From ED Note: 12 year old male with PMH of asthma on flovent, food allergies with epi-pen (has not required this) and pre-syncope/syncope who presents with concern for loss of consciousness and possible seizure-like activity following a COVID vaccine. Mom notes that he was in his usual state of health when he presented to COVID clinic to get his first vaccine. He got the Pfizer vaccine, seconds after getting in his left arm, mom noted that he looked very "wide eyed" and distraught. She notes that he slumped forward and had lost consciousness for approximately 5 seconds. She noticed shaking movements in his right arm and bilateral lower legs. She notes that his left arm was against her and therefore cannot comment on it. She notes that his eyes were closed. No tongue biting and no incontinence. No secondary trauma. She notes that when these 5 seconds were over he then had a period for about 30 minutes where he looked pale and was breathing heavy but was alert and answering questions. She notes that he has had presyncopal episodes and episodes of feeling faint when getting flu shots in the past. However, this time she noted that he had shaking which made her nervous for possible seizure activity. Patient denies any chest pain or headache prior to the symptoms. She came via ambulance for further evaluation. On arrival, he reports that he feels 90% back to his baseline. He notes that he does not feel quite ready to run around yet however denies any pains or discomforts, headache, weakness, numbness, or tingling. He had eaten a full breakfast prior to getting the shot. He had a normal night sleep and a normal day yesterday per mom. Medical History: as above Surgical history: none Family History: Reviewed and no pertinent related family hx pertaining to this visit Social History: Lives with family Allergies: food allergies Medications: flovent, epi-pen Immunizations: Up to date Medical Decision Making 12 year old male with PMH of asthma on flovent, food allergies with epi-pen (has not required this) and pre-syncope/syncope who presents with concern for loss of consciousness and possible seizure-like activity following a COVID vaccine. On arrival, he was alert, well-appearing, in no acute distress. His vital signs were normal for age on room air. His physical exam was very reassuring as above with a normal neurologic and cardiac evaluation. Differential includes vasovagal/syncope in the setting of a known stressful trigger vs seizure given report of shaking in his extremities. We feel the latter is significantly less likely given the timeline of the events. Has no known seizure activity nor any triggers per history (fever, trauma, etc.). He also has a normal neurologic assessment. At this time we will defer neurology consults given low concern for seizure. It is possible that this represents a side effect of the vaccine however we also feel that this is less likely given the fact that his symptoms have been seconds after receiving the vaccine. Nonetheless we reported the symptoms to the pharmacist who recorded it in the database. We attained an EKG showing a known incomplete right bundle branch block (unchanged from 2013) and a slightly prolonged QTC of 477 (previously 451). I encourage patient to stay well-hydrated, well rested in the setting of his suspected syncopal episode this morning. I also suggested that for further vaccinations, that he lay down on the table and drink/eat well prior. We provided strict return to ED criteria in the setting of worsening symptoms. All questions were answered at the time of discharge. Mom verbalized her understanding and agreement of the plan. He was discharged in a stable condition with mom at side. **After patient was discharged, cardiology called the follow-up team due to the prolonged QTC to ensure that we were aware. I contacted the patient's PCP to do a follow-up EKG in 1 month's time.

12 yo male presenting with bilateral lower extremity paresthesias and confusion. Admitted to the hospital. Pending discharge to rehab facility. ED Note 5/19/21 Patient is a 12-year-old male with hypogammaglobulinemia, asthma, IBS who presents with weakness in his lower extremities. 6 days ago, patient had seafood and later that night vomited once, nonbloody, nonbilious. 4 days ago, he received the first dose of the Pfizer SARS-CoV2 vaccination. That day, he also felt some burning over the anterior parts of his bilateral ankles. Over the past 3 days, he has been sleeping a lot and had a headache. He has not had a fever or other muscle aches, no subsequent N/V, abdominal pain. Last night, he reported ankle pain to his mom. Today at school, he was playing kickball when he had the sensation that his ankles were not working/gave out and he fell to the ground. He had difficulty getting up and required a wheelchair. He did not lose consciousness, denied CP, palpitations, SOB, headache, vision change during or before that episode. He was not incontinent of urine/stool and had no abnormal movements noted at the time. Since then he has noted twitching in his thighs, calves and toes. He reports weakness throughout both lower extremities and has difficulty with intentional movements at the toes/ankles/knees, weakness in hips. He reports a burning sensation over the anterior ankles/dorsum of foot b/l. Denies fevers, chills, cough, SOB, CP, palpitations, abdominal pain, N/V/C. He endorses diarrhea 3x daily which is his baseline. He has panic attacks 3x daily w palpitations/SOB that self resolve. He has been on keflex for an ingrown toe nail for the last week. MRI performed with normal brain and spine. However, on repeat exam patient has diminished sensation in the bilateral feet and diminished ability to dorsiflex or plantarflex both ankles with very limited toe range of motion. Still with preserved reflexes in the patella and Achilles. Discussed at length with neurology and the family. Differential diagnosis at this point of functional neurological disorder versus Guillaine Barré syndrome. Neurology note 5/21/21 Patient is a 12yo M with hypogammaglobinemia, IBS, and poorly controlled anxiety, presenting with 4 days of lower extremity paresthesias and 1 day of hyperacute onset of lower extremity weakness and perhaps some mild confusion. History notable for covid vaccine three days prior to presentation and anixety surrounding covid and return to school. His general examination is notable for anxious affect with difficult to localize neurologic exam. Exam shows possible bilateral lower extremity weakness of TA and hamstring>quad/IP that is very challenging to grade due to poor effort and giveway, and decreased sensation in a bilateral stocking/glove distribution to all sensory modalities. MRI w/wo contrast brain and spinal cord normal on admission. LP perfromed in ED also normal. Given negative workup and history of anxiety with recent psychosocial stressors, most likely sudden onset weakness is secondary to a functional neurologic disorder. Plan for discharge to rehab pending PT evaluation.

My son developed a fever, brain fog, and his legs felt like they were burning. More worrisome was the heart pain he woke up with in the middle of the night and throughout the day on 5/20. He complained of a sharp stabbing pain on left side of his chest and said it was hard to take a deep breath. I gave him ibuprofen and he rested. I called his doctor and they said not to worry, these side effects were normal. I?m a bit nervous for him to get the second vaccine since he had the chest pain side effects as to why I?m reporting this. I?m surprised they give the same dose to a 80lb child, they do to a 200 lb grown man.

Patient started to develop a cough on the second day of the vaccine around 6 pm. The cough was accompanied by shortness of breath, given his asthma we assumed this was some asthma related reaction to the vaccine. Nonetheless, that evening he started to complain about chest pain every time he laid back on his bed. This symptom is not common in previous asthma attacks. Sitting up alleviated the symptom, chest pain and shortness of breath lasted for 2 nights (Sunday and Monday evening), by Tuesday he felt better. We assumed this was an asthma episode, but recent reports of Myocarditis leads us to believe the had a mild myocarditis episode, given the chest pain while lying down. He also had typical COVID vaccine symptoms such as low grade fever (100F), pain in the vaccination site, congestion, and itchy throat.

The next morning he woke up with arm hurting him (he couldn't lift it). He felt a little warm - had a low grade fever -99.something. He had a headache all day. He was very sluggish, tired. He did online school that day. He took a nap and laid down on the couch in between classes. He was really tired. I was giving him Tylenol every four hours. The first time he felt a little better, The second time, it didn't work. I called the doctor for advice and he told me to give him Children's Motrin. That seemed to do better. I gave that to him once that day. The next morning, he felt better. I gave him a Motrin anyway because he had a light headache. He did say he felt some heart racing. And he was a little tired. He called me from school around 11:30 am and he said that his heart has been racing through the whole morning - he was gym and said he couldn't run or anything but his heart was racing. I told him to go to t he school nurse - he had a pulse of 120. I met him there and I called the pediatrician and he saw him at 03:00. His pulse was high but not as high as before. He had rested in between. My son did see a cardiologist in June 2020- they put him on a heart monitor and she couldn't find anything at that time. At the regular doctor on the 19th, the doctor checked breathing and heart but did not have the materials at that location to do an EKG but said with the lowered heart rate just to watch and if it goes up again to go to Cardiologist we saw in June 2020. He rested some more and it went away on it's own. After that he was fine and no other issues. In fact, the next day he felt better and was running around and had energy and felt great.

Patient admitted with a diagnosis of myocarditis and encephalitis, currently still hospitalized at the time of this report. From EHR note: Patient is an otherwise healthy 12yM with recent Lyme disease (erythema migrans) transferred to hospital for hyponatremia, encephalitis, myocarditis. Initially intubated due to aspiration risk, now s/p extubation and stable on RA. Broad workup so far including consultations from neurology, cardiology, immunology, and infectious disease with unclear etiology, s/p MRI and LP with c/f covid-vaccine related myocarditis/encephalitis vs lyme carditis/meningoencephalitis vs less likely MISC vs other. Infectious testing so far negative, patient otherwise has returned to baseline behavior without any current symptoms. He is transferred to general for further workup and evaluation and close monitoring. Diagnosed with Lyme 19 days prior to admission, treated with amoxicillin; p/w headache, fever and vomiting so concern for encephalitis as above vs inflammatory process post-COVID or vaccine. Less likely meningitis given reassuring initial CSF studies. Negative COVID antibody. Resolving hyponatremia, thought to be likely SIADH. Given presentation and maternal history of albinism with immunodeficiency, broad workup sent. Also with c/f possible inflammatory response/MISC-C vs vaccine myocarditis.

A 12-year-old male patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Batch/lot number: unknown and Expire Date: unknown) on 22May2021 via unspecified route of administration as 1st dose, single dose for covid-19 immunisation. As medical history it was reported that, he had allergies and allergic to a lot of things, mold, feather dust and everything and dyspepsia. He had been taking Claritin for allergies (but not when he got the vaccine). She stated her son did not have any allergies to medications. Concomitant mediations were not reported. On 26May2021, 4 days after that he was complaining of chest pain. Caller wants to know if her son should get the 2nd dose of the vaccine. Caller stated, "He had other symptoms. On Tuesday the chest pain went away then complained again on Thursday. His doctor gave him an EKG and his heart rate was fine. Caller did not take him to the ER at the time because did not want a medical bill. His blood sugar spiked up. He had sweating, vomiting, diarrhea. He said he had "sharp pain in my chest and never felt that before" His blood sugar spiked up. He was dehydrated. He had ketones from it. Caller gave him extra insulin. He had chest pain from the vaccine. It was on Tuesday and happened again on Thursday but had not come back since then. It subsided. EKG was ok." No one was informed (doctors). I took him to the regular doctor. She did not know. She was not aware of the symptoms. They are not specialized in the medications they are giving. It was hard to give them any kind of referral. Both of us had vomiting, headaches and chills. He had never had chest pains from any vaccines. He had fatigue, these are symptoms form the covid shot. It was 4 days and then 6 days after the vaccine. A fast heartbeat. HCP are not going to help. If they are dosing the covid shots but they are not given the vaccines they did not want to do anything. There was no accountability. Caller having a hard time. No one can give me an answer, no one. Not from the experts, no one was telling me. The vaccine administration should have been through the doctors, they will not take your data without understanding the vaccines. All the kids 12 and up and all male and like my son and probably a lot more but they are not saying it. Caller scared. My son did not have a heart defect. Caller did not know. Heart inflammation; they need to know if it was safe or not. It was scary to know no one knows what was going on or not. Caller asked about myocarditis. The patient had heart burn before but said the chest pain was not that. With the symptoms the caller saw online, she thinks the patient had pericarditis. The patient's next dose was on 12Jun2021.The caller was reading online that people reported chest pain and ended up in the emergency room and the caller did not want that. All the events occurred on an unspecified date in May2021. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included blood glucose increased: spiked up on May2021, electrocardiogram: fine on 25May2021 EKG and his heart rate was fine, heart rate increased: fast on 25May2021. The outcome of event chest pain was recovered on an unspecified date in May2021. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of dehydrated. The outcome of blood sugar spiked up, sweating, vomiting, chills, diarrhea, felt sick, extreme fatigue, and slept on and off for about 4 days, dehydration, fast heartbeat and pericarditis was unknown. Information on Lot/Batch number was available. Additional information has been requested.

Patient received 2nd dose of Pfizer vaccine on 6/10/2021. Initially had typical symptoms of fatigue and arm pain. On 6/13/2021, woke up with central chest pain and "fluttering" of his heart. Mother read the Agency website concerning possible myocarditis after Covid vaccinations so then took him to the ED. The chest pain lasted about an hour (resolved in triage in the ED). There he had a normal ECG and chest x-ray. He was referred to see me in clinic on 6/15/2021. He had a normal echocardiogram. Due to the parental concern for possible myocarditis, I recommended a troponin which would show if his chest pain were possibly related to that. It returned mildly elevated at 0.21 ng/mL, prompting me to enter this as a possible mild case of myocarditis after vaccination.

Elevated troponin and CRP with recent COVID-19 vaccine, suspicious for post-vaccine myocarditis.

Patient was examined by his pediatrician and cleared for physical exercise on 06/01/2021; 4 days before receiving his 1st COVID19 shot on 06/05/2021. On 06/07/2021 we dropped patient off at Soccer Camp. At 10am he started basic soccer ball control drills, which did not include rigorous exercise. At 10:30am we received a call from him, asking for us to pick him up as he had almost blacked out a few times. We arrived at the sports field at 10:40am. I found patient to be red faced, sweaty, but cohesive. He described the following symptoms occurred during mild exercise: difficulty breathing, thirsty, fast heartbeat, "black things" over eyes, preventing clear vision, difficulty focusing, difficulty hearing, feeling faint He took a water break and used his pro-air inhaler, as he thought he might have been having his 1st asthma attack (he's only ever presented with slight wheezing or night time cough). After a short break, his symptoms subsided, so he re-joined the group. After one more soccer drill, the symptoms came back again, but this time he experienced very hard palpitations and the feeling that his shoes were squeezing his feet. At that point he asked for permission to call to us and have us collect him. We took him home and monitored him for a while. He seemed calm and symptom free. I had him shower and he was fine for the rest of the day. The following day I had him jog on our treadmill for a period. He was symptom free. I increased inclination on the treadmill and he handled it ok without any of the previous symptoms. However, now realizing that he was within the 3 day window of his COVID shot, I decided not take him back to the soccer camp. As of 06/13/2021 he has not complained of any symptoms returning. That said, he also has not performed any significant outdoor exercise since then either, besides walking.

He played basketball that night and had to press the Holter button 8 times while playing when he was experiencing chest pain. When he got home from practice, he felt weak and dizzy with associated chest pain. Mom notes his nails were blue/purple, and he was "lethargic" . Symptoms improved with ibuprofen. Patient did not want to do usual activity, mom called cardiology who recommended going to ED. Patient has not had chest pain since coming home from practice on 6/15/21. He was admitted to hospital on 6/16/21. Repeat high sensitivity troponin was 0.82 on 6/16/21 and repeated on 6/17/21 was 0.41. Cardiology consulted. Cardiac MRI performed with normal results. He was dizzy on 6/17/21 when he got up to use the restroom, self-resolved. Cardiology evaluated him and cleared him for discharge with outpatient follow-up and self-limitation with activity.

This is a dangerous shot. My son woke up early in the morning in terrible pain and in a cold sweat. This has NEVER happened before! Then he fainted. The next day he was still sick, fainted again and hit his head, needed stitches next to his eye and had a mild concussion from it. He could have been blinded in that eye. This website was a goose chase to get to! There are probably tons of parents who can?t report the adverse reactions their kids are suffering because of how complicated it is to even figure out where to report it. You should be ashamed of this process which lends itself to the under reporting of adverse reactions to COVID-19 vaccinations!

Received vaccine in clinic room. Eight minutes after receiving COVID-PFE vaccine, patient complained he was ready to go and felt drowsy. The temperature did seem warm in the clinic room, so I escorted them 30 feet to the lobby. As the patient passed through the door to the lobby, his gait, he seemed to lose his ability to remain upright and started to collapse. I was able to catch him prior to hitting the floor. He never lost consciousness, but we moved him into a clinic room to evaluate and further monitor him. His blood pressure was a little low initially at 110/50, but came up to 112/60 (closer to his normal) after five to ten minutes. His pulse was strong and regular. We gave him a cool, wet compress to the forehead, cool water to drink, and chocolate candy. He was able to answer questions appropriately. We monitored him for another 30 minutes before releasing him. His mother was present with him and is a nurse practitioner. I called the Mom on 6/22/21 (the day after the event). She (Mom) reports the patient went home, laid down for about 45 minutes, then played video games. I recommend she considers getting the second dose at either Hospital, so that a higher level of care is available if needed.

Date of Admission: 6/19/2021 Date of Death: 6/20/2021 Primary Care Physician: No primary care provider on file. REASON FOR ADMISSION: Patient is a 13-year-old previously healthy male who was admitted after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest with ROSC after CPR for 15 minutes in the field, found to be in the context of large cerebellar hemorrhage secondary to brain lesion (AVM vs tumor). BRIEF SUMMARY OF HOSPITALIZATION: Patient was intubated prior to arrival to the ED. Upon arrival he was started on epinephrine and norepinephrine drips to maintain perfusion and was administered bicarbonate x2. Head CTA was obtained and was notable for midbrain hemorrhage and tonsillar herniation, and no contrast enhanced blood flow in the brain. Brain death exams were completed at 09:59 and 14:20. APNEA test was performed at 13:30, which is the official time of brain death. Official cause of death was brainstem herniation from intracranial hemorrhage. Mechanical ventilation was continued to allow family time to grieve and perform last rites. Time of cardiac death after mechanical ventilation withdrawal was 18:36. HOSPITAL COURSE BY PROBLEM: FEN/Renal/Endo: #Central DI He received 1.5 L of normal saline bolus in the ED and an additional 3 L of ringers lactate bolus overnight in the ICU to maintain perfusion and decrease heart rate. His sodium was 141 upon presentation but reached a maximum of 160 due to central diabetes insipidus. He was started on 0.45% normal saline at 100 mL/hr to improve hypernatremia, which was monitored Q1h until normonatremic. He additionally required vasopressin drip to be started due to central DI, which was increased to a maximum of 20 mU/kg/hr. CV: At time of admission, epinephrine was running at 0.1 mcg/kg/min and norepinephrine was 0.1 mcg/kg/hr. Norepinephrine was increased shortly thereafter to 0.12 mcg/kg/min. In the morning after admission, he had tachycardia to the 190s, which appeared to be narrow complex. Epinephrine and norepinephrine were discontinued. Two doses of adenosine were administered (6 mg first dose, 12 mg second dose) due to suspected SVT. The rate decreased for ~4 seconds after the second dose however returned to ~180. EKG arrived which showed sinus tachycardia so no further medications or cardiac interventions were done. Fluid rates were increased to 2x MIVF rate and additional 500 mL bolus of LR was administered. Norepinephrine and epinephrine were restarted and escalated due to low blood pressures in the early afternoon.to allow family time with patient. Both titrated to effect. Pulm: Patient was mechanically ventilated to achieve normal pH, normocarbia, and high arterial oxygen tension per brain death protocol. He had no primary pulmonary disease during this admission. Neuro: #Intraparenchymal hemorrhage #Tonsillar herniation Neurosurgery was consulted. Mannitol x1 and hypertonic saline 23% x1 were administered to decrease intracranial pressures. Keppra 2g was administered for seizure prophylaxis. No sedation was needed during patient's hospitalization. PERTINENT STUDIES & CONSULTS: Pediatric neurology Neurosurgery PENDING TESTS RESULTS: None RECOMMENDATIONS AND FOLLOWUP: None No future appointments. PHYSICAL EXAMINATION: BP 108/78 | Pulse (!) 144 | Temp 36.5 °C (97.7 °F) | Resp (!) 15 | Ht 1.65 m (5' 4.96") | Wt 46.5 kg (102 lb 8.2 oz) | SpO2 99% | BMI 17.08 kg/m² Estimated body mass index is 17.08 kg/m² as calculated from the following: Height as of this encounter: 1.65 m (5' 4.96").

13 year old who received his second Pfizer COVID vaccine on July 3, 2021 (3 days ago). He describes a low grade fever on the day after the vaccine which did not initially concern him. He presented to the ER yesterday with complaints of midsternal chest pain and shortness of breath and a vague history of palpitations that started yesterday morning and continued to progress over the day. The chest pain did not vary with position and was not aggravated with respiratory effort. He had an elevated troponin and CRP and was admitted for management/observation. His chest pain has resolved since starting Ibuprofen (600 mg q 6 hours). Serial troponins peaked at 22.9, now trending downward. Notable changes on serial EKG's with resolving ST segment elevation and T wave inversion. The echocardiogram showed low normal LV function but was otherwise normal. PT presentation is consistent with the newly recognized post Covid vaccine myocarditis in adolescent males. Timing of the chest pain in relation to the vaccine, EKG and echo findings and elevated troponins all support the presumed diagnosis of myocarditis. He met the criteria for a cardiac MRI to be obtained prior to discharge- results pending.

He woke up with chest pain in the upper right quadrant at midnight and then it intensified when he was breathing deep breaths. They woke him up when he was sleeping and did not go away. Then, it continued through the next day and we asked our doctor if we needed to keep an eye on him because of all the reporting and stuff about the heart problems. They did a triage consult visit to see if it could be an adverse event from the vaccine. The course of action was to take 2 ibuprofen every 4 hours and use ice and heat to see if the pain improved to rule out musculoskeletal situations because that was what they thought it was. We did that for 2 days and then the pain moved to his back upper right quadrant and we noticed a rash all over his abdomen and we were not sure where he got that. Based on the fact that the pain moved the doctor was more confident that it was not an adverse event.

Patient received his second dose of covid vaccine on 07/12/21. He seemed fine and left our immunization area. Approximately 5 minutes later, his brother came back to the pharmacy to inform us that the patient was sitting down near the restrooms and not feeling well. I, along with another pharmacist, went to assess him. He said he was lightheaded and was feeling nauseous. We sat with him for approximately 10 minutes and checked his blood pressure twice. His blood pressure was high the first time we took it, but it returned to normal after a few minutes when we took it the second time. We subsequently found out from his mother that he fell/fainted in the restroom due to his dizziness. He was unhurt from the fall.

Patient is a 14 YO male with no previous medical history that received the Pfizer vaccine administered into his left Deltoid at 1406. He was sent to the observation area where the nurse noted him looking pale at 1410. His mother was present during this whole event. He was taken over to the medical tent for privacy and further evaluation. He was complaining of being light headed. He was given apple juice and crackers as he had stated that he had not eaten or drank anything all day. At 1430 his VS read BP 132/80, HR 145, O2 99%. At this time he was lying down and feet elevated, shaking, pale, and cold. Lung sounds clear. Nausea but not needing to throw up he was covered up to try and keep him warm. At 1440 his blood pressure was 130/82, HR 130, 02 98% At this time he was lying flat with feet elevated, shaking, pale, and cold. His lung sounds clear. Nausea, but not needing to throw up. At 1450 BP 138/74, HR 120-135, 02 98%. Symptoms had not changed at this point except he mentioned his ears felt cold, although they were warm to touch. He was laid on his left side at this point to try and lower his HR, which did come down to 115-125 when on his L side. We did not take a BP at this point as we wanted him to be on his back when taking them. At 1515 he was laid back on his back to see how his HR would do and how his BP was. BP 138/60, HR 135, 02 98%. Again symptoms were the same except he was complaining of colors being more ?dull?, and his teeth being numb. At this point his pupils were noted to be +8, equal and reactive. 1521 VS read 138/50, HR 135, 02 98%. Vision still dull and pupils unchanged from 1515. He was laid on his R side to see if this would lower his HR. It was brought down to 120-130 on his R side. We gave him a cookie to snack on to see if that would help with any of the paleness, shakiness, and light headiness. He was able to take a few small bites. Hands pale and washed, with +1 bilateral radial pulses. 1529 he was sat up slowly to try to get him to hydrate, as it was apparent he needed fluids onboard. His BP read 142/80, HR 124, 02 98%. He was still complaining of lightheadedness. After sitting up and drinking half a bottle of water and some cookie, he stated that colors were becoming more vibrant. He noticed my eyes were very blue, which previously he had stated they were grey. He stated his lightheadedness had improved and that he was feeling better. We had him sit up for a while and his color started to come back, although his L arm was still pale, of note this was the Vaccinated arm. At 1546 his VS read 150/82, HR 117, O2 99% while sitting. His only complaint was feeling like the air he was breathing ?was cold?. At 1607 he was stood up and when doing so his HR went to 140. After standing for about 4 minutes his BP read 120/82, HR 114, O2 98%. His pupils +6 , equal, round, and reactive. He was feeling way better and his color in his L hand was back equal to his right. He was slowly walked around a chair just to see how he would do with activity. His HR was anywhere from 94-120 when walking around the chair, he complained of no dizziness, or other symptoms. At this point he had finished 2 apple juices, crackers, a cookie, and a bottle of water for a total of 1.5 L of fluid. He was sat back down in the chair to rest and see how things went for a while. His HR was anywhere from 109-120 when in the chair, although he did appear very anxious through this whole process. When he was given a task it appeared that his HR was a few points lower. His final HR was 109, BP 130/82, O2 98%. Of note he did complain of his feet and fingers feeling tingly a few times during this process. Sometimes his feet would be tingly when elevated and then when the garbage can holding them up was readjusted it resolved. These were intermittent complaints. At this point it is 1630. He has responded to fluids and is stable to go home with his mom. It was recommended for him to increase his fluids tonight, and to eat something. He was sent with a bottle of water. It was also recommended to get a pulse ox machine from a pharmacy so that his HR could be monitored and if it does not come down under 100 by tomorrow to make an appointment with his MD to follow up. If any of these symptoms were to come back or if his mom had any concern at all it was recommended to take him to the ED for observation. It was also recommended to follow up with his primary even though he left stable. Throughout this process, I considered administering Epinephrine. The problem was his BP was not low and we could not get his HR to come down. I did not want to increase his HR any more than it already was unless I was absolutely necessary. Given that he responded to fluids, it was decided not to administer it. Given that it took him 2.5 hours to recover from this vaccine, I strongly recommend that he does not get his second dose. I consider this to be an adverse reaction, and his mom was in agreement.

Client received his 1st Pfizer vaccination (Lot# EW0187, EXP 08/31/21) in his left arm at 19:15 from RN. Client?s parents and sister were with him. Client?s parents only spoke Spanish and an interpreter was present. After receiving his shot, client sat in a chair next to his sister while RN administered a shot to her. Five minutes later client stated he felt nauseous. RN immediately called out to Vaccine Runner RN and Check-in Nurse who were in the hallway to get an EMT. Check-in Nurse radioed for an EMT to come to station 3 while Vaccine Runner RN rushed to the EMT room to ensure an EMT got the call. Check-in Nurse stayed with the client and placed a trash can next to him in case he vomited. RN stated the client looked pale and clammy. At 19:26 EMT1 arrived at station 3 and collected the client?s medical history. Interpreter was also translating the EMT?s questions and statements to the client?s parents. Client stated he had no known allergies, no underlying conditions, and is not currently taking any medications. Client also stated he was not experiencing shortness of breath, chest pain, or having trouble breathing. EMT2 arrived at station 3 at 19:27 and brought the client a vomit bag. The client had not vomited, but still felt nauseous. EMT1 gave the client a bottle of water and juice, and took client?s vitals at 19:28 (HR: 64, BP: 120/70). Client stated he felt a lot better. While walking out of station 5 Lead RN saw individuals grouped together at station 3 with the EMT and arrived at station 3 at 19:28. Lead RN was updated on client?s status. Lead RN observed that the client was mildly pale and clammy and asked client?s mother if his current coloring was normal for the client. Interpreter translated to both parents and client?s mother stated that the client did look a little pale. Client stated he felt better and was just nervous about getting the shot. At 19:30 Lead RN asked client to try and stand up. Once client was standing, Lead RN asked client if he felt dizzy and client stated no. Client stated he felt just fine. Lead RN and EMT?s directed the client to the observation room to sit in a zero-gravity chair for additional monitoring of 30 minutes. EMTs walked the client and his family to the observation room and sat him in the zero-gravity chair. Client stated he felt much better and at 19:47 EMT1 took client?s vitals (HR: 66, BP: 100/70, SpO2: 98). EMT1 stated client?s color was returning. EMT1 took client?s vitals again at 20:04 (HR: 67, BP: 104/78, SpO2: 99). Lead RN arrived in observation room at 20:10 with Lead Ancillary to check on client who stood up and stated he felt good. Lead RN observed that client was no longer pale or clammy. Lead RN educated parents and client on potential side effects vs adverse effects of the vaccine. Lead RN further instructed client and parents to see the client?s HCP or visit urgent care if client started to experience additional common side effects for more than 24-48 hours and to call 911 if the client began to experience trouble breathing, shortness of breath, or chest pain. Lead Ancillary translated all the information to the client in Spanish. Lead RN observed the client leaving with his family at 20:15. Client left walking with a steady gate.

Patient was administered the vaccine. After administration we stood talking to his mother who had questions. After about 2 minutes they turned to walk away and he lost consciousness and hit his head on a counter. I unfortunately did not witness him falling. He regained consciousness almost immediately and I told him he needed to stay laying down for a few minutes first. After a few minutes he said he felt fine and we moved him to a chair. Within a few minutes, he became ill again so we had him lay down again in the consultation room. He then laid there for about 15 minutes before we moved him to a chair. He stated that before he lost consciousness his heart was racing. His mother states he's never had any problems with vaccinations in the past. After sitting for the second time he said he felt fine except where he hit his head which was a little sore. We contacted the father later that night and he said that he too had a similar episode with a needle stick a few years prior. The patient felt better later night per his father.

14yo male that was admitted to our hospital's cardiology service prior to after an episode of acute onset tachycardia (possible atrial tachycardia), dizziness, headache at school. He had his first covid vaccine 8 days prior to the event at school. He has a coincidental diagnosis of an anomalous left coronary off the right aortic valve cusps, but his coronary course is unusual where he would be very unlikely to be at risk for sudden cardiac arrest. He had an ECHO in the ED that showed a mild left ventricular dysfunction (EF 45%). He underwent a cardiac MRI on 5/28/2021 was done that was normal without myocardial edema or scarring. His ejection fraction on that study (24 hours later) was 54%. He was discharged home and had a stress test the following week (6/1/2021) that showed blocked PACs at peak exercise (a very usual finding for an otherwise healthy kid) and possible slow atrial tachycardia at baseline. His laboratory evaluation including CRP and ESR was normal. 72 hour Holter monitor showed blocked PACs and no supraventricular or ventricular tachycardia. Mother reports that he is "back to baseline" May 31st. Of note, his father was covid positive with headache in October 2020. The patient also had a headache for 1 week without fever. It was presumed that he had covid as well, but was not tested per PCP recommendation.

This patient received their second Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine on 6/4/2021. The patient began experiencing arm pain which migrated to his chest on 6/6/2021. The pain resolved but returned with increased severity on 6/7/2021, prompting medical evaluation. The pain was described as a pressure sensation in the center of the chest and in bilateral arms. Upon initial evaluation, he was found to have an abnormal EKG with ST segment changes. Troponin was significantly elevated. He was transferred to the hospital. A transthoracic echo was obtained and was normal. He was hospitalized on the pediatric cardiology service, admitted on 6/8/2021. Troponin trended down during his stay. He was started on lisinopril. He was discharged home on 6/9/2021 with plan for outpatient pediatric cardiology follow up.

I was on call as attending physician when this patient was admitted. Physician cared for this patient as the pediatric cardiology inpatient attending during his hospital course.

Exactly one week after the 2nd shot, patient was at a track meet and suddenly had a sharp pain in his chest. It hurt when he inhaled, and he didn't compete. He has never experienced this kind of chest pain before. We thought it was an allergic reaction (hayfever?) because it seemed harder to breathe, so we gave him a benadryl and later went home. He was tired and took a long nap. Later he felt better. But it was scary. I think he underreported how he felt, to not alarm us parents. He admits this now. There's not logical cause other than the vaccine ( no new foods, medications, experiences). However, he didn't have any other notable side effects from the 1st or 2nd dose, except tiredness and arm soreness the first days.

Prior to administration of the vaccine, I discussed with mom and patient about previous immunizations and the YES response to previously fainting or felt dizzy post immunization. Mom proceeded to state that he has a strong vaso-vagal response to needles/immunizations and he has fainted multiple times during and after immunizations. The patient appeared calm, so I did some breathing exercises with him and when I determined that he was calm, I administered the vaccine. Patient was still sitting upright, I asked him to continue to breathe slowly and deeply. I asked if he would like a water, and so I went to grab it from the pharmacy lab. Patient then stated he was dizzy and was going to pass out. He did not pass out, and I asked him if he would like to lay down. I put down a towel for him and then he started to throw up. I got a cold washcloth for his neck. He started sweating profusely (essentially a marked cholinergic response). I got him to lay down after some more vomiting . He stated that his vision was blurry, but he was laying down calmly. after 25 minutes of reclining, he stated he was starting to feel a bit better. I offered a 25mg diphenhydramine tablet to help with residual nausea. He stated he was better and go shop with his family. They did not return to the pharmacy, so as of my last interaction, he was fully recovered from the event.

Mother was calling about the Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine and wanted to report a side-effect her son had after second dose. She added they just got back from doctor office. This all happened after the second vaccination, ever since he got the second one on 22Jun2021. He has had headache almost every day since then. He had massive nose bleeds this week on Tuesday and Wednesday. After the first vaccine he had a headache for a few days also but it was not bad at all. After the second, it was constant. It did not last all day, it came and went. She was unable to answer if symptoms were still going on and stated they come and go. The nose bleeds he has not had any today so far. They took some blood they are checking, including his clotting platelets or whatever that is, and they are checking to see if he has been bit by a tick. Just for precautionary reasons. She does not know results yet as he just got the blood today and they just got back from the doctor. When the headaches got bad, he would take Tylenol the first few days and then he took Motrin. She corrected and stated he took Ibuprofen, not Motrin. The adverse events did not result in emergency room visit but resulted in physician office visit. The outcome of the events was unknown.

On 6/6, he developed substernal nonradiating chest pain, as well as low-grade temperature to 99.6. Pain persisted, so he presented to the emergency department on 6/6. He did not have respiratory symptoms, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, conjunctival injection, new rashes. In the emergency department he was afebrile with normal vital signs.

Pfizer is aware of the observations of myocarditis that occurred predominantly in a population of young men who received the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine. Adverse events are regularly and thoroughly reviewed and we have not observed a higher rate of myocarditis than what would be expected in the general population. A causal link to the vaccine has not been established. There is no evidence at this time to conclude that myocarditis is a risk associated with the use of Pfizer/BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine. More than 260 million doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine have been administered globally. Serious adverse events unrelated to, but close in timing to vaccination, are expected to occur at a similar rate in vaccinated individuals as they would in the overall population. [for non-HCPs]: we refer you to your healthcare provider to discuss this topic. Your healthcare provider knows your medical history, can discuss the risks and benefits of the vaccine, and can provide vaccination recommendations to you. Pfizer is aware of the reports of myocarditis in recipients of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine. More than 260 million people globally have now been vaccinated with the Pfizer/BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine and we have not observed a higher rate of myocarditis than what would be expected in the general population. A causal link to the vaccine has not been established. Serious adverse events unrelated to but close in timing to vaccination will likely occur at a similar rate in vaccinated individuals as they would in the overall population.

PT had his first dose of Pfizer vaccine at 5pm on 21st. He looked low energy at night. We felt his forehead and he was warmer than usual. However, thermometer did not show he had a fever. He looked much better in the morning on 22nd. We thought that was it. Only after a week did PT tell us he had more reaction. However, because he was well then, we did not pay too much attention. When we learned of the link between Covid 19 vaccine and Myocarditis, we asked him in detail again. Here are his responses. He started feeling his throat hurt when he had dinner that around 7pm. It lasted only that night. He started feeling chest pain around dinner time too. It only hurt when he moved. That chest pain lasted longer and disappeared on the 23rd. He started feeling there were air bubbles under his skin on the flat part of his left shoulder (above the injection site and below his neck) on the 22nd. He did not see them. He just felt them. When he pressed them with fingers, he felt them popping. This feeling lasted for a total of three days. He could feel the amount of air bubbles become less over the three days. We have not seen any side effect in the news like his. We are not sure that he should get his second dose. Please someone could advise us, please send us an email. Much appreciated.

He was feeling a little short of breath and he had heart palpitations. We went to the ER and they did lots of testing. He had a fever and Sepsis testing. All results were normal and they gave him a Liter of fluids. He was discharged after two hours and his pulse was still high at 105-110. We monitored him and his heart rate was slowing and he started to feel better. His Endocrinologist had him take a double dose of Hydrocortisone the next day. His improvement progressed and by the fourth day the symptoms were gone. He was able to do his normal activities but tired and worn out from the ordeal. One week later he had a slightly elevated heart rate but it resolved quickly. He had had a local reaction in his arm with swelling and a rash after the first vaccine.

ER recommended purchase a pulse oxi meter to test heart rate at home, which I purchased the next day and he's been in the normal range. He is scheduled to take the 2nd dose June 18th, but I will not let him get it since he had a severe reaction to the 1st dose.

Patient is a healthy 15 year old male presenting with chest pain in the setting of recent SARS-CoV2 vaccination. He was in his usual state of health until he received the second dose of the Pfizer/BNT SARS-CoV2 vaccination on Thursday 6/10. Shortly after and into the following day, he developed fatigue, chills, and a headache, which resolved within 24 hours. However, early this morning at around 2am, he awoke with sharp central chest pain associated with some shortness of breath, radiating to his left, prompting him to present to the ED. Initially presented to Hospital ED. Vitals stable. Labs notable for troponin 0.07 and d-dimer 1.48. EKG with sinus rhythm, ST elevation in inferior leads. Given ibuprofen 600mg and contacted Cardiology, who recommended transfer to another ED for echocardiogram and further evaluation. Here in the ED, vital stable, exam non-focal. Labs notable for troponin 0.13 and CRP 3.0; CBC, chem 10, LFTs, BNP, all within normal limits. CXR normal. Echo done which showed normal function (prelim read). Seen by ID who recommended standard workup for vaccine-induced myocarditis. He was admitted to the floor in stable condition. Hospital Course: Due to rising troponin during hospital day 1 (peak 0.23), patient was treated with IVIG 2 g/kg (6/14) and methylprednisone 30 mg BID (6/14 - 6/15). On 6/15 a cardiac MRI was obtained that showed a small area of late gadolinium enhancement of the LV with normal function. Troponin was trended every 12 hours and had decreased to 0.11 on 6/15 AM. He was transitioned to oral prednisone 30 mg BID to complete a total steroid course of 5 days (6/14 - 6/18). During admission he was found to be EBV PCR positive with all other viral testing including EBV serologies pending. It is still thought this is likely due to post-vaccine inflammation and not viral myocarditis but serologies should be followed up as outpatient. By time of discharge, patient was well-appearing, vitals stable, demonstrating good PO intake. Prescriptions sent to preferred pharmacy. Follow up with cardiology. Discharge instructions and return precautions reviewed with patient and parent, who expressed good understanding and agreement with plan. Reasons for new, changed, and discontinued medications: Prednisone for myocarditis Famotidine for stomach protection while on prednisone Discharged home with follow up tests scheduled for 6/17/21.

Patient received second COVID vaccine on 6/4. Chest pain developed on 6/6. He presented to hospital where EKG showed ST segment changes and troponin was elevated. he was transferred to our facility. In our emergency department his EKG was abnormal. His troponin was elevated, along with CRP, AST, and ALT. An echocardiogram on 6/7 showed moderately depressed LV systolic function (EF = 34%). He was admitted to the pediatric cardiology service. His picture was felt to be consistent with myopericarditis. During admission, he was treated with NSAIDs and lisinopril was initiated. Repeated echo on 6/9 showed normal LV systolic function. he was discharged home on 6/9 on ibuprofen and lisinopril with plan for pediatric cardiology follow up in 4-6 weeks. Given proximity of patient's onset of symptoms to the second Pfizer vaccine, and given similar cases reported in the literature, the chief concern is whether this patient's symptoms were related to the second Pfizer COVID vaccine. Please note, I did not care for this patient, but am reporting this case on behalf of the attending physician who cared for this patient while he was hospitalized.

Starting from the night of the second day (i.e., June 10th), the patient feels chest pain. The pain also extends to neck and left shoulder. Deep breath aggravates the pain. The patient could not fall asleep. He had a light fever at the night of vaccination day but the fever was gone before the chest pain. Single lead ECG with Watch has been measured and sent to a friend of the parents' who is a physian, and no abnormal sign was shown from ECG. 400 mg Advil (ibuprofen) was given in the coming morning around 7 AM and the patient was able to fall asleep and symptons were gradually relieved.

Patient felt like he was having an asthma attack on the night of the 21st when playing outside with friends (running and climbing). He has never had asthma, but said his chest was tight and it was hard to breathe. He said when he stopped and sat for a while it seemed to get better. He went to sleep at about 2am and woke me up at 5:20am crying. His chest hurt really bad and the pain was traveling down his arm. When we took his blood pressure at home it was 205/125 and his heart rate was 112. We went to the emergency room at hospital immediately. Once there they did an EKG. The doctor said there was not reason to be alarmed, but the EKG showed signs of possible pericarditis. They then took blood work, a urine sample, an xray and did an echocardiogram. The doctor told us that the blood work did not show any signs of an actual heart attack or any damage done to the heart. She said the echocardiogram showed some fluid build up in the pericardia sac surrounding his heart. She said this is considered pericardia. She mentioned that some young men are having this happen after being vaccinated. She said we seem to have caught it early. They gave him Tordal through his IV when we were there and that took his pain away. We were told to follow up with a cardiologist within 24-48 hours. We have an appointment at Hospital tomorrow at 10:45am.

15 yo M with no PMH p/w 1 day of chest pain and elevated troponin and lateral ST segment elevations. On Wednesday 6/30 he had his second dose of Pfizer COVID vaccine. There after he had headache, tactile fever, fatigue and myalgias which resolved by Friday 7/2. On Friday at midnight, he awoke with 7/10 sharp substernal chest pain, non radiating. No recent trauma to the chest. He took Tylenol at home which did not relieve the pain. No recent URI sx over the last month. The last time he remembers having URI sx was 1.5 years ago. He does endorse "one or two sneezes" over the past month, which he attributes to allergies. Today 7/3, he presented to urgent care center where he got an EKG, which was concerning for ST elevations. He was given ASA which did not relieve the pain. He was sent to hospital for further work up where he had a Troponin to 1.59, CRP to 36, AST to 79, ALT to 64, Alkphos to 74, BNP to 119, ESR to 10, and WBC to 13.4. EKG showed ST elevation in I, II, precordial leads V4 V5 V6. CXR wnl. He was given IV toradol at hospital, which alleviated his CP. He was transferred to ED for further evaluation. On arrival to the ED on 7/3, he was HDS afebrile, with BP 111/69, HR of 80, and satting 100% on RA. His CP had resolved to a level of 0/10. Additional labs were obtained including repeat CBC (with WBC 10K, Hgb of 14), normal ESR of 20, normal D-dimer of less than 0.27, BMP wnl, elevated LFTs with AST 103, ALT of 61, elevated LDH to 293, normal GGT and alk phos, normal BNP to 28, elevated CRP to 3, and an extremely elevated troponin of 3.15. NP swab for COID, Influenza A/B, and RSV were negative. CXR wnl but did note findings consistent with degenerative disc disease at one level in the mid-distal thoracic spine. Hospital Course: Patient was admitted to the cardiology floor for continued monitoring of his troponin levels and EKG. He was then treated with IVIG 2g/kg and started on methylprednisolone IV x 8 doses. His chest discomfort improved by day 2 of admission. An echocardiogram was performed which did not show any cardiac dysfunction. His troponin downtrended while on IV steroids, therefore he was transitioned over to PO steroids which he tolerated well. On day of discharge, his troponin levels were continuing to trend down, and EKG was WNL. Cardiac MRI was performed and showed late gadolinium enhancement in the left ventricle. He had occasional NSVTs/PVCs; he was started on Bisoprolol 2.5mg daily to prevent arrhythmias after discharge. He was discharged home with a Holter monitor to be worn for 4 days. Viral myocarditis studies were sent and all negative. By time of discharge, patient was well-appearing, vitals stable, demonstrating good PO intake. Prescriptions sent to preferred pharmacy. Follow up with cardiology in place. Discharge instructions and return precautions reviewed with patient and parent, who expressed good understanding and agreement with plan. Patient will follow up in cardiology clinic next week with a repeat MRI 3-6 months. Of note, CXR from 7/3 with incidental findings suspicious for degenerative disc disease at one level in the mid-distal thoracic spine. This should be followed by his primary care physician as an out patient. Reasons for new, changed, and discontinued medications: - Bisoprolol 2.5mg daily (for prevention of NSVT) - Prednisone 30mg BID (myocarditis) - Famotidine 20mg daily (while on steroids) Reasons for new, changed, and discontinued equipment: NA Relevant Diagnostic Images/Studies: Cardiac MRI (7/7): ? Normal biventricular size and systolic function. ? No regional wall motion abnormalities. ? Suggestion of increased T2 signal intensity/edema. ? Positive myocardial late gadolinium enhancement without functional correlate. ? No significant valvular dysfunction. ? No coronary artery aneurysms. ? Small pericardial effusion. Echocardiogram (7/3): ? Normal valvular function. ? Normal left ventricular size and systolic function. ? Normal diastolic function indices. ? Reduced longitudinal strain with normal circumferential strain. ? Normal appearing proximal coronary arteries. ? Qualitatively normal right ventricular systolic function. ? No pericardial effusion present. ? A comprehensive anatomic survey was not performed at this time.

Patient admitted fur to chest pain and dyspnea and found to have myopericarditis after 2nd dose of COVID-19 Pzifer vaccine. Vaccine was administered at pharmacy. First dose received on 5/15/2021, second dose on 6/5/2021. Fatigue and chills started a few hours after second dose and then developed shortness of breath, nausea, emesis and 8/10 midsternal chest pain. Presented to an urgent care facility where CXR and EKG were obtained. EKG showed early repolarizations. Labs were obtained at a local ED and showed elevated troponins, initially 11k and then to 20k and peaked there. BNP was within normal limits. Subsequent EKG showed diffuse ST-segment elevations concerning for acute pericarditis. No prior infections or symptoms like this previously. He was given colchicine at outside facility prior to transfer. At hospital he was continued on ibuprofen and monitored with telemetry and had ECHO and cardiac MRI. Latter was consistent with myopericarditis. ECHO showed normal function. He received PPI while on NSAIDs. His symptoms resolved and he was discharged to home on 6/10/2021 with activity restrictions and plan to follow-up with peds cardiology. Of note, there was an error submitting the initial VAERS report for this patient during the admission, therefore, this delayed report is being submitted.

The patient was given the first dose of the Pfizer covid vaccine, subsequently he was standing waiting with his mother for his younger sibling to receive his vaccine and after I had administered that, I turned around and saw that he was starting to lean over and his mother and I went to grab him as he went down and he fainted momentarily. We slowed his descent, but he had a small abrasion on his head (I think from the carpet). He said he felt dizzy and nauseous. I'm not sure if he was also watching while I was giving his sibling the shot and that exacerbated the situation. We had him checked out by EMT and he was fine after the initial fainting.

A 15-year-old male patient received second dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE, Solution for injection, Batch/Lot Number: EW0173 F) via an unspecified route of administration in left arm on 07Jun2021 as dose 2, single for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included ongoing known allergy in mosquito bite (sketter syndrome) an allergic reaction to mosquito bites, as his son has grown up it has become less and less relevant. Concomitant medications were not reported. Patient previously received first dose of bnt162b2 (Dose:01 Lot number: EW0171 Anatomical Location: Arm left) on 17May2021 for COVID-19 immunization. It was unknown if the patient received 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, the patient been tested for COVID-19. History of all previous immunization with the Pfizer vaccine considered as suspect (or patient age at first and subsequent immunizations dates of birth or immunizations are not available. It was reported that my son traveled on 16May2021. Covid test prior traveling negative. On Jun2021, 4 days after vaccination develop GI, heavier insomia, dierrea, vomiting, fever, hypotensive, dehydraeted. On 11Jun2021 experienced pericardial effusion. On an unknown date Jun2021, developed into MISC and was intubated. The patient was hospitalized from 14 Jun 2021 to 6 Jul 2021. Treatment was received. On 15Jun2021, admission at (withheld), (Hidratation IV and IVIGs). On 16Jun2021 condition worsen and Intubated in (withheld). On 17Jun2021, transfer to (withheld) (7 days at PICU, another 7 at pediatrics). On Jun2021, developed a strong insomnia and headache. Events resulted in emergency room/department or urgent care. Treatment received for the adverse event was MISC protocol IVIGsAnakinra, esteroids and others. On an unknown date, Patient said he had 4 vaccines. His son spent 7 days in the ICU and 7 days in the pediatric unit was discharged from the hospital yesterday. Reported that other researchers studying MIS-C in children have seen how the epithelium cells in the intestine become loose, then the protein goes through the blood stream and can start a cytokine storm and asked if we have studies regarding how much S protein is being produced by different age groups; can it be checked how much S protein is going into the bloodstream to see adverse effects of the vaccine and stated he needs more data to see if his son was possibly infected with Covid during his vaccination period or what he previously infected and absolutely asymptomatic. Most MIS-C occurs 4-6 weeks after having Covid. States that for his son to travel he had to have antigen testing, which was negative. His son did well until 3-4 days after the second shot. States at that time his son became ill with vomiting, diarrhea, headache, and insomnia. She took her son to the hospital and they found him to be hypotensive and dehydrated. They started intravenous fluids and their protocols; the hospital did not have all the required medications for their son and recommended he be transferred to (withheld) Hospital. He was very tired and they decided to put him on ventilation for the ambulance drive. States that when they arrived in (withheld), his son was placed in ICU where he was on the ventilator for 5 days, the recuperating for 2 more days.

He was given 0.5 mg Ativan and 15 mg IV Toradol. Workup notable for CXR (wnl), EKG (wnl), CRP (2.2), ESR (29), proBNP (62 wnl). Lipase (wnl), Lithium 0.8 (0.6-1.2 mmol/L). CMP 142/3.9/106/27.

Patient is a 15 year old M with hypofibrinogenemia, platelet aggregation disorder and history of COVID admitted to Inpatient Ward from 26 June - 01 July for work-up and management of new onset and severe headache, photophobia, and pain with extraocular movement. Extensive work-up complete but still unclear etiology, though near complete resolution of symptoms with IV steroids. Neuro: CSF positive for HHV-6, still unclear if this fully explains presentation. CT and brain MRI negative, though limited exam due to braces artifact. Headache complicated by clear post-LP postural headache, though this improved throughout hospitalization, with nausea moderately controlled on Benadryl. Neurology and Ophthalmology consulted, who both thought peri-neuritis was plausible, which is consistent given such rapid improvement with steroids. Pain moderately controlled with Tylenol. Oligoclonal bands and MBP CSF studies pending at time of discharge. Plan for 7-day steroid taper as an outpatient (outlined below in patient instructions), and Neurology follow-up in about 1 month. ID: Initially empirically covered with Ceftriaxone and Acyclovir, but once negative CSF, both were discontinued. He remained afebrile throughout remainder of hospitalization, so no further antibiotics started. Had remote history of immunodeficiency (confirmed here to be IgA deficiency), underwent more extensive immune work-up with lymphocyte subset 6 pending at time of discharge. Fen/GI: Nausea and poor PO intake secondary to headache and neurologic symptoms. Unremarkable KUB with no focal findings on exam. Tolerated good liquid PO intake prior to discharge, improving food intake with help of Benadryl and Reglan (Zofran did not help his nausea). Given risk of Reglan side effects, trial of Benadryl alone was given and relieved his nausea. Will discharge with Benadryl PRN for nausea, though expect this to improve. Heme: No blood transfusions required, no history of recent bleeding/trauma, no signs of active bleeding. Received TXA for three days following his LP performed on 6/28. Rheumatology: Patient has preexisting appointment with Rheumatology scheduled on 7/9 due to a history of intermittent joint pain/swelling with skin color changes since April 2020. Ordered requested Rheumatology labs by Doctor while patient is admitted. CRP and ESR resulted normal at 0.31 and 8 (respectively), C3 and C4 within normal limits, dsDNA and ANA negative. Repeat ESR on 6/30 also normal at 10. Pending labs include fecal procalcitonin. Follow up appointment with Rheumatology on 7/9. CV: Some concern for myocarditis at time of presentation given pleuritic chest pain, history of COVID-19 infection, and recent COVID-19 vaccination. EKG at that time revealed nonspecific T wave changes. However, troponin and BNP resulted negative and patient's chest pain has resolved at this time. Discussed with Cardiology who did not think further work-up was necessary. Chest pain completely resolved at time of discharge.
