Received 2nd dose of vaccine on 6/19/2021, left ear started feel muffling when hearing sound the next morning . Symptom got worse on the third day. Went to see pediatrician on that same day. Checked hearing, which was fine. Doctor couldn't find out why. Was told to wash nose for a couple of days and went back to the office if symptom did not get better in one week. Washed nose once with Sinus Rinse. Symptom got better on day five and completely recovered on day six. Also, on day five (6/23/2021), found a dime sized ulcers on the left side scalp of his head about one and half inches above his left ear. The ulcers seemed healing today, so he will not go to see doctor for that. He did not do anything different and never had that issue before. These were not listed as potential side effects and scared me. Think he will be fine. Wish some one could alert me ahead of time.

tiredness; weakness; head is burning; fatigue; drooling; hives; itching; redness; gained weight since the vaccine; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient's mother). A 12-years-old male patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, formulation: Solution for injection, Lot Number: ER8729; Expiration Date: 31Jul2021) via an unspecified route of administration, in left arm on 27May2021 (at the age of 12-years-old) as dose 1, single for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included patient had an allergic reaction to penicillin before. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. The patient had a meningitis vaccine a month before the covid vaccine. Patient's mother was calling on behalf of her 12 year old son. She stated her son received the first dose of the Pfizer COVID vaccine on 27May2021. On 27May2021,6 hours after receiving the vaccine the patient said he was very itchy and had hives on the left side of his chest. At first she thought the patient had poison ivy because it was like 3-4 inches across. The next day the patient said he was itchy when he sat up and it went up onto his neck and cheeks and that's when she realized it was hives. She called the doctor, applied cold compresses to the patient and gave him Benadryl. The hives resolved very quickly, the patient has never had hives or an allergic reaction before. By 2:30 the patient had the Benadryl and you couldn't see the red anymore. The patient could sit up but kept saying it itched and that went on for about 48 hours. You would have to look pretty closely to see the bumps. One week after the patient received the vaccine he was really weak and tired (on 03Jun2021). She stated her son also keeps having episodes of tiredness and weakness. It felt like the patient had been exercising and his legs were tired and his head felt like it was burning (on 03Jun2021). The patient's temperature was 97.7. The patient laid down and he slept pretty hard, and was drooling, for a couple of hours. When the patient woke up he didn't know where he was, the time or date and within a couple of hours the patient was fine. She didn't think anything of it the first time it happened. This event happened again 2 weeks after the vaccine. The doctor said they symptoms sound like mono but the patient's lymph nodes aren't swollen and he doesn't have a sore throat. The doctor thought the patient was having a delayed immune response to the vaccine because of the timing of it. The doctor said that by 3 weeks this should have resolved. The patient has had 2 mild episodes of this since, but he didn't go to sleep he just laid down. The doctor said to wait to get the second dose, so now it is 4 weeks since the first vaccine. The patient was at the 30th percentile for his height and average for his weight. The patient had gained weight since the vaccine but his mother didn't know if that was related to the vaccine. She was afraid of the patient having myocarditis with the second dose. The patient went to sleep after taking the Benadryl last time and she was afraid that the patient won't be able to tell her if he was having chest pain or problems breathing. She stated if his reaction was just hives she would give him Benadryl but with the risk of myocarditis after being given Benadryl he wouldn't be alert enough to tell her if something was going on with his heart due to him having fatigue as well already. The redness went away within 24 hours and the itching was gone in 48-72 hours. The redness was gone the evening of the 28th. The patient could still see and feel the bumps, the bumps were just white. The patient's head was burning happened the first 2 times he had these events. The patient's temperature was 97.7 and 98.1 fahrenheit when this happened. The other two times the patient said his head burned between his eyes and not like a headache. The doctor said that if the fatigue symptom continued he would recommend doing some blood work but since it has gotten better his mother may take him to an allergist. She thinks that the patient may be allergic to something in the vaccine. she was thinking of taking him to an allergist to see if he was allergic to one of the ingredients in the vaccine. She stated from the list of the ingredients the only ingredient she found that could be linked to the vaccine that could cause an allergic reaction would be PEG. She stated her son never had any allergies to medications or vaccines in the past. She stated she was not sure what advice should be given regarding her son receiving the second dose of the vaccine due to him having an allergic reaction to the first dose and tiredness and weakness. She stated she was not sure of the risks of vaccine versus him not being vaccinated. She would like to know if he should receive the second dose after experiencing side effects with the first dose. Reporter seriousness events was unspecified. Outcome of the events hives and itching recovered on May 2021, redness recovered on 28May2021, event tiredness and weakness was recovering and for other events was unknown.

I administered the Pfizer COVID vaccine to the patient at about 2pm. I completed the vaccine, put the used syringe into the sharps container, grabbed the bandage, and turned back toward the patient. As I did this, he started slumping over in the chair, and his eyes rolled back into his head. I immediately put my arms around him so he wouldn't fall out of the chair. The patient's father was in the room as well and knelt down in from of him. The patient's body spasmed for a few seconds, then he came to but was breathing heavily and starting to sweat. I called to technician in the pharmacy and asked him to call 911 at 2:03pm. I brought the patient a cool cloth and asked a technician to bring some water. The patient's breathing started to slow, but he was nauseous and dizzy. He dry-heaved once, and I put the garbage can in front of him. He slumped over the garbage can for a few minutes. Then he asked to lie on the floor. He seemed to do better lying on the floor. When the EMTs arrived, they attempted to have him sit in the chair again, but his dizziness returned, and he complained of being cold. The EMTs moved the patient to the gurney and transported him to the Hospital for further medical attention.

His mother was present and told us he had multiple allergies to foods and sulfites, as well as asthma. He used to carry an epi pen but does not currently, also has a history of asthma for which he carries a rescue inhaler. He received the Pfizer vaccine at approximately 9:15am in his left deltoid, and about 2 minutes later Mom notified me and the school nurse that he was starting to get "hives". I noted a localized, small area of erythema on his left upper arm around the bandaid, approximately silver dollar sized, not raised. School RN removed the bandaid. He did not complain of itching and at that time stated he felt like he was breathing fine. The school RN gave him 50mg of Benadryl PO per the mom's request at 0920. The patient was in no distress, breathing and speaking normally. At 0922 he stated he felt like his throat and tongue were swelling, so I had him remove his mask, and asked mom if his lips looked swollen to which she responded "yes". He stated it felt like it was hard to swallow. We placed a pulse ox on the patient and his oxygen saturations were 96-100%, HR 85-90, RR 30. We administered an adult epi pen (0.3mg of epinephrine) into his left lateral thigh at 0923 and had the school office call EMS. The patient remained in no acute distress, and said the swelling in his tongue felt better after the epi, but that his throat still felt swollen. Lungs clear bilaterally, RR remained 24-30, HR 110-115, pulse ox 98-100%, erythema on left upper arm resolved. Fire department arrived at 0935- report given and they checked a pulse ox as well.

Was fine the night before. Woke up and his eyelids were swollen and his lips were swollen. Immediately, my wife called Telehealth and described the situation. They said to get him some Benadryl and we gave him that. He also had a headache - we might have give him a Tylenol. With Benadryl - he took four or five doses according to the protocol on the Benadryl. He did not go to school. The next day, he was swollen but not as bad. My wife bought him Claritin and he didn't do anything because he didn't know which to take (Benadryl or Claritin). His swelling went away quite a bit that day without taking anything and he went back on Wednesday -there was still a little bit of swelling but not much. He wasn't feeling great though that whole week. He was still tired and was a bit headachy until Friday or so. Somewhere on the weekend he felt back to himself. He is due for second vaccine this weekend and we aren't going to have him take it then. We're concerned and have decided to hold - the physician said he shouldn't have had a COVID vaccine two weeks before this Pfizer one (he received the Varicella) on the 29th of April- -Dr said it should have been a month or so of waiting still before he had this vaccine after that.

Small rash developed near his lip; excessive tiredness; he wasnt able to eat.; This is a spontaneous report from a non-contactable consumer (parent, caregiver). A 13-year-old male patient (reporter's son) received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot/batch number unknown) via an unspecified route of administration in May2021 about one week ago at 13 years old at 1st dose, single for COVID-19 immunization. The patient was a special needs child who was non verbal autistic. Concomitant medications were not reported. The patient experienced small rash developed near his lip last Thursday (20May2021) and by the weekend (May2021) he was not able to eat.

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

Patient didn't have any side effects from his first dose. With his second, he felt fine for about 15 hours. Then his lips and eyes started to swell, his throat got itchy, & he started taking deep breaths. These are telltale signs of him starting to have an anaphylactic reaction. I gave him two Benadryl immediately, and monitored him. His breathing improved and I didn't have to inject him with his Epipen or take him to the hospital. The swelling in his eyes and lips didn't subside, however, so I gave him routine doses of Benadryl for about 12 hours while monitoring him. He was fine again, for another 20 hours or so, and then his symptoms started to come back. Benadryl stopped it completely that time and I didn't have to give him anymore.

Right eye had light streaks; Soreness in arm; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient mother). A 13-years-old male patient received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE, Solution for injection), via an unspecified route of administration in Arm Left on 17May2021 (Batch/Lot Number: EW0171, Age at the vaccination: 13-years-old) as single for covid-19 immunization. The patient medical history and family history was reported as none. Concomitant medication included multivitamin (he had been taking forever, it was a generic Flinstone brand). The patient was healthy before vaccination. History of all previous immunization with the Pfizer vaccine considered as suspect, additional vaccines administered on same date of the Pfizer suspect if applicable, list all vaccines administered on same date with the Pfizer vaccine considered as suspect and prior vaccinations (within 4 weeks) if applicable, list any other vaccinations within four weeks prior to the first administration date of the suspect vaccine was reported as none. Consumer stated that her 13-year-old son had the vaccine yesterday and today he had regular soreness in the arm and things like that. For an hour today, he had, she does not know, like he would see light streaks in his right eye. Reporter added that her son was given the shot in his left arm. He had the light streaks in his right eye, not his left eye. His left eye was fine, and the right eye was doing that. It slowly started dissipating and he would see it when he looked down and to the right. He would see it and it slowly went away. First, it was all of the eye. He was panicking because he thought he was going blind. She did tests without his glasses on, with lights off. He could see better with lights off so maybe it was light sensitivity. Right eye had light streaks: started about 30 minutes ago, or within the last couple of hours. It completely went away. Reporter added that soreness in arm started yesterday. He had the shot probably about 6 or 5:30 when he got it. By about 8, he started feeling soreness in the arm. He still has soreness today. Just a little bit worse than it was yesterday. She guesses it was from getting stiff overnight. The outcome of event Right eye had light streaks recovered on 18May2021 whereas, for other event not recovered. Lot/batch number is not available despite the follow-up attempts made. Follow-up attempts have been completed and no further information is expected.

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

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

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