She was afraid and considered going to the hospital but thought she was going to wait it out see what it is and it passed. She then once again got a lot of saliva in her mouth again.

She had a lot of pain and a lot of chills. She was never bedridden, but would lay down because she was exhausted. Her back hurt a tremendous amount. Another thing that happened is her eyes, when she would go to move her eyes left or right or up or down it seemed like her eye sockets just hurt to move her eyes; she did not have a headache; this whole indentation there with her eyes hurt to move them from one side to another. She also had a very sore, uncomfortable stomach; it was not an upset stomach; just seemed very sore, uncomfortable. At first that first part of 05Mar2021 she seemed a bit congested.

She is scheduled to get her second dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine on 24Mar2021 because she is leaving by plane on 29Mar2021. That only gives her like 4-5 days before she leaves and she knows that the other symptoms after the first dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine did not start until 3 days later. She is concerned about that, because she is flying to take care of her sister; she is worried about the second dose because she does not like what she experienced with the first dose because she heard that the second dose will be terrible; she is worried about leaving and experiencing those horrible things. She reported that there are no tests/investigations relative to this report to provide. The only thing recently done was having X-rays of her neck on 24Feb2021 because of her neck issues with the fractured neck she had in 2011. Outcome of the events was unknown.

Firstly I need to say that someone I told to call a second number well disconnect me twice but I have something call a report number that the person I think it has same job title of you. I am not certain but her name is (Name) and she gave me report number. She asked me all the questions, I answered all the her questions including my 28Jan2021 Pfizer injection which was my first injection and I have question referring to my taking Warfarin and wanted to if there was interaction because I went to doctor today to see my blood was instead 2.5 to 3, it was 4.9 which is extremely high and the only thing I have taken, I have done differently was to have my Pfizer injection on 28Jan2021. Consumer stated, "It is already in your system because as I said before I have report number. Should I give the report number. The person I spoke a long time ago that with I have been phone said that she information from my card when you they gave that card for you come like second time for the second dose or booster as I told this call." When probed for if the consumer call the Drug safety earlier: Consumer stated, "That thing I am telling I spoke to someone by the name of (Name). She started asking by same question you did. That is why I am trying to tell you that person already asked me everything and give me report number. She wanted to transfer me because she says it is wrong department. I started here same information again. I have been on phone for far too long for this to be evening. The report number is 'number'. Consumer stated, "Concern is that I have Lupus and I take Warfarin. My INR report does part of what to do when you have lupus. You have blood measure monthly or whatever times that necessary. It is very high. It should be a range just listen to number 2.5 to 3. My report they showed me that I am 4.9, that is big number. It is like 2 margin over. I am trying to find out if the injection had interaction with warfarin that is medication I take. Blood thinner I take because I have lupus with antiphospholipid symptoms. I am trying to find out if the injection had any interaction with warfarin the blood thinner. That is the information I am trying to to get. When I go to a surgeon tomorrow because I have wound on my foot from surgery that I had and it is not healing, it is just draining. I don't know if one has anything to do with other but I am very suspicious about it because my blood is too thin and my body me things don't heal the way they supposed to. The consumer has taken the Pfizer Covid Vaccine: Consumer stated, "That is the first thing I said. I told you and then I am telling about warfarin. I said I wanted to know if the Pfizer vaccine which I took on 28Jan2021 as I said that before if it had conflicting reactions with warfarin.

Consumer was provided with the number of Medical Information number and was requested to select option 3, timings as and 8 am to 8 pm Monday to Sundays as per (EST). Investigation Assessment: Yes. She had the first dose of the Pfizer covid19 vaccine on 28Jan2021. She is nervous. She lives with lupus and antiphospholipid syndrome, which means her blood is too thick. She is on a blood thinner, she takes warfarin. She is asking if the vaccine could interfere with warfarin. Today she had her INR checked and it was was 4.9. States a stable reading is between 2 and 3. The only different thing she has had in her body is the vaccine. Reports she is nervous and scared. She had surgery on her feet and she has a wound where a thicker scab came off, states it is draining but not drying out. She was thinking maybe this was due to her her INR being high. She will see the surgeon tomorrow. She put a bandaid on her foot where the open wound on her foot is. The next morning she checked her foot and the bandaid was wet. She put some peroxide on it. She read peroxide is not good for open wounds because it kills good bacteria so she used gauze and placed it over the open wound with tape across it. Last month her warfarin dose was 6 mg 5 days a week and 3mg two days a week. As of today she is to take 3mg three days a week and 6mg four days a week. Warfarin is 6mg tablet that is perforated, clarifies it can be broken in half. She does not think her new regimen that she was given today will bring her INR back in the range between 2 and 3. States her INR has never been that high. She will go back to see the nurse in two weeks to get her INR checked. She sees her patient medical record number listed on the card. She says pardon her grunts and moans because she grunts and moans when she moves since she is 76. She feels weird and her eyes are extra dry in 2021. She is nervous about the area where she had surgery on her feet, she does not want it to get infected. She thinks she had surgery on 04Dec2020 to have arthritis in her toes corrected. Outcome of events was unknown.

March 10, 2021 I received my second dose of the Pfizer vaccine and the following day I experienced the predicted side effects of fever, chills, headache, fatigue and lack of appetite, which were all mild and I took Tylenol for the fever. The following day I was fine. After approximately two weeks I noticed there were subtle and unusual changes regarding my appetite, energy level an itchy rash on my back and a runny nose. I didn?t pay much attention to any of these as they weren?t debilitating symptoms, but very unique for me. Then I realized I needed to pay more attention to these symptoms as they were getting more significant, except for the fact I didn?t have a fever. Also my ears felt they were blocked. I thought perhaps because of the feeling of blocked ears I may be getting a sinus infection although I haven?t had one in years. I called the doctor?s office on April 5th and I was told to go to the Urgent Care, which I did. I was examined and given a prescription for a nasal spray, antihistamine and an antibiotic in case symptoms became more severe. It was also suggested that I may want to have a Covid test. I?m not used to taking any medications except for Trazodone, and was reluctant to take what was prescribed because if it was indeed a sinus infection it wasn?t in line with any I?d had years ago. I used the nasal spray for a few days and also the antihistamine. The headache got worse, and would move from one area of my head to another and also down the side of my face and neck. Tylenol didn?t help and Ibuprofen only helped now and again. The headache had a mind of its own. Warm compresses did help. I was in contact through the portal for recommendations from the medical staff.

This was constantly happening but is now getting better but not completely over. She mentioned that she talked to several doctors and they think that Remicade, since it lowers the immune system and decreases white blood cell count and the vaccine increases the white blood count, it has interfered with the signals with her eyes. She was also hospitalized from 29May2021 to 2Jun2021 for cellulitis and was given some antibiotics and steroids which she thinks helped with her symptoms.

It only seemed after the Remicade that this started happening, and now she was due for another Remicade infusion on 24Jun2021. She had some other health issues earlier this month and was put on antibiotics. The antibiotics seemed to help the eye it is not completely gone but better.

She asked the doctor there and they brushed her off. The last day before she came home the nurse came in and wanted to know if she had her shot. She asked the nurse the same question about the vaccine and Remicade, and the nurse said now they ask people before they get the shot if they are on Remicade. The nurse didn't have anyone that said yes. It was seeming like there is some kind of problem with Remicade and the vaccine. That is why she was a little bit concerned about having it again.

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?"

She stated that her biggest thing is her blood pressure.

Medical history included diabetes mellitus (she is a diabetic on an insulin pump), breast cancer, kidney disease and patient had unknown allergy (she was allergic to something but cannot provide what it is specifically). The concomitant medications of patient were not reported. Patient stated that her face was swollen up, wondering if this is a symptom. She just got the last one, it swelled up with the first one, but she didn't call, this is the second one. Caller stated that her face swelled up the second or third day after the first shot. She stated that she got her both doses on 03Jun2021 (1st dose) and 24Jun2021 (2nd dose). Caller declared that her face has swollen up after her 1st dose and has persisted since the 2nd dose. It was swollen over her eyebrows, over eyes and lips. She also noticed it moved from one side to the other in a matter of hours. She knows she was allergic to something but cannot provide what it is specifically. Caller informed the vaccination site that she has serious case of diabetes, allergy, kidney problems and had cancer. Caller mentioned that she was questioned if she does have the cancer again. However, the vaccinator proceeded with her shot. Another thing she noticed was her memory was kind of worse. That started after, she noticed more after the shot, the first shot. She stated seems like it was improving, as soon as she found out what was wrong, as soon as she was alerted, she was not remembering too good. After the first dose of the vaccine on 03Jun2021, she experienced swelling in the face, forehead, eyebrows and she feels it moving. The doctor wanted to do biopsy of it. Caller stated that she was scheduled for biopsy today (29Jun2021) and wanted to know if that is too soon, with not even been a week since she had the COVID shot. Caller wanted to know if more than 1 vial can be used to give the vaccine as she thinks that more than 1 vial of the Pfizer covid vaccine was used to give her shot. She was asking if Pfizer use two vials with the vaccine because she saw them use two vials and wanted to know if something is mixed with that. Seriousness was reported as no. The outcome of event memory impairment was recovering and for rest of the events outcome was unknown. Information on Lot/Batch number has been requested.

My Mom had an an allergic reaction four hours after receiving her first dose of the Pfizer Covid 19 vaccine. Her face swelled up and became red....worse on the right side than the left...her eyes were swollen as well. It lasted this way for four days....it is a little better now, but her face is still a little swollen (seven days after shot). She had a headache on and off and felt tired (which we understand is not an allergic reaction, but rather an immune response). Her family physician suggested taking antihistamines before her second shot. Needless to say, we are apprehensive about what the outcome from the second shot will be like for her.

Double vision; the way she talked she kind of had slurred speech; mouth was dry; she had Bell's Palsy/ Droop in her lip/mouth; her eye was still watering; puffiness around her eye; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 78-year-old female patient received first dose of bnt162b2 (manufacture unknown, Lot Number: 9264), intramuscularly in left arm on 29Jan2021 14:55 at 0.3 ml, single for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included non-hodgkin's lymphoma from Jul2019 and ongoing (The first time she was diagnosed was Jul2019. She then went into remission and then got the cancer back, she doesn't know when. She knows they started treating it as the cancer had returned in Aug 2020), watering eyes from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing (Her eye was watering before the injection. She knows her eye was watering before she received the vaccine), chemotherapy from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing (she is a cancer patient on chemotherapy), fever blister from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing. There were no concomitant medications. The patient experienced she had bell's palsy and she does not know if she got this from the covid shot or not but she still has the droopy lip which apparently that can last a while. on 02Feb2021, droop in her lip/mouth on 02Feb2021, her eye was still watering on 02Feb2021, there was a little puffing around the eye/ puffiness around her eye on 02Feb2021, double vision on an unspecified date, the way she talked she kind of had slurred speech on an unspecified date. Caller was calling about the Pfizer COVID 19 vaccine. She said on Friday 29Jan2021 she had the first shot at about 12:30. Her eye started watering in the morning Thursday the day before and she maybe assumed she was getting a cold in her eye but it was really runny and she got the shot. She was a cancer patient on chemo and she went to the doctor because she was supposed to get her chemo. That Tuesday morning she had a droopy lip on the right side and her eye was still watering, there was a little puffing around the eye and the way she talked she kind of had slurred speech so she thought stroke but she was going to get her chemo in an hour or 2 so she when they checked her she told them what happened, she was seeing the PA that day so she left and came back 10 minutes later and said she had talked to the doctor, they were not going to give chemo today and told her she had Bell's Palsy and she does not know if she got this from the COVID shot or not but she still has the droopy lip which apparently that can last a while. This was her first shot so as a cancer patient on chemo should be getting the second shot 21Feb. She was concerned about taking that when she already has Bell's Palsy now, what else would it cause and then if she does not get it would she be 50 % protected. The doctor seemed to say she thought it was from the vaccine, but caller does not know because the eye watering began the day or 2 prior to getting the vaccine. Product details: She does not have the vaccine card right with her and she was using a walker to get up and down and so she was not able to provide NDC lot expiration right now. It would be available if needed at a later time. Indication: doctor said she should have it because she has no immune system. They don't know what to do they are just following what they told her and they were scared to death. The caller states she was a cancer patient on chemotherapy. She received her first Pfizer COVID-19 injection on Friday, 29Jan2021. Prior to the vaccine, her eye had been watering Thursday or Friday morning before she had shot, it was just her right eye. On Tuesday, 02Feb2021, she developed a droop in her mouth and puffiness around her eye and so forth. Caller clarified it was just on the right side and with her right eye. She also has double vision in her right eye. She got up in the morning on 02Feb2021, and her husband was in the other room and told her that she sounded funny. She explained to her husband her mouth was dry and she was kind of slurring her speech. Her husband came into the room she was in and said, "huh, your lip was drooping". Since it was in the morning and she had no other symptoms besides the talking funny and the puffiness around her eye, she didn't take it as a stroke. She figured she would just until she went to her chemotherapy appointment she had the same day, 02Feb2021. She went into her appointment and showed the person and gave her information on what happened. The person wanted an MRI of the brain to make sure she didn't have cancer there or cancer anywhere else up in that area and also that she didn't have a stroke. She confirms the MRI was fine, both were negative for any signs of this. She was told she developed bell's palsy. She has a drooping lip. The caller was concerned about her second shot. She wants to know should she getting the second vaccine, because the person at the (institution name) office (where she receives her chemotherapy) believes the bell's palsy came from the COVID-19 vaccine. She was supposed to have chemotherapy that day (02Feb2021), but they wouldn't give it to her then, but she did have it done yesterday. Caller explains she has no NDC, Lot number or expiration date for the chemotherapy she receives. She isn't given any stuff with any numbers and she gets numerous medications. Patient's Medical History (including any illness at time of vaccination): Her eye was watering before the injection. She knows her eye was watering before she received the vaccine because as she was sitting waiting to receive her injection, she remembers wiping her eye and thinking to herself, "I wish this eye would quit watering". Caller states she had a fever blister, but she was not quite sure about when this appeared. She doesn't know if she had developed the fever blister before or the next day after receiving the vaccine, she was not quite sure. The any events were not required a visit to Emergency Room. She went to the Oncology Office for her chemotherapy appointment. No Prior Vaccinations (within 4 weeks). Caller had the MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) on 02Feb2021 showed she didn't have a stroke and no cancer of the brain. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included magnetic resonance imaging: negative on 02Feb2021 Negative for stroke and/or cancer. The outcome of events was unknown. No follow-up attempts are possible. No further information is expected.

She wondered if she should call Fire Dept (but wasn?t making total sense). Her friend came, tried to help, but I think she decided to call 911 for help getting her up & wants EMTs to check her out. **She had fallen during Covid, went to ER & they gave fluids & she was ?good? for a week, but then dizzy & severe lethargy, same friend took her to ER & she was admitted (negative covid test at that point), but very large PE, thus heparin & then Eliquis (Dec 2020).

About 5 or 4 days ago my scalp towards the top of the head hurt while going to sleep on my back. I assume that I probably scratched my head while shampooing my hair. Then next day my right eye started to bother me. I thought I had bumped my eye while trying to clean the discharge I have in the mornings with q-tips. But finally it got worse until it hurt me. So I went to the ophtlamologist today who according to his diagnosis I had shingles. I just got an antiviral medication for the next seven days and drops to help clean my eyelids. This is so bothersome, sometimes while trying to read I see blurry.

Loss of voice; Asthma; her voice became extremely hoarse; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable nurse. A 78-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), dose 2 via an unspecified route of administration on 16Mar2021 09:15 (Batch/Lot Number: EN6207) as single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Family history included sore arm. Concomitant medications included fluticasone furoate, vilanterol trifenatate (BREO ELLIPTA) taken for an unspecified indication, start and stop date were not reported. The patient previously took BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), dose 1 (lot number: EN6198) on 23Feb2021 in the right arm for COVID-19 immunization. About 3-4 days after (as reported), her voice became extremely hoarse, in which she lost a voice for 3 weeks. She mentioned that she was diagnosed with Asthma on 23Mar2021 and was started with a Breo Ellipta inhaler. The Breo had a listed side effect of hoarseness of voice in which she started a week after receiving the vaccine, to which her hoarseness became worse. She mentioned that according to the paperwork she received from Pfizer, hoarseness of the voice was also listed as a side effect. She consulted with her Pulmonologist who determined that the inhaler was working pretty well and would like to continue her on it and wanted to see if the hoarseness is still there by May. As of calling, she already has some of her voice back, but the hoarseness was still continuing, which gets worse in the afternoon or evening. She would like to know if this has been reported and for how long it will last. She had the injection/vaccine and hoarseness started about a week before she started on the Breo Ellipta inhaler (NDC: 01730859-10 Lot: UL4F Expiration: 10/2022 Dose: 100mcg/25mcg). She stated they both can cause the same thing with hoarseness. She clarified that when she lost her voice, it was just above a whisper. It had gotten progressively worse since it started a week prior. It lasted almost 3 weeks. Now she has started to get her voice back, but still has the hoarseness and this was as good as her voice gets, it gets worse in the afternoon and by 2:00 P.M. it was back down to no voice. She went down to see the pulmonary specialist and prescribed her 2 different inhalers. The specialist said it was an unusual hoarseness, but he couldn't tell what one it was from. The patient clarified she experienced the hoarseness first from the Pfizer Covid Vaccine after the second vaccine, and then a week later she started on the Breo Ellipta, and the hoarseness got worse. The doctor wants to wait until 19May2021 and see if she still has the hoarseness and then he might switch, but it was working so well, he didn't want to switch her yet. The patient was prescribed Breo Ellipta and Albuterol but she hasn't used the Albuterol. The patient reported that she considers the event as medically significant because hoarseness can cause cancer and she doesn't want it to get worse. No other vaccines administered on the same date of the BNT162B2 and no prior vaccination. The event hoarseness started on 18Mar2021 and loss of voice on 23Mar2021. The events did not require a visit to the emergency room. The outcome of the event hoarseness was not recovered, Loss of voice recovered on 13Apr2021 and asthma was unknown. The events hoarseness and loss of voice was reported as serious-medically significant. Follow attempts are possible. Further information is expected.; 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 serious events Hoarse voice and Loss of voice cannot be excluded. The case will be reassessed if additional information becomes available.

The patient reported that she stayed at the facility that gave her the Covid 19 vaccine for 20 minutes and her husband was waiting for her. When she was driving away from the facility her tongue felt burned and then her mouth was burning and then her throat was burning on an unspecified date. She does have acid reflux but this wasn't like any acid reflux she's ever had. She got home and she drank some cool water but everything was still burning. By then it was almost supper time so she took 20 mg of Pepcid. Her mouth burned throughout her meal. She called her doctor again and he asked her if her mouth was swollen and she told him she didn't know. She took more Benadryl. One of her daughter's told her that the Covid 19 virus was so bad that she should get her second dose of the Covid 19 vaccine no matter how bad her reaction was. Her doctor told her not to get the second Covid 19 vaccine. She assumed it was a done deal. She wasn't going to get the second dose. She was supposed to get her second dose on 17Mar2021. She had gone to the doctor a couple times and each time he told her, do not get the second Covid 19 vaccine. He showed her the Pfizer Covid 19 vaccine print out with side effects. When her mouth started burning after she got the first Covid 19 vaccine her husband did ask her if she wanted to turn around and go back to the facility where she got the vaccine but she told him no. Now she's missed her second Covid 19 vaccine on 17Mar2021 because she thought that what her doctor told her was the final word. She was afraid to get the second Covid 19 vaccine and she wants to listen to her doctor because he knows what's best. During this Covid 19 virus time she was also diagnosed with Macular Degeneration. That's keeping her from driving and she's lost even more of her independence. She's heard if she gets the Covid 19 virus it can attack her eyes. Every time she hears the words fully vaccinated it makes her want to cry. She's worried that people won't want to be near her because she's not fully vaccinated. Her husband had both of his Covid 19 vaccines and he had no side effects. Her husband gets every vaccine on the market and never has any side effects. As far as she's concerned she feels like a pariah because no one will want to be around her because she's not fully vaccinated. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of all events. The outcome of the events was unknown. Information about lot/batch number has been requested. Follow-up (02Jun2021): No follow-up attempts are completed; information about lot/batch number cannot be obtained.

She got her vaccine, and within a day or two she had a feeling that her mouth was pulling sensation, and has had shingles in the paste. She started using lip balm, and it would loosen up at the beginning. Then, it started getting worse after a couple of days, and started circling her mouth. On 3/5/21 she had a crust around her mouth and went to a doctor and said that she had psoriasis or eczema and told her that she could not treat it. She has a band-aide on her face from the biopsy and has a picture for that. She went to her for 4/5 visits and gave her a hydrocortisone cream and a cold tar treatment, and it stopped for about a week. The cold tar burned to put it on her face, but was doing it, then that stopped. She had an APT on 4/30/21 that she cancelled. Then within the last 7 days it has recurred again. She then went on 6/3/21 to Dr., which was a referral from her PCP, Dermatologist. She demanded her records and he has marked off COVID screen and shingles in a circle and to FU in one month. He has sent her to have patch testing, and to go see a Dr. She informed the doctor of what she has been using for the rash, and he sent her to the other doctor. She has a crack on her nose, and the cream made that area sore. She has had shingles twice in the past. The only place that she has the rash is on her neck upward, her face and seems to be moving to her forehead. The other day it was on the side, and now has moved to the entire forehead. She wears wigs due to the alopecia and seems to be moving up under the wig. She has scaly skin, and crusty skin. He did not diagnose her with shingles, but had it written on his form. She asked if she had shingles and he told her that the Pfizer one had some symptoms of shingles. She has tried eliminating foods, using other problems, and has been taking Benadryl and it's not helping the reaction. He told her to go home and wash her face and not to be put anything on it and that it might go away on it's own, but she has had it for 3 months now. She was very slight near the eyes. Her right eye has had two detached retina and a cataract repair as well, and is worried that if it goes into her eye that she will be blind. The rash is on both sides of her face not one sided. She has put cocoa butter cream on her lips and it seems to be helping her, but was told not to use it. Told her to wash her face frequently and has an APT in a month to have the patch biopsy.

The patient previously took (years ago) hepatitis vaccine, shingles vaccine, pneumonia vaccine, no reactions to those; she was very cautious did not leave the office too soon after vaccines.

She went to bed last night and during the night she woke up with excruciating pain in all 10 fingers, just to the area that connects to the hand, nothing in her palm or hand. She couldn't move her fingers for maybe a minute or two. Eventually she was able to move her fingers a little, then more and more and the event stopped, she kind of went back to normal and fell asleep. A couple of hours later she had the same event reoccur, just down to the hand, all 10 fingers, couldn't move them for a few minutes and then after that she could, they seemed to be ok, and she fell asleep again.

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.

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 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.

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.

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.

Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of blood pressure/ up to 210/110 mmHg and feeling nauseous.

Amyloidosis; felt a sweep over her stomach up her body and up to her head; Eyes swollen; hands hurt; sharp pings up and down legs; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). 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.

gray spot on forehead; face felt hot and flushed; Face red; was tired and wiped out; Eyes were red bloodshot; face was burning and burned bright red/her face feeling sunburned/ face got really like the worst sunburn; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). An 80-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE; Batch/lot: EL8982) intramuscular in right arm on 22Jan2021 at 13:00 at single dose for COVID-19 immunization.

Patient previously took shingles vaccine as immunization and she had had a small reaction, she had a patch of shingles break out around her arm at the site of injection site. Concomitant medication included ongoing omeprazole for Gastroparesis, ongoing erythromycin, ongoing aluminum hydroxide/magnesium carbonate (GAVISCON) for acid reflux (esophageal), ongoing calcium for Osteoporosis, ongoing losartan for Blood pressure, ongoing acetaminophen for arthritis, ongoing spironolactone as diuretic, ongoing tramadol for Osteoarthritis, vitamin C [ascorbic acid] as general supplementation, ongoing alprazolam for Anxiety, ongoing doxazosin for high blood pressure, ongoing fenofibrate for High cholesterol, ongoing vitamin b complex (B-COMPLEX) as general supplementation, ongoing bisoprolol for high blood pressure, ongoing magnesium good for heart recommended by cardiologist, ongoing biotin for hair and nails, ongoing zinc as immunity booster, ongoing montelukast sodium for allergies and pretty bad sinus problems/sinus trouble in the winter, ongoing levocetirizine dihydrochloride (XYZAL) for allergies, ongoing cyclobenzaprine for leg cramps at night as muscle relaxer, ongoing macrogol 3350 (MIRALAX) as laxative and ongoing "CVS brand multivitamin at one tablet once a day oral as general supplementation" (as reported).The patient experienced face felt hot and flushed and face red on 24Jan2021; gray spot on forehead on 25Jan2021; was tired and wiped out, eyes were red bloodshot, face was burning and burned bright red face feeling sunburned in Jan2021.Events were described as follows: patient received the first dose of the vaccine on 22Jan2021 and she had a few mild symptoms. She did not feel really good for a day or two but it was nothing that alarmed her, she was tired and wiped out. She always took a shower since she had arthritis and it get gets her joints going. On 24Jan2021 after she got out of the shower, her face felt hot and it was red. She didn't think too much about it and it went away pretty soon. She did not connect it with the vaccine. On 25Jan2021 she took a little longer shower and the same thing happened, but it was 10 or 12 times worse in regards to her face feeling hot and was red. She was drying off and getting dressed and reported her face felt funny and it was really hot. When she looked at it was bright red like she had the worst sunburn, it felt like a sunburn. Her face was red and eyes were red bloodshot and it lasted about half an hour; her face got real flushed like a real bright sunburn and her face was burning and burned bright red. She started putting on cold wet wash cloths to help cool her face down and when it the wash cloths got warm, she would wet it again to cool her face down some more. She was alarmed but about 30 minutes later it started lightening up a bit and pretty soon it was back to normal. Her face felt different in the afternoon, it was a little red. She worked out in yard and last summer she got an insect bite on her forehead that turned gray, it was the size of silver dollar. After the hot flush thing this morning, that gray spot came back. Her doctor said it might take a while for it to go away. Her face felt warm like it has been sunburned. Her throat was dry since she has been waiting on the phone for an hour. Her face feeling sunburned/hot was about 95% gone, barely there. Her face getting red started on 24Jan2021 morning and it was almost gone. Treatment included ponds face cream and it was very soothing. Patient just wanted to know what to do about this flushing of her face and if it was dangerous what she can do. She would like to know if she should be worried about this, it only happened when she took a shower. She was asking if there was anything she can do before she can get the second injection, so it does not happen again or what to do if it does happen again. Final outcome of tired and wiped out, eyes were red bloodshot and face was burning and burned bright red/her face feeling sunburned/ face got really like the worst sunburn was unknown; outcome of the other events was not recovered.

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.

Asthma attack began about 20 minutes after injection, with throat tightening, slight mouth swelling sensation and immediate wheezing which grew progressively worse. I had my inhalers (Levalbuterol and Flovent) with me, used Levalbuterol at the direction of medical people who surrounded me after I reported wheezing. They gave me a Benadryl, then brought a wheel chair and sent me directly to the ER. I was there about 3 hours during which I had a heart monitor, a "breathing treatment" by a respiratory therapist, and DUONEB, famotidine (PEPCID), and (DELTASONE). I was given a 3 day Rx for 20 mg. of prednisone, and released. My lungs felt "twitchy" the next day and my voice was muted, but was well otherwise. The only "normal" side effect I had was some soreness at the injection site for a couple of days, with some light sensitivity there for a few weeks.

An 80-year-old female patient received the first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Batch/Lot Number: EN6202), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Right on 01Mar2021 13:30 (at 80 years old) as single dose for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included irritable bowel syndrome, allergic to gluten, lecithin, and other barky parts of plants, high pressure, she did not hear very well, left breast surgery, skin cancer. She had a small skin cancer taken off each of her legs, one removed in Jan2020 and one removed in Feb2020. They are all healed up and they are fine, it was not the bad kind.

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.

It was negative, they did it 2 times and it was negative. When they took patient to one of the room in fact patient was frightened because they didn't told patient it was negative.

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.

Burning of mouth, lips, difficulty breathing. Lips swelled, cracked and peeled. Inside of mouth no longer burning , Swelling in lips has gone down, they have been peeling for days. Lips are red, still sore, but I'm hoping they are done peeling. I really don't feel I can handle another shot of this vaccine. I think I may have to cancel the second shot. I don't know what is it it, everyone keeps telling me it has no penicillin or sulfa drugs in it, but the symptoms are the same. The only difference is my hands haven't cracked and peeled along with my lips and mouth. I've had these problems since last tuesday night and am taking Benadryl trying to get some relief from it still. Please let me know if you have any solutions to prevent this.

She said she called her doctor's office this morning, and her doctor said for her to keep treating her symptoms as she had been doing. She said her doctor told her to call an ambulance or go to the emergency room if her symptoms happen to get worse. She said she read online that skin anaphylaxis (hives, itching, and swelling of the eyes, face, lips and throat) can occur with the COVID-19 Vaccine. She clarified she read the information about the COVID-19 Vaccine at (Website name). She said she read skin anaphylaxis was extremely rare and less than 1% of the population has the allergy, and those individuals should not get the COVID-19 Vaccine. She said she was upset because what she read probably means she can't get the second COVID-19 Vaccine shot. She said she read the skin anaphylaxis appears within 4 hours after getting vaccinated with the COVID-19 Vaccine. She said her symptoms occurred in almost the same amount of time as to what she read about a skin anaphylaxis reaction to the COVID-19 Vaccine. She said she has a regular check-up on Wednesday (24Feb2021) with her doctor, and will speak further to her doctor about getting the second COVID-19 Vaccine.

The patient was released home from the emergency room after probably about 5-6 hours. The reporter just thought the double vision seems to be a little suspect being that she had had the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccines and they have nothing else to attribute the event to. The vaccine was not administered at military facility. Outcome was not recovered at the time of reporting. Case was reported as non-serious.

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.

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.

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.

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.

COVID Vaccine I got my #2 Pfizer last Tuesday Apr 6....no problem at all with #1. The vaccination was in my LEFT arm, and the 1st day or so I didn't really have anything but tiredness. But the last few days have been very painful. I developed swelling on the RIGHT side of my face starting at the temple. That progressed down to the ear area the next few days and was quite painful. Since Saturday my tongue, lips, gums became swollen resulting in barely being able to swallow. Also rash developed and is getting worse. Additionally I ache all over and feel like a very bad case of the flu. I tried Tylenol Extra Strength in the beginning, but that seemed to only ease the pain for about an hour. Now I'm using Advil, which helps for several hours. Is there anything I can do to get relief. This is the 8th day....and it seems to be getting worse instead of better.

Tingling lips; nose and cheeks tingling; Chest tightness; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). An 82-year-old female patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH mRNA COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection, Batch/Lot Number: EN6206), dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in arm right on 28Feb2021 (at the age of 82-year-old) administered at approximately 13:30-13:45 (at the age of 82-year-old) as dose 1, single for COVID-19 immunisation. She did not have prior vaccinations in 4 weeks. Medical history included multiple allergies. she had allergies to Penicillin and Sulfa, since in her 40s. Concomitant medications included (procaine hydrochloride) NOVOCAIN taken for an unspecified indication from 24Feb2021 to an unspecified stop date. She had dental work on Wednesday, 24Feb2021, that included a shot of Novocain. She said she wondered if the Novocain shot had anything to do with the COVID-19 Vaccine causing the tingling in her lips, nose and cheeks, since everything she experienced on 28Feb2021 happened in her face area. She did not have the Novocain dose, NDC, Lot, and Expiration Date. The patient previously took codeine experienced drug allergies. She said her second COVID-19 Vaccine was a couple days before the recommended 21 days between COVID-19 Vaccine doses. The patient experienced tingling lips, nose and cheeks tingling, chest tightness on 28Feb2021 at 22:00. She clarified the tingling in her cheeks was higher up around her cheek bones. She said her cheek tingling was not as strong as the tingling in her lips and nose. She had allergies, and was scared, so she went to the emergency room. She clarified her lips, nose, and cheeks tingling started approximately 5 hours after she received her first COVID-19 Vaccine shot. She said she went to the emergency room about 5 hours after the tingling started, at 22:00 (28Feb2021). Treatment was reported as she was given 1 intramuscular shot of Benadryl while she was in the emergency room. She said she did not know the Benadryl dose or the Benadryl NDC, Lot, and Expiration Date. She clarified the intramuscular Benadryl shot did not effect her lip, nose and cheek tingling at all. She said she was wondering if she should get the second COVID-19 Vaccine shot. She was discharged home from the emergency room after about 2 hours. She said she was given a prescription for oral Benadryl 25mg by mouth, four times a day, as needed, for itching and allergies (30 tablets). She said she did not fill the Benadryl 25mg tablet prescription because she did not think the Benadryl prescription was necessary. she also had felt a little tightening in the center of her upper chest area, towards her throat. She said the chest tightening was very slight, so much so, that she thought the chest tightening maybe her imagination. She said the slight chest tightening went away sooner than her lip, nose, and cheek tingling. The tingling in her lips, nose, and cheeks was much less by the next morning (01Mar2021) and was completely gone by noon (01Mar2021). She said she called her dentist on 01Mar2021 to ask if he thought the Novocain could have contributed to her lips, nose, and cheeks tingling. She said her dentist told her he didn't think the Novocain had anything to do with the tingling she experienced after getting the COVID-19 Vaccine. She said she had Novocain in the past, and Novocain had never caused her to have a reaction. The second COVID-19 Vaccine dose was scheduled for 19Mar2021. The outcome of the event was recovered on 01Mar2021 No follow-up attempts are possible. No further information is expected.

She has never reported the side effects that she had, and her daughter told her should have done that. She found her papers and now she is 82 and she got her first shot on 05Mar2021. Patient reported as she felt fine then she got up to leave and her nose started running and it was just like water was pouring out and she made it up to the front and had Kleenexes in her pocket, then started coughing violently, her nose was running violently and trying to come out of her mouth, and she sat down on the chair there and she thought it will pass. she walked out to look for the person that took her out there and she saw exactly where they parked, and her eyes were so foggy she could hardly even see the car. She felt okay then the next day, she got up and her mouth was swollen, just her face and her lips were real swollen. However, her whole face was swollen. she didn't read the side effects to it and thought oh well, it's just some-thing. The next day her blood pressure was going off the wall, her heart rate was horrible, she called the doctor, they wanted her to go to the hospital. The doctor told her to take Benadryl, and Benadryl bothers her, and she said that made her worse. It made her worse. She further clarified made her worse as, it made her heart worse, dizzy and lethargic and she was already tired anyway. she would have been better off not taking it. Her heart rate, which is always normal or very good, and it was like it was going ninety miles an hour. she would get it to slow down then it would feel like it was going 90 miles an hour for a few days then she was really weak and her mind, which at her age she has a very good mind, they tested that, she was having trouble thinking. she guesses she would call it foggy. she wanted to sit down and pay bills, but she couldn't even concentrate. Her question is she had the first shot but now she's afraid to get the second shot because of what it did the first time around. she's afraid it will do double; they say it's a worse reaction. The card that she had, she said that her nose was running so bad, she shoved the card in her purse and looked in her purse later and she can't even find that card. She will say she can't get the flu shot because in the past, she had a very bad reaction from the flu shot, she was questioning whether to get this vaccine or not. It wasn't a live vaccine. she is scared to death of the virus and her kids wanted her to get it now, hurry, hurry, and she thought she would try it. Since she has reactions to suspect product, she's concerned about getting the second one. That was 10 years or more that she had the bad reaction. She is a person that her body is very sensitive. Her doctor has trouble getting medicines she can take. She has a bad back, she has tired every painkiller there is and she can't take any of them, they are worse than the pain. She has trouble seeing too. She keeps every-thing up, they don't give as many papers and it changes every week. She doesn't know how the people in the medical profession can take it, she imagines they change things on them overnight. She has macular. She couldn't understand with that shot why she could see whenever she went in and after she got the shot then everything was fogged when she came outside, but she knows it still wasn't as bad as getting the virus. She's still weak, but she's gotten better. They said she could leave, her nose started running and she started coughing. The girl said is she okay and thought she was, and she made it out then started coughing violently and that water was almost drowning her. She sat down in the chair, and it finally calmed down and got in the car, kept wiping that water with paper towels in her car and coughing and by the time she got home it was slowed down. She is more tired than usual, and her eyes haven't cleared up as good as they should. She doesn't know what that happened, it just came out of there and thought well god what has happened to her eyes. She has an appointment with the Optometrist at the end of April. Another thing she forgot, they are going to think she's looney, she started urinating that evening and she thought, this is not good, something was going on with her kidneys, because it was cloudy-like and had a chemical smell and then the next morning, she still smelled the same thing and her bowels were the same way, just smelled this chemical. That evening her urine was like that and the next morning she noticed it was like that into the next day, whatever was in there had to come out and then her urine and things cleared up. Started on 05Mar2021, that evening, when she urinated before she went to bed it was cloudy and had this chemical smell, maybe it was something she ate or something. The next morning, she urinated a lot and it was cloudy and the bowel movement, it was white-looking and smelled like the chemical and cleared up.

She lives alone and received 700 units a day of steroids for 10-days last December. Family history included lung cancer runs in her family (sister and brother died of lung cancer, other sister got it too).

Concomitant medications were not reported. The patient stated she refused her immune therapy, as she wanted the vaccine. It was put down as she did not want it.

It said take all 6 that evening, but she took 2 then read and it said not to take with any vaccine. She stated that the nurse knew how she stressed she wanted the vaccine, and so she had the COVID vaccine. She just had the two steroids, and she said she wanted to wait until Mar2021 until she considered getting immune therapy, but the nurse booked her for 26Feb2021, and she had her second vaccine from Pfizer scheduled on 19Feb2021 one week apart. She asked if that is too soon, and does she need to put off immune therapy again. She read it is 2-3 weeks between, she wanted to have this verified.

The doctor's office, the nurse, gave them, after she told them she would have the vaccine. She stated she was furious, but she was getting this all the way down the line. She put the steroids away, she said she was not taking them, she talked to someone in the medical field and told her how she felt, and she agreed. Patient asked if it will be ok to have the immune therapy at that time and soon after getting the vaccine if it would be effective. She mentioned that at her age she is more concerned that she gets that vaccine and she wants to delay having the immune therapy until March given the horrible reaction she had before. She tried and tried to have this conversation with her doctors, but she does not have all that technology and they are only offering remote appointments. Patient stated that she had no problems from the first dose of the vaccine stating she did not even feel the needle. She has been exactly an hour on the phone.

She was asking for what to do and asking if there needed to be an adjustment for her dose because she was a very small person. She didn't want to have the 2nd shot if she went through that again. It was the worst experience of her life. She was not sure what to do now about her second shot. She had the first shot 02Mar2021 and everything was fine, 03Mar2021 she was okay but on 04Mar2021 she had, by night time, she had a lot of scary things that had never happened to her before.

She said the day after that happened, she was shaky but today (08Mar2021) she was fine.

This was so bad that she really was not going to take the second dose unless they can tell her if she should or that they should give her less or something like that. The outcome of events was recovered in Mar2021.

The Pharmacist had advised her to sit and wait 30 min. after the shot, due to her anaphylaxis history from multiple things. The Pharmacist monitored her and she continued to report itching on the forearm where she got the shot (not around the site) and slight shortness of breath. The patient never appeared to be in distress. As the symptoms continued, the Pharmacist decided, though an Epipen was ready to use, to call 911. Paramedics arrived within 5 to 7 min., questioned her, took her BP, Oxygen level and listened to her breathing (all were good). She said she was feeling better and said "no" when they asked her if she wanted to go to the hospital. The paramedics stayed with her about 10 minutes longer and she left with her family. She did not receive any Epipen or Benadryl (is allergic to it) but wanted to take a box of Claritin 10 mg with her (said it always helps). The paramedic told her Claritin will not help anaphylaxis (for future). The patient was advised to contact her physician because she probably would be at high risk for a second Covid vaccine.

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.

This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). An 86-year-old female patient received first dose of BNT162B2 (lot number: EW0191) on 29May2021 (at age of 86-year-old) on left arm at single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included ongoing Asthma, ongoing degenerative osteoarthritis, ongoing Stent, COVID-19 from 15Jan2021, diarrhea. Concomitant medications included paracetamol (TYLENOL) 500 mg tablet for pain. The patient previously took Plavix from unspecified date and ongoing. Caller states she is calling about the immunization, says she got it last Saturday in the afternoon (39May2021). She felt alright on Saturday, but from Sunday (30May2021) on, she began to have problems. Caller states she has advanced, degenerative osteoarthritis, and says it has been storming in Indiana this week. Caller states she has been in terrible pain, says she usually doesn't complain, and has been living with pain for years. Caller says she has to be pretty bad to complain. Sunday was really miserable with the arthritis. Caller says she is telling Pfizer not because she expects Pfizer to do anything with it, but says maybe she can help someone else who calls in because obviously she survived and the pain has gotten better through the week. Caller says Monday was another bad day, and she finally just had to give up and leave everything where it was and just go in the bed because she was hurting so bad. She clarifies she had to give up, says she tried to stay up but had to go back to bed because of the pain. Caller states her symptoms were an elevated temperature, which was a low grade one and still has it today, and she had GI symptoms. Caller states she and her grandson were running parallel, says they were both exposed at the same time, and both came down at the same day, and their symptoms were the same except her grandson does not have arthritis. Caller states they had a low grade temp, GI problems where they were not exactly nauseated, but it was kind of like a hunt. Some things went in their stomach and her stomach felt a little better with food in it, and then the problem was the diarrhea. Her and her grandson both had diarrhea and both slept quite a lot. Caller states she slept the clock around a couple of days. Caller stated both her and her grandson were hazy, mentally. The caller states she was surprised because her grandson is a very sharp young man, and he was sort of numb. When attempting to verify the details above and if her grandson also received the vaccine at the same time she did, the caller clarifies she is confusing things. She was talking about when they both had the COVID virus about the 15Jan. Caller says they were both exposed and came down with it the same day, says they ran parallel for 3-4 weeks. Caller confirms she is the only calling about herself today having received the vaccine. Caller states she is about 140 lbs, says she hasn't been very active lately. Caller states she received her vaccine at noon, says she was supposed to be there at 11, got lost getting there, waited in line, and then was ready at noon. Caller states they made her wait awhile longer because of her reactions to medications, says she waited a half of an hour. Caller states because felt it was wise for her to take the COVID-19 vaccine in lieu of her medical history with asthma, a stent, things like that. Caller says the doctors said it was wise for her to take it even though she had had the virus. She trusts , and has been with the doctor for 30 years, says she started with him when he first started his practice, says she trusts him, he's excellent, so when he said she should take it, she said ok. Caller states she didn't want to. Causality: Caller states she is inclined to think pain is related to the vaccine, but she is not going to say positively it was related, but it certainly is a coincidence. Caller states what she felt was that whatever was in the vaccine sort of irritated the irritation in her back and hips and leg and everything. Caller says they had some stormy weather this week and that always makes arthritis worse, but something caused the low grade fever. Caller states she is kind of assuming it's the COVID-19 vaccine. To be honest, she is kind of scared of the second dose so that's why she changed her appointment until the day after Father's day. Father's day will be the first time to see her entire family since the virus. Caller says her second dose was scheduled for the day before Father's day, but after the week she has had, she's going to get the immunization afterwards so she gets to see everybody. Caller then states she does feel the low-grade fever, and pain she was feeling, and the GI upset, were related to the vaccine. The GI upset was kind of a milder version of what she had when she had the virus. Caller states both she and her grandson had the GI upset when they had the virus. Caller says he wouldn't eat for awhile, but she got him to eat what she was eating because she figured out what her stomach would tolerate. Her and her grandson both had diarrhea and that was the bothersome part of it. After the vaccine, the caller did a lot of sleeping, says sleeping didn't last as long with the vaccine as it did with the virus. Caller says it was just a feeling of tiredness and she felt kind of blah. She really felt kind of stupid, it was hard to think- she doesn't know whether it was because she slept so much or what. Caller states she does not take strong pain medications for her arthritis because she has a stent and is on Plavix 24/7. She was told two years ago there is an incidence of internal bleeding for people who take arthritis medication and those who have a stent and are on a blood thinner 24/7. Caller states she was given the option of either taking a chance or not to take the pain medication. Caller says she didn't take the chance and opted not to take the pain medication. Caller says she only takes Tylenol extra strength, she does not use anything else. Caller says it can't be a pain medication that made her sleepy and stuff. Terrible pain: Caller states that one day, she just gave up and went to bed because she hurt so bad. She is not sure she would say the pain is disabling. The pain began on Sunday. She was a mess when she woke up. She clarifies she might have been up through the night to go to the bathroom and was miserable. Sunday was miserable, and Monday was a miserable day. Elevated temperature: Caller states fever began in the night, says she can't remember whether it was Sunday night or during the day on Sunday, says she's not exactly sure when. When probed for the seriousness, she said the significance might be due to the immunization. She confirms the fever is getting better, she felt better yesterday. Caller says today her eyes are burning. She took her temperature earlier and it was up, and her temperature is still up. Caller states because she takes Tylenol morning and evening, before she goes to bed, says it helps the pain somewhat. Caller says the first part of the week, Monday and Tuesday, the Tylenol might have taken the edge off. Extra Strength Tylenol: 500 tablets per bottle, 500 mg per tablet. Caller states the NDC:3014256190. Caller says she doesn't see a lot number, but there is a number underneath the expiration date: 9EE2582B.Exp: Feb 2021. Caller states the pain today is about the same that it always is, says she's pretty much in pain all the time, says it's something she has to live with. Caller states about the only time she is pain free is when she's in bed and has relaxed and taken a dose of Tylenol and it has taken effect. Caller states after she gets up in the morning and starts moving around, she starts having pain. Sometimes she has pain early in the morning, depends on what she does, like run the sweeper or when she's getting groceries. Caller states getting her groceries are one of the worst things, and she will have more pain the next morning. GI upset symptoms: Caller says she's pretty sure it started Sunday or just right away after that. Caller says it's a strange feeling, it's kind of a queasy, hungry feeling, it's a weird feeling. Caller says she puts a little food down there and it helps. Caller says she's been eating a lot of crackers, wheat thins, and ginger snaps. Caller says she has eaten and is pretty comfortable, says she would say it's getting better. Caller states she thinks in general, she is getting better- it's not perfect, but she is getting better. Caller states the reason she called is, for instance, her daughter in law, the mother of her grandson, was tending to think his symptoms from the virus were psychological and so forth. Her daughter in law is sort of that way, and she thinks everybody's else pain is psychological but hers. Caller states she came to her grandson's defense and fixed him up three care packages over a month with food that her stomach would tolerate- like crackers, ginger snaps, powdered chicken noodle soup, not canned, and oddly enough canned green beans, just plain old green beans, nothing on them- she didn't even have to warm them. Caller says her stomach tolerated them. Also, baked beans helped, she needed protein in there, says she tolerated baked beans and so did her grandson. Caller can't say everything she put in the care package, but tea was one thing, and another thing was cocoa. Caller says she got a generic mix. She mentions she tried some others, but they were not that good which was also because her taste doesn't enjoy food. Caller states this cocoa was good and was the generic brand. She gave her grandson a couple of cans of that because she drank that every evening when she took her medicine and ate crackers with her medicine before bed, and it was kind of soothing to her stomach. She knows it sounds weird, but it worked. Her GI upset she would consider medically significant because there was definitely a tie up. She explains it wasn't disabling and she doesn't consider it serious. She explains it was annoying, especially when she had the diarrhea. Unable to determine if caller was referring to vaccine symptoms or virus symptoms. Tiredness: She states she would consider the tiredness medically significant because she would sit down and she would get sleepy and then she did all this sleeping. Caller states it wasn't serious. She states the whole thing about this virus is kind of annoying because it was just bad enough it kept her from functioning normally and kept her feeling kind of lousy. Caller states she is feeling better, says it's improving. Hard to think: Caller states she would also consider this medically significant. She wouldn't have driven, says she wasn't sharp enough to drive or do anything important. Caller states today she is a little tired, but her temperature is up- it all goes in together. Attempted to clarify symptoms of the vaccine with caller. Caller states one thing she wants to tell Pfizer about her grandson is about the mental fog. The caller and her son were very afraid her grandson had that because her grandson was just a blob sitting there. He has been depressed because his parents are in a custody battle, so she doesn't know what part that played in it. Caller says she was concerned about him. He is 15 and he is very intelligent, but his grades went to Ds and Fs. Caller says her son got ahold of the high school counselor and the mother wouldn't do anything about it. The high school counselor got in on it, her son got on it, then they got someone got on it. Caller says they got her grandson through the work he was behind on, says he was behind for the whole thing. His mother didn't encourage him to do any school work. Maybe it wouldn't have done any good, maybe he was too far gone to do any work. Caller says they were concerned about the mental fog. She says her grandson is coming out of that and becoming his old self again. Caller says he is very intelligent and inquisitive, and he was just a blob for a long time. Medications: Caller stated she has been taking Plavix since 2008. She clarifies she started taking the Plavix because of her stent. She was on brand Plavix for a while and at one point she was switched to generic and she is on the generic 24/7. Tried to confirm with caller the generic name, but the call disconnected. Outbound call,was placed on 04Jun2021 at 3:24pm and was unsuccessful. Placed second outbound call, on 04Jun2021 at 3:25pm and was unsuccessful. The outcome of the events was unknown. The causality was reported as related. The seriousness was reported as medically significant.

Her stomach went into her chest. She was in rehab. She had to have the surgery done twice. She went from one hospital and then she went to another and it was taken care of there. When she went to rehab after her surgery, all she did was vomit day in and day out. Her current vomiting reminds her of this experience. They finally did take care of it. She came out of the hospital and was vomiting. She clarifies she had problems with vomiting for the last 6 months before this current experience. She doesn't know what she's eating. They say it's acid and she has Gerd. She does try to get her exercises in. When she was in the hospital, they found she had cancer, which they are just watching for now. When querying what kind of cancer she has, the caller explains she didn't have them do a biopsy. She didn't want to go that far into it. She didn't want any extensive treatment. At first, they were keeping check of the cancer every 3 months. Now, she is going ever year. She last went in November. The patient experienced macular degeneration on an unspecified date, vomiting on 23Feb2021 at 17:30, temperature 99.2 on 25Feb2021 at 10:00, very tired on 23Feb2021, arm was sore couldn't lay on it on 23Feb2021. Patient had the first Covid vaccine Tuesday morning, clarified to 23Feb2021 at 10:30AM and around 5:30PM that night she started vomiting. She vomited all night long and all day Wednesday and Wednesday night, and this morning. So far, it had stopped. She was trying to hold water down, but she couldn't keep water down, the water would come up. She clarifies further she tried to take a sip but it kept coming up. She called her doctor who was a practitioner and she told her to drink ginger ale and maybe crackers. She told the doctor that her daughter sent her electrolytes and she was told that was fine to take. She tried toast this morning and she couldn't hold it down. She's been eating very slow, taking little bites at time and she had been holding it down. She did have temperature of 99.2 on 25Feb2021, but half hour or so before it was down to 96 now. She couldn't take medicine that she normally takes because she'll throw it up anyway. She tried to take a few of her pills but it didn't stay down, she threw them up. Around 9am, she took her thyroid and that stayed down. So far, that's doing good. She takes Advair for asthma and she took that, that's okay. She took her singulair pill. So far, the three of these medications have stayed down, and she took 2 Tylenol. Patient took Tylenol twice. She knows it was Extra strength, took 2 pills Tuesday night but it didn't stay down. She Took 4 Tylenol today, 2 pills this morning and 2 right before her CNA left at around 3pm. Caller mentions she can't see the dosage on her Tylenol bottle. She doesn't see the dose. She mentions she will get her magnifying glass to check it out. She's afraid because she had surgery a couple years before and she vomited after surgery for three nights/days, or whatever. Today (25Feb2021), when she spoke to her doctor she was advised to call Pfizer to let them know how the vaccine is affecting her. Right now, she feels pretty good, but she was very, very tired. She's going to lay down when she gets off the phone. She had a CNA with her today and she also spoke to the nurse practitioner. The last time she vomited was around 10am. When the CNA came in, she told the caller to call the doctor but she told the CNA she'd be fine. However, the CNA urged the caller to call her doctor and let them know what was going on. Her second dose was scheduled for 16Mar2021. Her doctor told her don't drink the water, drink the ginger ale and don't drink it too fast, and try crackers and toast. The patient took her temperature last night (24Feb2021) but couldn't read it that great, she thought it was 98. When the CNA came this morning (25Feb2021), she took it around 10:00AM and it was 99.2. She told the CNA to take another temperature because she didn't think she had a fever. When the CNA left, she had to leave at 3:00PM, her temperature was normal, it was 96. She thinks maybe her temperature went to 99.2 because she was drinking her tea. However, she wasn't drinking it right away, because she threw up on it. She stopped drinking an hour before her temperature was taken. She clarifies wasn't drinking the tea when the CNA came. She also mentions she broke up her the toast into little tiny pieces and felt like she was eating like a bird, but it didn't stay down so she stopped. The CNA came around 9am, maybe 8am, and clarifies it was maybe around 1030AM when she took the temperature. When the CNA left her temperature was at 96. The patient was very tired the same day she received the vaccine. She remembers went to bed with clothes on. Last night, she wanted to go to bed again with her clothes on but she couldn't stand it and she changed into her pajamas. Then, she went to the bathroom and vomited, she has a bucket by the side of her bed. It wasn't the dry heaves, stuff was coming up. She was still very tired currently. She makes the comment "I forget things and then I remember afterwards". She had to get under the light to see the Covid card, it's small, it is handwritten. Caller mentions she sees the month on it. Caller reports her arm bothered her for quite a while. Last night, she went to sleep on her left side and her arm was feeling better which gave her some hope. Her arm started hurting her the day she got the vaccine, but her arm wasn't red or anything. Her arm was feeling better this morning. She thinks if she can sleep on it and didn't hurt, it's getting better. The last pills she took were Gabapentin she has been on for about 2 weeks. She explains her feet burn during the night and the doctor recommended the Gabapentin for now. However, she has had too much time trying to stop the vomiting that that took over her feet burning, so her feet didn't bother her as much. She was initially prescribed 1 pill at night before going to bed at 10pm, then when the 1 pill didn't work for a week, the doctor increased it to 2 pills at bed time at 10pm because it takes an hour to work. She stated that she was going to take the Gabapentin on Tuesday night, which was a mistake because she threw it right up and it tasted awful. Caller makes the comment she has not given the doctor the report of how that reacted yet. When probed for an NDC, Lot number or expiry date for the Gabapentin, the caller explains she can't see writing, it's in small print. She does see the Discard After: 08Feb2022. She needs to get her magnifying glass, she states she's going blind. She's been told she had macular degeneration. She doesn't think the Gabapentin is agreeing with her. She reads that it "May cause drowsiness, operating vehicle which she doesn't drive, may cause dizziness, may cause vision. Call if you experience mood changes, sadness, depression.." She started out taking one pill of the Gabapentin every night from Monday to Monday. The second Monday, 15 Feb2021, she started taking 2 pills at night for a total of 200mg. She took it this past Monday night until she had the vaccine and then she took it again, and now she was not taking it anymore. Her burning feet wake her up during the night, it starts at her ankles and goes halfway up her leg. She had to put her feet on a cold floor. Normally, she feels good and she usually doesn't get pain so whatever little bit of pain she has, that's the pain she gets. Her feet were burning like that for month before she called the doctor. she didn't know. Her feet were red before they started to burn, this is the latest thing. During the day, she is fine, only a nighttime her feet burn. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included body temperature: 98 on 24Feb2021; 99.2 on 25Feb2021; 96 on 25Feb2021. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of vomiting. She was going in for a test, clarified as an MRI on the 3rd of March for her eyesight.

The outcome of the event "Pain in arm" was recovering, the outcome of the event fatigue was not recovered, the outcome of the events "temperature 99.2" and "Vomiting" was recovered, and outcome of other events was unknown.
