Patient was a healthy, active man, walked the dog 2x a day, wrote about classical music, etc. until 02/23-26/2021: Atrial fibrillation episodes that would not resolve themselves; 03/03/2021: Cardioversion at Hospital which did not work; medications were changed or adjusted over the next weeks, Metoprolo tartrate 25mg was added 03/10/2021.

Great improvement, had more energy, was ale to drive again but was not back to his active self pre- 02/23/2021. Medications as of 04/27/2021 were Allopurinal 300mg daily; Atorvastatin 10mg, daily; Eliquis 5mg 2x a day; Furosemide 20mg daily; Melatonin 10mg, daily; Metoprolol succinate ER 50mg daily; Valsartan 40mg, daily; Adult 50+ Eye Health, daily; multivitamin, 1 daily; Docusate sodium 50mg as needed. By 05/26/2021, the patient is once again sleeping off and on during the day, has no energy, coughs more, can't concentrate, has lost his appetite, is anxious and discouraged.

The patient, over the more than 3 months, has had xrays, electrocardiagrams, CT scans; bloodwork done. The question is: is it possible that these seemingly uncontrolable atrial fibrillation episodes are an adverse reaction to the second Pfizer vaccine? Has research been done on the vaccine and cardiac problems?

My father was in weak condition to begin with. He didn't get out of bed for the next few days after receiving the vaccine. The little amount that he ate was consumed in bed. He began aspirating his food which lead to pneumonia. He wasn't strong enough to fight off the pneumonia even with antibiotics. He died on 1/23/21. While he might have passed soon in any case, I believe that the vaccine may possibly have increased his weakness/exhaustion thereby hastening his demise.
