Heavier breathing than normal. States it feels harder to breath, but no reports of swelling or itching. Also states that ears were ringing. Pharmacist attempted to check blood pressure on patients left arm with an automatic cuff, but the machine errored twice. Then attempted to check BP with a manual cuff. Reading was varied due to patient moving his arm and hard to hear. Seemed to be around 90/50, but not precise. After 10 minutes, patient stated he was starting to feel better, just felt thirsty. Pharmacist rechecked BP on right arm with a different automatic cuff and reading was 104/62, with a pulse of 101. Patient continued to improve, stating that visual disturbances were gone and hearing had returned to normal. Was able to stand and walk around without feeling dizzy. No difficulty breathing reported at that time. Patient and mom waited another 5 minutes to ensure he had no symptoms and then were able to leave approximately 25 minutes post vaccine.

The patient felt dizzy and had blurry vision about 5 minutes after the vaccine administration. I talked to the patient and mother who reported a history of anxiety that may be contributing. They asked if he could lay down in the vaccine room and upon entering he lost his balance and fell to his knees but did not get injured or lose consciousness. The patient said he was not hurt but I called 911. they arrived about 15 minutes later and evaluated the patient. The patient revealed he had ran 2 miles earlier that day and had nothing to eat or drink besides a Yoo-hoo all day. The EMTs said he was very dehydrated. The patient felt fine after another 10 minutes and the mother declined medical transport.

Exactly seven days after patient second vaccine, he boarded a 9:10AM flight, with his Dad and sister. Approximately 90 minutes into the flight, as patient watched a movie on his phone (which did not have a photosensitivity warning), he blacked out and doesn't remember anything else until after coming out of a seizure. What others saw, including his father (my husband), was a convulsing 16 year-old (nearly 6' tall and 155 pounds), who was sitting just in front of him, between two strangers. My husband quickly realized what was happening and was totally surprised and struck with some fear, as we have NEVER seen a seizure in our family or in patient before (we have six biological children). The airline called for medical help; a doctor and some other professionals came. My husband had EMT training many years ago, so didn't hold patient body, but did work a few times to keep his head up (patient was seated), so as not to allow the airway to close. Patient sister (age 18) was across the aisle, alone, watching all of the commotion take place, not knowing what to do or how to help, in tears, but handling it with poise and independence. After about 2-3 minutes, the intense convulsing stopped, and his seizure became quieter but still had movement. His eyes were rolled back and he was foaming a bit at the mouth. He was still not responsive. This went on for about 4-5 minutes. Then he stopped. His dad and the doctor asked him basic questions like, "who are you?" "how old are you?" "where are you?" He couldn't answer any other those. Another 3-5 minutes past, and finally he was able to answer "where are you?" with "I'm right here." Slowly, he came back to his "senses" but of course, was very tired and had a horrible headache afterward. The doctor and my husband decided it was best to have the plane divert to another city to get patient to a hospital as soon as possible. The three of them had to cancel their trip (work trip for my husband, which our 18- and 16-year-old children were accompanying him on for pleasure and travel). The Airlines was awesome about the whole thing. When the plane landed, they quickly escorted the three off the plane (patient walked slowly, then was put in a wheelchair when they got right off the plane). They were then transferred into an Ambulance and emergently sent to the Hospital. After several hours of waiting and testing, and patient not having any more seizure activity, his CT scan, blood tests, and chest x-ray were normal, so he was discharged with the instruction to get an MRI with and without contrast upon arrival back home, and then to follow up with a Neurologist. He has been home nearly a week now and feels like himself. He has had the MRI, which came back normal (yay!), but we are waiting to see a Neurologist at hospital. The ONLY thing in patient life that had changed for him in the days, weeks, months preceding this super surprising event, was his Covid #2 Pfizer vaccine. That is why we, and our supportive doctor, are suspicious that this may have been the cause. We are a little nervous about whether or not more seizures will take place, or perhaps his body is done dealing with his probably strong reaction to the immunologic/inflammatory variable. Maybe altitude could have played in, along with the vaccine, and been the straws that broke the camel's back of other things maybe brewing? But we don't think so. patient has had NO health issues, other than an appendix out 3 years ago! Thanks for listening. We want this variable to you as a data point.

6/3/21 at 1230 pm: Sudden onset of right arm numbness progressing to transient blurry vision, difficulty walking, right lower extremity weakness, difficulty moving his mouth, stuttering, imbalance, and right sided facial droop. He was admitted to hospital on 6/4/21. Found to have a demyelinating process (see imaging report below). He received IVIG treatment and IV steroids with some (but incomplet)e improvement and was discharged to Rehab on 6/16/21 on oral steroids. However, he had recurrence and progression of symptoms and was sent back to hospital on 6/19/21 with worsening right sided hemiplegia. He underwent repeat high dose IV steroids and initiation of plasmapharesis. He has currently (as of 6/25/21) completed 3 of 5 runs of plasmapharesis with marked improvement in symptoms but still has significant right sided motor deficits. Neurologists here now feel comfortable making a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis. He will likely be discharging home for ongoing therapy and treatment after he completes plasmapharesis on 6/28/21.

Patient received his 2nd dose of the Pfizer vaccine and fainted approximately minute after the dose was given. The patient's eyes rolled back as he fell to the floor where it appears that he had a mini seizure. We called for a code white and immediately began emergency procedures. I held the patient while he was sitting upright and kept speaking to him until he regain consciousness approximately 1 minute after he had syncope. The patient seemed very confused because he had asked the question "where am I," as he opened his eyes. He slowly became more alert as time passed by and was aware of his surroundings within the next 2 minutes. He then stated that he was hot and hungry and was given water (from me) and Gatorade from his mother at his request. It was not long after that that the patient fully recovered and was back to normal. I had them stay and observed him for at least 40 minutes just to make sure that he was ok. Statements were taken from a salaried member of management during this time. There was no medication needed and none given during this incident. Plans were made with patient's mother for a follow up and our contact information was given incase they needed to contact us for anything at all.

Patient is a 16-year-old boy with no significant past medical history presents to the emergency department with concerns for chest pain and shortness of breath. Patient had his second dose of the Pfizer Covid vaccine 3 days ago. Initially after the dose he did experience some myalgias, fatigue, and a sore throat. The symptoms lasted overnight and into the following day. They then remitted. Yesterday, patient was feeling well in the morning, however, in the evening he began to experience significant shortness of breath. This shortness of breath along with some anterior throat and upper chest discomfort with deep respirations. He denied any associated nausea, vomiting, or sweating. With these symptoms he went to hospital. There he was evaluated and a chest x-ray was performed. Patient's chest x-ray did not show any concerning findings. Patient was discharged in stable condition with albuterol and encouraged to follow-up with his primary care physician. Today, patient's shortness of breath and chest pain returned. He states that it is in the center of her chest with occasional radiation to his jaw. He denies any associated nausea, vomiting, or diaphoresis. His pain was initially severe in route to the emergency department, however, it has lessened and is now 4 out of 10 in severity. Patient otherwise denies any other fevers, lightheadedness, change in vision, abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhea, or dysuria. Medical Decision Making: Pt presented for chest pain. EKG was given to me shortly after obtaining it. This showed ST elevation inferiorly and laterally with possible reciprocal change in I, aVL & V1. Troponin was markedly elevated. I discussed case with our interventional cardiologist initially who wanted to take pt to the cath lab. However, pt is a minor and he noted that he couldn't cath a minor. This decision was made after the patient was already in the cath lab. Therefore, I contacted Hospital and discussed this case with the on call cardiologist. He recommended pt be tranferred to the ED where they will evaluate him and possibly do an echo of his heart. I discussed this with the ED physician at hospital who agreed to see pt. He was then tranferred via ambulance for further care.

10 days after receiving the first shot my son noticed blurred, wavy vision in his Right eye. We took him to the eye doctor the next day where his vision was 20/60 in that eye and they found a spot on the back of his retina. We were referred to a Retina Specialist. We saw Dr. two times where they determined he had had inflammation in the back of his eye and scar tissue was now in the place where the inflammation had been. We were told surgery would be needed to remove scar tissue and hopefully correct his vision a few lines. We decided to get a second opinion since we still didn't have any answers regarding what caused this to happen, if it was going to get worse and if he could possibly get it in his other eye. We just saw another Dr. where he confirmed that surgery was necessary to try to repair damage. His vision at this appointment was 20/100. They do believe it is stable but has fluctuated between 20/60 and 20/100. Dr. mentioned that he has another patient about the same age who had the same thing happen at about the same time as our son's eye condition began. I have since also found several cases around the world with similar experiences.

Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine EUA Second dose of Pfizer vaccine received Friday afternoon (4/2/2021). Went to bed Friday evening with "normal" side effects of mild fever and sore arm at injection site. Woke up Saturday morning with no sense of smell or taste. Called primary care provider who conducted a video visit and expressed concern that he may have had an asymptomatic case of COVID-19 prior to injection (no symptoms displayed at all in weeks prior). Order a COVID test for Sunday morning. Woke up Sunday morning with sense of taste and smell back. Proceeded with PCR test, which came back as "negative" on Sunday evening. No other symptoms observed, and other side effects noted above (sore arm, fever) resolved by Sunday morning as well. Seems to suggest loss of sense of taste and smell likely due to vaccine since there was a clear temporal relationship which resolved in approximately 24 hours.

Again went to the doctor, she put him on Prednisone with 40 mg for 3 days, 20 mg for 3 days, 10mg for 3 days and 10mg alternate days. It literally took more than 1 and half month still not recovered. Hives are still on and also severe cold with mucus and cough started since (05/09/21). Fever show up on and off even now. We're referred to allergy specialists. She asked to not take 2nd dose.

I have had wringing in my ears for about a year and when I got the vaccine about 2 or 3 days later my ringing became substantially worse. It used to be at about a 2 out of 10 but now it is like a 7 or 8 out of 10. My hearing has also become super sensitive. So sensitive to the point where talking with someone at medium volume hurts my ears. So sensitive that daily things that used to be no problem are now unbearable loud.

Pt was seen at ED on5/8 for L sided weakness in the setting of a headache. Pt?s mother reports that these symptoms began 2 days after receiving second dose of Pfizer COVID-19 vaccination in R deltoid. She says that on 5/6, pt complained of L arm weakness during cooking class at school, which was followed by a mild L sided headache later in the day. Symptoms resolved without intervention but recurred on 5/8 with associated L sided facial droop, slurred speech, L arm spasms, and L foot drag. Pt was seen at ED for this and had a HA (5/10 in severity) at that time -- workup was unremarkable with a normal head CT, laboratory workup, and resolution of symptoms. Pediatric Neurology evaluated the pt, deemed no further workup necessary, and advised outpatient follow up. Pt presented again to the ED on 5/10 with concern for full tonic/clonic seizure, witnessed by pt?s mother. Mother reports that she heard pt fall and went upstairs to find pt seizing on his bed -- says that pt had shaking of bilateral upper extremities (in flexed position close to chest) and symmetric lower extremity shaking; eyes were closed without clear focality or eye deviation. Also some drooling, though no incontinence or tongue biting. Episode lasted for approximately 2 minutes; pt was confused and did not recall what happened immediately afterwards but improved within the next 8 minutes. He was taken to the ED by EMS. By the time he arrived in the ED, he had left sided weakness again. He was given Keppra 1g, placed on EEG, and was admitted. EEG overnight was read "normal" and additional workup was unremarkable. Pt had MRI brain completed showing cortical abnormalities in the R parietal lobe, suspected to be related to recent seizure. MRA showed patent intracranial cerebral vasculature. MRV showed no evidence of dural venous sinus thrombosis. Weakness resolved by the morning and pt was back to baseline on morning of 5/11/21. However, around 9 AM, L sided weakness (face, arm>leg) with associated headache recurred. Mom says that this event was captured on EEG. He was then transferred to our facility. He was placed on pEEG and had repeat labs, imaging completed. Pt did have L sided facial droop, L arm weakness, and slurred speech on arrival, but this resolved within 24 hours. Pt had one additional episode of "wave" of L sided weakness including L sided facial droop and slurred speech at one other time during the hospitalization, but no additional seizure like activity. He was discharged on 5/14 with a normal neuro exam-- some labs (including labs of Rheum and Id workup were pending at time of discharge.) Primary and consulting teams elected to forgo steroids but reconsider should symptoms worsen or return. Pt was readmitted on 5/16-- had an episode of expressive aphasia + headache while at a social gathering; states that he became overwhelmed by the noise. No additional seizure like activity.

On 4/6 my son noticed changes with his vision which continued to 4/7 at which time we brought him to his pcp. She referred us to his eye doctor. They got him in that afternoon, did an exam, told us to follow up that Friday. At the 4/9 follow up he was diagnosed with sixth nerve palsy on the left eye. We scheduled a MRI and lab work. Lab work came back fine. He went for the MRI on 4/16. The MRI showed several brain lesions pointing towards MS. We went to a medical center on 4/20 where they thought the finding lesion were incidental and not related to MS. We saw a neuro-opthamologist on 4/21, who said he felt my son did have MS with sixth nerve palsy. We saw a neurologist on the afternoon of 4/21 who said patient didn't meet the criteria of MS and to follow up another MRI in 3 months. That weekend patient started with areas on numbness. He was due for second covid injection which all providers agreed with us getting. He got his second dose on 4/24 during this flare of numbness. We went back the neurologist on 4/26. Patient was given a three day iv steroid infusion, lab work and follow up MRI. The follow up MRI showed more lesions in his brain which lead us to the neurologist in another state. Dr reviewed both MRIs, felt the lesions were incidental, the flare of numbness as well at the sixth nerve palsy of his eye were related to inflammation related to the vaccine he received.

My healthy 18-year old son had his first dose of Pfizer, and within a few minutes he felt dizzy. His heart rate was also rapid. He didn't think much of it, but the dizziness persisted and so they had him lay down with feet up. After about 20 minutes, he began to vigorously shake (rigors I believe is what it is called.) He felt numb in both arms and also his tongue and mouth. We had 3 nurses attending to him, and after about 30 minutes they decided to send him to the ER for evaluation since the very strong shaking and other symptoms were worsening. The shaking, dizziness, numbness all subsided after about an hour. He was given a Zyrtec upon first symptoms about 15 minutes after dose. The ER doc doesn't believe it was an allergic reaction but potentially a strong vasovagal response and immune response. He felt tired after but was completely fine 2 hours later. We were discharged from the ER a few hours later after evaluation. Vitals were in normal range including blood sugar, blood pressure and oxygen. He was fully hydrated prior and had a turkey sandwich and orange prior to coming so was not low on food either. The shaking was very extreme and concerning. It has been almost 24 hours and he is feeling fine other than a sore arm.

Vision problem. My son has been a homeschooled student for many years, using computer for his schooling without any problems. He had a minor injury to one eye shortly before the vaccination (scratched with hand), but after the shot, he complained of vision problems in both eyes. Redness, dryness, pressure, uncomfortable. Unable to concentrate and stay reading for more than a few minutes at a time. His primary doctor is now treating with antibiotic drops, but will take him to the eye doctor if he does not get better by Thursday as he will be done with the eye drops. We have also added allergy medicine, which seems to help a little. He is due for his second shot on 4/29. I still need him to get the shot to be protected from Covid, so hopefully, he will be better.

The symptoms got increasingly worse and his vision became completely blurry and he was unable to focus his eyes and his photosensitivity so severe that he had to be in a dark room, even when his eyes were closed. His headache increased. We initially went to an urgent care clinic where they ran bloodwork, and then we were sent to an eye specialist for a thorough exam, which was excruciating for him to sit through on account of having to examine his eyes open and with light. After a few hours at the eye specialist we went home and he went to bed, unable to sleep because of his extreme headache. The symptoms lasted the following day, and the day after with loss of visual focus, extreme headache, and the rash on his eyelids appeared to had gotten a bit worse. I would say that Saturday evening his eyesight began getting gradually better (vaccine on Wednesday evening). His headache and aversion to sound continued. Over the next week his vision began gradually getting better, different eyes at different rates, as well as his headache. He still has the rash on his eyelids.

severe dehydration; severe dehydration; thirst; could not sleep at night/ lack of sleep/ sleep interrupted; she had never heard him so anxious or disturbed that he could not get relief; she had never heard him so anxious or disturbed that he could not get relief; This is a spontaneous report received from a contactable consumer (medical technologist). A 19-year-old male patient (reporter's grandson) received BNT61B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number not reported), on 04Mar2021 (at the age of 19-year-old) as 1st dose, single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. Vaccine was not administered at military facility. The patient's medical history included diabetic (since 1 years old, he was diagnosed 1 week after getting the measles/mumps/rubella (MMR) vaccine), dehydrated and rapid heartbeat (patient once before got dehydrated on the Hiking Trail with a rapid heartbeat). The patient's concomitant medications included insulin for diabetic. The patient previously received measles/mumps/rubella (MMR) vaccine. The reporter (caller) mentioned that his grandson got the 1st dose of the vaccine on 04Mar2021. Several hours later (04Mar2021), he experienced severe dehydration and thirst and could not sleep at night. He was very very uncomfortable and usually did not complain regarding experiences. He was young and going to college and he was living on his own. He was also diabetic. She was worried about his safety regarding his intake of the 2nd dose, so she was wondering if this had been reported and for any recommendations before and after getting the 2nd dose. They were consulting with his endocrinologist and the nurse at the endocrinologist's clinic said that they recommend young diabetic people to drink tons of water when getting the vaccine. Caller mentioned that she herself got the Pfizer vaccine and had no problem with it. Caller mentioned that his Grandson was diabetic since 1 years old. He was diagnosed 1 week after getting the MMR vaccine. She also mentioned that his grandson just recently got in college and he was in the younger side of the spectrum. Caller is asking if there is any data that would include her grandson's conditions in the clinical trials. Caller stated she was calling about the Pfizer COVID Vaccine and stated her grandson who was the patient was the one who received his first dose of the vaccine on 04Mar2021 and that day he received the vaccine he told her that starting in the evening that same day (04Mar2021) she had never heard him so anxious or disturbed that he could not get relief and the adverse reaction he had was severe dehydration and thirst and it was giving him a fit. Caller stated she thinks he was probably 5'10'' in height or so and thinks he weighed around and between 175-180 pounds when she last asked him. Caller stated she was not an HCP but was a medical technologist calling on behalf of the patient and because she was a medical technologist, she is medically trained. Caller stated she had not been able to get back in touch with the patient to get all the details for the report before she called around to get help but also stated the patient had his sleep interrupted after the vaccine was administered and he could not sleep but thinks this is all resolved and must have been resolved but she couldn't say for certain how long that he could not sleep or how long the severe dehydration or thirst lasted but she can find out. Caller stated the patient had not yet had the 2nd dose of the Pfizer COVID Vaccine and had his patient card and stated she did not have the lot, expiry date or NDC for the first dose. Caller stated for the indication for which the patient was administered the COVID vaccine, she thought because the patient was diabetic and the HCP was very anxious for him to have defense against COVID and against all various types of virus or the school may have required it but she was not sure; states it was for the patient's own safety that his endocrinologist wanted him to have the vaccine. Caller stated that the patient did not have treatment for the reported event and he did not say to her that he had any treatment; caller stated she doubted the infirmary at his school is even open at the University and she did not know whether the patient would go to the infirmary or not. Caller stated she was calling to find out of there have been any reports or feedback on this reaction that the patient had or the adverse situation the patient had several hours after receiving the Pfizer COVID Vaccine; states specifically for the severe dehydration and thirst the patient experienced after being administered the Pfizer COVID Vaccine. Caller stated the patient was due to get his 2nd dose of the Pfizer COVID vaccine three weeks from 04Mar2021 and she was most anxious to find out what recommendations were given or if Pfizer heard complaints about other adverse events like the ones she was reporting on the patient. Caller stated the patient once before got dehydrated on the Hiking Trail with a rapid heartbeat and he was with his father at that time; no further details provided by the caller. Caller stated the patient reported this to her in conversation a day or so after he had the Pfizer COVID Vaccine and she is medically trained and it has been a long time since she used that medical training but the patient is diabetic since the age of 1 and he had good care and has been under the care of the hospital endocrinologist and his HCP since he was found to have diabetes and he uses his insulin pump very well. Caller stated the patient was off to college where very few were attending college and the patient had a very undesirable evening after the vaccine of lack of sleep and he was so thirsty and could not get hydrated and she knows dehydration is bad for anybody even if they aren't diabetic or if they have a life threatening type of illness but the patient was at school and did not have a family member to help take care of him and he was due for his 2nd shot three weeks from 04Mar2021. Caller stated she was trying to find out the best route for him to go report this and she told him to report the reaction to the HCP and to call the HCP who prescribed the vaccine; stated the patient's endocrinologist was not able to get in touch with the patient and he was not answering the phone; stated the patient is at college and he was on online courses. Caller stated she was very anxious to find out enough information about this and it is a concern to his treating physician and she was asking about recommendations about the patient not having his 2nd dose of the Pfizer COVID Vaccine; stated she spoke with the nurse that works with the endocrinologist for all of these 18 years they have cared for the patient. Caller states the HCP's nurse stated she had found that patients that receive the vaccine and have diabetes and are treated at the hospital they recommend that those patients drink tons and tons of water before having the vaccine because some types of people with diabetes have extreme thirst. Caller stated she had no vaccine names, patient information or lot number or other information to provide on the patients that had the vaccine and have diabetes. Caller stated she spoke at the HCP office and stated there was no need for secrecy and HIPPA was not in Pfizer's domain; stated she cannot depend on the patient to look out for his own safety and she as a medical technologist used to give patients ordered glucose tolerance tests and she knew of the reactions that occurred with those patients and she did not want the patient to be stuck and wanted for him to do the smart thing of spending the night at home rather than drive back. Caller stated for those patients she administered glucose tests to she had no patient information or lot numbers or other information to provide and it was years ago before the Pfizer COVID vaccine came out. Caller stated she worked trying to get patient's diabetes under control at the University where she worked. Caller stated she already called and waited for organization but did not speak to anyone and left them a number to call her back a couple of days ago but she had not heard back; stated there were 18 people in the phone queue before her and she was hoping not to have to wait again.

Initial presentation Patient was in his usual state of good health until 4/19 when he received his first dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. Two hours after the injection he became nauseous and vomited multiple times. Overnight he experienced diffuse myalgia and suprapubic pain. He awoke the next day to a pustular rash on his chin, forehead, chest and back. The patient describes similar previous rashes that have resolved spontaneously. The next day he began to experience gross hematuria and presented to the ED with a temperature of 98.9, blood pressure of 100/69mmHg, heart rate of 110bpm, respiratory rate of 18 breaths per minute and an O2 saturation of 97% on room air. On examination, patient was ill-appearing with diffuse pustules on his face, chest and back, periorbital edema, and leukoplakia of the tongue and buccal mucosa. His abdomen was soft and tender to palpation in the suprapubic area and at both costovertebral angles. Hospital course In the ED the patient was found to have a metabolic acidosis of pH 7.33 with an anion gap of 16, lactate 2.6, neutrophilic leukocytosis (22k), acute renal insufficiency with a BUN of 45 and creatinine 3.81 (baseline is 0.76). The patient?s urine demonstrated packed RBCs and 5-10 WBCs. He was admitted to the medicine service for further management. On the medicine floor he was initially found to have rhabdomyolysis (CK 584), worsening renal failure (Creatinine 8), follicular conjunctivitis by skin biopsy, a low CD3/CD4 count (CD4 91, CD3 47, CD8 258) with normal complement, and bilateral tinnitus. CT A/P without contrast showed increased attenuation of renal pelves and ureters consistent with hemorrhage, but no renal stones or hydronephrosis was seen. The patient was treated with pulse dose 500mg IV Methylprednisilone for 3 days and then transitioned to 60mg Prednisone. The patient?s pustular rash and oral leukoplakia greatly improved while on pulse dose steroids, but his kidney function continued to decline (Creatinine rising from 8 to 11), and the patient?s bilateral tinnitus progressed to bilateral sensorineural deafness over 2 days. Bilateral hearing loss prompted an MRI of the brain which identified several punctate infarcts across multiple vascular territories in bilateral cortices and left cerebellum.

Pt 20year old male- came to the pharmacy for a walk in covid vaccine. He filled out the vaccine consent form. I asked him if he was feeling ok today - he said yes. he presented as looking in healthy condition. I then asked him if he has ever had a bad reaction to a vaccine and he said not that he knew of but that he did not like needles. I told him that was normal, explained the shot was a quick pinch no stinging and would be over before he knew it. I encouraged him to relax his arm muscle and as soon as he did I gave the vaccine. I started to tell him he could take Tylenol or ibuprofen if he should get a sore arm and to make sure he is drinking plenty of water as hydration helps our bodies- he then asked if he could have some water and then tilted his head back and was passed out for i'd say 4 seconds. I massaged his arm and neck as he became kinda ridged and talked him back. he was out for about 4 seconds. I yelled for our store co manager who happened to be close by to come to the pharmacy and call 911. When he regained consciousness he started to sweat. he said he felt cold and thirsty. I gave him some water to drink. I explained to him what had happened and told him that we had called 911 out of precaution. I discussed with him calling parents and he wanted to call himself - he made the call to his mom on his cell phone to have her come pick him up. EMS arrived in about 10 minutes. they said his blood pressure was really low 100/60 and wanted to take him in but the patient refused. he also refused getting his blood sugar tested as he now told us he was deathly afraid of any medical procedure. ems left. I offered him some more water and chips. he drank 2 full bottles of water and ate a small bag of chips. his mom showed up a few minutes later to drive him home- we explained to her what had happened.. I told her to monitor his blood pressure at home (she said she had a machine)she said she should have known better than to let him come alone as she knew he reacted bad to medical situations. He left about 30 minutes after he got his vaccine. walked out on his own needed no assistance.

But he had the chills, he had fatigue is still there and it started to subside and then couple days after since it subside, fatigue never left but then he started to get chills again and fatigue was even more pronounce and then started more congestion and then he has ear infection, which we took him to doctor 2 days ago and he has started antibiotics. So the whole time from the time he got the dose till now he is been not feeling good, so now with the antibiotics he is feeling a little better and on 04Jun or 05Jun, like Friday to Saturday he was expecting little shortness of breath and then he was having a little bit of left side chest pressure, he had the arm pain initially and the site of injection was really painful and then the fatigue probably started the same time Friday Saturday he just, he didn't looked good at all, he just looked white.

The patient still has upper respiratory infection but has no fever now. The reporter down not want the patient to have the shot and have another problem. The reporter doesn't know if the events were due to the vaccine or maybe at the time the patient was starting to get the problem, it seems like it coincided.

The patient went to work and was sent home since the co-workers were complaining that the patient was coughing which started on Jul2021. The patient's doctor won't let the patient come until he had a COVID test, so the patient went to urgent care, where the patient underwent a COVID-19 test on Jul2021 and saw a doctor there. About a week or later, the patient's doctor let him come since his COVID-19 test last Jul2021 was negative. The doctor saw the patient and because of no improvement of the patient's upper respiratory infection, the patient was put on steroids and was changed to stronger antibiotics. The reporter wanted to know if it was safe for the patient to take the second dose even if his symptoms are still ongoing. The events resulted in physician's office visit and therapeutic measures were given as a result of the events. Outcome of the event upper respiratory infection was not recovered, for ear infection was recovering, and for other events was unknown. Information on the lot/batch number has been requested.

This is my second COVID Pfizer vaccine dose. After both dosages, a couple of days later, I began "smelling" smells that weren't there. In my case, I was smelling "cigarette smoke" and "wood smoke" smells even though there were no cigarettes or wood burning in my vicinity. I had no health complications as a result, it was only slightly unpleasant at times. I did not seek treatment for this because it was a minor inconvenience and the issue went away after my first dose in a week. It hasn't been a week since my second dose but I assume it will go away similarly.

Sometime after getting the Pfizer vaccine I noticed that my private area, underarms, and some other things now smell of onion. At first I had thought that it was the drink (Clear American Sparkling Water: Peach Flavor) that was changing my scent because it smelled and tasted heavily of onion. However, my thinking changed when the other flavors of this brand smelled and tasted as they should. My family and friends are not aware of the scent and cannot smell nor taste it. I have also noticed the scent outside my apartment complex on campus. There are no wild onions growing outside, but I can smell the scent when I walk near certain flowers or bushes before it fades away. Upon returning home the scent is still there. Showering controls the scent, but it gets worse throughout the day and makes me very subconscious about how I smell. I do not consume onion on a weekly basis, so the vaccine is the only oddball in my daily diet, so I believe that it is the culprit for this change. I believe that it may have potentially altered my sense of smell opposed to my thinking of my body odor itself changing. I have spoken to my Nurse Practitioner and we've decided to play the waiting game, but she advised me to send in a notice of this to the CDC for additional help if possible.

Unusual but manageable and didn?t feel terrible otherwise,maybe slightly tired. Tried leaning forward to make feel better. Day 3 and 4 chest pain/heart squeezing continued and was bothersome and, went to Urgent Care this day April 13th. EKG was a little abnormal and told to follow up with a cardiologist and take Advil. The heart squeezing feeling continued. Early morning hours April 14th very sick, excessive shaking (no fever), extreme nausea, faint feeling, dry cough (laying on bathroom floor). Not much, if any chest pain at the time. Went to ER. Not much chest pain during ER visit but nauseous and shaking etc. Test were run. Told that the symptoms were a delayed reaction to the vaccine and to follow up with a cardiologist because possible abnormal EKG and to take Advil as needed. Overnight at home, no chest pain but an hour of the shaking and nausea returned but not as bad as before. Over next couple days the chest pain/squeezing, slightly shakes and light headedness would come and go and by 4-16 feeling pretty great. The heart feeling mildly at most in the background but not debilitating. Starting week of April 20th maybe 4-5 flare ups with chest pain and no pattern but not debilitating. Could happen at rest. April 27th bigger flare up more debilitating, had to lie down, heart squeezing pain and maybe some wheezing when breathed in but not tightness in throat. Lasted about 30 minutes. Was just doing schoolwork with friends at the time so not under any physical or emotional stress at the time. After this from April 20 to May 3rd feeling heart symptom mildly but not debilitating and could resume normal active life. Had cardiology appt. May 3rd with nurse practitioner. According to NP the 12 Lead EKG run that day correlated with abnormal EKG from ER. Normal sinus rhythm with sinus arrhythmia Rightward axis Pulmonary disease pattern. Incomplete right bundle branch block Abnormal ECG. Given 4 lead heart monitor to wear for a week. Also ordered a CV CT angiogram coronaries with calcium scoring. The test could not be scheduled through them until July. Also told could go on hiking trip out west and to stop and rest if felt pain. For parents reassurance about hiking trip, had a second opinion over teleconference call with Dr., myocarditis specialist to confirm would be safe on hiking trip. Dr. said he should be good to go. He said these heart symptoms related to the second vaccine could fade over time. Hiking trip May 20th to May 30th. Did fine with exertion and just a few small episodes of the chest pain, light headedness and maybe a little shaking but these were at rest. Also, 4 lead heart monitor report was good. Returned from trip May 30th and no chest pain or symptoms for approximately 3 weeks through June 17th. June 18th went to urgent care for sore throat and ear. Prescribed amoxycillin. Took the amoxycillin and one Advil sinus, that evening had a heart squeezing episode return. This was the first time in almost 3 weeks.

I am healthy 23 year old male. I have never suffered from any sort of illness or conditions. After massive push by the goverment and incentivization to take the New Covid-19 Vaccines deemed safe , I went ahead and received the Pfizer shot on 05/24/2021. A day after I felt headache and dizziness. This stopped on the third day. Later I would have episodes of blurred vision. That stopped. But what has really affected me and continues to affect me , is that a week after I have developed major difficulty breathing. I never , ever not even once in my life have suffered from breathing problems. It all started on an afternoon a week after the shot randomly with really fast heart palpitations and after those palpitations stopped I was choking, I could not breathe at all. After this , I am having trouble breathing normally or getting enough air in along with tightness in the chest area. For instance, I struggle with two breaths and then the third I will likely get more air in. I have felt incredible tightness in my chest. There has been nights where I cannot sleep because I am unable to breathe , and feel like I am choking. So , I need to get up and walk around the house to catch my breath. I am having shortness of breath and my breathing is not like it used to be. I do not have any fever or any other symptoms , the persisting problem is the tightness and difficulty breathing. I already went to the Pulmonary doctor a couple days ago and underwent testing that are pending. I do not understand why this happened to me , I am not sure if it is a coincidence or if there is a relation between me having taken that Pfizer shot . But prior to taking that vaccine I never once had trouble with my breathing and never felt tightness around my chest. This is new to me and it scares me to think this might stay with me forever, whatever it is. I pray it goes away. I am still having trouble . and the fact that in the past I never thought about my breathing because it was normal, and now it is a constant issue throughout the day, moments when I can get air and others when it is very difficult. I am reporting this to leave a record of this incident because prior to me taking this vaccine , I was in fact a fully healthy person free of any sort of health issues.

Chest pain issues have resolved mostly. The most debilitating thing to come after the vaccine was the onset of ringing, buzzing persistently in left ear, comes and goes in right ear. Started 2 weeks and 2 days after second dose of Pfizer vaccine, and after flying multiple times and started when I got back on the 13th of April 2021. It has remained constant but has improved slightly from where it was in the beginning, have been doing Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (five 1 hour sessions, spaced about a week-week and a half apart over the last 2 months to see if things improve). Things I would say have improved but I am running out of patience and financial means to keep going to a doctor. I feel helpless, depressional, work performance is awful, and lastly very suicidal than I have ever been. Just want to die.

About a week or two after my second shot, I started developing constant, uncontrollable blinking. It feels like a spasm and causes other parts of my face to spasm (my jaw especially). I think it was exacerbated by my use of Zyn nicotine pouches, because the issue got better once I discontinued use. A couple weeks have passed since I stopped using this product though and the blinking/spasms persist.

throat fell really tight. They told him was throat was closing up.; Anaphylaxis/anaphylactic shock/severe allergic reaction; Swelling of the throat/throat was swelling; Trouble breathing; Itchy throat; Said that his throat felt really thirsty.; He is very upset./He is pretty devastated.; His throat started to do it again.; They said maybe it was something he ate or maybe sinuses; This is spontaneous report from contactable consumer (patient) and contactable consumer (patient's mother). A 25-year-old male patient received the first dose for BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Lot No. EWO187) at single dose for COVID-19 immunization on 19May2021 at 12:00 or 13:00. Relevant history included Diabetes, obesity, endocrine abnormalities, genetic/chromosomal abnormalities, respiratory illness, compromised immune status and Allergies. The patient had Allergies to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs that can induce anaphylactic shock, severe reaction, swelling of face and throat. Relevant concomitant drug was unknown. No history of all previous immunization with the Pfizer vaccine considered as suspect. No Additional Vaccines were Administered on Same Date of the Pfizer Suspect If applicable. No Vaccines were Administered prior vaccinations (within 4 weeks). Family Medical History was none. About 3-5 minutes after being administered the Vaccine, the patient immediately developed anaphylactic shock. He was transported via ambulance to the Emergency Room on 19May2021 where he verified he was admitted to the hospital Emergency room for about 5-6 hours and discharged from the hospital the same day, 19May2021. He was told not to get any additional doses. He was still having swelling of the throat and went back to the ER today and was given a steroid prednisone 40mg a day for 5 days. He was advised to take benadryl also. He said he didn't get any IVs or anything. He had a past medical history of anaphylactic reaction to NSAIDS. He has been advised not to get the second dose. The patient stated the anaphylactic shock occurred with trouble breathing, throat was swelling and itchy throat. He did go into ER, they told him to just keep drinking fluids, that there was nothing else they could really do. When he was seen in the emergency room they gave him Benadryl and a steroid: Prednisone for now which he is on for the next couple of days. He was told that after 2 days or something, that after getting injected that he wouldn't have any symptoms-but he is still having those pretty severe symptoms of anaphylactic shock. Initial onset of anaphylactic shock was about 3-5 minutes after Pfizer Covid Vaccine shot was administered. Within 10-15 minutes he had swelling of tongue and throat and difficulty breathing. They called an ambulance, the ambulance took him to the Hospital emergency room where he was admitted and discharged that same date on 19May2021 after about 5-6 hours; he reported discharge time was around 16:40. They told him to come back if he had any issues that occurred over next couple of days or worsening or causing problems; to call back the nurses line. He was on a lot of Benadryl, a lot of antihistamines. When he gets off the antihistamines almost all the allergic reactions of the anaphylactic shock reoccur. This morning, 21May2021, he didn't take any Bendaryl before bed, and this morning when he woke up he was alright. After being at work like 30 minutes he felt the itchiness; scratchy throat; swelling of tongue; a little swelling of the throat; difficulty breathing. He took Benadryl and called the hotline who told him to call the Emergency room, he called the emergency room and went there. He talked to them this morning because he went to work and had issues breathing. He called and they told him to come in asap, so he went in to the emergency room; they gave him Benadryl and told him there was nothing else they could do other than him taking the steroid: Prednisone. The patient was in the hospital 3 days and will be day 4 tomorrow. He was trying to figure out how long this will last. They told him to talk to his doctor. They basically told him they were not responsible. The patient's mother reported that her son received the shot Wed 19May2021. Does not know if the Walgreen's reported this. He left there in an ambulance within 10 minutes of getting the shot. They took him to the emergency room and he got mixed information. He went back again today. They blew him off and told him maybe it was something he ate. She assumed that an allergic reaction would be about 24 hours but this is day 3. She is scared he may be taking too much Benadryl. He said he felt like he needed something to drink. Said that his throat felt really thirsty. He went back inside since his throat fell really tight. They told him was throat was closing up. They saw that his throat was swollen and they called the paramedics. Within 15 minutes they came and brought him to the emergency room. Nobody had given him Epi. They were going to give it to him an Epi pen but he wanted to wait for the paramedics. He was freaking out. The paramedics showed up and they were unable to give him Epi, stating he didn't have hives. He only received Benadryl. They he had to have to give him extra Benadryl because whatever they gave him in the IV because the first didn't work and his throat was still closing up. It made him feel like a drug addict asking for Benadryl. She was not sure if they gave him Benadryl in the ambulance, knows that it was given in the emergency room. The Benadryl may have been started in the ambulance but she is not sure. They did give him oxygen in the ambulance. Clarified he was in the ER over 4 hours, but was not admitted to the hospital. They gave him steroids but forgot to send him home with steroids. He had to call to find out about getting them and they told him they forgot to send the prescription in. He was late starting the next dose of steroids. He went back to the ER today, day 3. He didn't feel too bad today and went to work. After exerting a little energy and moving around, his throat started to do it again. He didn't have Benadryl on him. He left work because he thought it was going to close up again the day he got the shot. Once he calmed down, he took Benadryl. He called the hospital to ask if this was normal. He was told that it is not normal and was told that if he still felt bad, to come to the hospital. They said maybe it was something he ate or maybe sinuses. He spoke to one of the doctors. They had never shown him how to use an ePi pen. He does not know how long this will last. He gets scared. Treatment: Has only been taking Benadryl. He started the steroids yesterday and today. They had given him Benadryl today in the ER and he is home now. The patient visited to the Emergency room twice, first time by ambulance, confirmed he was not admitted. He was pretty devastated. The outcome of events was unknown.

Over a month after receiving my second dose of Pfizer, I had an episode of lightheadedness, dizziness, shakiness, and fatigue. I attributed it to dehydration and laid down and ate a snack, I began to feel better after 1-2 hours. A week later I had another lightheadedness incident that sent me back to bed (this one being slightly worse). I experience slight chest pain in my upper right chest muscle. It took me a day to recover from this spell. I constantly felt weak and as if I was about to faint. I went to the doctor two days later and got blood work done and measured my blood pressure. Everything came back normal. On Saturday June 19th, I had another near-fainting experience in a public setting. My hearing changed, I couldn't think straight, I was very shaky and weak, and I tried to drink a lot of water. Nothing helped so I went home and once I got in bed I was aggressively shaking. Since then I have been bed-ridden for the week, and unable to do normal activities such as go for walks, exercise, or go to work. I am going to visit a cardiologist tomorrow.
