headache; she had a mild soreness in her left arm after getting the COVID-19 Vaccine; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable pharmacist (patient) via a Pfizer-sponsored program Pfizer First Connect. This pharmacist reported similar events for two patients. This is the first of two reports. A 76-year-old female patient received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE; Lot Number: EL1283) via an unspecified route of administration on 19Jan2021 10:30 AM at single dose on left arm for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain in jaw and headache. Concomitant medication included Tylenol for temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain in her jaw. The patient (retired pharmacist) stated that she and her husband got the COVID shot on Tuesday (19Jan2021) and prior to getting the vaccine, she was suffering temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain in her jaw and took Tylenol that morning. Patient just came back from urgent care and was prescribed a dose pack of prednisone to take for 5 days for the TMJ and she is concerned about taking it because she knows it can suppress the immune system and she does not want to make the vaccine less effective. She was trying to figure out if she should just tough it out and not take the steroid. She and her husband, who was on warfarin, had a mild headache after the first shot but he has sinus issues and she had the TMJ, they were not sure if the headaches were from those things or the vaccine. Patient asked if she can take Tylenol since she found out that that may not have been a good idea. She was advised to take Prednisone and she was asking if she can take it or will it affect the efficacy of the vaccine. She stated not knowing that taking Tylenol can effect the efficacy of the COVID-19 Vaccine, she had taken Tylenol before she received her COVID-19 Vaccine on 19Jan2021 (Tuesday). Patient said her TMJ jaw pain was still a problem after she received her COVID-19 Vaccine, so she had gone to her doctor, and her doctor prescribed Prednisone, a corticosteroid. She said she was not going to take the Prednisone because she does not want the Prednisone to cause an issue with the efficacy of the COVID-19 Vaccine. Patient said she then read that studies performed on children said that children that took Tylenol did not get as good of an immune response from the COVID-19 Vaccine. Patient said since she already took a dose of Tylenol for her TMJ jaw pain before receiving her first COVID-19 Vaccine dose, she was afraid to take any further Tylenol. Patient clarified that the Tylenol she took was the generic Equate brand, 500mg. She said she took 2 Equate brand generic Tylenol 500mg for jaw pain on Tuesday morning (19Jan2021) prior to getting her first COVID-19 Vaccine. She said she had disposed of Equate brand generic Tylenol bottle and cannot provide the UPC, Lot and Expiration Date. Reported that both her and her husband did have a headache all day long after receiving the COVID-19 Vaccine. She said her husband believes his headache was from the COVID-19 Vaccine. She said she was not sure if her headache was from the COVID-19 Vaccine or from her TMJ jaw pain. She said when she has TMJ jaw pain, she usually has a headache accompanying the TMJ jaw pain. Also reported that she always gets her vaccines in her left arm. Patient was surprised she and her husband did not have anything more than a headache after receiving the COVID-19 Vaccine. She said when she had the Shingles Vaccine, she could not lay on her left side for a week because her arm was so sore for 2 days, and when she had the flu shot she could not get out of bed for a day. Patient clarified she got her first dose of the Shingrix Shingles Vaccine in Nov2020, and does not plan to go and get her second Shingrix dose until the summer of 2021. Patient stated that she does not want the second dose of the Shingrix Vaccine interfering with the COVID-19 Vaccine. The patient had headache on 19Jan2021, reported as mild. Patient also had a mild soreness in her left arm after getting the COVID-19 Vaccine on 19Jan2021, and the left arm soreness was gone in less than 24 hours. Patient further clarified that she had a headache before getting the COVID-19 Vaccine. She said her TMJ jaw pain acts up if she eats. She said when she has TMJ jaw pain, she gets an excruciating headache. She said she has no headache pain at all right no. Patient expected to have kind of a worse reaction to the COVID-19 Vaccine based on what other people have been saying. The events were assessed as non-serious. Outcome of the event headache and mild soreness in her left arm was recovered in Jan2021. Patient does not think her headache pain was related to the COVID-19 Vaccine.; Sender's Comments: Based on the time association and drug's safety profile, the possible contribution of suspect vaccine BNT162B2 to the event headache cannot be totally excluded. The underlying temporomandibular joint and headache may be cofounders.,Linked Report(s) : US-PFIZER INC-2021082288 same drug/reporter, similar events, different patient

It was reported that after getting the first dose of the vaccine the patient noticed she had pustules across her back on an unspecified date. The patient stated she "got this rash from the tips of fingers, even the palm of my hands and it starts right under the neck and goes across my breast, on my belly, on my back and both arms and is now halfway down my shin bone." On an unspecified date in Jan2021, she noticed this the afternoon of her vaccine around 7:00 when she saw two splotches on her stomach and it kept spreading. Sunday morning she went to Quick Care and yesterday went to her regular doctor. Her doctor gave her prednisone to take 10 mg 4 times a day, and hydroxyzine 10 mg for itching. In her throat she was getting hoarse on an unspecified date and was keeping a water bottle on her desk to keep hydrated. She stated she read on (website) that a rash can be a symptom of the vaccine. The caller asked, "if the pustules burst will this cause anyone to get Covid 19? Is this a possible side effect of the vaccine? How long will this last? Is it okay to get my second shot with this reaction? Is there anything I should be taking to make it go away?" It was further reported that patient received paperwork to call if there was any type of reaction. The patient mentioned she has a rash that was all over her body on 28Jan2021. It was on the top of her hands, in the palm of her hands, on her arms, back, under her breast, on her chest, on her stomach, on her bottom end, it was going down her legs and to her knees at this point. The patient initially stated she noticed the rash on Friday (29Jan2021), she later stated it was Thursday 28Jan2021 when the rash first started. She stated she first noticed splotches on her belly on her right side, right below her waist on an unspecified date in Jan2021. At first when looking at it she did not think too much about it. Later in the call she further clarified and stated it was possible she noticed these splotches the same day in the evening on the day she got the vaccine. She was not sure. If it was not the same day it was the next day. Friday (29Jan2021), she started to get as initially stated bumps, but later clarified rash under skin and it really proceeded from there. Additionally, it was reported that the rash continued to spread throughout her whole body. It was down to her shin now. Her whole upper body was horrible. She has some across her back. There are pustules on them like a pimple. It was like water in it ready to break. Sunday she went to a (clinic name) to get it looked at. She went Sunday 31Jan2021. She was given an intravenous (IV) and three needles were placed in it. She knows one was a steroid, she does not know what the other two were for, but she thinks one was probably for itching. The patient also confirmed she also experienced itching with the rash on 28Jan2021. It started the same day she noticed the rash. The patient stated it was like a full blown case now. The itching was with the rash on 28Jan2021. The itching and rash has continued to go down her body. It was on her buttocks now. It was hard to sit. It was in private up between her legs and stuff. Her body was almost 80 % full and covered with this stuff. She saw her regular doctor yesterday. The doctor at (clinic name) thought this reaction may have been an allergic reaction to a Sulfa drug she was taking for a bladder infection coincidentally at the same time, but she does not believe this was the case. Stated she had taken that sulfa drug before previously. She does not have the name of the drug to provide of the sulfa drug. She does not have it with her. No blood work was done. She was just looked at. They saw what was going on. The patient also mentioned she went on the internet to do research. She saw on Pfizer page three pictures that resembled what she had going on. It was also reported that the two splotches on right hand side started about 7'clock in the evening. At first did not think anything of it. Thought it was possibly a bug bite at first. Additionally, it was reported that patient went to see a doctor. She was already going to the doctor for a bone density scan and she showed the doctor what was going on at the same time. Her primary doctor thought this was due to the COVID 19 Vaccine. At end of call, patient questioned "if the pustules across upper back and behind neck, will that cause anyone to get COVID 19? Side effect?" The patient had no emergency visit. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of itching with the rash, rash that is all over her body, and two splotches on right hand side. The patient had not yet recovered from rash that is all over her body while outcome of the events pustules, itching with the rash, in her throat she is getting hoarse, and "splotches on her belly on her right side, right below her waist /Two splotches on right hand side" was unknown.

There were no concomitant medications. The patient had the 1st dose of the PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE and on 02Mar2021, she had sore on the injection site, experienced excess saliva production. On 05Mar2021, she experienced chills, feeling of heart attack: left arm pain, jaw pain, facial pain. She is worried to take the 2nd shot as she might have more symptoms on the 2nd dose. On an unspecified date, the patient had lower back, hips, knees, neck pain, eye socket hurts when rolling her eyes, sore stomach, and exhausted. It was also reported as follows: on 02Mar2021 after she got home from being administered the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine she had quite a bit of saliva in her mouth, it filled up quite a lot; and a bit of a sore arm for a couple of days but that was about it at that point. On Friday, 05Mar2021 she started getting chills and aches; and felt like she was having a heart attack: her left arm hurt and her left side of face hurt down in her jaw. She was afraid and considered going to the hospital but thought she was going to wait it out see what it is and it passed. She then once again got a lot of saliva in her mouth again. Over the next few days she developed aches that were primarily located in her joint replacements, it seemed like the aches attacked those areas of joint replacements in her hips, knees and where she had a neck fracture. She had a lot of pain and a lot of chills. She was never bedridden, but would lay down because she was exhausted. Her back hurt a tremendous amount. Another thing that happened is her eyes, when she would go to move her eyes left or right or up or down it seemed like her eye sockets just hurt to move her eyes; she did not have a headache; this whole indentation there with her eyes hurt to move them from one side to another. She also had a very sore, uncomfortable stomach; it was not an upset stomach; just seemed very sore, uncomfortable. At first that first part of 05Mar2021 she seemed a bit congested. She is very worried about second dose of Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine because of the first dose creating all of these difficulties. She does not know what she should be doing. She is scheduled to get her second dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine on 24Mar2021 because she is leaving by plane on 29Mar2021. That only gives her like 4-5 days before she leaves and she knows that the other symptoms after the first dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine did not start until 3 days later. She is concerned about that, because she is flying to take care of her sister; she is worried about the second dose because she does not like what she experienced with the first dose because she heard that the second dose will be terrible; she is worried about leaving and experiencing those horrible things. She reported that there are no tests/investigations relative to this report to provide. The only thing recently done was having X-rays of her neck on 24Feb2021 because of her neck issues with the fractured neck she had in 2011. Outcome of the events was unknown.

She had welts and little red spots all over her back a couple of hours after the second dose of vaccine. She got rubbed down with alcohol and cortisone cream that night. Today, the back welts went away but the red spots are still there. After checking her again around 8:30 p.m. because she complained of her left hand itching, I noticed more welts up her left arms and more came back on her middle and upper back. She was then rubbed down again and given an ibupropean. I am unsure of this side effect because it was not mentioned on any cdc website, so therefore I will be calling her physician to do a checkup. If there is any other information we need to know on how to treat the outbreaks please send email.

A 76-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection, lot number: EL9266, expiration date: Mar2021), via an unspecified route of administration in left arm on 23Feb2021 as single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Patient's medical history included stomach problem and bleeding problems in her stomach. There were no concomitant medications. The patient said that absolutely everything was okay until she went to get the shot, and was even okay the evening of the shot, then it went down hill from there. She said nothing she has that is related to the pain in her arm, or that she feels she should provide. She did not had any other recent vaccinations or started any new medications. The patient stated that the injection area was a little sore and the area became bigger and bigger by Wednesday (24Feb2021). She woke up on Thursday (25Feb2021) and her elbow and shoulder was in pain, described as a dull pain. The patient stated she has a stomach problem where she can't take medicine. She started treating her pain with aspirin cream with Lidocaine. She said that its kind of worked, it didn't take it away, but more manageable. Now it's been 6 days later (01Mar2021), it was reported a deep deep pain in the point she can't sleep at night. She can't position her arm in a way that is not painful. It was getting unbearable. It transferred from shoulder to her neck on Friday (26Feb2021). It got worse Thursday evening and has been the same since. Patient said, "I am not going to get the second shot if this pain does not go away or if I am going to experience this again." The patient was calling about a possible side effect and was wondering if anyone else had it and does it go away. She was suffering, she wanted to know if the pain she is in, that she is still experiencing will go away. She said that she had a deep muscle ache pain to the point she can't sleep at night. Patient stated that her pain began as soreness at injection site that started Wednesday and then it just got worse and worse and became deeper and deeper just between her shoulder and elbow, a deep constant achy pain. During the day when she is using her arm she can kind of forget the pain, but at night there was no comfortable position she can put her arm in without pain, so she has not been sleeping the last 3-4 nights, she can't sleep, she was miserable. She said she would rather get COVID than this, it was ridiculous. As she has bleeding problems in her stomach, she can't take anything to treat the pain, so she was trying to use lidocaine on her arm, which did at first give some relief but no longer works. She said that the only number listed on the bottle was next to "EXP date, LOT: 19C506, EXP: Mar2021 (as reported)." The outcome of the events was not recovered.

She got the vaccine, when she came home she started feeling the fatigue that she felt after the 1st vaccine. She then started feeling very cold, laid down and watched TV. She then had chills all night and did not sleep well due to that. When she got up on Tuesday the chills were gone but had a slight headache off and on throughout the day, her temp was 97.2. Throughout the day she would get warm spurts/hot flashes, as well as fatigue. She did sleep that night, and when she got up yesterday morning still had the hot flashes and it was 94.2, and took it twice due to it being so low. She was like that with fatigue and not able to sit up. She went to bed, took some Tylenol and rested. The heat feeling it started going away. Around dinner time she felt more like herself, the headache was gone and her temp was 97. She was doing pretty good, and the last thing she had was she felt on her cheeks and noticed a rash on her face, like a prickly heat type rash. Before she went to bed she put Neosporin on it, and when she got up this morning it was almost gone but still has a tiny few bumps. The arm itself did not hurt at all. Feels that it is a stressful situation as to where to get the vaccine and having to travel to get it as it's not available in locations closer to their homes. The people at the pharmacy were great, but had to travel and if it wasn't for her daughter she would probably not have her shot.

A 76-year-old female patient received bnt162b2 (BNT162B2 reported as PFIZER COVID-19 VACCINE), dose 1 intramuscularly administered in the right deltoid on 30Mar2021 10:00 (Lot number: GR8732 or 6R8732 [as reported]; Expiration Date: 31Jul2021) as a single dose for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included blood pressure/hypertension; had breast cancer twice with the last time was in 2010 to unknown date which was 23 years later than the first time she had it (1987). She had infiltrating ductal cancer, stage one, that was HER-2 positive. She states that this is the most malignant breast cancer. She had to have extensive chemotherapy and also took Herceptin every 3 weeks for a year. The overriding symptom from her cancer was extreme fatigue; has been in chronic fatigue syndrome and in bed for 7 years, she was getting over chemo and she can barely walk. She has trouble walking long distances; had a mastectomy from 2010 to an unknown date without lymph node dissection; had a central node dissection; took a wheelchair to the hospital whenever she received the first dose of the covid vaccine; ongoing anxiety, depression and nervousness which is not new to her. She has had this on and off for the past year; and antihistamine that raises her blood pressure dangerously, it does not matter which kind of antihistamine whether it is Benadryl or over the counter. The only antihistamine that does not raise her blood pressure was a children's allergy medication. She took half of a children's dose. It did not raise her blood pressure, but it did not stop her itching. Family history included her mother's sister and she are very sensitive to medications. She has the same type of problems. As her mother's sister has aged, her problems have gotten better. As caller gets older, her problems are getting worse. Concomitant medication included carvedilol taken for blood pressure on unknown therapy dates. The patient previously took dupilumab (DUPIXENT) for skin conditions that having itching which she had side effects (Lot number: 0LU23A; Expiration date: Feb2023). Dupixent is a medication used for skin conditions that having itching, not cirrhosis, she cannot remember the name of the skin condition. Her skin started itching around Jun2020 or Jul2020. She saw eight different dermatologists. She found a doctor who was an itch specialist. Dupixent is the only thing that is going to work for her because antihistamines raise her blood pressure dangerously; and one time her doctor made a mistake, he ordered her hydroxyzine 25mg PO (Per oral). The doctor did not look on her chart to see her allergy list. She cut the pill in half and took half a dose. By the time she realized what she took, she was having so much itching. She woke up and felt like her head was going to explode and her blood pressure was 220/112. She took three tablets of her antihypertensive medication. She taken carvedilol 3.125mg. She did not even bother going to the hospital because by the time they would have saw her, and treated her, she could have had a stroke. The hospital is slow to treat people. Because she is a nurse practitioner, she knew that 3 tablets would be the correct dose for how high (Apr2021) her blood pressure was. She also previously took Benadryl but that raises her blood pressure dangerously. The patient reported that she received her first dose of the covid vaccine on 30Mar2021 and she had many side effects. She reported that the most predominant symptom is total exhaustion. For the first seven days after receiving the first dose of the covid vaccine, she was in bed for seven days nonstop. She placed a large grocery shopping order. She was able to get up and use the bathroom and cook small meals. She had someone come in to help her with the dishes, and to clean up the house. She talked to her internist of 20 years, and he told her to take the vaccine. Within five minutes, she started getting side effects. She inquired if it was safe to take the second dose of the covid vaccine. She has been so fatigued that she has been in bed for a 3 weeks-time frame and then her Blood pressure went up, it was 200 something, like 223/103. She went to the ER, and the ER said her blood pressure was not bad (Apr2021), they put her in the waiting room, and because she waited so long, she just got up and left the ER. Since she is so tired and her Blood pressure is high, she has made an appointment with the doctor. She added that the second week after receiving the first dose of the covid vaccine, she was able to get up every other day and go somewhere but the next day after she went somewhere, she was in bed all day and did not have complete energy (2021). She added that her refrigerator was going out, so someone drove her to department store 30 minutes away. She walked from the car, to the refrigerator section in department store, walked into the mall to get ice cream and then walked back to the car. By the time she got home, she immediately got back in her bed because she was so worn out. That was on Saturday. She was in bed all day yesterday. This morning, she feels better than yesterday. She thought about going to the store yesterday, but she knew she did not have the energy to go. Someone is coming later today to help her, and they will have to go to the store for her since she does not have any family nearby. She mentioned that the total exhaustion began on 31Mar2021. She took a wheelchair to the hospital whenever she received the first dose of the covid vaccine. She has trouble walking long distances. She called the hospital before she went, and the hospital did not have any wheelchairs she could use. The hospital cleared everything out of the way so they could fit the most patients as possible in the building. She had trouble walking the day that she received her first dose of the covid vaccine. Someone wheeled her in and out using her own wheelchair. She cannot go to the grocery store. Using a wheelchair is the only way she could have in and out. She could walk from her wheelchair into the examination room, and then after she went right back into her wheelchair. She is glad that she called because she does not know what she would have done without a wheelchair. It is hard for her to go on, sometimes she just feels like crying. Her trouble walking does not feel 100 percent, but it has gotten better. She is anxious, depressed and nervous also. Before her breast cancer, she had chronic fatigue. She could volunteer at a clinic for a few hours a week. She had radiation, and that caused exacerbation of her chronic fatigue. Her doctor told her that for some people, chemotherapy will make chronic fatigue better and that chemotherapy could help her chronic fatigue. Before she got chronic fatigue syndrome, she had a lot of energy. She used to work in an ICU that had 15 patients, with ambulatory patients on the outside. She worked six days a week then she transferred to a hospital where she took care of patients after they had open heart surgery. She used to be a very high energy person. Her exhaustion has gotten better, because she can get up every other day and leave the house. She cannot stop doing life. It is difficult for her that she cannot go to the grocery store. After seven days, she could go out every other day. Whenever she went to a certain company, she almost fell. Her legs got weak and she lost coordination on Tuesday (06Apr2021). Since then, it has happened a little bit here and there. It is almost like she is not sure when it will happen. In an instance, she can be working in the house, and her left or right toe will get stuck. This happens to her occasionally after chemotherapy. She noticed that her blood pressure raised after receiving the first dose of the covid vaccine (Apr2021) and she takes medication (small dose of carvedilol) for hypertension. She takes her blood pressure medication every other day. Out of the past four days, her blood pressure has been elevated twice (Apr2021). If her blood pressure is elevated more than normal, her doctor prescribed for her to take an extra dose. Her blood pressure has not been elevated dramatically. She did take an extra dose of carvedilol because her blood pressure was within the scope of her blood pressure expertise. She went to the ER and the ER said her blood pressure was not bad (Apr2021), they put her in the waiting room and because she waited so long she just got up and left the ER. Since she is so tired and her Blood pressure is high, she has made an appointment with the doctor. She also stated that her blood pressure went up yesterday last night (18Apr2021), not right after getting the first dose. Last night at 6:00 PM, she took a nap and after she woke up took her blood pressure, she didn't feel anything in specific, she always takes her blood Pressure pill twice a day anyway. When she checked her pressure, it was 223/120 (Apr2021) and immediately took 2 Carvedilol 3.125mg and went to the ER, by the time she got there it was down significantly (Apr2021), but she is anxious and sat there and waited. They said they were going to do some blood work and an EKG but they left her there, so she decided to take a company home. Her Blood pressure has been up, she then went to sleep and after (Apr2021), it was 189/105, 183/105, and 165/95, she is a nervous wreck. She was ill for a long time, she had cancer twice, now she lives alone, she has been alone for all these weeks, her friends are here and there and come over. The Last 3 weeks she has been alone. She hired someone, but it was expensive. Now she feels hysterical (2021), after she saw her blood pressure, last night she was crying, and called the neighbor and they drove her right to the hospital then she was waiting in the ER for so long. She got her first shot on 30Mar2021 and she couldn't do anything in bed for 7 days, she is supposed to get the second shot tomorrow (20Apr2021) but doesn't want to be in bed again like that. She is anxious, depressed and nervous that began on 03Apr2021. During the week, she is distracted by the market. She has not been able to trade, because she does not trust her judgment right now. She did buy one this morning. Anxiety, depression and nervousness is not new to her which she has had this on and off for the past year. She has a lot going on. She needed to sell her two-story house and move to a one-story house that is easily assessable to healthcare and meals. She thinks this is disabling in face that she does not feel strong enough to make a decision. She cannot make a decision and she does not feel good enough too. Her anxiety, depression and nervousness was exacerbated by her terrible fatigue. She is experiencing awful symptoms. She went to the grocery store, and the stumbled and went into a company. She had to carry her milk and other items in slowly, and little by little. She thought this is awful, and she got into bed. She could not do anything. She mentioned that her illness is too much (2021). She was crying and she lives alone. The patient mentioned that the pain at the injection site began four hours after receiving the first dose of the covid vaccine. She received the vaccine at 10:00 AM then started getting really bad pain about 6:00 PM and then about 10:00PM or 11:00PM, it started to get unbearable. By 12:00AM (31Mar2021), the pain was so bad that she could not sleep because of the pain. She was in agony. She took took Tylenol and it did not touch her pain, but her pain got worse and worse, so she took three Tylenol tablets then they worked. She her friend and asked him to come over since she is afraid to take narcotics. She just laid there in bed and spent all night in agony. She tried a thing she put in the freezer and tried heat. She does not remember if either of those worked. The pain resolved about 2 days after. The patient declined safety report, saying that she is stressed and anxious (2021), she just wants to be transferred for her question. The reporter considered the events fatigue aggravated serious and 'anxiety, depression and nervousness was exacerbated by her terrible fatigue' with seriousness criterion of disability while the events blood pressure raised lower extremities weakness of and coordination impaired as medically significant. The outcome of the events fatigue aggravated recovering; as for the events blood pressure raised, 'anxiety, depression and nervousness was exacerbated by her terrible fatigue', lower extremities weakness of and coordination impaired were not recovered; while the event vaccination site pain was recovered on 01Apr2021 (reported as 2 days after).

March 10, 2021 I received my second dose of the Pfizer vaccine and the following day I experienced the predicted side effects of fever, chills, headache, fatigue and lack of appetite, which were all mild and I took Tylenol for the fever. The following day I was fine. After approximately two weeks I noticed there were subtle and unusual changes regarding my appetite, energy level an itchy rash on my back and a runny nose. I didn?t pay much attention to any of these as they weren?t debilitating symptoms, but very unique for me. Then I realized I needed to pay more attention to these symptoms as they were getting more significant, except for the fact I didn?t have a fever. Also my ears felt they were blocked. I thought perhaps because of the feeling of blocked ears I may be getting a sinus infection although I haven?t had one in years. I called the doctor?s office on April 5th and I was told to go to the Urgent Care, which I did. I was examined and given a prescription for a nasal spray, antihistamine and an antibiotic in case symptoms became more severe. It was also suggested that I may want to have a Covid test. I?m not used to taking any medications except for Trazodone, and was reluctant to take what was prescribed because if it was indeed a sinus infection it wasn?t in line with any I?d had years ago. I used the nasal spray for a few days and also the antihistamine. The headache got worse, and would move from one area of my head to another and also down the side of my face and neck. Tylenol didn?t help and Ibuprofen only helped now and again. The headache had a mind of its own. Warm compresses did help. I was in contact through the portal for recommendations from the medical staff.

The patient stated she can't get through to the Health Department, and she has a card to say to have the second dose on 23Jan2020, but she can't get through. States thanks so much, this is a miracle event and in a year's time, even if she did get a rash. The rash is a little more pronounced, but she has been rubbing it trying to not scratch, but it doesn't seem to be spreading any at all. States she is healthy. Seeking more information about getting the second dose after experiencing a rash. The outcome of the event was unknown.

She had shingles several years ago, this was acting like that, and it looked like one of the side effects listed is lymphadenopathy, which she looked up information about that, but she doesn't know what it was, she doesn't know what else to blame it on. Patient hasn't seen her doctor yet for hives, and has not treated the hives. She got the OK from the nurse who said she didn't see a reason for her not to get the vaccine since she was coming off chemo several months prior. Patient was considered to be in remission right now, and she has an appointment next week with her oncologist for follow up. Outcome of the events was unknown.

allergic response to isopropyl alcohol in second dose of COVID vaccine; 1st dose last 22Jan2021 - 2nd dose was on 08Feb2021; 1st dose last 22Jan2021 - 2nd dose was on 08Feb2021; doesn't feel good; one heck of a temperature; By doing what she did, if that negated the COVID vaccine/ That's what she was afraid of; redness and swelling in her right arm; redness and swelling in her right arm; feeling hot all over the body; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer. A 77-years-old female patient received second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 MRNA VACCINE, Solution for injection, lot number and expiry date not reported) via an unspecified route of administration on 08Feb2021 at a single dose for covid-19 immunisation. The patient's medical history included weakened immune system because of the alcohol allergy (started while 19), and aches and pains. Concomitant medications were not reported. The patient received the first dose of bnt162b2 (expiry date May2021) for COVID-19 immunisation at the age of 77 years old last 22Jan2021 administered on the upper righthand arm later clarified as upper right arm; and she was still going through that systemic reaction when she had her first COVID vaccine. The patient asked on regarding how effective the vaccine was related to receiving steroid therapy. Patient was advised by doctor to go to urgent care to have a covid test to see if she and husband were exposed to covid before the vaccines kicked in. Patient stated that on an unspecified date in 2021, she still didn't feel well and was running one heck of a temperature (increased). Patient reported she had a severe allergic reaction to the vaccine. She filled out the forms. Patient felt like she should be put in the hospital. She has a horrific allergy to alcohol. Each time she receives an injection it gets worse. She knew when she received the second dose that the third ingredient was alcohol. She thought about was worse, the virus or the reaction. Within a minute of taking the vaccine she had a reaction. She reported it at the site and was watched for a half hour. Her question was "because she took prednisone immediately after getting the vaccine does that negate the shot?" She was not asked the name of the steroid that she took. She was taking prednisone 20mg, 2 tablets as soon as she gets a shot then 2 daily Monday-Friday. It was still going through her system and it was reeking havoc on her. If she goes to the hospital they will give her Benadryl and monitor her. Patient stated that on 08Feb2021, she had an allergic response to isopropyl alcohol in second dose of COVID vaccine. Patient stated that she had both COVID shots and had adverse reactions and took some medicine for the adverse reaction and now the patient was concerned it might mess with the shot, it might not work for her as it should. She knew that this was going to be a long process and she knew her allergies were rare, but they were there. She is allergic to isopropyl alcohol, even if it is in shampoos or liquid soaps, she gets reactions. She had her first COVID vaccine and she had her own hospital cleanser that she has with her at all times and she used it which was not a problem. For her second COVID vaccine, the nurse was naming the 3 ingredients that were in the COVID vaccine and asked if she was allergic to any. She said this last shot had alcohol in it, she sat with her husband next to her, and thought which was worse: getting COVID, the cases in the city are high, or having a reaction to the alcohol. She chose the latter. When it went into her arm she immediately knew she was getting a reaction. She had steroids with her just in case this happened. Each time the reaction happens, it gets worse. She said she sat for half an hour and has been on steroids until last Friday. She was supposed to be on them for days. On Friday, she was wondering if taking the steroids negated the effectiveness of the COVID vaccine and that's why she called in. She knew that this was rare and it was not something that the company going to say that the company know how to fix it. Patient worked in the health unit of a university as a hiring and firing people person. So, she was around it, but she was not a doctor or a nurse. So, she guessed the answer was no. Last week she received her second COVID vaccine. She said, she has got to get rid of 5 pounds, but it's harder to do that when you're older. She experienced the reaction from the isopropyl alcohol within her second dose of the COVID vaccine last week, 08Feb2021. She said she was still going through it and will for a while. When asked for the outcome, she said she couldn't answer that honestly. She said she didn't feel good (2021). Period. She knew that when she goes through this it takes, each time, an extra 4 to 5 days to get over it. When she got up this morning, she didn't feel good. Her husband asked if she wanted to go sailing, and she said not in 30 degree weather, but for her to say no to sailing, her husband knew she didn't feel well. She couldn't say worse, but she can say she didn't know how long it was going to be, which was scaring her. By doing what she did, if that negated the COVID vaccine, then lets go from there. That's what she was afraid of. When she tells people she is allergic to alcohol, and when it happens, they look at her like "nobody is allergic to alcohol." She is 77 and has the aches and pains of a 77 year old, which she hates. But she doesn't think there are related medical conditions to what she experienced. This (allergy to alcohol) started when she was 19 and it has gotten progressively worse. So she tries to be careful. She says this was her, not dumb, but her decision that she made and now she is concerned. She said no to any tests done. She had the immediate reaction and she knew what to do. Patient further reported that she has allergy to alcohol and had an adverse reaction after the 2nd shot due to alcohol swab and on an unspecified date in 2021, she experienced redness and swelling in her right arm and feeling hot all over the body. Patient asked if her doctor will prescribe Benadryl to manage my allergy will it affect the effectiveness of the PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of the event "allergic response to isopropyl alcohol in second dose of COVID vaccine". The patient did not recover from the event "allergic response to isopropyl alcohol in second dose of COVID vaccine". The outcome of the other events reported was unknown.

Medical history included ongoing high blood pressure, high cholesterol and it runs in her family (She has tried all the different "statin" medications and she couldn't tolerate any of them. Her cardiologist told her there was an injection she could take for her cholesterol every two weeks and it was supposed to be like a "liquid plumber" for your veins. She is so sensitive to medications including all these "statin" medications, there is no way she can take the bi-weekly injection. It might have a much more profound negative affect on her. She was so leery of taking medications, even over the counter medications), gastrooesophageal reflux disease (GERD), 4 cardiac stent placements in 2015, blood pressure abnormal, allergies (unspecified), sinus are swollen, neuralgia, cataract surgery (a year and half ago), retina had swelled and sensitivity to heat.

Aspirin give her hives but usually a hive here or there, not real big hives, ilevro for retina swelling and affected her skin on her face (She did have a problem while she was taking the steroid eye drops. They made her feel very unwell. She does not take Prednisone for the same reason. She had tried many different steroid eye drops and so many of them gave her a problem. She ended up taking Ilevro. She had no choice but to take it. The Ilevro affected the skin on her face. Her retinas had to stop swelling. Everything is fine now. She has no glaucoma or macular degeneration. This occurred a year and half ago when she had her cataract surgery). She had given the nurse who gave her the injection a list of all her allergies and sensitivities and the nurse reviewed the list and didn't see anything in the Covid 19 vaccine that would cause the caller harm based on her list of allergies and sensitivities. The caller took a deep breath and prayed while she received the Covid 19 vaccine. After the vaccine she waited at the facility and she was fine and then she left to go home. She ever had an adverse event with any other vaccines she reports she has not been vaccinated with anything since she was a child. She didn't even have the Polio vaccine.

Her stomach wasn't upset but she was aware of it. That slowly passed and she started doing the things she needed to do. She needs to walk because of her heart stents. She had been fine after the Covid 19 vaccine until last night on 10Jun2021 at 21:30 the patient skin on her left leg started to hurt so much that it reminded of her of having a neuralgia. She provides an example of her sometimes feeling a draft and she can develop a neuralgia from the draft for a day or two. That's what her leg felt like initially. As the night wore on, around 22:00, she realized she couldn't even stand clothes on her legs. She wears nightgowns, not pajamas and she had to take her nightgown off her leg. The sensation in her leg started changing, she could feel that she not only had the skin hurting sensation but now she had stinging in certain parts of her leg. She had stinging on the top and behind her knee and it traveled down towards her ankle and up towards her upper thigh. It was bizarre. She thought about it this morning, 11Jun2021, what it felt like. She remembered way back, long ago, and she was not a sun person, but it felt like how a sunburn would feel. The skin on her left leg feels burning. She used Aspercreme on her leg thinking it will help with the pain. She wiped all the Aspercreme off her leg. She could not cover her left leg. Her left leg felt like it needed cold and not heat. She does have a history of sensitivity to heat. She runs her air conditioner, and she had a ceiling fan above her bed. She had her left leg exposed and out of her bed covers to try and get the cold air on her hot leg. Finally, around 23:30, her leg still bothered her, but she was able to go to sleep. She twisted and turned at night but was finally able to put her bed cover back on her leg but lightly. The sensation was still there in her leg. She was so sensitive. On an unspecified date, the patient had two twinges in her arm and then her arm never hurt again. The events did not result in emergency room or Physician Office. She is due for her second Covid 19 vaccine on 15Jun2021.

After the 2nd shot it affected 2 elbows and the neck but no blister (same as the first but the first had the giant blister). I've gone to 2 physicians who didn't know what it was or if it may be an allergic reaction no one had identified it. I thought it was bug bites (I'm allergic to mosquito bites and allergic to insect bites). It was so inflamed for a month I was going crazy. The first doctor gave me: cortisone, steroids, and an anti-inflammatory. 2nd time (after the 2nd dose) another doctor put me on prednisone and Zyrtec. The 3rd person I spoke with thinks it's covid arm. No one can tell me what it is. I saw some photos of what people had. Although I've had it in 3 different spots, under the arm, and elbow, the hand I got the shot on, under my ear (lump) and left elbow. It's on 2 arms, and part of the neck. I've been to a dermatologist and my internal doctor. Thinks it's the reaction to the covid vaccine. It on the right side, neck and right arm (not where the injection site was) giant blister on right arm between elbow and wrist at least 6 inches long and 3 inches wide. On the left side: left elbow and above the elbow. The big blister under my arm where I had my shot, neck and two elbows. The first reaction it happened 10-11 days after the first shot, after the 2nd shot: it came back, but not as a blister (soon after the 2nd shot). No body knows what it is. The problem with the reaction was when it's so inflamed. It feels like I got mosquito bite (like when I get a reaction) I didn't sleep the whole night. She (the doctor) said, I can't tell if it's a bug bite because it's so inflamed. The doctors don't know. I got no results with 2 doctors. They didn't know what to tell me, Maybe an allergist? My asthma has been worse. It's horrible to have this. Thinking I had bed bugs, it's been driving me crazy for a month. I was going to get a new bed. I have pictures; it's on my phone from the first dose. My doctor saw this and they didn't know what it was on my elbows and neck. contact caller if needed". The patient further reported that , "I have been to two doctors for some itchy things that have been happening and I did my own research and I am wondering if it could be either reaction, allergic reaction to the COVID Vaccine. Are you qualified to answer question if I give you symptoms? Well, I just want to tell you it's not just some itchiness, at first sight I thought I had insect bites. It happened in two locations under the right side of my neck which is like a big red blotch that was very itchy at the same time on my right arm where I had the shot there was a blister on the inside of my arm that was probably 6 or 7 inches long and may be 4 inches wide, and then at my elbow, it felt like I had mosquito bite that itched so much my elbow turn red and then my other arm at the elbow turn red and itchy. I went to the dermatologist, they didn't know what the heck it was, so what they did was they gave me antibiotics (captured as Unspecified medication) and it subsided for a while but it did not go away and I was using cortisone cream, steroid cream. And then after the second shot, now this reaction, the first time was not right after the vaccination it was probably close to 2 weeks after the vaccination and I didn't know what it was and nobody knew what it was. So I was thinking, I had bugs in my house. I was getting all kind of things, I called exterminator. I did not know what to do, so the second time it happen it was not that bad, but then I went to the Doctor and she said well it may be a COVID reaction but I do not understand why it's happening in these isolated spots on your right and your left elbow and one side of my face and my neck, so it was isolated, it was not a rash, it was like if you got an allergic reaction to mosquito bite but so itchy and red and inflamed, it was not funny. So nobody knew what it was, so the second doctor than gave me antihistamine and am I now taking prednisone so I am hoping that what I am doing is the right thing because nobody seems to know what it is. Let me just tell you that while I was waiting for you to answer I filled out the form but I only fill it that because I was confused at the question. I filled it out noting the reaction to the first vaccine but I did not see a spot where it say second vaccine so I just put that in section where you explain certain things, but I would rather get some information for you to make sure that I am doing the right thing what I am taking (hence no further probing was done." Outcome of the events was resolving. No follow-up attempts are needed; information about lot/batch number cannot be obtained.

When I awoke this morning and was getting dressed, I noticed a soreness in the back of my left leg (on the right side of the left leg). I felt a lump, It was about 2-3 inches above the knee. It was what I would describe as a medium-sized lump. I called my doctor to leave a message about my symptoms. My doctor called a few minutes after 11 am and asked me to immediately come in so he could see the lump. He thought I might have a blood clot. This lump was not present late last night because when I put lotion on my legs after my shower, I felt no lump or soreness. I worked out this morning and by 11:00, it seemed to me the lump was not as big as it was when I was getting dressed earlier this morning.

About 10 minutes after receiving the covid vaccine, I developed a red flush on my face which was bright, hot and uncomfortable. The flush appeared nowhere else on my body so I concluded that the vaccine must have interacted with the tretinoin cream I use nightly. That is the only area of my skin on which i apply the cream. When I got home, I applied soothing skin cream but no relief. I then tried aloe, which grows in the area, and the flush/burning abated somewhat. The next day, my face was still flushed but less red. the skin surface was scaly. I am continuing to treat at home. No MDs involved.

My Mom had an an allergic reaction four hours after receiving her first dose of the Pfizer Covid 19 vaccine. Her face swelled up and became red....worse on the right side than the left...her eyes were swollen as well. It lasted this way for four days....it is a little better now, but her face is still a little swollen (seven days after shot). She had a headache on and off and felt tired (which we understand is not an allergic reaction, but rather an immune response). Her family physician suggested taking antihistamines before her second shot. Needless to say, we are apprehensive about what the outcome from the second shot will be like for her.

Now the whole joint is red and a few of the other nodes have turned red.

I had the second Covid (Pfizer) vaccine on February 22. The next day I had chills, fever, aches, nausea and was very weak. After about 30 hours I felt okay again. However, a week and a half later, I noticed red bumps on the back of my neck. The next day, my neck and scalp had red, itchy blotches. Through the next five days, these spread down my body to my ankles until I was covered with the red, very itchy blotches. I did go to Urgent Care on the third day and I was given a 5-day prescription of Prednisone. It did not do much until the third day and then it relieved the itching somewhat for about 6 hours, but then it would start again. After the five days of Prednisone, I took Benedryl for three days until the itch and redness disappeared. I checked the facility web site on types of rashes and my rash fits the description (and the photo) of a drug-related rash, but I have not changed or added any drugs for several years other than the Covid vaccine (I did some research online and found two other people who have had the same problems I have had after the second Covid vaccine. Both of them had the typical reaction of chills, fever, aches and dizziness for about a day after the second shot and then 1-2 weeks later, broke out in a rash. Both reported having the rash start at the neck or head and then spreading down the body throughout one to two weeks before disappearing. There were photos on the facility site of drug-related rashes and they were exactly like what I had. Since the rash was almost certainly covid vaccine related, I am making this report, which my doctor recommended. I had no other changes in diet, medications, environment, etc. ? only the Pfizer vaccine was new to my body.

This nurse (patient) reported that a 78-year-old female patient received second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, batch/lot number: EN6204) at the age of 78-years, via an unspecified route of administration on 04Mar2021 at single dose; first single dose of BNT162B2 (lot: EM9810) on 11Feb2021; both for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included osteoarthritis (having aches and pains) had for 20 years; large sliding hiatal hernia was diagnosed from an EGD six months before, didn't want surgery to fix it; heartburn (last five years); fatty liver, was not from drinking alcohol; generalized anxiety; was tuberculosis positive only because she was exposed years ago.

The patient experienced on 07Mar2021, low grade fever, weakness, chronically dehydrated and cough; on 15Mar2021, rash, acute pain and with deep breaths; on an unspecified date, no desire to eat or drink. Seriousness criteria of these events were reported as disabling. Patient reported that was having major problems, a delayed immune response. Told everybody if this keeps up she was not going to make it. It was wearing her down and she was not going to survive. Occurred after second COVID vaccine. She is active, goes to pool, and does different things. Had vaccine on Thursday and was ok until Sunday. Started Sunday with low grade fever. Kept being low grade and never got to 101, 102, or 103. She didn't take ibuprofen. Usually takes ibuprofen once a day for routine aches and pains. Having weakness. Had no desire to eat or drink. She waited a couple days, but then called her doctor. Doctor's office wouldn't give her an appointment. Stated this wasn't the routine and has been going on for 10 days. This was too much. Two days later, caller's daughter-in-law took her to a place like an ER. A bunch of tests were done. She asked for an IV because she was chronically dehydrated. Weakness was getting to her. After seeing the doctor in the mini surgical ER, she didn't feel any better. She felt the same. Same nausea, weakness, low grade fever, the whole thing. Decided to see her regular doctor. Stated it wasn't her chest. Wanted to be told what was going on. Her regular doctor didn't order any labs. She was given a steroid shot. Thought she was in deep doo-doo. Stated this was not a good sign and she was not going to make it. She woke up yesterday with a rash covering her entire body. She had no clue she had the rash. Never saw the rash. Rash didn't itch, but she still had it. After steroid shot from doctor, she felt a little bit stronger and thought maybe she was going to make it, but then started getting severe pain. Patient was used to having aches and pains that went along with old age and her osteoarthritis. This was severe pain as if she fell and hurt her ribs. It hurts to take deep breaths. Her hip and knee were killing her. It was acute pain, not normal pain. This morning stated she couldn't take it and was going to take ibuprofen, which was not the best for her. She didn't want to eat, but tried to have food in her stomach to take the ibuprofen. She cannot take good deep breaths because of the soreness in her ribs. Thought something in her body was having a delayed immune response and her gut told her it was not good. For low grade fever, did not take ibuprofen, 07Mar2021 was when she started feeling yucky, she wanted to see how she felt and her temperature never really got up, stuck it out, normal temperature for her was 97 or lower, her temperature once in a while would range from 98 to 100.3 or 100.8, she cannot take paracetamol (TYLENOL). For weakness, noticed right away, felt a little better after steroid, had not been out of her door except to the ER. For chronically dehydrated, clarified she had no desire to eat, usually drinks coffee and tea in the morning, but now had no desire, was making herself drink, felt something wasn't right beginning on 07Mar2021, everything went south and got worse, clarified it really wasn't nausea, but no desire to eat or drink, doctor today gave her ondansetron (4mg) which didn't help and made it worse, eating and drinking didn't make her sick, just didn't want it. She had labs done in the ER and was told her labs weren't really that off for her to be that dehydrated. Asked for an IV because she was not drinking what she normally drinks, didn't feel any better after the IV. Rash covering her whole body, but didn't itch. Acute pain and with deep breaths began evening of 15Mar2021, seemed the same today, she just took an ibuprofen a little while ago and was feeling better. Patient also mentioned that realized her body was trying to get monoclonal antibodies and resistance to build up her immunity so that if she ever got infected with COVID virus she could fight it, it was just not working, it was not doing its thing, she was having a delayed immune response, was very worried about that, going on 8-9 days and it was weakening her by the day, didn't think she could take this too much longer. Clarified the COVID Vaccine wasn't working and her body couldn't get its act together. Patient had a slight sore arm after the second dose, never reacted at the injection sight, it was strictly internal, which kind of scares her, something was not right, was having the rash, pain, and severe weakness. Was not expecting any kind of problem. Didn't think too much about the second COVID Vaccine. Stated people were like "oh that second shot." If she didn't get better soon she is not going to do well. Cough was a dry, tight, non-productive cough, lungs were checked yesterday and were clear, felt like all of a sudden she has an urge to cough and nothing comes up. For steroid shot, didn't know if it was dexamethasone (DECADRON) or not, made her feel a little stronger for the day, but then brought on severe aches and pains in her joints and ribs, did not have this until the steroid shot. Patient said that didn't take ibuprofen the first couple days because she didn't want to mess up the immune response starting in her body, asked doctor about immune globulin for her delayed immune response, but doctor shook his head, knew that people with autoimmune are ordered IGE or IGG to test the immune system, asked doctor about this, but he shook his head. Stated she didn't think a CBC with different was performed at the ER, confirmed she was only in the ER after the second dose and was not admitted to the hospital. As of 17Mar2021, she stated then two to three days after that she woke up with rash over her entire body that showed up overnight, that alarmed her even more of course, no itch or nothing, no clue it was there until she washed off and could see it, she had never had a rash before, her arm never got red, but she had a low grade fever, stated now didn't know if good or bad, cough, not productive, some urge to cough, no appetite, not eating or drinking, and increasing weakness, today she couldn't say anything was different about her rash maybe slightly faded but she didn't feel any better, she did get a steroid shot when she went to doctor yesterday and that made her feel less weak. As of 18Mar2021, patient stated that had no reactions for the 1st 2 days following her 2nd dose however she started to feel ill, low grade fever that never went above 100. General feeling of the flu; aches and pain, which she had before but more than usual. She had no urge to eat. Tried to see her doctor when it had been going on for 5 days but they were not concerned. By that Friday, she went to the hospital. They found nothing wrong in her lab tests but she asked them for I.V fluids since she hadn't eaten or drank anything. On Monday, she went back to her initial doctor because she had a rash all over her body, it did not itch and her injection site had no redness. She was given a steroid shot, today she might be feeling a bit better. She lost 10 lbs. She had to stay inside for the past 10 days, except for doctor visits, although she was usually an active person. She would like to know how long the side effects would last.

About 5 days after injection, I had a bout of nausea and diarrhea and noticed severe itching. The stomach issues resolved after a couple of days, but the severe itching continued and is especially bad wherever my clothing comes in contact with my skin. Over the next several weeks, I tried hydrocortisone cream, Benadryl gel, Benadryl tablets, Calamine lotion, corn starch, menthol itch cream, but nothing has helped for very long. I don't have much of a rash...just a bit of raised redness when the itching is particularly bad. I have been miserable with it. I visited my neurologist for Botox injections and asked her about it and she said she thinks I'm having a histamine reaction to the Covid vaccine. The severity of the itching is getting slightly better, but it's now been almost 6 weeks of unrelenting itching. I'm not taking Benadryl 3 times a day.

About 5 or 4 days ago my scalp towards the top of the head hurt while going to sleep on my back. I assume that I probably scratched my head while shampooing my hair. Then next day my right eye started to bother me. I thought I had bumped my eye while trying to clean the discharge I have in the mornings with q-tips. But finally it got worse until it hurt me. So I went to the ophtlamologist today who according to his diagnosis I had shingles. I just got an antiviral medication for the next seven days and drops to help clean my eyelids. This is so bothersome, sometimes while trying to read I see blurry.

Patient started to have trouble breathing around February 10th. She also complained that she couldn't swallow very well since the 2nd vaccine on February 2nd. On February 12 she called in a panic. Her lips were swollen and then her tongue started to swell. I took her to the ER where they sent us to a large hospital. They ran all sorts of test. Blood work, CT Scan, ultra sound. No one could tell me why this was happening. They gave her antibiotics and steroids and the following morning on February 13th she was discharged. The next morning on February 14, patient called me again in a panic. She couldn't breath and couldn't swallow. Her lips, tongue, and under her chin were swollen, hot, and hard as a rock. I rushed to get her and took her back to the hospital. She was in the ER for about 8 hours where she was almost intubated as her airway was close to closing off. She was moved up to the ICU that day and stayed in the the ICU until February 19th. During that time, they ran all the same tests, blood work, CT Scan, ultrasound and no one could tell me why my mom was having this reaction. After we returned home I received a call from the ICU doctor who was checking on her as they had more patients come in with the same symptoms post covid - vaccine. She advised to file this reaction with all the information I had and told me that patient was not to get the booster if one was required later.

She guesses she will just have to see what's going to happen or maybe she shouldn't have it. The doctor said Pfizer may tell her not to take it. She does not see any expiration date or NDC number, just reminder for the next appointment. Dose: unknown to the caller. She just knows it was dose number 1 and that they went and got it. She says she thinks she will just follow up with her doctor and she also said to let them know when she gets the shot to watch her longer than 15 minutes, she may call them maybe they will just come up with some other medication to give her if she needs it because they do not want to give her Prednisone anymore. She guesses she will go take it and see what happens. She is sorry she could not find her doctor's address. Oh she found the doctor's information. Just so happens she got a piece of mail from them today. Investigation assessment; no. the outcome of events was recovered. No follow-up attempts are possible. No further information is expected.

On 12Mar2021, patient experienced sinus issues. On 20Mar2021, patient experienced that her legs were heavy and felt like they were weighted, which made it difficult for her to walk. On 22Mar2021, patient experienced burning pain on her lower lips, specifically in the space between the lip and the teeth.

On an unspecified date in 2021, patient experienced hypersensitivity reaction. Patient stated that when she was changing her outfit she accidentally pinched her arm and the pain was more than expected and it left a bruise. About 7 hours after, she noticed that her mouth started to burn. She mentioned that she also had pineapple that day and was not sure if it was caused by the vaccine. On the 09Mar2021, she consulted a nurse practitioner who said that the burning may have been caused by the Pineapple. On 10Mar2021, she consulted her allergologist and got tested for a pineapple allergy. The results came in on 15Mar2021 and they came back negative for the allergy, but her allergologist mentioned that pineapple can still irritate the mouth. On 18Mar2021, she consulted with her Primary in which she was given magic mouthwash that made it worse. She was made to continue her benadryl and aspirin spray.

Reportedly, after eating dinner she was eating pineapple from a can. She had the can and tried it. She had not had pineapple in a long time. While sitting in her recliner, she experienced her mouth burning. She added that began about an hour and a half after eating the pineapple and it has lasted for approximately 2 weeks. It was not constant all the time. She did not know at the time if the burning in the mouth was related to the pineapple. Caller added they thought it was the pineapple causing this. Last Sunday, the caller indicated that it was leaving and going away. Caller saw her new primary medical doctor on 09Mar2021. The Nurse Practitioner said it was probably the pineapple, She started her on Benadryl. Manufacturer was unknown to caller. Caller took 2 tablets on 09Mar2021 and stopped taking it on 10Mar2021. She restarted taking the Benadryl on about 14Mar2021. Caller stated she was primarily calling and asking because on Monday, 22Mar2021 she started having burning in her face and had burning in her arm. Caller reported the burning in her arm was not from the vaccine and she thought it was caused by her blood pressure cuff. Caller took her own blood pressure. Burning was better today, she still had burning in her arm. She took Zyrtec as instructed by her physician twice a day. She took a half tablet on 10Mar2021 through 13Mar2021. She was taking half a tablet in the morning and a half tablet at bedtime. Caller added that the Zyrtec made her feel unsteady and it made her sleepy. She did not tolerate it. Dose was 10mg. She has recovered completely from unsteady and being sleepy with Zyrtec. Caller took Tylenol because she was having sinus issues. She did not have the manufacturer, she took it on 12 and 20, two times. Its 325mg, by mouth, the regular strength. Caller saw an allergist on 10Mar2021 who tested her for pineapple allergy. The Allergist called on 15Mar2021 and reported she was not allergic to pineapple. Allergy was also tested for egg white, milk, wheat, corn, peanut, soybean, potato, yeast, and tomato. All resulted as negative. Benadryl: took 2 times in 09Mar2021. Caller restarted Benadryl and took it on 14Mar2021-17Mar2021. These days she only took it in the evening. She took 25 mg at night.

Dose was 27.5mcg per spray, spray into each nostril. When providing strength, states writing was so small for her to see. Gets a magnifying glass to confirm strength, states it's with her age. The doctor also suggested for the caller to try Afrin spray on 18Mar2021. Caller started it on 20Mar2021 and used it only once. She didnt like it. Caller said at her age she occasionally breaks out and uses Clindamycin for that. Dermatologist has her using Clindamycin 1 per cent pledgets. Applied twice to face once daily, She stopped 20Mar2021. Given Magic Mouthwash, which was in a pharmacy bottle, she took it once on 18Mar2021, but stopped. It was 5-10ml swish and spit. It made things worse and did not improve it. The doctor forgot to give her a measuring cup, and caller thought she told her a teaspoon. Caller added she tried using a warm cloth on her sinus area and her skin felt like a sunburn. The cloth left a red area around her cheek. Then this Sunday, after using the pledgets, went for a walk, next day noticed her face was really burned, not just face, her neck, arms, but she was not exposed, but had a burning pain, and she still continued to have it. She asked the dermatologist if this could be caused from the Clindamycin. The dermatologist told her no. She took a walk on Saturday and did not know if she was dehydrated. She felt like there were weights on her feet as she walked. It lasted 30 minutes. The burning in mouth started 7 hours after the first dose and it had improved.

On 20Feb2021, she started not walking well, thought she would fall. All of a sudden, she felt sick and threw up like crazy while she was visiting her daughter for the day. The firefighters came to take her blood pressure and it was up to 210/110 mmHg. They advised her to go to the ER. After several hours, she was given blood pressure and nausea pills. They mentioned vertigo. She says it got okay. However, 2 weeks ago, she started to have a funny feeling around her head. Not dizzy but her face usually gets red when her blood pressure high and she was not red at that time. It was again reported that the day after she was administered the second dose of Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine she had chills and felt yucky that day. She also reported feeling really funny since 20Feb2021. She was asked for further information on events related to Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine. She was at her daughter and noticed her balance was not quite right. She started feeling really funny so just lay down there for a little bit. When she did get up after about 15 minutes she started feeling nauseous. She got to the bathroom really fast and threw up like crazy. She did not have her blood pressure cuff with her so her daughter called the fire department and took her down there real fast. At the fire station they took her blood pressure which was 210/110 mmHg, so they suggested she head to the emergency room so she did. She was under observation in the emergency room, but not admitted to the hospital. The doctor mentioned vertigo somewhere along the way before she left the emergency room. She just kind of brushed the vertigo off until she was reading about that the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine can cause vertigo. She guesses vertigo was what caused these events because she had been sick as a dog. When they got her on the bed and rolled her back she felt like she was going 90 miles per hour and by the time they got her back on the bed she was throwing up again-but this time and the initial onset of throwing up was the only times she threw up. They gave her something after probably 5-6 hours, blood pressure medicine and nausea medicine and she got ok and left there. Her heart rate has been wanting to be a little higher than usual. About 2 weeks ago she was just sitting on the couch and noticed especially when she would turn her head she still feels really funny; not dizzy, dizzy; she was walking ok; but the really funny feeling keeps hitting her continuously. During call when she sat back down she felt the really funny feeling going up her throat. It was just the weirdest thing, she wishes she had a word to really explain what the really funny feeling was but she does not. She has not checked her blood pressure for a while because she has been holding for a while for this department, so her blood pressure could be up a little bit, but she stated event was worse right now than it has been. Regarding testing/investigations while in the emergency room they did a CT head scan, lab tests, and an EKG. CT head scan results, the doctor mentioned 3 little places but when she talked to her doctor he said that was really just nothing to worry about with age; he said they will check it in 6 months and make sure areas are not growing. Caller has no further information to provide regarding lab tests or EKG results, they did not mention anything. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of blood pressure/ up to 210/110 mmHg and feeling nauseous. The outcome of the events, felt chills/Chills , Felt yucky, her balance was not quite right, felt sick/sick as a dog, threw up like crazy, face usually gets red when her blood pressure is high and it she is not red at this time, felt the really funny feeling going up her throat, Her heart rate has been wanting to be a little higher than usual was reported as unknown, not walking well, feeling nauseous and vertigo was reported as recovering, funny feeling around her head/Feeling really funny and blood pressure/ up to 210/110 mmHg was reported as not resolved. No follow-up attempts are possible. No further information is expected.

She did not feel really good for a day or two but it was nothing that alarmed her, she was tired and wiped out. She always took a shower since she had arthritis and it get gets her joints going. On 24Jan2021 after she got out of the shower, her face felt hot and it was red. She didn't think too much about it and it went away pretty soon. She did not connect it with the vaccine. On 25Jan2021 she took a little longer shower and the same thing happened, but it was 10 or 12 times worse in regards to her face feeling hot and was red. She was drying off and getting dressed and reported her face felt funny and it was really hot. When she looked at it was bright red like she had the worst sunburn, it felt like a sunburn. Her face was red and eyes were red bloodshot and it lasted about half an hour; her face got real flushed like a real bright sunburn and her face was burning and burned bright red. She started putting on cold wet wash cloths to help cool her face down and when it the wash cloths got warm, she would wet it again to cool her face down some more.

She worked out in yard and last summer she got an insect bite on her forehead that turned gray, it was the size of silver dollar. After the hot flush thing this morning, that gray spot came back. Her doctor said it might take a while for it to go away. Her face felt warm like it has been sunburned. Her throat was dry since she has been waiting on the phone for an hour. Her face feeling sunburned/hot was about 95% gone, barely there. Her face getting red started on 24Jan2021 morning and it was almost gone.

She would like to know if she should be worried about this, it only happened when she took a shower. She was asking if there was anything she can do before she can get the second injection, so it does not happen again or what to do if it does happen again. Final outcome of tired and wiped out, eyes were red bloodshot and face was burning and burned bright red/her face feeling sunburned/ face got really like the worst sunburn was unknown; outcome of the other events was not recovered.

Asthma attack began about 20 minutes after injection, with throat tightening, slight mouth swelling sensation and immediate wheezing which grew progressively worse. I had my inhalers (Levalbuterol and Flovent) with me, used Levalbuterol at the direction of medical people who surrounded me after I reported wheezing. They gave me a Benadryl, then brought a wheel chair and sent me directly to the ER. I was there about 3 hours during which I had a heart monitor, a "breathing treatment" by a respiratory therapist, and DUONEB, famotidine (PEPCID), and (DELTASONE). I was given a 3 day Rx for 20 mg. of prednisone, and released. My lungs felt "twitchy" the next day and my voice was muted, but was well otherwise. The only "normal" side effect I had was some soreness at the injection site for a couple of days, with some light sensitivity there for a few weeks.

Patient had her second COVID vaccine on 2/20/21. The next day she developed diffuse body aches. She went on to develop worsening dyspnea and fever to 103°F on February 23. She had a fever again on February 24. The patient also experienced a few episodes of vomiting and diarrhea but no abdominal pain and had pain of the legs, right greater than left. Blotchy red patches of the hands and arms developed. She therefore presented to the ER on 2/25/21. See full history below from infectious disease note on 3/1/21: Patient is an 80 year old female who has a past medical history notable for hypertension, dyslipidemia, and hypothyroidism. The patient was diagnosed with a high-grade lymphoma of the retroperitoneum in 2004 and completed 4 cycles of multi-chemotherapy (Cytoxan, Adriamycin, vincristine, methotrexate, and IT chemotherapy (Magrath-like regimen)). She completed 4 cycles with complete remission on PET scan. The biopsy of a left cervical lymph node in 2007 revealed follicular lymphoma and she completed radiation therapy to the neck with complete remission. A left axillary lymph node biopsy in 2016 revealed grade-3 follicular lymphoma with mixed follicular and diffuse histology. Chemotherapy was pursued. The biopsy of a pelvic lymph node in 2019 was consistent with G1-2 follicular lymphoma.  She completed radiation to the pelvis in May of 2019.  She developed progressive pelvic adenopathy in April of 2020 and received 5 cycles of chemotherapy. Subsequent CT showed improvement in the adenopathy.  Her course was complicated by pulmonary emboli (September 2020).  In November of 2020 she was started on maintenance Rituxan every 2 months.  She received the 2-dose Pfizer COVID vaccine series on 1/29/21 and 2/20/21. With the above background, the patient presented to the emergency room on February 25, 2021 with complaints of diffuse body aches, which had developed that day after receiving her second dose of COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccine.  She went on to develop worsening dyspnea and fever to 103°F on February 23.  She had a fever again on February 24. The patient also experienced a few episodes of vomiting and diarrhea but no abdominal pain and had pain of the legs, right greater than left. Blotchy red patches of the hands and arms developed.  She called Oncology on February 20 and it was recommended that she go to the emergency room for evaluation.   She was afebrile on presentation to the emergency room.  She was tachycardic, however, with a pulse rate of 117 bpm.  She was breathing at 48 breaths per minute.  Blood pressure was 105/80 mmHg.  Oxygen saturation by pulse oximetry was 96%. Examination was notable for paraspinous muscle tenderness, tachypnea, mild respiratory distress, and a mildly distended abdomen.  Mild erythematous patches of the feet and forearm were noted, as well as evidence of edema of the right leg from the knee to the lower leg. The peripheral blood leukocyte count measured 0.8x10e3/µL.  ANC was 0.48x10e3/µL.  Platelets measured 96x10e3/µL.  Creatinine was 0.97 mg/dL.  AST was 86 and ALT 20 U/L. The lactic acid level of the venous blood was 3.6 mmol/L. The procalcitonin level of the blood measured 28.37 ng/mL. The C-reactive protein level was 313.7 mg/deciliter. The creatine kinase (CK) level was 4023 U/L.  LDH measured 314 U/L. Troponin was 3.22 ng/mL.  Urinalysis showed 6-10 wbc?s, 0-2 rbc?s/hpf, 3+ blood, negative nitrites, hyaline and granular casts as well as amorphus crystals. A chest radiograph showed possible, but not definite, mild atelectasis or infiltrate at the left lung base.  A radiograph of the right tibia/fibula showed circumferential soft tissue edema seen within the knee and upper to mid aspect of the lower leg.  EKG showed sinus tachycardia but no evidence of arrhythmia or ischemia. Cultures of specimens of the blood were obtained.  The patient was started empirically on vancomycin and cefepime and was admitted.   Faint erythema and ecchymosis of the right leg extending to the dorsal right foot and right wrist erythema were noted following the patient?s admission.  Her condition subsequently destabilized with increased respiratory rate, worsening pain, and hypotension, so she was transferred to the ICU. An abdominopelvic CT on February 25 revealed a small amount of free fluid in the abdomen around the liver, cholelithiasis with no evidence of acute cholecystitis or biliary dilatation, a nonobstructing 5-mm stone of the mid pole of the left kidney, coronary artery calcifications, mild infiltration of the fat in the inferior retroperitoneum and along the right common iliac region with small nodes in this region, similar compared with September 24, 2020, but improved compared with April 30, 2020, and consistent with response of lymphoma to chemotherapy; a myomatous uterus. A CT scan of the right lower extremity showed extensive edema about the subcutaneous tissues of the right lower leg and infiltration of the fat about the muscles of the right lower leg, likely representing cellulitis and fasciitis, and possible myositis. However, there was no air within the subcutaneous tissues or muscles to suggest necrotizing fasciitis and no evidence of abscess.     The patient?s antibiotic treatment was later changed to vancomycin, piperacillin-tazobactam and clindamycin. Cultures of specimens of the blood were later reported as being positive for methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus on 2/2 sets. Repeat blood cultures (February 26) were positive as well. Her antibiotics were modified to cefazolin monotherapy. Repeat blood cultures on Feb 27 and 28 were negative.   TTE completed 2/27/21 without obvious vegetation.   TODAY (3/1/21): Cultures negative 2/27 and 2/28. Remains on IVIG. Afebrile. She complaints of continued pain in the Right leg and swelling at that left arm. Exam GENERAL: NAD EYES: Sclera and conjunctiva clear NECK: no adenopathy LUNGS: Breath sounds normal and symmetric. No rales or wheezes. HEART: regular rhythm, no murmur appreciated ABDOMEN: Soft without mass, tenderness, organomegaly or hernia. EXTREMITIES: RLE with ecchymosis, slight overlying erythema and anterior blister: blistering more pronounced today. left foot with plantar erythema, some tenderness today.

Diagnosed on 29Jan2021 with shingles. She was immediately put on the protocol of Gabapentin and Valtrex, the antiviral. It got worse. She gave it one more day and yesterday she went to the doctor. She has a bacterial infection on top of shingles. She is on the second day of antibiotic. Her question is her second Pfizer COVID19 shot is scheduled for 10Feb2021. Should she take it? Is it safe to do that? She also wanted to report it so it would be part of the database in case other people break out. She wasn't allowed to take the Shingles vaccines because the doctors did not want her to because of her compromised system. She has not had Shingles vaccine, but she did have chickenpox when she was younger. The rash is raging and like a flesh eating monster. It is bacterial and shingles. The patient was on gabapentin strength: 100mg. She took one a day for three days and now is up to three a day. The patient's glasses are giving her trouble.

On the COVID19 vaccination card the information that said Pfizer, lot number, and date were on a little sticker that was taped on the card. Caller had to get her husband to read it to her. For the healthcare professional it was initialed. The patient doesn't want to die of Shingles either. These shingles are bad. She took the COVID vaccine because her health is compromised. She has hypertension, diabetes type II, and Psoriatic Arthritis. They qualified her for conditions along with her age. She thinks she stays positive because she doesn't dwell on this all the time. She just does it. She hasn't taken Humira since the diagnosis of Shingles because she has always been told to stop the biologic if she has an infection. She has been holding the Humira. It was due this week, but she did not take it. The outcome of the event rash was not recovered. The outcome of the rest of the events was unknown. The action taken of adalimumab for the events was temporarily withdrawn on unspecified date. Follow-up attempts are completed. No further information is expected.

Burning of mouth, lips, difficulty breathing. Lips swelled, cracked and peeled. Inside of mouth no longer burning , Swelling in lips has gone down, they have been peeling for days. Lips are red, still sore, but I'm hoping they are done peeling. I really don't feel I can handle another shot of this vaccine. I think I may have to cancel the second shot. I don't know what is it it, everyone keeps telling me it has no penicillin or sulfa drugs in it, but the symptoms are the same. The only difference is my hands haven't cracked and peeled along with my lips and mouth. I've had these problems since last tuesday night and am taking Benadryl trying to get some relief from it still. Please let me know if you have any solutions to prevent this.

On 20Feb2021 (Saturday), the patient got the first dose 20Feb2021 and the itching started after midnight. On 21Feb2021 at 02:00 AM, she experienced itching all-over, but it had diminished and was now on her shoulder and neck area. She noticed, it got worse after she has taken her reflux medication Nexium and Gaviscon and wanted to know the expected duration of this side effect. She mentioned that she had vaccine, Saturday at about 1:30 PM it was reported that it went fine but at about 2 AM she woke up itching and she didn't think anything about it and thought it would go way but continued and it gets worse when she takes her antacid. She quit taking her Nexium, it got worse with that antacid. It was a little better, but on an unspecified date in 2021, she was still tingling around her shoulders and neck and wanted to report it, but she also wanted to see how long she might have this problem or when would it go away finally. As her itching started after midnight and was fine until then which was why she thought it was something to do with her acid reflux medicine because she took it before she went to bed and then yesterday, she took Gaviscon, and the itching got worse. She says it was like Pepcid or something like that, it was an antacid. She also took her prescribed medication for acid reflux. It was improved but it was still there. Further she added that it was not like she itches and scratches all the time, but it was just there, mainly around shoulders and neck. She was startled she had any reaction because she did not right at first but might be people should know that you still could have a reaction. She took the Nexium that night before and she had taken all her medicines as well which was her blood pressure medicine, cholesterol medicine, Nexium, vitamin D and A vitamin. She had taken all of those the night she started itching. Last night all she took was her blood pressure medicine. She also had taken Tylenol and when she started itching like when it was bad, she took some, it was like allergy relief like Zyrtec (generic). Last night all she took was blood pressure medicine because she did not want to mess with anything. She had not taken any antacid since about 12 yesterday morning and the itching got worse than that was why she was thinking maybe that was the problem. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of the events with Tylenol and Zyrtec. The outcome of the event pruritis/itching all over was resolving, while the outcome of the other event was unknown. No follow-up attempts are possible, no further information is expected.

An 81-year-old female patient started received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection, lot number: EL3249), via an unspecified route of administration at left arm on 23Jan2021at a single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included ongoing Hashimoto's disease; scalp issue; abrasions on her head like eczema; and weight loss. She was diagnosed a couple of years ago with Hashimoto. A thyroid disorder. She is not on a thyroid medication. They have just been watching it to see. She took the shot. For background, the last couple of months the patient has had abrasions on her head like eczema. She has been going to the Dermatologist for the last year. They have been trying to figure out what is going on. Concomitant medications included Phentermine for weight loss. The patient took the shot on a Saturday 23Jan2021. She did fine Sunday, but by Sunday evening on 24Jan2021, she was feeling bad. On 24Jan2021, the patient experienced injection site really red, hard and warm but didn't hurt; head broken out so bad; and joint pain. On 25Jan2021, the patient felt very dizzy/ light headed, fatigue and lethargic. As the evening went on for two to three days later from the vaccination, she experienced side effects. She got up in the middle of the night that night, and her head was broken out so bad that she couldn't comb her hair. There were least 100-150 small little bumps on her head. They almost feel like they have oil under them. They were sore and very irritated. Her scalp was blood red with inflammation. This has went on the course of 8-9 days. She also had joint pain really bad. Almost like a flare up of Hashimoto. She hasn't been having issues with it. It was like her skin was on fire. Even regular water in the shower feels like it was burning. It felt like some kind of nerve ending issue. She was also very off balance, and light headed. She never ran a fever. She was so exhausted that she couldn't get out of bed for the last 8 days. She is scheduled for the second shot. She is scheduled for the second dose 16Feb2021. Her doctor told her to go ahead and get the other shot, but she would like more information. She did not have a prescribing doctor. She got the vaccine at a a local hospital where she goes for testing. She could never get through to get ahold of the hospital so she tried to go through another facility. She finally got an appointment through the hospital. She was wondering if it is okay to get the second shot. She has had a scalp problem, but nobody knows what it is. They have tried to treat it with a steroid. She has seen several who don't have a clue what is could be. Whatever she has, the vaccine aggravated it 10 times worse. The joint pain was almost 100 % better since yesterday. It was mostly in her feet and knees. She was very dizzy and light headed. She wasn't falling all over the place or anything. That has improved over the last day or two. The first night, she got up to go to the bathroom, and she lost her balance but caught self. she was very careful from then on. She has fatigue as well. She still has a little weakness since the 25Jan2021. She never lost her appetite, but she felt very lethargic since the 25Jan2021. She has recovered from most of these issues, except for her head. She is in very good health except for her thyroid issue. That she has been diagnosed with for a couple of years, and the stuff in her hair. They don't know what has caused that. Every test has been negative. She thought at one point it could be the medication she was on. She was taking Phentermine to lose weight. She was wondering if it would have any recourse, but her doctor said no. She quit taking it the day before the shot just in case. She hadn't taken it again until today. The dose is 37.5mg. The way she felt at first, she felt like she had COVID. The patient stated, "I had some reaction to the (first) Pfizer covid 19 shot I took on 23Jan2021 wanted to ask if I would be able to take the 2nd shot. I took the shot fine, got home. The injection site was red, hard, kind of warm. My arm was never sore but the day after into Sunday I felt very washed out and thought I was tired. I have a thyroid issue, I've been having a scalp problem and this sometimes come with my thyroid issue. Little bumps in my scalp, they were kind of under control because of the Clobetasol propriate foam that I put in my hair and ever since then my skin is on fire. But the main thing I was exhausted, joint pain, knees, feet, even my hands. I laid around and for 5-6 days and today is the first real good day. I still have the bumps but I'm seeing a different dermatologist. I have an over active immune system Hashimoto's disease and something can set up a flare." The outcome of the events almost like a flare up of hashimoto and a scalp problem, but nobody knows what it is/ whatever she has, the vaccine aggravated it 10 times worse was not recovered; events she was feeling bad, joint pain, knees, feet, even my hands, very dizzy/ light headed, i felt very washed out and thought i was tired/ exhausted, lethargic and she still has a little weakness was recovering; events the injection site was red, hard, kind of warm was recovered in Jan2021; and outcome of the other events was unknown.

She clarified she read the information about the COVID-19 Vaccine at (Website name). She said she read skin anaphylaxis was extremely rare and less than 1% of the population has the allergy, and those individuals should not get the COVID-19 Vaccine. She said she was upset because what she read probably means she can't get the second COVID-19 Vaccine shot. She said she read the skin anaphylaxis appears within 4 hours after getting vaccinated with the COVID-19 Vaccine. She said her symptoms occurred in almost the same amount of time as to what she read about a skin anaphylaxis reaction to the COVID-19 Vaccine. She said she has a regular check-up on Wednesday (24Feb2021) with her doctor, and will speak further to her doctor about getting the second COVID-19 Vaccine.

A 81-year-old female patient received first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Solution for injection, Batch/Lot number: EN6201; expiration date: 30Jun2021) via an unspecified route of administration, administered in deltoid left on 02Mar2021 11:00 as single dose for COVID-19 immunization.

On an unspecified date, the patient experienced had sore arm and on 02Mar2021 had strong headache, stiffness/neck stiffness, chills, weakness, soreness all over the body, moderate soreness at the injection site after covid 19, joint pain, felt cold, tiny red spot at injection site about the size of a dime, back pain. The events were considered as non-serious by the reporter. Reporter stated that she was a Retired RN, and she had her first dose of the Pfizer Covid vaccine on 02Mar2021 at 11am, and she was scheduled for her second covid immunization on 23Mar2021. Caller has questions about side effects she experienced after the first dose and whether or not she should get the second immunization. Caller states she had a pretty strong reaction to the first injection. Caller states that she had the COVID disease in 22Oct2020, the caller went to the ER and had a positive COVID test because she had a fever, but she was sent home because her lungs were clear. She reported that both her son and her husband also got COVID around that time, but none of them had to be hospitalized. Stated that about an hour after her first injection, some soreness developed at the injection site. Later that afternoon she started to get a strong headache and her arm was getting sorer; in the evening, she started developing more joint pain in multiple joints, all over including, and especially, on her toes and feet; and her left arm was getting more sore, she got the chills, and she felt cold all the time, her temperature was 96.4; caller states that she also developed a tiny dime sized red spot at the injection site. Caller states that she also was thirsty, but she was a diabetic and that might have something to do with it. By the time it was time for her to go to sleep she was stiff and weak all over. She had neck stiffness, the feeling of being kind of stooped over. Caller was worried she would be unable to straighten up. The next morning, she still had weakness, stiffness and soreness, could hardly take a shower. She had to sit on side of tub and had to have her husband help her to get dressed. By about 10am the next day, everything started going away and by noon everything had pretty much cleared up completely and was gone. The pain in caller's feet and joints was gone by lunch and she did not have a fever. Caller states that at dinner that night, she was still weak though, and at the evening meal, she was so weak that she couldn't get up from the chair at the kitchen table alone. Once she was on her feet, she was okay, she could walk, but she uses a cane, especially when she was sick. About an hour or two later, she had a temperature of 99.4. But the next day, she didn't have a fever, and she could use that same chair without help. Caller states that she was fine by Friday and her blood sugar was 95, which was good. Caller states that she had a backache a few days following, but she has had backache before. Caller states that this was her history, she had the COVID, and she had a bleeding ulcer over a year ago now. Caller also saw a Cardiologist and had the watchman device implanted at the end of Sep2020, caller had this procedure to try and help get her off the Eliquis, which she had been on since having the stroke. Caller reports that she also had a Rectal bleed when she was put back on the Eliquis, and her doctors kept her on it because of the stroke. Caller states that she has silent A. Fib and that can throw little clots, so the doctors wanted her on a low dose of Eliquis but apparently that was too much for the caller too. Caller thinks the heart procedure is doing great and doing its job, but she was unable to go in for her follow up to the procedure, because she needed an esophageal echocardiogram to see if the device was sealed over by the heart muscle, and she couldn't have that until Jan2020, because she had to test negative for COVID twice. Caller states that her hemoglobin never really recovered more than 10 since her bleeding ulcer. But her hemoglobin went down to 7.4 and she was sent to the ER at the end of Jan2021, and she had two transfusions, and the next morning her hemoglobin went down to 7, the hospital staff thought that she must be bleeding. So the caller saw a GI doctor who said that the caller needed an endoscopy and colonoscopy to see where this was coming from, to make sure she was not bleeding from the ulcer. They saw the ulcer was healed but irritated, and the colonoscopy removed a couple polyps. The polyps were negative for cancer cells. After the caller had the COVID injection, she had blood in her stool. Caller went to the ER in the evening of 08Mar2021, and she stayed in the ER until the next morning. Caller states that the stool sample did show that there was some blood in her urine (captured as provided by the caller), and the ER did a CT of her abdomen, and they didn't see blood or diverticulitis. Caller does have a history of diverticulosis or internal hemorrhoids. Because things were going on last Fall, and things were rescheduled with the COVID disease, and things, the caller did not get her regular flu shot until 12Jan2021, because she needed two negative COVID tests prior to being able to get the Flu shot. She got two negative COVID tests on 24Dec2020 and 06Jan2021. Caller does not know if having had her flu shot in Jan2021, could have affected it. Caller was concerned and was wondering if she should take the second dose of the COVID vaccine or not. HCP Details: Caller hasn't spoken to her PCP since she was last in the hospital. She tried to call her HCP, but that office was getting a new computer system and they were having a high call volume for COVID stuff, so caller could not get through to them. Caller plans to email her doctor today. Everything has been overwhelming with all these things and people for doctors to juggle. Event Details: Caller reports that the soreness at her injection site, by the next morning, was up into her shoulder. Caller states that her niece, who was not a nurse, called the caller and told her to get the injection three fingers below the shoulder joint, because there were some instances of people getting injected into the shoulder joint. So, caller had soreness at the injection site, but within 24 hours, states that she was just sore all over, but it all went away by the afternoon the next day. Caller states that, she was told that she would have reactions more to the second injection than the first, so that was her concern, was she does not want to get the second injection and then it be worse than what she experienced. Caller had a lot of pain in her toes following the COVID injection, but she has diabetes that was well controlled, and she has neuropathy, and probably arthritis. But caller states that the pain in her toes was worse than normal, following receiving the COVID vaccine. Caller has had a bunionectomy, so she always has some numbness in the toe, and she fell and broke her ankle a few years later. But caller states that the very concerning thing was, following the COVID injection, the joint pain and soreness all over and weakness that she experienced. Caller had the stiffness together with some of the other things from her low hemoglobin anyway, as she has not fully recovered from the blood loss, but she was much better, and after the transfusions she had a hemoglobin of 10. And when caller went to the hospital lately, her hemoglobin was 9.4, and she was having it tested Tuesday morning again. Caller states that it was hard to say that everything she experienced was from the COVID vaccine, as she has a history of some of these things, including weakness. Caller finally got off the Eliquis when the hemoglobin went so low, she stopped the Eliquis maybe on 29Jan2021. Caller states that she was told by her Cardiologist that her symptoms at the time were from low Hemoglobin. Caller states that she was probably walking around with that low hemoglobin for a few days. Weakness: Caller states that at times she gets very fatigued, but she was not so weak right now. But caller states that weakness has been an up and down thing for her for the past few months, even before the COVID vaccine. Treatment: Caller took her normal Aspirin, but she did not take Tylenol even though she was told she could, and she did not take Allegra. She just took her normal medicines. History: When caller had her rectal bleed, she went into the ER on 08Mar2021, and she was sent home the next morning. Caller states that the ER was busy that evening and did not see the doctor until 10 or 11 that evening. But when the tests were finished up around 3am, the caller was told that she could go home or be admitted. Caller asked to go home but not until a little later in the morning, so she could call her family. Knee Bleed: Caller confirms it was aspirated and treated in the ER; she did not have to stay overnight. Caller saw orthopedic doctor a day or two later, and he did not order anything else. Caller walks with a cane now most the time because she is trying to avoid falling. Eliquis: Caller reports that the Eliquis was held for a few days after her GI bleed. She was taking 5mg twice a day from April or May2018. Caller had the GI bleed and the Eliquis was held for a few days and then she went back on it, then had rectal bleeding again. So, after that, caller's dose was reduced to 2.5mg twice day. The doctors did not want to take her off the Eliquis because of her prior stroke, so they just reduced her dose. The Eliquis had been preventing little TIAs and stuff in her hand and mouth and stuff. And that reduced dose was okay for a while. But caller states that she started getting those symptoms back, and several times a day she was getting the numbness, and she was scared she was going to have a stroke, so she said maybe because she was previously on mg twice a day, maybe she should up her dose to 7.5mg, and that worked well. So, caller took 5mg in the morning and 2.5mg in the evening. This was over a weekend, and on Monday the caller wrote her cardiologist, who said this dosing was not normally recommended, but if it was working for the caller, then that is okay. But then in July, the caller got the knee bleed. So, the doctors thought the caller's knee bleed was from the 2.5mg knee bleed but caller thinks she started to get that earlier because she had an episode that was similar before that, caller thought that episode in May or so was just arthritis. But, in Jul2020 her knee became swollen, very painful, and she could not get out of bed. Caller states that her son who was a weightlifter could not get her out of bed. She went to hospital via ambulance where her knee was aspirated. Caller reports that the Eliquis was not stopped due to the knee bleed, she was just told to go back to 2.5mg twice daily. Caller states that her heart doctor said that because she has had a stroke, she has to take the Eliquis to prevent stroke. Caller reports that she initially was not interested in the Watchman implant, but after all this, she decided to get that procedure so she could stop the Eliquis because she was a bleeder. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included colonoscopy: the ulcer was healed but irritated, endoscopy: the ulcer was healed but irritated, haemoglobin: 7.4 on Jan2021, haemoglobin: 7 on Jan2021. The outcome of sore arm and weakness was unknown, headache, stiffness/Neck stiffness, chills, soreness all over the body, moderate soreness at the injection site, Joint pain, felt cold, tiny red spot at injection site about the size of a dime were recovered on 03Mar2021 and back pain recovered on 09Mar2021.; Sender's Comments: Based on the information currently available, a possible contributory role of the suspect vaccine BNT162B2 in triggering the onset of pain in arm,toe,headache,stiffness,chills,weakness,pain,joint pain,feeling cold,vaccination site erythema,pain and pain in toe.

she felt her scalp itch like there were bugs on it/Scalp was just itching like crazy; headache; muscle and joint pains; muscle and joint pains; chills; temperature was 99.8 so the next time I took it and it was 100.8; felt lethargic; didn't get sleep that much; my throat closing up; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer, the patient herself. An 81-year-old female patient received second dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, formulation: Solution for injection, Lot number: ER8732; Expiration Date: 31Jul2021), via an unspecified route of administration, on 26Mar2021 (age at vaccination: 81-year-old), as single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history was reported as none (not heard anything from anybody). There were no concomitant medications; she did not take any medications because she did not know if it was permissible. The patient previously received first dose of bnt162b2 (Lot Number: EN6198 and Expiry: 30Jun2021) on 25Feb2021 and she did not experience side effects from that dose. The patient reported that, yesterday (26Mar2021) was fine, it did not hurt the arm and everything, however, at 2 o'clock this morning, on 27Mar2021, she felt her scalp itch like there were bugs on it. Her scalp was just itching like crazy, and it would not stop itching so she just had to run her fingers through there, got a little bit of alcohol and just kind of rubbed it in there but it was just something under the skin. She then experienced headache, muscle and joint pains, chills, and a fever. She took her temperature, and it was 99.8 so the next time she took it, and it was 100.8, but since then it had got down to 99.7, so she still felt like she had fever. She had a feeling that she was slow and just did not want to do anything and that was how she left the day because she did not know whether she was going to react to it or not but there was no swelling around the injection site, no nausea, did not have swollen lymph gland, heart beat was not fast, did not have a bad rash, dizziness (not clarified further if had dizziness or not), no weakness, maybe weakness from no sleep because she hardly had any sleep and also felt lethargic. She did not see any swelling of face or throat, so she was mainly worried about her throat, maybe her throat closing up. She mentioned that these not concerned her and as long as she could swallow, she did not panic and could bear it. She said that she had been through so many shots in her life and she never had a reaction like that before so she did not think she would be required to go to the emergency room or anything like that because she just did not feel, but she said yes that was important that she take care of this, but it was not emergency in her book. She was so hungry, she just had a muffin and was not vomiting yet, she did not think anything would happen like that, as she did not think it was serious. Reportedly, she did not throw up and she felt like it would be more bearable for her to have food in her belly. She told that, she purposely did not have any lab test done because she knew this COVID was coming up and she had to have 3 boosters that she needed to take, but she was going to take them 2 weeks after. She also reported that, she did not take corrective treatment for fever and itchy scalp, as someone told her not to take anything, Tylenol or an Aspirin, so she did not. The outcome for the events: fever and itchy scalp was recovering (It was improved throughout the day and she walked around the house a lot just, because she exercises), and the outcome was unknown for the rest of the events. No follow-up attempts are possible. No further information is expected.

COVID Vaccine I got my #2 Pfizer last Tuesday Apr 6....no problem at all with #1. The vaccination was in my LEFT arm, and the 1st day or so I didn't really have anything but tiredness. But the last few days have been very painful. I developed swelling on the RIGHT side of my face starting at the temple. That progressed down to the ear area the next few days and was quite painful. Since Saturday my tongue, lips, gums became swollen resulting in barely being able to swallow. Also rash developed and is getting worse. Additionally I ache all over and feel like a very bad case of the flu. I tried Tylenol Extra Strength in the beginning, but that seemed to only ease the pain for about an hour. Now I'm using Advil, which helps for several hours. Is there anything I can do to get relief. This is the 8th day....and it seems to be getting worse instead of better.

I developed a very sore arm. It swelled around the injection site, turned red, formed a hard lump and was hot to the touch.. This has lasted all week but it has become progressively less. I am very active (for my age). I swim 1/2 mile laps twice a week; do regular exercises for balance and to relieve back pain and regularly do tai chi. I think this exercise, especially with my arms has helped reduce the symptoms. The symptom wasn't serious and did not impede my activities. I am sending this because I thought it might be helpful.

Medical history included ongoing allergies (She normally gets an allergy shot for mold and stuff. She had one 8 days prior to getting the vaccine. She has not gotten one since. She is due but she cannot get it until this clears up. She is unsure of the name of the allergy shot that she gets. She had all the allergy tests years ago and has been going for the last 4 years or so. For things like mold, dust, cockroaches, grass, and trees) for which receiving allergy shot, ongoing High blood pressure, ongoing Reflux, and ongoing Osteoporosis/osteopenia.

Patient had the first shot of the vaccine last Tuesday. She stayed for half an hour and was fine. She left there and 10 minutes later while driving she started getting itchy around her face mask. She thought it was the mask irritating her skin. As the day progressed her cheeks and under her chin were getting red and itchy. She took Benadryl and the next day it got worse. She called the doctor and they put her on 20mg Prednisone two times a day. That was a week ago Tuesday. She called her allergist and he thought it was the poly glycol peg that is in the vaccine. He will test her after it is all out of her system. Both her regular doctor and her allergist told her not to take the second shot because it was too close a situation. She did not have an anaphylactic reaction, but if she had not jumped on it right away what could have happened. She is wondering if company has any data on the efficacy of the first shot if going on Prednisone right after? She started the Prednisone the next night. She is tapering off now. She still has a little bit of heat on her face and itching under the skin. So, apparently, she had an allergy to the vaccine and was told not to get the second shot. Patient clarified that she did not get the vaccine last Tuesday. She got the vaccine last Wednesday which was 20Jan2021. She said the reaction started about 40-45 minutes after receiving the dose. She has improved about 90% since starting the Prednisone. This morning her face is a little red. She is currently weaning off the Prednisone. Her face was red and it feels a little hot. She is down to 10mg twice a day. She had started the Prednisone the next day on 21Jan2021. She started the wean yesterday. This morning her face is a littler red on her cheeks. The vaccine seems to be taking a long time to get out of her system. NDC, lot, exp are unknown for the Prednisone as it is in a pharmacy vial. Her doctor told her to stop taking Benadryl as it does not stay in the system long enough. She says the Benadryl is not in a bottle, it is in a stupid little package. LOT: SMF001. EXP: May2022. Her doctor put her on Zyrtec twice a day instead. She started that on 25Jan2021. The outcome of the events was recovering.

My mother called me when she was going to get her second vaccination. She was alive and well and living independently at her home. She could walk, talk, make her own food, wash and dry her own clothes and take her own baths. After taking the second vaccination she went down hill. She became sicker and sicker and eventually she started coughing up blood. She decided to go to the hospital, another Hospital of facility. I don't know what the treatment was at that hospital but she was soon transferred to facility and that is where I was notified she was in the hospital and visited her there. After arriving they intubated her and said she had blood clots in her brain and heart. When I saw her after she transferred from Hospital to the Hospital I noticed one arm was swollen. Her legs were as they have been for the last 20 years and looked okay to me--no discoloration other than her regular discoloring at one right ankle and the same old same old slight swelling in the left ankle. The doctors and nurses were putting the blame on her legs but you could tell things were happening else where. But as she got worse and worse at the hospital her right arm become more and more swollen with dark bruises appearing--the hospital staff took pictures. The left arm continued to swell and did not look normal at all. She apparently had bleeding in her left lung from a blood clot. She had three areas of her brain that add clots and some bleeding. She was constipated and gaseous when they cleaned her. They didn't treat her constipation which made being intubated worse because I feel that caused her intestines to swell, thus she also had bleeding in her intestines. My mother died on March 17, 2021 at hospital in ICU. I was told they could not treat the blood clots because of the bleeding in her lung, intestines and brain.

About 15 to 20 min. (when Pharmacist was notified) after her shot, the patient reported in Spanish, through her daughter, numbness around the mouth. The Pharmacist had advised her to sit and wait 30 min. after the shot, due to her anaphylaxis history from multiple things. The Pharmacist monitored her and she continued to report itching on the forearm where she got the shot (not around the site) and slight shortness of breath. The patient never appeared to be in distress. As the symptoms continued, the Pharmacist decided, though an Epipen was ready to use, to call 911. Paramedics arrived within 5 to 7 min., questioned her, took her BP, Oxygen level and listened to her breathing (all were good). She said she was feeling better and said "no" when they asked her if she wanted to go to the hospital. The paramedics stayed with her about 10 minutes longer and she left with her family. She did not receive any Epipen or Benadryl (is allergic to it) but wanted to take a box of Claritin 10 mg with her (said it always helps). The paramedic told her Claritin will not help anaphylaxis (for future). The patient was advised to contact her physician because she probably would be at high risk for a second Covid vaccine.

Starting on unknown date in Mar2021, about 3 weeks after she was administered the second dose her arm just reacted strangely, ache, hurt like a toothache just where the vaccine had been placed. It continued that way. Her arm had also sort of lost the strength in it too which still was not returned totally. Events are ongoing, still every once in a while would come back like a toothache; people say it would go away. She asked the expected duration of events; and if potential third dose is or is not recommended relative to events. Patient thought she was about 5 feet and keeps getting shorter, used to be more than 5 feet tall. But she vacuums, moves things around, trying to do what she should do; but events are continuing and she just wondered how long it would continue yet before it went away. Doctor said they would get a third dose of the Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine, and she do not know whether she should relative to these events. The reason she got the Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine doses in the right arm is because 2 years ago when she got the flu shot patient had a reaction where site was very red; so she thought she was not going to get injection in the left arm again because she is left handed. She knows that not supposed to get other vaccines, so she has not gotten the vaccine for shingles. The harder she tries to remember the worse it is, then she remembered vaccine for shingles. The physician put cortisone in her shoulder because he said it was something else, that he really do not think it was from the shot. She thought well she has had no accident, no fall, no bang, nothing to produce this other than the shot. He looked at it and gave her some exercises to do, so she was going to continue with therapy at the clinic; she goes to see the lady next week. Before all this happened it was going on and on and on. She had a problem with her knee on left side which the doctor looked at during that appointment. After the Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine was administered, about 6 weeks ago she was working out in the yard. She do not think it had anything to do with the vaccine. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included x-ray: unknown results on unspecified date. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of calling to report pain, weakness to right arm, second dose hurt when it went in, arm had also sort of lost the strength in it too, twisted her knee a little bit/folding chair came down and slammed down onto her knee, deep bruise, arm just reacted strangely, ache, hurt like a toothache just where the vaccine had been placed, arm just reacted strangely, she hasn't gotten the vaccine for shingles, could only remember the itchy thing, problem with her knee on left side. The seriousness of the events was medically significant. The clinical outcome of arm had also sort of lost the strength in it too, deep bruise were recovering, of the arm just reacted strangely, ache, hurt like a toothache just where the vaccine had been placed were not recovered, of the calling to report pain, weakness to right arm, hurt when it, second dose hurt when it went in, twisted her knee a little bit/folding chair came down and slammed down onto her knee went in, she hasn't gotten the vaccine for shingles, could only remember the itchy thing and problem with her knee were unknown.

Reporter is an 86-year-old female consumer who has received the first dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. She is calling today to inquire about whether she should receive the second dose. She states that she has 4 autoimmune disorders, and she thinks she may also have Parkinson's disease. She is concerned that the vaccine might worsen autoimmune disorders. She states that she has Lichen Sclerosus, spinal stenosis, trigger finger on the right hand which started after she received the Pneumovax23 vaccine last year, spinal stenosis, difficulty walking and dry mouth. She does not take any prescription medications. She reports being allergic to an antibiotic that starts with an e and it caused her to have a severe long lasting headache but she cannot recall the name of the medication. She also reports whatever medication they gave her for a stress test caused her heart to race and made her feel like she was going to have a seizure. She states, my arm was not even sore after getting the vaccine, is that normal? My arm was sore after the pneumonia vaccine and the flu shot but not after my covid vaccine, is that normal? The caller then went on to report that "the day after the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine my left ankle was itching me like crazy. It was a strange kind of itching. It was bothering me, I don't know and then it went away. She also reports developing a rash in the middle of her chest about 2.5 weeks after the first dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. She noticed it this past Sunday 02May2021 and she describes it as, looks light pink, little teeny tiny bumps, middle of the chest near the neck. Reporter wants to know if the itching and rash that she experienced with the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine have been reported before. The reporter stated that she is concerned about taking the second dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine because she is worried that it could make her autoimmune disorders worse or that she could develop new autoimmune disorders because of the vaccine. Reporter asks how long she can postpone or reschedule her second dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine until she speaks with her doctor. Reporter stated that she heard 6 million people have not returned to receive their second doses of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine and wants to know if we have information as to why they chose not to proceed with the second dose. Reporter stated that she is thinking about not getting the second dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine as scheduled this Thursday and waiting until September, October or November and just get the booster shot like they are talking about. She wants to know what this agent thinks about that plan. Reporter stated that she has heard getting the second dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine can cause swollen lymph nodes and that concerns her. Responded per page 2 of the attached document, Swollen lymph nodes (lymphadenopathy), which generally resolved within 10 days, is likely to have resulted from a robust vaccine-elicited immune response. She is transferring her to report adverse events she experienced after the dose of the COVID vaccine. Two weeks after her 1st dose she felt chills and swelling in her lymph nodes. she has questions about the efficacy of the second dose. The caller clarified the details provided by the transferring agent. She did not have chills. She was just saying she was on her computer in the other room the other day, and all the sudden she felt cold. She always has her house on the same temperature of 76. It is on air-condition because she will be away. The last lady said chills it wasn't chills. She just felt cold. Her nose is stuffed up but was way before the shot. It will be 3 weeks ago tomorrow that she got the vaccine. The cold feeling happened two weeks after the first. The second shot is due tomorrow. She is wondering if she should get it. She noticed she started to feel cold 2 weeks after her first Pfizer vaccine. Is that normal to feel cold. She didn't think about it being the Pfizer vaccine when she got cold. She used to be 5'4.5 but is now 5'0. She got the vaccine at the see formal field Her doctor told her to go to the hospital to get it not a drug store. She waited 30 minutes.

She got the vaccine at 1130 am. She didn't even feel it. She didn't have pain in her arm at all. It was like she got no shot at all. She is a little tired now. She needed to take a nap in the last couple of days. This started a couple of days ago. It has almost been 3 weeks wince her first one. see formal field She is wondering if it is normal to have 2.5-week later side effect. She did have a rash on her chest 3-4 days ago, but that was reported. Her doctor is a rheumatologist who deals a lot with the immune system. She did have a stuffed nose before the vaccine for several months now. Adverse event did not lead to visit to Emergency Room, Physician Office. Outcome of the events was unknown.

Patient reported dizziness and a fainting episode the morning after her immunization. She knew she was getting dizzy and she attempted to get into her recliner, but fell into her recliner and injured her rib and possibly her 'tailbone'. She went to the Emergency Department where she was examined and scans were taken of her ribs. She was determined to have 'bruised' ribs and sent home with advice to take ibuprofen and acetaminophen alternately every 4 hours for pain relief. She has been at home since this episode. We only found out about this adverse event this week when we called her to confirm her second immunization. She reported this fall to us and was reluctant to get the second shot. I reported the event to her provider, and now to you at VAERS.

She had not seen anything like that. I have looked at all the images of Covid Toes on the internet and have not seen any with scabs on the tips of the toes.

Dizziness; Pain in the lower extremities; pain in feet; legs hurt; Felt poorly; Blood pressure which was up a little but not terribly; Left arm where she got the injection was sore (localized pain); This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient's sister). An 88-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE; Lot Number: EL3249), via an unspecified route of administration in left arm, on 13Jan2021 07:45, at a single dose, for COVID-19 immunization. The patient's medical history included atrial fibrillation, hypertension, bypass in 2010, hearing is very bad on the phone, arthritis pain, headache, and blood thinner. The patient's concomitant medications included metoprolol for hypertension, quinapril for hypertension, acetylsalicylic acid (BABY ASPIRIN) for hypertension, ascorbic acid/ calcium/ minerals NOS/ retinol/ tocopheryl acetate/ vitamin B NOS/ vitamins NOS/ zinc (CENTRUM SILVER), calcium carbonate (CALTRATE), atorvastatin, warfarin as blood thinner, spironolactone, and paracetamol (TYLENOL) for arthritis pain and headache; all were ongoing. The patient received the first dose of the BNT162B2 vaccine on 13Jan2021 and had reactions to the vaccine or something else. That day, the patient's left arm where she got the injection was sore (localized pain), but that was expected, and it went away within 2 days (initially didn't report it because it was expected). Yesterday (18Jan2021), the patient experienced dizziness and pain in the lower extremities. Last night (18Jan2021; about 6 days after the injection), the patient woke up, felt poorly, and was very dizzy (feeling of dizziness), then, later on, had pain in both lower extremities. The patient took her blood pressure which was up a little but not terribly with result of 159. The patient's heart rate, temperature, and pulse oximetry were okay on 18Jan2021. She then walked to the bathroom, came back, and went back into bed. The second time she said her legs hurt but this morning she is feeling better than she was. Today (19Jan2021), the pain in feet is better, and the dizziness is gone. Pulse oximetry and temperature were okay this morning (19Jan2021). The patient was wondering if these effects could be related to the vaccine, since the dose was received 6 days ago. The patient was not sure if could possibly be related to the COVID-19 vaccine or if it was that she spent a lot of time doing paperwork on the computer yesterday (18Jan2021) and perhaps that caused some of the symptoms. The patient's sister called to ask if Pfizer has heard of any late adverse effects from the COVID-19 vaccine like this patient's, 6 days later. The patient was scheduled to get the second dose on 04Feb2021 (day 22) and her sister asked what if it's not available. The patient's sister was concerned about interval and potentially being unable to gain access to the second dose due to supply issues. The patient recovered from "Left arm where she got the injection was sore (localized pain)" on 15Jan2021; and from "Dizziness" on 19Jan2021. The patient was recovering from the other events.

Patient received second vaccine dose and felt well without significant symptoms in the days following. Then, on 2/19 she developed epistaxis, brusining, and petechiae. She had labs drawn by a local provider and platelet count was 7. (baseline, even on chemotherapy for her AML is in the normal range). Therefore, she reported to a local health center and a recheck of the platelet count was <3k. WBC and Hb were within normal range. No circulating blasts or other evidence of AML. No recent infections or other exposures. That center reached out for transfer to our hospital as we initially diagnosed and treated her AML. I advised dexamethasone 40mg and transfer (they also transfused 5u platelets prior to her departure) Upon arrival at our center about 12hrs later, platelet count was 210 and on 2 rechecks it has remained in the normal range while continuing dexamethasone 40mg daily. Bleeding symptoms ceased and she was discharged in stable condition. She plans to return back to home after discharge with repeat lab testing later this week after stopping steroids. Chemotherapy to be held at least one extra week to ensure stability.

The vaccination provider had difficulty with the needle and her skin had black and blue since that day, she had not experienced any other side effect. The patient read somewhere that in older people the vaccine was not as effective, her doctor told her that the black and blue was a result of being mistreated, and she had also heard that this should not happen. The black and blue was getting lighter, she saw some yellow as in bruises, when she took a blood test her whole arm was black and blue. She would like to know if this was normal or if she was "the first one in the history to report this" and if her injection was effective and if it had full effect. She continued to state the operator that gave her the vaccine had difficultly administering it to her as a result the operator started prodding her and the injection area was then black and blue. It did not hurt her, well it did hurt when he did it, and she told him that. She used ice on the area but everyone she had shown said 'oh my God that was not normal she should go see a doctor'. She did not have any after effects, she was fine, all symptoms listed she did not have any of them other than the black and blue arm. She was starting to get concerned because it had been so many days. She mentioned it was getting yellow at the time of the report. She was concerned that the vaccine was ineffective or it was effective and something was wrong. Patient stated the black and blue area resembled something like when she got a blood test and the operator had difficulty, she continued to report that sometimes she would be black and blue at the area of the blood work and that sometimes her whole arm would be black and blue. She continued to speak about her concern with the black and blue area, she stated she worried, was the vaccine going to work ok because of this. She thought it was import and that it was such a peculiar thing. She had spoken to her doctor and pharmacist, they felt it was just a black and blue area that would go away but she was concerned because it had been so many days and she felt it should have resolved by this time. She did not take any ASPIRIN or acetaminophen, because they said not to. She was concerned that the vaccine was ineffective or it was effective and something was wrong, due to the event that she was experiencing. Injection site was black and blue. The patient was recovering from the events. No follow-up attempts are possible. No further information is expected.
