if she had any pulmonary complication and so on the second shot she didn't say anything and she forgot to say she has asthma and no one asked her. she forgot to say and so they had her sit in 15min observation and she was fine and she had gone out after she got her vaccination record card sign, she got in her car and 15min. Later while she was driving she went into anaphylaxis. She had to pull over, thank god she didn't hit anybody, she pulled over and parked and she had her inhaler with her so she used the inhaler and she got in the back seat for half an hour to make sure that she drove home, she did not call 911. Patient further stated that she wanted to put it in documentation, if someone is taking something for asthma that probably should not have the second shot one medication is not good enough, the second dose and she also woke up in the evening drenched with sweat and chills, completely sweat and that happened about 8 to 10 hours after the shot on 22Apr2021. After the shot at 12:15 pm and she had the sweat about 11 O'clock at night when she had to lay down and she was shaking so badly she thought she was going to call 911, she was that sick. That's scary, patient stated "I must, I did have crashed in 3 or 4 people during that." So, it was very dangerous to someone who has asthma. That was probably something in the medication that she was allergic to. Outcome of the events was unknown.; Sender's Comments: Based on the very close temporal association, there was a reasonable possibility that the vaccination with BNT162B2 played a contributory role in triggering the onset of the anaphylaxis.

No vaccines administered on same date with the Pfizer vaccine. Medical history reported as "none". Patient stated she was pretty healthy. Concomitant medications included ascorbic acid (VITAMIN C), vitamin d nos (VITAMIN D), and "zinc". Patient stated she had been taking vitamins such as Vitamin C, Vitamin D, and Zinc even before COVID and continued taking it, but it didn't improve anything because her symptoms were getting worse. Vitamin C (Lot #: 11627, Exp: Jun2022, UPC #:729440860011). It's a combination of a tablet and a powder also. The directions say to take four per day, but she can't say if she takes four or two. She uses the Vitamin C powder- it comes in packets (like Kool-Aid), but she can't remember what it's call. She states she hasn't been super consistent with which bottle she took, but she tried to get it down every day. Sometimes, she puts the powder in her shake every morning. Amount per serving was 1551mg. It was recommended four per day, but she never took four because there are only so many she could swallow. She has to live besides taking pills, and she has plenty of pills to swallow. Vitamin D (Lot #: 192656, Exp: Jul2021, UPC: 818960013516). It's in liquid form, it's called "Liquid D"; the brand is Apex Energetix. The serving size was one drop sublingual, with a total in the bottle of 550 drops. The Vitamin D was 50mcg per serving. Caller states it's really good stuff, she has taken it from a doctor's prescription, that's how come she started taking liquid drops. Zinc (each serving was probably 50mg). No other vaccinations within four weeks prior to the first administration date of the suspect vaccine. Patient reported pressure and headache behind her eyes since the 1st dose of the Pfizer covid vaccine. The patient also added that she had head pressure, a headache across the right side of her head, increased/rapid heart beat, high blood pressure (reported as ongoing and worsening) that woke her up, heart was pounding so hard enough to wake her up, fogginess, dizziness, difficulty thinking, pain in the neck within the 1st 5 minutes of receiving the dose. Since the first part of May it's been constant every night. Patient had both doses of her vaccine, and said within 5-15 minutes after her first dose, she had pain in her neck. It felt like a lump or gland. She had lower left numbness of her face and itchiness. She had pressure in her head, especially on the right side. She was experiencing dizziness, was a little foggy, and it's harder to think. Patient explained it wasn't lower left itching of her face, the itching was all over her face. Patient clarified the first thing she felt was within 5 minutes of getting the vaccine. She parked and felt pain in her neck. Immediately, she could feel a distinct wiggly line at the top of her hairline that slowly kept across her head, past the crown of her head a little ways. It felt like pressure that just pushed on the top of her head, and sort of created a light headache on the right side (reported was ongoing, persistent, and worsened). She also noticed pressure behind her eyes (reported as different than the pressure in her head, but it all comes together and all at the same time. The pressure behind her eyes is ongoing, persisting and getting worse. The pressure behind her eyes didn't use to be this strong), and felt a little dizzy, had foggy/difficult thinking, but it was not within the first 15 minutes. She had numbness in her left arm (it was minimized, improved, and more occasional). Ever since receiving the vaccine, patient's heart, blood pressure had gone up. Her usual range was in the 120s and the lower number was in the normal range, around 60-80's, she couldn't remember. Patient said she was 125 over a normal diastolic range (either 60 or 80, she can't remember what was the normal range). She bought a blood pressure cuff after this happened to observe. The first number was about 20-30 higher than normal, based on the day. The second number was between 77-80 and had been up as high as 89. Patient stated things were not doing well. The eye pressure was a big concern. She wanted to know why was her head hurting behind her eyes. Patient explained all of these things she had mentioned was what she can remember at this point, she was not excluding the possibility that she might remember another one because it has been a while. Some symptoms had minimized. Her concern was the foggy head and pressure would come and go at first and now as of two weeks ago, it had not relented at all. It's constant. Her heart seemed to be like it's pounding harder, she guessed that's her pulse, but she was not sure what it's called. It's to the point that it wakes her up. The earliest it had woken up her is 3:30, up to 5:30-6:00, and which was completely not a normal sleeping habit for her. It's a constant thing. Every day now, she wakes up. The pressure never goes away now, it was sporadic, and now its constant, which was an issue for her. As for "pain in the neck", patient stated the pain in her neck was the first thing she noticed when she received her first dose. Patient said the pain was sporadic, comes and goes. The pain in the neck was more seldom than regular at this point, but she can still feel it. She clarified sometimes when she wakes up, she can just feel sensitivity there, but it wasn't painful at this point. She explained the pain in her neck had improved and was persisting. As for "felt distinct wiggly line at hairline/ zig-zag line at the top of her hairline, pressure that just pushed on the top of her head", patient stated it felt like something was riding a zigzag line at the top of her head- it was very clear and it started moving backwards. Along with this came with the dizziness. She clarified she no longer feels the distinct line itself, but what it created (head pressure, fogginess, and achiness) has persisted with occasional breaks, it would go away and would come back. After the first vaccine, these symptoms were infrequent- she clarifies it was frequent but not constant. For two months, it was sort of pretty regular after the second vaccine. Around 01May2021 (around 3 weeks ago), the head pressure, fogginess (reported as ongoing, persisting, and worsened), and achiness started being constant. It makes her body overall feel like it's tired, it's hard to function. She clarified the wiggly line at the top of head and the head pressure was all related. It started with the line and proceeded back across her head. It's all one big symptom. She thinks that's the pressure was getting worse because it never goes away. She felt tired all over and dizzy (reported as ongoing, getting worse, and was associated with her head pressure). It felt like somebody is standing above her, pushing down on her head, and it's hurting inside like a mild headache. After the second vaccine, patient was told to park by the ambulance in case anything happened since these things had happened with her first dose. No emergency room involved. Patient stated she visited physician office for her primary care, the doctor had no knowledge or treatment in place for these symptoms. The outcome of the event "dizziness", "increased heart beat, blood pressure" was not recovered; of other events was unknown.

The patient was given a prescription for blood thinner to take for 21 days (times/day, 15mg) and was told to make an appointment with the primary doctor. The patient's doctor was on spring break and she was walked in to see another doctor who said swelling looked improved and showed her where the clots were located. The patient saw her primary doctor today and she ordered a visit with a hematologist as soon as possible (ASAP) because of concerns about possible underlying issues. The outcome of events, slight swelling of right foot and the problem was a blood clot was recovering. The lot number for the vaccine, BNT162b2, was not provided and will be requested during follow up.

Patient with Hx of AML received 1st dose COVID vaccine 2/10/2021, 2nd dose 3/4/2021. She developed DVT of the right leg, AML relapse. The patient has been diagnosed with AML back in 2016 and underwent several lines of therapy including chemotherapy with 7 and 3 and the last treatment was decitabine with maintenance treatment with ivosidenib. Having severe leukocytosis and right-sided leg edema with DVT raised concern about blast crisis and leukostasis. Patient was admitted to hospital and received. ceftriaxone and azithromycin for possible pneumonia. She underwent leukophoresis on the 4/6/2021, 4/7/2021. Patient received IV heparin gtt for DVT but later on was on hold given worsening thrombocytopenia. She was transferred from one hospital to another hospital. I do not think the development of DVT was due to COVID vaccine. But prior to COVID vaccine, patient was in AML remission.

She had the vaccine, when she woke up the next day her arm was really sore and kept bending it, and thought that she was going to be okay. Almost a week later it was swollen, parallel to it and big, beat red, and hot to touch. Over the next few days she was getting more and more tired, but the arm started getting stiffer. It kept getting more and more read and spreading to the elbow and wrist. When she got up over the weekend and kept putting it off thinking that it would go away and decided to touch it out. Then it started getting numb going into her fingers. On the following Saturday she could not move her arm up due to stiffness. She had some heart flutters, was not feeling right and decided she needed to see her doctor. She saw a NP and then she went to see her cardiologist the same day. He did an EKG and told her that she was fine. That is the provider that told her that whoever gave her the shot hit a blood vessel that caused all of her symptoms. The swelling was starting to go down and did some tests for blood testing, which she states was all negative. She went to an eye doctor who is now sending her to a neurologist. She has now recovered from it completely now.

Swelling in hands, pain in many joints throughout body, neck for a number of days. I called my dr. on April 9 and she told me that although it would be a good choice, she could not give me a steroid pack because I had recently had a dental implant and that would not be good for bone growth. So, she gave me Tramadol to take at night if needed to sleep and Doxycycline, if pain continued more days. It continued for 3 days, but started to feel better on April 11 after having started the doxycycline on April 10.

A 73-Year-old female patient received second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), intramuscular, on 29Jan2021 (Lot Number: EN5318) at age of 72-year-old at SINGLE DOSE in Arm Right for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included atrial fibrillation, hypertension from 2010 and ongoing. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. She was taking her regular prescribed medications which are primary for atrial fibrillation and hypertension, however she has been on these medications for years.The patient previously received first dose of bnt162b2 on 8Jan2021 (Lot Number: EL3246) as SINGLE DOSE in Left arm for covid-19 immunisation. 8 or 9 days later after she received the first dose, she broke out in rash on her upper left chest and shoulder area. It spread, and she then had a patch in the small of her back and then, her legs from her knees to ankles broke out. She reports that after her 1st vaccination she developed a rash 1 week after the injection. Explaining that its a "strange rash some of which I still have on my chest, the small of my back and from my knees to my ankles", The "ones on my legs have never really resolved, its pretty ugly and the dermatologist said it looks like eczema". The doctor gave her some topical steroid cream "Mometaesone" for all of these areas. However, her legs are still not cleared up. She still has lesions there. It looks and is like eczema, but the eczema treatments are not working. For some reason instead of staying as little bumps, the bumps developed into some large, scaly patches. It's those scaly patches that are red and nasty looking which is what the dermatologist has been treating. She was also prescribed Ammonium Lactate lotion which kind of helps with the scaliness that the area produces. The patient received both doses of the COVID vaccine. Both shots were given around 1-2pm. The reaction to the second dose is far more troubling and problematic in all sorts of ways than the first dose. About 7 or 8 days after the second shot, she began to have joint pain in her elbows. She was told she has acute tendinitis and was given oral steroids to take and she was sent to physical therapy. She has had general 24HR a day intense pain in both arms. It's to the point she can't straighten her arms out completely, she can't bend them completely, especially early in the morning when she first wakes up and everything is kind of stiff. She can't even brush her teeth without having to prop her elbow on the edge of the sink. She can't brush her hair, wash her hair without pain. She has to get her partner to undo her bra because she can't. She was given a Medrol pack. With the second one, "My elbows began to hurt, ortho did x-rays and said nothing was wrong with them, and that it may be tendonitis. PT who is a hand and extremity therapist said my swelling is strange and asked if I had Rheumatoid problems. She states she has to go back to dermatologist next week for them to look at the area again. In the mean time, she has taken oral steroids and topical steroids and not much has done any good. She has had reactions autoimmune disorders to both of her vaccinations, the reactions began about a week after getting vaccinated. It was stated that these symptoms are better than dying of COVID but its very unpleasant. She has had X-rays done but it showed there was nothing wrong with her joints. No one has done any blood test. The orthopedic people took X-rays because she told them her elbow hurts. She was told that there was nothing wrong with her elbows, but she does have all this other stuff going on. She clarifies she has tendonitis, tennis elbow, golf elbow- but the hasn't had anything to cause this, and she was told they are really, really bad. Her right wrist is swollen up twice its normal size as is her right elbow. It has been going on now since February, March, April. Her left arm is doing a little bit better but her right arm is pretty acute. She confirms this swelling is still ongoing and persisting in her right arm. The AEs require a visit to Physician Office.

I am a 72 year old woman in very good health. I received the first Pfizer COVID-19 vaccination on March 8, 2021 and everything was fine. I then received the second vaccine on March 29, 2021. The day after I received the 2nd Pfizer vaccine I developed scalp psoriasis. (I only had this once about 6 years ago). I fought it for 2 1/2 weeks. It cleared up on April 21, 2021. That evening my right wrist began to itch terribly. Within a couple hours my right hand and arm swelled and got red up to just below my elbow. I went to the doctor 2 days later on April 23, 2021. I had gotten poked by a cat claw the day this started and was told it was cellulitis even though cellulitis does not itch like that and there was no pain nor soreness. I have had cats for over 35 years and been poked, scratched, and bit many times with no reaction. Two hours after leaving the doctor?s office, the rash and swelling progressed up to the inside of my elbow. I went to emergency and was told again it was cellulitis. They gave me iv anitbiotics and sent me home with a prescription for amoxicilan. Three hours after returning home, my left hand started itching. It then also became inflamed and swollen like the right hand. The swelling went down within 2 days and I continued talking the prescription for the 7 days. I had a follow up visit with my doctor on April 30, 2021, and all looked well. Two days later the itching began again on my right arm in the bend of my elbow. This was May 3, 2021. I went back to emergency and was admitted to the hospital where they were giving me iv vancomycin. I had no pain nor fever. On the 3rd day, May 5, 2021, my right knee and left foot began itching. Both areas then became inflamed and swelled. I saw 6 doctors during this hospital stay and they were all perplexed. They sent an Infectious Disease Specialist who said it was a reaction to the original iv antibiotic that I was given on April 23, 2021, for what was diagnosed as cellulitis. I was released on day 4, May 6, 2021. I never felt comfortable with any of the diagnosis. I was never in any pain, had no fever, nor any other indications of cellulitis except for the rash and swelling. Cellulitis does not go from the right hand to the left hand, to the right elbow, to the right knee, to the left foot! I didn?t agree with the diagnosis of being allergic to the first antibiotic I was given. The only thing I have ever shown a reaction to is Tetnus. Granted we can develop allergies in life but this is a stretch. Upon returning home I called a friend of mine who said that her husband had the same thing happen to him after the second Pfizer vaccine! He scratched the effected area so much he broke skin. He went his doctor and she was smart enough to guess it was a reaction to the vaccine but his scratching may have caused a bit of cellulitis. He was given an anibiotic ointment to use on his scratches and told to take Zyrtec during the day and Benadryl at night. That cleared him upI I have to wonder now how any people are experiencing this after being vaccinated and their doctors are misdiagnosing it as cellulitis. My experience resulted in days of misery and probably around a $20K hospital bills for nothing. I think that people and doctors especially, need to know that the vaccine can cause this to happen so it can be treated correctly without what I was put through. We are not being given all of the information that we should know. I realized no one wants to start a panic about being vaccinated but this is just WRONG. Wrong and causing a lot of unnecessary misery along with costing tens of thousands of dollars in unneeded medical costs. I can be reached by phone to discuss with more detail . Please give this serious consideration. Thank you!

She did not have a prescribing doctor. She went to University . She asked questions from side effects after the first one. Caller doesn't have a reference number. She was reluctant to get the second knowing how sensitive she was to the first dose. She worked with her heart doctor after the symptoms she had after first dose which were heart related.

Patient stated she received the first dose of the vaccine on 16Feb2021. Caller states she had a severe reaction so dramatic that she has decided that she is not going to take the second dose of the vaccine. When she went in they asked if she had an allergy. She said bee sting, Penicillin, and shrimp. They responded and told her if she had a reaction they had an EpiPen there for her. She has not had an EpiPen injection since 1987. She did not remember what it was like. Back in 1987, she got stung by a bee. She felt so bad. She felt that if she closed her eyes she would die.

He saved her life. When she went in on Tuesday she got a woozy after the vaccine. It was not near as bad as what she experienced in 1987. She stayed there 45 minutes and they brought her water and a bagel. She drank the water but did not eat the bagel. She went home and was fine all night. The next morning about 8AM, she started feeling so bad. She felt worse than she did in 1987. She felt like she was going to die if she closed her eye. It did not dawn on her that she was having an anaphylactic reaction. Her friend sent her a text that had four versions of a scripture. The scripture said has different plans for her. She read that to herself and started to feel better. She attributed it to saving her life. She told her cardiologist she is 72 years old and has underlying conditions and she does not want to go through that again. In 1987 the doctor came in the house and the fireman was already there. The doctor came over to her and he just stuck that EpiPen in her thigh. Everything in the body went to the top of her head. She felt like if she could open her head she could let the pain and everything out. Feeling so bad: It lasted for about 15 to 30 minutes. Then caller clarified her friend texted her at 9:26AM, so it may have lasted an hour to an hour and a half. She ached all over. Her body felt dead. It was pained all over. Everything was trapped inside her head. She went to the cardiologist and all her numbers were fine. She told him she was not going to take another shot.

After she spoke to her son over the phone, she had stomach flu symptoms, clarified as nausea and vomiting. A couple weeks later she was out eating, and when she got home, had 30 mins of very mild shivers that was not normal. She put a quilt, blanket, and sheet over herself, and was shaking so hard for a couple days. She said she didn't know what it was that caused the shivers. Her shivers happened, again, a week and a half later. She saw her doctor, and her doctor told her the shivers were a reaction to the COVID-19 Vaccine. Her doctor told her he had seen the same thing (shivers) happen in a few of his other patients. Patient stated she went to her Dr and he prescribed dexamethasone. She said she took the Dexamethasone 2.5mg for 5 days, and she did not have the Dexamethasone 2.5mg NDC, Lot, and Expiry Date. She said she had the normal Dexamethasone side effect of insomnia, but the Dexamethasone helped her immensely. She was so weak and slept so much. It was reported she had about 30 minutes of slight shivers a week and a half after she took the Dexamethasone 2.5mg. She said she hoped her doctor's diagnosis was correct. She said she hadn't had anymore shivers since then. She took it in June and all the shaking went away. She had taken Tylenol for headaches that she experienced occasionally during that time but did not know if the headaches were related to the COVID-19 Vaccine. Patient heard Pfizer was recommending a COVID-19 Vaccine booster shot, if the FDA approved. She wondered if anyone else reported anything like she experienced. She said she didn't know what else would have caused her symptoms. Caller was advised she would be transferred to Pfizer Medical Information for further assistance with her questions. She went to her first doctor appointment on 01Apr2021 for a new patient visit, clarifying she was not sick at the time. She had bloodwork done on 08Apr2021, and her bloodwork was OK, with no problems whatsoever. She donated blood through a blood drive on 21Apr2021. On 07Jun2021, she had bloodwork done, again, after she made a doctor's appointment for her shivers. Her bloodwork was not normal, clarifying her WBCs were elevated (15.5 x 1000), her Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin Cone was low at 31.5 (reference range: 32.0-35.0), her Platelet Count was high at 424 x 1000 (reference range: 140-350), her Monocyte Count was high at 1.22 x 1000, and her Neutrophil Count was high at 12.7 x 1000. She was normally a very healthy person and was current on her flu and pneumonia vaccines. She was getting her second shingles shot, clarifying she had a prior shingles vaccine a long time ago that was 50/50 (effective). She said she was going to go to Walmart today to get her first of two Shingrix Vaccine doses. She said she wanted to get the second Shingrix dose before her flu shot later this year. Patient was concerned about the 3rd shot of Covid-vaccine and having the same symptoms. She was replied that as part of Pfizer and BioNTech continued efforts to stay ahead of the virus causing COVID-19 and circulating mutations, the companies provided an update on booster dosing on 09Jul2021. The use of a 3rd or booster dose is not recommended or authorized, and Pfizer does not suggest the use of the vaccine in any manner other than as described in the authorized EUA Prescribing Information (name) authorized product monograph. Initial data from the ongoing study of booster doses demonstrated a consistent tolerability profile and high neutralization titers against the wild-type virus (the naturally occurring non-mutated virus) and the Beta variant. It was thought that the effects seen against the Beta variant may also be seen in the Delta variant. They were doing studies to confirm this. They expect to publish the data soon in a peer-reviewed journal and submit to regulatory authorities in the coming weeks. Note to frontline: This FAQ should only be used if an HCP or non-HCP specifically asks about the Pfizer statement on booster doses. For HCPs with general inquiries about booster doses, please refer to the SRD titled -Administration of More Than a 2-Dose Series (Booster Dose). The outcome of event for extreme dry heaves, flu, shivers, feeling abnormal was recovered on an unspecified date, for vomiting it was recovering, and the rest unknown. Communication: The caller was provided with phone number of #, option 3, and hours of operation of Monday through Friday 9AM to 5PM, prior to warm transfer; Sender's Comments: As there is limited information in the case provided, the causal association between the events (Shaking, Retching, flu, vomiting .nausea, chills, viral GI ,feeling abnormal) and the suspect drug cannot be excluded , The case will be reassessed once new information is available. The impact of this report on the benefit/risk profile of the Pfizer product is evaluated as part of Pfizer procedures for safety evaluation, including the review and analysis of aggregate data for adverse events. Any safety concern identified as part of this review, as well as any appropriate action in response, will be promptly notified to regulatory authorities, Ethics Committees, and Investigators, as appropriate.

a sharp pain was coming from the side of my back and shooting to my left breast/ a muscle on the side going down of my back/ sharp pain when I make a turn or reach that goes to my breast; when she moves that she has a pain that goes through the lymph nodes or muscles behind her left breast; when she moves that she has a pain that goes through the lymph nodes or muscles behind her left breast; pain was either from something in her left shoulder, or the left side of her back, or a muscle; feeling a little down and out; she can't sleep in the heat at night; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 73-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection, Lot number: EL8982 ), via an unspecified route of administration at left upper arm on 23Jan2021 16:00 at single dose for COVID-19 immunization. There were on patient medical history and concomitant medications. No additional vaccines administered on same date of the Pfizer suspect. No prior vaccinations (within 4 weeks).The patient said she did good on Saturday, 23Jan2021, saying her left arm didn't get sore. She said she did good on Sunday, 24Jan2021. She stated "I didn't get sore, but it just seemed like maybe a few days ago it seemed like a sharp pain was coming from the side of my back and shooting to my left breast (on 25Jan2021). It only does it when I am lying down and not when I am sitting down. I drank plenty of water and continue to drink plenty of water. Today, I am feeling a little down and out because of my breast (25Jan2021). My breast itself is not sore at all. It seems like maybe a muscle on the side going down of my back. There is a sharp pain when I make a turn or reach that goes to my breast. Well, if you have arthritis it could be that." She said it seemed when she moves or turns, she has a sharp pain in her left breast. The patient asked if the sharp pain she was experiencing in her left breast area were possibly her lymph nodes. She clarified her left breast was not sore, but the area behind her left breast has a pain go through it. She said it was just when she moves that she has a pain that goes through the lymph nodes or muscles behind her left breast. She said she normally doesn't sleep on her left side, but if she sleeps on her left side, the pain behind her left breast was better. She said she does not have big breasts and was not wearing a bra when she had the pain in her left breast area. She said she was wondering if the pain she has is from her lymph nodes or muscles in her back. She said the pain was either from something in her left shoulder, or the left side of her back, or a muscle. As treatment, patient reported that she has been holding her left breast area when she moves. She said holding the left breast area helps lessen the pain, but the pain was still there. She said she has been trying to troubleshoot her pain. She said she drinks coffee every day and thought maybe she was drinking too much caffeine. She said she can't sleep in the heat at night, so she turns the heat off in her house at midnight, but her house was still warm (70 degrees) when she wakes up in the morning. She said she thought that maybe the cold weather got into her back and left shoulder. She said she checked her left breast for lumps and didn't find any lumps. She said the only thing left for her to do was to contact her gynecologist and go have a mammogram. She doesn't take any medicine. She said she does take something for sleep as needed, but she would have to be going without sleep for a long time before she would take that medicine. She reported she is otherwise a healthy person. She said people talk about hormones changes after when a person used to have a period, and she sometimes doesn't know if her pain would be because of that. She said she may have irritation in her breasts from wearing a bra that may be too tight, but the pain she was experiencing now was different from that pain. The events did not require a visit to Emergency Room or Physician Office. The outcome of the events she can't sleep in the heat at night and feeling a little down and out was unknown; and not recovered outcome for the other events.

And yesterday they called her from the hospital and they said that she didn't have the virus. And she asked them about the blood work and they told her if there was anything more than they would call her. So, she thinks all this came from that injection. She called because this was not guaranteed if this was from injection. When confirmed that COVID test was negative and blood work report was not out, she stated they haven't called her that meant her blood work was okay. The swollen leg has been gone down and blood once in a while she sees a little bit. They gave her 2 prescriptions, one was antibiotic and one is steroid. Due date for the next shot is 12Feb2021. The outcome of the events was recovering.

Got the vaccine and within 30-an hour she was seated, waiting and she developed a tingling/numbness on her bottom lip to the center of her lip. It spread throughout the entire bottom lip. Then it moved to the left hand corner of her mouth as well, and then moved up to the left side of her face to her eye, and then to the corner of the left hand of her head. This is a tingly pressure, and it then developed into a hard headache concentrated in one spot. She went into heavy sweating. The pharmacist was watching her and came over to her, she was there for about an hour and a half. She had a bottle of water trying to cool off, and her tongue was getting a bad taste in her mouth, and numbness in the back of her tongue. The pharmacist gave her Benadryl to take and she sat there for a while and was starting to feel really shaky, and she thought she would go back to her apartment to get out of being around other people. She was feeling weak to walk, and overwhelmingly tired. Once she did get into her apartment she her taste buds felt dry. After several days of this reaction, little by little it subsided, but the sweating and chills continue even up until today, 3/26/21. She goes to bed dry and wakes up soaked from sweat due to profuse sweating. She has been yawing a lot lately and if she does yawn she immediately has chills. It's been back and forth with the chills/fever. She can be perspiring on one end and the other end cold. She tried to talk to her doctor but told her to seek out UC for her symptoms as he is too busy. There is eye strain that is bothering her which leads her into wanting to sleep and sleeps for extended periods of time and really exhausted. Has also had runny nose, hands and feet swelling. Her right hand is kind of like a tingling/weakness sensation.

The clinical course was reported as follows: Consumer reported that 2 hours after receiving the first vaccine dose, she experienced headache, fever, chills, nausea, and diarrhea. Fever "went away" by Monday (22Mar2021) morning. Consumer asked, will she have the same or worse symptoms in the second dose. She is not pregnant at the time of vaccination.

AM. Resumed ADLs Tues. Prior to vaccination, the patient was diagnosed with COVID-19. No covid tested post vaccination. No other vaccine in four weeks. Her personal physician recommended she not receive second shot. There were two reasons. One was that she had COVID in early Dec2020, and she received the monoclonal antibodies. The side effects she had after first shot were robust. Based on that information, it was his medical opinion for her not to receive the second shot. She has not been able to get that opinion. Does Pfizer have any recommendation for getting second dose after having COVID and receiving monoclonal antibodies? She had the COVID prior to getting the vaccine. She was given the monoclonal antibodies on day 5 after symptoms and day 4 after the positive PCR test. No follow-up attempts are needed; information about lot/batch number cannot be obtained.

After 1st vaccine injection (3/4/21 L-arm), I developed a sudden and continuous itching of left arm, shoulder, left side toward my back that last about 1 and 1/2 days. I looked up COVID 19 symptoms and found that symptoms could arise after 3 to 7 days so I reported to my pharmacist but was not alarmed and neither was he. The soreness from the first injection (L arm) got a little worse with some swelling instead of better (like a flu shot w/o swelling ) but I was not really alarmed about that either at the time. I received my 2nd COVID 19 Injection 3/25/21 (Rt arm) and had mild soreness, swelling and fatigue (I sleep almost nonstop for 3 days) but nothing out of the ordinary with this 2nd vaccine. Then noticing the difference between the Left and Right arms, my left arm was more swollen and much more tender than the right arm. For the record and because joint pain is also a side effect of the vaccine, I noticed other changes to my left upper extremity but ignored these changes due to my chronic pain history until the pain became unbearable. They are: Sudden and severe pain in left thumb radiating up the inside of my arm/wrist; I was unable to grab or hold unto objects (cups, silverware, dishes, etc.). Off and on, this pain and swelling continued up into my left arm along with the periodic bouts of itching in my injection site. I mentioned and showed it to my pharmacist and he suggested I report it as soon as possible. Having trouble obtaining a readable copy of the VAERS form, I went to an Urgent Care Center after waking up and could not move my arm (slept on it all night). Because of my health history and a Rotator Cup injury in June 2016, they contributed my current problem to that shoulder injury; they mentioned nothing of my report about the symptoms after the COVID 19 Vaccine. I was sent for X-Rays and MRI of my left arm/shoulder and referred to an Orthopedic Surgeon (Dr. who recommended a complete shoulder replacement. By the time of my appointment with him, I was using my arm with little to moderate pain, taking Protonics and Meloxicam and using ice packs as needed for pain (there were multiple days I went without pain meds but tenderness and swelling still apparent). I am a little skeptical about there diagnosis of it being related to my old rotator cup injury (6-2016) because, the pains are different: 1. the original injury resulted in a frozen arm with no movement until couple months of therapy, in which I regain full use of my arm until the first dose of my COVID 19 Vaccine (3/4/21). As mentioned because of my Chronic Pain History, I am not quick to seek medical attention unless the pain appears to me, to be out of the ordinary scope of my pain. Therefore, I am reporting this out of concern of the ongoing soreness/swelling in the L-Arm Vaccine Site ( much greater than rt arm) and wondering if this soreness/swelling and warm to touch, could be a reaction to the COVID 19 Injection, which could be causing an old injury to flare up (maybe inflammation). Lastly, following the development of the Pifzer and Moderna Vaccine, it was recently reported that some teenagers that received the vaccine had developed Myocarditis, inflammation of a heart muscle and/or inflammation around the Pericardium of the heart and were [complaining of chest pain]. At the age of 73, I have a healthy heart history without medications other than the baby asprin but have also felt these symptoms [in my chest and breast] since taking the vaccines. Some of the pain is sudden and forceful until it stop me in my tracks; I have increase my aspirin because of this. I am a former smoker but quit Feb 2013. I have also had my yearly mammogram and had a normal reading. In summary, I believe my symptoms might be a result of the vaccine as it relates to joint pain, swelling, and inflammation but don't understand why it is lasting so long. I am also following up with healthcare providers to make certain that I don't have other developing health issues. Therefore, I look forward to hearing from CDC and hope this information helps me, as well as, your efforts to perfect the vaccines and keeping the public safe.

The same day after after receiving the vaccine I noticed while I was doing yard work my leg was swollen, and so I shook it off as if it was nothing. Later on I realized that it didn't get smaller my leg started to get bigger. So I called the doctor and they advised me to come in immediately to do an ultrasound. They later on told me that the swelling was due to a blood clot that formed and they prescribed Xarelto 15 mg 2x day and with that prescription I didn't see any improvement so they prescribed me to do 20mg 1x day and I'm just now seeing results now.

A 74-years-old female patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Solution for injection), dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration, in left arm on 27Jan2021 (Batch/Lot Number: EL9263) as single dose for covid-19 immunisation.

After vaccination from that day until now (11Feb2021), patient still has pain on the injection site. She wanted to know if that is usual. She is concerned because she had heard that the AEs from the second dose are worse than from the first dose. Patient family doctor didn't want to entertain her concern. Her doctor said that she should refer to the one who gave the vaccine which is from the County in (State). Patient couldn't believe her doctor wouldn't want to take care of me since he said my AE is related to the vaccine. This was the weirdest thing she had from her doctor.Patient called and stated that she was am a person who received the Pfizer vaccine 16 days ago and she was experiencing still sore muscles in the arm where it was given she could not bend my arm as far as she use to be able to she cannot flex it toward her shoulders and its she just talked to her doctor's office where she told them sahe was having some adverse effects from the shot. Patient was calling to see if got any same reports of peoples whose arms got stiff, muscles are stiff, can't flex, sore, even like she say she was now 16 days after the injection she think that's a little bit long to still be feeling something. Patient also mentioned she was beginning to wonder if she going to get rid of this soreness in her arm or is that something permanent. Patient explained further when she first got it she did experience localized pain, I did not experience fever, did experience though shivering or chills but kind of thought that was because it was chilly but it might have been from the vaccine now that she think about it but she was not sure mostly it was the soreness in my arm that's her main concern is this lingering soreness in the arm after 16 days she had the injection on the 27Jan. At end of call mentioned she had seen the general side effects and may have experienced a few more other than this one but this is the one that's still with her not being able to utilize my left arm like she was used to be able to do even just reaching up to a cabinet for something in a higher cabinet or something she can't do that without feeling she was going to drop what she was reaching for and its sore its sore to do it. Reaching for a skillet down below in a lower cabinet it's like no it's not going to work or getting a gallon of milk out of the refrigerator I almost dropped it. So she feel like what was going on here I should be over this by now she can't, with both arm she use to be able to bend at the elbow and touch my shoulder well she cannot still can with my right arm but with the left arm she can't do that. She like 2 inches from being able to touch my shoulder. Fixing her hair she can't reach back behind my head very easily its with pain and effort to brush and she was left handed so maybe I shouldn't have gotten it in my left arm here I am 16 days later and she still feel like I can't utilize my arm like she use to be able to not totally disabled but know its disability in it and its annoying the pain was annoying even taking Ibuprofen.Patient really didn't have much effects, a little bit of chills but they were having cold weather, she was from (State) so she might get a chill if she opens up the windows. She really had no significant adverse effects at first except soreness in the arm, she says of the things recanted on the internet, she didn't have fever, she may have had some chills but she was lethargic, she didn't feel like doing anything, so she guesses she would say tiredness for the first day or so but what bothers her is that was 27Jan and she still does not have full use of the arm in movement. The arm used to be able to, without hesitation, reach behind her head to brush her hair or reach to fix her necklaces those things she couldn't do and she would say oh goodness what is going on. She has pain if she tries to force it and she thought well she will exercise to limber it up. She is not having continual pain like if she leaves her arm down comfortably but trying to do activity like reaching up to her shoulder or her neck or behind her head. She couldn't do that she would say the last few days it has been a little bit better but there is still pain there. Her vaccine card is in her purse she is going to be going go to the appointment in a couple of days and it scares her because she don't want to have her arm on the other side hurt, if she gets she was going to ask them to put it on the other side but she doesn't want to go through this again and what if it is permanent and both arms are then disabled she would rather have one of them working than both of them. Prior to the injection, her arm had no problem. She states she cannot touch her shoulder anymore and is unable to reach behind her neck to latch a necklace. She states now, she feels discomfort in her forearm and not as much in the upper arm. She states sometimes the pain goes into her hand; she states while she is quietly watching tv, she notices some throbbing going into her hand. She's not affected by arthritis and things like that and she's had pretty good health. She has gotten the flu and pneumonia shot and any other injections with no problem. She had a comfortable initial stick when she received the COVID vaccine with no particular pain at the time of injection. She stated she did not want to do anything for 2 days and was really tired with a stiff and sore arm. She called the doctor after 2 weeks and was not able to get ahold of a doctor. Caller is wondering if there have been reports of duration of this side effect for this long and whether or not she should receive the second shot. The outcome of the events not resolved for injection site pain and myalgia and unknown for rest of the events.

The rash hurts a little bit.; the rash does hurt a little bit; This is spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 74-years-old female patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE, Solution for injection, Lot number: ER8727), via an unspecified route of administration in left arm on 25Mar2021 at 10:40AM as 1st dose, single for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included hives, rheumatic fever, cataract surgery and lobectomy. The patient received shingles vaccine in 2018 and pneumonia vaccine. Concomitant medications were not reported. It was reported that she had no symptoms from the first dose, maybe she felt a little tired. 15-16 days after receiving the first dose of the COVID vaccine, on 9 Apr 2021, she developed a rash. The rash was itchy. She has not changed anything about her life style. She has not changed where she lives, laundry soap, or diet. In the past, if she has had hives, they have been very little. The rash on her now is moving around. The rash moves around from her bra line, stomach, back and left side of her neck. The left side of her neck is also itching. The rash does not hurt. Clarified that the rash does hurt a little bit. She describes that she wants to scratch the rash, clarifies that it almost feels like poison ivy where she wants to itch it. On 12 Apr 2021, she went to see a nurse practitioner. The nurse practitioner prescribed her a high dose hydrocortisone cream USP 2.5% (Lot number: AC11168, Expiration date: 20 Nov 2021) and it did not do much good. It only helped a little bit, whenever she was using it together with Benadryl. The rash also moved to the back of her neck, and side of her neck. She was excited that maybe the COVID vaccine aggravated the shingles vaccine she received in 2018. She received the second dose of the COVID vaccine (Lot number: ER8731), via an unspecified route of administration in left arm on 15 Apr 2021 at 10:40AM. Before she received the second dose of the COVID vaccine, she showed her rash to the nurse at the hospital. The nurse at the hospital said that she saw redness and bumpiness, but the nurse recommended her to go ahead and get the second dose of the COVID vaccine. The nurse stated that she was surprised they did not give caller a steroid shot. She happened to have a routine yearly appointment with her dermatologist on 21 Apr 2021. By then, the rash had gotten worse because she had to stop taking Benadryl. She had to stop taking Benadryl because it was making her blood pressure go high. Since stopping Benadryl, the rash got worse, and was itching and swelling up. Benadryl lot number: unknown. She states that it was written in white writing and she can not read it. Benadryl NDC: 50580-226-51 Benadryl expiration date: unknown. The dermatologist prescribed her an antihistamine and a cream. The very next day, Thursday 22 Apr 2021, the rash was almost better. From 22 Apr 2021 to 26 Apr 2021 she was doing good, and not bad at all. She still had hives in little places that would move around. The rash had not gone to her legs or top of feet. The rash was basically around her waistline. She has been using cold packs and taking two antihistamines a day. She was doing pretty good for a couple of days, until the right side of her leg swelled up. The rash is still there, and it hurts. She is continuing using the antihistamine cream and cold pack. She was anxious to see if her rash gets worse about 15 days after receiving the second dose of COVID vaccine. Since her rash appeared about 15 days after receiving the first dose of the COVID vaccine. Her doctor told her that her rash could very well be from the COVID vaccine. Her doctor told her that the COVID vaccine could have aggravated something in her body. Whenever she was five years old, she survived rheumatic fever. She has never had any problems with the shingles vaccine or pneumonia vaccine. She does not get the flu vaccine. The COVID vaccine did not affect her arm at all. She was only a little tired. She is tired now. She thinks that she might be tired now because she is taking an antihistamine. Antihistamine name, lot number, NDC and expiration date: not provided. Her dermatologist said that he did not want to give her a steroid shot, because that would be one more thing to add. Her dermatologist also said that a steroid shot might not last long enough. The morning the rash had moved. The rash was worse on the right side, upper part of her leg, towards her hip. The rash was also on her buttocks. All other areas are okay this morning. She does not have any allergies to mediations. She has been through several surgeries here and there. She has never had anything like this happen before. This is the first time she has ever experienced anything like this. She first noticed it whenever she was outside working in the yard. The rash started on her knee. She had been kneeling over a little bit. She put some old cortisone cream on the rash on her knee and then it went away. On 10 Apr 2021, the rash was really bad. It will still there on 11 Apr 2021, and she could not get an appointment with her primary care physician. She would say over all that the moving rash is generally getting better. Expect for this morning, whenever it came back on her right side. She knows that the rash is not from her laundry detergent. She knows that the rash is from the COVID vaccine. Because of her age. Her and her husband both received the COVID vaccine. Her husband did not have any symptoms, and her husband is older than her. Her husband went through cancer treatments. She was calling to report symptoms after receiving the COVID vaccine. She was asking if she called the right place to report her symptoms. She was calling about the Pfizer COVID vaccine. She does not think Primary / Prescribing Healthcare Professional Info is necessary to include because she has not seen her primary care physician about her symptoms. Her and her husband talked to people who had COVID that were younger than them. Those people told her and her husband that they did not want to catch COVID. Those people missed a lot of work because of COVID. Her and her husband wanted the J&J COVID vaccine at first. Her and her husband were going to wait to get it, but it was not offered in their area. She was really glad that her and her husband chose to get the Pfizer COVID vaccine. She got the COVID vaccine because she does not want COVID. She does not have any medications, medical history or testing that she feels is relevant to include. She had cataract surgery years ago. She has a chip in her breast from a lobectomy. Caller did not wish to clarify or provide any more information. She asked to not include that in the report, because it was not relevant. All of her surgeries were years ago. Patient visited Physician Office. because of her rash. She was asking if other people have reported a rash. She saw on the internet that other people had rashes. The outcome of the event itchy rash was recovering and outcome of the other events was unknown. No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information is expected.

She got her vaccine, had no reaction. She told them that she had a problem with apples and they made her stay for an additional 30 minutes, and was feeling okay and they went home. Then about 3-4 weeks and she woke up one morning, and her mouth was swollen like she had an overdose of Botox all the way around. Then it seemed like it was moving and half of her lip swelling was gone. She got on Benadryl right away and then she thought maybe she had eaten something that she was allergic to, had some fruit thinking that maybe it was in a container of fruit as that's reaction she had with applies. They called the doctor and he wasn't in, but a NP saw her and she gave her a shot of steroids and put her on the steroid dose pack. It took about 4-5 days and then it started clearing up and it was gone. Then all of a sudden 3 weeks later her face started swelling up, the jaw area was swelling up and it moved around. She went to the ER and was given another prescription for the steroid dose pack and was told to take Benadryl. Then it went away again. Then it started happening another day, her left eye was closing up completely and the eyebrow went all the way up and was swollen. For the first month or so it was in her face. They went to visit some friends in Arizona for a week and she was fine. Then, she started with her forehead swelling and she thought it may have been he sun, but she does not stay in the sun long as she covers her head, this lasted about 2 days and went away. Then they went home and she called him again and said that she had the reaction again on her face and her forehead and the top of her head in her hairline. In between this she saw an allergist and tested her and said that she had no allergy to apples, other fruits and nuts, and informed her that her blood work was fine. Then again, just recently 4 days ago she then broke into a rash, her forehead was rosy and her chest was red and itching. She saw her doctor and he gave her another allergist for her to see and referred her then, but has not seen that doctor yet. The rash seems to be gone at this time, no swelling at this time, but feels terrible. She has had 4-5 outbreaks since the vaccine, and they continue to keep happening, but in different areas every time. She is okay for today.

I had two symptoms that are normal, they were on the list of side effects, I had soreness on my left arm, I couldn't sleep on my left arm due to this soreness. This started the day the soreness started. The following day and up till now I felt very tired and like I needed to take a nap. Due to work I have not been able to nap. On Sunday I noticed I had a fever blister on the right side of face, under my lip by my chin. It looked like a herpes blister. I rarely get them unless there is a serious stressor to my body or if my body is emotionally stressed. Valacyclozir I took 4 of those in the morning and 4 tablets in the evening after noticing them. I put a cream on the blister. On Tuesday or Wednesday 3 or 4 days after the vaccine I felt a pain in my gum by back two teeth, the gums were very painful when I brushed my teeth or put my tongue on it. I went to the dentist Friday the 22nd, however the dentist said it was intraoral herpes that he believes it is looked to the vaccine. Dr. believes the COVID vaccine activated the dormant herpes in my system . He said says it is located over the Greater Palatine Foramen. The herpes on my chin went away. I still feel light sensitivity and fatigued. Dr recommended to see my dermatologist. Either the 22nd or 23rd I had a virutal appointment with my dermatologist. She recommended I take 4 Valacyclozir in the AM and PM. And then 1 day for 10 days. Both doctors recommended not getting the 2nd dose until the herpes vaccine goes away. Once it goes away they suggested taking the Valacyclozir before taking the 2nd dose. I am still not feeling normal. My dentist said he was going to consult a group of dentists to see if any other dentists have seen the correlation between the COVID vaccine and activating the herpes virus. I plan to consult my PCP about if I should delay the 2nd dose.

The outcome of the events was unknown. Patient received her first Pfizer vaccine on 09Jan2021. Patient explains she has had adverse reactions to the vaccine ever since she received it. Patient confirms she took the vaccine on Saturday, 09Jan2021. On Sunday, 10Jan2021, she started having a little bit of dizziness and feeling just not quite right. Sunday night, she went to bed and woke up at around 3:30 a.m. with severe chills and a fever. Her fever was a little over a 100. She states it took about 2 hours to get her chills under control. She took 2 Tylenol at that time. That day (11Jan2021) she ran fever off and on all day. The next day (12Jan2021), she seemed to be better. She had a low-grade fever, but she was better. She was just kind of tired from the day before. But then, that night, she ended up with the same thing again- she woke up at 4am with chills. Her fever had gone up 101.7, and she ended up taking 2 Tylenol and so forth. She got up that morning around 10 am, and was nauseated. She threw up that morning. She felt really bad. She was experiencing tiredness, muscle aches. (At this point it was about Tuesday (12 Jan) or Wednesday (13 Jan). There was one day during the day, she felt better, but a day went by and she ended up having the chills and fever again. Every time her fever kept going up. Her fever this particular night was 102 something. About Wednesday night, when she had the chills and fever, her fever went up to 103.8. That next morning, she called her doctor's office and tried to get an appointment. She could not get an appointment with the office. Her office ended up doing a televist and sending her a Prednisone pack to take for the reaction that it seemed she was having. She started the prednisone pack which seemed to take the fever down and the chills ended up stopping. Caller clarifies further she believes she has recovered from the fever and chills. The Prednisone pack seemed to kind of make those symptoms go away. However, she still felt really bad. This went on all weekend again. Tuesday of this week, (19Jan2021), she still felt really bad. She called her doctor again and her doctor wouldn't see her because of the symptoms she is having after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine are the same symptoms of the actual COVID-19 virus. She clarifies further the adverse effects of the shot are also same ones as the COVID-19 virus. Her doctor suggested she either go to the Emergency Room or to an Urgent Care. Patient called the Urgent Care and they were able to do a COVID test on her to check and see if she did have COVID-19. She confirms this test was on Tuesday, 19Jan2021. The results came back negative. However, they did another swab test. The patient is unsure what the second swab test was for but was told it would be a couple days before they would have the results of this test. At this point, they put her on a Z-pak. Patient mentions she has heart problems. She has nitroglycerin for any problems that she has. She started having some heart pains when she was down to about 3 tablets of that Prednisone pack she was taking. When she took one of the Prednisone tablets, within 30 minutes of taking it, she started having chest pains. She clarifies it started in her throat and went down to her chest. She took 2 nitroglycerin's to get her feeling back to normal/better. Caller doesn't provide NDC, Lot number or expiration date for the Nitroglycerin she took when probed. Patient mentions her cheeks had been pink. She doesn't really know but she may have a little swelling in her face. She can't figure that out herself. She was experiencing dizziness and weakness. Today is the first day which is the 13th day after receiving the vaccine, she has felt like trying to get this stuff together and her thoughts together to try and figure out what is going on with her. She tried calling her primary doctor and this urgent care and she couldn't get anybody to see her. Patient got her Prednisone pack filled at (Pharmacy name), (Address details) The prescription was issued to her on Thursday, 14Jan2021, but she didn't start taking the pack until Saturday. On Saturday, that's when her fever had went up to 103 and she knew she needed to take the Prednisone pack. They are 4mg tablets and she started out taking 6 tablets the first day and then her dose decreased every day. NDC: 164793723369, Lot: 20K0041P, she believes the second digit is a zero and not a "D", Expiry date: Aug2022. Z-pak: patient states she no longer has the box, therefore she is not sure of the dose and how it was prescribed. She makes the comment she believes the first day it was 2 tablets. NDC: Unknown, Lot: 7996030, Expiry: Feb2022. She clarifies she did not take Tylenol as stated earlier. She took Kirkland's brand, Acetaminophen. They are 500mg tablets. She provides the following product information: Lot: 2GE1779B. The last digit is either a "B" or an 8/, Expiry date: May2015; patient clarifies she knows they just bought this bottle, but she thinks her husband put his extra pills in the wrong bottle. No further details were provided or obtained in regard to this statement. The patient wants to find out about this and what is going on with her. To her understanding and her reading information, she is scheduled to take her next shot 27Jan2021. She is not supposed to take it then, correct? Investigations: patient confirms she had a COVID-19 test done (she is not sure what type of test- PCR, Antibody, etc), they swabbed her nose and the results came back negative. She had a second test done, where they swabbed her nose again, but she hasn't got the results back. She isn't sure what that test is for. Vaccination Facility Type was Hospital. Additional Vaccines Administered on Same Date of the Pfizer Suspect was no. Did any AE(s) require a visit to: Emergency Room was No, she is trying to keep herself out of the hospital. Physician Office? Her doctor would not see her but offered a virtual visit. She did go to the Urgent Care. Prior Vaccinations (within 4 weeks): Caller states she went to the foot doctor on 22Dec2021 (pending clarification). She was given injections in her feet because she has bone spurs and arthritis in her feet. Patient does not know exactly what kind of injection it was. She confirms she has no name, ndc, lot and expiry date for the injections she received. Patient asks the call handler, what should she have done on this? She was lost. She read the information that was provided to her and she doesn't feel there was sufficient information on what to do if you had a reaction. She guesses the best thing she can be told is to call #. She didn't know it was a # emergency. She didn't know what she was supposed to do. It was hard for her to get any information out of anybody as to what to do. The outcome of the events was unknown.

About 11 am I was masked in church and developed a tickle in my throat. I cleared my throat to no relief. I took 2 cough drops. About 11:30 I got a bottle of water. No relief after drinking 8 ounces. I left the service, went outside, removed my mask and was coughing forcibly for about 15 minutes or so. Expectorated clear phlegm 6 - 8 times. Gradually I settled to normal. Just some residual soreness in throat. This was an unusual occurrence for me. I was covid positive in early Dec, but had a very mild case. Back in the 70's I would have reaction to allergy shots. I waited in the office 15 minutes, but 45 minutes later when I arrived home I had huge hives and severe itching.

Hives; Itching; She had cracking creases with serous fluid coming out of both hands; She was covered big blisters; blotches; Her hands were so swollen after getting the dose of the vaccine that she couldn't get them closed; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable nurse, the patient. A 75-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE; Lot Number: EN5318), via an unspecified route of administration in the left arm on 05Feb2021 at 12:20 (at the age of 75-year-old) as a single dose for COVID-19 vaccination. Medical history included reverse total shoulder replacement on 26Jan2021, cardiomyopathy from an unknown date, and type 2 diabetes mellitus from an unknown date. There were no concomitant medications. The patient previously received her shingles shot (MANUFACTURER UNKNOWN) and flu shot (MANUFACTURER UNKNOWN); both in Oct2020 for immunization and had no reactions. On 05Feb2021 at 16:00, the patient experienced hives and itching. On 05Feb2020, the patient had blotches, blistering, swollen hands, and cracked creases with serous fluid coming out of the hands. The clinical course was as follows: She had absolutely no problem at the time of the injection, no soreness with it she was fine and then she had welts starting with 2-3 then all over her body, that were itching terribly. They stared on the left wrist, both hands. The patient took diphenhydramine hydrochloride (BENADRYL); but it did not help. The patient then went to the emergency room (ER). By the time she got to the ER, the hives moved up to her abdomen and she was covered in big blistery looking raisings and few small raises on her trunk and arms. The hives were concentrated from her fingers to her elbow, and then there were other blotches on her elbows to her fingers that were real concentrated. She stayed at the hospital for 3 hours, but she was not admitted. At the ER, she received pantoprazole (PROTONIX), diphenhydramine hydrochloride, hydroxyzine (ATARAX) and prednisone (MANUFACTURER UNKNOWN). The patient also stated that her hands were so swollen after getting the dose of the vaccine that she couldn't get them closed and she had cracking creases with serous fluid coming out of both hands. The swelling went down a little bit the next day; but she still had the blotches. She said the itch was tolerated. However, the blistering started again. Her doctor put her on a sliding scale of prednisone and diphenhydramine at 25 mg every 6 hours. The clinical outcome of the swelling hands was recovering; while that of the blotches and blisters were not recovered. The clinical outcomes of the hives, itching, and cracked creases with serous fluid coming out of the hands were unknown. The patient assessed the events to be medically significant as she had never experienced anything like this.; Sender's Comments: Considering the temporal relationship, a possible contribution role of vaccination with BNT162B2 to the onset of the reported events cannot be excluded. The case will be reassessed should additional information become 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.

A 75-year-old female patient received the first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Solution for injection; lot number: EL3248, NDC/UPC number and expiry date were unknown), via an unspecified route of administration in the right arm on 12Jan2021 at 10:00 AM at a single dose for COVID-19 immunization. The vaccine facility type was reported as the "doctor's office/urgent care." Relevant medical history included high blood pressure, but it was controlled blood pressure/hypertension; asthma, for which she was not taking medication at the time of the report, because it was under control; non allergic rhinitis; pre diabetes; and a little overweight. The patient further stated that she had just general medical history, which she had everything under control. Concomitant medications included lisinopril, montelukast sodium (SINGULAIR), atorvastatin (LIPITOR), acetylsalicylic acid (BABY ASPIRIN), and metformin. The patient previously took to iodine, doxycycline, erythromycin, and azithromycin, for which the patient had known allergies to all of it. The patient was not pregnant at the time of vaccination. The patient had no other vaccine in four weeks. The patient had no COVID-19 prior vaccination. She was not tested for COVID-19 post vaccination. The patient stated that on 12Jan2021 at 10:30, she had adverse reactions to the Pfizer vaccine; she had severe allergic reaction within about 30 minutes and then they call the paramedic she ended up and they gave her a shot, which she did not know if it was prednisone. It was further reported that she took her inhaler too as they said she was wheezing, which she didn't really feel in her lungs. The patient just felt that what happen was she went to the car as they said to wait 15 minutes as written, and she always follow the rules and the whole thing they said, she waited 30 minutes, so she went down side of her car then she figured that she could just drive off drive home. So, she was in car sitting or waiting for the last 30 minutes and all of a sudden she felt right through her chest like through her right side kind of going into her left; it was weird like she could feel going into her body, then suddenly her heart start beating really fast, and then she pulled down the vizor and looked in the rearview mirror and her face was all red, so she go back to the site. That's how she transpired and then, that's how the reaction was. It was further reported that the patient waited 15 minutes in the office, then went to car to wait additional 15 minutes, and suddenly felt strange sensation in her chest and her heart started beating very rapidly. She pulled down the visor in car and saw her face growing red and swelling slightly and her breathing was becoming labored. She had read on side effects on information she was given on departure stating symptoms of an allergic reaction. She returned to the facility at which time she was treated. The adverse events (AE) resulted in a doctor or other healthcare professional office/clinic visit. The patient had no investigation assessment. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of all the events, which included that the patient was given a shot of 125 mg of methylprednisolone sodium succinate (SOLU-MEDROL), but another report said they gave her prednisone so they were kind of conflicting in the report, but it was a shot, and also cetirizine (ZYRTEC) and famotidine (PEPCID), and her inhaler for wheezing. The patient recovered from all the events on an unspecified date.

An EKG performed on 15Feb2021 as pending results. The event of breathing problems was serious due to disability. The events mild fever, roof of mouth itching, muscle ache, joint ache, rapid heart rate up to 130 and itchy skin were medically significant. The patient reported that initially, the roof of her mouth started itching. It literally happened as soon as she had the vaccine. She took a Benadryl. She didn't have a skin irruption, but did have itchy skin. The next day, she had a low grade fever. She had muscle and joint aches. She had no rash, but a little nausea. She had breathing problems. She had asthma issues and wheezing after the vaccine. That is how she described her breathing issues. She had a rapid heart rate. It went up to 130. It could of been because of fever, her breathing, or pain. There was a period of days then it resolved. On 15Feb2021, she feels almost human. She had routine arthritis lab drawn on 15Feb2021. They showed a CRP level of 11.5 which shows inflammation. She normally was below 0.29 which was within normal limits. That was an extreme difference. That was a lot of inflammation. The patient had to get her nebulizer out to breathe. She has taken Tylenol a couple of times. Her lab work was essentially normal. The CBC and chemical panel was okay. The patient thoughts the fever was important because she has been immunocompromised for years by Methotrexate. She has had pneumonia before with no fevers. Her eyes were also really sore. They bothered her. She already had to use eye drops. That was 11Feb2021 it was gone on 15Feb2021 but it kind of lasted a few days. Her muscles were better, but her joints still hurt some.

Her muscles aren't hurting now, but her joints were but that was kind of normal. Her peak flow was way down on 14Feb2021. It was at 250. She did finally get it up to 350 by using her nebulizer. Her best effort normally is 450. Her peak flow was down quite a bit. She has been having breathing changes for a year. They were not sure what it was about. It could be an acute episode of something. On unknown date (next morning as reported), her pulse was 90-100. Now her heart rate was only elevated with activity. Her heart rate was down in the 70s, but when moving it was in the low 100s. With activity it was still up. It was hanging out in the 70s except exercising. She considers walking across the room exercising. All her other labs were in within normal limits. The patient wanted to know if the inflammatory response was secondary to the vaccine.; 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 serious 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.

She also reported fingers on right were all swollen and that she does have arthritis. She further described the events as on Wednesday she started getting a little pain in her right wrist joint. She does have arthritis, but this pain was stronger, and her hand and fingers on right were all swollen in comparison to her other hand, and her knuckles seemed bigger. States that the pain got very strong and by the next morning she could barely move her arm; even though it was only her wrist that hurt, moving any part of her arm made her wrist her more, so she started icing it and took Tylenol for Arthritis 650mg Extended Release; she took it twice, one each time and reported that it probably didn't work. Caller clarifies statement about it probably not working; stating that she didn't notice a difference after taking the Tylenol. She asked if these events, occurring eight days after the vaccine could be vaccine side effects or is this just a flare up on her arthritis that is unrelated to the vaccine. She added that she had been doing a lot of "chopping" while cooking on the night that this happened so that may have caused the flare up. She has a Medrol pack on hand for things like this (4mg tablets). She started it today and took two tablets before breakfast and one tablet at lunch. She states that it has already made a difference in her pain. She stated her concern, however, which is that she found that taking a steroid could affect the vaccine if taken before getting the vaccine, and right now she is in-between the two doses. Her second dose is scheduled for 16Feb2021. She inquired as to if she can finish this dose pack without messing up the vaccine. The clinical outcome of headache was reported as recovered. The clinical outcomes of hand swelling, wrist pain, hand pain and swelling of wrists were reported as not recovered. The clinical outcomes of arthritis flare up, swelling of fingers and could not move her arm were unknown.

cellulitis; Bacterial skin infection; right arm where I got the injection turning all red and swollen; arm swelling; bursitis; Muscle pain; joint pain in elbow; the bruise have been flamed; Feeling hot; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 75-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number: EN6207) at the age of 75-years-old, via an unspecified route of administration in right arm on 13Mar2021 at single dose for COVID-19 immunization.

The patient received the vaccine on 13Mar2021 in the afternoon and within 24 to 30 hours, the next day (14Mar2021), her right arm, where the vaccine was administered turned all red and swollen and her elbow also hurt. She went to the emergency room because she felt it was a reaction to the vaccine. They told her that it was a bacterial skin infection, an adverse effect of an initial encounter to the vaccine, arm swelling and bursitis caused by that, muscle pain and join pain in elbow and then she guessed it was like cellulitis. They gave her ROCEPHIN at the emergency room and then a couple days later, it wasn't getting any better and it was all the way down to her wrist. She went to immediate care center and received an antibiotic. She was also given 2 more prescription of antibiotics and told that it had to be administered with the antibiotics to get rid of the reactions. It has finally pretty much cleared up with the antibiotics if they hadn't put her in an immediate care and put her on intravenous medications. They were really concerned because it was going to get into sepsis or something. At first, the patient thought that it was just inflamed, then it was skin infection and then adverse effect from the initial encounter of the vaccine. She had been on the antibiotics for 10 days when it finally cleared, but the elbow was still sore and it hurts a lot, but the fluid was drained by an orthopedic doctor. She was given 2 different types of antibiotics plus a shot into her buttocks. It's a little sore because she was informed that "the bruise have been flamed" on Mar2021. When she went to emergency, first they give her 1 gm ROCEPHIN and then switched antibiotic to DURICEF and to BACTRIM DS, and advised to continue monitoring and if swelling and redness was progressive or worse, then go to emergency room again. She went to emergency room on 16Mar2021, the medicine given was doxycycline and then she was seen by an orthopedic physician today where the fluid was drained from her elbow but swelling and redness was progressively getting worst and she was feeling hot on Mar2021. So, she went to the immediate care. Overall, consistent to cellulitis of right upper arm strongly includes to go to the ER but the patient had something else and had to go right then. And then, she was given 1 gm ROCEPHIN and then switched to DURACEF and BACTRIM. She came back to the ER on the same day. It was kind of 2 things, like the redness and skin infection which currently was cellulitis. Doxycycline was what they told her to get, that's what they gave her at the emergency room, doxycycline hyclate. And then said to follow-up with her primary care which she did and that was on 17Mar2021. She looked at it and then they told her to see an orthopedic surgeon and she saw him on the 18Mar2021. They just thought that the antibiotics, that's why he gave her 2 different prescriptions plus the shot in the buttocks because he said if this will not be cured with the antibiotics, she'll end up in a hospital. And then it was raft and it took her 10 days to recover. And he marked little black dots to show where wasn't and if it goes beyond that then call us because it was spreading. The outcome of the events bruise and feeling hot was unknown, not recovered for joint pain, and recovered on 24Mar2021 for all other events. The events required emergency room visit/ physician office visit.

Fever; Little bit of chills; Headache; get a lump under her arm of the site where the shot was given/a lymph node was down more there than it was other; Feeling of warm myself; arm started getting sore; Here she was telling me twice that I have got Moderna, but it's written on card here that I got a Pfizer; This is a spontaneous report received from a contactable consumer reporting for self.

Medical history included high blood pressure and underactive thyroid. Concomitant medications included celecoxib (CELEBREX) and acetylsalicylic acid (BABY ASPIRIN). The patient received her first dose of Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine on 06Mar2021. At the vaccination center she was told she received Moderna's COVID-19 vaccine, the Lot number documented on the vaccination card is EN6203, she would like to confirm if this Lot number belongs to a Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine. Her next dose was scheduled for April 5, 2021. As later confirmed that the vaccination card contains incorrect information, this Lot number belongs to a Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, instead of Moderna's vaccine (as documented). Agent mentioned the patient "had some side effects from the vaccine". The patient explained that the vaccination center was administering COVID-19 vaccines from Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech, the documentation error may have repeated in other patients. Patient stated that "when I talked to the girl am I getting a Moderna and my son heard her say yes, and I said - Okay. Now that day they are doing second shot on Moderna and the first shots on the Pfizer. Here she was telling me twice that I have got Moderna, but it's written on card here that I got a Pfizer. She actually put me on Moderna time frame not on Pfizer. I should have had the shot if I was on Pfizer. I think she was thinking that it was Moderna shot and that my time laps would, the question is, I am out 30 some days". The patient stated she had some side effects after her shot. She did have some fever, the little bit of chills, the headache. She did get a lump under her arm of the site where the shot was given. And that's fine, she knew that a lymph node was down more there than it was other. She had already talked to her doctor and was told that when she was going next Monday to get the other shot, just shoot the other arm. So, that's rectified. Patient stated probably right after, her arm about 4-5 days, after, maybe up to a week, she got a feeling of warm herself, but after 3 to 4 days her arm started getting sore, she noticed the lump coming under her left arm where she (incomplete sentence). Treatment included patient had hot water on it. She was not doing much anymore. She was taking Tylenol for probably a week or week and half between here, and that probably did help. The outcome of events was unknown. No follow-up attempts needed. No further information expected.

Within 10 minutes, I started having my angioedema symptoms. My internal symptoms started swelling internally with my organs. I got the genital and the GI and it started with a terrific headache and it affected my vision (all within 15 minutes). My blood pressure went up to 184 (usual is 130) at that time. Paramedic came over and my EpiPen had expired. I asked if he could give me a shot. Said no, he'd have to take me to hospital and I didn't want to go. He gave me 50 mg of Benadryl and that helped clear my eyesight. I drove to a friend's house who took me to the doctor's office. I got on prednisone to stop inflammation. Did a week and I couldn't do it anymore. Gave me biologic Xolair injection for urticaria, my rash is internal. I got better within an hour of injection. (Which was one week post vaccination). 2nd vaccine was fatigue but no symptoms from my chronic disease.
