My birthfather had an adverse reaction after he got his 1st Moderna COVID vaccine. He lives alone and was doing well with some underlying conditions. The day of the shot was fine. The next AM, he had vision changes and sudden numbness in his R arm/leg and fell after getting up. ?The numbness went away pretty quickly, but the visual changes remained. He refused to go to the ER/Dr. The next week and a half, he was weak, tired, and couldn?t think as clearly. ?He was brought to the ER? on Wed, 3/3/21 at Hospital. He was found to have a low oxygen level, possible a-fib, fluid retention, emphysema, and aortic stenosis, in addition to his other health issues. ?The Dr said his symptoms the day after the vaccine were a mini-stroke.. He was released from the hospital on Friday, 3/5/21. On Saturday, Hospice came to see him, since nothing can be done for his medical conditions; however, they decided not to sign him up yet, since he I was told they didn't feel he needed to, at this time. One of my sisters is staying with him during the day until he builds his strength back up. Do you think his Mini stroke and health changes had anything to do with the vaccine? He will not be getting the second COVID shot. ?We?re all caught between a rock and a hard place as far as what to do, esp for older folks.

Dad woke up one morning in February with a a pain in his groin so severe he could not swing the leg forward to walk. He used a walk-behind walker to get around for several weeks. Eventually he could walk without support, but only if careful. The pain would also radiate down the thigh of the same leg. After the groin/thigh issue started to improve the pain changed to the buttock and thigh of the same leg. He had to use the walker again to safely walk. He also had difficulty lifting the leg up to get out of a recliner. He had to use his fists on either side of the bad leg and lift himself with his arms because of too much pain if he tried to push up with his leg. He has discovered that if he swings the bad leg behind him before he starts to try to walk, movement of the leg is less painful. He is using the walker to maintain balance because of the problems with his leg. It just recently occurred to us that these problems coincide with the Covid vaccine doses and decided to report this.

Hi, my name is, I'm a RN and am submitting this report about my grandpa. I took him into the VA to get his second covid vaccine on 2/17/21. At that time my grandp lived semi-independently in a house between my parents and my uncle . He didn't get out very much but with some help of grocery shopping and organizing his medication he was still able to live alone and function well independently. My mother reported to me on 2/18/21 that my grandpa was confused, weak and tired. My grandpa has never had any signs of dementia. At this time he developed a delerium that waxed and waned. He complained of headache, no appetite and extreme weakness. On 2/23/21 he fell down in his house and we decided to move him into my uncles spare bedroom to keep better eyes on him. The delerium persisted and on 3/5 he was taken to Hospital for a workup for his delerium and weakness. There he saw Dr. an internal medicine doctor at hospital. The workup showed an elevated BNP (probably baseline but I'd have to look at previous lab results) but nothing further. We opted not to do further imaging and instead take him home. It became obvious to me that this was the end of his life and so I requested a hospice referral from Dr. My grandpa died on 3/24/21.

Patient is a 99-year-old man with prostate cancer and sprouting eyes. No signs of dementia; awake, alert, and oriented by 3 (person, place, time). The patient needs a walker and a person assisting so he can move. He visited the pharmacy and came with two family members. After I evaluated the patient, I administered the vaccine. Just after the administration of his first dose of the Covid-19 Vaccine he felt very dizzy and with severe headaches after standing up. Family members told me the patient occasionally suffers from dizziness when he changes from the sitting position to the standing position. I sat him again and he keep telling everyone he did not felt fine. He was semi unconscious; his eyes were almost wide shut and his family members besides me told me he felt cold and never had dizziness like this. Just after that, I asked him if he could breathe, and he nodded yes with his head. I was ready for applying CPR or oxygen depending on the scenario. But I was very worried for him because of his age and decided to call the ambulance. The paramedics came in half an hour, but he started to feel better after a while. The paramedics got his blood pressure and was low and his glucose levels were high. They recommended the patient to go to the hospital, but he refused. He talked with his family members and instead decided to go home.
