Immediate nausea, hot flash and heart palpitations at time of injection, soreness for 3 days, and on the 4th day I had a general feeling of malaise, which worsened until I developed a fever. Severe fatigue and constant fever as high as 105 for three days, and finally went to the ER. Immediately treated for sepsis. Full blood panel, blood cultures, x-ray and CT scan. Also ran some additional cultures for respiratory pathogens. The Dr?s had a tough time determining what it was. They saw a very small area which they called pneumonia, however, I?ve had pneumonia and this was not what it was. Final discharge paperwork stated Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome.

I got the vaccine shot on a Thursday, and woke up the next Friday morning feeling strong tingles on my face, weird sensations, & some swelling of lymph nodes had started. i thought i might be having a minor reaction, or it felt like i might. Saturday morning i woke up w' some bumps & inflammation w' a painful red sore on my nose bridge next to my right eye. i almost went to urgent care Saturday night but talked myself out of it, then Sunday woke up & had more inflammation & swelling, tenderness, & pain & discomfort. i went to my doctor on Monday as it felt intolerable & was getting worse, i told him about getting the vaccine, reporting it felt like my immune system was confused or something, he said there were some vaccine reactions, that it was possible for it to affect people differently, that it was rare, that he didn't know, but he said it looked like shingles was attacking me & referred me to the Eye Institute to see Dr, who tested me even as my eye was swelling shut. There was a danger it could get in the eye. Prescribed Acyclovir antiviral. My condition kept worsening but i kept taking the antivirals & eventually responded well to them. It hurt everywhere, & the pain was indescribable, at almost every level. It was excruciating. i was fighting off the attack by the 3rd week & could open my eye, but was still in a lot of pain, had to rest almost all the time, could barely eat & speak for weeks, or go outside in the sun for more than a couple minutes, because of the brightness etc. & was overall incapacitated for about 5 weeks. It was completely disabling. The doctors were very impressed w' how intense the condition was, & showed me to all the students at the Eye Institute. They were pleased w' how well i have been healing up. My immune system feels strong too. It was just brutal but i am recovering now, thankfully. i still feel prolonged effects though, w' even some pain at times during the day, or if i am active then i feel like i have to rest. i am just really thankful it doesn't hurt like that now. There is probably gonna be some permanent scarring because of the damage to my face from the nervous system inflammation, as my face is heavily scarred now because of the attack, i could maybeget plastic surgery for the scarring on the right side of my face.

Following my second Pfizer dose on on 4/2/21 I began having a strong burning pain in my right forearm and wrist area. I perceived this initially to be carpal tunnel and it started on 4/5/21. I self treated with ibuprofen for a few days with no improvement, then saw my PCP on 4/9. My PCP thought this to be tenosynivitis, and prescribed Methylprednislone. The steroid treatment helped for the first few days but then the pain quickly spread to my right leg in the thigh area. Same type of pain, burning and intense. I was able to walk, but with a slight limp. I saw my PCP again on 4/15 to discuss the new symptoms. He began researching possible conditions and also ordered some blood tests for common auto-immune diseases (Uric Acid, C-Reactive Protein, CMP, ANA). Everything returned normal except for C-Reactive (value- 50+). To be sure it wasn?t a case of septic arthritis, I was placed on an antibiotic on 4/17 (Keflex) for 7 days. The Keflex did not help and actually gave me a slight fever (100.1) and I missed work on 4/19,20,21. I started to improve on 4/16 but the symptoms were still present. As a followup, my PCP ordered a more comprehensive blood panel to be reviewed at my next appointment on 4/30. The following blood tests were ordered: TSH 3rd Gen Blood, CBC, CMP (BAMP, TP ALB TBIL,ALK, AST, ALT), and LIPID Panel. On PCP appointment on 4/30, my symptoms continued to present in legs and right arm. All values from blood tests were normal. He ordered a lower back xray, which was scheduled for 5/11. At this point, my PCP referred me to a rheumetologist as he had exhausted his options. Unfortunately, the earliest rheumatology available was 5/18. On 5/18 appointment with rheumatology resulted in more tests: Parvovirus B19, Rheumatoid Factor, Serum Protein Electrophoresis, Urine PRotein/Creatinine Ratio, Immunoglobulin Assay-Blood, Immunofixation Procedure Blood, ASO- Blood, CPK Blood, Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide Antb, Hep B Surface AG, Hep C AB- Blood, Microalbumin urine random. All tests read as negative or normal except ASO. Rheumetologist referred me to Infectious Disease for further testing on 5/26, which resulted in the following blood tests: Ehrlichia Chaffeensis AB IGG, DNASE B Antibody, HLA Typing A B C Single - Blood, Legionnella -Blood, Prostate Specific Antigen, Unrinanalysis with Microscopic, Chlamydia and GC RNA AMP, Upper respiratory throat culture. He also ordered an ECG, a chest XRAY (PA and Lateral), CT scan of the pelvis. On 6/4 at a followup appointment, he ordered Crypto AG and C-Reactive Protein. At this point, CRP value was 180.74. I worked my last day of work on 5/14 as the pain became too intense to manage. As the week progressed, I slowly lost my ability to walk and care for myself. I could walk only 10-15 feet at a time, and doing so would cause a severe flare-up of pain in my legs. I was mostly bedridden for 2 weeks starting on 5/20 and was only getting up very minimally. I needed a wheelchair for transport to my appointments on 5/25, 5/26, 6/2, 6/3. By 6/4, I was barely able to walk to that appointment, but the office is very small so I was able to make a short distance. My rheumetologist, having reviewed all my normal test results ordered an EMG on my legs and right arm and also an MRI on my lumbar and cervical. EMG conducted on 6/24 and revealed some nerve damage and signs of neuropathy in my legs; and also carpal tunnel in the right wrist. MRI Lumbar (6/25) revealed some common lower back issues, but nothing affecting the nerves that may be the cause of my symptoms. MRI Cervical (7/12) completed but yet to be analyzed. As of today, July 12, I?m feeling much improved over how I felt in early June. I can walk a short distance of ? mile without needing a break. I have lost muscle tone and need to work on getting my strength back. My right arm has minimal pain but will flareup with heavy computer usage. However, for the past 2 weeks, my left arm (which has been symptom free since April) now has a similar burning pain that starts at the funnybone of the elbow and runs up to my wrist. The pain comes and goes but is sometimes very intense and can be debilitating. It is hard for me to open some doors with this hand or even hold a heavy cup of water. As a previously healthy person, and having done exhaustive testing, myself and my PCP believe I had a rare and negative reaction to the vaccine.

A small rash approximately 2 cm in diameter appeared on my right anterior thigh about 4 inches above the knee. It started off red and mildly itchy with significant warmth compared to the surrounding area. A day or two later a similar rash appeared on my left wrist and posterior forearm that presented as raised bumps but was similarly itchy. Another day later a similar rash appeared on my right posterior forearm. I then decided to contact a telehealth provider who reviewed via video and decided to prescribe over-the-counter anti-histamine (zyrtec) and a topical ointment of mupirocin. I continued to take the zyrtec and applied the ointment but over the last several days the rash on my leg has increased in size to 20cm x 15 cm with noticeable swelling, itchiness and mild aching pain. Another noteworthy symptom is the area of the original rash on my thigh deepened in color and is now scaly and less itchy.

Pt first began to notice left leg "stiffness" after receiving his first COVID vaccine (Phizer) several weeks ago. Pt states that after receiving his 2nd dose on 05/06, he noticed his leg stiffness got significantly worse. He tells me that he tried to "push through the pain" and mow his lawn but had to stop d/t severe cramping of the LLE and pelvis. He states he rested his leg and went to bed, and when he woke up he noticed that his left leg was severely swollen. Pt decided to take 3 days off work to continue to rest the leg, but ultimately came in for evaluation at the suggestion of his coworkers. Pt denies fever, chills, chest pain, or SOB. He denies history of smoking, prior clotting, long car travel, air travel, leg injury, or recent surgery. On exam, the left lower extremity is significantly swollen, erythematous, and hot to the touch. Physical exam otherwise unremarkable. Will admit to the hospitalist service for further medical management. ED Course: Hypertensive with BP 170/93. Initial workup significant for WBC 13, K 3.3, glucose 159.

Most, if not all, of my pain from my lower back surgery was gone. 1 week after the shot I started having pain in my left sciatic nerve again. It isn't as bad as it was but definitely painful. The upper back pain has came back and isn't terrible painful but is uncomfortable. Pain in most of my joints: knees, elbow, fingers... Most noticeable in my knees. (I weigh 150 pounds). I have been tired a lot. I did not have any issues with the bells palsy in my face. I received allergy shots for years and stopped getting them when I had surgery. After the surgery, I started getting the allergy shots again, it made me swell and my back pains were increased because of it. So I stopped getting them. So the issue may be that the COVID shot is making me swell.

I had an acute anaphylactic reaction to a yellow jacket sting. Within 20 minutes of the sting, my whole body was swollen and airways began to constrict. I received epinephrine, type 1 and 2 antihistamines, and steroids, and the symptoms resolved. I am reporting this because I was stung by a yellow jacket in the same location a year earlier (pre-vaccine) and had no reaction. I had never had an anaphylactic reaction. Clearly, other factors could have caused the new response to what appears to be the same stimulus, but receiving an MRNA vaccine designed to stimulate immune response seems like a suspect worth investigating.

Slow swelling of lymph nodes in neck following by sinus congestion, headaches, and TMJ. Ears became full with fluid and pressure then extreme tinnitus developed. My regular doctor prescribed 2 different antibiotics which had zero effect on tinnitus. It is almost 12 weeks after the tinnitus began and I still have ringing in the ears. It has reduced to 50% over the 3 months. I have never experienced this symptom previously and it has become the worst health event in my life. I have not been exposed to any loud sounds. I have been to see 2 ENTs and they believe the condition is permanent. I had a CT scan completed and it shows there are no issues. I am hoping it is inflammation and will go away over time. I am currently taking Prednisone and hoping it reduces any possible inflammation. The ringing and popping noises in my ears need to stop ASAP.

Shingles. I received the second dose of covid vaccine on Wed, April 28. Three days later, Saturday May 1, I woke up with intense abdominal pain, spanning the entirety of my stomach, and wrapping around my right oblique and kidney area. I had thrown out my back one week prior, assumed this was more muscle pain, and treated it as such. The Monday following, May 3, I went to the chiropractor, still in intense pain, but also with a tingling sensation on the affected area, sensitivity to the touch without pain. I assumed that I had burned myself with the heating pad. Wednesday a rash began to form in the affected area. My pain was nearly gone, I no longer felt muscle tightness, and assumed that the condition was resolving itself, and that the rash was heat rash from the heating pad. Friday the rash was redder and my abdomen showed signs of significant swelling. I still thought this was muscular, that perhaps I had pulled the abdomen, treated with ice and decided to visit Orthopedic urgent care Saturday. Saturday the pain had increased. I went to Urgent care, and was told I have shingles. I asked if the covid vaccine could have caused shingles to flare, was told "theoretically", but thar we do not really know enough to say whether the vaccine contributed, or whether it was coincidence. At home, I read a bit on the covid vaccine qnd shingles, saw what appeared to be anti-vaccer propaganda, but also read about this self-reporting system...so, I thought that I might as well submit my info.

A 44-year-old male patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration on 22Mar2021 at around 13:00 or 13:30 (at the age of 44 years old) (Lot Number: EP7534, unknown expiration) as 1st dose, single for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included COVID-19 in Nov2020; sneezing and runny nose both on 21Mar2021. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. The patient reported that he received his first dose of Pfizer COVID vaccine on 22Mar2021. He felt fine after receiving the vaccine, but there was little bit rash on arms just afterwards and felt maybe a little restless but felt fine and went for a walk on 22Mar2021. As the night went on, he really noticed how sore his arm was/pain in his arm and when he was sleeping, he had trouble sleeping/problems with sleep (Mar2021) and felt movements in his chest at times (Mar2021). It felt like he had COVID all over again and had chills, soreness, and his smell was kind of gone in Mar2021. He was previously feeling pretty good. He had COVID-19 in Nov2020, and his symptoms feel very similar including loss of sense of smell but no coughing. He had a fever but that has gone away in Mar2021 and he did not take aspirin or anything for it. He also had fatigue, some swollen in lymph nodes, and his heart rate accelerated in Mar2021. He had sneezing and runny nose the day prior to receiving the vaccine. The patient would like to know if his symptoms are related to the vaccine or if he possibly has COVID-19 again. His symptoms are the same as COVID as far as what he can see, and his symptoms are really high.

Right ear pain started on the Wednesday afternoon, two days after Vaccine shot. By Friday evening the ear pain was intense and it had moved below the ear to lymphnode area. Saturday, his ear was really swollen and red. He went to the Urgent Care and they prescribed an antibiotic Cephalexin thinking it could be some sort of ear infection or insect bite. Sunday morning he woke up with his face droopy. We tried to get an appt. with Urgent Care, but they sent us to the ER. The ER did a physical assessment and concluded he had an ear infection and Bells Palsy. The prescribed another antibiotic Doxycycline, an antiviral Famciclovir and a steroid of prednisone. By Monday he was extremely nauseas and had started having vertigo. We went to Urgent Care and they prescribed him Ondansetron for nausea and made the assessment that he had Shingles in his ear. We saw PCP on Wednesday and he assessed that this was a zoster ear infection causing facial paralysis and vertigo, also known as a rare condition called Ramsay Hunt Syndrome and that it was most likely attributed to his Covid vaccine shot and not to get the second vaccine shot. The Dr. took him off the antibiotics and put him on a higher dose of prednisone, a different antiviral (valacyclovir) and Meclizine for vertigo symptoms. He sent referrals for Neurology, ENT and Eye Dr. He saw the Neurologist that Friday and he concurred Ramsay Hunt Syndrome, most likley from Covid Vaccine and do not get the second vaccine shot. The neurologist referred him to Physical Therapy to treat his vestibular issues. He ordered an MRI and some blood work. We are still waiting for the results. We saw an ENT an he had him have a hearing test which showed moderate high frequency hearing loss. The ENT prescribed Gabapentin for the ear and face pain. He started to see a physical therapist this week, he had his MRI on Wednesday and we see the ENT again on Monday. He has no improvement yet, other than the nausea has subsided.

2 days after my second shot I broke out in Hives and welts down my torso, Arms, and legs. I went to urgent care and they gave me a shot of prednisone and gave me a pack of the same steroid to take over the next 6 days they also prescribed some prescription Claritin and Famotidine.. The following day 4/16/21 around 1130pm I woke up to my face being swollen as well as my tongue. I was taken to the ER where the triage unit gave me epinephrine as well as another steroid to stabilize the swelling as I was having trouble breathing. Once stabilized I was released and took 50 mg of Benadryl every 6 hours as well as the Claritin, famotidine, and the prednisone. I had hives for a few days after and followed up with my primary doctor, but as of today I feel like i am back to normal.

States he told the emergency room about the bites and bumps and that he had the Pfizer COVID Vaccine and they gave him the Ibuprofen and sent him home.

From hospital discharge summary: "45 y.o. right-hand-dominant male who presents with few hours of improving left arm heaviness/left hand cramping in the setting of getting his second Pfizer COVID-19 vaccination in his right arm 3 days ago and 3 weeks of mildly increased exercise/intermittent fasting. The patient reports getting his first Pfizer COVID-19 vaccination on April 7, 2021. Reports some mild symptoms afterwards. Around that same time, the patient reports having a checkup with his primary care doctor that was notable for a cholesterol elevation to 200. This prompted him to try and lose weight including intermittent fasting and increase in exercise, especially for exercises and cardio. The patient reports approximately 20 pound weight loss over the past 3 weeks. 3 days ago, the patient reports getting his second Pfizer COVID-19 vaccination in his right arm. Reports fever (maximum 103 Fahrenheit) and mild headache the subsequent 2 days after the vaccine. Last night, the patient went to sleep on his left side at around 8 PM. He woke up at 4 AM with significant left arm heaviness and left hand cramping. He tried to massage his hand with some slight improvement of the symptoms but otherwise the symptoms persisted. Hence, this morning, he called his PCP, who told him to come into the ER for further evaluation. Here, the patient reports improving left arm heaviness/left hand cramping. He also does report family history of heart attack and an uncle at a similar age and massive heart attack of his grandfather in their 60s. He denies fever, anorexia, unexpected weight change, headache, blurry vision, sinus pressure, cough, hemoptysis, orthopnea, PND, SOB, DOE, chest pain, pleurisy, changes in taste/smell, N/V/D, abdominal pain, flank pain, urinary sxs, genital sxs, black stools, incontinence, absence of flatus, calf pain, leg swelling, numbness/tingling, streaking redness/rash/skin changes, easy bruising. Also, deny history of HTN, DM, smoking, prior MI, prior PCI, prior CABG, prior TIA/CVA, or history of PAD. Further, denies recent trauma/fall, history of cancer, blood thinner use, recent drug use, recent travel, sick contacts, family history of connective tissue disease/congenital aortic anomaly, or family history of similar sxs. --- Hospital Course by Problem # Troponinemia (Likely myopericarditis) The patient has a family history notable for MI and CABG in relatives aged 50-70 on his mother's side. The patient notes that most of these family members were heavy smokers and drinkers, which he is not (never-smoker, rare EtOH, never illicit drugs). His symptoms are notable for L arm heaviness/cramping that began around 8pm on 4/30/21 at 9/10 severity and subsequently was 3-4/10 severity on presentation to ED and is 0-1/10 severity at time of admission to the floor; he has no associated numbness, weakness, coolness, or pallor. His symptoms are non-exertional. He denies CP, SOB, lightheadedness, nausea, jaw pain, abdominal pain, fatigue. He noes that he recently got the second COVID shot in the R arm, and had a post-vaccine course notable for Tmax 103 ~3d ago and 101 as recently as yesterday. His EKG was notable for ST-elevation in II/III/aVF and his troponins were elevated 305 -- > 298 -- > 328. Of note, his CRP was elevated at 69. The patients symptoms and findings could certainly be compatible with atypical ACS and, given the low risk of bleeding associated with heparin, he was treated conservatively upon admission with heparin infusion, metoprolol tartrate 6.25mg q6h, atorvastatin 80mg (he received ASA 325mg in the ED). However, given his recent covid vaccination and elevated CRP and reported fevers, this could also be compatible with myocarditis or other inflammatory etiology. TTE on 5/3 demonstrated preserved EF 55% with no WMA. Given reassuring TTE, a cMRI was ordered to assess for myocarditis vs scar tissue from recent ischemic event. Cardiac MRI on 5/5 was notable for finding consistent with myopericarditis (see below). Aspirin and atorvastatin was stopped on discharge. Patient was discharged with metoprolol 25 mg daily."

On April 7, I received the first Pfizer vaccine, on April 9 my left knee started to hurt, on April 10 I had to go to an urgent care because my left knee hurt and I was limping, on April 11 In April I went to the emergency room because I had a very strong pain in both legs, I could not walk and a severe headache, I also had a fever. On Monday the 11th they operated on my left knee because there was a lot of inflammation, that same day the second knee became inflamed, I was hospitalized from April 11 to 17 with a lot of pain in both legs. On April 21 I continued with a lot of pain and swelling in both legs and even in the ankles there was swelling. A rheumatologist doctor, because of the laboratory tests she conducted, did come to the conclusion that it was reactive arthritis caused by the Pfizer vaccine. Today June 1, 2021, I still have pain in both knees and ankles, especially the right one, both knees and the right ankle are a little swollen, until May 24 I walked with a walker and I did it with too much pain.

Lymph node swelling. It started on his left side then it spread all over; Nausea; Fever; Lymphedema in some areas; believes the vaccine went into his lymph node/lymph system instead of the muscle tissue in his arm; ER doctor believed the caller had a hernia due to the swelling in the lower abdomen; ER doctor believed the caller had a hernia due to the swelling in the lower abdomen; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer, the patient. A 45-years-old male patient received second dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Solution for injection, Batch/Lot Number: EW0182; Expiration Date: Aug2021, NDC number: unknown) via an unspecified route of administration, administered in left arm on 19May2021 at 13:00 as 2ND DOSE, SINGLE DOSE for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included sinus infection in 2011 (for which he visited a doctor 10 years ago to get an antibiotic). Other than that, he was healthy. Patient had no family history. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. Patient previously took first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Solution for injection, Batch/Lot Number: ER8735; Expiration Date: 31Jul2021) via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 28Apr2021 13:00 as 1ST DOSE, SINGLE DOSE for COVID-19 immunization. Patient had no problems after first dose. The patient did not receive any other vaccines within 4 weeks prior to the COVID vaccine. 6 hours after vaccine, the left side blew up. About 12 hours after the second shot in the middle of the night, patient had the initial reaction and pretty normal side effects (little nausea and fever). Patient had a lymph node inflammation/swelling, which was severe on his left side including his arm pit, down his side, even down into his groin. The reaction died down after about 2 days but spread to rest of the body. On 28May2021, Friday of last week (about 10 days later), everything just blew up. Every one of his lymph nodes went crazy. So many were down in his groin area, the lymph nodes blew up so badly. It was putting enough pressure in that region, it was cutting off circulation to his manhood. Patient had to go to the hospital around 1:00AM. Patient was diagnosed finally at 04:56 and clarified it to be an emergency room visit. Patient was seen in the ER for about 3-4 hours. He was never actually admitted into the hospital. ER doctor believed that patient had a hernia due to the swelling in the lower abdomen. Patient did not know all the tests that were done in the ER. When patient mentioned the swelling that cut off the circulation to manhood, the ER doctor had them ultrasound his manhood, but the doctor never actually listened to the patient. The doctor basically did not want to hear that there were any problems with the vaccine. Patient felt that administration led to lymph node reaction. Instead of sitting in arm for a couple of days or going into a fatty or muscle tissue, vaccine went into the lymph system and now his lymph system was going crazy. He believed this one time when the person jabbed the COVID vaccine in and squeezed the plunger, it put the product right into a lymph node and all of it right into the lymph system. Patient never had a lymph node problem. Patient still had severe lymph node problems. Patient was getting lymphedema in some areas. The only reaction that was abnormal was the extreme lymph node swelling. Outcome of the events was unknown. Investigation Assessment: Yes

Over the next hour, it traveled superiorly up to his left cheek and to the inferior ear. He had a steroid and antihistamine sent in to the pharmacy and took this once he got home about 1930. Shortly thereafter, he started developing tongue numbness. He woke up in the middle of the night to use the restroom and reports he nearly fell into the bathroom wall due to the intensity of vertigo he was experiencing. The vertigo worsened throughout the day and he is very unsteady on his feet, requiring assistance and support from his wife to ambulate.

Possible symptom 1: Within approximately a day or two of the shot, I developed a severe and persistent lower abdominal/groin pain. The pain was very pin point in location and lasted for approximately 10 days before easing up. Very small isolated pain severe enough to go to the DR, but I could not afford to on account of my wife having severe unknown abdominal pain and being in the ER and DR multiple times herself (she got the same vaccine an hour before me?). Possible symptom 2: 4-5 days after the shot I developed an isolated and severe pain in a preexisting nodule/mass (lymph node?) located on my mid right thigh, it has never had any sensation before. The pain was persistently severe for approximately 7 days before easing up.

Woke up at 3/29/2021 with severe itching, flat reddened patches on arms, chest, back and legs. I also had and raised reddened (pea to dime sized) hives on my arms, legs and chest. I thought that it was an allergic reaction to several insect bites from being outdors Sunday evening for about an hour. Allegra and Zyrtec didn't help the itching very much, so I've been taking Allegra every 10 hours and Benadryl every 6 hours for the past 48 hours. When the Benadryl wears off the hives return become raised, red and very itchy. I didn't think that it could be from the vaccine because I didn't really have any issues other than local swelling and itching at the ilocal area of the vaccine njection site. I've also been treating the hives with topical Hydrocortisone cream and Benadryl cream.

47 year old Gynecologist with PMH of severe MDD, GERD, asthma, referred to the ED by his PCP, after 5 days of gait instability, and about 4 weeks of altered mental status, confusion, short term memory deficits and malaise. ADEM suspected and extensive infectious, inflammatory and neoplastic workup was initiated. CT brain - reported NAD MRI brain consistent with Acute Diffused Encephalomyelitis and suspected ADEM. MRI cervical spine with evidence of demyelination involving posterior cord. ICU course complicated by new onset of aphasia, partial left frontotemporal seizures, LGIB due to proximal rectal laceration and central diabetes insipidus. Admitted 3/15/21. On 3/17 he developed aphasia with right sided facial droop and stroke alert was called. Later on 3/17 he developed GI bleeding and was taken for emergent colonoscopy, from which no significant conclusions could be made due to lack of preparation and subsequent poor visualization. No foreign body was reported. After he continued to have ongoing bleeding, the patient had a sigmoidoscopy, during which the migrated clip could be removed and two new hemostatic clips were placed. He subsequently developed large volume urine output and nephrology was consulted; the patient was diagnosed with likely diabetes insipidus. On 3/20 acyclovir was discontinued after HSV PCR was negative. High dose solumedrol for ADEM completed 5 day course 3/21. VDRL was non reactive. There were no oligoclonal bands. Solumedrol 1g daily was started 3/24/21: MRI showed L>R patchy enhancement and diffusion abnormalities consistent with ADEM. Repeat MRI showed new restricted diffusion of the left superior cortex, bilateral medial temporal lobes and hippocampi, genu of the corpus collosum, and pericallosal white matter, with ddx including status epilepticus, autoimmune encephalitis and infectious encephalitis including herpes simplex. Completed 5 day course of high dose steroids, 6 days of IVIG and on ongoing PLEX. Neurological improvement noted 3/25

At Midnight I was going to sleep, I was sweating profusely and could not feel my pulse. When I asked my wife to call 911, I went into the bathroom to change into clothes to get ready to go. I do not remember going to get dressed, I passed out and 911 had arrived and they believed I was in cardiac arrest. I went to the ER, there was a right artery blockage and put in a stint. They also found out I had 8 facial facial fractures due to the fall I had. I was all swelled up in my face so in May I went back for surgery on my face to fix the multiple facial fractures. And now I am back to normal, except I am on blood thinners. The DR could not find anything wrong after follow up, so no one knows why the cardiac happens.

Few days after that I developed numbness and weakness on my left side and pins and needles in my Left index finger. I saw my primary care doctor twice that week. He started me on low dose Prednisone and gabapentin for the pain while sleeping. When the nerve pain/numbness did not subside, I asked for a neurology referral. Two doctors saw me for brachial plexus neuritis. I have had 2 ultrasound guided and one fluoro guided cortisone shots along the nerve. I have also been going to PT 2-3 x/week to regain my strength on the Left side & calm nerve.

May 7 marked 2 weeks since vaccination dose 1. Please note, patient was diagnosed as Covid-19 positive on Dec. 27 or 28th, 2020, but had a nearly symptom-free run of the disease (slight and short-lived cough, some joint pain 1 day, no fever, no other symptoms).

Strong shoulder pain started on Sat 4/17 in the early morning that woke me up. Went away by 10a after taking tylenol and having a coffee. Sun 4/18: pain again woke me up and was more severe. Had to get out of bed to move around as pain was pretty bad. Went to urgent care. Found nothing serious (not a heart attack or clots, etc). Referred me to go see my PCP if it did not resolve in a few days. Thu 4/22: went to PCP. Pain had subsided for the most part, but started having reduced range of motion when lifting arm straight forward...could not get past 90 degrees (straight out) without pain and a feeling of physical binding in the joint. Suspected bursitis. Prescribed a steroid pack and muscle relaxer. Sat: 4/24: my son noticed my shoulder blade sticking out when attempting to reach for a glass of water while seated. Decided to make appt with an orthopedic. Fri 4/30: went to orthopedic. Took xray. Found no physical damage, trauma, etc. Noticed winged scapula as reason for lack of range of motion. Prescribed physical therapy. Fir 5/14: still same lack of range of motion and no pain. Went to first PT appt. They took range of motion measurements and agreed I was limited. Tested for other pain or signs of trauma and found none. Prescribed a PT regimen. After my own research combined with symptoms, and no physical trauma as the source. My suspicion is Parsonage Turner Syndrome brought on by the vaccination.

Started experiencing some dizziness on March 8th that lasted for approximately 3 weeks. Did get the second dose of the Pfizer vaccine and a week later felt a sort of hot feeling in my head similar to that ballon sensation when first coming down with the flu but nowhere near as intense. The dizziness was worst on March 10th then slowly resolved itself over the next few weeks. It was mild to moderate in intensity, I could feel a continuation of movement after turning my head sideways, it felt like the head was still going. Strange. I was still able to go to work but the effect was noticable. The only variables in my life recently were beginning Humira on Feb 2nd 2021 and getting the series of Pfizer Covid vaccines on Feb 19 and March 12. I did notify my gasteroenterologist because at first I assumed it was the Humira. He said that is not a side effect. On further research I have seen a lot of people reporting vertigo several weeks out after the Covid shots as if the antibody formation produces and inflammatory response in the ear in some patients. Unknown the symptoms are related to the shot or not. I had one outbreak of Meniere's Disease in 2006 and has not recurred. Perhaps the vaccine can cause a recurrance?

No immediate reaction but 5 days later (April 1) lymph nodes on neck were painful but went away after a day. But nausea and loss of appetite which started 5 days later on April 1 still remain as of today 4/7. It doesn't prevent me from eating or any other problems just definitely not myself. What's even more strange is my desire to drink 7up because of feeling sick. Haven't drank this stuff in over 30 years.

Injection site pain started a few hours after 1st dose COVID vaccine and hasn't fully resolved five weeks later. Range of motion is fine. Second dose was given slightly lower and with deltoid pulled out slightly by the vaccinator and wasn't painful. I saw my sports medicine doc yesterday (2/12/21) for routine follow-up to a right rotator cuff tear and had her examine my left shoulder as well. She says her exam of the L shoulder is consistent with bursitis and the history and exam suggest the 1st dose of the COVID vaccine was a bit too deep and at least some of the vaccine got into the bursa. I'm a physician working in public health with occupational exposures to COVID, so I'm concerned whether or not the vaccine will be effective if the first dose was injected deep to the deltoid.

Shortly after receiving the injection my arm went ice cold all the way to my fingers and warmed up again quickly. On the way home (about an hour later) I noticed numbness and tingling in my hand and that has continued since (11 days as of this report). My upper arm muscle was sore later that evening and by the next day the pain in my upper arm was extreme. I couldn't move my arm without extreme pain. I took some tylenol late in the day and that did help cut down on some of the pain. I also put an ice pack on my upper arm but it didn't help. The pain wasn't as bad the next (3rd) day but it's still significant enough for me to restrict activity with it. There is also a burning sensation off and on as well as itching deep in my arm. My upper arm has also felt like there is a tight band around it (since day 2) although the muscles themselves don't feel like there's any tightness or knots. I took ibuprofen on day 10 and it helped a little but not a whole lot. At this point I also have what feels like swelling or tenderness under my arm near the armpit area. The pain, burning and itching in my upper arm continues as well as the numbness, tingling and pins all up and down my arm to my hand and fingers.

Within 24 hours I developed chest pain about 2 inches to left of sternum. Within another 24 hours the pain shifted another 2 inches towards my left armpit. Pain can be slight to intense at times requiring me to sit down. Within 24 hours I developed a painful bump in the trapezoid about halfway between neck and shoulder. The bump has gone down now (day 10) but the pain continues. It?s relatively constant throughout the day but gets severe enough towards the evening to stop or minimize the use of my left arm. It seems to be activity related. The more I need to do that day, the worse it is in the evening. Pain in left arm has been as expected but continues at day 10. It is slowly subsiding and is minimal compared to the other two pain locations.

Patient is a 51-year-old male with a PMHx significant for hemochromatosis, sarcoidosis and morbid obesity who initially presented to the ED for evaluation of chest pain, cough and shortness of breath. On presentation, vitals were mostly unremarkable other than some mild tachycardia and tachypnea. Patient was able to maintain adequate oxygenation on room air but was placed on supplemental oxygen for comfort. Blood work was mostly unremarkable. ABG was not particularly concerning. Troponin was negative x3. Patient underwent chest CTA which showed basilar atelectasis bilaterally and scattered groundglass opacities and scattered borderline size hilar and mediastinal lymph nodes consistent with patient's known sarcoidosis. Patient was treated with supportive care and monitored overnight. He was able to maintain sufficient oxygen levels. On the time my evaluation, patient continues to complain of bilateral rib pain worse with deep breaths consistent with costochondritis. I discussed with the patient that he will need to continue to take NSAIDs on a scheduled basis to help with his discomfort. Additionally I offered to prescribe cough medicine. I discussed possibly discharging the patient on steroids however he states that he makes a point to avoid taking steroids due to his history of hemochromatosis. At this point, patient no longer requires care in the hospital and can be discharged home. Patient is agreeable with the plan and all questions have been answered appropriately.

4/14/2021 I received 2nd Pfizer at 8 am, but around 10 am I started to feel my left leg tighten up. In two days I could not walk. They tried to give me muscle relaxants and pain meds. But It did not cure anything. I have had a low-grade temperature(usually exactly 99.5 but sometimes higher ) for 38 days and does not go away. I felt inflammation and at the hospital, they did a C-Reactive Protein (CRP) and it showed 144 mg/L. I entered the hospital from 5/21/2021 till 5/25/2021. They ran many tests but found no infections. They did possibly find some preexisting condition that I might have had all along. The only problem I have is I was completely healthy per se (even with the preexisting condition that I didn?t know about) right before the vaccine I was able to exercise, able to lift weights, good energy level, and eating properly. I feel like the vaccine is still somehow working in my body even that is not supposed to be the case. I feel like my body is still in a state of hyper inflammation and it killing me.

A 52-year-old male patient received the second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number: EW0164), at the age of 51 years old, in right arm at single dose on 23Apr2021 16:30 for covid-19 immunization. Medical history included sleep apnea, congestive heart failure, high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes, seasonal allergy and covid-19 in May2020. The patient reported he had symptoms of the covid-19 virus in May2020. He had a positive covid-19 virus test and did quarantine. The patient reported he's never been allergic to any kind of medication. Concomitant medications included atenolol 50-25 mg at one tablet a day. The patient didn't know the name of the other medication combined with the atenolol. The patient reported one was for the heart and one was for the blood. He also took medication for seasonal allergies but declined to provide the name. The patient previously received a flu vaccine (NDC/Lot/Expiry: unknown) on 2020 that made him feel bad with a head cold. The patient previously received the first dose of BNT162B2 (lot number: EP7534), at the age of 51 years old, in right arm at single dose on 02Apr2021 16:30 for covid-19 immunization. The patient started having some problems maybe a week after that. He started feeling like the nerves in his right arm were jumping. Like his right arm was agitated. His finger on his right hand were swollen. The patient did get his vaccine in the right arm. He thought his arm was going to bother him after he got the vaccine. The nerves in his right wrist are bothering him. Like he felt the nerves moving up and down and his arms, like he had no control of his arm. His right hand blew up with inflammation. His right hand looked like it was going to explode. His right hand won't relax. On 01May2021 was when he noticed his arm acting funny. He would say that the swelling had gone down from taking the antibiotics but his right arm was still very uncomfortable and he couldn't bend the fingers on his right hand and he couldn't make a fist with his right hand. His right wrist felt like needle and pins. The patient went to the emergency room at a hospital two nights in a row on 04May2021 and 05May2021. The first time he had x-rays done. The second time he had x-rays and a sonogram of his right arm to check for blood clots and he had some blood work done. All of that came back negative. The emergency room doctor asked him what arm did receive BNT162B2 in, he told the doctor his right arm, the doctor told him he's having an allergic reaction to BNT162B2. The emergency room doctor prescribed him an antibiotic to take. He'd already finished the antibiotic and didn't recall the name, the bottle had been thrown away. The patient followed up with his primary care doctor on 13May2021 and was given a prescription for a muscle relaxer and motrin 600 mg to help bring the swelling and pain down in his hand. In the emergency department he had a right arm and right wrist x-ray. The doctor was trying to figure out why his right hand looked like a balloon. The only conclusion the emergency room doctor came up with was that he was having a reaction to BNT162B2. The outcome of events nerve in wrist bothering, felt nerve moving, feeling nerves jumping, right arm agitated, no control of arm, right hand won't relax and couldn't bend fingers was not recovered. The outcome of events hand blew up with inflammation, fingers on right hand swollen, right hand explode and pain in hand was recovering. The outcome of events wrist felt like needles and pins and allergic reaction to vaccine was unknown. No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information is expected.

Medical history included flu, has gotten the flu before but has never gone on this long. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. Clinical course as reported: He is a practicing physician who has been providing vaccinations to patients all of his life. He ended up with severe right deltoid pain. It is usually not a problem, he has dealt with this with other shots. By the second or third day, it was very tender and swollen and had axillary lymphadenopathy on the same side he re-ceived the vaccination. It persisted the next day until day 5 or 6. He then started to get worried. He went to the hospital. They did a CT scan which noted there was notable lymphadenopathy. They thought it was a reaction to the Covid vaccination. 2 days later, he went home and he kept taking Motrin and Tylenol on board. Lymphadenopathy was evident in the left axilla, inguinal nodes, and is still there now. On day 7, he went into full blown flu syndrome, had a headache, body aches and flu like chills, the whole thing. Is still a little bit rhinitic and is very congested, and is draining like a faucet. It has all been happening since he got vaccinated. He was told he was either exposed to covid or it is from the vaccination. He went to urgent care yesterday (20May2021) and they did a Covid test which was negative. He hates to point fingers but this fatigue has been overwhelming and is never ending. He called withheld where he got the vaccination. He said the pharmacist has been hearing this from a lot of patients. He reported for 7 days straight the clinical events as they were happening. Nobody has contacted him, they said some-one would be contacting him the next day and he has not heard from anyone. This laid him up for 5 days. The last 4 days, he had severe pain in the left foot, and the right hand. It was out of the blue like someone whacked him with a hammer. He couldn't even walk, it was completely painful. He hasn't worked out since he got the damn shot. In 15 days, he has not gone to the gym. They did an X-ray which didn't say anything. He was in immense pain. They gave him prescription for Prednisone 50mg and he hasn't been able to get to the pharmacy to get it yet but will head over shortly. Has been taking Motrin and Tylenol around the clock. Has been taking antihistamines because his nose has been running like a faucet non stop and he has a sore throat. Sore throat has gotten better in the last 5 days. The pain was really bad. The sore throat has subsided. The nasal drain-age and his eyes are watery are still there. Has been fatigued and his body aches and he is exhausted. The second vaccination is due 25May2021 and he is absolutely not getting the second one. When having other viral syndromes, he has never felt this sick. Has gotten the flu before but has never gone on this long. He is just feeling like crap. Can barely even get out of bed every morning. It is unbelievable. He hasn't had any true positive exposure. Has not been exposed to other family members with Covid/ coronavirus. Have practices strict isolation in their home. They have 5 kids and they did not go near anyone or go to any public places. For this to happen, it has to be because of the vaccine. Nothing else could have caused this. No one else around him has been sick. Is not sure if they are getting a lot of reports. When going on line to the Pfizer vaccine reporting, it took him a while to get a number to contact Pfizer directly. He called (Withheld) and they gave him 2 wrong numbers. It took 4 people to get the number to report this to Pfizer. He thinks there is a lot of under reporting. If he has a deductible, he would like Pfizer to take care of the cost for his ER visit.

Fatigue set in just after flu symptoms, have never recovered. In June, I started having pain in my upper maxillary. Saw my dentist, who sent me to a dental surgeon.

Expected symptoms ended within about 24 hours from the shot. But 48 hours after the shot there was massive nerve pain in the (left) shoulder of the shot, the pain radiated throughout deltoid, chest, shoulder, neck on the left side. This nerve pain lasted for about 36 hours and then dissipated (I know it was nerve pain because years ago i experienced something similar in the other shoulder for unrelated reasons). But the shoulder was very sore and weak for 2 full weeks, during which i saw an orthopedist who diagnosed bursitis caused by SIRVA. For weeks afterwards the shoulder felt like it returned to normal . However in the first 2 weeks of June my whole left arm began getting sore and tired. In midjune i noticed that my shoulder was atrophying and the front deltoid was not activating (my biceps was doing all the work). Orthopedist ordered an EMG (June 29), which confirmed axillary nerve damage to anterior deltoid. I?ve been doing physical therapy since mid June and as of today July 25th it is beginning to recover but it could take months to a year and may never fully recover.

A 52-years-old male patient received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTEC COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE, Solution for injection, lot number: EW0173 and expiry date was not reported), via an unspecified route of administration, in Arm Left, on 08May2021 at 02:38 PM, as a single dose for COVID-19 immunization. The patient did not receive any other vaccine in four weeks. The patient's medical history included Bug bite (happened 5 days prior to 30Apr2021 and regimen of an antibiotic). He was completely done with the rotation for a least 8 days before he got the vaccine. It might have something to do with this. concomitant medication included dicloxacillin (started it on 30Apr2021 and it was for 5 days. He did not know what it did was). The patient reported that on 08May2021, day one, he experienced, tiredness and injection site pain. On day 2, until now side effects which had not gone away. It hadn't gotten worse, but it was not any better. The patient felt like congestion, but his nose was bone dry, like crusty dry. It hurts a little bit because it was so dry and he had arm soreness, nothing out of the ordinary. The arm soreness was just normal injection stuff. At first it was a little tender on the injection spot. It went away after about a day. On 10May2021, the patient felt like there were little, tiny baby hands pinching his internal organs randomly throughout his abdomen. It was not a sharp pain, more like a little squeeze all through his abdomen. It felt like his whole throat was swollen. It was not visually swollen, it more felt like a football in his neck. Stretching it was helping. His toes have been locking up like a pre-clamping. He had numbness from his ankles to his feet for 8 days, and now he has numbness from his knees to his feet. It was not completely numb, but it was not normal. The feeling of baby hands pinching his internal organs started the second day after the vaccine and has stayed consistent. The patient's eyes swollen, and his vision was diminished. Day 2 through today, it felt like his eyes were swollen, his vision was seriously diminished, he had a golf ball sized welt on his arm not at the injection site but 2 inches from it, and he was really dizzy and really lightheaded and almost fainted at the corner store. The feeling like his eyes were swollen started on day 3 after the vaccine. The crease of his eye be-low the eyebrow and on top of the socket got red and puffy and looked like sunburnt skin does. It was at the point that now it feels swollen all the time almost like he had pink eye and his vision has been diminished about 30%. He had a test done yesterday and his vision was 20/25. Some-times he could not even read a text and had to stare at his phone for 10 minutes to make out words. He did not have these issues before. The feeling of his eyes being swollen was a little better in the mornings and about 1300 it gets worse when he gets lightheaded to where was when it started. His vision became diminished about day 3 after the vaccine. It was a little better in the morning, but in the afternoon, it goes to exactly the same as when it started. He noticed the golf ball sized welt on his arm about 3 days ago. The doctor seemed to think a drop of the injection might had travelled from the injection site and his body was creating a defense to it. It was scary to take a shower and then see that. It didn't hurt. It was not painful, but it was a weird foreign entity. The cramping in his toes started probably day 3 and was consistent. The numbness started on day 2 after the vaccine, and up until 3 days ago it was just his ankles and feet. 3 days ago, it got to the point where it was from his knees to his feet. It has gotten worse since it was now travelling up his legs. On his injection arm- 2 inches away from the injection site appeared a size of a gigantic golf ball - when asked with his doctor he said that he thinks that a drop of the vaccine travelled and his body building a reaction to it and it was very abnormal. The patient also had numbness from his ankle to his feet worsened and from his knees to his feet- almost feels like it was cold and tingly. The patient also had dizziness and lightheaded about day 2 after the vaccine and it was the same. It came in waves but was consistent throughout the day. He would be fine then had a wave of dizziness. He has been laying down so much because he was so tired, ringing ears, felt like his glands were swollen, pressure in his neck to his injection site, and back pains. The patient stated that his doctor was only form urgent care. The patient Felt like whole throat was swollen, toes locking up, really lightheaded, mind has been foggy, and arm soreness. The patient had bizarre side effects from the Covid Vaccine for 11 days now. He thought it was the smart thing to report them to Pfizer. He didn't like to give personal information. He declined to give his mailing address or his email address. He hated when asked for race, but he guessed it might be important. He did not have a mailing address, phone number, or email address handy for his physician. He went to Urgent Care yesterday to have it checked and they did an EKG and said he had to be sent by ambulance to the ER. The doctor did bloodwork, and she said everything looked alright and to rest a few more days and keep hydrated. The patient underwent the lab work and procedures which included chest X-ray with unspecified result. He thinks it was on 18May2021. His mind has been foggy with all of that. It was yesterday or the day before. He could not be sure. He has been sleeping so much and was in a complete daze. The fogginess he had the whole time as his other symptoms, and it was the same. He has been eating well and hydrating and taking a multivitamin and Gatorade, all the things' people say to do. He asked if Pfizer has heard of this before. He was panicked it might be chronic, and he worries about the safety of the second shot for him. He was sure many people haven't reacted, but these are freaky side effects. He asked for advice and if Pfizer had heard of this before or if he was some weird anomaly. On his way to get the vaccine he asked 2 people at the city health line if they had taken it and they both said no. He asked 3 other patients and they said they took the Pfizer. One woman said she will take it when they make her. The guy who gave him the shot lied and said he wasn't eligible. It might have been his way of not having to discuss it. The events resulted in doctor or other healthcare professional office/clinic visit, Emergency room/department or urgent care. The patient was not diagnosed with Covid prior vaccination. The patient was tested for Covid post vaccination with Nasal Swab on 18May2021. The outcome of the events was not recovered. Device Date: 23May2021,Additional information has been requested.

It appears that I obtained gout as a result of the vaccination I received on May 2nd, 2021. I have no prior history of gout. Several hours after my vaccination my big toe on my left foot began to hurt. By Monday morning, May 3rd 2021, my big toe and the area surrounding it had swollen and was very painful, making it difficult to walk. I began putting my foot in cold water as well as hot water with epsom salt.to reduce the swelling and get rid of the pain. On Tuesday morning, May 4th, 2021, my toe felt better was still painful to walk and put pressure on it. There is still swelling on my foot in the area around my big toe as well. In googling my issue and feeling that this could only be due to receiving the Covid-19 vaccine, I decided to contact a podiatrist. I scheduled an appointment to see Dr. on Thursday, May 6th 2021 @ 11:30 a.m.

Pain like arthritis in left arm, mainly in left forearm but the whole arm just feels weaker, especially when grabbing and lifting things. Does not seem to be getting any better and not sure if it is getting worse started a week or so after last shot and has been consistent for the past month. Plus I have had two episodes of cold sores on my lips within a month which is very unusual because I haven't had a cold sore in more than 5 years before I had this vaccine, so I was thinking my immune system might be weaker or something because of the vaccine allowing the cold sore virus to appear twice on my lips within a month. Hopefully my arm gets better and I quit getting cold sores ASAP.

This is a spontaneous report received from a contactable consumer (patient). A 54-year-old male patient (height: 193cm, weight: 99.79kg) received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, batch/lot number: EN6207) via an unspecified route of administration at right upper arm on 18Mar2021 18:00 (54-year-old at time of vaccination), at single dose, for COVID-19 immunization. The patient's medical history included blood pressure, teeth cleaned (Shortly before the shot, went to the dentist to have teeth cleaned. Directly from Dentist went to pharmacy. Went to pharmacy's Drive Thru to pick up a little antibiotic from the dentist. It was 4 capsules of Amoxicillin. He was supposed to take the Amoxicillin before the dentist office visit, but he forgot to do that. Therefore, soon as he left the dentist office he went to pharmacy to pick it up so he could take it. While he was there, was offered the COVID 19 vaccine and that it was the last shot). Concomitant medications included atenolol tablet from 2016 (been taking for 5 years) and ongoing for blood pressure, and ascorbic acid/ cyanocobalamin/ ergocalciferol/ nicotinamide/ pyridoxine hydrochloride/ retinol/ riboflavin/ thiamine mononitrate (ONE-A-DAY). No additional vaccines administered on same date. No history of all previously immunizations. No prior vaccincations wtihin 4 weeks. He got the shot Thursday and by Sunday, many different side effects were coming in. He has had side effects from the COVID VACCINE, but initially he does not want to file report, just thinks that everyone needs to get the shot. He does not have complaints. He is wondering how long the side effects will last, and when they go away. States that he is being treated as he has gone to the doctor's. Also states that he made an appointment with the doctor and almost went to the emergency room a couple of times. Right after the shot, he was getting in the car and his right leg started hurting (on 18Mar2021). It didn't go away for a couple of days. It went away but then noticed his shoes started feeling funny. He wasn't looking at his feet, put his shoes on they felt tight. Then he started to look at feet more. Below his knees, his legs are swollen. Swelling started within 2 to 3 days after the vaccine. The swelling is really severe when standing. Everybody at work has seen how sick he is and his legs. Swelling in the legs has him concerned, thinking maybe it's a blood clot. He was given medicine and would like to see it go away. He keeps his legs up. He has other side effects (all in Mar2021) and is having flu like symptoms. He basically has the flu. He has never had the flu shot. This is the first flu shot (He referred to the COVID vaccine as the flu shot as documented. However, confirmed suspect product as Pfizer covid vaccine) he has had that he knows of. He is questioning if he should get the second shot. He feels a little dizzy. Quick questions get him confused and that it comes and goes. Lungs felt full, gasping for air: not now but, since the doctor gave him antibiotics (unspecified injections, he was given 2 shots at the doctor's office, one in each arm), his lungs felt full. At times he was gasping for air. It went away but thought he was going to die. Now when he gets winded, it feels like he has a dry cough. Gets winded easily. The doctor ordered him an inhaler, Symbicort, but it was very expensive, so he did not get it at that time. He never picked it up because it was too much money. The fluid is not there anymore and he does not feel like he needs this as does not feel like it needs to be cleared. He is having wheezing. He can now take deeper breaths. Fatigue: initially, that he was feeling tired within 1 or 2 days, but he did not recall the next day feeling that way (later stated it was within 2-3 days he started to feel tired). He is still tired. Unable to clarify time frame of fatigue further. He feels bloated and full. Hasn't really eaten but feels real full and bloated. Hot and cold flashes started occurring about the same time as the other symptoms. He had these last evening. He does not get the flu very often and doesn't take the Flu shot. This is the closest thing he can remember having a pretty good episode with the flu. He was also given prescriptions for 2 new medications: Triamterene 37.5mg daily, for leg swelling; Clindamycin, 300mg, twice a day, an antibiotic. The odd thing is that it seems like his eyes are big, like really, really big, like they are really open. It is like big eye balls. States that he is just sick and his body is reacting to getting better. He has not been to work in the last 3 days. States that he is fine, just worried about work. Patient asked for personal advice about going back to work. The outcome of "his right leg started hurting" was recovered; outcome of "below his knees, his legs are swollen/ swelling in the legs/ put his shoes on they felt tight" and Fatigue/feeling tired was not recovered; outcome of other events was unknown.

The next day, both my armpits swelled up profusely and itched. I had light itching on both arms and swelling again. On my back, the pain shot down my back and in my left hip. The pain was not extreme, it was just uncomfortable. This lasted a few hours and went away as usual. About 24 hours and nothing happened. Then my left hand and palm started itching lightly. My tongue and mouth began itching and swelling profusely to a point where i couldn't eat anything. The next day, my heels started itching on both feet and my toes swelled up. I saw my doctor who provided me steroids. They lasted 5 days and I had no symptoms while on the steroids. When the steroids ended, my throat started to swell and my mouth as well. It got a little difficult to breathe but by the time I got ready to go to the ER it had subsided. This was accompanied by lite swelling and itching in my left hand. The same symptoms keep occurring.

I have also been on antihistamines which seemed to help a little in conjunction with the steroids. Without the steroids, they do not help.

No immediate adverse reaction, however, began developing nightly fevers/profuse sweating on June 11. This continued for two weeks with increasing symptoms of loss of appetite, nausea, abdominal pain, tingling sensation on scalp before going to ER. Visited urgent care on June 16 and bloodwork results indicated elevated white blood cell count and eosinophil count. There was a question as to whether patient had been subjected to a tick bite, so doxycycline was prescribed. After several days, patient returned to urgent care for follow-up bloodwork (June 20th). Results showed WBC and eosinophil count continued to escalate. He went to ER on June 25th and was admitted to the hospital for 5 days. During his visit at Hospital, he was seen by a team of specialists: cardiologist, pulmonologist, hematologist, infectious disease doctor. Multiple tests were run, as the doctors started broad to eliminate certain diagnoses - i.e., bone marrow biopsy, heart cath, CT scans, x-rays, thoracentesis, etc. Patient had fluid around his heart and lungs and was diagnosed with myocarditis. He had no previous heart issues nor family history of heart issues. Test results indicated no abnormal blockage or other issues, other than inflammation and his heart strength was at 27%. I am unable to access his account, as it was disabled after his death. An autopsy is being performed and results are pending; however, the question(s) at large: what was the condition of his heart at the time of his death and was this vaccine-related? Did his myocarditis get worse? Did his heart muscle weaken further and rupture? Please let me know if the autopsy results are needed and where to send them.

Development of fever blisters (cold sores). I've had cold sore/fever blister before. For the past 30 years I would typically get ONE cold sore roughly about every 3-4 years. Typically it was an indicator I was about to experience an illness. They were VERY rare and always noted as I will not kiss my children or wife when I would get one. It would always appear in the exact same location on the upper left part of my top lip. Very minor cold sore but a cold sore none the less. My reaction to the 2nd shot was pretty strong. I had a 102F fever starting at 10PM the evening after the second vaccination. Very strong muscle contractions and joint inflammation. The fever and soreness disappeared about 36 hours later and I was fine. Fast forward a week or two (from the second shot) and I developed an unusual coldsore on my lower lip. It appeared almost immediately. I began to apply Abrevia (10% Docosanol) right away. Honestly it was a very unusual cold sore. Much larger than any cold sore I had ever had. It even caused bumps on the interior part of my lower lip. This has never happened. In the past this cold sore would be it. Then I would be free of them for an extended period. As of April 21, 2021, I've had 2 additional cold sores. This is three cold sores in a period of less then 5 weeks. My diet, exercise and lifestyle have not really changed. This is VERY odd.

On an unreported date, the patient had worsening MR (mitral regurgitation) (mitral valve incompetence, medically significant), steroid induced diabetes (steroid diabetes, medically significant), lower extremity edema, 2+ pitting edema, to knees 1+ dependent edema at thighs (oedema peripheral), weight slowly coming down, weight up 4 lbs (weight fluctuation), rash (rash), diarrhea (diarrhoea), and leg healing (limb discomfort). On 16Apr2021, 1 year 8 months 16 days after initiating PO Orenitram, the patient was hospitalised due to acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) from COVID (previously reported COVID-19 pneumonia) and for AHRF secondary to influenza B exacerbating PAH, then transferred to the other hospital with volume overload and diuresis. The patient was presented with volume overload and needed oxygen requirement (none needed at home prior to both hospitalizations). The patient's breathing and oxygen were improved with diuresis. Patient's pulmonary hypertension was treated with steroids as though to be flare due to lupus. Patient was given intravenous (IV) solumedrol (25 mg in AM and 16 mg in PM) as per the discussion with rheumatology and pulmonary hypertension cardiology with improvement in oxygen status. On 24Apr2021, the patient relevant diagnostic and laboratory test included: complete blood count (CBC) WBC (white blood count) 4.79, RBC (Red blood cell count) 3.31, Hgb (hemoglobin) 8.4, Plt (Platelet count) 146. Comprehensive metabolic panel (CMP) Na (sodium) 141, K (potassium) 4.1, Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) 39, Creatinine 1.68, glucose 90. On 25Apr2021, the patient had relevant diagnostic and laboratory test included WBC 5.51, RBC 3.24, Hgb 8.2, Plt 159. Na 141, K 4.4, BUN 39, Creatinine 1.59, glucose 117. On 26Apr2021, the patient had relevant diagnostic and laboratory test included WBC 5.41, RBC 3.30, hgb 8.3, Plt 159. Na 141, K 4.4, BUN 37, creatinine 1.54, and glucose 90. The patient was discharged on 26Apr2021. Patient's physical exam at the time of discharge showed pulse 65 bpm, respiratory rate 18 per minute, blood pressure (BP) 138/78 mmHg, temperature 36.5 °C and weight was 90.9 kg. The patient was breathing comfortably in no distress on 2 Litre nasal cannula (NC). Minimal crackles appreciated in the morning posteriorly. The patient had 2+ pitting edema, to knees 1+ dependent edema at thighs and edema unchanged but overall leg size decreased. Continues to be pitting but improved on the day of discharge. Patient's discharge diagnosis pulmonary hypertension exacerbation. Patient's diuretics were increased from 40 mg daily to 60 mg daily and may needed more diuretics. Discharge medications included: Protonix (pantoprazole), Demadex (torsemide), Medrol (methylprednisolone), Citracal + d (calcium citrate, ergocalciferol), Lanoxin (digoxin), Epipen (epinephrine), Lexapro (escitalopram oxalate), Folvite (folic acid), Plaquenil (hydroxychloroquine sulfate). Patient's medications of Pepcid, Lasix, and Aldactone were stopped after discharge from the hospital. The patient was instructed to take pantoprazole 40 mg daily while on steroids and when steroids tapered, he had to discontinue it in future and would stop pantoprazole and resume taking home dose of famotidine. Patient was on nifedipine at home and physician thought to be the contributing factor to lower extremity edema so stopped taking the nifedipine in house. It was reported that steroid induced the diabetes. It was reported that the patient needs transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) due to had worsening MR (mitral regurgitation) but not agreeable at that time. The patient tried ethacrynic acid 50 mg daily but felt it was not making a difference with his weight. The patient went back on the Bumex (bumetanide) on Friday. Patient's weight slowly coming down to see doing good later on Bumex, his rash subsiding and leg was healing. Patient's weight was stable at 155 lbs and had multifactorial stable shortness of breath (SOB). Patient's weight was above baseline and needed more diuretics. Patient had been in touch with his COVID positive brother who was symptomatic and refused to be covid testing quarantining at that time. On 24Feb2021, the patient got his first dose of COVID-19 vaccine and his temperature was 101.1 °F in 2021. The patient would take Tylenol (paracetamol) and monitor if fever persists to 48 hours he would go to the urgent care. Patient was started on Eliquis and felt much better and no longer to had temperatures and diarrhea. On an 21Apr2021, the patient had right heart catheterization which revealed moderate pulmonary hypertension with right atrium (RA) 7, right ventricle (RV) 12, pressure wave (PW) 15, PA 62/ 25/40, PA saturation 63 %, CO 7, CI 3.52. Patient had chronically high PAD's and could not take metolazone secondary to hypercalcemia and pending admission for colonoscopy with the physician. Patient reminded multiple times by physician for getting a COVID-19 swab. The patient also had increased 4 lb weight in Apr 2021 since discharge from the hospital. Action taken with PO Orenitram dose due to the event of COVID-19 pneumonia was updated to dose decreased and for the events of acute respiratory failure, pulmonary arterial hypertension, influenza, fluid overload, mitral valve incompetence, steroid diabetes, oedema peripheral, weight fluctuation, rash, pyrexia, diarrhoea and limb discomfort was not reported. Action taken with nifedipine, and Medrol dose for the events of COVID-19 pneumonia, acute respiratory failure, pulmonary arterial hypertension, influenza, fluid overload, mitral valve incompetence, steroid diabetes, oedema peripheral, weight fluctuation, rash, pyrexia diarrhoea and limb discomfort was not reported. At the time of reporting, the outcome of the events of acute respiratory failure, pulmonary arterial hypertension, influenza, fluid overload, mitral valve incompetence, steroid diabetes, oedema peripheral, weight fluctuation was unknown. The outcome of the events of rash and limb discomfort was recovering. The outcome of the events of pyrexia and diarrhoea was recovered on an unreported date in 2021. The reporter did not provide causality for the events of acute respiratory failure, pulmonary arterial hypertension, influenza, fluid overload, mitral valve incompetence, steroid diabetes, oedema peripheral, weight fluctuation, rash, pyrexia, diarrhoea, and limb discomfort. Case Comment/Senders Comment: The company has assessed the serious adverse events of COVID-19 pneumonia, acute respiratory failure, pulmonary arterial hypertension, influenza, fluid overload, mitral valve incompetence, and steroid diabetes as not related to Orenitram. The event of COVID-19 pneumonia was related to the ongoing SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, and the event influenza was related to seasonal Influenza B. The event acute respiratory failure was likely related to acute influenza, but was also possibly impacted by pulmonary insult from COVID-19 pneumonia, and underlying lupus associated with PAH. The event pulmonary arterial hypertension was likely an exacerbation of the underlying PAH due to the concurrent infections. The event mitral valve incompetence and fluid overload were likely related to cardiac dysfunction associated with the underlying chronic and progressive PAH. The event steroid diabetes was likely related to co-suspect medication Medrol, which was used as treatment for the lupus, although co-suspect medication nifedipine was possibly contributory to the event in view of its safety profile and as such cannot be excluded. Pfizer is a marketing authorization holder of [Nifedipine] in the country of incidence or the country where the product was purchased (if different). This may be a duplicate report if another marketing authorization holder of [Nifedipine] has submitted the same report to the regulatory authorities. Information on the batch/Lot number has been requested.; Sender's Comments: Based on the temporal association and the known safety profile, a possible contributory role of BNT162B2 to the development of drug ineffective, COVID-19, pneumonia, rash, pyrexia and diarrhoea cannot be excluded. Acute hypoxemic respiratory failure was secondary to COVID-19, therefore was also considered as related to BNT162B2. The other events were considered as due to underlying or intercurrent conditions and unrelated to BNT162B2. Steroid diabetes was considered as related to methylprednisolone and other events were unrelated to methylprednisolone. Oedema peripheral and limb discomfort were considered as related to nifedipine and other events were unrelated to nifedipine. 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.

The patient previously took Plavix (Brilinta replaced Plavix to keep his stents open. He was on Plavix over 6 years ago), Fentanyl, and Versed. The patient experienced passed out (hospitalization) on 04May2021, blood pressure is low/blood pressure was 80 something over 50 something (hospitalization) on 01May2021, not feeling well on Apr2021, white blood count is high on an unspecified date, dehydrated on an unspecified date. The patient was hospitalized for passed out and blood pressure is low/blood pressure was 80 something over 50 something from 04May2021 to 05May2021. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included blood count: 13 on 12May2021. The patient received Pfizer COVID vaccine and reported after 1st dose received on 22Apr2021 he is not feeling well, he has an underlying heart issue and a history of stents placed, white blood cells are high and has a low blood pressure. His Dr. asked him to call Pfizer to ask if this could have been reported as side effects from vaccination. He was asking if he should get the second dose. He had Pfizer shot and has got to get the second one on Saturday. He doesn't know if it is related or not. He has been going to the doctor. He has underlying conditions and takes heart medications and has stents. He has not been feeling good since getting the shot. He is not sure if it is affiliated. His white blood count is high and he has to go to the doctor. His doctor is advising him to hold off on getting the second one and told him to call and ask if anyone else has had side effects like that. He clarified shot as COVID19 Vaccine. He saw his cardiologist yesterday and they thought it was interesting that he started having problems. They wanted him to call the phone number and see if he can postpone the second one. He is not sure if it is related to the shot. His blood pressure has been really low (01May2021) since taking the shot. He takes a ton of medications and they are having to adjust his medications since. Not been feeling good is ongoing. It started 3 to 4 days after getting shot. White blood count is high information reported as he was in the hospital and they didn't say anything about his white count. They did his blood count yesterday and they said it was 13 and want him to see his primary care. He just found out about that yesterday. He is going to see his primary care today. He was in the hospital from 04May2021 to 05May2021 because he passed out because his blood pressure was 80 something over 50 something. Blood pressure is low has improved but they have adjusted his medications to help it improve. COVID19 Vaccination Card: it says first dose COVID19. It doesn't have how much was administered. There is a number 42221 on the vaccination card, but he is not sure what it is. At first caller had said he got the vaccine on 24Apr2021, but then clarified that he got the vaccine on 22Apr2021.

After the second dose my chest started to feel very tight at first. Yet, it progressed to my right calf. I was experiencing very severe pain in my right calf. I thought the pain will eventually go away yet it still continued. About three weeks after my second dose, May 24th, I drove myself to a local clinic, and they directed me to the emergency room to get a X-Ray of my right calf. They found a blood clot. The doctors bandaged my calf and prescribed me Xarelto to treat the pain. In addition to the prescription, they directed me to a Vascular doctor to documented the recovery. As of now it is unclear if the blood clot is completely gone, however, my calf is still swollen. In addition to that, my little toe and the heel of my right foot is numb to any sensations.

About 4 days after second shot, I noticed I had bumps on by back side. They did not itch. I though they were from bike riding - chafing. But they moved around. 10 days after, my lip started to swell pretty badly while I was in a meeting. Got online with doctor was told to go to hospital. Anaphylaxis was the diagnosis. They gave standard care - steroids, antihistamine, pepcid, etc. Issue went away including the bumps on behind. Was told to go my doctor. Went to my doctor. Said dont worry, likely will not come back again. Just a reaction of some type. Next night lip swelled up - other side of mouth. Online doctor said to go emergency room. Back to emergency same treatment - more steroids, pecid, antihistamine. Back to my doctor and he sends me to alergist. I have never had an allergic reaction to anything in my life. Allergist said the reaction is due to the covid shot and making my immune system go crazy. He put me on regimen of pepcid and antihistamine. Seems to work for about a week - but then the hives came back. More swelling of the face (lips, eyes) but none bad enough to go to hospital. Taking meds 3 to 4 times a day (pepcid and antihistamine). Had swelling in the ankle which the doctor said basically hives gone crazy. Then the hives got worse - and itching. Covered most of my body. The hives on the bottom of the feet felt like walking on air pillow packaging material. Dr puts me back on steroids. Go through this process twice with steroids. Dr said we would have to go the route of Xolair. Received first injection three weeks ago. But after shot had bad hives again with itching this time - more steroids. Then things sort of leveled out - still had hives but not a large - and no itching _ thank goodness. But then on 7-2-21 I woke up with severe swelling of the face - and into the throat. Had difficulty swallowing. Back to emergency room again - more shots and Epinephrine. They prescribe more steroids and epi pen just in case because the reaction was so severe. Second shot of Xolair is in one more week - hopefully gets things under control.

This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 57 years old male patient received first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Solution for injection), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Right on 31Mar2021 12:00 (at the age of 57 years)(Batch/Lot Number: ER8732) as DOSE 1, SINGLE for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included covid-19 from 27Nov2020 to an unknown date. There were no concomitant medications. The patient previously took allegra and experienced allergies. Patient historical vaccine included Shingrix (he got Shringrix closer to 2 months ago). It was reported that, caller would like to know why he got sicker from the covid vaccine than from the natural infection itself which he had 27Nov2020. DSU: E-transmitting possible duplicate AE as caller stated they already reported AE to previous agent. Report# #. Caller states 'how do I have more symptoms than when I actually caught the virus?' after receiving the 1st dose of the covid vaccine. It was not anaphylaxis or an allergic reaction as his shortness of breath happened 1-2 days after receiving the dose and today was the 5th day and he was starting to feel better. Caller used the term (Withheld) information referring to information he has received so far. Unclear from who exactly. Additional Context: States he was calling about the Pfizer covid vaccine and was calling to report severe side effects he experienced last week and for some questions he had. States he had COVID four months ago on 27Nov2020 for about 2 weeks it took to shake it and he was no worse for wear but had 103 degree Fahrenheit temperature, lost 13 pounds, had a cough that drug on and he figured he was building immunities. States he does not know how long the immunity would last from having covid so he got the Pfizer COVID Vaccine and took the 1st dose on 31Mar2021; states the vaccine made him sicker with more symptoms and he was worse with the vaccine than he was with the actual disease covid. HCP information: Caller declined to provide HCP information and states he feels that is not necessary. Reporter details: Caller declined to provide email address. States by the evening on 31Mar2021, he had a headache, a very sore arm and never had a vaccine or shot that hurt as much as the Pfizer COVID Vaccine did; no further details provided. States what he experienced was listed as potential side effects and by that evening, he was feeling shivers, had a temperature, it made him really tired, pounding headache and elevated pulse; states his fever got up to 102.2 degrees Fahrenheit and he has probably hotter than that when he checked his temperature. Caller states these symptoms lasted through about 2 days; states the fever resolved with Tylenol and has not taken it this morning and kind of had leftovers and was trying to shake it; states he had 3-4 days of Tylenol and last night it seems to take the fever out. States the elevated pulse was up by 30 and he clarified to state his pulse usually runs normally by his wrist 55-75 resting heart beat and his pulse was 87 for about three days and the Pfizer vaccine jacked him up. States he had muscle joints, aches and pains and chills and doesn't know if the vaccine caused the fever or how severe but he had to get in bed and the 2nd day he did not get up. States the injection site was swelling and had pain and he had swollen lymph nodes. States if he had not felt better on Saturday morning he would have gone to the urgent care or to his HCP but he started to feel a little better. States the Pfizer vaccine caused a cough and shortness of breath for about 2 of the three days after he got the vaccine. States the elevated pulse struck him as strange and he did not experience this with the covid he had last fall and he did have the cough last fall with covid after Thanksgiving but was not short of breath and was able to keep exercising at that time and going through that hit him harder with the vaccine. Caller states he slept in his chair which cleared his lungs and it really surprised him that this occurred. States he takes vitamins and an allergy pill Allegra and takes Tamsulosin in the morning for his prostate deal and has taken all of these for years and started the Allegra probably last month since it was spring and he has allergies. States he got the 1st dose of Shingrix weeks earlier than the Pfizer vaccine but does not know the date; states he got Shringrix closer to 2 months ago when he had his annual physical and follow up and checked before scheduling the Shingrix and was told as long as it was two weeks apart from the Pfizer vaccine he was good and thought it might be around 6 weeks that he had the Shingrix and the HCP is his primary doctor and it was Dr. (Withheld). States he tried to do the online filing with the CDC website from the sheet they gave him but the website did not work and when the channels and numbers don't work it wastes everyone's time. States he got the Pfizer vaccine and the Shingrix vaccine in different arms on purpose. States his questions are if he can't get the disease from the Pfizer vaccine, why did he get additional symptoms that were more severe than when he had the disease covid; what is the level of effects with one dose of the Pfizer Vaccine and he would not have taken it if he knew how severe he would react and is not planning on getting the 2nd dose; if this is normal and was it expected and Pfizer is keeping quiet to coax everyone to get the vaccine right now he is not taking the 2nd dose, so what is good for the 1st and he feels like he had a booster with his 1st dose and feels like he had 2 doses since he actually had covid prior to the vaccine; people his age are older and have more severe side effects with the 2nd dose he has read and maybe this is the 2nd dose so why would he get the 2nd dose. Caller states he will take his chances on getting the disease. States he thinks it had been more than a month since he had the Shringrix vaccine and states he has no lot number, expiry date or NDC to provide. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included on an unspecified date, shake: 103 fahrenheit, shake 102.2 fahrenheit, heart rate: up by 30, heart rate: 87.

Right Foot started hurting the night after the vaccine. The next day, it hurt to walk on it. Mainly around the base of my 2nd and 3rd toes. The next day it hurt so bad I couldn't walk on it and saw the doctor. A red area had developed on top of my foot at the base on my toes. Doctor though could be Gout but didn't really look like it and usually that is in the big toes. Plus the timing of this issue and my vaccine were suspect. Had X-ray on that Friday, two days after vaccine and everything looked fine they said. I was prescribed Celebrex and over the weekend took two per day due to the pain. I stayed in bed all weekend and pain got worse before taking another dose of medicine which helped for a while. Swelling continued to be about the same or a bit more and the redness moved over to my big toe and then up my foot around towards the right side. Today my right side of foot is really soar now as well and still can't walk on it and still swollen. Doctor at a urgent care sports medicine location prescribed me Prednisone steroid to see if that helps. But so far 5 days after vaccine and my foot is still swollen, red across the top and so painful it keeps me up at night and I can't walk on it. I'm hoping the steroids work.

Approximately 45 minutes after receiving the shot I started experiencing some mild tingling/burning in my right shoulder (at the injection site). Shortly afterwards, I also noticed swelling and numbness in my hands and face. The swelling in my hands increased to the point where my ring finger on my left hand began throbbing. The ring is already tight due to weight gain, but I became concerned that I may need to cut the ring off. Throbbing plateaued and continued for about an hour then subsided. Swelling and numbness also plateaued and subsided, though those took longer (about 2 days). Overall, it felt a bit like the time I discovered that I was allergic to shrimp/lobster/crab but it did not progress to the same level (no trouble breathing with this episode).

At 1:30 AM on Sunday 3/28/21, I awoke with severely swollen lips and face. My breathing began to get difficult, so I immediately headed to the ER at (about 30 minutes away). They at first started to give me a dose of Benedryl, but I explained to them that I am allergic to it. I then instead received some Prednisone and immediately the swelling subsided. Dr. prescribed 15 pills over a 5-day span to totally clear up the reaction.

Initial symptom was swollen lymph nodes in left armpit--where I got the shot. I am informed enough to know this means I had active antibodies that recognized the virus and attacked it. This lasted approximately 4 days. After day 2, this began where I am today; occasional vertigo/loss of balance with persistent high blood pressure/headaches consistent with when I contracted Covid 11/2020. I have been to my primary doctor twice. The possibility of this being a vaccine reaction has never come up. It is as if I have the headache/blood pressure portion of Covid infection all over again. There is no outcome yet. Having read other people's comments, it is a waste of time and money to get diagnostic tests, and physicians are guessing. No thank you, I learned of these symptoms and this website from the many internet forums (one is listed above) where people are discussing their vaccine reactions. I never wanted this vaccine, but there is considerable pressure to get vaccinated, even when you contracted the virus. I feel vaccine passports are going to be forced on people. I regret the decision to do this. My second shot is scheduled for 4/30, but I am cancelling it, I am certain this is Covid vaccine related. I am a very healthy and physically fit 58 year old that eats well. Don't drink, don't smoke, mainly vegetarian diet.

Caller reported that she questions the allergist's opinion because of the misery that the patient has been in. Caller stated that she just needs some answers. Caller reported that the patient's allergist had stated that there was one other person that he was aware of that had a reaction 10 days after receiving the Covid-19 vaccine. Caller stated that it was odd that the rash had started 10 days in, and reported that the patient ruled out food and ruled out any changes as the patient hadn't changed soap or laundry detergent recently. Details were not provided for the other patient the allergist reported had a delayed reaction 10 days after receiving a Covid-19 vaccine. Caller reported that the patient's allergist thinks the Covid-19 vaccine caused the patient's reaction. Caller reported that she and the patient are scared about whether he should get the second dose of the Covid-19 vaccine and are unsure of what she and the patient should do at this point. Caller stated that she knows that people don't like to give advice, but that they say if you have immediate adverse reaction you shouldn't get the second dose of the Covid-19 vaccine. Caller stated that the patient's reaction wasn't immediate, and asked if it the rash should still be considered an adverse reaction and the patient should not go get second the second dose, or should the patient go with what his doctor said as it is recommended that you should listen to physician.

Caller reported that the patient's primary care physician did take blood work, but the patient's allergist said that the results of the bloodwork would probably not be relevant based on fact that the patient was on medication at the point that the labs were drawn. Caller reported that she believed the initial prescription for prednisone was 10 mg tablets. Caller reported that the patient had to take 4 tablets the first day, 3 tablets the second day, 2 tablets the third day, and 1 tablet after that. Caller reported that she and the patient are concerned about the patient getting the second dose of the Covid-19 vaccine. Caller reported that she and the patient are trying to anticipate what would happen after the patient received the second dose. Caller stated that she would like to know if someone would recommend or say it's ok for the patient to get the second dose of the Covid-19 vaccine, and if the patient has a reaction, that it won't be as life threatening as getting Covid-19. Prednisone did not help rash, hives, or itching (10 mg tablets, dispensed in pharmacy bottle).

A 58-year-old male patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), first dose via an unspecified route of administration, administered in the left arm on 10Mar2021 at 16:30 (batch/lot number: EN6208) as a single dose for COVID-19 immunisation (wanted the protection). Medical history included deep vein thrombosis (DVT) from Jul2018 and ongoing. No family medical history relevant to the adverse events. Concomitant medication included warfarin taken for maintenance level for history of DVT from Aug2020 and ongoing. The patient experienced DVT in right leg on 02Apr2021, swelling in right leg on 15Mar2021 and discomfort in right leg while walking on 15Mar2021. The patient reported that he had a reaction to the COVID-19 vaccine and he believes that it was directly related to the COVID-19 vaccine. He reported that he has a history of blood clots in his right leg going back to 2018. He reported that his most recent DVT was in Aug2020 and he was cleared in Nov2020. He reported that he received the COVID-19 vaccine on 10Mar2021. He reported that on 15Mar2021, he started to notice his right leg swelling. He reported that he called his physician on 29Mar2021 and that his physician ordered an ultrasound. He reported that he had the ultrasound on 02Apr2021 and a deep vein thrombosis was found again. Swelling in right leg: he reported that the swelling has gone down. He reported that the reason that he mentioned that he has a history of blood clots was because of his warfarin dosage. He reported that he was first diagnosed with a deep vein thrombosis in Jul2018. He reported that he went through that cycle and that his maintenance level of warfarin was maybe 10 or 12 mg of warfarin per day. He reported that he had another deep vein thrombosis in Aug2020, and since Aug2020 he has been on 17 mg of warfarin daily. He reported that the blood level on warfarin maintenance was supposed to be between 2 and 2.5. He reported that now because of the deep vein thrombosis he experienced in Aug2020, his doctor wanted his level to be at 2.5 to 3.5. He stated that he doesn't think that at that blood level for his warfarin that he should have gotten a blood clot. He reported that something compromised or interfered with the warfarin, resulting in a deep vein thrombosis. Discomfort when walking: he reported that it feels like his leg was compressing. He reported that the discomfort seems to have gotten better. He was queried for details of warfarin prescription. He reported that the 10 or 12 mg warfarin tablets that he had been taking when the blood clot was diagnosed in Aug2020 have been consumed and he no longer has the bottle. He reported that he did not have the bottle with him for his current warfarin prescription. He reported that the warfarin was not auto-refilled by the pharmacy. He reported that the warfarin was only prescribed a week or two at a time. Investigations: he reported that since Aug2020 when the deep vein thrombosis returned, he started doing self INR tests at home. He reported that he constantly self-monitors his INR at home and his levels were consistently at 3.0 to 3.1. He reported that he monitors his INR at least once a week, sometimes twice a week depending on how he feels. He reported that sometimes his INR goes over 4 and he can feel it. He reported that his system was a little off when it feels too high so he knows how to adjust. He reported that he last checked his INR today, 15Apr2021, and that it was 4.0. He reported that he typically checks his INR on Wednesday. He reported that he keeps a log of his INR levels. He reported that he did not see his physician on 29Mar2021, but that he called his physician and his physician wrote a prescription for the caller to get an ultrasound. Vaccination facility type was pharmacy. Vaccine was not administered at military facility. The adverse events did not require a visit to the emergency room and physician office. No prior vaccinations (within 4 weeks). He reported that he doesn't usually get vaccines. BNT162B2 second dose (lot number: ER5729) was administered on an unspecified date; anatomical location: left arm. The outcome of the events was recovering.

On April 30, 2021, I received the 2nd dose of the COVID-19 (Pfizer-BioNTech) vaccine which was 3 weeks after receiving the 1st dose. Then on May 3rd, I experienced pronounced shortness-of-breath while at work lifting objects up to 20 lbs and walking short distances of 20 to 40 m on flat ground. Then on May 4th, 2021, I went into a nearby Urgent Care Clinic (UCC) with shortness-of-breath and exertional dyspnea as the main symptoms. At the UCC blood tests were done along with EKG and chest x-ray. Blood tests revealed several results that were not within standard ranges: troponin (1.25 ng/mL), BNP (5130 pg/mL), D-dimer (1320 ng/mL FEU), and C-reactive protein (75.5 mg/L). I was told that I had congestive heart failure and NSTEMI. UCC then directed me to go to the Emergency Department (ED) at a nearby hospital. In the ED, more tests were done: EKG, CT scan chest (no blood clots were found in the lungs), and cardiac ultrasound (estimated ejection fraction 40-45%). That evening I was transferred to the main hospital for further observation and tests. Not much happened on May 5th and I was not seen by a doctor until 5pm. Then early in the morning of May 6th, I experienced chest pain which lasted between 5 and 10 minutes. I was given oral nitroglycerine. My primary care physician (PCP) and a cardiologist elected to move forward with an angiogram. On May 6th, I underwent cardiac catheterization (CC). The CC report states: (a) 2nd Diag lesion is 50% stenosed (b) Mid RCA to Dist RCA lesion is 80% stenosed,(c) RV branch lesion is 80% stenosed, (d) RPDA lesion is 80% stenosed. Likely spontaneous coronary artery dissection of the mid to distal RCA and postal to mid PDA status post PCI with 2 Xience drug-eluting stents. Post-angiogram+angioplasty tests were done, including carotid artery ultrasound (results within normal limits. No hemodynamically significant stenoses) and MRI brain (punctate foci of restricted diffusion in both cerebral hemispheres. Multiple vascular distributions w/o larger territorial infarct suggest emboli). Other blood test results were: antinuclear antibody (ANA) IFA screen (positive), BNP (8631 pg/mL). I was released from the hospital on May 8, 2021. Follow-up care included cardiac rehab therapy and consultations with the cardiologist, PCP, a neurologist and rheumatologist. Incidentally, 12 days after the angiogram and angioplasty, I experienced temporary numbness and loss of movement in my right arm which lasted no more than a minute, indicative of a transient ischemic attack (TIA). Root cause investigations focusing on SCAD and TIA are on-going.

Patient said that he had not gone to the doctor or ER. He had not gone to the doctor yet. He said the ER would be a waste of time. They would do lots of tests. He had a call into his doctor. He would get in in a few weeks. He had been negligent, and his symptoms were not getting any better, they were getting worse. He would call and get in as soon as possible. He was thinking this would go away. He stated that if events went on for 6 to 8 weeks, he would probably get into his doctor. He did not like running to the doctor. Patient said that if he cut off his leg, he would probably not go for 3 days, he did not like the process. He reported that all of his family had been vaccinated with no issues at all. Relevant tests were reported as none. On additional follow-up on 23Jun2021, patient stated that after dose 1, he had some muscle fatigue. Says it is progressing to the point where he gets in bed and has severe pain in feet and knees, not in hips, but more in extremities. Also stated that thumbs feel like they're dislocated. He did not require emergency room and physician office visit. He stated that had not been to doctor yet but considering getting an appointment. He had not gone to the doctor or ER as it would be a waste of time because if there was a .0001 percent chance of a reaction, he doesn't want unneeded tests and procedures. He asked if it's common, and if it was, he might wait a little longer to see his HCP. He wanted to know how long the effects had lasted with others that reported similar effects. Patient was directed to cvdvaccine.com for further reading at his discretion. Referred to HCP for ongoing management of symptoms. Patient stated that he felt better knowing he was not the only one that has experienced theses side effects. The outcome of all the events was unknown. Information on Lot/Batch number was available.

On April 17, 2021 I woke up with unexplained inflammation and pain in shoulders and hips/groin/ thighs. I thought possibly it was from swimming the day before but swimming was very minimal. I was on vacation. I came back home and went to my PCP. He ran blood tests and c-reactive protein seemed to be the only test elevated. I was referred to rheumatologist. Unable to get in for months. I visited ER because of persistent pain and inflammation. They ran blood tests and covid test. Negative covid and again high levels on c reactive protein. Finally able to get into rheumatologist.

Bell's palsy; eye sight in that eye is getting worse every day; right eyelid was sticking on his eye and wouldn't shut; he couldn't move his face on the left side and he can't control it at all; blood got really thin and wouldn't clot; left hand got really swollen; entire arm bruised; edema in his hand; edema in his hand got to the point where his skin was cracking; blood got really thin and wouldn't clot; face went numb; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 59-year-old male patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE; lot number: EN6207, Expiration Date: Jul2021), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Right on 11Mar2021 (at the age of 59 years old) as single dose for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included lupus from 2020 and ongoing, ongoing High Blood Pressure, Spinal Surgeries from 1999, Chronic Pain,Retention water, blood clot issue. The patient previously had tetanus shot. Concomitant medications included losartan potassium; allopurinol; hydroxychloroquine; methocarbamol; morphine sulfate (MS CONTIN); oxycodone; furosemide. Caller states he is calling about the Pfizer Covid 19 Vaccine. Seven days later the dose of vaccine (18Mar2021), patient developed Bell's Palsy which he has never had before and has never had any other problem with. He has seen an ENT, his pain doctor, and his medical doctor and they all say the Covid vaccine has caused the problem he is having. He was told by his ENT this is very possibly permanent. Emergency Doctors are who he went to because he thought he was having a stroke, because half of his face went numb. He has been to the doctor 10 times in the last 7 days, it has not been fun at all. He didn't put it together until he saw the ENT, who said Bell's Palsy is caused from a virus. States he had no idea until he said that, that it could possibly be from the injection. States he has never had Bells Palsy before and it started 8 days after the initial shot. His right eyelid was sticking on his eye and wouldn't shut and he couldn't move his face on the left side and he can't control it at all. Clarifies he couldn't shut his right eye all of the way. Since then they have told him he needs to tape his eye shut for 12 hours a day to keep from going blind. The thing that bothers him is his eye sight in that eye is getting worse every day even though he uses the cream and tapes it shut. His wife told him even with both eyes shut, it will not completely shut because his lower eyelid is hanging down too far. The ENT told him he needs a hearing test today at 2:00p.m. to see if this is going to be a permanent problem. He is getting ready to go to the ear doctor to find out more. At the same time he developed the Bells Palsy, his blood got really thin and wouldn't clot which seems really weird. Also on 18MAR2021, his left hand got really swollen and the entire arm bruised and they said the edema in his hand got to the point where his skin was cracking because his blood got so thin that it couldn't clot at all. He had a blood clot issue in the past. States his arm and hand have improved, he can move his hand again finally. The ENT said that since he has been on Prednisone, for recovery for Bells Palsy, for over a week and gotten worse instead of better, it may be permanent. Prednisone is not working, it has actually gotten worse. Prednisone 10mg for 7 days and to decrease by one tablet every day until gone but states he has gotten worse. Treatments (assessed as for all events): Prednisone. States that it has been two weeks since this happened and the doctor told him the only other option is skull surgery. The bones in his head would be drilled out to make room for the nerves in hopes he would be able to work his mouth again, so not a good thing. Eye cream. He is on disability and his house payment is 3/4 of what he makes, so he can't take care of the medical bills himself otherwise he wouldn't worry about it. It is very depressing. His medical doctor said he hadn't seen any cases of Bell's Palsy for 2 years, and he has seen 4 in the last week so that doesn't give him a lot of confidence even though he is still encouraging people to get the vaccine because it is safer than not.He has multiple visits to the ER 3 times between 18MAR2021 and 19MAR2021 within 24 hours; states he was in the ER for hours and hours but no admission. States they did a CT Scan, MRI, CT with contrast and then after that ended up 22 saw ENT who confirmed the fact that Covid Vaccine that gave Bells Palsy and on 22-23 saw his GM again. Prior Vaccinations (within 4 weeks): None within 4 weeks; states 9 months ago he had a Tetanus Shot. No AE(s) following prior vaccinations. The outcome of the event Bell's palsy, Visual acuity decreased, Eyelid disorder, Orofacial dyskinesia, numbness in face was not recovered; other events was recovering. All events happened on 18Mar2021.

Thumb hurt; Hand swelled up; Elbow was swollen; Intense pain in the elbow; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 59-years-old male patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), dose 2 via an unspecified route of administration, at age of 59 years old, administered in Arm Left on 09Apr2021 09:45 (Lot Number: EN6200; Expiration Date: 30Jun2021) at single dose for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included blood pressure increased from 1995 and ongoing (It is controlled), anxiety (young and suffering from anxiety, has no clue why) and family cancer history. The patient previous received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Right on 19Mar2021 09:45 (Lot Number: EN6200; Expiration Date: 30Jun2021), at age of 59 years old, at single dose for covid-19 immunisation. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. He received the Covid vaccine on 09Apr2021. The following day he later noticed his elbow started bothering him that night, and around midnight it woke him up. He had intense pain in the elbow and tried to tough it out. 4 hours later he was in the ER, it was that bad. When he got there they did an ultrasound and some X-rays. The ultrasound showed his elbow was swollen, and they removed 17cc of fluid. They asked if he had any trauma to his arm and he said absolutely no way. He doesn't know what to think. He was trying to find someone to help with the issue. On a scale of 1 to 10 the pain was a strong 10. To this day it was still bothering him pretty bad. He coundn't work because of it. He could hardly straighten it out because it is so sore. It was painful, but not as bad as Saturday(10Apr2021) and Sunday(11Apr2021) morning. On 13Apr2021, his hand swelled up. That's gone away. His thumb hurt on 14Apr2021 and that had gone away, he just aced that. He put ice on his elbow. His elbow from last night(13Apr2021) to today (14Apr2021) probably had a 30 percent change. It is getting better but it is still sore. He can't straighten it and he is trying to bend it to work it so it doesn't get stiff. With the work he does he needs to use his arms. He works in construction. He got the shot on 09Apr2021, and the pain was later in the day. He received his dose around 0945, and at about 1500 to 1530 he noticed his elbow bothering him. Later that night when he went to bed he was uncomfortable and couldn't sleep. Eventually he did fall asleep and at 0000 he woke up in excruciating pain. He tried to deal with it until 0400 when he went to the ER. His pain is nowhere near what it was. When he tries to straighten it, it is very painful, about a 6. If he bends it back it is much better. If he tries to straighten it the pain level goes up. It is still swelled up a bit. It is hard to say if it has improved, he never really saw it. He went to bed and when he woke up he was in so much pain. He had on his PJs and put on his shoes and left. All he knew was he was in pain. He presumed it was more swollen then, they did the ultrasound and found all that fluid. The pain in his thumb subsided a bit. He took the ice off of it about 30 minutes before this phone call, so about 45 minutes ago. It feels a little better. At least one part of the puzzle is solved. He noticed it at about 0730 this morning. He had an ultrasound on 11Apr2021. He had 3 to 4 X-rays on 11Apr2021. Outcome for events was not recovered. The patient was not diagnosed with COVID-19 prior to vaccination, and Since the vaccination, the patient has not been tested for COVID-19. The patient did not receive any other vaccines within 4 weeks prior to the COVID vaccine. No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information expected

To this day my upper right lip randomly swells.

The physician placed him on gabapentin 100 mg to start from 12Apr2021, but it was not enough, it was titrated up to 300 mg, three times a day and he is scheduled to see specialist soon. The patient mentioned that this vaccine has ruined his health. He also went to an urgent care center because his leg was bothering him, it was swelling on an unspecified date in 2021; he thought he had a blood clot; they did some kind of test where they looked at the leg and did not find anything. He didn't have a particular question. He would just like to talk to someone to see if this was going on with anyone else, if it will go away, or if this was permanent problem he will have. The patient was not tested for COVID post vaccination. He received his second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number: EW0161), via an unspecified route of administration in left arm on 13Apr2021 at 15:00 at single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. The outcome of the events was not recovered.

After receiving the second dose of Pfizer vaccine my old Achilles? tendon repair became red, swollen and painful. I have been using conservative treatments at home, everyday for 2 weeks. ice, heat, over the counter anti-inflammatory meds. The adverse condition persists. To date, I have not sought medical attention from a orthopedic specialist but have an upcoming appointment scheduled. I do not know for sure if the covid vaccine has caused a flare-up of inflammation in an old Achilles? tendon injury but it does seem quite coincidental that having had no pain or problems with my old injury from 12 years ago, that two day after receiving the covid-19 vaccine, I have swollen inflammation in my tendon causing great difficulty in walking.

A 59-years-old male patient received first dose BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE Solution for injection, Batch/Lot Number: EN6204, Expiry date: unknown), dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration on 12Mar2021 at 17:30 as 1ST DOSE, SINGLE DOSE for covid-19 immunization.

After the First 1st dose on Friday (12Mar2021) and 5-6hours later at around 11:30pm he had a terrible asthma attack, he had difficulty breathing, it started out with a cough then wheezing that kept getting worse, he did not have an inhaler that was not at least 10yrs old. He was lying down, so he sat up and that helped him. he didn't' want have the ambulance come over or take him to the hospital because it's too expensive and he don't have insurance. He thought he was having an anaphylactic reaction, like the caption drive ship in the storm. So, he sat up for 2 hours because I could not lie down could not breathe when he lies down. So, he sat up and pulled for breath and he had a terrible asthma attack, terrible wheeze, and coughing. If he would have started to get blotchy and swollen, then he probably would have call back the ambulance. He called the information for the number, hospital, they gave me the neurology department in the hospital for whatever reason he does not know. Then he called the police station and then googled phone number for the hospital that does not work anymore, and he could not call the hospital then he called the police station they tell him not to keep following. That is quite alright he had that Covid shot if he dies overnight then you can document what he told but he did not die overnight because he is feeling better, but the question is has not had an asthma attack like that since he was like 5 years old. The outcome is Unknown for all the events Response: Unable to determine how someone will react to 1st or 2nd dose. Referred to HCP on recommendations for 2nd dose.
