It lasted just a quick second or two. Happened several times that day. Like what I would think a TIA would feel like. Arm was just slightly tender and stinging the first day,. In the night it was aching and hot up into my neck. The next morning it was fine again. Just tender and a little stiff. I attempted to report this on line at instructed on forms given me when I left the site. however the CODE that was to be sent to my phone never came. I then entered the wed site and attempted to report it there. . Finally I called my primary Dr and he has instructed me to report this to the person giving the second injection.

A 76-year-old female patient received first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection, lot: EN6203), via an unspecified route of administration in left arm on 27Feb2021 (at the age of 76years) as single dose for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included ongoing fibromyalgia diagnosed in 1999; Covid-19 from 23Nov2020 to Dec2020 (went to the hospital because of pain in her side at night. Was told she had pneumonia and pleurisy, she got it 2 days after her husband did, but hers was a mild case); her husband had Covid in Nov2020 and died in Dec2020 and hemorrhoids (from having babies years ago). Concomitant medication included acetylsalicylic acid, caffeine, paracetamol (EXCEDRIN). The patient had no investigation assessment. The patient scheduled her first dose for 27Dec2021. The patient had questions about it, but the person administering it did not speak English and she said that initially she did not have any reactions while she was there. The patient received the first dose of the vaccine on 27Feb2021 and has a lot of adverse events. After the getting the shot, she woke up at 0400 and experienced shaking (whole body was shaking), trembling out of control, hurting from her neck down to her toes, her joints were achy, hurt, and stiff, her teeth were chattering and couldn't stop, and when she tried to stop that it made it worse, when she got up she had hard time walking, so much that when she had diarrhea, she had diarrhea on the floor, she also noticed that the color of the diarrhea looked red and looked like it had blood on it but she was not sure. After that, she sat down in a chair and noticed that it had blood when she got up and suspected that she had hemorrhoids and bleeding because of the diarrhea. She thought it was a result of the reaction to the shot. She noted that that she had COVID on 23Nov2020 and that she heard that people who had COVID might not need to get the second shot but it was only speculation so she was asking if this was true. She mentioned that she waited 90 days before getting the vaccine as per CDC guidelines and knew that the 2nd dose can be given for 42 days after the first dose. The patient's daughter in law who was an occupational therapist volunteered to fly in and take care of her after the second shot on 27Mar2021 but her 2nd shot was due on 20Mar2021 so she wouldn't be there until then. The patient was having a hard time rescheduling her appointment so asked if there was anything can be done. The patient would prefer not to take the second dose due to the side effects. The patient also reported that it looked like someone who had a stroke trying to walk again, her gait was off and she was kind of jerking. As she would take a step her foot would go down on a slant like it was skidding. She said that this happened one other time to her. It was like she was leaning forward and could not stop herself. When she was able to get up, she went into the living room and sat in her husband's chair and fell asleep until 15:00. When she got up, she noticed a lot of blood in the chair. The patient asked if this was allowed. She went home and took a couple of acetylsalicylic acid, caffeine, paracetamol because she did not have paracetamol (Tylenol), and she went to sleep. She had a hard time rolling and trying to get out of bed. She turned on her electric blankety and her heat. She said that by 0600 most of the shaking had gone away. She felt a little nausea, but got some dry toast. She said that she wanted to take a shower, but she started getting diarrhea from the injection. She fell in the bathroom and could not get herself up for over an hour because she was too weak. When she fell on the floor, she tried to get on a rug because she was still having the diarrhea on the floor. She said that it was everywhere. The next day she called her son and his wife they said that she could be alone for her second shot. She was scheduled for 20Mar2021 for her second dose. The patient had a hard time changing the appointment and her son could not come to stay with her until 27Mar2021. A friend told the patient that on the news it said that a second shot may not be necessary for people who have had Covid-19 already and she wanted to know if Pfizer has heard of this. The patient said that she was kind of wiped out for a couple of days (in 2021) and it was all over now. The doctor's office was aware of what happened and she was told to take extra strength Tylenol before and after the second injection to address these symptoms. The consumer considered the case as non-serious. The outcome of the event fatigue was recovered in 2021 while for the remaining events was unknown.

Got up about 2AM to go to the bathroom; started back to bed; had a bad taste in mouth, so decided to brush my teeth. Started brushing and all of a sudden, felt faint; before I could get the toothbrush back, I fell and my husband rushed over. Said I was out completely; got me awake and back up and went to bed and slept. until 11am. At 3pm when taking a shower, noticed my left shoulder blade was real sore and looked and there were 3 red strips below should blade - no bleeding tho. top R. side of head kinda sore, so must have hit when falling. Went back to bed and slept good. Didn't need to go to the Dr. and am feeling good now. Just rested for a couple days. Had been feeling really good and don't take any prescriptions, so could only think it had to have something to do with the shot. Today is the 4th day and feel good.

transferred from shoulder to her neck; shoulder was in pain/ elbow and shoulder were in pain; injection area is a little sore; I cant sleep at night; She can't position her arm in a way that is not painful; deep muscle ache pain; she was miserable; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). 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.

The patient previously took dose 1 PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Right on 09Jan2021 12:30(76-years-old at the time of vaccination), (Batch/Lot Number: EL3248; Expiration Date: Apr2021) as DOSE 1, SINGLE for covid-19 immunisation and experienced throat started tightening, Lymph nodes under her jaw were sensitive to the touch, feeling more and more tired, entire body was leaden with lethargy, couldn't do anything, all her joints were aflame, nauseous, pain in muscles, pain in joints, couldn't raise either of her arms, chills, low grade fever of 99.2 degrees Fahrenheit, Fatigue. Patient was dreading getting the second Covid 19 vaccine. One of the questions on the questionnaire she filled out prior to getting her second dose was if she had a severe reaction to any vaccine. She answered yes but no one at the facility asked her about it. She put that she may have had a severe reaction with the first Covid 19 vaccine but no one at the facility questioned it. She put question marks on the questionnaire on that question to indicate she didn't know if she had a severe reaction for sure or not. She did want to have protection against the Covid 19 virus, so she did get the second Covid 19 vaccine. After getting the second Covid 19 vaccine she experienced the same thing going home. Her throat tightened. Her jaw and lymph nodes under her jaw were tender. She was tired but didn't feel the leaden feeling she had with the first Covid 19 vaccine. She was nauseous and had diarrhea. She had muscle pain and joint pain and chills. These symptoms went on for 5 days. She thought she would be ok after the 5 days like she was after her first Covid 19 vaccine dose. On the sixth day she almost passed out in the grocery store. She had to sit on the floor of the grocery store and put her head between her knees. She was dizzy. She was still having the diarrhea, nausea, and chills. It was like having influenza symptoms. She went home that day and got into bed. Then gradually she got better. Maybe around the 9th day after the vaccine she was able to do some things around her house and on the 10th day she was better. Her lymph nodes under her jaw were still swollen. She doesn't know if what she experienced were normal side effects. She found the Pfizer reporting website obtuse. The website indicates there was a time limit to finish a report. She did not file online because she wasn't sure she'd be able to finish in the time limit. She was grateful for protection against the Covid 19 virus and would get the Covid 19 vaccines all over again, but she was not looking forward to getting a Covid 19 vaccine booster. She reported she was very healthy and active. When probed if she had seen her primary care doctor or gone to the emergency department, she reports the hospital was far away. She was living in a rural area in the mountains and did not trust the closest hospital to her. Her doctor friend who was an ophthalmologist told her that her antibodies were really kicking in and that's why she had the reaction to the Covid 19 vaccine like she did. When probing adverse events following any other vaccines, she reports she hasn't had a vaccine since childhood and doesn't remember having any adverse events from her childhood vaccinations. The last vaccine she had prior to the Covid 19 vaccine was the cold vaccine she received in 1992. She'd like to add she also had a rapid heartbeat with the dizziness on the day she almost passed out in the grocery store. That was the sixth day after the second Covid 19 vaccine on 05Feb2021. Her heartbeat was rapid for about a week after starting on 05Feb2021. The clinical outcome of the events lymph nodes under jaw still swollen was not recovered, remaining all events was unknown. No Follow up attempts are possible: No Further information is excepted.

About 20 minutes after the injection I started to feel like I was going to vomit, got nauseated and dizzy.. I had left the site after the 15 minute wait, and since I read that Nausea was one of the side effects, I thought it would go away. I waited another 30 minutes in my car at a parking lot outside the hospital in case I really couldn't drive home. I did drive home , but have been feeling the same nausea every day and some dizziness and diarrhea for the past 11 days. I called my doctor and she said to take it easy, drink fluids, eat light and that I could get the second shot. I am not sure if this is just a reaction or a severe allergic reaction and I need advice and feedback on that issue.

After first shot, I noticed stiffness and soreness in right knee but attributed it to a misstep in snow. It was annoying but not limiting; however, muscle soreness I attributed to a wrenched knee did not abate. At this point, I consulted my Primary Care Physican's office, and I also had an X-ray of my knee. It showed an aging kneecap, but I continued to report pain as muscular and on the side of my knee. An appt with local orthopedic center was suggested by PCP office and was scheduled. This was the day before my second shot. After my second shot, the pain and difficulty walking increased 100-fold. Orthopedist suggested PT for next 6 weeks, which I will do. Taking Tylenol and Ibuprofin, applying heat and cold, using some topical pain relievers; but for the most part, I am just not able to walk far, if at all. I run a business from my home, so I get around by "riding" my rolling office chair everywhere in my (fortunately) small home. If I can get to the car, I can drive without difficulty. I am a busy, active, independent person. Having experienced the polio epidemic in the '50's, I get all my vaccines; I am not anti-vaccines. I do feel the fact that my disability happened the same month as the vaccine is significant, and I wanted you to know my symptoms and situation.

The shot was given in my left shoulder. Two days later the left shoulder blade became rather painful, making movement difficult. E.g. turning my head to the left was very uncomfortable. These symptoms lasted about two days -- by a week later they were gone I used a hot pad and tylenol to become more comfortable. Probably not a very significant issue, but it was uncomfortable, I wondered if I perhaps had "pulled a tendon" or something like that.

She had been in her usual state of health until tonight. Assisted living facility staff called. He mentioned that the facility staff had earlier noticed that she was dragging her right foot and and has been needing more assistance with activities. The patient was walking and did not feel well. She was lowered to the ground and had a witnessed cardiac arrest. The ambulance was called and she was reportedly found to have pulseless electrical activity. She was given Epinephrine and Amiodarone with return of pulse. The patient was brought to the Emergency Room and was evaluated by ER physician. EKG showed atrial fibrillation, ventricular rate = 66, RBBB with Brugada pattern. She was emergently brought to the Cath Lab. Cardiac catheterization showed normal coronary arteries but EF 35-40%. Repeat EKG showed atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response = 110, RBBB. Therapeutic hypothermia was initiated. The patient was admitted to the ICU on mechanical ventilation with TV 350 RR 14 PEEP 5. She is sedated with Propofol and Fentanyl IV. She is on Levophed IV. ABG showed pH = 7.22, pCO2 = 53, pO2 = 66, O2 sat = 88%. Lactate level = 9.5. WBC 8.8, Hgb 13.4, Hct 46, Platelets 138. Na 138, K 3.2, Cl 102, bicarb 20, BUN 16, Crea 1.19, estimated GFR = 44 mL/minute. Magnesium 2.7. Glucose levels have ranged from 273-312. Pro-Calcitonin = 0.26. Albumin 3.7. SGOT 262, SGPT 294. Troponin elevated at 47. Pro-BNP = 600. Urinalysis showed large blood. Chest x-ray showed vague peripheral pneumonitis. Endotracheal tube is in place. COVID-19 test by PCR is negative (2/5/21). COURSE IN HOSPITAL The patient was admitted to the ICU and was followed by Pulmonary/Critical Care. Patient was maintained on mechanical ventilation, sedated with propofol and fentanyl IV. Vasopressors were administered (Levophed IV). She was managed with therapeutic hypothermia. She was followed by Cardiology. Foley catheter was inserted for close input/output monitoring. Neuro checks, vital signs, daily weights, pulse oximetry, cardiac telemetry and fingersticks were monitored. She was given sodium bicarbonate IV due to metabolic acidosis. She was also given insulin IV drip. Potassium chloride IV was administered due to hypokalemia. The patient was given amiodarone IV. Platelet count was noted to be low but stable. Glucose levels were within acceptable range. Metabolic acidosis resolved. Hypokalemia resolved. Hypomagnesemia resolved. There were elevated LFTs which improved. Elevated CPK also improved. She was taken off hypothermia protocol. Sedation was decreased and she was able to open her eyes with verbal stimulus but unable to follow commands. Ammonia level was normal. Neurology evaluated the patient. EEG showed left periodic epileptiform discharges consistent with severe diffuse encephalopathy. Chest x-ray revealed right upper lung and left mid lung increasing opacity for which meropenem IV was started. Levophed was discontinued. Initially she had peripheral cyanosis, but this resolved upon discontinuation of vasopressors. Brain MRI was done demonstrating diffuse bilateral small and moderate-sized ischemic foci throughout the cerebellum and cerebellar region suggestive of embolism. There also was chronic marked atrophy and moderate small-vessel gliosis. CIRCUMSTANCES SURROUNDING DEMISE Based on neurologic evaluation, her prognosis for meaningful neurologic recovery was thought to be extremely poor. The patient was evaluated and followed by Palliative Care. She does not have family members and had designated her neighbor friends as her power of attorney. They have known the patient for a ling time and they know that she does not want to live like this. A decision was therefore made for comfort care measures only. Compassionate extubation was performed on February 12, 2021. The patient passed away on February 12, 2021, at 6:39 p.m.

She struggled to raise her arms, reach her arms out, or grasp objects.

I feel I may be having a severe allergic reaction to the Pfizer vaccine (Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine) got on Thursday (29Apr2021) of this past week. I am very light headed, dizzy and felt like I am going to faint, has ringing in the ears, and all that has been going on about a week, since last Thursday (29Apr2021). Then I was really ill last night (01May2021). It started last night when we went to bed around 11 O'clock. I have never had anything like this in my life. My blood pressure was through the roof. With a blood pressure cuff and a stethoscope, her blood pressure went up over 220 which was so high that had never happened before, so I took an extra pill (atenolol 25 mg tablet) last night (01May2021) which helped a little bit but not enough, and I really thought that I was going to pass out and be really sick. Because I thought that it was either having a stroke or a heart attack, my husband had to call ambulance to take me to the hospital last night. The systolic and diastolic and pulse rate went way up. They did chest x-ray, blood work, and urinalysis, and everything came back fine and they could not find anything. They just felt that I was just having a major reaction to the shot so they sent me home. I just got home this morning (02May2021) from having to go to the emergency room. But as soon as we got home, I started with a humongous headache and so I had Excedrin/Tylenol for headaches because I used to get sinus headaches. So, I took that, and it helped a little bit, my headache got a little better. Anyhow, I am much better right now and I am sleeping. But tomorrow it will be the same." Later the patient also reported, "Today (06May2021) I am feeling a little weird with ringing of ears and is light headed sometimes. Because of the light headedness, I feels a little nauseous.

But I am really afraid if I am having a reaction to the vaccine unfortunately. I am dizzy and I do not want to start getting worst again. I guess I will feel better if you tell me that this happens sometimes and what can I do to decrease somehow?"

I first lost my nail. It was unusual because there was no trauma to the nail. I was reaching for something across my bed, and I started experiencing radiating pain across my chest as well as pressure. I stayed very still and then it spread through my left arm and up into my shoulder, neck ear and jaw. I remained still and tried breathing the best I could. This lasted a minute or two and then it released and was over. About a month later, I was diagnosed with RSV which ran down into my lungs and soon my blood pressure was going up because my heart was working so hard to breathe. It was over 200/175 which is abnormal for me. I had to end up calling an ambulance because I was having trouble breathing. I was prescribed blood pressure medication, steroids, antibiotics, prednisone and oxygen. I was not allowed to get out of bed, I couldn't walk. They told me it would take baby steps.

Neurology consult 2/13/21: This is a 78-year-old female we were consulted by Dr. for possible guillian barre s/p COVID vaccine. The patient tells me that she was in her normal state of health, and she received her 1st dose of the COVID-19 vaccineseen 7 days ago. Subsequent to that, the next day she developed chills, fatigue that continued for approximately 2 days. She states that 3 days ago, she woke up and was unable to lift her legs or get herself out of bed on her own. She felt weak in her proximal lower extremities and her trunk. She denied any bandlike sensations or paresthesias. She cannot tell me that she developed any distal lower extremity weakness initially but felt that it was the acute onset. She needed some help her out of bed when she was upright, she was able to use her walker to slowly get to the factor. She may have had some urinary incontinence, she does complain of diarrhea now. Denies any tingling sensation, no bulbar symptoms. This is a 78-year-old female who we were asked to evaluate for possible Guillain-Barre syndrome. She had acute onset of lower much greater than upper extremity weakness without any definite ascending features, of relevance, is that she received the COVID-19 vaccine 3 days prior to the onset of her symptoms. She did exhibit flu-like symptoms prior to this. Given that she does not have any specific area of intrathecal enhancement to suggest Guillain-Barre or other areas of radiculitis, I think it is reasonable to proceed with lumbar puncture to look for any other source. --Given the findings on the MRI cervical and lumbar spine including enhancement of the bilateral sacral S1 region, I would like Neurosurgery to further evaluate. -- would likely benefit from CT chest abdomen pelvis to rule out any underlying occult malignancy particularly if workup remains unremarkable. -- continue supportive care, monitor for shortness of breath, new vital capacities Patient remains admitted to the hospital with continued weakness at the time of this report

I had an unsettling waking event happen to me yesterday morning, so I didn?t feel like I could gather myself to be at an appointment after the event. I was very disoriented upon waking. I could not gather my thoughts and memories. Things like: I knew I was in a city , but didn?t know where the city was in the world; and other things like that. It was as though I had stepped out of my life and didn?t remember enough to step back in. It only lasted maybe 5 min, but was completly disconcerting & disarming. I?ve never had a similar event. And it came after another disarming 10 min bout of dizziness / sense of off-balancedness and a very slight nausea the night before. It too, was arresting because I had had no alcohol to drink for months. I felt continually better during the early morning and didn?t think about it much during the rest of the day.

Per patient report / description: "The day after the shot I had a lot of arthritic type pain all over my body for two days then continuing pain until now 5/14/21. I cannot walk more than a block, cannot stand for more than 5-10 minutes, Lingering pain all the time." Called PCP with this report: " adverse reaction to my Pfizer 2nd shot. The next day after the shot it seemed like the vaccine searched out every part of my body that might/might not have arthritis and moving was very difficult for two days. Thereafter I have had a great difficulty getting up in the morning, some days better than others. I have seen (chiropractor) often, but results have not cleared up the discomfort. I cannot walk more than a block without discomfort, cannot sit unless my feet are up for great amounts of time then expect to be able to move. Is there something that you could prescribe that would give me comfort and be able to walk without pain. I am not interested in anything that would be considered an opioid, would rather go without. Currently I am taking Excedrin. Someone told me that Advil would be better for arthritis, but I had a bad headache on day two of taking that." Told to scheduled appointment with PCP for evaluation.

She then saw the ENT and he ruled out Meniere's disease, any inner ear problem, ordered a brain MRI. This showed mild constriction of the small blood vessels consistent with her age and that was all. She continued to have the problems, and her PCP recommended balance therapy and sent her to therapy for that. This therapy is helping her, and she continues to still go for the therapy. Any of the doctors that she saw felt that it was an over-reaction of her immune system to the vaccine.

The patient's medical history included ongoing glaucoma (had it for 7 years), ongoing hypothyroid (started 7 years ago). It took her 5 years to find the right doctor and the right medication. It took a while to balance it off. She has been okay the last 2 years with the right medication; asthma from 1969(controls her allergies, so it did not turn into asthma), ongoing high blood pressure (had it all her life), allergy to glycerin and ongoing vertigo (started way before she had the vaccine).

The patient had a long list of allergies. Her family all has high blood pressure and allergies. The outcome of the event vertigo was recovered on an unknown date, for redness in her eyes was not recovering while unknown for rest of the event. Additional details unable to be obtained.

She usually gets the flu vaccine and pneumonia vaccine, she does not remember when she had it last, she usually gets them when it comes out or when pharmacy announces it and asks her. The patient noticed that people who usually get the COVID virus die of Pneumonia, so she thought she would get the pneumonia vaccine.

This is report 1 of 5. A 78-year-old female patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Solution for injection, Lot number: not reported), dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration in left arm on 28May2021 at 17:30 as single for covid-19 immunization (at the age of 78years). The patient medical history included First serious fall from May2021 to an unknown date-Shattered left hip that was May2019; shattered left hand and wrist; When shattered left hip they had to fix the shattered hip then they put a metal rod from the hip to the kneecap inside the femur bone. Second serious fall from 27Nov2019 to 27Nov2019, fell again in her home and that time she shattered the left knee, hip fracture- Broke right hip 4 or 5 times, shoulder arthroplasty- On the right arm. She broke that right before get to the shoulder, the upper arm and the shoulder and everything was all mangled, stevens-johnson syndrome from on an unspecified date in 1954 and ongoing-very severe autoimmune disease she got at age of 12, in roughly 1954. It is also called Erythema bullosum-that's what it starts out as-then becomes Stevens-Johnson Disease, then Stevens-Johnson syndrome. Affects mucus membranes in body and appears to be rejecting the eyes-this is relative to her blindness. When contracted had 108 degree fever, implantable defibrillator insertion from on an unspecified date in 2015 and ongoing- installed back about 6 years. She was taking some kind of, the numbers are way down now, she does not think there's a problem but they were thinking she was prediabetic which was probably attributed to her diet. The day before they did the blood test she had ice cream for lunch and for dinner. Then she had the blood test taken the next morning which could have set the numbers off the chart; since then the numbers have gone down. glucose tolerance impaired. They were thinking she was prediabetic and blind from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing, wheelchair user from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing. She only has 1 eye now-left eye; has been legally blind since age 24 years; now left eye is just about gone. She was the 5th person in the world to have Stevens-Johnson syndrome with blindness that could still see and lived. First 3 people with Stevens-Johnson syndrome died-4th lived but was blind. Concomitant medication's included sertraline hydrochloride (ZOLOFT), diazepam (VALIUM), hydrocodone bitartrate, paracetamol (VICODIN), cholesterol (CHOLESTEROL) taken for an unspecified indication and Unknown product: Some kind of stomach pill, does not know, it is the size of caraway seed in rye bread. Regarding concomitant medications caller reported she has no idea. She is taking products that the drug store puts a bubble pack for her. She was taking high blood pressure but her blood pressure was never high, it always ran on the low side; but they started giving her that when she had a pacemaker and defibrillator 2-in-1 installed back about 6 years ago. Otherwise unknown. Cholesterol meds but those numbers are all under control. She has been having trouble; so she thinks this is the last months she is getting her meds after that she thinks she is stopping everything. There's 5 or 6 meds in the morning and 2 at night, one is cholesterol from #. She cannot provide further information for her concomitant products as she is blind-Lots/NDCs/Expiries: Not provided, She cannot provide further information for her concomitant products as she is blind. With the old flu vaccines with the live viruses she was always coming down with the flu after getting the injections. Patient was not diagnosed with COVID-19 prior to the COVID vaccine and since the vaccination. Patient did not receive other vaccine within 4 weeks prior to the COVID vaccine. Patient did not visit emergency room or physician office. Adverse reaction was very bad: Started out with pretty bad headache around noontime, 12:00 on 29May2021 with the most severe part of event starting probably about 22:00. From there it went to severe chills and temperature. Then she went to move her left arm where she had gotten the shot and couldn't move it; she tried to move her fingers and make a fist but couldn't do it; the arm was paralyzed. Then her shoulder blades started hurting like hell, like incredible. If she had a gun she would have put it to her head. Then where the neck connects to the body, collar bones she guessed; in between like if she had an adam's apple it would be on both sides of those bones that are right beside the neck, they started hurting like hell. The paralyzed arm the pain coming from that was incredible; then the pain went down to both hips and her back too; but back wasn't as severe as the bones. All of Saturday, 29May2021 into Sunday, 30May2021 she was unable to get out of bed. This whole thing just intensified, she had nobody there; she lives in senior housing, they are confined to their quarters, to their apartments, the whole thing. She did not have access to anyone, had problems with her phone with no dial tone, nothing. Finally on Sunday, 30May2021 early evening she was able to, she would say, slither out of bed on her back and drop her feet over the edge of the mattress so those are kind of like on the floor. Her wheelchair is next to her; she has to get her upper body upright to be in seated position to be able to get into the wheelchair which was damn near impossible to do. She never knew that kind of pain existed. She was then able to get into the bathroom and use that. She had nothing to drink because obviously if you drink have to urinate and use the bathroom there was no way she was going to go through that again. She thought at that time she might as well go and unlock the door so if an ambulance does come they can haul her to the hospital or they could retrieve her body. She was totally convinced she was going to die on Sunday night into Monday morning, 30May2021-31May2021. She was up until 04:30 on Monday morning, 31May2021 because she was so scared if she fell asleep she would pass away in her sleep. The pain she could not describe how bad that was. That was Monday morning, 31May2021, all of this interim information she is discussing here; basically she was a total mess until it started backing off on Wednesday, 02Jun2021. She was told by the commission for the blind, that they were able to set up the appointment with # because she was due for in-home inoculation with J&J but when they had trouble with that it was pulled and the appointments were cancelled. The commission for the blind took it upon themselves to set up appointment for her Pfizer Covid Vaccine which was given at # on 8 #. #-that was where her Pfizer Covid Vaccine was administered. She did not call anyone or go to the doctor, emergency room or hospital; she has life alert but thought it was in God's hands so if he takes her he takes her. She did not call her daughter. She did call her doctor the early part of last week; he wants her to have a blood test to check for antibodies to see how much of the vaccine is in her or how much she is covered. Once he sees those numbers he says maybe she should get the J&J Covid Vaccine, but if she already got the Pfizer Covid Vaccine and with the J&J trouble with that too, that does not even make sense. She asked for information about that. She was due for a physical about a week ago but her daughter was unable to take her to her physical appointment because she had to take granddaughter to hospital because granddaughter has a hole in her heart and they had to do some testing on her. The patient underwent lab test which included body temperature of 108 degree on 29May2021. The outcome of events were unknown. Information about lot/Batch has been requested.

I had no issues with 1st dose. After taking the 2nd dose, I played golf afterwards. By the end of the round, I was having pain in my left foot. The pain got worse to where I couldn't walk on it. The pain went up my leg to my knees. The next day, I went to the Ortho Indi facility. They did an x-ray on me that indicated that there was no structural damage to cause pain. The doctor recommended me to put on a boot that go up to my knees and to ice it. I did that from Wednesday through Sunday. The pain went away. Every now and then I would get a sharp pain in my left foot, but then it goes away.

A 78-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), at same age, dose 2 via an unspecified route of administration on 09Jun2021 (Batch/Lot Number: EW0182; Expiration Date: 31Aug2021) as DOSE 2, SINGLE for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included ongoing Borderline multiple myeloma (Borderline Multiple myeloma for 10-15 years), ongoing Monoclonal gammopathy, covid-19 from Mar2020, Severe allergies, ongoing having a lot of immunology problems going on/ immunocompromised, sarcoidosis from 1970, Russian flu, 5 episodes of anaphylaxis, had 9-10 episodes of total body hives, has been resuscitated twice, B cell blood malignancy, allergic to over 30 drugs and lingering COVID symptoms: dry cough, muscle and joint pain, headache, dizziness, and diarrhea. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. Patient previous received hepatitis vaccines and TB for immunization and experienced did not respond/ nonresponsive, received Swine Flu for immunization and received first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number: EW0173, expiry: 31Aug2021), on 19May2021 (at the age of 78-year-old) as single for COVID-19 immunisation and experienced high fever, joint pain, some weakness in her legs/severe muscle weakness, headache, nausea, she was very ill / She said she was pretty sick for 10 days, diarrhea and muscle pain. The patient experienced dizzy, and severe muscle weakness, and pain/ weakness in legs, both on 10Jun2021 with serious criteria of disability, diarrhea, and had a fever of 102 for 5 days on 10Jun2021. Her immunologist cleared her for the vaccine because she has an unsettling allergy history. He did an immunology review of her allergies and prior vaccination problems before determining if she could get the COVID vaccine. He wrote her a letter that said she had to get the vaccine in a room with an IV ready and the defibrillator ready as well. Her immunologist thought it was prudent she try the first dose. She did have COVID already in 2020. She ended up in the emergency room from the vaccine. She was reticent to get the second dose because she had barely recovered from the first dose when she was due for her second dose. The second dose reaction was different. The day she got the second dose 09Jul2021, she got home okay without problem and went to bed. When she got up in the morning she had trouble getting out of bed. She had difficulty walking. She said she had a severe bilateral leg and sacral pain to the point where she had difficulty walking (10Jun2021). She also said there was numbness in her leg, swelling in her "sacrum," and really horrible radiating pain down both of her legs, front and back. She was fine the day she received the shot, but had great difficulty getting out of bed the next day. She said she still could not drive because she was still dizzy and nauseated. She added that she had headache, nausea, and diarrhea. She said she had on and off diarrhea for 6 or 7 days, and couldn't keep anything down without having it. She said she had severe joint pain, severe muscle weakness, and pain, and had a fever of 102 for 5 days (from 10Jun2021 to 15Jun2021). On the 5th day of her having fever, she said she was struggling to put one foot in front of the other in terms of walking. She said she was also starting to feel as if she was paralyzed. She was having troubles trying to walk normally since there was weakness in her legs. She also said she did not have any appetite. She spent a lot of time in bed, sleeping, and had troubles staying awake. She said she had a bad headache. She said she called 911, and went to the hospital. She stayed there for 2 days. She said it was very unpleasant. She also had neurological problems as well such as extreme difficulty in walking, standing up, and profound leg weakness. However, she said that her neurologist assured her that it would go away within 4 to 5 weeks. She said it has already been 5 weeks since her 2nd dose, but she was still not feeling well. She was improving, but not well. She said she was physically not much better. She was having severe bilateral leg and sacral pain. Her sacrum was hot and swollen so she called the ambulance. She went to the ER because she had difficulty walking. She went to the ER. After five days of the second dose she still had a fever and trouble walking. The ER did multiple scans including a CAT scan of her abdomen and pelvis, an x-ray of her pelvis, and MRI of her upper and lower spine. She also had blood cultures and multiple lab work done. They were trying to rule out Guillain-Barre. She was in the ER for 2 days. She was very sick. The second day she was in the ER they told her she could go home. She thought it was because they were busy. No one explained to her the results of her tests or what was going on. Once her fever was done they didn't have to deal with her anymore. They sent her home when she was still sick with leg pain, trouble walking, and still had diarrhea. She was still nauseated, and was just eating jello. It is week 5 and she is really physically not much better. She can't drive because she was still dizzy and nauseated. She has leg pain, trouble sleeping, and muscle weakness in her legs. She is not recovered from the second dose. She thought she was going to die from it. It took a lot to call 911 especially as a nurse, but the numbness and pain in her legs was really severe. She had such weakness that she had trouble standing up and navigating through her apartment without falling down. She had made slight improvement. She mentioned that she had the flu back in 1988, so she felt very ill, and was in the hospital for 2 weeks. She was a long haul COVID patient who is enrolled in a long haul COVID program. She has been sick for a year and a half now since having COVID. She got COVID in Mar2020, and did not recover well. that is one of the reasons why they delayed her vaccination. She had to do prednisone during that time, and had to wait 6 weeks after completing the Prednisone to get the vaccine. Her baseline was a subnormal temperature of 96.1 because of her immunology issue. So 102 is really high for her. She had lingering COVID symptoms, and was a long haul patient. She had a cyclic problem with dry cough, muscle and joint pain, headache, dizziness, and diarrhea. She would have it bad for 7 days, and then recover a couple of days, and then it repeats itself. She couldn't drive because she was too dizzy and weak to drive. It was not safe to drive. She didn't have enough strength in legs to stop the car. She was seen by a neurologist several days after her emergency room visit. He examined her, and asked her reaction to the Pfizer vaccine. He said he had other patients with similar outcomes. She was immunocompromised . She has had borderline Multiple myeloma for 10-15 years. She has Monoclonal gammopathy, MGUS, she had it for a while. There are periods of time where her protein is elevated making her borderline for myeloma. She has had a couple rounds of prednisone to suppress the protein. She has a positive ANC. She has a multitude of issues. She was diagnosed with sarcoidosis in 1970 bust is in remission. She is tested regularly for sarcoidosis. She thinks she might be having a gallbladder attack now. In the past, she has been a non responder to vaccines. She got out of healthcare for that reason. She did not respond to hepatitis vaccines. She doesn't have NDC/lot/expiration for those vaccines. The infectious disease doctor at the time told her she shouldn't be a nurse for that reason because it put her at risk for hepatitis. She was also nonresponsive to TB. She doesn't have NDC/lot/expiration to any of the ones she has been non responsive to. Last time she was vaccinated she had Swine Flu. She was having a lot of immunology problems going on. The doctor recommended her not get a flu vaccine. It was later discovered that she was a non responder to hepatitis and TB. She has had no flu vaccine since swine flu in the 70s. In 1988 she had the flu, and was in hospital for two weeks and almost died from that. One of the doctors she worked with died from flu. He was a surgeon. He died so she thought she was going to. She barely squeezed by. She was allergic to over 30 drugs'. No information on those drugs provided. She has had 5 episodes of anaphylaxis. She had been resuscitated twice. She has had 9-10 episodes of total body hives. The COVID vaccine knocked her down to 0. She has had to cancel her last 5 weeks of life. She was homebound. She couldn't get out of bed and get dressed. When she had COVID in Mar2020, she had an antibody tested 3 months later and 6 months later that both showed no antibodies. She has a B cell blood malignancy, and the b cells pump up the immune system. So she wasn't surprised she didn't have antibodies. Events caused emergency room visit and physician office visit. The outcomes of events dizzy, severe muscle weakness, and pain/ weakness in legs, She said she had a severe bilateral leg and sacral pain to the point where she had difficulty walking, nausea, diarrhea, had a fever of 102 for 5 days were recovering while other events were unknown.; Sender's Comments: Based on the information in the case report and a plausible temporal relationship, a possible causal relationship between the events "dizziness and muscular pain" and suspect drug BNT162B2 cannot be excluded. The impact of this report on the benefit/risk profile of the Pfizer product is evaluated as part of Pfizer procedures for safety evaluation, including the review and analysis of aggregate data for adverse events. Any safety concern identified as part of this review, as well as any appropriate action in response, will be promptly notified to regulatory authorities, Ethics Committees, and Investigators, as appropriate.

Medical history included COVID-19 in Sep2020 and her primary symptoms were different than the typical symptoms, she had the fog, lightheadedness, and dizziness, she healed up pretty good, but she would occasionally have a bout with it. Concomitant medication included colecalciferol (D3, Brand: Nature Bounty, lot number: 506697-01, expiry: Sep2023) taken for immunity. Additional vaccines administered on same date of the Pfizer Suspect were none. History of all previous immunization with the Pfizer vaccine considered as suspect was none. Prior vaccinations within 4 weeks were none. Back in probably 1958 she had a reaction to the Polio vaccine for immunization. She didn't remember the symptoms and they said to stay away from it. She had shingles vaccine for immunization and had no problem. The patient did not have lot number or expiry for the Polio Vaccine. She didn't have lot and expiry for the Shingles vaccine. She got the Shingles vaccine in 2019 because she had a friend that had shingles and it wouldn't go away. Her friend had not gotten the shingles vaccine. The patient's friend recommended that patient get the shingles vaccine. She had the opportunity to get the first vaccine on 11Feb2021 and she asked her doctor if she should do it with her having continued symptoms. The doctor said yes and for her to take Zinc and D3. So that is what she did. Every day since she got the vaccine she had fog, lightheadedness, and dizziness in Feb2021 worse than when she had COVID. She was fine the first 24 to 30 hours. When she woke up the next day in Feb2021 she was dizzy again. Then it has gone off and on. She can't even go grocery shopping without holding onto the cart an begin fearful. When she sat she was fine. She imagined she had fatigue. She had never had so many naps. The patient clarified that she lay down because of dizziness. The patient asked how does that relate to her getting the second one. That was the first one and they said the second one is worse. She is a caregiver and it can't get worse. They said the first shot is 85% effective is that enough and asked if that last for very long. She used to be 5 foot 2 inches. She saw her doctor on 25Feb2021 and doctor thought she should still have the vaccine. she was still leery. The 26Feb2021 is a better day, but she had felt real promise before. She took supplements. She thought she read that you shouldn't take anything for immunity. The patient asked if the zinc and D3 is considered for immunity because that is what the doctor told her to take it for. She had to cut the zinc in half because it made her terribly sick in 2021. It was 50mg, but since she was cutting it in half she is taking 25mg per day. She did not have any test or bloodwork since the vaccine. She wished the doctor would have done something when she messaged doctor on 25Feb2021 on app. She would feel better if someone else said she should get it. The events did not required a visit to emergency room. The action taken in response to the events for zinc was dose reduced. The outcome of the events was unknown. No follow up attempts are possible. No further information is expected.

Concomitant medications were none. On an unspecified date in Jan2021 the patient experienced dementia (she had a bit of dementia right now, which she also had before getting the vaccine) and her feet felt like they were numb, like neuropathy (maybe she had that, it had never been checked). Since 19Jan2021 the patient could not walk, had difficulty in walking. She was using a cane as she did not want to fall, she weighed 200 lbs and her partner would never be able to get her up if she fell. She was able to walk with the cane. The patient said that there had been no other treatment for her difficulty in walking and it seemed to get better. The initial caller (patient's partner) said she had the shot too on 18Jan2021 and did not have those symptoms, she was not the one who was sick, she did not know what else was going on in her partner's body, they did not think the shot caused it. The patient said she was supposed to be on a sleep apnea machine but she could not get in to the doctor to get the machine checked, it needed a test to be rechecked but they could not get in to do it because of everything that is going on. The patient was scheduled to get the second dose on 08Feb2021 at 10:00AM. Difficulty in walking was improving. The other events outcome was unknown.

Felt fine the day of event, during the night she felt like she had a heavy head, but when she woke up around 8:00 and she realized that something was very wrong, she could not sit up due to nausea and the room spinning. She texted her daughter who is a nurse and got there about 1:00 PM, she was still in bed. When she tried to sit her up she felt like she was going to throw up. She put her legs over to the side of the bed, and she felt like somebody was pushing her with her daughter over a cliff, in a tornado and on a Ferris wheel. She started vomiting and having diarrhea. She had heard about an epley maneuver and after a time she sat her up again and still had the previous feeling of going off a mountain in a tornado. She did the epley maneuver and tilter her head to the left and was still very dizzy but not as bad. She then tilted her head to the right and it was not as bad. Things started to settle down and eventually she was able to get up, still nauseated but 90% better. She was able to go to the restroom with her daughter's help. She stayed in the bed all that day and finally in the evening was abler to keep food down. She limited her distance to the bed to the bathroom. Her doctor was notified and called in some nausea and vertigo medicine (meclizine), which he did and only took 2 doses of that. The next morning she went up and down the stairs to make sure she was able to. She was very, very cautious but each day has been better. On 2/2/21 she called and got an APT with ENT but will not see him in a couple of weeks. They are going to send a therapist tomorrow to evaluate her for the vertigo. She is scheduled for the 2nd vaccine on 2/11/21. Saw her internist today and he evaluated her and did 2 blood tests and sent the referral for the therapist to come tomorrow.

I am taking a blood thinner. I was taking the other one, but they told me to look the other one (BYSTOLIC). It (BYSTOLIC) is a new drug I would say."). The patient previously received the first dose of the bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 MRNA VACCINE) for COVID-19 immunization on an unknown date and experienced adverse event ("no problem, nothing happened, there were minor things here and there"). On an unspecified date in Feb2021, the patient began to hallucinate (medically significant), dizzy (non-serious), and bed nightmare (non-serious).

The clinical course was reported as follows: The patient stated, "I took the virus vaccination shot (clarified as COVID 19 vaccine). The first one, there was no problem, nothing happened, there were minor things here and there. The second one I took was just this past Sunday. Something weird happened not right away, not the first day but probably it was second day, second or the third day, I am pretty sure I am not sure exactly, I think. I was not keeping track of all of that." The patient began to hallucinate; and when she got out of her bed, she suddenly had a feeling that she should look back. The patient stated that she looked back and there was her deceased sister (who died 37 years ago; according to the patient) and her daughter who was still alive; both were looking at her. The patient further reported the following: "They remained in my bed beside me. Okay, I ignored it and thought it was kind of funny because I know that my daughter is in (place name) and my sister is deceased. So, I am having a bed nightmare or something, so I ignored it. Then next thing it happened for a few days and then the dog that we just had euthanized, my daughter (name) had cancer and it was euthanized and what happened is, I was sitting on my sofa and I have seen the dog come out of my bedroom going to the bathroom but only the back of her and she disappeared. Then I spent the night at my other daughter's house and somewhere in the middle of the night I was awake in my something and I woke up and I looked over into my sistert's dining room and there was my brother standing there looking at me and there was two of his children sitting at the table also. I thought this is getting a little weird." The patient reported that nothing like this happened before. The patient wanted to understand the event because she "never had been dizzy from my drug, taking the drug (unspecified medication) that made me dizzy but that not the same thing what is going on here."

Prior Vaccinations (within 4 weeks) If applicable, list any other vaccinations within four weeks prior to the first administration date of the suspect vaccine(s) was none. Family medical history relevant to AE(s) was none and she is getting close to obesity if she keeps eating like this. The patient previously took first dose of bnt162b2 on 11Jan2021, (Lot Number: EK9231, Expiry Date: Unknown, this is not on the CDC vaccine record card) via Injection administered in Arm Left for covid-19 immunisation and experienced Left arm was real sore after first dose injection. The historical vaccine included shingles vaccine. The patient experienced blood pressure/ up to 210/110 mmHg on 20Feb2021 felt chills/chills on 31Jan2021, felt yucky on 31Jan2021, not walking well on 20Feb2021 , felt sick/sick as a dog on 20Feb2021, feeling nauseous on 20Feb2021, threw up like crazy on 20Feb2021, funny feeling around her head/feeling really funny on 20Feb2021, face usually gets red when her blood pressure is high and it she is not red at this time on 20Feb2021, vertigo on 20Feb2021, felt the really funny feeling going up her throat on an unspecified date in 2021, her heart rate has been wanting to be a little higher than usual on an unspecified date in 2021 and her balance was not quite right on an unspecified date in 2021. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included blood pressure measurement: 220/110 mmHg (normal value: 120/80) on 20Feb2021, computerised tomogram: doctor mentioned 3 little places on 20Feb2021, electrocardiogram: unknown results on 20Feb2021, heart rate: little higher than usual on an unspecified date in 2021, laboratory test: unknown results on 20Feb2021. Patient received both dose of the Pfizer covid vaccine on 11Jan2021 and 30Jan2021. On the next day after the 2nd dose, she felt chills. 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.

Patient previously received flu vaccine in 2009 for immunization and had a reaction. She had the Flu vaccine for many years and the one she had trouble with was a vaccine without preservatives. On 06Mar2021, seven hours after receiving first dose of vaccination, in the evening patient noticed that her mouth started to burn, accidentally pinched her arm and the pain was more than expected and it left a bruise. 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. There was also burning pain in the face, in the arm and her neck-chest area, which caused great mental distress, a huge emotional toll, specifically being upset and devastated, lack of sleep, and weight lost due to lost of appetite with 5 pounds being lost within 2 weeks of these side effects. 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. On 20Mar2021, that Saturday night, as she was walking, she felt that her legs were heavy and felt like they were weighted, which made it difficult for her to walk. It lasted for about 20-30 minutes before subsiding. Last Monday, 22Mar2021 she really started to notice the burning pain on her lower lips, specifically in the space between the lip and the teeth. There was also burning pain in the face, in the arm and her neck-chest area. She described it as not constant but comes and goes. On 25Mar2021, she consulted with her primary again in which she was recommended not to get the 2nd dose of the vaccine and her side effects lean to a more neurologic cause. The doctor mentioned that the vaccine was still too new. These side effects has caused great mental distress, a huge emotional toll, specifically being upset and devastated, lack of sleep, and weight lost due to lost of appetite with 5 pounds being lost within 2 weeks of these side effects. She said that has not been fun. it has been horrible, and she would choose dying over this burning sensation in the mouth. Patient visited physician Office, 3 times and allergist did it virtually. 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. Then she took Flonase, twice, on the 17th and 18th. Its over the counter. Lot number: TE8G, caller doesnt have box to provide UPC, stated there was another number of 0140592, expiry Mar2021. 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. Therapeutic measures taken in response to the events included Benadryl, Zyrtec, Tylenol, Flonase, Afrin spray, clindamycin, magic mouthwash. Outcome of the events "mouth started to burn/burning in mouth" and "sinus issues" were ongoing-not recovered and for all other events were unknown at the time of report.

Well like I said, I woke up and my arm after the shot was sore. The joint was bothering me, and I thought that it was a side effect of the shot and after about a week I had a little bit of movement but still pain. So later in May I finally called the orthopedic doctor. I got an MRI and he said it was a significant tear to the rotator cuff. I did not do anything so I do not know what or how it happened. I just figured it was the COVID vaccine, although the doctor thought it was highly unlikely. I had surgery to repair it on May the 20th 2021, at local hospital. I came home that night after the surgery. The doctor gave me tramadol for the pain as well. I will have another MRI next week, in mid-July 2021.

An 80-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number: EK9231), via an unspecified route of administration on the left arm on 16Jan2021 13:45 at a single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included ongoing diabetic and previously took the flu shot one time and started having right arm pain across her chest over to the left side right after getting it. So she don't take it anymore and takes a bunch of herbs. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. The patient reported that she has a disease, amyloidosis on an unspecified date, where there is a build up of protein in the body. She didn't know that there is protein in the shot and doesn't know the affects it has with her condition. She found out the day after getting the first Pfizer C-19 (clarified as COVID-19) shot that there was protein in it. The patient wanted to know the affects it has with her condition and if it will affect her getting the second dose and if it covers the new virus and booster shot. The patient got the vaccine on 16Jan2021 and found out about the protein in it the next day when it came across her phone. The patient received it at a school, where they vaccinated 1,169 residents. They text her to inform her she could get the vaccine. They also have the health department there. No other vaccines given that day or 4 weeks prior.

Has pings up and down her legs, they are sharp pings that lasted through on to Tuesday. She took 1 Advil to help and as of yesterday (as reported) no pings. Her hands still hurt, because this condition forms chains in the body and the chains are around the hands like carpel tunnel. The protein normally should leave the body and with this condition it doesn't and it leaves chains. When she was diagnosed with it they took a spot off the ankle to test it, the Dermatologist did and sent it off. No further details provided. Wants to know the affects of her getting the second shot. No further details provided. The outcome of the events amyloidosis and hands hurt was not recovered, the events felt a sweep over her stomach up her body and up to her head and sharp pings up and down legs was recovering, and the event eyes swollen was unknown.

The night after receiving dose 1 of the vaccine, she didn't want to eat dinner, was starting to spit up saliva, and noted a new headache, and asked her daughter to sleep with her that night considering she was feeling poorly. She was restless all night, and then at ~5am her L arm began to twitch; she was still alert at this time but didn't realize her arm was moving. Shortly after this she lost consciousness, her eyes rolled back in her head, and she developed a frank GTC seizure. Her daughter called an ambulance, and by the time she was on the way to the hospital, she was awake and alert again. At the hospital, she was initially talking and able to answer most questions appropriately. She was noted to be afebrile, hemodynamically stable, without an O2 requirement, though with tachycardia to the 110s. She was found to have a leukocytosis to ~16, thrombocytosis to ~550, and LDH elevated in the 600s. Over the following day, her mental status declined and she became agitated and disoriented to place/time. CT chest revealed b/l multifocal pneumonia, for which she was started on pip-tazo. She underwent MRI brain (DWI sequence only) which did not reveal any obvious CVA. LP was performed on 1/29 at ~10PM; as far as we can tell, she had only received pip-tazo for antibiotics at this point. CSF studies revealed 220 WBCs (14% PMNs, 76% lymphs, 10% monos), 14 RBCs, Glu 59, Prot 145; GS 2+ WBCs, no orgs; india ink stain negative; Cx pending at time of transfer. Given concern for bacterial or viral meningoencephalitis she was transitioned to vancomycin/ceftriaxone/acyclovir. Patient was then transferred to another Hospital for further management. Micro was all negative or pending at the time of transfer. Shortly after admission to hospital she was intubated. Spine MRI was notable for longitudinally extensive transverse myelitis. All infectious workup has been negative with just two more pending studies for tuberculosis; autoantibody panel pending. She is now able to follow commands with eyes and mouth, but has not been able to move her arms or legs. We do not have high suspicion that this syndrome is related to the vaccine, given that progressive neurological symptoms started the week before vaccine, but thought it prudent to report given the time course.

Saw something on the tv that rattled him to his bones. It had been found that people who had Covid virus previously and then got the shot may not need a second shot. He is trying to flush that out to whether or not that is something or not that she should be considering. They have the card to go back to the same place for the second shot and they are trying to figure if they need to set up an appointment now.

On the 5th day after receiving the vaccine I became dizzy. The next morning I became very dizzy and went to the hospital. They admitted me to Emergency because my blood pressure was extremely high-they said later it was about 187/ ?. While I was there the blood pressure went up over 200 to 214/81. I was dizzy and nausious and shaking because I became very cold even though the nurse covered me with 3 blankets. After I left the hospital it took until after I got a prescription for meclizine filled and took one at 7PM before I was able to get the blood pressure down to a normal range - 130/64. Today I am still taking meclizine as prescribed and am still slightly dizzy. I do not know if this was related to the vaccine or not.

Clinical course was reported as follows. She mentioned that she was fine for 20-30 minutes to an hour after she got home. That afternoon, she noticed that her bowel movement was regular, constant, and repeating which was not normal and would typically indicate SIBO (Small intestine bowel overflow) in which the colon empties everything. She mentioned that this was indicative of her gluten allergy. She reported having had bowel movements all afternoon which is a common allergic reaction she has to plants like lectin and gluten especially due to the irritable bowel system-her whole bowel system will empty and she will have to replace 2 days worth of food. With this event starting 01Mar2021 her bowels just kept emptying and emptying. During dinner while she was eating and watching tv, her heart started to pound (a rapid heartbeat), her ears started to ring (a pounding in her ears), she had pressure in her jaw, chest, head, ears, and allover, she had high pressure, and a choking episode in which her throat tickled, and dizziness that she couldn't get up. She took hot water for the tickling sensation and took one aspirin for the other symptoms, but she still did not feel very well. She went to bed at 9pm but couldn't sleep due to high adrenal stimulance, she only slept like 2-3 hours long which she can get from Novocaine with her teeth. She got up 3 times and excreted a cup of urine per time. In the morning, she woke up and excreted 1 cup of urine more than what she usually does. She got herself weighed and had a weight of 109lbs versus the normal 122lbs which indicated that she was really dehydrated so she took her fluids and ate breakfast. Other than this, she mentioned that she got up today and felt fine and feels that in 2 days she will be fine. She felt pretty good and she was going to run but did not dare burn any more calories or fluids so she is sitting still and taking it easy. Regarding outcome of event she reported the pounding pressure like high blood pressure are better, fine# she had a normal breakfast# she can get around and do whatever she needs around the house except she needs now to spend the day recouping from the dehydration so she needs pay attention to what she eats and drinks. She mentions that she runs 3-4 miles a day and tries to be active for her age. She is asking if she can take the 2nd dose in 3 weeks. She is unsure if this is an allergic reaction or something psychological. The outcome of the event was reported as recovering.

Patient said to doctor because she was breathing hard and she said the doctor did this to her by giving these pills that don't agree with her. She told she can not take this medication, anyway the doctor said to patient husband go home and get her medication, and he said so now you are medicating yourself. By the next day patient was ready, she was breathing normally and was ready to go home but late afternoon they said patient should go home but she still had those white patches but they were not as prominent as what they were.

The morning after Mom's first dose of the Pfizer shot, Dad woke up and found Mom lying on the floor next to the bed. Mom said, "I can't move my arm." Dad called paramedics who checked her. They said her vital signs were normal and left. On 2/9/21 in the morning my da awoke to see that Mom had large amounts of bubbly saliva pouring from her mouth onto her pillow. Dad called paramedics, who said this was a diabetic reaction. Mom had NEVER had anything happen like this before. Mom was very sleepy, could not be aroused, and made only gurgling noises. She was admitted to the hospital for care and therapy. She pulled her own IV out. Mom had to be restrained in the hospital and sedated, due to confusion and worsening dementia. By 2/18 when we spoke by phone mom's speech was abnormally slow and very repetitive. "I'm very tired today" was spoken many times. In morning time mom was able to follow basic conversation. Not so later in the day. Mom came home from rehab on 2/26/21. She was able to walk steadily and independently at home after her therapy. After a week or so, Mom began hitting the in-home caregiver. Dad's presence would calm her. In a short time Mom seemed not to know dad anymore, and would hit him and the caregiver when they helped her. She also pulled all covers off the bed and pulled clothes out of the closet, throwing them all over the room during the night. Mom was usually walking around the house during each night. On 4/16/21 Mom and dad were napping sitting up on the couch in the morning. Mom fell forward and hit her head on the hearth. Dad and caregiver gave first aid and called paramedics, who took her to the ER. Mom came home on 4/17/21. On 4/18/21 Mom pulled her catheter out in the early morning. In the afternoon Mom's appearance was concerning, so Dad called paramedics. They said that Mom's BP had dropped very low and took her to the ER. Mom was combative the next day in the hospital. Dr. adjusted her medications periodically to ensure that mom's care would be manageable when she would eventually be sent home. Minimal therapy was done due to dementia. By 5/3/21 doctor said that Mom is bed bound and needing total care. Her blood sugar spiked high despite special diet. Staff waiting for insulin order from doctor. 5/4/21 Doctor called Dad to say that Mom had died during the night.

Patient is an 80 y/o right handed female who is totally independent at baseline who received her Pfizer vaccine out of the country (1st dose 2/19/21, 2nd dose 3/12/21). She was reactive to both shots, reporting arthralgias, headache, low grade fever, chills. She had a rise in blood pressure later during the day of her shot as well as the next day (up to 180/70, from baseline of 130/70). She also had an episode of epistaxis several days after her first shot. She traveled independently out of the country on 3/31/21 to visit her son on a leisure trip. On 4/5/21 she had headache, dizziness/lightheadedness, and did not feel well, and her systolic BP was 198, after which she took additional 40 mg of lisinopril. Her BP subsequently decreased to systolic BP of 130 mm Hg on 4/5/21, but over the next few days she had labile BP with a range of BP of 125 to 171/ 58 - 68. She was meticulous in checking and recording her BP several times a day, and she increased her lisinopril dose to 40 mg po qd from 20 mg po qd given the higher than usual blood pressure range. On 4/10/21 her BP was as follows: 6:30 am, 148/60 (she took her daily lisinopril 20 mg po); 11:30 am: 132/52; 3 pm: 171/69 (she took additional lisinopril 20 mg po) after which her systolic BP decreased to 130. Then around 6:20 pm the same day (4/10/21), she had acute onset of headache, vomiting, left sided weakness, SBP 220, and was witnessed to have rapid change in mental status. There was no antecedent trauma to the head. EMTs were called immediately and she had loss of consciousness during the ambulance ride to the ED, after about 20 minutes of symptom onset, with agonal breathing and bradycardia to the 40s, but never lost her pulse. Upon arrival to the ED out of the country, her Glascow Coma Scale (GCS) was 6, she was rapidly intubated and stabilized. Head CT demonstrated massive intraparenchymal hemorrhage (140 cc) within the R temporal parietal and occipital lobes, with cerebral edema and 14 mm midline shift, associated with small subdural hematoma and small intraventricular hemorrhage within the temporal horn and body of the R lateral ventricle. They reported hyperdense "spot sign" within the intraparenchymal hematoma compatible with active hemorrhage, no evidence of venous thrombosis, no masses, no arteriovenous malformations. She had 2.5 mm aneurysm right that was thought to be incidental finding unrelated to her event. She was taken emergently to the OR on 4/10/2021 for decompressive R hemicraniectomy, which she underwent successfully with minimal blood loss. She had no coagulopathy and her platelets and hemoglobin were normal. She remained in the Neuro ICU for 3 weeks. She received a tracheostomy two weeks after her presentation, and was weaned off the ventilator. She is breathing spontaneously after 5 weeks from presentation. She remains in coma or minimally conscious state, with GCS score of 5-6 as of 5/13/2021.

The patient had her first COVID 19 vaccination, on 28Jan2021, about 3PM and she will get the booster on 22Feb2021, but it seemed like she had kind of vertigo on 29Jan2021, this just happened in the last hour, all of sudden she felt unbalanced, like her head was heavy, and she was holding onto things when she walked, She did call her primary doctor, he didn't think it had to do with the vaccine, so she thought to call and ask, she was fine, and then all of a sudden she started to get this kind of vertigo, he asked if her head was spinning, but it's not, it felt heavy and she has had vertigo before, a year ago, but she doesn't know. Her doctor told her to rest, so she was laying down, and when she lifted her head she could feel, it was not spinning, she knew she was not feeling balanced. When asked to clarify her question, states she wasn't sure this happening had anything to do with the vaccination, she called her primary care doctor and he thought it wasn't, had nothing to do with it, so she thought since she called, she would wait and talk to Pfizer in case, that other people have experienced the same thing. States she was hoping this agent could tell her it would go away in a little while, but her primary care doctor said it has nothing to do with it, but it may have to do with it, it was somewhat of a coincidence that was happened, and she was fine for 24 hours, all of a sudden she started to feel this whatever. States she did not need anything else at this time. Outcome of the event vertigo was not recovered and all other events was unknown. Follow-up attempts are completed. No further information is expected.

An 81-year-old female patient received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Solution for injection, Batch/lot number: EL3247), via an unspecified route of administration at left upper arm on 21Jan2021 08:00 at single dose for covid-19 immunization. Medical history included lymphoma from 2018. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. There were no additional vaccines administered on same date of the Pfizer. The patient previously took rituxan for lymphoma (Reported she had been in remission for a little over a year. She said she had received only 4 Rituxan infusions for the lymphoma before she went into remission). 12 hours post injection: she "experienced significant rigors and shaking, muscle and joint aches, her equilibrium was off at some point, she was tired, had generalized pain, and chills". She also confirmed feeling better. She stated she heard the the second dose of the vaccine caused more reaction than the first dose and would like to validate the information. She explained the first instance she experienced rigors was after a lymphoma treatment. She believed the rigors lasted "12 hours" but was not certain because she "fell asleep and got warmed". The patient felt great all day on 21Jan2021 after receiving her first COVID-19 Vaccine dose. She said almost exactly 12 hours later, she started to have rigors. She was shaking so hard that her hands and body were jerking. Her muscles and joints were hurting, her equilibrium was off, she ached all over, she had pain, felt tired, and she had chills. The rigors started first. She said she felt really cold at the same time, so she went to bed and covered up, trying to get warmed. She fell asleep for awhile, and then woke up and went to the bathroom. When she went to get out of bed to go to the bathroom, she stood up, and every bone and muscle in her body hurt. She said she was aching all over, and her equilibrium was off. She didn't feel like getting up, and finally went to sleep to get the rigors to stop. She felt cold all the time now, but the rest of her symptoms had improved. She said it seemed like the muscle in her right leg was still pretty sore. She said she recovered from the rigors completely. She had rigors once before when she had an infusion. She clarified the infusion was Rituxan. She said she had a reaction to her first treatment of Rituxan. She said she had rigors when the Rituxan infusion was first started. She was given a couple things (but she didn't know what those things were), and she stopped shaking. She said the infusion staff waited a few minutes and tried to restart the Rituxan infusion, but she would have rigors again. She said the infusion staff tried slowing down the Rituxan infusion rate, as well. She said the Rituxan infusion normally takes 2 hours, but after 8 hours, she had only got about 20% of the Rituxan infusion, before the Rituxan infusion was stopped. She stated she had 3 subsequent Rituxan infusions at later dates, and did not have any problems with those infusions. Her first dose of the COVID-19 Vaccine was administered high up in the muscle of her left arm, close to the shoulder joint. She said the COVID- 19 Vaccine injection didn't hurt, and her left arm never got sore. She said on 30Dec2020 she had lab work done for her oncologist. She went about every other month for blood work to make sure she was still in remission. She saw her oncologist on 06Jan2021, and her oncologist said her blood work looked pretty good and was better. She asked her oncologist about the COVID-19 Vaccine, and her oncologist said she definitely wanted her to get the COVID-19 Vaccine. Her next appointment with her oncologist was in Mar2021.

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.

About 7 minutes after eating the bar, she went into a severe reaction and ended up in the emergency room and stayed overnight. thankfully was at work). Reported having shingles vaccination in 2014 and had shingles 2-3 weeks later, can't remember details. States it was a mild case. NDC, lot, expiry unknown. She stated every flu shot she received, she has gotten the flu and only takes periodically. States she retired in 2017 and had to take in 2016 and 2015, she would have lost her job if she didn't take. It had been 5-10 years before that, and another 5-10 years before that. States she stays away from the flu shot. Concomitant medications included metoprolol ER from Jan 2016 for atrial tachycardia, SYNTHROID started about 15 years ago for low thyroid hormone, Simvastatin ongoing, started about a year ago for cholesterol slightly elevated, OCUVITE PreserVision(Ongoing) taking about 3 years for macular degeneration age related has not changed or gotten worse in 3 years, baby aspirin started Jan 2016 (Ongoing) as cardiologist thought it would be a good idea, Vitamin D3: taking for 3 years (ongoing) for bone health, calcium with magnesium been taking a long time. 5-10 years to prevent osteoporosis (ongoing), glucosamine chondroitin taking since late 1990s. about 20 years for joint health (ongoing), multivitamin taking since 1995 or 1996. about 25 years for general health, vitamin C about 3 years ago started with the Ocuvite (eye doctor though it was a good idea to take together. On April 28th2021 patient could not hear. She was deaf in right ear and the day before on April 27 it was like she woke up with pressure in both ears. It sounded like hell like she was in the airplane and by yawning she could not relieve the pressure and went to the doctor and was under treatment with steroids and antivirals and still deaf in right ear." She confirmed pressure is gone, but still deaf and under medical treatment with otolaryngology. She was kind of tossing whether to get the vaccine or not. First went to family doctor to see, didn't think she had an ear infection because no pain and was hoping maybe she would have wax in her ear, but ears were clean and no wax. So they sent her to an ear specialist and they did hearing test and she has pretty severe hearing loss in that ear. So she was still being treated. First the doctor put her on valacyclovir and methylprednisone for about 7 days and then that didn't seem to do anything and now she's getting dexamethasone injections into her middle ear. States she is due for one about lunch time. Pressure in both ears: patient reported has subsided, but then confirms it is a lasting effect comes and goes a little bit. Left ear is pretty much clear but right ear still has pressure and cannot hear and has not subsided. On an unknown date her equilibrium affected and stated has gotten slightly better, minuscule. Patient added she's pretty healthy and moves about, gardens takes care of business, goes to exercise class twice a week now partially participates because she gets dizzy from moving her head. Patient was treated with Valacyclovir: 1 gram tablet every 6 or 8 hours, states can't remember. Started 05MAY2021 for 7 days. Caller confirmed it did not help and she threw bottle away. Methylprednisone: 4 mg tablet by mouth started dose at every 4 or 5 hours, dose was a decreasing frequency of dose over 7 days. Confirmed she threw package away. Stated cortisone decreases irritation and inflammation. And Valacyclovir is an antiviral. Started dexamethasone injections last Thursday, 20 May 2021. Is scheduled to receive a dose today, will skip next week, and then one the following week, and then one the following week after that, states it is a series of four doses and then if that doesn't help she will have an MRI. Airborne: started taking about one week ago after first dexamethasone injection through tympanic membrane into middle ear. Relevant Tests: Hearing Test (Date: 05MAY2021)Result: pretty severe hearing loss in right ear, Test: Ear exam (Date: 03MAY2021; 05MAY2021) Result: Normal. Outcome for pain in extremity was recovered, for ear discomfort and deafness it was resolving, for hypoacusis and. equilibrium affected it was unknown. Reporter seriousness for pressure in both ears and equilibrium affected: Medically significant, Deafness right ear: Disabling, Arm soreness: non-serious Reporter causality: deafness in right ear: Causality: strong suspicion it's related to the vaccine, maybe not necessarily the vaccine itself, but her immune system reaction to the vaccine. Causality for pressure in both ear, arm soreness and equilibrium: related; Sender's Comments: Based on the current available information and the plausible drug-event temporal association, a possible contributory role of the suspect product BNT162B2 to the development of events such as deafness,balance disorder and ear discomfort cannot be totally excluded. The impact of this report on the benefit/risk profile of the Pfizer product is evaluated as part of Pfizer procedures for safety evaluation, including the review and analysis of aggregate data for adverse events. Any safety concern identified as part of this review, as well as any appropriate action in response, will be promptly notified to regulatory authorities, Ethics Committees, and Investigators, as appropriate.

Two days after patient's first vaccine@ about 4 pm, I could tell that something was wrong with her. Every day she and I play cards, but this day she was really struggling. She couldn't figure out where any of the cards went, and was missing every play. I tool her up to lay down. At about 6pm, her eyes looked really glassy and she was unable to speak clearly. Her words were very slurred, and her sentences did not make any sense. I called 911, and they came and took her to the ER. The doctors said that she had a small stroke. She was put on a low dosage of blood pressure medicine, and was hospitalized for 6 days to monitor her. During that time many tests were run on her. 2nd Vaccine- 2-24-21 Two hours after returning from getting the second vaccine, the patient went upstairs to go to the bathroom and she passed out onto the bathroom floor. Again, when talking to her, her words were slurred. She was very weak. I called 911 again. Initially they were not going to take her, but when she went to get up she fell back down. She was too weak to walk, so they took her to the ER again. She was released to go home that evening. Sher saw her primary doctor and was referred by her oncologist to see a hematologist. She endured a three month waiting period until she could be tested for APLS. She will go this Friday to find out the reslts of that test. Additionally, she saw her vascular neurologist, Dr. He looked at her scans and said it was NOT a stroke. He said that her body basically had a surge as a result of trying to fight off the vaccine. He said that the CAT scan that was done at the time she went to the ER the first time did NOT indicate signs of a new stroke, but that what they were seeing on the scans was from her past stroke. Dr. said that he saw no indication that she had another stroke and that her body was just reacting to the vaccine. He said that all of the symptoms that she had were all things that could happen because of the surge.

half cm tumor in her fallopian tube/1.5cm tumor in the fallopian tubes; Paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration; meningitis; Severe headache; eyes would move back and forth involuntarily; severe vertigo; This is a spontaneous report from contactable consumer (sister) from Medical Information Team. An 81-year-old female patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Solution for injection), via an unspecified route of administration at the age of 81-year-old in Jan2021 (Batch/Lot number was not reported) as single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included bladder cancer. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. Caller states ''My sister and I both received the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. My sister developed Paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration two weeks after receiving the Pfizer vaccine. They did find a half cm tumor in her fallopian tube. Her doctors have reported the side effect but at that time she was not fully diagnosed. They thought at that time it was meningitis .'' Caller wants to know if Meningitis or Paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration has been associated with the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. Response: Spoke from the attached document. These two disorders have not been listed as side effects associated with the vaccine. However we may not have the list of all the possible side effects associated with the vaccine. Caller was reporting side effects for her sister related to the Covid 19 vaccine. Her sister had received the Pfizer Covid 19 vaccine and 2 weeks later developed a disorder called Paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration. They had found a tumor in the fallopian tube that was a tiny half centimeter tumor. Said that the doctors had reported the side effects but at the time it was not yet diagnosed as paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration. At the time, they thought she had meningitis. The event happened about 2 weeks after the vaccine, so about 11Feb2021, was about 2 weeks before or 2 and a half weeks before 11Feb2021 that she got the vaccine. She was in the hospital 10 and a half weeks (about for 74 days). She contacted Pfizer, she believes in Mar2021. Since Feb2021 she had been in 3 different hospitals. They did send her some paperwork but she has not completed it yet. At that point in Mar2021 her diagnosis was meningitis. As it later turns out, it turned to a new diagnosis of the Paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration. Her sister lives in PRIVACY, she does not even know where she went for the vaccine. She hasn't filed the written report yet. She was not diagnosed with the Paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration until the very end, 10 days before she died. She died on 24Apr2021. Cause of death: They had removed her ovaries and fallopian tubes had the suspicion that this might have been the diagnosis without ever seeing the tumor. She had multiple CT scans (2021) and never saw the tumor until they removed the fallopian tubes. They found a 1.5cm tumor in the fallopian tubes which is what the cause of death was. She was calling to see if this has happened to anyone else. They say the tumor was the cause because it would have been so odd that it came on so suddenly, 2 weeks after the vaccine. The caller is terrified to get the vaccine, since she had bladder cancer. She had asked if anyone had reported this because that was the diagnosis at the time. They did not do an autopsy, probably because that was up to her brother in law and can understand why an autopsy was not done. They also say when her sister was having all of these bizarre symptoms, it was an auto immune reaction. She was perfectly fine and had come home from a bird watch. She had severe headache, eyes would move back and forth involuntarily in 2021. That never went away. She had severe vertigo in 2021, and it all happened in one day, it didn't go away. They did an immunoglobulin infusion treatment, she had very good treatment. They put her on steroids. The immunoglobulin treatment was for five days and nothing touched those symptoms. They had moved her from one hospital to a rehab facility in PRIVACY. The rehab doctor reported all of these symptoms to Pfizer. At that time, they were still calling it meningitis. He said that the elephant in the room was the vaccine. Felt the vaccine is not totally what caused it but accelerated what ever was going on with her, these bizarre disorders. Maybe this would have happened without the vaccine. They will never know. She wishes that someone can tell her whether or not she should get the vaccine. She asked her doctor who said he was not going to tell her to not get the vaccine. She was calling to see if this has happened to anyone else. They say the tumor was the cause because it would have been so odd that it came on so suddenly, 2 weeks after the vaccine. She had asked if anyone had reported this because that was the diagnosis at the time. The patient was hospitalized for events for 74 days. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of events. The patient died on 24Apr2021. An autopsy was not performed. The outcome of event half cm tumor in her fallopian tube/1.5cm tumor in the fallopian tubes was fatal. The outcome of events Paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration and meningitis was unknown. The outcome of other events was not recovered. Information on the lot/batch number has been requested.; Reported Cause(s) of Death: half cm tumor in her fallopian tube/1.5cm tumor in the fallopian tubes

An 81-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), dose 2 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 01Mar2021 (Batch/Lot Number: EN6205) (at the age of 81 years) as 2ND DOSE, SINGLE DOSE for COVID-19 immunisation.

Concomitant medications included metformin taken for an unspecified indication, start and stop date were not reported; atorvastatin taken for an unspecified indication, start and stop date were not reported; glimepiride (GLIMIPRIME) taken for an unspecified indication, start and stop date were not reported; omeprazole taken for an unspecified indication, start and stop date were not reported. Patient previously took modafinil (PROVIGIL). Patient previously received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 08Feb2021 14:30 (Batch/Lot Number: EL9264) (at the age of 81 years) as single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. Patient did not receive any other vaccines within 4 weeks prior to the COVID vaccine. Prior to vaccination, was the patient was not diagnosed with COVID-19. Since the vaccination, patient has not been tested for COVID-19. It was reported that patient experienced intense pain in upper thigh, both legs, sometimes unable to walk, general muscle weakness, began 48 hrs post-2nd vaccine (also reported as occurring on 10Mar2021 22:00). Became less in 24 hrs, became intense again in another 24 hrs, and has continued ever since. Patient cannot sleep at night. Patient clarified she had it ever since 48 hours after second dose on 01Mar2021 and it's very unpleasant and does not know what to do about it and wanted to report it. These did not happen immediately and after second vaccine, patient did not have any problem till 48 hours, 10 o'clock, she had it on Monday at 12:00 and at 10 o'clock in the evening on Wednesday, she started to get intense pain on right side, she could barely walk and she have never had pain there before and she tried to walk and she was 81, she goes to the bathroom frequently with bladder issues and that was hard and it went on all night. In the morning, she had it not only in right leg but upper side like above the knees but in the front not in the back of the leg and then the next day, when she woke up and then, she had it in the upper side in left leg and closer to the groin and more like around and didn't know what to do and she wasn't going to go to an emergency ward as she was 81 and she doesn't go around that easily. Patient called her doctor, and patient had pain pretty much all day and he said how was it now and told him that it was slightly better. He said more than likely it will go away but he kept saying these are the kind of side effects that they were reporting though flu like achiness was nothing like what she had, she have had the flu (history) and been achy (history) but this wasn't like that. This was intense pain and it kind of changed a little bit during the day but it was still there. Her doctor said, if it doesn't go away by tomorrow morning which was Friday, then make an appointment and come in to see her, she will do blood work or whatever. So, she got an appointment for 2:30, by noon, it was just gone totally gone like if it never had been there. She cancelled the appointment then yesterday she got it back again and she could hardly walk but it wasn't as intense, it was really painful and hard for her to walk and it was around both legs and she doesn't know what to make of that, she went to rheumatologist because she thought she might be having muscle pain in arms from something else, he did some blood work (unknown results), he couldn't make anything out of it and he said he will look at the blood work and he gave her kind of a steroid cream to rub on arm (treatment) which she thought she had a problem but months ago (consumer was not sure). Now she couldn't sleep last night, it was so uncomfortable, and she had to go to the bathroom several times and again it really hurts to walk. So, that was what happened to her and she would not call that achiness of the flu at all. Regarding treatment, patient took Tylenol, do take other medications but nothing unusual and take the same that she always have and by the way the intense pain was only in one leg for twelve to twenty hours and then all of a sudden it began in the left leg as well and slightly with different pace but still on. The one in the right leg was most intense, she could barely stand. For laboratory test, the 'BUN' test was outside of the parameters and after getting several tests he did, she wanted to see if she had some sort of rheumatoid thing and they are all in her record. This was not one of the typically adverse reactions that people reported at least according to what she read and according to aspects of it. The outcome of events pain, muscle pain in arms, and BUN abnormal was unknown while for other events was not recovered. No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information is expected.

Blood clots, strokes, death I believe that there were subtle unrecognized signs starting in March - off balance, slurred speech, confusion- thought to be diabetes related. I would have her check her sugar and it would be fine, but I dismissed it as a good thing that her sugar was ok. It didn?t cross my mind until the major strokes that it could be related to the vaccine. She had major strokes in May as a result of blood clots in heart and head. I strongly believe that her death is related to the vaccine. She was well, and had her diabetes under control, and three months after getting the vaccine, she was dead.

The patient was taking concomitant products creon because stomach and pancreas not cooperating with each other. In relation back up to brain thing drug for that is Amitriptyline. Began taking probably 12 years ago, 10 years ago at least. B12 was taking for memory, began taking probably 4 years ago courtesy of all the testing the general physician had done. The caller states she was lacking in so much and will be on this for the rest of life. Amitriptyline was supposed to take 10mg pill twice a day but don't take twice a day.

The patient had been dizzy ever since, it really feels more like she is just off balance. The patient can function, just an off-balance feeling. The patient read on the information sheet for BNT162B2 that dizziness could occur in the first 15 minutes. The patient was asking and wondering if this is a delayed reaction to the vaccine. This is why she thinks it could be a delayed reaction to the vaccine because she only took one pregabalin pill and it should be out of her system by now. The patient was just going back to the effect today (25Jan2021), the patient was not dizzy (as reported but also reported as not recovered), but she cannot walk, and she was little off balance. The patient was just wondering if that could be a side effect and if there was anything to be worried of. The action taken in response to the events for BNT162B2 was not applicable; and for pregabalin was temporarily withdrawn on 22Jan2021. The patient had not recovered from the events. Pfizer is a marketing authorization holder of pregabalin in the country of incidence. This may be a duplicate report if another marketing authorization holder of pregabalin has submitted the same report to the regulatory authorities.

Got her vaccine, came home drove herself, had no problem whatsoever, felt perfectly fine during the day. She then went out, got lunch, brought it home, nothing about the day was out of the ordinary other than the vaccination. She often stays up too late and watches TV in her recliner and falls asleep. She guesses she didn't put things away properly, and the next thing that she remembers was going into the bathroom to get ready for bed, extremely cold evening. She then remembers when she went to hang up fuzzy robe up in the bathroom on a hanger on the doorway, and when she reached up just at that moment she felt herself falling/passing out. She does not remember the moments before or after the event. She fell over her bathtub that was in the doorway, and remembers the pain of hitting the tub. The next thing she remembers is like she was in a dream, and remembers thinking that she had to call her son as she knew she was in trouble. She does not remember dialing his # at that point, but her memory tells her that she told him that she needed him. She was told that was her 2nd call and she does not remember that. She remembers thinking at some point that she was coming in and out of consciousness, and remembers her son didn't come. She called 9-1-1 and remembers talking to somebody and telling them that she could not get up. She answered that she had her door unlocked and remembers that, and apparently told them that she could not stand up. She remembers crawling, possibly to the front door to unlock it. She also remembers telling the 9-1-1 person to tell the sirens off when they get to the neighborhood. They came and took her to the hospital, but doesn't remember that but then suddenly felt like she was freezing, and asking for a blanket, and asked if somebody opened a door. She does not remember the ride to the hospital, going out of her house, just being so cold she was hurting. She doesn't remember anything whatsoever of being in the ER, running tests. They apparently did 2 CAT scans and 2 MRI's, with and without contrast on both. The ER report said that when they got her that she was having extreme chills, and in a stroke-like condition, she could not see and she could not move her body. No tests indicated that she had a stroke. She doesn't think any of them knew that she had the vaccine, they only knew she was a heart patient, and looking for the stroke by doing typical stroke tests. She apparently had called her son first and told him that she was going crazy, and he called his sister, and then she called him again and said that she needed help, and didn't understand what she was talking about. She had no temperature she was told when they took her to the hospital. At some point she then started to spike her fever, which went up to 103. The next clear memory she has is that she woke up on Sunday in the hospital in a pool of sweat after her fever had broken. She also has a memory that she woke up and somebody was touching her in her privates, and there was somebody trying to catheterize her. At first she didn't understand why and then had a vague memory of trying to get a bedpan under her, and decided to catheterize her. She then back to sleep and woke up on Sunday and was completely waking up then and saw her son sitting there. All memories other than this was vague and in and out. After she was awake on Monday they came and did an EEG of her brain, it was normal. She then was given speech therapy on Sunday afternoon, had 10 questions, and answered 9 of them, but on one of them she told them that she could not do that, and did it the next day again and was able to complete that test. When she fell and hit the bathtub she did hurt her arm from her elbow to halfway toward her wrist. Then they discharged her home with someone with her 24 hours a day and could not drive or use the stairs until she had been seen by her family doctor in a week or two to make that she was safe. She had home health care coming in and PT had been coming as well. She had home health still as of yesterday 3/25/21, and PT discharged her as of yesterday. She has been by herself, and is OK to use the stairs and driving again. She has one more home health nurse visit for them to sign off and say that she is now OK. She did get her 2nd vaccine, and she had minor issues, a weird feeling in her head for 12 hours, but nothing bad enough to take something for it. It was a little uncomfortable and out of the norm for about a day, and at one point the next afternoon was making a sandwich and had something that went through her body and felt like she was going to pass out and got into her recliner. She laid down for about 15-20 minutes, it passed and she has been fine. She had somebody stay with her for 24 hours and has done well since. She is convinced that this reaction did come from the vaccine, and that the first vaccine can cause adverse reactions, and that she does live alone and never occurred to her that she needed somebody to stay with her, and now she is afraid to be alone.

Fell; This is a spontaneous report based on the information received by Pfizer (Mfr Report# UNT-2021-002835). A non-contactable female consumer reported an 82 years old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) at single dose for COVID-19 immunisation on unknown date. Co-suspect medication included treprostinil sodium (REMODULIN, Lot# 937303, Exp. Date: 31May2022) 10 mg/ml Subcutaneous at 0.070 ug/kg for secondary pulmonary arterial hypertension since 09Sep2010. Relevant medical history included secondary pulmonary arterial hypertension (ongoing). Concomitant medications included apixaban (ELIQUIS) and tadalafil (ADCIRCA). On 18Jan2021, 10 years 4 months 10 days after initiating SQ Remodulin, the patient fell after receiving the COVID vaccine and was hospitalized. Action taken with SQ Remodulin was not reported for the event of fall. At the time of reporting, the event of fall was considered as resolved on 18Jan2021. The patient was discharged from the hospital on 22Jan2021. The reporter did not provide causality for the event of fall. Case Comment/Senders Comment: The company has assessed the event of fall as not related to SQ treprostinil considering that the patient has been on drug for more than 10 years. Fall was likely an accidental event in this elderly patient or could be caused by a syncopal episode associated with the underlying PAH or could also be associated with the administration of COVID vaccine. Additional information has been requested. No follow-up attempts are possible; information about lot/batch number cannot be obtained.

An 82-years-old female patient received the second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE; Lot Number: EN6200) via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 01Mar2021 11:00 as SINGLE DOSE for covid-19 immunisation, at 82 years old. Medical history included history of a stroke from an unknown date (previous history of a stroke 19 months ago). There were no concomitant medications. The patient previously received BNT162B2(Lot# EW5318) on 07Feb2021, at 82 years old for COVID-19 immunization and experienced no adverse event (no reaction). Other historical vaccine included Flu shot (influenza vaccine) on an unspecified date and experienced almost killed her. The patient reported no reaction and no problems (no pain, no nausea, no anything) from the second dose until the evening of 08Mar2021 when she was in her kitchen cooking and chopping vegetables, she felt the sudden urge to faint and then became so dizzy that she had to lie down on the couch. She had an overwhelming feeling of dizziness. A feeling like she wanted to faint, and she never faints. Her daughter got her to the sofa. She couldn't get off the couch. The room spun unbelievably. Everything spun. She went to bed and when she woke up, she felt worse. She states that the dizziness was worse, she was unable to visually focus, if she closed her eyes and she opened one eye it would be blurry and the people on TV were sliding off the screen and everything was sliding away, and she had pain behind her left eye into her head. When she tried to get up to go to the bathroom the room was spinning. It lasted through the next day (09Mar2021). When she got up, she couldn't put her two feet on the floor out of bed without leaning towards the left. She didn't fall. It was so bad she had to grab onto things to walk. During that day they brought her downstairs and she stayed on the sofa and it just got worse. Her daughter had her call her primary care doctor and he said that if her neurologist had heard any of what had happened, then go to the emergency room, to which is where she was 19 months ago with her stroke. She spent the 11Mar2021 and 12Mar2021 in hospital (due to dizziness). They couldn't find anything. She had not had a new stroke. She had every test known to man. They did a full neurological work up including an MRI, CT Scan, carotid artery studies and checked everything and could not find the cause of her extreme dizziness. They did confirm that she did not have a stroke. The told her that she could potentially have an inner ear problem or problems with the "crystals in her ear" which could be causing her dizziness, however, they could not positively identify the cause of her problem. They found evidence of her previous stoke. When they were sending her home, it says on her discharge paperwork, they were going to put her in a vestibular clinic. It has to do with crystals in her ear. She was still dizzy and still walking with a walker which she hasn't had to use in 19 months since her stroke. And she has slept a lot, the night she was discharged on 12Mar2021 and the following day. On 14Mar2021 she woke up a little bit. But on 15Mar2021, she is very tired and very weak and still very dizzy. The dizziness is not the room revolving kind. She is taking an anti dizzy pill. She has to see her doctor tomorrow morning, her neurologist at hospital. The dizziness is still persisting but not as bad and she can jump up and walk and do things with the walker. Regarding tests done at the hospital, she came out with shining colors apparently. All tests came through fine. There was no evidence of stroke, her blood pressure, triglycerides, fluids or liquids, everything tested perfect. When querying if she had gone to her physician's office, she reported she had a morning call with her doctor on a phone appointment and he sent her straight to the hospital. She is still dizzy and walking with a walker which she has not had to use in 19 months. She states that doing a lot of hand-eye coordination exercises at home. She has the television on to check her vision which seems to be returning to normal. She stated, "I just don't know where to go from here." She stated that she has a follow up appointment the following day with her neurologist. She wanted to know if this side effect has been reported and how long she can expect to feel this way. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures on Mar2021 which included blood pressure, triglyceride, fluids or liquids: tested perfect; and CAT scan, EKG had unknown results. On 11Mar2021, CT Scan: unknown results (could not find the cause of her extreme dizziness. They did confirm that she did not have a stroke/they could not positively identify the cause of her problem); MRI: unknown results (could not find the cause of her extreme dizziness. They did confirm that she did not have a stroke/they could not positively identify the cause of her problem). Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of overwhelming feeling of dizziness and unable to visually focus. Outcome of the event dizziness was not recovered; outcome of the event unable to visually focus (visual disturbance) was recovered on an unspecified date in Mar2021; while room was spinning (spinning sensation) was recovered on 09Mar2021, while unknown for the other events.

This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 82-year-old female patient received first dose of bnt162b2 (COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection, Lot Number: ER8737; Expiration Date: Jul2021, NDC number: Unknown), via an unspecified route of administration on 07Apr2021 (at the age of 82-year-old) at single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included had headaches most of her life, she knew it was her cervical spine because of bone spurs, arthritis, and bulging disc; she has also had change in vision, she was coming down the road from seeing her cardiologist and was looking down the road, out of right eye the road continued straight, but out of her left eye it looked like the road was turning off to the left, it was actually going straight, her eye doctor had told her that her eyes were no longer compatible, she was having five prisms put in her glasses, the neurologist was concerned, the eye thing started four or five months ago; she had shrunk to 4 foot 10 inches or 4 foot 11 inches, she used to be 5 foot 2 inches and shrunk because she had osteoporosis. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. Patient reported that she had diarrhea one day in Apr2021. She started coughing some yesterday (14Apr2021). Then she was coughing more a little later. That was not what she would normally do. 14Apr2021, she was moving her winter clothes out to her summer clothes. She worked for three to four hours. Then she got so sore and was hurting all over. She felt the same this morning (15Apr2021). She was wondering if muscle aches could be a part of it. She was really hurting last night (14Apr2021) all over. She woke up this morning and felt sore. She was better now. It was from the waist up to the rib cage and all the way around. It was general, all over. She felt so badly last night (14Apr2021) and didn't feel great this morning. Another reason she was calling was because she saw her neurologist three days before and he scheduled her for an MRI of her head and brain. She had the appointment for the MRI on the 21Apr2021. She had been told that particular test was a magnet test and not radiation. She wanted to make sure there was nothing in the vaccine. They were not sure what the vaccine was going to do. They were not sure what was dealing with. Diarrhea started a couple of days before in Apr2021 when she was out of town, just for one day. It had stopped, she had recovered completely from the diarrhea. Coughing started on 14Apr2021. It was kind of a deeper cough. She had a little coughing 15Apr2021, but mainly body aches that started late 14Apr2021. She hobbled around and went to bed and got up to go to the bathroom and was having a hard time walking because she was so sore on 14Apr2021. The soreness was all over the body. She was having the MRI on her brain and head because she had been having headaches in Apr2021. She has had headaches most of her life. She had seen him (neurologist) several years before. She knew it was her cervical spine because of bone spurs, arthritis, and bulging disc. The doctor said that was the reason for a headache, but this was a different headache. It extended from behind her eye on the left side to the back of her head. It came on suddenly and she would have it for two to three days. Then that side of the head when she was turning in the left direction was sore and hurts. The headaches that felt different had been on and off for the past several months. She would have them for 3 days running and then maybe get a reprieve. She didn't want to take the second vaccine and had that on top of each other with the MRI. She wondered if she could take the second vaccine a little later. She was not comfortable getting it around the same time of the MRI. The outcome of the event diarrhea was recovered in Apr2021, sore was recovering, outcome of the other events was unknown. No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information is expected.

An 82-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE, formulation: Solution for injection, Batch/Lot Number: EM9809), via an unspecified route of administration on 26Feb2021 as 2nd dose, single for COVID-19 immunization (age at the time of vaccination was 82-year-old).

The patient made an appointment with the orthopaedist but before she could get to see him, she had to go to the Hospital in the ambulance because the pain was so bad she could not move and she also had a lot of pain in my right shoulder which went on a couple of weeks, just beginning to light up a little bit that day. So, she thought it was a side effect because I thought it was exacerbated, it kicked in my immune system so that was what I was thinking it was and I just reported it. The patient stated regarding outcome as yes but it has alleviated quite a bit I mean it was very bad , quite a lot actually today anyways it's pretty good and I have been on Prednisone (treatment), I am in the middle of taking that. I started taking it (Prednisone) 10 days ago. I have another week to go on it's a reduce dose you know you take 2 a day to 5 days, when you take you take two twice a day for five days then you take one twice a day for five days and you take one a day for five days." When probed if consumer is taking any medication other than Prednisone, consumer stated, "Not for the pain, I mean I do have other medications beside Prednisone. I am taking Hydrochlorothiazide (Clarified as concomitant medication) and nothing else. "Regarding start date of event the patient stated, "I can only give you an approximation it was about maybe four or five days later approximately. I started felling sore on my hip and then it gone worse. From 02Mar would be a good guess. She was guessing that the Pfizer shot affected her immune system and started but this is my guess, I am not a doctor. Treatment medication included Prednisone for all the events expect I thought it exacerbated, it kicked in my immune system. Outcome of all the events was reported as recovering and unknown for the event I thought it exacerbated, it kicked in my immune system. No follow up attempts are possible.

After 2nd vaccination - patient was having trouble breathing whenever she worked out in the yard doing minor task such as raking leaves/gumballs. She had 3 or more episodes of feeling light-headed and stopping activity and walking into living room and sitting. Was able to catch breath and didn't want to go to hospital in any of these cases. However on March 8 at 3pm, she felt light-headed but on her way back to her living room, her breathing was disrupted. Her breaths were cut short and she was not receiving much air into her lungs. The breaths were shorter and shorter until she wasn't receiving hardly any air into her lungs. Her face turned blue. She passed out. She had CPR administered about 30 seconds after passing out. Ambulance arrived about 1 minute after passing out. EMT crew worked on her for 18 minutes and was ready to contact coroner when they got a heartbeat. She was taken to hospital on March 8. She was transferred to another hospital later than night. She was sent home for hospice (still unconscious) on March 16 or 17. She passed morning of March 19. Death certificate states cause of death was lack of oxygen to the brain, but no determination was made to what caused her breathing problems, which caused the lack of oxygen to her brain. EMT crew said her symptoms were very similar to blood clot in lungs. Hospital ruled out a blood clot. They also downloaded data from the pacemaker and ruled out A-Fib as the cause. Pacemaker data had indicated a mild event around 3pm on March 8 and sent a shock to her heart but nothing unusual. I believe the hospital also ruled out another cause or two, but never did determine the cause.

This paralysis caused clawed toes that were straightened surgically and affected my balance and walking (I use two hiking poles as aids for walking and balance.) Little was known at that time. I received the first Pfizer Covid shot on April 18, 2021. Two days after I had the Covid shot, the nerves in my left leg, below the knee, were sore when pressed and the affected muscles felt numb. This has persisted and at times different nerves in my lower leg are affected. Currently the muscles going down the back of my lower leg and around the ankle are affected. Three nights after the Covid shot, I had severe left kidney pains, became violently sick and the following morning went to my health facility emergency care department. I had no previous kidney problems or signs of a UTI. I had a CT scan of the kidney and was treated for a kidney infection and UTI with antibiotics. I have been to a kidney specialist and urologist with tests continuing. My breathing was erratic for a few days and I felt nauseous for 2 weeks. I have not had the second covid shot.

She got the vaccine, she had no effects, and no reaction whatsoever. The husband had no side effects either. On 3/16/21 they were on their way to go to bed and the bedroom is upstairs and she was fine, she was in the bedroom getting ready for bed, and her husband followed 15 minutes later and when he got upstairs she was sitting in a chair next to the bed, and he noticed that when he spoke with her that she did not speak clearly back, and was very low tone, not much loudness to her speech. He didn't think much about it, and he talked with her again and noticed that she seemed to be having some difficulty talking, but he could understand what she was saying if he paid close attention. He then realized that something was wrong, and asked her how she felt and she said she felt strange. She was trying to take a pair of socks off and could not reach them. She tried to lift her leg to put one knee over the other for her to remove them and was not able to do that. He helped her take the socks off, she wanted to put some cream on her foot and was not able to do so, which is her usual routine. He put that on her foot while he was talking to her, and her speech was different than it was earlier. She was wearing a turtle neck shirt and was not able to take it off to get dressed for bed. Her husband assisted in dressing her to get ready for bed. He was thinking that she may have been having a mini-stroke. She tried to get up from the chair and was not able to get up on her own. He went to try to help her to lift her and it was hard. When she did get her bottom up off the chair she stayed in a bent position and was not able to stand up. He put her back down on the chair and tried some more times, and ultimately able to get up and he was able to get her into the bed (the chair was next to the bed). She could sit on the edge of the bed, but was not able to move her legs on her own to get into the bed. He struggled to get her in the bed and was not in a mood to talk and just leaned over on one side to try to go to sleep. He told her he was going to get the walker in the basement for her to use. He brought up the walker and put in by the bed, and informed her that it was there, and reached to see where it was in the event that she needed to use it through the night. She did get up around 3:15 this morning to use the bathroom and her husband asked if she needed assistance, and she said that she was able to get up and go to the bathroom, and moved her legs just slow and was able to use the walker. She was feeling much better at that time. She got up one more time during the night and was not in need of the walker and was back to bed. This morning when they got up at 8:00 Am and she was back to her normal self. She came down the steps and was like nothing had ever happened. They called her son who works in the hospital and he told them to call us to see if there were any other people that had the same reaction. She stated while he was giving me this information that she did not recall a lot of the events that he was telling me.

Back aches; Chills; Couldn't breathe; Couldn't walk; pain; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 84-years-old female patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Right on 20Feb2021 16:30 at 84-years-old (Batch/Lot Number: EL9264) as dose 2, single for COVID-19 immunization.

Patient had both Pfizer Covid Shots. She had side effects and had to be rushed to the hospital. They are sending her a bill, and she felt that she should not have to pay the hospital bill. Her insurance paid so much and the bill is for $250 that she doesn't have. It is for the ambulance. The vaccine was for Covid. She had the first dose on 30Jan2021 and the second on 20Feb2021. 2 days after the second one she had to be rushed to the hospital. She was getting chills, back aches, and all kinds of complications. She couldn't even move, and she called an ambulance. Her insurance left her with a $250 bill. She called the ambulance to say it is due to the Covid shot. Each time she called she waited over an hour. Yesterday she waited over an hour and a half. She is a little disgusted. Now she got a bill from the hospital, and she figured it was related to the Covid shot. She thinks they gave her a shot at the hospital. It was quite an experience. After she was admitted to the hospital for a couple hours that Saturday or Sunday so she thinks she was in the hospital on 21Feb2021, they gave her a shot and she started seeing things. It was an experience she doesn't want to go through again. She has no idea what the shot was, she thinks it was for the pain. They sent her home and gave her pills to take for the pain. She doesn't want to take too many pills for pain. The pills are Hydrocodone Acetaminophen, she takes one half to 1 tablet as needed for pain for up to 3 days. They are in an amber colored pharmacy bottle. It says OTY6. She couldn't walk 2 days after she had the second shot (22Feb2021). Back aches: She more of less ignored it. She took Tylenol and that didn't help. That Sunday she more or less started aching and couldn't breathe. She told her husband she had to get out of there. She just took regular Tylenol, expiration date: Nov2023. She does not see a lot number. Each one is 500mg. She has arthritis too. It is an over the counter medication. Couldn't breathe 2 days after she had the second shot. As a matter of fact, they had to lift her off of the bed. It was on and off for a couple of hours. She can't remember if she had any tests done. Adverse Event Chills, couldn't breathe, couldn't walk, and back aches time of onset (24-hour clock) was about 13:00 or 14:00. She did not take any other vaccinations within four weeks prior to the first administration date of the suspect vaccine. She asked the doctor before taking the vaccine, and he said it wouldn't affect her at all. On the paper it specifies if she has any side effect to call the ambulance which she did.

fainted; passed out and was unconscious; still kind of feel weak; bruise on both knees; fall; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable registered nurse (patient, Retired RN). An 85-year-old female patient received her 1st dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number: EL8982) at single dose via an unknown route injection in left arm on 23Jan2021 around 08:15 for Covid-19 immunization. Medical history included ongoing blood pressure high which was controlled with medication, allergic to penicillin and acetylsalicylic acid;ascorbic acid (ASPIRIN). She had lost weight and shrunk according to when she went to the doctor 2 months ago. No other products were taken. No history of all previous immunization with the Pfizer vaccine considered as suspect; no vaccines administered on same date with the Pfizer vaccine considered as suspect. No other vaccinations within four weeks prior to the first administration date of the suspect vaccine, no events following prior vaccinations. No family medical history relevant to the events. Patient passed out on her way home on 23Jan2021 (unknown time). The event required a visit to Emergency room, but not a Physician office. The event clinical course was as follows: She got the first dose of the Covid-19 vaccine on Saturday 23Jan2021. Patient reported that after being monitored at the vaccination site for 20minutes, she left to go catch the bus and fainted before boarding the bus. She remembered getting on the bus, but did not remember crossing the street. She passed out and was unconscious. An ambulance was called and they took her back to the hospital where she got the vaccine. She was taken by ambulance back to the ER, stayed for half the day, she received IV fluids, and a brain scan due to her fall. She stated that she still feels kind of weak as of 29Jan2021. She did not know what time it happened, because she lost her sense of time on that day because she did not remember. When she got to the hospital she woke up and wondered where she was because she did not remember what happened. They got an x-ray of her head to see if she had bumped it, but it was negative. She did have a bruise on both knees. They gave her IV fluids, and kept her there for a little while, then sent her home. She called her doctor the next day, but he was busy, so she talked to the nurse. No treatment was recommended, just said to get a lot of rest. She was scheduled for the 2nd dose on 13Feb2021 and was scared to death. Patient verified that she was not admitted to the hospital. Investigation assessment were performed. They hooked her up to the monitor, did an x-ray and a CT scan while at the hospital on 23Jan2021 which were normal (both fine), and gave her IV fluids. Outcome of fainted, fall, passed out and was unconscious was resolved on 23Jan2021. Outcome of kind of feel weak was not resolved. Outcome of the other event was unknown.; Sender's Comments: Considering the temporal association, a causal association between administration of BNT162B2 and the onset of fainted and unconscious cannot be fully excluded. The underlying history of high blood pressure for this 85 years old patient might provide an alternative explanation. The impact of this report on the benefit/risk profile of the Pfizer product is evaluated as part of Pfizer procedures for safety evaluation, including the review and analysis of aggregate data for adverse events. Any safety concern identified as part of this review, as well as any appropriate action in response, will be promptly notified to Regulatory Authorities, Ethics Committees and Investigators, as appropriate.

Severe and acute swelling of right hand. Hand was swelled to an extent that only the top first joints of the fingers were discernible and this prevented use or any movement of fingers. Swelling began on April 19th, late afternoon. Swelling peaked on the 20th very severe, and gradually subsided over following days. Now 10 days later, hand is again usable, with very little residual swelling, though still visible different from left hand. Took Advil for 4 nights beginning on the 20th, and everything seems fine now. Despite 30 years of rheumatoid arthritis, no such swelling event or attack had ever occurred for any reason, so we believe it was related to the vaccine, and felt we should report it. But everything seems fine now. No other reactions or side effects were noted.

SUMMARY: New onset of arthritis-like joint pain affecting bilateral fingers, wrists, elbows, shoulders, and knees. Pain onset was temporally associated with the second COVID-19 vaccine shot. It began within one week of the shot and has persisted since then. "At times it is extremely painful and throbs. It affects me at night and sometimes the pain keeps me awake, but it is especially bad in the mornings. Sometimes I have pain both in pulling the blanket over me at night and taking it off in the morning. It has gotten so bad that I dread getting up each day. Some days I can barely get out of bed. I do feel better after I am up and moving around. Oddly, the pain moves from one area to another, affecting different joints in my body. It doesn't stay consistently in the same joint(s). It is really weird. I've had occasional aches before, such as in my lower back, but I have never felt anything like this. It is definitely new and came on all of a sudden. I believe that the vaccine triggered something in my immune system that has caused this new joint pain. CHRONOLOGY: I had my first Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine shot on February 10, 2021. Three weeks later, I had my second shot on March 4, 2021. Ever since then (beginning approximately on March 10, 2021), I have had these new and very bizarre aches in my joints. It started in my left fingers. They felt extremely stiff in the mornings and I had numbness and tingling in my hand. It felt like I couldn't even move it. It was weird. I have never felt anything like it before. It's not you usual "pins and needles" when your arm "goes to sleep." Shortly after that, it affected my right hand too. Some mornings it is almost impossible to straighten them. They are so stiff that I feel like I am going to break them if I move them. It didn't happen every morning at first, but it is becoming more consistent, over time. Once I get up and start moving in the morning, the joint pain usually goes away. Sometimes, I have a shooting pain in my hands and I think there may be nerve damage. I have also noticed that my grip strength in my hands has decreased. My hands are much weaker than they used to be. In addition to my bilateral fingers, this new arthritis has affected my bilateral wrists, elbows, and my right shoulder. When I saw my PCP on April 6th, 2021, my knees were not affected because I remember being able to get up from a seated position very easily. My doctor even commented on how agile I was. That has generally been true for me over the years. In the last month, though, since approximately June 15th, 2021 my knees have started to be affected by the same pain and stiffness. I notice it especially when I am getting up from a seated position. I have to hold onto something for support. Then, on approximately July 1, 2021, the pain and stiffness also started affecting my left shoulder. My right shoulder bothers me less now. It is very strange how the pain seems to move around from one area to another. So far, it has not affected my neck, my hips, or my feet. When I saw my PCP on April 6th, 2021, it was because I was having a lot of fatigue and I felt short of breath. I also told him about my joint pain and how I thought the vaccine caused it, since it seemed to start right after the second dose, but he dismissed it as being arthritis. I knew, however, that this was new for me and that I had never had it before. When I saw my Pulmonologist shortly thereafter, I told her about my symptoms and how I thought the vaccine had caused them. She said, "It absolutely could be." The most severe pain I have experienced to-date has been in my right wrist. I remember a sharp pain one day in February 2021, when I was trying to twist an ice cube tray. I do not recall if this was before or after my first vaccine shot on February 10, 2021. The tray was frozen pretty solid and it was hard to twist it to get the ice cubes out. I am left-handed and I remember that my right wrist was sore for several days afterwards. That right wrist pain still comes and goes. Sometimes I feel it every morning for a while, and then I won't. I have kept my wrist wrapped in a bandage and I am careful with how I use it, but I must have done something to aggravate it, because on Monday morning, May 24th, 2021, I got up to go to the bathroom and my right wrist hurt a lot. I had a hard time pulling up my underwear and pants. My right shoulder bothered me too. I got back into bed but I had a hard time pulling the covers back up over me. The pain worsened. It was almost unbearable and I was in tears. My husband got up a little later to go use the bathroom. He asked if I was okay and I said, "No, my wrist is killing me and I cant go back to sleep." He brought me hot washcloths to wrap around my wrist and this helped. He must have brought me fifty hot washcloths. The next morning, I called my PCP and asked for a referral to see a rheumatologist. I have an appointment pending on August 5, 2021. Then, on Wednesday, May 26, 2021, my right wrist pain was excruciating. I contacted my PCP and made an appointment for the next day. The pain subsided a bit and I kept my wrist wrapped. I was careful with how I used it, but the pain started up again in the morning after I got dressed. I was in tears because it hurt so much. I couldn't even touch it. It was swollen. I had trouble moving my right 4th and 5th fingers too. I used a heating pad and took Tylenol and they helped to take the edge off, but it still hurt. I wondered if I had a fracture or a torn tendon or ligament. I asked my doctor to give me an order for imaging so that I wouldn't have to go through the ER. The A.P. x-ray of my wrist did not show any fractures, but my doctor wrote in his note that there is a "deformity" in the wrist. I have tried a topical pain reliever, Aspercream, with minimal relief. I have not had the excruciating pain in my right wrist since May. I had hoped that the arthritis-like pain and stiffness would gradually go away with time, but it has persisted, off and on. Most mornings, I continue to have pain. I am now afraid to get a booster shot of the COVID vaccine if one is need because I don't want my pain to get worse."

Congestive cough; Weakness; didn't have an appetite; legs felt stiff, or almost frozen; Severe muscle weakness/extreme weakness was only in her mother's lower body; tremendous fatigue/Tiredness; Couldn't walk; This is a spontaneous report from contactable consumers. An 86-year-old female patient (mother) received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) via an unspecified route of administration at left arm on 12Jan2021 10:15 at single dose for COVID-19 immunization.

Caller's grandmother had Multiple Sclerosis. There were no concomitant medications. The patient received her first Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine dose, and had significant side effects. Patient weight was 175 lbs as provided by caller, who stated her mother recently moved into an independent living facility, and gained weight because the facility has a really good pastry chef. Patient height, reported her mother shrunk, and was 5'5-1/2". Reported her mother couldn't walk after receiving the first dose. She said her mother was not able to walk the next morning, 13Jan2021. The caller stated she had to spend 3 days with her mother, after her mother received her first COVID-19 Vaccine dose on 12Jan2021. Reported she thought initially what her mother was experiencing was either neurological or muscular. She said it was like her mother's brain wanted her to move, but her mother's legs wouldn't move. She said her mother needed to use a walker and have someone hold her from behind. She said now, at a week later, her mother still was not back to normal. She clarified her mother needed a walker to maneuver around, but didn't need someone holding her from behind. Reported she assumed her mother may have had tiredness, weakness, severe muscle weakness from receiving the first COVID-19 Vaccine dose. She clarified if her mother wasn't able to walk after receiving the first COVID-19 Vaccine dose, then what her mother had was the epitome of weakness, and the weakness was only in her mother's lower body. She said her mother had tremendous fatigue on days 2, 3, and 4 after receiving the first dose. She said her mother was able to function as of 19Jan2021, but her mother couldn't keep her eyes open during that time period. Reported her mother developed a congestive cough. She said her mother's cough was not continual, but persisting. She stated her mother said the cough was there before she had her first dose of the COVID-19 Vaccine. The caller stated she disagreed with her mother. She said her mother has COPD, but her mother was not a cougher. She said her mother's cough now, reminded her of the cough her mother had when her mother had the COVID-19 Virus in 2020. She clarified her mother was tested on 23Apr2020 for the COVID-19 Virus, and diagnosed positive for the virus on 24Apr2020. The caller said she was perplexed by her mother's cough, and her mother will be seeing her doctor this Thursday, 21Jan2021. She said she gave her mother some Robitussin for the cough. She said her mother's cough was not persistent, but the cough was still there. She said her mother's cough was not constant, but her mother's cough was congested. She said she didn't know when her mother's cough started. She said she thought giving her mother the Robitussin doses was kind of insignificant, because her mother did not have a constant cough, where she needed to take the Robitussin. She said her mother didn't even use half of a normal sized Robitussin bottle. Caller stated she did not have the Robitussin UPC, Lot, and Expiration Date. Reported her mother has an annual lung x-ray and MRI, clarifying she believed her mother had both within the past 3 months. Reported her mother was concerned about receiving the second COVID-19 Vaccine dose. She said she told her mother that it was better to get the second dose of the COVID-19 Vaccine than to get the COVID-19 Virus again. Reported her mother had asked her primary care doctor if she should get the COVID-19 Vaccine, and her doctor told her absolutely. She said her doctor told her she needed to take the COVID-19 Vaccine even if she had the plasma treatment with the COVID-19 Virus in Apr2020. Reported she planned to stay with her mother after her mother received the second COVID-19 Vaccine dose. She said she didn't anticipate her mother having a reaction after the first COVID-19 Vaccine dose because people said most reactions are happening after getting the second COVID-19 Vaccine dose. She said now people are reporting having reactions after the first COVID-19 Vaccine dose. Reported she thought her mother's side effect after having the COVID-19 Vaccine to be unusual, since most people say it feels like they have the flu, or they are tired, or they have a headache. Reported her mother not to be able to walk wasn't that her mother was not walking, but that her mother's foot wouldn't move. She said mother not walking was either neurologic or muscular, unless that is what extreme weakness is. She said she wondered if others have experienced what her mother has. She said if her mother was experiencing just extreme weakness, the extreme weakness was only in her mother's lower body, not in her upper body. She said her mother didn't have an appetite, but her mother was not too weak to put a spoon to her mouth. She said her mother couldn't move her legs, and her mother said her legs felt stiff, or almost frozen. She said if her mother had extreme weakness, and couldn't walk, what did that mean. She said if a person is really tired, the person can still move and get out of bed. She said her mother said she was really, really tired, and couldn't move. The caller said her mother said she couldn't move, and it took her mother 20 minutes to get her legs over the side of the bed. She said her mother not being able to move her legs could be extreme weakness, but observing her mother first hand, she said it looked like her mother not being able to move her legs was neurologic. She said her mother was strong in character and body, and her mother would do everything she could in her body to move, but it was like her mother's brain said "go", and her body said "not now". The outcome of the event Congestive cough was not recovered, of the other events was unknown. Information on the lot/batch number has been requested.

It was the worst night she has had, and she is 86 years old, and has had a multitude of serious issues but that shot was the worst. It was a combination of high blood pressure, over the top, and insomnia like she couldn't budge and open her eyes, she couldn't see anything but squares, it was like a horrible, if there is such a thing as a trip, a horrible trip, something she can't imagine wishing on anyone. The county administered it, she has several doctor, she initially provides her primary care doctor, for consent to contact, but says her nephrologist would be better, as she hasn't seen her primary care doctor in some time. Her primary care doctor doesn't know she had this, another doctor gave her permission, her nephrologist.

First shot was 3 weeks back. It looks like she had it on 22Jan2021, the headache and arm hurting started towards the evening, the shot was taken earlier in the day, and they started in the evening, her headache was quite severe, but with Tylenol it went away, the arm is still sore from the second vaccine, but is slightly better. Clarifies she was hospitalized for the blood pressure and delirium, like, it is best explained, like delirious: incapable of sleeping, insomnia and inability to be awake and aware, all she could see was, like if she talked about people who did LSD and trips, it was a bad trip, it was squares, she wanted to open her eyes, but could only see squares. She fell asleep Friday night about 11PM, and felt this at 04:00, and she pulled off her sleep apnea mask, she had to run to the restroom, she was weak, feeling like she would slip onto the floor, and had to get right in bed, and the insomnia continued until about 7AM, that was when she started to be able to focus on like words, she was able to say words in her mind, it was like a bad nightmare. She was admitted to the hospital, she was in the emergency room (ER), the paramedics took her there Saturday, about 07:30, took her to the hospital after immediate heart checking, an intravenous (IV) of some kind, and brought her to the hospital and she was in X-rays and what not, they did procedures in the ER, and they suggested her to be observed overnight, they watched her and things started to become more normal, but she is still not clear headed, she is woozy, like foggy. High, over the top blood pressure outcome: It has been back to a good blood pressure. Insomnia is ok- she slept ok last night. What is left: the night she woke up, so early Sunday morning, in the hospital, she was profusely sweating like someone came to her room and showered her bed with water, her sheets and blankets were soaked and this morning she woke, she got up, was still very woozy, and asked her husband to help get her out of bed, and she changed her nightgown and after an hour she got in the shower, as she was sweating again, not sweating, but occasionally on and off chills, she is taking off her nightshirt and putting on a bed jacket, she gets warm and cold, hot and cold. She had blood labs a chest X-ray, heart monitor the whole time until she was discharged, and everything was good except the kidney was extremely dehydrated. This was all on Saturday as well. On her first visit to get the vaccine, at that time, the facility was a big mall, and they handed her what to look for after the injection, and she didn't notice until this morning, it says if you have an immune system that is compromised, it could affect it, and she has immune system that is compromised diagnosed many years ago.

An 86-year-old female patient received her second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number and expiration date were not provided) at the age of 86-years-old, via an unspecified route of administration on 24Mar2021 at 14:00 at single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included high blood pressure diagnosed in 1971 (reported as 50 years ago) and ongoing; type 2 diabetes in 2011 (reported as 10 years ago) which resolved in 2019 (about 2 years ago) after the patient lost some weight; she had an episode of A-Fib in 2019 when her potassium was low (lower than the current hospitalization), once the potassium was corrected, her A-Fib resolved. The physician stated that patient has shrunk and was now about 5 foot 2 inches. Clarified that this has not recently occurred since the vaccine; stated it was happening just with age. The patient received her first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number and expiration date were not provided), via an unspecified route of administration on an unspecified date at single dose for COVID-19 immunization. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. The patient did not have any issues with the first dose of the vaccine. She received her second vaccine dose on 24Mar2021. The physician spoke with the patient on Friday, 26Mar2021, and the patient was fine. On Saturday, 27Mar2021, the patient had an episode of diarrhea, vomiting and was weak. The lady cleaning the patient's house found her slumped against the wall. The physician met them at the hospital and said the patient seemed okay. They thought it was just an issue from her potassium being low on Mar2021, so they gave her that. The hospital did a CT scan that showed nothing on Mar2021. The hospital did an MRI of the head that showed multiple small emboli in the brain on Mar2021. The physician believed that the patient must have thrown more clots because she became aphasic on Mar2021 and could not name things. The patient also had difficulty walking on Mar2021. The physician felt it was important to call and report this since she has heard of people throwing clots with vaccines. The physician did not know if the events were related to the vaccine. The patient was in the hospital for 7 days (as reported). She was now able to walk with some assistance. The patient's son thought that the patient was okay when he went to see her. Since the reporter was a physician, she knew which questions to ask the patient and saw that she still had some problems. The patient could remember some things but has problems with recent memories on an unspecified date in 2021. She also has some confusion on an unspecified date in 2021, such as she thought she was in a boat hospital. The physician was uncertain if the vomiting and diarrhea was somewhat better. They were wondering if the patient has some food sensitivities (2021). The patient also had carotid studies done in the hospital on Mar2021 and they were fine. They believed that patient's potassium dropped, and she went into A-Fib and threw clots on Mar2021. The clots must have come from the heart valves since the carotid studies were fine and if the clots had been in her legs, they would've gone to her lungs not to her brain. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included CT scan: negative, potassium: low, carotid studies: fine, MRI of the head: multiple small emboli in brain, all on Mar2021; and potassium: low, height: 5 foot 2 inches (shrunk), and weight: lost, all on an unspecified date. The events diarrhea, vomiting, weakness and fall required emergency room visit. The outcome of the event difficult walking was recovering and unknown for all other events. The events diarrhea, vomiting, weakness, fall, potassium low, cerebral embolism, thrombosis, and "potassium dropped and she went into A-Fib and threw clots" were assessed as serious due to hospitalization and being life threatening; and the events aphasia and gait disturbance were assessed as serious due to hospitalization. All other events were non-serious. The patient was hospitalized from 27Mar2021 until 02Apr2021. Information about the lot/batch number has been requested.

An 86-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 MRNA VACCINE), dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 25Mar2021 16:30 (Batch/Lot number was not reported) as SINGLE DOSE for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included ongoing multiple sclerosis , ongoing hypertension, ongoing diabetes mellitus, myocardial infarction from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing stent placed and spasms; and from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing. The patient previously had flu shot and feel a little bit sick, it hit her lot harder with the flu shot. Concomitant medication includes, unspecified, diabetic and hypertensive medication and medication for spasms. On 25Mar2021, 45 minutes to an hour after the patient's first dose, the patient felt like someone was choking her and felt like her jaw was "getting large" without physically getting large. The patient was not able to get out of her wheelchair, even though she was normally able to do so on her own, and her blood pressure systolically reached 170. Her mother was given "excess water" and was given her hypertensive medication "a little early" which caused her pressure to come down quickly. Based on this reaction that her mother had, caller would like to know if it was safe for the patient to receive her second dose of the vaccine. They stayed about 15 min at the drive thru to make sure there was no reaction. It was about a 30-minute drive home with traffic. It happened within the hour, right when she got in the house. The patient had a reaction to the first dose, and the caller wanted to know if it was safe for her to get the second. Within the first hour the patient felt like someone was choking her, she felt like her jaw was swelling, she felt extreme weakness and could not stand, and her blood pressure shot up. It shot up to 170, but she did not know the diastolic. The patient felt like she was choking so she was doused with water to push anything through in case that would help. Within a couple of hours, the patient started to feel better. They gave her excess fluids and gave her blood pressure medication a little bit earlier and everything came back down. She was frightened when this first occurred. The feeling of choking and the feeling of jaw swelling got better and went away within a few hours. The patient had multiple sclerosis so weakness is always an issue and mobility is always an issue. She knew her tolerance and what she could do. That day they had taken her in a wheelchair from the car to the house and she could not get out of the wheelchair, which was not normal for her. This happened within an hour of the shot. The weakness lingered the longest. That side effect did linger. It took a couple of days. She was using a Hugo again to get herself around the house and believes this extreme weakness has gone away. She was exercising on a stepper when the caller was talking to her. Caller did not believe there had been any lasting effects. Blood pressure shot up: Started within an hour of the vaccine. She had been hypertensive for quite some time historically. Her medication had been keeping it under control. They administered her dose early that day and it brought it down, it did not linger. The patient had been housebound since the pandemic started. The outcome of the event blood pressure shot up was recovering, while the outcome of the event couldn't stand was unknown; and the outcome of the rest of the events was recovered on 25Mar2021. Information on lot/batch number has been requested.

blood clot; Sciatica; She then got sciatica in her leg and couldn't walk; charley horse in her lower leg while walking; soreness in arm / pain in her foot / lower leg/calf still hurt; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable nurse (patient). This 86 years old female patient received the second single dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE; lot EN6203) on 04Mar2021 at 11:00, in left arm, for COVID-19 immunisation. No other vaccines were administered on the same date. The patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 vaccine intramuscular, on 11Feb2021 at 18:30 (lot EN6201). The patient received some years ago an unspecified pneumonia vaccine and an unspecified tetanus vaccine experiencing after both headache, swollen arm and rash. She didn't react to the flu vaccine. Her body didn't want any more vaccine. Concomitant medications were none. On an unspecified date in Mar2021, maybe a week or two after the second vaccination, early to mid afternoon, the patient had what felt like a charley horse in her lower leg while walking, but didn't pay any attention to it, just put ice on the leg. She then got sciatica in her leg on 24Apr2021 and couldn't walk; that was what sent her to the hospital as it was getting worse and she went to the hospital because of the pain. She just ignored it for at least a week but she was still having pain after the second week and could hardly walk due to the sciatica in that leg. At the hospital they found she had a blood clot in the calf of her leg on 28Apr2021. She was hospitalized from 28Apr2021 to 02May2021. The doctors in the hospital recommended that she should report her experience even though they didn't know if it was due to the COVID vaccine due to the proximity. The hospital doctors took care of her but her primary care provider knew that she had been in the hospital. The doctors gave her medications in the hospital that helped the pain in her foot and the sciatica but her lower leg/calf still hurt so they decided to do an ultrasound and found a blood clot. The patient still had to give herself injections in the belly for blood thinner to treat the blood clot. The patient also experienced soreness in arm on an unspecified date in 2021. Sciatica required ER visit. Blood clot was resolving. The other events outcome was unknown. The doctor said that there was a possibility that the blood clot could be related to the COVID vaccine, but it may not be related at all.; Sender's Comments: Based on the information provided by the reporter, including a prolonged onset latency of nearly two months, it appears unlikely that BNT162B2 contributed to the reported events. These are likely intercurrent medical conditions in this elderly patient. This case will be reassessed upon receipt of additional information. The impact of this report on the benefit/risk profile of the Pfizer product is evaluated as part of Pfizer procedures for safety evaluation, including the review and analysis of aggregate data for adverse events. Any safety concern identified as part of this review, as well as any appropriate action in response, will be promptly notified to Regulatory Authorities, Ethics Committees and Investigators, as appropriate.,Linked Report(s) :PFIZER INC-2021501847 same patient/drug, different vaccine dose/AE

The day after the first shot, my mother had bad knee pain in her left knee. It went on for days/week. After the second dose, days out she started feel very tired and bad pain in her feet that went to her hands and she couldn't get out of bed or urinate properly. Her facility doctor gave her Gabepentin for the pain but it did not help. She declined over a week or so and then She was admitted into the hospital for dehydration (March 19, 2021). The put a catheter in her to get urine out and bring her kidney function back to her normal (she does have kidney disease). Gave her more Gabepentin (which does not help pain in feet an hands) and released her to rehab. and she is now on oxygen. Rehab was bad so I got her out and released to her facility so she could receive rehab there. She declined again with the same reaction: extreme fatigue, can't walk and now urinates and defecates in an adult diaper and now breathing is very labored. She was admitted to the hospital and they can't find out why she is in this way. They did blood work, tests, scan and X-rays without any answers. They switched up meds on her and then released her to rehab since she hasn't walked in weeks/month at this point. She is regaining strength but now on oxygen even when sitting. She is 86 and walked with a walker all around her facility and when going to doctor appointments. Now she is in a wheelchair for doctor appointments since she has no strength and needs oxygen to walk. Her facility saw her decline after the second shot and my mom is very vocal and each day told them how she felt awful and it is because of the shot. She still has neuropathy in her feet and hands but it is not as painful as it originally was and it peaked and now just painful about a 5-6 on a scale of 0-10.

Within several minutes after receiving the 2nd Pfizer vacinne injection the patient experienced severe dizziness and was taken by medical personnel to a medical tent for continuing observation and was offered food and liquid. After approximately 45 minutes she was released by the doctors and returned home. Within days of the 2nd injection the patient, at home, exhibited random brief periods of hallucidations. This issue continued periocically for 2-3 weeks. After this 2-3 week period, the caregiver (her husband) abruptly became aware, during numerous conversations, that the patient referred to her husband (Me) and his name, as in fact being 2-4 different persons, all of whom had the same name and appearance and identity. After many attempts, due to the Neurologist dr busy schedule, the patient was finally seen by a neurologist, on 04/30/2021. Neurology Dr ordered a MRI Brain Scan which was conducted at the Hospital on 06/03/2021. The MRI report showed only normal age-related degeneration, but no other brain modifications or deterioration. At the follow-up visit with neurologist, on 07/01/2021, the patient was diagnosed with Capgras Syndrome, an extremely rare variant of dementia. A treatment regimen for this diagnosis is currently being sought; as controlled clinical studies of potential treatments have never been undertaken due to its rarity. Due to the unique and comparative time-frame of the onset of the rare dementia disorder and her 2nd vaccination shot, I believe that the 2nd shot of the Pfizer vaccine could be the root cause of the dementia. We will be additionally contacting Pfizer about this adverse event.

Forty minutes after second shot, I got a bad pain in the back of my upper right thigh. I had to limp to my apartment. I didn't think it could be related to the vaccine as it was so soon, and only in the one place. It had lasted until now and I've had three physical therapy visits so far, though it is not as bad, but it's over three weeks. I didn't think it could be related until my doctor's office said they had four cases of the exact same thing, and in younger people. (20's and 30's). At first, the PT said it was due to a pulled muscle, though I had done nothing at all to account for that.

She got the vaccine, went home and went to bed. She woke up around 5:00 AM and was a little light headed, but as the day went on she found herself holding onto the wall and then had to get her cane. She does have Meniere's disease. She had a sick stomach, not nausea. Some days were a little better than others. She got up slower, and that didn't help that situation. She called her doctor and told them how she was feeling, and she was asked if she wanted to come into the office, and she declined. Then a few days went by and she did not feel any better. She reached out to her family and they told her to call somebody and that's when she read her paperwork and called us.

Patient received the injection on May 2nd. Following the injection, we noticed an increased weakness and general achiness. On the 8th she was so weak that we purchased a gait belt to assist her. We were not super concerned as we were expecting the second shot to cause body aches or flu like symptoms based on what we had heard from others who had received both vaccine shots. She continued to be unsteady and we found that she has a mild UTI which we had begun treating with prescribed antibiotics. Late afternoon on the 11th, mother suffered a major stroke. we did not take her to the hospital because we had already been told that they would not be able to do anything at her age should she suffer a stroke. On the 12th I called the doctors office and asked for them to send Hospice to the house as we could tell that she was dying. Mother died on the 13th. Just a week prior to her death I had spoken with Dr. and we had discussed how that she was declining in health but that she was not even close to needing Hospice, yet she is dead a week later. Less than 2 weeks after getting her second Covid Shot.

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.

She was very tired and was sleeping a lot the next day. She felt very like groggy. In fact, she was so groggy, she pressed the wrong button in her chair. She clarified she has lymphedema and she has to be in a lift chair to keep her legs elevated. When she needs to get up, she presses a certain button to raise and lift the chair into a sitting position. However, that day, her doorbell rang (her meals are delivered to her) and she was so groggy and confused, that she pressed the button that put her straight out into a lying position instead of a sitting position. She ended up sliding off the chair and onto the floor. She had to call for assistance (there is an emergency button she can press). She had to be lifted off the floor. She explained to them she didn't end up on the floor from walking, she slid off the chair. She was so disoriented she pressed the wrong button.

She remained on the nice cold floor (its a ceramic tile floor) until they came to pick her up. She mentioned she has had 2 hip replacements and once she is on the floor, she can't get up. Once assistance from where she lives came to pick her up, she was asked if she need to go the hospital or call ambulance. She explained to them she didn't fall. She slid off the chair. She is a very active person. Although she is almost 90, year is not senile. She slid off the chair, she didn't fall. The patient stated that she got the flu shot this past October and had a terrible reaction to that, too. Therefore, she doesn't know if it's just her system.
