Patient reports routinely having spells of syncope with injections and still insisted on receiving COVID-19 vaccination. Gave injection into left deltoid. Had patient scoot up to table in immunization room with both legs fully under the table just in case there was an issue. I set the timer for 15 minutes and left him in the immunization room with his girlfriend, who also received a vaccine. A few moments later the girlfriend asked for our help stating he was feeling like he was going to pass out. I went into the IMZ room and checked with him. At the time, he was sweaty with a rapid hearbeat. I instructed him to take some deep breaths and went to get a cold paper towel to apply to his head. When I returned he had passed out, not responsive but still breathing, in his chair and his girlfriend was holding his head in her hand. We gently lowered his head to rest on the table while another associate called 911 per girlfriend's request. He began moaning a few moments later and was able to talk to us. He was very hot and sweaty, light headed and breathing rapidly. We applied a cooling pack to his forhead as he continued to lie his head on the table. He then said he might feel more comfortable lying on the floor. We assisted him to the floor, elevated his feet on a chair and placed his head on a roll of paper towels. At that time the paramedics showed up and said his blood pressure was fine and he was just having some hyperventilation. The paramedics got him back up in the chair and his girlfriend got him some apply juice. After about 30 minutes he was talking fine, shaking had stopped and his breathing a temp went back to normal

Admission HPI: Right-sided chest pain began 2 days prior to admission (3/19) after getting out of car, without identifiable trigger. Pain was sharp, pleuritic, and worst with movement; didn't feel it when still. Pain not responsive to ibuprofen or heating packs. Reported 30-60 seconds of self-resolving heart racing during ocular migraine which has been his baseline for years. Not associated with SOB (at rest or with exercise), palpitations, presyncope, or syncope. No viral URI symptoms, N/V, or rash. He did receive his 2nd Moderna COVID vaccine about 1 week PTA, followed by 36hrs of fevers, chills, and body aches. Given persistence of pain, Patient asked his parents to present to urgent care. In UC, he was noted to tachycardic with CXR with bibasilar atelectasis and b/l effusions, per report. Given continued tachycardia, decision was made to transfer to ED to r/o PE. In ED, tachycardic to 104-116 and tachypneic 22-26. Had one episode of tachycardia to 182 iso ocular migraine. Endorsed chest pain but points to R middle abdomen when asked where worst. Exam was unremarkable. He received 1 dose of morphine which reduced pain from 10/10 to 0/10. Labs notable for leukocytosis (14.61), thrombocytopenia (422), elevated d-dimer (1.56), and elevated CRP (5.6). Otherwise normal chem and coags. COVID/RVP negative. CXR unremarkable. CTPA showed scattered PEs in b/l lower lobes with small pulmonary infarct in RML. No evidence of right heart strain. Heme was consulted who recommended starting him on lovenox and sending lupus anti-coagulant. Cardiology was consulted who recommended EKG, BNP, and troponin, all of which were normal and reassuring against right heart strain. ECHO was therefore deferred to the AM. The decision was made to admit. Upon arrival to the floor, Patient was tachycardic 114 and tachypneic to 22, otherwise stable vitals. He denied any pain since morphine. Denied any unexpected weight loss; reports that car ride was short. Mom reports that Patient has been less active d/t cold weather and baseball being on hold. Denies family or personal history of clots. Last seizure ~13 years ago. Hospital Course: (3/21 - 3/22) Patient was admitted to the hematology service. He was therapeutically anticoagulated with LMWH injections and his anti-Xa level prior to discharge was 0.92. (goal 0.5-1.0) Lower extremity ultrasound with Doppler showed patent veins and no evidence of DVT and upper extremity ultrasound showed no evidence of DVT, though there was potential evidence of collateralization seen in mid and distal third of right subclavian vein and left internal jugular vein. Since this was an unprovoked PE, a full thrombophilia workup was sent and will be followed up by the outpatient hematology clinic. Cardiology consulted regarding possibility of right heart strain and the tachycardia during migraine episodes. Echocardiogram performed on 3/22 was technically limited but showed no gross abnormalities. The cardiology team requested a repeat echo scheduled outpatient for 1-2 months after discharge.

On Monday April 12 I had terrible chest pain and it was very hard for me to catch my breath. I tried to get up and walk and became very dizzy. I was then taken to the hospital and my mom stated that while in the car I had a loss of consciousness. Doctors at the hospital came to the conclusion that it was a heart attack but after following up with the cardiologist then he thought I may have myocarditis. Unfortunately I have a pectus excavatum that is being repaired and the mri couldn?t confirm the myocarditis due to the metal in my chest.

I had no symptoms after receiving the first dose, but after receiving the second dose I developed a high fever of 103 degrees as well as body aches, hypersensitivity, dizziness, migraines, and diarrhea. I eventually began taking ibuprofen to manage the symptoms, starting on night one. I then usually took ibuprofen twice a day after that. My symptoms were completely treated by ibuprofen and nearly all of them disappeared when I took it, besides the diarrhea. Oddly I also developed cold sweats when taking ibuprofen, which would dissipate after the ibuprofen stopped working. The symptoms kept coming back, as far as a week later, however, I didn?t have to take as much ibuprofen as before because they were becoming intermittent. Today, I almost got through the whole day without a return of any of my symptoms, until about 11:00 PM, after which all symptoms came back, the difference being that my fever is now low grade. This has been the case for two days now, no symptoms until night, when they all return promptly.

Chest congestion; Contracted Covid 3 weeks after second dose/Exposed to someone with COVID; Hard time breathing; Fever; A spontaneous report was received from a consumer (patient's mother), regarding a 21 years-old male patient, unknown race and ethnicity, who was administered Moderna's COVID-19 vaccine (mRNA-1273), and experienced chest congestion (pulmonary congestion), contracted COVID three weeks after second dose/exposed to someone with COVID (COVID-19), hard time breathing (dyspnea), and fever (pyrexia). The patient's medical history was not provided. No relevant concomitant medications were reported. On 14 Jan 2021, the patient received their first of two planned doses of mRNA-1273 (lot/batch: unknown) intramuscularly for prophylaxis of COVID-19 infection. On 11 Feb 2021, prior to the onset of events, the patient received their second of two planned doses of mRNA-1273 (lot/batch: unknown) intramuscularly for prophylaxis of COVID-19 infection.

Action taken with second dose of mRNA-1273 in response to the events was not applicable. The outcome of events, chest congestion, Contracted COVID three weeks after second dose/exposed to someone with COVID, hard time breathing, and fever were not reported.; Reporter's Comments: Based on temporal association and the known safety profile of the vaccine, a causal association between the event of fever and mRNA-1273 cannot be excluded. The event of COVID s not consistent with the vaccine profile and is of an infective etiology, hence assessed as unlikely related to mRNA-1273. Pulmonary congestion and dyspnea are assessed as symptoms of COVID-19 also assessed as unlikely related.

My left arm was sore starting a few minutes after the vaccine. This soreness last through that night. When I woke up the next day, my arm was extremely sore and I was very dizzy. Additionally, my pulse felt fast but my heartbeat seemed to have less strength. My breathing felt more shallow like I wasn't getting as much oxygen from the air that I breathed in as I should. For the first two weeks, the dizziness was very strong. Now, at the three-week mark, it is more manageable and life is somewhat returning to normal. I visited an ENT doctor and their diagnosis was that my dizziness was not being caused by a preexisting medical condition. Their prediction was that I would be fine, though looking back, I downplayed the severity of my vertigo. At its worst, I felt that, when I went for a walk outside, the surface was the Earth was violently spinning through space, with me stuck to the surface. It felt paralyzing. My body felt almost stuck in shock. I was afraid I would be stuck with this dizziness for the rest of my life since it was so long-lasting. Now, I am taking ginger pills and am watching my sodium intake. I feel better but am extra vigilant about taking ginger and not stressing myself too much. I do not plan on getting a second shot since some of my symptoms mirror those of anaphylaxis.

Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine EUA The patient was in his usual state of health until he received his second dose of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine on Tuesday 2/23. He had previously had no side effects from the first dose other than soreness at the injection site. After the 2nd dose, he noticed arm soreness at the injection site more quickly than before. 10-12 hours later, he noticed headache and subjective fever, which was relieved by Tylenol. On Wednesday he woke up with subjective fever and chills, and felt sternal chest pain during deep breathing and attempted cough, but did not notice any effect from positional changes. Other than attempting to cough to elicit pain, he did not experience any other symptoms such as runny nose, coughing, sneezing, congestion, shortness of breath, palpitations, abdominal pain, diarrhea, or dysuria. The following day, he noticed that the chest pain was more severe and persistent throughout the day. The pain location would vary from the sternal area to the left side of his chest. The intensity of pain would vary between a 2-3/10 to 7-8/10. When the pain peaked, it would be accompanied by feelings of fever, chills, and brief headache, and he felt that the pain would "spread" across his chest. The pain would persist for a variable amount of time but then eventually disappear before returning. The pain was not affected by deep breath, position, or analgesics (he took an ibuprofen at around 2 AM when he couldn't sleep). After he fell asleep he was not woken up by pain. On Friday, he pain continued to be intermittent, and peaked during a work meeting. At that point he told his boss and an MD co-worker, who recommended that he presented to the ED. The EKG that was obtained in triage showed sinus tachycardia widespread ST elevations, PR depressions, with reciprocal changes in aVR. At this time he was continuing to experience chest pain. After getting a room in the ED, he no longer felt pain. He received a 2nd EKG showing improvement in ST elevations in some, but no all leads. He received ibuprofen and he continued to feel no symptoms. He was found to have a troponin elevation of 8.84 that peaked to 11.2. Transthoracic echo showed no motional wall abnormalities, normal EF, no pericardial effusion. He was admitted to the CICU out of concern and workup for myopericarditis.

Got up from my desk and laid down, and it went away. * Tuesday, March 30th (two weeks post-vaccination), I started experiencing persistent dizziness/imbalance. It was manageable for the first couple of days, and I still went about my daily activities. * Thursday, April 1st, symptoms got noticeably worse. I had a really bad episode of vertigo/dizziness in the afternoon. This spell of bad symptoms lasted until Saturday evening/Sunday morning. I wasn?t falling down, but I would describe it as akin to being on a boat in rough seas or a plane flying through a storm. Pressure in head and ears was intense. I?ve had longstanding tinnitus, but pitch/volume definitely seemed to change somewhat. My neck was incredibly stiff, and my throat felt somewhat ?tight?

My dreams get warped when I'm sick. I woke up and I had a headache that was centered around several spots in my head. I couldn't get comfortable no matter what I did. It's impossible to lay down on the side you get the shot on. It hurt like... 7x more than the first one when they're administering it. The scariest symptoms though, for me, was that I couldn't catch my breath. You know when you take a hot shower and you can't really breathe 100% because of the steam? That's how I felt all day after the 2nd dose. Also, I couldn't tell if I was full or not when I ate. The only way I could tell was stomach pains. That's all that's happening/has happened to me. I do feel better alot better though two days after having the 2nd dose.

I took the FIRST dose of the Moderna vaccine this Tuesday on the 20th of April at 11:30 AM. Around 10:00 PM Wednesday I have been feeling short of breath. This feeling has persisted throughout the entire day of Thursday and I continue to feel the same way (I think it has slightly worsened). I can breath, but I am completely unable to take a full, deep breath. I sometimes can achieve a full deep breath but it's completely at random. I find myself trying to forcefully take a deep breath but can't seem to fully fill my lungs how I normally am able to. Additionally, my throat feels mildly swollen/sore, starting from the back of my mouth and down my esophagus. The lowest point of my esophagus at which I feel the soreness/mild swelling is near the center of my chest. I think my shortness of breath is progressively, and slowly worsening, but its hard to tell for certain. Some of the muscles around my back are beginning to feel uncomfortable due to me constantly trying to forcefully achieve a full and deep breath.

On Sunday April 25th 2021, I woke up with severe chest pain that went up to the right side of my neck, as well as having shortness of breath. I was admitted into the ER and they ran blood work, did a CT scan and x ray of My chest. When my bloodwork came back, it showed I had very elevated troponin levels. Because I was having continuous pain, I was given morphine but it didn't work. So they upped it and gave me dilaudid and that took the pain away. It was in the doctors best interest I get transported to a facility with a good cardiatric team. Upon arriving to the new facility, they further drew my blood and ran more tests. I got admitted as an in patient on the cardiatric floor. The cardiologists ordered for me to have an echocardiogram done, another CT scan with a special protocol to view my heart, and an MRI done of my heart. After my echocardiogram and CT scan came back fine, the doctors said they'd be surprised if the MRI DIDNT show something. When that result came back, it did reveal my heart was still inflamed. After ruling out all other possibilities they concluded that the 2nd Dose of Moderna COVID vaccination I'd received was the culprit behind my diagnosis. My diagnosis being, a case of myocarditis as well as a mild heart arrhythmia. For the next several months I am kn a medication called metoprolol 25mg, 2 half tablets a day, to correct my heart arrhythmia and relieve stress from my heart as well as minimize the amount of stress I encounter each day. No heavy lifting pushing or pulling of any sort for the next 3 months.

A few seconds after shot, pt became pale and immunizer asked if he was ok. His muscles tensed and shook a little and he passed out, falling slightly to the right. The technician was able to place herself between him and the floor and slowly lower down, leaning against the wall of the pharmacy. By this point, about 30 seconds at most had passed, and pt was awake and cognitive, but had no recollection of passing out or how he had gotten to the floor. He did know his name and where he was, but was breathing heavy. We took his blood pressure at this point and it was 82/46 with a pulse in the 40's as well. Pt refused ambulance and we had him continue to sit on the floor. Patient mentioned he had this type of reaction in past to other vaccines (not stating what), though only telling us prior he had "slight dizziness once". He also stated he had not had anything to eat or drink that am so we got him a snack and some water.

After receipt of the vaccine, I developed a low grade fever the next day (1/7/21) that persisted throughout the day until it progressed into a fever of at least 101.3 F at night. It might have been higher, but that was the best reading I could get. It felt like the fever came on extremely fast bc all of a sudden I started shaking vigorously with rigors and chills. I couldn't get out of bed without experiencing the most uncomfortable chills I've ever experienced. I previously had Covid in early November, and this fever felt worse than what I experienced when I actually had Covid. Also, I experienced moderate to severe pain in my left arm on 1/7/21 at the injection site, which was far worse than any other muscle soreness I've experienced from any other vaccine I've received. The hour preceding the sudden fever attack, my left arm was feeling blazing hot, looked a little red, and swollen. I also experienced a strange allodynia type pain, whereby parts of my body hurt from simply touching them. Although I did not develop a significant rash, I experienced pruritus all over my body, predominantly affecting the areas around my ankles and wrists. I have a hx of multiple dermal filler injections in my lips. I don't think I had any problems with my lips after the injection. But other symptoms that I developed included a tickle in my throat and some shortness of air. On 1/8/21, I woke up drenched in sweat so I presumed that I broke my fever while sleeping. I have felt much better ever since. I'm a nurse practitioner student, and I had to miss a day of clinical on 1/8/21 bc of this reaction to the vaccine. I used ibuprofen the morning on 1/7/21 and Tylenol at night on 1/7/21 to bring down my fever
