Caller verified that she just wanted to ask basically that patient was not alone, if other people might have had that happen too. Caller stated that she tried to call, and it would ask another question and it would say press 1 or 2, then it would ask other questions and it would say press 1 or 2, she never got an option 3. Caller asked: how much percentage, has anyone reported this side effects weeks after the second dose. Caller was wondering if this reaction could have been from the vaccine.

A 60-year-old female patient received the first dose of the bnt162b2 (BNT162B2; Lot Number: ER8727), via an unspecified route of administration in the left arm on 26Mar2021 at 14:00 at a single dose for covid-19 immunisation.

On 27Mar2021 at 2:00, the patient experienced deathly sick, fainted, fracture of ankle/two fractures on her ankle, severely nauseous, vomiting, and diarrhea. On an unknown date, the patient experienced dvt blood clot, ankle was still swollen and uncomfortable/discomfort, the nights are the worst for the pain, pulse ox was low, and d-dimer was very high. The event, deathly sick, was life-threatening. The clinical course was as follows: the patient had the first dose of the vaccine on 26Mar2021 at 14:00 in the afternoon in her left arm. Twelve hours after the first dose, later in the night about 02:00 AM she woke up deathly sick; and severely nauseous. She remembered she was going to the bathroom then she must have fainted because they were taking her to the hospital. She went to the ER and they found she had a fractured ankle. She was not admitted to the hospital. She was in the ER from about 03:00 AM to noon the next day. There must have been something in there; she knew there must be something in the vaccine because of her reaction. Adds a few years ago, something like this happened before.

The other products she tried included: in 2008 she took alendronate, it made her very sick but not as severe as this time, she never fainted. She had nausea and diarrhea. Then in Dec2017 she had zoledronic acid. She went for an infusion at the hospital then went shopping, and was fine until the early morning, when she woke up with nausea and vomiting. In the ambulance, they gave her ondasetron (ZOFRAN) for the nausea so the vomiting stopped. With regard to her ankle, first they thought it was a DVT blood clot.

The nights are the worst for the pain and discomfort. Doctor at the hospital and primary care agreed she should not have the second dose. She did have mild case of COVID in Nov2020 and they are hoping she had antibodies from the infection and the first dose. Her primary care doctor was reviewing the blood work she had done at the hospital and told her they were surprised the hospital didn't admit her for observation because her pulse ox was low and there was another test that she was questioning because the d-dimer was very high. They did a chest x ray with unknown results. The doctor was questioning why they didn't do something else to rule out a blood clot.

The patient experienced congestive heart failure on Jun2021. The events assessed as serious (medically significant). Call was from two sisters, a 57 year old female and a 60 year old female. One received her Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine on 22Jun2021 and started experiencing shortness of breath and dyspnea. The other sister received the Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine on 10Mar2021 and starting experiencing shortness of breath as well but attributed to her history of atrial fibrillation initially.

Mentions she was also diagnosed with congestive heart failure about a month ago. After she went to the emergency room she just went back and forth to her doctors. The lung doctor said she was okay and the heart doctor, too. She kept going to the doctor because it did not dawn on her that the shortness of breath might be related to the vaccination until her sister got her vaccination and had the shortness of breath. Now she believes she noticed the shortness of breath after the first dose. Mentions she has the emergency room records and her vaccination card at home to verify her information. Adds she was talking to a guy at the bus station and he had shortness of breath too. She does not know this person and declined to report regarding the guy at the bus station.

New onset eczema- Filed earlier report about being bitten by fire ants two weeks after second covid shot and having anaphylactic reaction with no prior history of insect bite allergies and have been bitten alot including the harvester ant. Now have epipen. Then started fire ant shots in June and developed butt tingling/numbness and muscle and body aches after 2nd fire ant shot. By third shot on on July 1st, I had fatigue, extreme musculoskeletal pain and developed a rash. It was really scary so went to the allergist who referred me to my GP. She thinks it is serum sickness. Saw the dermatologist today about the rash and it started about 3 to 4 days after the third fire ant shot. I have never had eczema in my life either. After three weeks from July 1st, am starting to feel better. Not sure if serum sickness caused by molecular mimicry hypersensitive immune syndrome caused by Covid vaccine or not, but there are a lot of immune mediated things happening to me in less than 3 months. My brother developed pericarditis after the second Pfizer shot and I told him to file a VAERS as well.

(MFR Control No. # 21K-163-3955081-00). A 60-year-old female patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), dose 1 intramuscular on 26Apr2021 (Batch/Lot Number: ER8730) as single dose for covid-19 immunisation; adalimumab (HUMIRA 40MG/0.4ML, Solution for injection in pre-filled pen), subcutaneous from 03Apr2020 (Batch/Lot number was not reported) to Mar2021, at Citrate Free (40 mg,1 in 2 wk), subcutaneous from Mar2021 (Batch/Lot number was not reported) and ongoing, at 40 mg for Ulcerative Colitis.

The patient previously took hydrocodone. The patient experienced loss of consciousness on May2021 with outcome of recovered on May2021, pneumonia on 05May2021 with outcome of recovered in 2021, feeling weak on 27Apr2021 with outcome of unknown, difficulty in breathing on 27Apr2021 with outcome of unknown, diarrhea on Mar2021 with outcome of recovered in 2021, arm fracture on 27Feb2021 with outcome of recovering, fall on 27Feb2021 with outcome of recovering. Clinical course: In 2021, the patient experienced chest tube had been drained and removed. On 27Feb2021, the patient experienced broken right arm in two different places and fell. In Mar2021, the patient experienced diarrhea. in May2021, the patient experienced loss of consciousness. on 05May 2021, the patient experienced pneumonia. in May 2021, the loss of consciousness resolved. in 2021, the pneumonia and diarrhea resolved. Covid-19 vaccine was also considered suspect. the patient shared that she fell in 27Feb2021 and broke her right arm so she went to the emergency room. Her x-ray revealed that she broke her arm in two different places. she was then asked to meet with an orthopedic surgeon and was scheduled for an out-patient procedure to repair her broken arm with pins and plates on the second week of Mar2021. she was sent home and was given hydrocodone for pain. she also added that the physician placed her humira on hold two weeks prior and after the procedure. because of humira was placed on hold, she experienced diarrhea for a week until it resolved. she received her first dose of her covid-19 vaccine in 26Apr2021. she noticed that she started feeling weak and had difficulty in breathing the next morning. she was rushed to the hospital in 05May2021 because her weakness and difficulty of breathing worsened. a series of unrecalled tests had been performed including chest x-ray which showed that she had pneumonia. she was then admitted and was hooked up to a machine because she had difficulty in breathing. she added that she could not recall any other treatments or diagnostic tests that was done to her because she was unconscious for three weeks and was monitored in the intensive care unit. she added that her chest tube had been drained and removed the day she got released in the hospital. she was sent home in 25May2021. alternative etiology of pneumonia, weakness, loss of consciousness, difficulty breathing were reported as covid-19 vaccine.it was unknown if patient was enrolled in a covid-19 vaccine trial. The action taken in response to the events for bnt162b2 was not applicable, for adalimumab was unknown. Causality for humira 40mg/0.4ml(adalimumab)-the reporter's causality for the event(s) of loss of consciousness, broken right arm in two different places, pneumonia, fell and diarrhea with humira 40mg/0.4ml(adalimumab) was no reasonable possibility. the reporter's causality for the event(s) of chest tube had been drained and removed was not provided. Programs opinion is that there is no reasonable possibility that the events of loss of consciousness, broken right arm in two different places, chest tube had been drained and removed, pneumonia, fell and diarrhea are related to humira 40mg/0.4ml(adalimumab). COVID-19 VACCINE (COVID-19 VACCINE)(Injection) (COVID-19 VACCINE), Causality: Loss of consciousness-Causality as per reporter (Drug/Vaccine): Probable; Arm fracture-Causality as per reporter (Drug/Vaccine): Not Related; Pneumonia-Causality as per reporter (Drug/Vaccine): Probable; Fall-Causality as per reporter (Drug/Vaccine): Not Related; Diarrhea-Causality as per reporter (Drug/Vaccine): Not Related. The reporter's assessment of the causal relationship of the events (feeling weak, difficulty in breathing) with the suspect products was not provided at the time of this report. Since no determination has been received, the case is managed based on the company causality assessment. No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information is expected.; Sender's Comments: Based on the plausible temporal relation, the association between the events of loss of consciousness, pneumonia, asthenia and dyspnoea and the suspect product of BNT162B2 cannot be completely ruled out. The confounding factor for the event of pneumonia is the co-suspect drug Humira Due to implausible temporal association, the events of diarrhoea, arm fracture and fall are assessed as unrelated to BNT162B2 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.

Upon arrival to triage she was obviously dyspneic with significantly low oxygen saturations. O2 sats on arrival were 65%, improved to mid 90's with O2 6 liters per NC. Admitting diagnosis: hypoxic respiratory failure post COVID vaccine. Lab work shows an elevation of the BUN and creatinine at 31 and 1.71 which is slightly higher than her usual baseline levels. BNP is elevated at 2 448 with a mildly elevated troponin. Procalcitonin is also elevated. Patient's white blood cell count is 11.07. Full viral panel including COVID-19 is not detected. All blood cultures and respiratory cultures were negative. Patient chest x-ray shows numerous bilateral patchy opacities which is significantly different from her previous chest x-ray here. Empiric rejection treatment initiated including high dose methylprednisolone, plasmapheresis, IVIG, Thymoglobulin. She continued to decline and ultimately required intubation, proning and paralyzing on 2/8/2021 and then VV ECMO cannulation on 2/13/2021. EGD done 2/14/2021 as unable to pass the TEE probe during cannulation prior day (unable to complete due to abnormal anatomy). Acute pupil exam change in the early am hours of 2/15/2021 prompted urgent head CT which revealed catastrophic brain bleed. Brainstem reflexes were lost soon after. Despite placing an EVD emergently at bedside, brain stem reflexes were not recovered. GOL engaged and patient not an organ donation candidate. Therefore discussion with sister at bedside resulted in decision for cessation of life support. Patient expired shortly after support withdrawn and pronounced dead on 2/15/2021 at 11:11 AM.

I am retired handicap-MS. I was doing light housework. I started getting pain in right lung, over course of 2 hours pain became very severe. Only in right lung. Felt like blood clot or pulmonary embolism (which I had 15 yrs ago). Went to hospital, check X-ray no clot/embolisms. Blood work showed no clotting factor. Was admitted 4 days. We treated possibility of MS reaction (solu-methyl) as well as heparin in event of unknown clotting issue. Here?s why this is strange: If this was MS flare/relapse, I would have muscle lockup, drop foot, sight issues, sever balance issues ...(i always have sight issues).. with this even it was only severe lung pain. Did not appear to be MS driven issue. Being educated ?high analytic person, in reflection, My ms is very territorial, it fights anesthesia, colds/flus/covid when my husband had it. My MS gets cranky when my immune system is attacked. I suspect the second covid injection was doing its thing, dna modification, and I had some lung inflammation and my MS compounded the reaction with crippling issue. I was in hospital 4 days, IV fluids, heparin, and steriod IV. Within first 36 hours the extreme lung pain disappeared and I got better. I do have cats scan, mri, X-rays from stay. Cat scan clear, X-ray, normal, mri-classic ms history. Was this Ms event? I?m not sold as I didn?t have other normal MS flare symptoms. Was this injection aggreviated? Perhaps... I?m sharing this because I think tracking auto immune disease people is important data gathering. Feel free to call if more dialogue is necessary

I experienced a slight headache sore arm and elevated blood pressure after the shot. My blood pressure is usually very well controlled. On Monday the 29th, at about 3:30 pm, I started to slur my words. At first we blamed it on the Novocaiine earlier in the day, but I had been talking fine after it and had had it many, many times before and it was worn off. We called my doctor's office after my right arm and leg became very heavy and awkward. They told me to go to the nearest hospital. When I got there, I presented ass a full stroke. I was very hard to understand and my mouth drooped and I had very little use of my right arm and leg. They ran tests, but could not give me the medication because I was already on Eliquis. They thought they saw a small clot very high up. I was hospitalized over the next four days and improved my speech dramatically after a bad headache on March 30. The doctors go back and forth to whether it was a Acute Ischemic Stroke, which is what my paperwork says and a complex migraine. I do not experience migraines or anything like this ever before. I did not have a real headache on the 29th. Since my symptoms, right arm and leg difficulties are still here, my Doctor believes it was a stroke. I have an appointment with a Neurologist and I have to have another MRI. I am going to Physical Therapy. My Doctor told me to fill this out, she thinks it may be from the vaccine.

Then my lips began to feel like they had been sunburned badly. Then my forearms both started burning and also turned bright red. I was very anxious. Had two bouts of diarrhea. All this occurred within about a 20 minute time-frame. I chewed up 4 children's Benadryl (50mg) and the redness, burning and anxiousness subsided mostly.

The 2nd reaction being 5 days after that first one and the 3rd reaction being 5 days after that. Same reaction, same treatment and same outcome.

Concomitant medications included atorvastatin (LIPITOR) taken for cholesterol, coronary artery disease, cardiac disorder from 2016 and ongoing; clopidogrel bisulfate (PLAVIX) taken for blood viscosity decreased from 2016 to 14Apr2021, patient reported when she went to the hospital they checked for a PE or Pulmonary Embolism or blood clot, they found nothing, the cardiologist said her blood was flowing beautifully so he discontinued the Plavix; acetylsalicylic acid (BABY ASPIRIN) taken for blood thinner from 2016 and ongoing; ezetimibe (ZETIA) taken for blood thinner, start and stop date were not reported. The patient previously took the first dose of bnt162b2 on 11Jan2021 (lot number: EL0142), also at age of 61 years old, at left deltoid for covid-19 immunization; tremfya injection 100 mg every 60 days for psoriasis. The patient experienced congestive heart failure (CHF) (hospitalization, disability, medically significant) in Feb2021 with outcome of not recovered, she couldn't walk up the stairs (hospitalization) in 2021 with outcome of unknown, bnp just went up and up (hospitalization) in Apr2021 with outcome of unknown. The patient was hospitalized for events from Apr2021 to 16Apr2021. Patient report she got short of breath, which she didn't attribute heart failure, she thought it was something with her lungs. And had a cough. She reported she was so short of breath she couldn't walk up the stairs. At the beginning of the month, she was better, but she couldn't go up the stairs, and she was taking cough syrup and things which didn't help. Then she was in the emergency room either on 13Apr2021 or 14Apr2021 and then she was admitted to the hospital, and then she had CHF. This started 2-3 weeks after getting the 2nd vaccine the shortness of breath, heart congestion and wheezing. Her husband said she needs to go pulmonologist to be seen. Patient confirmed she went into the hospital on the 13Apr2021 but, it was midnight and it could have been the next day also, it varies, the time. The shortness of breath and things started in February or March started, they started slowly. She could not breath at all, it started around 2-3 weeks after the vaccine. It was so bad she could not walk around, her husband was worried he went to get the car and she waited on a bench. She could not breath. These things started before 16Mar2021, maybe, between the 15Feb2021 to 21Feb2021. Patient said CHF was heart didn't pump sufficiently anymore. She was now on disability and has a Life-Vest. She was on tons of medications. She wears Life Vest for 3 months then will get echocardiogram or MRI to see what is going on. When she went to the hospital for the CHF, her BNP was 2700 and then it went to 3500. They gave her IV diuretics in the hospital but her BNP just went up and up. This was all on the same day she went to the ER, she spent 13 hours in the emergency room. They drew labs and cardiologics then. Patient got IV diuretics in the hospital, she believed it was Lasix or Furosemide. When she was discharged for the hospital at night on the 16th, her BNP was 518, so they let her go because the diuretics worked. The diuretic was change to oral Torsemide at her discharge. Investigations included chemistry, BNP, a blood count, a metabolic panel.; Sender's Comments: Based on temporal association, the causal relationship between BNT162B2 and the events, Cardiac failure congestive, gait disturbance, brain natriuretic peptide increased cannot be completely ruled out.

HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS Patient is a 56 y.o. female who presented to the Emergency Department due to chest pain. She has experienced this pain each evening for the past 3 evenings, and states that it starts in her right arm then migrates through her shoulder and across to her chest. The pain can last for anywhere from 5 minutes to 4 hours. This has come on at rest, but in the setting increased personal life stressors as well as uncontrolled hypertension. She states that she is normally on hydrochlorothiazide for hypertension, but ran out of this medication about a week ago. When she checked her blood pressure at home it was in the 230s/120s, therefore she presented to the emergency department locally. Her medical comorbidities are notable for poorly controlled hypertension, mixed hyperlipidemia that is untreated, current tobacco use (1-2 packs per day for 40 years), and medically complicated obesity. In the emergency department she was found to have mild polycythemia with hemoglobin of 15.2 and leukocytosis of 13.7. INR, D-dimer, and BMP were normal. High sensitivity troponin T was found to be 770 ng/L. ECG showed normal sinus rhythm with T-wave inversion in aVL that was not present on 08/25/2004. Chest x-ray was largely unremarkable. Her chest pain resolved, but given the elevated troponin ECG changes she was treated for NSTEMI with heparin infusion, and loaded with aspirin and clopidogrel and directly admitted to the Hospital Cardiology service. Upon arrival she remained free of chest pain but continued to have significant hypertension. I have reviewed and updated the following: Past Medical History, Family History, Social History, and Allergies. Current Outpatient Medications on File Prior to Encounter: hydrochlorothiazide (HYDRODIURIL) 25 mg tablet, Take 1 tablet (25 mg total) by mouth daily., Past Week at Unknown time; Lorazepam (ATIVAN) 0.5 mg tablet, Take 0.5 mg by mouth daily as needed for anxiety., More than a month at Unknown time. REVIEW OF SYSTEMS Pertinent items are noted in HPI; all other review of systems was negative. OBJECTIVE VITAL SIGNS Temperature: [36.8 °C-36.9 °C] 36.9 °C; Heart Rate: [83-117] 83; Resp Rate: [20-26] 22; Blood Pressure: (164-195)/(81-129) 164/106; SpO2:[92 %-97 %] 95 %;Weight: [104 kg-106 kg] 104 kg; Pulse Rate: [90-109] 94. PHYSICAL EXAM General: Alert, oriented, no acute distress; HEENT: Mucous membranes moist, JVP difficult to assess due to body habitus; CV: Regular rate and rhythm without murmur; Lungs: Clear to auscultation bilaterally; Abdomen: Obese, soft, nontender, nondistended, normoactive bowel sounds; Extremities: No peripheral edema appreciated; Neuro: No focal deficits appreciated. DIAGNOSTICS I have reviewed labs and imaging from the past 24 hours. ASSESSMENT / PLAN Patient is a 56 y.o. female who was directly admitted to the Cardiology Service from Emergency Department due to NSTEMI and poorly controlled hypertension. She also has untreated mixed hyperlipidemia and is a current smoker. We will continue to trend troponins and treat NSTEMI was heparin infusion, aspirin, and clopidogrel. I will start a statin and initiate low-dose lisinopril and carvedilol for blood pressure control with plans to up titrate as tolerated. I will update a lipid panel in checked for diabetes. I will obtain a TTE in the morning and keep her NPO for probable coronary angiogram pending negative COVID swab. #1 Non-ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction; #2 Poorly controlled systemic hypertension; #3 Mixed hyperlipidemia, previously untreated; #4 Medically complicated obesity (BMI 38-trend troponin- loaded with aspirin and clopidogrel- Aspirin 81 mg daily- clopidogrel 75 mg daily- moderate intensity heparin infusion- rosuvastatin 20 mg daily- lisinopril 2.5 mg daily, up titrate as tolerated- carvedilol 6.25 mg twice daily, up titrate as tolerated- holding home hydrochlorothiazide in lieu of lisinopril and carvedilol- lipid panel - hemoglobin A1c- TTE- NPO for probable angiogram (not-ordered)- cardiac rehab consult ordered;#5 Abuse Tobacco Smoking- nicotine patch- nicotine inhaler as needed- nicotine cessation consult; #6 Anxiety She is prescribed lorazepam 0.5 mg which she takes when she has a panic attack which only occurs a couple times per year. For now we will just monitor. Diet: NPO; Tubes/lines: PIV; VTE prophylaxis: heparin infusion; Code status: Full Code; Disposition: anticipate discharge to home when clinically stable. Counseling was provided face-to-face at bedside regarding the plan of care as stated above. I personally spent over half of a total 70 minutes in counseling and coordination of care as documented above. M.B.B.S. at 3/30/2021 10:58 AM Status: Signed. SUBJECTIVE HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS Patient is a very pleasant 56-year-old female who is owner of multiple nursing facilities who presented with chest pain and hypertensive emergency. She ran out of her hydrochlorothiazide last week, was fairly busy managing all her nursing homes with COVID pandemic and vaccination program. She was having intermittent chest pain, chest pressure radiating to the right arm. In this setting she checked her blood pressure, and it was noted to be 240 systolic over 140 diastolic. In this setting was sent to the ER and subsequently sent here. Initial troponin was 770. Subsequently, it went up to 1923. Delta was 862. ECG showed sinus rhythm with clear ST depression in the inferolateral leads. Patient currently is chest pain-free. She was initiated on carvedilol and restarted her home hydrochlorothiazide. Blood pressure is better. She had a good night's sleep. OBJECTIVE PHYSICAL EXAMINATION; Vital Signs: Noted.; General: Alert and oriented x3. Cardiac: S1, S2 normal.; Lungs: Clear.; Abdomen: Soft.; Extremities: No edema of feet.; Vessels: Peripheral pulses well-felt.; DIAGNOSTICS Creatinine is 0.7. Bicarb is 30. ASSESSMENT / PLAN Patient, is a 56-year-old female with obesity, hypertension, smoking, presented with hypertensive emergency. Blood pressure is better controlled now. She did have clear ST-T changes with troponin elevation, and we will treat it as NSTEMI at this point. Certainly, this can be demand ischemia in setting of hypertensive emergency, but she has multiple risk factors which would warrant coronary artery disease evaluation. We will plan for an angiogram today. We will get an echo today. Post that, we will reassess and see how things go. It appears that this was in setting of medication noncompliance. However, if this happens again, we may also look for other secondary causes of hypertension, especially with the fact that her bicarbonate was 30. All her questions were answered. DIAGNOSES: #1 Hypertensive emergency; #2 NSTEMI; #3 Obesity. M.B.B.S. DD: 03/30/2021 08:54:32 CT; DT: 03/30/2021 09:13:15 CT; Job ID: 914158020/mjb.

Slight headache that day (4/1). The next day (4/2), weakness in left leg and arm. On 4/3 went to ER, admitted to NeuroScience ICU. Diagnosed with small blood clot and small bleed in brain--- dural venous sinus thrombosis. The neurology team said this was very unusual and very rare in this part of brain--where the blood flows back to the heart from the brain. They did alot of tests on every part of my body looking for the cause and found nothing. They think it was vacine induced and repoted it to the CDC. Left leg and arm weakness remains with no changes yet. Now taking blood thinner and doing physical therapy

Resident was given the vaccine on 4/8/21. She had a stroke/heart attack when she was being taken to the bathroom on 4/13/21 around 8:30pm. She was admitted to the hospital and at this time I believe she is still hospitalized.

We talked with our Medical Director and thought it would be best to report this since it happened shortly after her first vaccine dose.

She got her vaccine in the left arm, and felt fine. She went shopping in the store and noticed that she was short winded when she was leaving, but felt that it was possibly asthma and left. She had a temperature between 102 and 103 for a couple of days and having fever and chills as well. She continued with the shortness windedness, and had company and on 5/9/21 they left and she started having severe pain, felt like it was either on the right side kidney or the lung, and was spasming horribly and knocking her down with the pain. She went to the ER and they did a CAT Scan thinking it was kidney stones, but told her that she had three blood clots in her lungs, lower base right and lower base left and mid right and part of her lung has apparently died due to this. They put her on blood thinners, Xarelto. She was admitted on 5/10 early morning and released on 5/12/21. The doctor in the hospital said that it did not make sense that she had blood clots in her lungs, but nothing in her legs. She told her that she was short winded, and he told her to report her reaction. Since being home she has been coughing a lot due to possibly the blood clots. She was told that she will be on the Xarelto for a very long time. She was also informed that she had lymph node enlargement as well.

Few days after receiving the vaccine around 4/25, my mother complained to me that she was feeling very weak and tired, she was unable to hold anything down. She also had a rash. She became weaker and weaker so suddenly and unable to even drink protein drinks. She finally went to the ER on 5/4 because she could barely walk, unable to eat anything and was short of breath. They diagnosed her with pneumonia and a possible lung mass. She was diagnosed simultaneously 10 days later with small cell lung cancer however she had no symptoms prior. She received first dose chemo on 5/20/21 and had a reaction to the chemo that the doctor stated was very rare. They then had to try a different type of chemo for second dose 2 days later. She progressively got worse suddenly after chemo dose #3 and was in renal failure the day following chemo completion. She died on 5/27/2021. Her primary death diagnosis was sepsis, pneumonia and small cell lung cancer. I am reporting this for my mother because the vaccine has not been tested on cancer or chemo patients. It can and should not be regarded as coincidental. It needs to be tracked in case there are future reports regarding cancer patients.

Immediately following the second dose, I had a lot of trouble with insomnia and nightmares that continued for almost 3 weeks. The nightmares stopped and even tho I am 9 years POST menopausal, I began bleeding again on April 28. Basically, it has only stopped for 3-4 days at a time in between. And I have been bleeding almost constantly ever since except for 10 days. I have had a uterine biopsy at Hospital. And Ultrasounds and there are no issues other than my uterine tissue is thicker than it should be. My joints are painful and enlarged too. That began at the beginning of May. I have had xrays and have been treated with steroids to get the tissue under control. I also am now experiencing Night Sweats and Hot flashes. Mayo doctors believe I need a hysterectomy or D&C to stop the bleeding issue.

This nurse reported different events for different vaccine doses for the same patient. This is one of the two reports. A 62-years-old female patient received dose 2 of BNT162B2 (Pfizer-BIONTECH COVID-19 Vaccine), via an unspecified route of administration on 08Jun2021 at 15:00 (Batch/Lot Number: EW1071) single; and dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration on 19May2021 (Batch/Lot Number: EW0183) single, for COVID-19 immunization. The patient's medical history was not reported. Concomitant medication included diphenhydramine hydrochloride (BENADRYL) taken for an unspecified indication from Jun2021 to 09Jun2021. It was reported that with the first Pfizer vaccine dose on 19May2021, she developed chills, had severe headache, feeling of ants crawling in her throat, and shooting pain in the calves and left calf shot down to the big toe, it was shooting pain, but both calves were involved. The patient experienced rash on 08Jun2021; anaphylactic reaction on 09Jun2021; severe headache, 'lymphadenopathy', 'neck pain', 'ear discomfort', 'swelling', 'ocular discomfort' on 09Jun2021 at 15:00; and bad flu in 2021. After what the patient experienced with the first vaccine dose, she was indicated to take Benadryl thirty minutes before the second vaccine. She was however told that it could mask potential side effects. Due to the masking potential, she stopped taking it and reported adverse events. The patient reported lymphadenopathy, headache, neck pain, feeling of the eye ball outward which lasted 1-4 days, and ear burning in ear drums. The patient stated that these (unspecified) stopped on Sunday. Stated that the headache was most severe. Also stated that "I thought a severe allergic reaction was like anaphylaxis". The patient was at another doctor's office and was indicated that she could also have had COVID that's why she had a severe allergic reaction. According to her, she had never been mask less, and was double masking. She works from home. Second vaccination was two weeks post. She could have possibly gotten it, bad flu, that would be the only time she could have. The patient had called on 09Jun2021 as she got her second dose of the Pfizer vaccine on 08Jun2021 and someone was supposed to call her back from the department, whoever handled Adverse Events, but no one ever returned the call or sent an email. She took the first Pfizer vaccine on 19May2021 and had severe headache, feeling of ants crawling in her throat, shooting pain in calves and left calf shot down to the big toe, it was shooting pain, but both calves were involved, and she had spoken to an employee health nurse, who suggested she take a Benadryl 30 minutes before the second vaccine. As they were concerned about the crawling in her throat, they feared anaphylactic reaction to the second, as people said the second was worse, and she called her doctor to confirm, who was also in agreement for her to take it. Her doctor said to take it and take it every 4-6 hours for the first 24 hours, and she had the vaccine on the 8th at around 3PM, and had a little reaction on her left forearm, of a rash. It lasted about 10 minutes and went away. At the vaccine site, they let her go, and she took the Benadryl twice more, her last dose was at 0130. On 09Jun2021, she called Pfizer, who said they don't recommend to take Benadryl, that it could be masking potential side effects that can lead to anaphylaxis, so she stopped taking her last dose at 0130, and at 3PM on the 9th, she had severe headache, neck pain, it appeared her neck was swollen, stated it was probably lymph nodes that were swollen to the back and side, she had burning in her eardrums, both ears, and she felt like the back of her eyeballs were poking, like to the front, like they would pop out of her eye (she thought that was the most predominant symptoms she had). It lasted for 3 days. She spoke to someone on 09Jun2021 in the morning. and stopped taking Benadryl, and they said she would get a call from Pfizer and she thought she would report those side effects after the second dose because they happened in the afternoon, and now she has a day off from work, so she thought to call and say what happened with the second dose. The patient stated that she works from home, but she was not clinical. Confirmed it was the COVID 19 Pfizer vaccine that she received. The severe headache started after 3PM on 09Jun 2021, it was not ongoing and it went away on Sunday, which the reporter provided as "12Jun2021" The patient stated that she has had intermittent headaches ever since, so has recovered with lasting effects, they are not as severe as the original, but she had some lasting effects. The patient was inquiring if she should receive a booster. According to the patient, they were talking about the potential of having to give boosters, and with everything she had been through with the first two (the second was worse than the first), she was ambivalent about getting the booster. Outcome of the event 'rash' was recovered on 08Jun2021; for 'lymphadenopathy', 'swelling', and 'ocular discomfort' was recovered on 10Jun2021; for 'neck pain' and 'ear discomfort' was recovered on 11Jun2021; for 'headache' was recovered with sequela on 12Jun2021; while for the other events was unknown. Seriousness criteria for the severe neck pain was reported as disabling; for the "burning in eardrums, both ears" was not serious; while for the initial headache, to the 12th was severely debilitating, she couldn't do anything, it was horrible, but the lasting effects were tolerable, she took Tylenol and it resolved. For the severe neck pain that ended in the morning and was no longer present (appeared neck was swollen: ended in the evening) seriousness was reported as just mild discomfort, not disabling. For the burning in eardrums that started in the evening, at hour of sleep, at night, was bilateral, burning, inner ear pain, and it was intermittent, and lasted until 11Jun2021, and she went to the ear doctor today, who said her eardrums were ok, but she was concerned, so this was reported as not serious. For the eyeballs poking that happened at the same time as burning eardrums, only at hour of sleep at night, and woke up on the 10th and it was gone, seriousness was reported that since it was intermittent, not disabling, but was annoying. Also stated that it was frightening, but she was worried if it continued, she would go to the eye doctor, but it went away. Causality for the events was reported as follows: severe headache: Yes (Related), severe neck pain: Yes (Related), "appeared neck was swollen, probably lymph nodes, swollen to the back and side": Yes (Related), burning in eardrums, both ears: Yes (Related), and "felt like the back of her eyeballs were poking, like to the front, like they would pop out of her eye": Yes (Related).; Sender's Comments: Linked Report(s) : US-PFIZER INC-2021677809 Same patient, same product, different events/vaccine dose

She got the vaccine on Dec 23, and then on Jan 4 she had a mild stroke with left sided arm and face weakness. She did recover fully. She already has known CAD and risk factors for CVD. It is possible, but by no means certain, that the vaccine was an indirect cause of the event. Since the vaccine provoked an immune response, as it was supposed to, it is possible that this inflammation may have set up a metabolic predisposition that may have contributed to the event, which was 12 days later.

Upon discharge, they told her not to receive any further covid vaccines- she cannot get her second one which was scheduled for 01Apr2021. She started experiencing the really cold feeling on 12Mar2021 after receiving the vaccine. She went to bed at 7, that's not like her, she was usually up all hours of the night. symptoms she was experiencing were beyond typical. patient reports she also felt dizzy and weak on 13Mar2021. She thought she was going to die because of the purple toes in 2021- she knew that was a sign of her body shutting down and she got the most scared. patient mentions she is experiencing a residual side effect from the covid and influenza tests-both were negative on 13Mar2021, but it seems like her nose won't stop running ever since she got it, sore from blowing- looks like Rudolph in 2021. patient reports she feels human today, but she is still sleepy in 2021. She thinks she would feel a whole lot better if her nose stopped running. The tiredness might be from nose blowing and stuff. patient remembers the nurse was thrilled that her toes weren't purple anymore. It started going away when her blood pressure and everything came back up. patient states that she was so scared that she was dying so she remembers everything that happened. patient remembers she was in the ER still when her blood pressure improved. Treatment for her face was so red like the rough sunburn feeling and putting moisturizer on the dried cheeks. patient reports that she doesn't see any patches of red on her. Part of her has a fear that the stuff is not totally out of her system and it will happen again. patient mentions she has heard comments that this was not a typical reaction from the first one and wants to know if it is typical to be that sick from the first dose. patient reports that now her eyes just feel like she's allergic to something. She doesn't know if the redness is from crying now- it was improving, but was still there. Husband has Parkinson's and Frontal lobe dementia and she is his caregiver, she cannot afford to get Covid, she wants to get back to normal. patient reports that she did not take any of her prescriptions the day of the vaccine, she did not want to get a reaction. patient reports she had her shoulder- torn rotator cuff-operated on in 2018. If nose is really stuffed up or allergies, or Fluticasone nasal spray- she can take it 2 times a day, 2 squirts in each nostril, take it as needed. patient reports that she has the worst sinuses- when it gets too bad, she'll go to the doctor and she'll prescribe Flonase, take Metamucil or whatever she thinks will help with sinuses. she still wants to get the second vaccine. patient reports her creatinine came down well enough that she could come home from the hospital, it was still high on 15Mar2021 so they told her to drink lots of water so she does not get dehydrated. Patient was hospitalized from 13Mar2021 to 15Mar2021 for Anaphylaxis, Tiredness, Nauseated, Morning sickness, Vomited, Activities of daily living impaired, Walking difficulty, Flu like symptoms, Pale, Photosensitive rash, Asthenia, Dizziness, Charley horse, Dehydration, Renal disorder, Creatinine low, Cold, Diarrhea, Purple toes syndrome, Blood pressure low, Redness of eyelid, Eyelids itchy sensation of, Swollen eyelid.

She specified these adverse reactions are all gone now but her arm is still "a little sore" and she has one area with a "big circle around it and it's hard". She said it could be "swelling".

Pre-Diabetic: They have been watching that for a while. Stated she gets edema, swelling in her legs, well, all the time. She has had this the last two years because she is pre-diabetic and a lot of overweight people have that. She also has varicose veins so that doesn't help.

The patient was recovering from arm was sore and achy/her arm started aching, swelling/her arm is swelling and for other events it was recovering.

has possible atrial fibrillation; Arm would get hurt; her arm felt like a bruise; irregular heart rates; She'll have a slight cough and she feels a little short of breath then she's fine. That happened leaving the Covid 19 vaccine site. And it's been happening more at night.; When probing for specific event information she reports it's kind of like she coughs a little more and she is a little more short of breath and it's happening more often; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 63-year-old female patient received the first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), at the age of 63 years, via an unspecified route of administration on 27Mar2021 04:06 (Batch/Lot number was not reported) as a single dose for covid-19 immunization. The patient's medical history included asthma, hysterectomy, dark chocolate or red dye (she starts coughing and has an allergic reaction and shortness of breath), bursitis (in her right). The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. The patient previously took penicillin, experienced allergy and had really ad hives (several years ago) she was given a cream to put on. She had to get another medication and she doesn't remember the name. That medication made her dizzy and she couldn't even get out of bed so they had to half the dosage. When she had her hysterectomy she learned she couldn't take any types of "cillins" medications. The patient had been watching her heart rate with a device and since getting the Covid 19 vaccine she's noticed her heartrate was always higher than it normally is. Her heartrate was going crazy, the device was not recording right. She reports that for the last 2 days the device has been telling her she has possible atrial fibrillation. This is worrying her. She doesn't feel anything different. She was usually hyper. Her resting heartrate was higher. Normally her resting heartrate was in the 80s (beats per minute) Now it's going up to the 90s (beats per minute) then her heartrate drops to 40 something (beats per minute) Then the device said her heartrate was 118 and 107 and she's not even doing anything. She hasn't even worked out yet. She doesn't like to take medicine. Medications don't work out with her. She had a slight cough and she feels a little short of breath then she's fine. That happened leaving the Covid 19 vaccine site. And it's been happening more at night. It was reported that she feels fine. She has no other symptoms. She's been reporting online. Clarified she's reporting online through the V check through the CDC. She's been trying to get the Covid 19 vaccine forever. She did research on all the Covid vaccines and she felt more confident with the Pfizer Covid 19 vaccine. Her daughter was against the Covid 19 vaccine. Her daughter thinks the vaccine was just going to kill her. She reports she was healthy and she works out 6 days a week. She recently tried to get a CT scan for her heart. Her husband's cardiologist recommended her husband have a CT scan of his heart and she decided she needed a CT scan too. She's also watching her heartrate on her watch. Her husband's heartrate is completely normal and stable on the device so she knows the device isn't messed up. It was also reported that the device will tell her she has too much muscle movement and she's standing completely still. Then she'll get the device to record her heart rhythm and it goes sporadic. The device tells her 90 beats per minute at resting then over 100 beats per minute. Her heartrate on the device was going up and down a lot. When she's been watching the device record her heart, it looks like it's going crazy. Her heartrate goes way up and way down like in the 40s (beats per minute) She noticed when her heartrate is in the 40s (beats per minute) and she's never had her heartrate go down that far, it's really really weird. She thinks maybe she'll get back to normal. She keeps watching hear heartrate. She reports she noticed her heartrate right away on Saturday evening after she received the Covid 19 vaccine. Her heartrate was higher than normal for resting, it was in the 90s (beats per minute). Her resting heartrate is usually in the 60-80s (beats per minute) and it was the in 90s. Now the device says possible atrial fibrillation. It was further reported that she received the Covid 19 vaccine in her left arm because she has bursitis in her right. If she hit her arm the second day after the Covid 19 vaccine, her arm would hurt. Her arm felt better the next day. She clarifies, on Sunday, 28Mar2021, she noticed her arm felt like a bruise and that was it. Then the next day on Monday, 29Mar2021, the feeling was gone. She didn't have any redness. The outcome of the events her arm felt like a bruise and arm would get hurt was recovered on 29Mar2021, irregular heart rates, dyspnea, cough was not recovered and unknown outcome for has possible atrial fibrillation. Information on the lot/batch number has been requested.

Stated that she did not take it everyday because she was allergic to it; and sitagliptin (JANUVIA [SITAGLIPTIN]) taken for diabetes from an unspecified start date and ongoing and stated that she has been taking for quite a while. On 24Feb2021 she had her second shot. She said that everything was fine that morning; that afternoon her arm was sore. Stated she thought nothing of it. That evening she entertained guest. They were saying she sounded different; they said her speech sounded slurred. She had gotten her vaccine at around 08:00. Again, she didn't think anything about her speech. On 25Feb2021, she got up and did some laundry going up and down the steps. Stated that it was difficult because her arm was still sore. She cleaned the house. At around 15:30 she was doing bills and noticed that her writing looked like a baby's scribble. On 26Feb2021, she noticed that her left arm was weak and was told by her doctor to go to the Emergency Room where they told her she had a stroke. She added that it seemed like her arm was cold for a number of weeks. Stated she was the type to wear t-shirts in the winter because she was always hot. During those weeks she was wearing heavy clothes and was under blankets. She was just now starting to feel more like herself and not so cold all the time. The patient was unable to recall time frame when this symptom began. The events did require a visit to emergency room and physician office. The patient was hospitalized for 4 days due to the events from 26Feb2021 to 01Mar2021. During hospitalization, the patient saw a cardiologist, neurologist, her primary care provider, and the hospitalists who all said it was very suspicious that her stroke happened right after her vaccine. Before she got her second vaccine, she was doing embroidery and everything she normally does; nothing was wrong. They did a CAT Scan that showed nothing. Then the MRI of the brain showed a Pontine Stroke on 26Feb2021. Cardiologist put a heart monitor on her and could not find anything. They were looking for A-Fib or something like that when she was on the heart monitor in the hospital; but it never showed anything irregular. She had a loop recorder implanted to monitor her heart and they haven't found anything wrong on it. She had heart tests, carotid artery tests, ultrasound of her heart and nothing was found on those tests. They pretty much told her in the hospital that they couldn't find a reason for her stroke. She kept asking about the vaccine. They did not rule it out as a cause, but they also did not say it was the cause. All the doctors said they could not pin her stroke on the vaccine. They stated it was suspicious and that they had seen 2-3 other patients with a similar situation. One of the doctor's told her he would not rule it out. They did an ultrasound of her carotids and heart and did not find anything on those tests that would have caused her stroke. She was having lasting effects related to her stroke. Her arm was still sore at times, stated it was a different kind of sore and could be related to all the therapy she does now. The lingering effects after stroke was reported as she was not able to walk at first. She's been doing therapy focused on her left side. Stated that her left side was the dominant side and she cannot write or type. She couldn't do the report online due to the difficulty with typing. She wanted to make sure this was reported. The patient has been doing therapy for 7 weeks, twice a day; and stated she likely still has months more of therapy to try and get her left side back to normal. She said that simple daily duties are difficult. The patient also stated that she was prediabetic before her hospitalization with her number (A1c) usually being 6.5-6.8. She added that when she was in the hospital it was 7.4. She doesn't know what made it go up. Then states she doesn't know if the vaccine made it go up or not. She has a follow up with the neurologist soon. The patient also reported medications she has been taking since her stroke and hospitalization; but not prior to her vaccine which included Amlodipine-Benazepril: 5-20mg once a day and Aspirin: 325mg once a day. The patient stated that stroke and heart problems do not run in her family. The outcome of the events was unknown.

incredibly horrible itching under her Fitbit; whelp; her lips had started swelling; her tongue was tingling; she thinks that it was the beginning of anaphylactic reaction; she was just tired; type 1 hypersensitivity; a little soreness; It was like heaviness on her chest; having trouble breathing; allergic contact dermatitis; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient) and a physician. A 63-year-old female patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in arm left on 14Apr2021 10:00 (lot number: EP7533) as SINGLE DOSE for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included ongoing nickel allergy for decades which was under control and panic attacks. There were no concomitant medications. The patient did not receive any other vaccines within 4 weeks prior to the COVID vaccine. On 14Apr2021, it was reported that the patient didn't have any of the normal side effects such as fevers or chills but she was just tired and went to sleep early that night. She woke up on 15Apr2021 at 05:00 with incredibly horrible itching under her Fitbit that she wears to bed. She has a history of nickel allergy and she bought this particular Fitbit on purpose because it doesn't have any nickel in it that touches her skin and she has had no problems all year with the Fitbit. The itching was unbelievably bad and when she took the Fitbit off she had a horrible whelp under a tiny piece of metal that isn't even supposed to touch her skin. She thought well if it has exacerbated her nickel allergy then maybe it is doing something else to her body. On that day (15Apr2021), she thought that she had a panic attack and upon reading some information online, she thinks that it was the beginning of anaphylactic reaction because the symptoms are the same. She was thinking that the vaccine is doing something with her nickel allergy. It had used to be bad until she got it under control and she had it under control for many years. But with the things under the Fitbit she was blaming or associating it with the COVID vaccine so she took it off and then finally fell asleep again. But when she woke up in the morning, just a few hours later (15Apr2021), the bad whelp was still there and then her lips had started swelling and her tongue was tingling so she decided to look some more on google and she thinks that this is another version to an allergic reaction. She has had panic attacks before and she knows what they are now and she has learned through a therapist on how to get past and manage them but this was different for her. It was like heaviness on her chest and it felt like something was on top of her chest and she was having trouble breathing; both on an unspecified date in 2021. Her husband knows when she has a panic attack but this one was different she can't really explain it. She asks, what is the difference between a panic attack breathing and this type of breathing and later mentioned that she also had a little soreness (2021). In addition, the physician also called to report that this patient was complaining about 2 types of symptoms. The first was more an allergic contact dermatitis (2021) which the physician is not worried about. The second was lip swelling and tongue tingling which could be a type 1 hypersensitivity (2021). The physician is more concerned about the latter and would like to know if it is okay to pre-medicate the patient with Benadryl before getting the second dose. The outcome of the event 'she was just tired' was recovered on 14Apr2021; incredibly horrible itching under her Fitbit; whelp was recovering; her lips had started swelling and her tongue was tingling was recovered on 15Apr2021. The outcome of the other events was unknown.

After they saw me again, I got another EpiPen in my leg. I started shaking uncontrollably again. They injected me in my right arm to calm down the reactions. I was kept there till 9pm that day.

In beginning of March 2021, noticed blood pressure was elevated. My physician changed my medication one in the afternoon and one in the morning, but after I had the second vaccine she adjusted my medication dosage up. In the middle of March my blood pressure suddenly dropped, and I went to the ER, they did cardiogram levels, EKG, chest x-rays, echocardiogram, kept me over night, because they thought I might have had a stroke, but I did not. I believe that it was the change in my blood pressure medication. My blood pressure elevation went up to 180 for diastolic and was running between 120 or 140 with my blood pressure medication. In April 2021, I started feeling I was getting a cold, went to a clinic, saw a NP gave me medication and four days later I went again to the ER. On 04-21-2021 at the ER, all exams were repeated, EKG?s, found I had bilateral pneumonia, heart blockage. I am a nurse scientist, I think they survey is not written correctly, my opinion, the instructions should be clearer to any person reporting an symptoms.

Her INR was 5.8 (normal range 1 to 2)/increasing INR; Scratched arm; Scratched arm and bled through 3 shirts, it kept bleeding; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable nurse (patient). A 64-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) (lot number EC1284), via an unspecified route of administration administered to left arm/deltoid on 29Dec2020 13:15 at single dose for COVID-19 immunization at a research medical facility; and received warfarin sodium (COUMADIN, strength 2 mg), oral (by mouth) from an unspecified date in 2017 and ongoing at "3 1/2 tablets once daily in the evening at 5:30pm (total 7mg)" for metal heart valve. The patient's medical history included had the surgery (for her metal heart valve), about 01Mar in 2017 (about 4 years ago) and so she thought she had been on Coumadin for about 4 years, had been on the 7mg dose for over a year; and has a history of metal heart valve and takes Coumadin for the metal heart valve. Denied illness. Denied family medical history relevant to event. There were no concomitant medications. The patient previously received Shingrix vaccine in past and remenbered she had the usual side effects from it, had mild symptoms. History of all previous immunization with the Pfizer vaccine considered as suspect was none. The patient did not receive any other vaccines the same date of the Pfizer Suspect or 4 weeks prior. On Jan2021, the patient experienced scratched arm and bled through 3 shirts, it kept bleeding. On 04Jan2021, her international normalised ratio (INR) was 5.8 (normal range 1 to 2). The events did not lead to emergency room visit, however led to physician office visit. The events were reported as serious medically significant. The nurse got the first Pfizer COVID-19 shot on 29Dec2020 because she is a healthcare provider. She wanted information on increasing INR. The nurse has a history of metal heart valve and takes Coumadin. Her INR was typically 1.7 to 2.3. She reported her last INR, before the covid-19 vaccine was given, was "some time ago" but it had not varied much over the years. Normally she got her INR run and it was about 2. She had to be scheduled for her INR on the 04Jan2021 and it was 5.8 (normal range 1 to 2) and they asked about anything that may have changed and the only thing was that she got her first shot. The nurse reported not having any changes in her medications, food, or life style to account for the change, other than receiving the COVID-19 vaccine. The patient stated that it could be a serious problem if she had an accident or fell and started bleeding. A normal person's lab result is between 1 and 2, but they like to keep people with the metal heart valves between 2 and 3. She had been bleeding. She had barely scratched her arm the other day and went through 3 shirts because she kept bleeding. This is more than unusual for her, it's kind of unusual. Getting the vaccine is the only variant she has had since getting her last INR. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included INR (normal range 1 to 2): typically 1.7 to 2.3 on an unspecified date; it's about 2 on an unspecified date: and 5.8 on 04Jan2021. The action taken in response to the events for warfarin sodium was dose not changed. The outcome of the event INR was 5.8 was not recovered, for the other events was unknown. The nurse (patient) assessed the event "INR was 5.8; it's normally about 2" as related to the COVID-19 vaccine.; Sender's Comments: Based on available information, a possible contributory role of the subject product, BNT162B2 vaccine, cannot be excluded for the reported events of International normalised ratio increased and wound hemorrhage due to temporal relationship. There is limited information provided in this report. Additional information is needed to better assess the case, including complete medical history, diagnostics coagulation panel, counteractive treatment measures and concomitant medications. This case will be reassessed once additional information is available.

COVID- 19 Vaccine. She was experiencing chest tightness, SOB, and dizziness. 50mg of Benadryl and 20mg of famotidine was administered around 1410. Patient was still experiencing chest tightness and was having difficulty breathing. 0.3mg of epinephrine was administered at 1420. EMS was called. Breathing improved. Pulse ox 100%, HR 68, BP 130/89. EMS arrived and assumed patient care. Pt seen in Emergency Room 1/16/2021 1513 CHIEF COMPLAINT: reaction to COVID vaccine HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: Patient is a 64y F with PMHx significant for Myopericarditis, Anxiety and HTN who presents to ER after developing tongue swelling, wheezing, tunneled vision and shortness of breath. Patient states that she was getting first shot of COVID19 Pfizer vaccine at 2:00 pm. After getting vaccine she waited 15 minutes like she was told and recalls room getting very hot at approximately 6 minutes after getting vaccine. She also states that her tongue felt swollen. She then noticed her vision started to turn dark and then she felt dizzy. She told pharmacist about symptoms and then she was given one pill of Benadryl. This did not help and actually made her symptoms worse. She recalls wheezing. She was given another pill of what she believes was Benadryl. She also recalls pharmacist measured her BP and her husband, who was present, reported that her blood pressure was in the 140s This did not improve so she was given 0.3mg IM epinephrine shot. This significantly improved her symptoms. However, she was sent to ER. She denies any hx of recent UTI or GI infection. She denies fevers, chills, nausea, diarrhea, chest pain, generalized itching, vomiting, abdominal pain, generalized swelling, headache or syncopal episode. She denies any past reactions to vaccines. She denies current SOB and feels like her symptoms resolved. Denies hx of COPD or asthma. Physical exam did not show any recurrent signs of wheezing or tongue edema. Her SaO2 was 100% on RA and BP was within baseline 140-160s. Given episode, we decided to obtain tryptase levels. We also observe patient to ensure she did not have any recurrence of symptoms. She remained hemodynamically stable and SaO2 remained in mid 90s to 100. She was given a rx for epinephrine pen should symptoms recur though this is highly unlikely as she remained stable throughout ER stay. She was also given instructions to pick up OTC Benadryl and Pepcid. She does have antihistamines listed as an allergy but patient states that she gets tachycardic upon taking tabs, so this could just be a side effect. We will follow up with tryptase levels but even if tryptase levels return as normal, it does not mean she did not have an anaphylactic reaction to vaccine. Her clinical picture puts this diagnosis high in the differential. Teaching and instructions were given to patient and her husband. She was advised to return to ER if symptoms recur.

Anaphylaxis; SOB (shortness of breath)/ difficulty breathing; Chest tightness; dizziness; Wheezing; Anxiety attack; Medication-induced allergic reaction; Blood pressure (BP) increased for 130/89; This is a spontaneous report received from a contactable pharmacist. A 64-year-old female patient (not pregnant) received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE; Solution for injection; Lot number: EL3249), intramuscular on left arm on 16Jan2021 at single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included HTN (hypertension), mopericarditis, anxiety and allergy to antihistamine tabs. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. It was reported that, the patient was experiencing chest tightness, SOB (shortness of breath), and dizziness on 16Jan2021. 50 mg of Benadryl and 20 mg of famotidine was administered around 14:10. Patient was still experiencing chest tightness and was having difficulty breathing. 0.3 mg of epinephrine was administered at 14:20. EMS was called. Breathing improved. Pulse Ox 100%, HR (heart rate): 68, blood pressure (BP) increased for 130/89. EMS arrived and assumed patient care. ED COURSE: Patient was seen and examined with doctor. Patient developed of SOB, dizziness, wheezing after receiving first shot of Pfizer COVID vaccine. She received Benadryl upon development of symptoms, which actually made them worse given her allergy to antihistamine tabs, but her symptoms improved upon administration of 0.3 IM epinephrine shot. Differential diagnoses include but were not limited to anaphylaxis, anxiety attack, medication-induced allergic reaction on 16Jan2021. The patient did not receive any other vaccines within 4 weeks prior to the COVID vaccine. It was unknown whether the patient received any other medications within 2 weeks of vaccination. The patient visited emergency room/ department or urgent care due to the events. The patient was not diagnosed with COVID-19 prior to vaccination. It was unknown whether the patient has been tested for COVID-19, since the vaccination. The events were assessed as non-serious by the reporter. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of events. The outcome of the events was reported as recovered on an unspecified date in Jan2021.; Sender's Comments: Based on the information provided and temporal relationship, a causal association between BNT162B2 and the reported events cannot be completely excluded.

Patient only called the doctor and would have had to go in today if the fibrillation did not stop.

The patient was a healthcare worker and she has had friends who have died from covid. The patient had no previous immunization with the Pfizer vaccine considered as suspect and no additional vaccines administered on same date of the Pfizer suspect. Patient had no prior vaccinations (within 4 weeks). The patient stated she had the first dose of the vaccine and had a TIA (Apr2021) and rupture of a blood vessel in her eye 20Mar2021. The TIA was on Monday (Apr2021) and she was supposed to have her second dose tomorrow (09Apr2021). She stated she may get it but she is not taking it tomorrow because she is still having residual symptoms. She asked what the length of time she can wait to get it before she has to restart. Patient reported that after she got her first vaccine she had a ruptured blood vessel in her eye the next day (20Mar2021). She put warm and cool compresses on her eye then the ruptured blood vessel subsided. The ruptured blood vessel came back again a few days later and this time it was the entire sclera. She developed blood clots in her eye and the doctor said it probably wasn't from the vaccine (Mar2021). She was supposed to get her second dose of the vaccine tomorrow 09Apr2021 but she was going to hold off for now. She then had a TIA (Mar2021) and became hospitalized because of it from 06Apr2021 to 07Apr2021. The patient has ongoing atrial fibrillation but has been taking her medication religiously. She believed that the TIA was from the vaccine as there was no explanation as to why it happened.

Then that Friday, 25Mar2021, the patient's sclera looked like her eye was bleeding and her pupil started turning a different color. Then last Monday (Apr2021), the patient woke up and her right arm, the right side of her face, and her right knee were numb she got up and went to see if she had a facial droop and did not. The patient thought it was from her sleeping wrong, but these symptoms did not go away. The patient went to the Emergency Room where they did a CT of her head and neck, with and without contrast which was negative.

The only deficit that the patient has now is sensational loss in her right hand (Apr2021) and that should improve per the occupational therapist at the hospital. The caller was supposed to get the second dose of the vaccine on 09Apr2021 but she doesn't want to take it while she is having these symptoms. Results of tests and procedures for investigation of the patient included: head ct with and without contrast: negative on 06Apr2021; MRI brain: negative on 06Apr2021; Echocardiogram: negative on 07Apr2021; speech evaluation: passed on 07Apr2021.

my auntie, who was trying to be supportive and to get vaccinated just passed away like this is not worse it. My auntie, passed away the next two days after she got her Pfizer Covid vaccine. My auntie, who is 65 years old, got her Pfizer vaccine the the morning of April 22 2021. She told us he was completely find on the day of the vaccine. But the next morning around 9 am, she told us she has severe abdominal pain, has the need to have a bowel movement, but she was defecated. She also told us that she vomit couple times already, then she has no more energy to talk. She got into the hospital and she was announced right after midnight at 12:04 April 25th. The reported death reason is due to Bowel Ischemia with Perforation and it has nothing to do with Pfizer vaccine that she got. But I believe it is her post Pfizer covid vaccine reaction that result in Bowel Ischemia with Perforation. My auntie lived with a very healthy life style. She walked every morning, and has a shorter walk in the evening. She has no blood pressure, no blood sugar, everything is fine with her medical check. My auntie had a kidney transplant 20+ years ago and she is on the track for monthly doctor visit. When she asked her general doctor if she could get the vaccine, her general doctor asked her to consult her kidney doctor. She then went to ask her kidney doctor and her kidney doctor call her general doctor to discuss her health conditions. Both of her doctor decided that she could take the vaccine and one of the doctor registered her for the vaccine on April 15 2021. The she nurse told her to came in for vaccine on Apr 22, and she is now death after the Pfizer vaccine. I only read about people with recent organ transplant is not recommended to take the Covid vaccine. But there is no information about people that ever had kidney transplant shouldn?t take the vaccine. My auntie, who was trying to be supportive and to get vaccinated just passed away like this is not worse it without a clear explanation. I would like you to contact health department to follow up on this case and find out the real root cause. If the vaccine is not recommended for people that ever got kidney transplant, CDC should publish the information so that there won?t be more victims. Please take necessary action ASAP. Thank you!

A 64-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration, at age 64 years, administered in left arm on 05Apr2021 10:30 (Batch/Lot Number: ER8734) as single dose, for COVID-19 immunization, in order to go back to normal, without a mask so she was told she had to have one. Medical history included hysterectomy, anxiety, disorder in thyroid and cholesterol. Patient had family history of dementia, had to stay home and take care of her mom who is a heart patient and has dementia. Patient had no history of previous immunizations. Patient's concomitant medication includes unspecified medications one is for thyroid, one is for cholesterol and the other 2 are for anxiety. Patient had no prior vaccinations within 4 weeks. No additional vaccines administered on the same date. Patient's symptoms started with a headache the morning after the shot (05Apr2021), was on and off for a couple of days, lasted 3 days or so for a couple days and she took paracetamol (TYLENOL). On 09Apr2021, Friday morning, patient woke up so nauseous she couldn't hold anything down. It was just bile coming up, and she had severe diarrhea and so sick vomiting that wouldn't stop, stomach pain, couldn't hold her own weight up. She got medication at a walk in clinic and that didn't stop it. She started out at acute/urgent care, where she was taken by her daughter on Sunday, 11Apr2021, because she was feeling so bad and was tested for COVID and they said if it does not get better to go to the Emergency Room and she continued having problems. It was not COVID. They said she was dehydrated and send her home to push fluids and drink Pedialyte. Monday or Tuesday (Apr2021) she was in the ER all night (she does not remember the day because all of her days are mixed up). They did CAT scans on her abdomen and ran blood work. They didn't see anything in her abdomen. Her white blood cell count and kidney and liver function were all elevated and they said it was from being dehydrated from diarrhea and vomiting. They gave her fluids and sent her home. Within another 48 hours she still had vomiting and diarrhea, it was a clear bile and a sharp pain in her side. Her stools were dark tarry stringy stuff so she went back to the ER and waited in the lobby for 9 hours. In that 9 hours as she was waiting, she felt like she had to go to the bathroom. She was then wheeled into the bathroom and started passing blood. It wasn't coming from the urethra. It must have come form the vagina, she doesn't have a uterus. There were clots. She started passing blood in her urine but most was in the vaginal area but she has already had a hysterectomy. She was passing clots and her doctor who works in the healthcare field looked at it and said they were clots. Very shortly after, she passed the clot and the pain went away. The pain was passing clots/were clots/in the vaginal area at one point went away but she still have nausea and diarrhea and they gave her more fluids and sent her home. They didn't really want to address the vaginal bleeding. Patient have not been back and was not sure if she is still dehydrated. Patient was still pushing fluids and still not back to normal. Patient's daughter told her that since it was 5 days later it was not a reaction. Patient was thinking maybe it was an allergic internal severe reaction. Patient was weighing 130 pounds but lost about 4 pounds during this illness, so 4 pounds lighter. She stated her daughter-in-law was doing research and found a blog and there are woman the caller's age complaining of these symptoms (unexplained bleeding) after the vaccine. She asked if this was from the vaccine. She stated she was so sick that if there is even a chance then she doesn't want the second dose. She asked if this is a coincidence or has it been reported. She stated she is trying to make a decision on if she should get the second dose because she heard other people have symptoms and take the second shot. The outcome of the events passing clots/were clots/in the vaginal area, headache, a sharp pain in her side, passing blood in her urine, passing clots/were clots/in the vaginal area/vaginal bleeding was recovered on Apr2021, while for the other events, it was unknown.

Extreme go.lying and nausea, dehydration, couldn't keep down medicines, went into altered state, kidney failure heart and was in Hospital for March 31 - April 7, was not conscious until.April 5th. Some dr blamed it on the morphine but have had past unconscious hospitalization when sudden withdrawal from gabapentin which resulted from vomiting. Have never had problem with heart kidneys or lungs before this. Was given (medication) three times but it didn't bring me back to normal. As for level of morphine sudden stoppage of gabapetin CA affect the levels in blood. I was told not to get the second vaccine but not one dr in hospital seemed to want to report this and I don't think its right. I am going to have bill from being in intensive care and who knows what this will cost me.

She could not think of the name. The drug was supposed to promote bone growth and keep her from getting osteoporosis); menopausal (because of chemo she started menopause at 42); vulvar lichen sclerosus; filamentary keratosis from 2015 and ongoing (this was since either Feb 2015 or Mar 2015); kidney cysts(one is benign and one is being watched); liver hepatic hemangioma; allergies (Allergies to aspirin, penicillin, dextrose IV, Biaxin, Levaquin, Cipro, band-aid adhesive, zofran, sulfa topical. The sulfa is a topical as opposed to being the sulpha with a ph.); adeno conjunctivitis from Jan2015 and ongoing (she had a really bad case of this in JAN 2015 and had to quarantine for three weeks. She lost her vision, she could not see for three days. She got a fever. It left her with a filament thing. It is just delightful. It is viral and really bad. She got it at her eye doctors office when she was there for an annual visit. She sometimes had to go there 3 times to have filament growing on her eye scrubbed off. It is wicked painful. It is quite an adventure.); she used to be three quarters but she shrunk a little; has been a couch potato for a year, it comes with the territory with lockdown and being depressed; she is immunocompromised and catches many things and is high risk She feels like a sitting duck; had issues on her palm of hands; had issues on her breasts, and chest; and various problems. Family Medical History Relevant to adverse events was none. No other vaccinations within four weeks prior to the first administration date of the suspect vaccine. No other vaccines administered on same date with the Pfizer vaccine considered as suspect. Concomitant medications included vitamin b complex (B-COMPLEX 100) 100 as dose did not clarify units, has been on for years; hydroxyzine embonate (HYDROXYZINE PAM) Dosage 25 mg, she did not remember indication, may be allergies, if she is around a cat, she takes it prophylactically; acetylsalicylic acid (ASPIRIN) low strength, 81 mg twice a week, has been on for decades, nephrologist put her on it in the 90's and She did not remember why, he said it preserves kidney function or it is good for overall health; pentoxifylline ongoing at 400 mg, 3 a day, she has been on for years, her vascular doctor prescribed; prednisone dosage:1 mg, she takes and alternates between 6 and 7 mg, If she takes lower than that, she is a "narcoleptic" (as reported, did not clarify); rosuvastatin Dosage:10 mg, frequency not specified, it is a nightly thing; fish oil (SUPER OMEGA 3) overall supplement that was suggested by former nephrologist at some point some; estradiol (YUVAFEM) Dosage:10 micrograms for menopause, vaginal dryness; there was no variable in her medication routine, she is on a long list of medications (she could not remember, one was blood pressure, with the last administration she was worked up and her blood pressure would not come down, she also takes Tylenol as needed), she provided the details as she knows them, but did not know full details for all of her medications. There was nothing new to her routine except like when Prilosec was taken off the market, she got a different medication for it. She has been on all of these for long term maintenance. Historical vaccine included bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 MRNA VACCINE), dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 19MAR2021 (at the age of 64-year-old)(Batch/Lot Number: ER2613) for covid-19 vaccination, adverse events following prior vaccinations: none; and flu vaccine for immunization in last fall, 2020. She has a history of obscure side effects to medication, things that people have never heard of and she is the 1 in a million that has ever had these problems. The patient previously took ondansetron (ZOFRAN), ("a chemotherapy treatment", given before chemotherapy), which gave her a homicidal migraine and they had to give her ice packs for her head; 9 rounds of "Cytox" (Cytoxin or Cytoxan) she was not sure how this was spelled, and chemotherapy (9 rounds of chemo); azathioprine (IMURAN), she does not know if it was spelled Immuran or Imuran; prednisone a number of years and she said to her rheumatologist, "it did not make sense on an intellectual basis that the prednisone being effective in her body as it was once" and he said he would give her IMURAN which is given to kidney patients to cause less of a reaction with the organ, and patient mentioned she had barely an immune system after all these years on prednisone, she went through 3 rounds of steroids; Heparin IV, which made her arm feel on fire on the inside, which they would not give her a flush when she had IV treatment; Dextrose IV made her skin feel hot and itchy, her mouth felt like she put something in that had been soaking in rubbing alcohol; ciprofloxacin (reported as "Cipro"), she had a bad reaction to Cipro, she was given after she was bit by a dog on her calves, she knew it was attached to and is "hurting her calves the rest of her life/the podiatrist said if it has not gone away, she is kind of stuck" (as reported, not specified). The patient just wanted to give Pfizer a full picture of what she was dealing with and she is an unusual case. She added that chemo was in the 90s and that is when all of the medication reactions she mentioned were. She absolutely does not have any of the information about the products she mentioned she had previous reactions to. Every time they did "this", it "hurt" and she asked them not to do it anymore. She asked them to not do dextrose anymore with the chemo because it feels like it is on fire, and she asked them to mix it with saline. She did not have any additional information, did not have the NDC, LOT, expiration date, or manufacturer for any of these medications she reported historical adverse events on. The patient reported that she got her 2nd shot of the Pfizer covid vaccine on 09Apr2021. She has soreness at the site, more-so several hours after getting the vaccine (09Apr2021). Just her arm felt sore within moments after the second vaccine, but she did not get this after the first. She rested and took it easy that weekend. There was Sore, Tired, general lethargy, and fatigue (Apr2021): when she looked online, it really only told her what everyone knows about that you might be sore and tired and she had all that, she thought she was through with all of that. She had no chills, just general lethargy and fatigue. She was sluggish and tired and not herself that weekend (Apr 2021). She stayed home so it is difficulty to say. Her arm was definitely sore. For sluggishness and fatigue, she said that she has been a couch potato for a year, it comes with the territory with lockdown and being depressed, so it is difficult to decide if it is health or physically induced or a emotional base. She did not knowingly spike a fever, no chills or sweats. And on Monday (did not clarify dates but states it was Monday after 09APR2021, throughout the weekend she took it easy), she noticed with her foot, she had difficulty getting out of bed could not put weight on her right foot. She was alarmed. She stayed home and rested and did a lot of napping and taking it slow. It is still difficulty and moving certain ways hurts more if she flexes. She has a known history of tendonitis so she wore her brace in the meantime. She thought maybe she had tendonitis in both ankles and this was similar so maybe it was a different set of tendons. She would wear a brace, and eventually it will get better in time. She also was wearing braces like compression socks that toes stick out of. She thought she had tendonitis and that is what she has done in the past. It has been a month and she is not better. This was her left foot, most of the pain was focused on the sole of her foot towards the outer edge. That is where it started. Then it migrated over time. That was weird and had her worried. It was all in her arch in the initial spot. She notes it is not like the tendonitis she had the first time. She does not want to be an alarmist or have her doctor think she is a hypochondriac she waited. She was then rubbing her foot, the right one, and noticed it was tender on the top of her foot just like the left one. There was sore. There was pain in right foot, pain in feet. Pain in feet, her left foot had most of the pain on the top and bottom and a lot of it is along the outer part of her sole of the foot. In her right foot, the pain is mostly at the fleshy part below her toes and on top of her foot. The pain moved around into the other foot for about a month so she went to the podiatrist yesterday (06May2021) and doctor did x-rays. The night before (05May2021), the opposite leg had a line of black and blue dots on her right calf that went up her leg, she did not notice this until Wednesday (05May2021) evening because she never examines it. She soaped up a washcloth and she knew where her parts are in the bath. Her mind wanders and she was not looking. She happened to be wearing something where her legs were not covered and that is how she knew. It did not hurt. It was strange, looking like bruising in a line. The doctor said it was all like one vein and he cold feel it. She can not feel it, but he could. The doctor told her these could be clots. She still has them. Doctor said the other leg where she had the pain was only soft tissue pain. Doctor found that every place that hurt when he touched it and it still hurts where he had touched it. She was told she does not have arthritis and she has had arthritis since she was 13. The doctor did not know what it is. It was her left foot constantly, and the right foot hurt off and on during that period. The left for sure was kind of a dull ache and throbbing. The right was only a little bit. The left was worse. It appeared to be soft tissue that was hurting and he said there are so many side effects of this new vaccine and to maybe try heat or ice. Ever since the patient left doctor's office until now (the time of reporting) she did not known if she need to be concerned, that if she does not know what it is, can ice or heat make it worse? She did not know the next steps. Treatment, she tried to keep it elevated because that can not hurt but that is about it. She has not done heat and ice because if the doctor does not know what it is, how does he know it will not make it worse. He asked if she could take aspirin and she said no she is allergic to aspirin. Tylenol she does not take often, only when she feels like she needs it and she has not been doing it often. When she stays off it, it does not hurt as much as when she is walking. She wanted to know if she should be worried and she wanted to add (report this) to the database if this is a side effect and if Pfizer has ever heard of this before. There was also tired, general lethargy, and fatigue. At this point when reporting, she is single and lives alone, and said that "God forbid something happens, there is nobody to say let's get you to a hospital". She heard about blood clots on the news. When they said blood clot yesterday, it was a red warning light going on and a siren. At the time of reporting it was Friday and she did not know that if she need to rush to the hospital. Her primary care physician (PCP) said she had never heard of this and to call Pfizer. The patient asked if she is one of a small group of people this has happened to. She asked if she should not worry and it will go away or should she get to a hospital. She thought she had a problem with her feet (foot problem) but her podiatrist does not know what was going on. She communicated with her physician office today and she said she has never heard of this. She wanted to know if her symptoms have been heard of and if she should go to the hospital. The events did not require a visit to emergency room. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included: height as "5 and three quarters of an inch feet (5'0.75")" on an unspecified date; rapid COVID-19 test on 06May2021: negative; regular COVID-19 test on 06May2021: negative; x-ray on 06May2021 to make sure she did not break anything: unknown results. She also went because she had not done it in a year and she had something from the health department saying to get tested weekly for the virus (clarified that she was talking about the COVID tests as what she went and got done). The outcome of the events was unknown.

A 64-year-old female patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Solution for injection), dose 2 via an unspecified route of administration on 08Apr2021 at the age of 64 years old (Lot Number: ER8732) as 2nd dose, single for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included Cancer: Gerson Therapy; Autoimmune disorder; allergies ongoing; Parvovirus B19: exposed to Parvo B virus, it's called the 5th Disease, she had a rare reaction to it and it gave her Rheumatoid Arthritis ongoing, Fibromyalgia ongoing, Multiple Sclerosis ongoing and Behcet's like overnight; allergies to food (she got swelling, intense depression, suicidal tendencies, and a fight or flight response), drugs (Tylenol and Aspirin, basically any pain killer, Percocet and Darvocet), air, dirt, trees, and bugs. It runs in her family; inflammation. Concomitant medications included ongoing fish oil (FISH OIL); ongoing curcuma longa (TURMERIC [CURCUMA LONGA]); several other supplements; ongoing Benadryl for allergies when need.

Vaccination Facility Type was Hospital. Vaccine was not Administered at any Facility. No History of all previous immunization with the Pfizer vaccine considered as suspect. No Additional Vaccines Administered on Same Date of the Pfizer Suspect. Caller wanted to know about the need for booster dose; Was it going to be like the first or second dose of the vaccine. Caller wanted to know the ingredient of the Pfizer covid vaccine. She said she took both of the doses and had a bad reactions from it. Caller stated she had a lot of issues with the first dose but not as bad as second dose. The second dose almost killed her and affected her brain and speech. She had the Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine, and experienced a bad reaction after both doses. Caller asking what was in the vaccine that could cause her bad reaction. She never had a reaction to any vaccine. She had allergies and autoimmune disorder. Her arm was so sore/ sore left arm the first time. It was difficult to get in and out of car for 3 weeks, but she recovered completely. She helps the handicap people, so she had it put in her left hip/ sore left hip. It was sore for about 2 weeks, but she recovered completely. Caller added she needed to decipher what was written on the vaccination card. She wished they would write better. She used her glasses. Caller took no pharmaceuticals, just Benadryl for allergies when need. The Hospital where she received her vaccine was used and created by another facility, but not a an offsite facility. But for them to use also. Caller added she was cured of everything she had from the Therapy. After the second dose: She started same day as vaccine on 08Apr2021. She did her protocol that time, and as far as breathing and that, it was not like the first dose, but towards the evening she had an auto immune response that lasted for 3 weeks. She felt like she experienced mild sepsis and gained 10 pounds overnight of fluid. Her kidneys, bladder, intestines, stomach and she felt swollen and her liver too. When this happened it started with feeling puffy that evening and lasted for 3 weeks. Caller added if she was exposed to a virus, or had an allergic reaction this happens. Caller added even her lymph nodes got huge and thyroid felt swollen, felt like she had a tourniquet around her neck. That lasted for 3 weeks. It was bad the 1st week. That caused a severe headache that started on the 3rd day and lasted 4 days. It was really bad on the 1st day and she wanted to go to the Emergency Room. She took Benadryl and Ibuprofen, and a Doctor told her she shouldn't take Ibuprofen because of Covid. She was allergic to Tylenol and Aspirin, basically any pain killer, Percocet and Darvocet, Everything except Ibuprofen. Caller did not have the bottle to provide details. She usually put Ibuprofen in her Benadryl bottle for her inflammation. That was the only thing that she took. She took Turmeric and fish oil and several other supplements. Her headache peaked on the 4th day, and she took the Ibuprofen and was better the next day. Throat swelling started on the 5th day and lasted and was still causing her difficulty pronouncing words. Her tongue felt swollen. Her cognitive issues started the 4th day of her headache and was intense. It continued, but was much, much better. She did her normal protocol, and had gotten by, but it was not normal. Her organs felt swollen and the doctor did a test. It was normal, except her bladder, because it was so swollen she felt like she couldn't empty it completely. The muscles did not work right and she got an bladder infection and received antibiotics, about 2 weeks after the injection, because her bladder wasn't working right. Urine test: infection. Intense stomach ache: started at the time her headache stated after 3 days along with the headache and ended with her doing the Therapy. They lasted for 4 weeks. Pain in all her organs: started the 3rd day after the second dose. The pain started, she felt swelling and it lasted for 3 weeks, actually, for 4 weeks, the pain in the part of her liver by her stomach. She experienced a personality change and she wouldn't have the vaccine again. She couldn't remember where she put things, started on the 7th day after her second dose and lasted until the Therapy made her feel better. Finally, after 4 weeks, she recovered completely and was pretty much back normal now. Caller added she was a happy person and was with her Cancer. People asked how she did it. But with this experience she literally wanted to hurt someone or kill herself, and no it was not normal. She was so cranky. She was sure it was the swelling in her brain. With her food allergies she got swelling, intense depression, suicidal tendencies, and a fight or flight response. She wanted to leave her life, it was scary. Caller added she did not feel like this now. For the Vaccine Indication: Caller added that people that need it most, didn't want it. Because of her autoimmune disorder, she was a long huller and she had died 6 times, so she was willing to try it and take it and deal with the side effects. She was hoping it would not cause any. Her boyfriend died at Christmas. After 24 hours he was dead. He had a mild sepsis from a virus. He has Autoimmune disease. If she got Covid, she didn't want to end up like him and see her arms and legs amputated. Caller asked if anyone else had reported symptoms she had experienced. Caller asked to clarify details of her symptoms of suicide and killing and hurting others. Caller denied she was experiencing this at time of call. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of events headache, Personality change, couldn't remember where she put things, bladder infection. The outcome of the events Pain in arm, Pain in hip, Personality change, couldn't remember where she put things, Stomach ache was recovered on an unspecified date, of cognitive issues was recovering, of the other events was unknown.

She clarified that May-Thurner syndrome was where the iliac artery collapses and crushed the iliac vein in the upper abdomen; from that point down it started creating a blood clot. She developed a deep vein thrombosis (DVT) from her left ankle up to her right rib cage area; it was a monster. On 10Feb2021, the patient experienced deep vein thrombosis and thrombectomy was performed on the same day (outpatient thrombectomy surgery, performed 10Feb2021. It was a great surgery, very corrective. She never did have any pain or discomfort which confused everyone. She felt fine this whole time, no issues). On an unspecified date, both of her feet were only slightly swollen. Relevant laboratory test, performed on an unspecified date, in 2021, included computerised tomogram (CT scan with contrast of her abdomen and chest) that showed deep vein thrombosis: left ankle-right ribcage area. The adverse events May-Thurner syndrome and deep vein thrombosis were assessed as serious, hospitalization required from 02Feb2021 to 10Feb2021. The patient recovered from deep vein thrombosis on 10Feb2021, recovered from headache on 26Jan2021, recovered from swelling of feet and vaccination site discomfort on an unspecified date, while clinical outcome of the other events was unknown. Her vascular surgeon said he did not believe these events were vaccine related but cannot rule it out; her Primary Care Physician absolutely believed the events were vaccine related. The information on the lot number has been requested.

A 65-year-old female patient received the 1st dose of bnt162b2 (BNT162B2, Manufacturer Pfizer-BioNTech), via an unspecified route of administration in arm left, on 27Feb2021 (lot# EN6205), as 0.3 ml single, for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included seizure from 2017 (she hasn't had a seizure in 8 months), allergy (to a lot of things). Concomitant medications were not reported. The patient did not have other vaccinations in 4 weeks prior. Within 15 minutes from having the vaccination at the center the patient experienced the first seizure that lasted about an hour. The seizure was really bad, she had breathing issues, dry heaving like she was trying to throw up, mucus to come out. The paramedics checked her out, they stayed around until she came out of the seizure. The patient went home and then at 07:50 PM she started heavy shallow breathing, was nauseous, dizzy, had a headache, which also happened at the center. Ears became hypersensitive, it was so noisy like loud, but her husband and the paramedics said it wasn't loud but she could hear it, all of her senses were heightened. She had a second seizure and didn't known how long it lasted. Patient had another seizure at 08:25 PM, at 08:40 PM she had another one, at 09:00 PM patient was coming back around and had another seizure and her throat closed up and that's when she went to the hospital, when her throat started to close up. While the patient was in the emergency room (ER) she had another seizure, she had 6 total seizures, she has never had this many before so she knows it was an adverse event to this vaccination. The seizures also increased the patient's heart enzymes- troponin levels. The patient has an EEG, was given 4 baby chewable Aspirin, as she had a mild heart attack. She thought the seizure increased her troponin. The patient mentioned that during the first event at the center, she was so into the seizures, she remembers grabbing her left shoulder, her arm was hurting. She was so into the seizure and trying to throwing up that it didn't dawn on her. The hospital didn't tell her she had a mild heart attack, it just dawned on her because her troponin levels were up mildly and she thought the seizures were triggering something in her heart, not just her seizures. The patient got another headache and was dizzy and had shallowing breathing. Seizures recovered on 28Feb2021. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included chest x-ray: normal, it didn't show pneumonia or fluid on the lungs on 27Feb2021, electrocardiogram (EKG): normal on unspecified date, electroencephalogram (EEG): normal on 27Feb2021, troponin: increased on 27Feb2021. Follow-up attempts are completed. No further information is expected.; Sender's Comments: A possible contributory effect of suspect BNT162B2 on reported events cannot be excluded. The impact of this report on the benefit/risk profile of the Pfizer product is evaluated as part of Pfizer procedures for safety evaluation, including the review and analysis of aggregate data for adverse events. Any safety concern identified as part of this review, as well as any appropriate action in response, will be promptly notified to regulatory authorities, Ethics Committees, and Investigators, as appropriate.

April 22, 2021 morning my auntie got her first dose of Pfizer vaccine. She happily shared here vaccine experience with family member and relative. April 23 morning, she told us she has severe abdominal pain, has the need to have a bowel movement, but she was defecated. She also told us that she vomit couple times already, then she has no more energy to talk. She got into the hospital and she was announced death right after midnight at 12:04 April 25th. Reason of death given is "septic shock secondary to ischemic bowel & intra-abdominal sepsis". But it is the blood clots issue that is causing it. I was told that after my auntie got into hospital the very next day after Pfizer vaccine, hospital later found out that my auntie has blood blockage issue that is causing blood couldn't flow to her intestines. The acid in her blood was very high, 6+. After more than 6 hours without blood to her intestines, her intestines tissues start dying and turned black color. Doctor found out about this at the night of April 23, 2021 nighttime. April 22, 2021 morning is the day my auntie got her Pfizer covid vaccine. There is a very high chances of the Pfizer vaccine is causing the blood clots that lead to blood blockages.

stroke; face sunk in and changed/Bells Palsy; This is a spontaneous report from a Pfizer-sponsored program. A contactable consumer (patient) reported that a 65-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, lot number: EN6202), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in the left arm on 16Mar2021 at 14:00 as a single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included a mild case of COVID-19, last year, on an unspecified date in 2020. There were no concomitant medications. The patient had no prior vaccinations within 4 weeks of the COVID vaccine. On 21Mar2021, the patient's face sunk in and changed. The patient's symptoms were not improving. Her eye and right side of her face are affected. She cannot close her right eye. She worked on it and is now able to close right eye not like the left eye closes, but it doesn't blink as the left eye does. She has been using eye drops for this. She said it was Bells Palsy. The patient added that it is hard to look in the mirror. She will not get the second dose. She was not interested in taking the vaccine now. She wanted to wait and see. It being so new and see. Her sister took it and encouraged her, and said it is necessary because they like to travel. She got Prednisone when she was at the hospital, they gave her 60mg Prednisone. Her physician didn't want to keep her on it too long and said it may cause other complications. Her physician cut her off, she weaned her down 50mg, 40mg, 30mg, 20mg, then 10mg. When the patient noticed her face start to turn, she went to the ER. She thought she was having a stroke. The patient was not admitted to the hospital. The outcome of the event face sunk in and changed/bells palsy was not recovered while the outcome of the event stroke was unknown.

A 65-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection), via an unspecified route of administration on 07Mar2021 09:40 (Lot Number: EN6199) (at the age of 65 years old) as single dose (dose 1) for COVID-19 immunisation; and methylprednisolone (MEDROL), via an unspecified route of administration from an unspecified date to an unspecified date at short term increase of the Medrol dose (as reported), from unspecified date to an unspecified date at 2 mg (for four years, as reported), then from unspecified date to 10Mar2021 at 6 mg, then from 11Mar2021 to 13Mar2021 at 8 mg, then from 14Mar2021 to unspecified date at 6 mg, for Lupus. Medical history included diagnosed with asthma initially exercised induced and now it is seasonal and was diagnosed years ago (states she has not had to use her Albuterol inhaler that much now because it is seasonal but she is doing more outside and is allergic to outside things so she tends to use the inhaler more if needed), right leg paresthesia (she did have a right leg paresthesia and had that before the vaccine), autoimmune disorder, thyroid disorder and patient stated that she has lost height. Concomitant medications included salbutamol (ALBUTEROL HFA) taken for asthma; levothyroxine sodium (SYNTHROID) taken for thyroid disorder; paracetamol (TYLENOL); and diphenhydramine hydrochloride (BENADRYL). The patient had a history of Lupus and is on maintenance Medrol 2mg for four years and before that she had a short-term increase of the Medrol dose with flares of her Lupus. She had the Pfizer COVID Vaccine 1st dose and then three days later on 10Mar2021 at 16:00, she thought what is going on and had her tongue tip so irritated and a strange feeling that it was a tiny bit edematous, her lower lip was full tingling. She had mucoid eruption on her lower lip and saw then that the next day thought it was swollen but it wasn't swollen. She had eruption on her tongue, had a rash to her face, neck, chest, back, shoulders and thighs. The rash was dispersed and there is a red raised rash with Lupus called Livedo reticularis and that is usually on the thighs but this rash on her was below her thighs and came up and dispersed between all the same rash elsewhere on her body. The healthcare professionals were closed so she took increased Medrol steroids and her Albuterol inhaler and Benadryl; the Benadryl was thrown out and discarded so she has no lot number to provide for it, stated that the Benadryl was the pediatric dye free bubblegum free. The Albuterol Sulfate HFA inhaler is 90mcg per puff and she does two puffs every 6 hours as needed; she had not taken the inhaler but she has trouble with asthma and took the Albuterol inhaler now as preventative and needs to use the inhaler as of yesterday (lot Y23B with expiry date Dec2021). Patient stated that she has the tools of her Albuterol inhaler, the steroid Medrol and the Benadryl and the knowledge so she prevented the symptoms she was reporting from being life threatening but stated the reported events were a little disabling and medically significant.She had joint pain in her left arm and could not use her left arm and her whole entire arm and hand. She had left clavicle pain under the clavicle and knows this did occur in the random trials but for her it went away after two days and is now back regarding the pain. She has bright red palms and sole of her feet are bright red. The next morning on 11Mar2021, her upper lip was tingling and she did go see her healthcare professional in town and sent photos to her Rheumatologist. As time went on she had tingling in her hands and her entire body from her scalp to her soles was so irritated and prickly and her soles and palms were bright red; it looked like Kawasaki disease and she used to take care of children with Kawasaki disease. On Saturday which was the 3rd day she was on the Medrol 8mg and had the fight or flight cardiac symptom and she cut herself down on the Medrol on the next Sunday to 6mg which seemed to make her better. The redness was gone until she had the Pfizer COVID Vaccine 2nd dose yesterday and the healthcare professional initially said after her 1st dose of the vaccine to wait and see her rheumatologist do decided to do the increased Medrol dose of steroids and she stated she has got to get the 2nd dose of the Pfizer COVID Vaccine; the healthcare professional checked her lungs that were clear and her pulse ox was fine and she was not wheezing and she then went on increased steroids from Medrol 6mg to 8mg right away. She did have a right leg paresthesia and had that before the vaccine so she knows what it is like because she has issues with her spine but had not had the paresthesia in a long time. She increased to Medrol 8mg for the three days after the 1st dose of the Pfizer COVID Vaccine and got a flight or fight response. She had to increase the Medrol dose from 6mg and popped it up to 8mg and she had mucoid eruptions in her mouth, on her palate and down her throat and had a voice change. She has a laryngoscopy on Thursday (25Mar2021) with her ENT. She has pediatric doses of everything because she reacts to almost everything. The 2nd dose of the Pfizer COVID Vaccine was administered to her on 29Mar2021 09:45 with lot ER8732. Patient stated that anyone else would have gone to the emergency room but she took care of herself at home and knows the risk factors related to the vaccine. She absolutely felt the reported events were related to the Pfizer COVID Vaccine in terms of causality and she never had these issues before. The rheumatologist had experience with patients with autoimmune diseases and stated people with autoimmune disease have a heightened immune reaction to the vaccine no matter which vaccine they get and are overly active and then a vaccine is thrown in there and we are charting new territory. The next Thursday or Friday over a week now after the Pfizer COVID Vaccine she had a multisystem type of thing and on 18th and 19th of March she started having episodes and was not doing anything but quietly doing something and had chest flutters and spontaneous cough where her heart races and felt she couldn't catch her breath and is now on a 30 day event monitor. She was not sure this is due to the Medrol steroids or the Pfizer COVID Vaccine. She got her thyroid TSH level done because sometimes when the Synthroid dose needs to be lowered because it is too high for your body and you can have atrial flutter which she has had before in the past from her Synthroid dose being too high; states her Synthroid is 50mcg and takes it once per day by mouth and it is in a prescription bottle with no lot, expiry date or NDC. Patient saw her primary care physician again last Tuesday on 23Mar2021 and all the issues in her throat and neck area had something pressing around her throat and thought it was lymph nodes and woke up with a voice change and physician said he would take a look and he said it was not thrush and she would have to be scoped because he couldn't see in her throat. She had a referral for a CBC and Chemistry lab to be done on 25Mar2021 and TSH was in the usual range for her, the results from Thursday (25Mar2021) night had her BUN and creatinine and GSR (Glomerular filtration rate) abnormal. The rheumatologist called her that night and talked to the physician and said he considered this may be body inflammatory response to being vaccinated and could be that her kidneys were inflamed and she does not know as this is all new territory. For the kidney issues, the information was sent off to the rheumatologist who did orders and called the physician back the next day and she told him she thought she needed a nephrology consult and had urine chemistry, a urinalysis and looked for protein and did a blood draw for a chemistry screen with the following results on 25Mar2021: BUN 22.3, grade IIIa kidney failure, creatinine 1.28, eGSR-NAA 42ml/min, normal is over 60 and she usually runs 70 something. She went to the hospital over the years to have her chemistry lab done because she has Lupus and over the last two years she has never been below 60 for the eGSR-NAA. On 26Mar2021, she repeated the blood work and sent everything to her physician and the CMP had her BUN still elevated at 19.5, the creatinine was down to 0.97 and the eGSR-NAA was up to 58mL/min which is still abnormal; the urinalysis was all fine with no white cells and no leukocytes and no protein; the urine chemistry had the creatine of 8.5, the protein in the urine LVL was less than 0.4mg. Her CBC had her lymphs and monos down and she would expect having this response to the vaccine. Both physician called her on the weekend and they were concerned this came out of nowhere and now are monitoring her again in a month; her physician and rheumatologist both were entertaining this could be related to the Pfizer COVID Vaccine. She does not take vaccines because of what they do to the body and did take the flu vaccine in Oct2020. She was covid negative (unspecified date) and stated had to be screened on Friday 26Mar2021 before her laryngoscopy and did the PCR test and only does the PCR. States she was doing research and had conflicting information from her physician and rheumatologist who she first saw her physician, after her 1st dose of the vaccine and the rheumatologist talked about increasing her steroids and she told him she was so tired and how with increased steroids, do steroids impact the effectiveness of the covid vaccine being blunt immune suppressants. Physician said long term chronic steroids have no effect on the effectiveness of the vaccine. She has no had headaches, shaky chills like everybody else has because she is on immune suppressants and has an article that says some evidence for steroids diminishing efficacy in Pfizer COVID Vaccine. No prior vaccinations within 4 weeks. No additional Vaccines administered on same date of the Pfizer suspect. Events required a visit to physician office (No visit to the ER but did see her physician). The last action taken in response to the events for methylprednisolone was unknown. The outcome of the event had left clavicle pain under the clavicle was recovered on 12Mar2021; event has bright red palms and sole of her feet are bright red was recovered in Mar2021; outcome for the other events was unknown.; Sender's Comments: The reported events are assessed as possibly related to the suspect drug BNT162B2 based on strong temporal association, but possible contributory effects from patient's medical history and concomitant medications cannot be completely ruled out. 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.

He was treated according to sepsis protocol including antibiotics for bacterial infection for pulmonary infiltrates however it was felt the pulmonary infiltrates are more related with COVID-19 pulmonary findings. Eliquis was started for DVT. Medical Center had been contacted Dr was the pulmonary attending and discussion is documented below- Attending hospitalist spoke to Dr from Medical Center. At this point they know that she has Wegener's granulomatosis involving her kidneys and causing her renal failure but they do not think that is what is going on in her lungs. They have still trying to work-up her infiltrates. She has it we obtain a nocturnal oximetry study. She was reassured that the patient is on her normal oxygen rate despite the DVT in her leg. She feels this should rule out a pulmonary embolism. If the patient is doing well from cardiopulmonary standpoint tomorrow she should be able to go home on Eliquis and follow-up with the specialist. She was continued on Monistat cream for 3 nights total. At this point patient will not require antibiotics will continue on Decadron and may be discharged to follow-up with her specialist.

Shortness of breath; pain; Didn't feel well at all; fatigue; I was in A-fib; sick; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable Nurse (patient). A 65-year-old female patient received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Formulation: Solution for injection, Lot Number: EL9269, Expiration date: Unknown), via an unspecified route of administration on 09Jan2021 (at the age of 65-years-old) as 1ST DOSE, SINGLE for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included Hodgkin's disease, Alopecia, Alopecia areata, Asthma, Back pain, Heartburn, Pulmonary embolism. The patient previously took Diltiazem and experienced allergic reaction. Concomitant medications included biotin (BIOTIN) taken for alopecia, finasteride (FINASTERIDE) taken for alopecia areata, hair fall; colecalciferol (VITAMIN D3) taken as a supplement, calcium (CALCIUM) taken for an unspecified indication, (VITAMIN C [ASCORBIC ACID]) taken for an unspecified indication, albuterol [salbutamol] (ALBUTEROL [SALBUTAMOL]) taken for asthma, clobetasol propionate (CLOBETASOL PROPIONATE) topical solution that I put in my scalp for my alopecia, tramadol hydrochloride (ULTRAM [TRAMADOL HYDROCHLORIDE]) as Occasionally taken for back pain, lorazepam (LORAZEPAM) taken for PRN, for sleeping at night, rivaroxaban (XARELTO) Strength:20 mg taken for pulmonary embolism, esomeprazole sodium (NEXIUM [ESOMEPRAZOLE SODIUM]) as PRN taken for Heart burn, levothyroxine (LEVOTHYROXINE) I take that because my thyroid was killed after radiation from having Hodgkin's disease cancer, Docusate sodium with Senna (DOCUSATE SODIUM & SENNA) taken for an unspecified indication. It was also reported that the patient took, unspecified steroid injection in scalp for Alopecia. It was reported that, "I received the COVID-19 Vaccine on 09Jan2021 and the second one on 29Jan2021 Lot number EN6198 and about two weeks, let me go back to my calendar about four day after the first one I had my oral surgery on an unspecified date in Jan2021 and the next, they gave me a narcotic, Norco for pain. I took four of them and it was making me sick, so I stop taking it. The next day I didn't feel well at all. I actually felt like I was through Pulmonary embolism and I have a history of that (Consumer was unsure hence, Pulmonary embolism was not captured as event). So, I called doctor's office, it was closed so we messaged him and Monday he called and said you are on blood thinners you are not going through PE, I think you have been through a lot with the COVID-19 Vaccine then you had oral surgery and here you took Norco and he just said, just let your body rest, so I try to feel better in the next few weeks. The next time I saw a doctor I mentioned this to her that was on 10Feb2021 and it was a dermatologist that I see for alopecia areata (History) and I told her I am having shortness of breath on an unspecified date and lot of fatigue and she said that could be related to the COVID-19 Vaccine, you need to report that and I thought okay, you know she said you need time to get to your doctor. I said, I did, And he told me that it wasn't PE I just need to give my body time to recover from everything. She said (withheld) something is going on, shortness of breath and the fatigue that you are having doesn't sound right. She looked, the next day she called me at home and she looked up some stuff on COVID-19 and she said I really think you should report this and you really need to call the doctor now. So, I called the pulmonologist so again he didn't want to see me, he said you are not going through PE and you need to see cardiologist. So next week I had an appointment with the cardiologist on 19Feb2021. They said I was in A-fib on an unspecified date and they put me on cardiac medications you know to try and to get me medically to convert back into sinus rhythm and that was in February. In March I had an allergic reaction to Diltiazem they switched me to Metoprolol and then two and half months later I was still in A-fib, they sent me to electrophysiologist and Monday I had a cardio version done and so since then I see the dermatologist again for my alopecia and she said, did you ever contacted Covid or you know Pfizer you know you got that paper, when you got the vaccine they give you piece of paper that had phone number on it, I really think you need to let them know everything that happened and its all been since COVID-19 Vaccine. So I am just reporting what I have been through and by the way I am in sinus rhythm now but I am still having symptoms shortness of breath and fatigue. I messaged my doctor yesterday and I am waiting for a response from the electrophysiologist to find out you know why, when I am out of A-fib why I am still having the same symptoms. I take Metoprolol (treatment) because I was in A-fib they are trying to medically convert me and right now my dose has been tapered because I am back in sinus rhythm. So in a month I will be off of it. "Consumer further stated, "No, I just wanted you guys to be aware because my one doctor really insisted that I should call you. I mean I don't know if the Covid-19 vaccine has anything to do with all this or not I am just letting you know as a courtesy. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included EKG: unknown result on an unspecified date in Dec2020, EKG: unknown result on an unspecified date in Mar2021 (echo my ejection fraction was 55% and labs were done like in December because then I will have my annual physical done). The outcome of the events was unknown. No follow-up attempts are possible. No further information is expected.; Sender's Comments: Based on the known safety profile of the vaccine BNT162B2 ,a temporal association between the event atrial fibrillation and administration of BNT162B2 cannot be excluded.The impact of this report on the benefit/risk profile of the Pfizer product is evaluated as part of Pfizer procedures for safety evaluation, including the review and analysis of aggregate data for adverse events. Any safety concern identified as part of this review, as well as any appropriate action in response, will be promptly notified to regulatory authorities, Ethics Committees, and Investigators, as appropriate.

she slowly declined with pneumonia; Woozy/Dizzy; Sleeping all the time; Not eating; Running a fever off and on; Her blood pressure was a bit low, 105 over something; suspected COVID-19 with symptoms; Heart attack; This is a spontaneous report from Pfizer from a contactable Consumer reported for mother. A 65-years-old female patient received bnt162b2 (BNT162B2), dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration on 05May2021 as 1ST DOSE, SINGLE for covid-19 immunisation. The cancer doctor told her that she needed a Covid vaccine since she has cancer and a lowered immune system. Medical history included Metastatic rectal cancer from Jul2019 to 17May2021, Osteoporosis from unknown date to 17May2021 (She had it for maybe 10 years or something), Fibromyalgia from unknown date to 17May2021 (She had the fibromyalgia for 20 years). She had rectal cancer, osteoporosis, fibromyalgia, and a couple other things that the caller can't think of off hand. Her mother was diagnosed with the rectal cancer in Jul2019. The caller has no idea when she was diagnosed with the osteoporosis. She had the fibromyalgia for 20 years, and the caller is sure it was the same for the osteoporosis, maybe 10 years or something. They were being managed. There were no concomitant medications. The patient did have metastatic rectal cancer, but it was managed. She was not on hospice or terminal, and they hadn't exhausted all of the treatment plans yet. It was being controlled. She was under the surveillance of a cancer doctor who was completely shocked by her sudden death. It seemed like there was no reason. She was fine and drove herself to her appointments all the time. She had just driven herself to her last appointment. She passed away yesterday morning. She was slowly declining since she got the vaccine. The coroner was playing guessing games and assumed it was pancreatic cancer. Well, she didn't have pancreatic cancer, and the doctor already said the cancer didn't kill her. The doctor said if he had to guess it could have been some kind of pneumonia or a reaction to the vaccine. All of it made her heart stop. The coroner couldn't get the city to approve an autopsy to see the real cause of death because there was no foul play. The caller took it upon herself to discover if maybe Pfizer could help, and she needs to alleviate the vaccine as an option if it contributed. She is so tired and hasn't slept. It is devastating. This woman was everything in her life, and the caller is probably going to go next with how she feels. She feels responsible. Her other guess is if she gave her mother Covid and she slowly declined with pneumonia. The caller couldn't get her sister to take her mother to the ER. Her sister was there Sunday night. On Monday morning her sister called to say her mother was gone. On 05May2021 the patient had the first dose of the Covid vaccine. The caller could have gone there or called an ambulance when her mother wasn't answering the phone. She knew something was wrong. She called her sister who said their mother wasn't feeling good. Her mother was woozy, dizzy, and sleeping all the time. On day 3, Sunday, the caller couldn't get her mother on the phone. She thought she had some level of peace because her sister was there and could keep her updated. Her mother often gets sickly, but she always answers the phone even if she is deathly sick. The caller thought enough is enough and she needed to be put on the phone on speaker with her mother. The caller's sister said her mother was sleeping. The doctor said to probably bring her mother to the ER. The caller told her sister who just didn't take her mother to the ER. The caller could have called an ambulance. She feels incompetent. They are assuming the cause of death was a heart attack. If her mother had gone to the ER on Sunday night they may have found out. Her mother became woozy last weekend because the caller was there on Thursday and her mother didn't look good. She had her chemo bag because she brings it home. It was her first new chemo treatment, and the caller had never seen her mother respond like this. It was strange. Any other time when she was getting chemo she felt great because there is so much stuff in there like steroids to prevent a reaction. It was surprising because she was only sick on chemo once and she had been on this one before. She was just off. Then she continued to decline from there. It started before the chemo. She got on chemo that Thursday before Mother's Day, she was on her first chemo treatment at that time. She was sick a couple of days before that. She had the chemo on 06May2021. She started feeling sickly the day she got the injection on 05May2021. When the caller was there she was thinking it was from the chemo. The caller calls her mother every day and she was sounding worse and worse. On Thursday 13May2021 her mother took herself to her chemo follow up appointment and was telling the doctor that she was woozy, dizzy, and not eating. The doctor gave her fluids, and he didn't give her chemo because she was not scheduled for it that day. It was just a follow up appointment. He sent her home. The caller talked to her mother on Thursday evening and she didn't sound good and told her she was woozy and dizzy. On Friday, Saturday, and Sunday she didn't answer the phone. The caller's mother is totally against vaccines, and she had been begged to get the pneumonia and flu vaccine and denied them. She had never responded well to them in her life. Even as a cancer patient they would say she needed it and she wouldn't. She did get the Covid vaccine even though she didn't want to. The caller thought her mother was trying to convince herself it was because of the vaccine because she is so against them, but now she doesn't know. The doctor said he didn't think it would have been Covid because she didn't have a fever. Her mother told her that she had been running a fever off and on, which is not unusual for her mother. The doctor didn't think it would have been Covid. Her mother started sleeping all the time mid week last week. She started not eating at the end of last week. The caller has no idea when her mother had a fever. She hadn't gotten to talk to her mother all weekend. At some point last week her mother had said in a conversation that she had a fever off and on. Then on Thursday when she went to the chemo doctor she had no fever it shows it was 97 something. Her oxygen was fine. Her blood pressure was a bit low, 105 over something, which is low for her. She didn't have a fever last Thursday. Prior Vaccinations within 4 weeks no other vaccinations. Blood work on 13May2021 with unknown result. The patient passed away on 17May2021 after receiving the first dose of the Pfizer Covid vaccine. The caller expresses concern that her mother may have had Covid. No autopsy done. Cause of death was Heart attack. Information on Lot/Batch number has been requested.; Reported Cause(s) of Death: Heart attack

She started having delusions and hallucinations, body tremors like epileptic seizure, she was falling down and using the bathroom on herself, her walk was a shuffled gate, she didn't remember almost 3 months in hospital, coma for 5 days and had a mini stroke. Her psych doctor thought maybe the vaccine could have triggered this type of reaction. She gained consciousness and was sent to a rehab nursing home where she's learning to walk to feed herself and getting stronger now that she's home. There's a long road to recovery.

Immunocompromised persons, including individuals receiving immunosuppressant therapy, may have a diminished immune response to the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine. Antibody testing is not recommended to assess for immunity to SARS-CoV-2 following COVID-19 vaccination because the clinical utility of post-vaccination testing has not been established. Experts are currently evaluating how COVID-19 vaccination may affect antibody testing results. If an immune response develops the goal of vaccination is a possibility of on antibody tests. Antibody tests indicate a previous infection and there may be some level of protection against the virus. Caller states she received the second dose of the vaccine, had an anaphylactic reaction, and was treated with steroids, and Benadryl. She is calling about the Pfizer COVID 19 vaccine. After the second dose of the COVID vaccine, she had an anaphylactic reaction. Her question is, since she had to get IV steroids and stuff, is the dose still effective.

AE requires a visit to Emergency Room. The outcome of the events was recovered on 29Mar2021.; Sender's Comments: Based on the available information in the case, the causal association between the events anaphylactic reaction, disease recurrence and the suspect drug BNT162B2 cannot be excluded. The case will be reassessed once new information is available.

2 days after vaccination right thighs and right leg started to have pain similar to pain I got with polymyalgia rheumatica that I have had in past and I though it was a flare up. A couple of days after that right leg started to swell and was warm. Went to ER on 1/29/2021 and had doppler which showed blood clots from groin area to below the knee. I was placed on Xarelto at that time. Got 2nd dose and about 24 hours latter back of thighs started to hurt again. Called doctor and applied heat and elevation and had no new swelling but I remain on Xeralto. Not sure if it was related but I have had no history of blood clots. 2 years previously broke my right patella and was with brace and no weight bearing for about 8 weeks and brace for 12 weeks without clot issues. Traveled by car a couple thousand miles last year and no issues.

large knot right above the injection site/size of a half dollar/size of a silver dollar and where the needle went in was right at the base of that knot/like egg under the skin or clot; felt like she got a flu shot and could tell her arm was very sore; swelling started almost immediately after the shot/swelling was exactly underneath the injection site, just in the pronounced area/about 4 inches wide and about 2 inches high; thought maybe someone has hit a vein because it did bleed and ran down her arm; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer. A 66-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE; Solution for injection, lot number: EN6201, unknown expiration), via an unspecified route of administration on 18Feb2021 at 04:30 at a single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history reported as none. Concomitant medications included tolterodine and adalimumab (HUMIRA). The patient reported that she received the COVID vaccine on 18Feb2021 at around 4:30. Firstly it was fine, she felt like she got a flu shot and could tell her arm was very sore. What concerned her was the swelling started almost immediately after the shot on 18Feb2021. She knew that was one of the symptoms. This morning and yesterday though (18Feb2021), she noticed some of the symptoms. She got a large knot that was right above the injection site. Yesterday, it was about the size of a half dollar, today it is about the size of a silver dollar and where the needle went in was right at the base of that knot. It feels like an egg under the skin or a clot. Like a knot (a hard spot underneath the skin). The patient was wondering if it was something she should be concerned about because the swelling was exactly underneath the injection site, just in the pronounced area. It was a rectangle and is about 4 inches wide and about 2 inches high and then right above that was where the needle went in. The large circle or knot was right above that and she was thinking possibly when she was given the injection she has never really bleed before. So, she thought maybe someone has hit a vein because it did bleed and ran down her arm. She got no problem. That happens at times, but she started thinking if this was a clot or it was something that is right above there because it is so pronounced, and it really hurts. The patient stated that she took some Aspirin last night and is going to take an ibuprofen in a little while. She mentioned that she takes this one pill and it has nothing to do with anything. The patient had lab work done (unknown results) that was about 3 weeks ago (2021). She also stated that she also take Humira which is a shot every 2 weeks and it said in the fact sheet that she should be concerned or be sure that she did not take any medicine that affects the immune system and Humira does weaken the immune system but she was not ask that prior to. The patient wanted to know if is that something she should be concerned about. Outcome of the events was unknown. No follow-up attempts are possible. No further information is expected.

Ischemic stroke; not hypertensive, but supposedly is now.; Visual disturbances; Headache; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable nurse (patient). A 66-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE; lot: EM9810, expiry: unknown), via an unspecified route of administration in the left deltoid on 01Feb2021 14:15 at a single dose for covid-19 immunization at a Physician office. Medical history included asthma, irritable bowel syndrome, pneumonia and borderline high cholesterol. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. The patient had no prior vaccinations within 4 weeks. The patient had her first COVID-19 vaccine on 01Feb2021 and second one is due on 22Feb2021. On 03Feb2021, the patient had a headache, but didn't think too much because it is a side effect. The headache lasted all through the weekend. Visual disturbances began 04Feb2021. She called her doctor on Monday and was seen by her doctor on Tuesday, 09Feb2021. The patient was referred to the eye center. Her headache was getting a little better. On 10Feb2021, the patient was seen at an institution, her retina and macula looked good, so she was referred to the ED. The patient was told she probably had a stroke. The patient was admitted to the hospital for an ischemic stroke. By looking at the MRI, the onset of the ischemic stroke would have been five to seven days prior, placing the onset on Wednesday, 03Feb2021, which was also the onset of her headache. There is no definitive cause of her ischemic stroke. The patient currently has an arrhythmia monitor on. MRI/MRA showed her vessels looked good. MRI showed evidence of the ischemic stroke. The patient has neurologists since being admitted to the hospital. It was thought that the headache was just because of the COVID-19 Vaccine. Causality was unknown, it was stated that they haven't found anything else as a cause. The patient's doctor stated she was borderline for high cholesterol. She was not hypertensive, but supposedly is now. The patient also had echocardiogram, EKG, manual neuro checks, and blood work but does not have the results. The outcome of the events was unknown. The has trouble reading now since the stroke.; Sender's Comments: Based on available information, the reported events are assessed as unrelated to the vaccine BNT162B2 and can be explained as intercurrent or underlying medical conditions in this elderly patient with excessive weight (BMI=29) and underlying elevated cholesterol.

get sore arm; Anaphylactic reaction; Shortness of breath; look miserable; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 66-year-old female patient received bnt162b2 (BNT162B2), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Right on 09May2021 (Lot Number: EW0177; Expiration Date: Aug2021) at single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included asthma since she was 8 years old, when she was a child her asthma was really bad and then she would say after 2004, she would say she went to chemotherapy and then 2005 her asthma got a lot better, didn't have it really bad as she used to, one doctor said he had heard that from patient they go through the chemo and their immune system change, she carried her little inhaler, but she don't have (incomplete sentence), she had asthma but not really bad, she was not like walking around every day with asthma packs but she have asthma and she keep little inhaler, for eg; if there is lot of pollen in air then she will need to take out her inhaler; breast cancer; seizure; hypertension, high cholesterol. Concomitant medications included zonisamide taken for seizure, lacosamide (VIMPAT) taken for seizure, losartan taken for hypertension, atorvastatin taken for high cholesterol, all start and stop date were not reported. Some years ago when she in 2005 when she was on the end like she said its 2005 and she was right on the end of being treated for breast cancer. she was taking, the doctor put her on Tamoxifen and she woke up one morning to really short of her breath and she thought it was her asthma, so the lady she was staying with said you look miserable and she said let her get back on the store and have her take her to the ER she said call now and it turned she had a blood clot in her lungs but 'Dr PRIVACY' (not spelled) who was treating her, he was a cancer specialist he said PRIVACY she was so proud of her, he said that she got to take you off the Tamoxifen, it was that Tamoxifen that caused blood clot in your lung. A blood clot in the lungs was the side effect of the Tamoxifen. Tamoxifen was one of the drug they give women who have had breast cancer and are right at the end of the treatment and put us on Tamoxifen and she ended up with a little bit of blood clot in her lungs. He said that was one of the effects of Tamoxifen. So, that was like in 2008, 2009 it was 12 years ago, could have 11 years ago but this goes to show her body may have potency for allergic reaction. The patient stated she had short of her breath because she did have allergic reaction shortness of breath with Pfizer Vaccine first dose at a pharmacy yesterday 09May2021, had been given Prednisone so. She did shortness of breath about 45 minutes after she took it because we had to sit there about she would say we were sitting there about 20 minutes and he finally said well you all can get up and leave and then about say 15 minutes later she start getting shorter and shorter of her breath. " The patient stated, she just needed to Pfizer certainly reporting acting as if this was just a completely safe vaccine there are unsafe reaction to this vaccine so she wanted to get this going okay, she was 66 years old she end up going to the ER, they didn't give her Epipen' (not clarified further) so that's when she started to get sore arm, she had an anaphylactic reaction to this drug. Now if this was the wrong number to report it to then she would call to get to agency she needed to report it to. she was on the Prednisone now. Sometimes it was difficult for she to breathe, so the emergency room they 'have' (not clear) she up with enough medication now, so she had got plenty of medication now." She stated it just happened yesterday, when she saw on the news that they hadapproved it to be for children and it bothers me that they, this was just a break simple drug no very safe. Yesterday when she first started getting short of her breath she was in denial and didn't want to because she was really started shorter of my breath and the pharmacist that administered he even said he knew that it was the reaction to the drug because she was full animated before he administered the vaccine because she was sitting there talking to the two ladies and you know jabbering and remember the days because of flu shots and how the government used it, they didn't wanted knowledge when people talked about how the flu shot (Unspecified Shot) made them sick and she was just jabbering so he knew it was reaction to the vaccine. Here was this lady 'who was so animated and talking and now she can barely hold her head up' (not clarified further). Patient confirmed Prednisone as treatment. As for the treatment patient stated, "Took the 2 Prednisone and what happened was, if I wasn't even going to go get Prednisone, but the shortness of breath was going transient, what I mean is first of all I talk and I do fine and then all of a sudden I get short of my breath again and then looked like I had a good night and then I woke up and my lungs tightened up again and then earlier this evening I called on phone and tell them I have to take Prednisone because my breath was getting short again." Prednisone details were 10 mg 4 tablet by mouth every day for 5 days then 2 tablet every day for 3 days, so 1 every day for 2 days. As for other medications: patient stated she was on seizure medications daily. She was on treatment for asthma, she had a little inhaler she keep in her purse for eg; if there's pollen in the air, when she got out and then maybe get short of her breath if there's pollen in the air yeah she need her little inhaler, but she was on daily treatment for her seizures she was on 800 mg a day for the seizures, Zonisamide and Vimpat. In fact that day she wouldn't take any other medication because she thought well she was not taking any other medication' (not clarified further) to mix it with this vaccine. Normally she take the 25 mg for high blood pressure but she won't take it that day she think it's called Losartan or something. Little bit of high blood pressure they cut that down because her blood pressure had gotten, she had some high blood pressure yes it's called 25 mg of Losartan. Yeah she thought, she won't take it that morning because she though well just lay off all of that stuff that day and so we can take the vaccine, 'mix none of that with vaccine' (not clear), that day the only medication that she was taking was her seizure medication (Zonisamide and Vimpat) because you can't skip medication but the Losartan and Atorvastatin that's for high cholesterol she won't take that either that day. The asthma now, she did have asthma but it's a kind of that's one the things that you have it but you are not on daily medication for it. She do keep her inhaler with because sometimes she go in buildings where they have air condition on really high and it gets to her lungs. In fact when this happened and the guy wanted to call 911 we decide well let's see if new inhaler (Unspecified Medication) worked and it wasn't quite rescuing her lungs like it should." For Vimpat details patient stated, it's a pill (formulation not clarified further), it's 100 mg so she took one in the morning and one in the evening. For Zonisamide details patient stated, Each capsule was 100 mg, so she take two 100 in the morning and two 100 before she go to bed." As for lab Test patient sated, "Just had a MRI but no dye just the plain MRI with no dye or anything. Had MRI without dye, no dye." hen probed for the MRI result, consumer stated, "No because this was the seizure doctor ordering that." As for date of MRI patient stated, "That was on the 4th I think, but what was the MRI have to do with having a reaction to this vaccine, because the MRI. Doctor want specifically had no dyes it was just no dyes but that was the doctors that treat me for seizure he wanted the MRI done, yeah this was the 4th of May." When probed if adverse events are improved, worsened or persisting, consumer stated, "today you know just a short of the breath I am really short of my breath but now when I have taken the Prednisone I am breathing a lot better, breathing so much better yes, you can mark improve (not clarified further)." The outcome of the event shortness of breath was recovering, of other events was not recovered.

A week after the first dose, I started to have a pain in the distal part of the tongue, at this time I thought it was just a beginning of a canker sore, gradually I feel a small painful blue mass. I went to see a Dr. he suggested a surgery. I consulted an ENT doctor who concluded for surgery to target a histological type of the tongue lesion.

Five days after the vaccine she was on the phone, sitting in a chair and she lifted her arm up and it felt heavy and it just dropped. She then started to raise the arm and she was not able to do it. She then suddenly lost sensation in her left arm. She then could not control it, would raise when it wanted to but was not able to feel it or control it. (had the feeling that it was not connected to her body and it was just floating around). Then started having involuntary muscle spasms in her mid torso region. The same thing then happened again and the muscle spasms were more intense and she waited around and lasted for minutes. She never lost consciousness, but then it happened again and was spreading on her left side. It then encompassed from her hip up to her shoulder. The involuntary muscle spasms were moving from the side toward her chest to where she felt it would impact her breathing. She then went to the ER and they started doing testing, and she had more spasms, and then started having double vision. In talking with the doctor about all of this she had a CVA with complex partial epilepsy with recurrent seizures and that the double vision was related to the infarct in her brain and that the stroke triggered the seizure that she had. She did not lose any memory, loss of consciousness, no weakness or loss of sensation. These episodes only lasted minutes and a refractory time of minutes and when she got to the ER she the other episode when they were trying to test her. They were not able to do the EKG or EEG due to the involuntary movements and these resolved. She is now completely recovered other than the fatigue with no residual. She saw a neurologist on 2/24/21 who felt like that she had a stroke and put her on Keppra and is going to FU in 3 months at IU. It was ruled out that there was no relationship of her transplant to this reaction. She is now on Keppra, Atorvastatin for the swelling in her brain, and also put on aspirin 81 mg. Her blood tests that were done were all drawn and were all within normal limits except for kidney function, but is only a minor #'s for her secondary to the transplant. She then had some titers drawn for CMV and that was also negative. Then she had a COVID test that was negative. Then she had spinal tap that came back normal results.

I am writing this on behalf of my mother. She received the first round of the vaccine (Pfizer/EL9269) on 2/18/21. That evening she reported not feeling "right". Over the next two days after receiving the vaccine on Thursday she reported to family that she didnt feel well. She had no fever but muscle aches, an earache and sore throat (this was on Friday and Saturday). On Sunday her breathing became a bit labored. She still had previous symptoms reported and labored breathing -- she stated she thought she would have to go to the Dr the next day (Monday, Feb 22, 201) if she did not feel better. Sometime in the night of Feb 21st and Feb 22nd my mom passed away. My mom had many health problems. Heart disease, diabetic, she was on dialysis and had sleep apnea. However, she definitely seemed to be having some difficulty with the affects of the first vaccine. Please let her life be counted.

I was 2 weeks post prolapse surgery and healing quite well. I thought that would be enough time to wait to heal and get my vaccine. I got the vaccine in the afternoon and that night at about 10 pm I started bleeding profusely with blood clots coming out of my vagina. Before this I had no bleeding post surgery or any complications. This lasted all night. I went to the surgeon next day and the bleeding and blood clots had stopped. 2 days later it started again all night long. I refrained, stupidly, to not go to ER because of the virus. It stopped next day and then 2 days later I woke up in blood and clots and it would not stop. I had to go to the ER my surgeon said to stop it. He added more stitches to my previous surgery.

Tests were run and they found that I had a Dorsal Pons stroke which caused the double vision due to lack of movement in my right eye.

blood clot; Right leg swelled and achy; Right leg swelled and achy; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable nurse (patient). A 67-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Batch/Lot Number: EP7534),dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 16Mar2021 (at the age of 67years) as single dose for Covid-19 immunization. Medical history included ongoing Beta thalassemias. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. The patient did not receive any other vaccines within 4 weeks prior to the COVID vaccine. The patient stated she has never had a problem with vaccinations, and she gets the flu vaccine every year. The patient reported that after the first injection coincidentally she did develop a blood clot in her lower leg. She thinks that it was due to a plane ride, but she has never had a blood clot before the injection. She added that she had the first dose on 16Mar2021 and developed a clot in a week. She further clarified that she got her first injection on 16Mar2021 and realized when she went on a flight, which is not that far she developed that clot and was having problems shortly after flight home on 24Mar2021 where her leg swelled up and she is on blood thinners since she went to the emergency room. She added that she developed the clot sometime between that flight and 02Apr2021. She had a doppler study on an unspecified date and it showed a blood clot. She stated that the outcome was she does not have the blood clot (as reported) but she will be on blood thinners and she needs to follow up on her scan to see if the clot issue is resolved but she will not have a doppler scan for another month or two and the blood thinner she is taking is Xarelto. She also stated that her right leg swelled up and it felt like a log. She reported it felt achy and swollen quite a bit from knee down and her leg was achy. It started between 24Mar2021 and by time she went to the emergency room she was not getting better. She had her symptoms for a week and toward the end of the week she thought she had a blood clot since it was not getting better it just got worse. She added that right now it is not swollen but she has been supine, and she does believe that it is better. The outcome of events was recovering. (As reported "outcome is unknown but pretty sure it has improved because of the blood thinners"./She stated she does not think it has resolved because it takes time for clots to resolve./She added that right now it is not swollen but she has been supine, and she does believe that it is better.) The reporter stated for the seriousness criteria for event blood clot: she believes as a nurse that any blood clot is extremely dangerous, and she was not hospitalized but obviously a blood clot is serious, and she could have ended up with pulmonary embolism. The seriousness for events right leg swelled and achy was reported as medically disabling. Causality assessment: Patient stated for the blood clot she has doubts if it was related to the vaccine but is it something that should be known about; for the leg swelling and achy she has doubts but it could have been the plane ride.; Sender's Comments: Based on the current available information, the reported events are most likely related to an intercurrent or underlying condition which is unlikely related to the suspected drug. The plane ride may provide an explanation for the events. The case will be reassessed if additional information becomes available.

Shortly after the second vaccination I started developing frequent occular migraines. I had them occasionally before, but they became very frequent. I also had very bad pain in my wrists, which is one of my indications of inflammation. I had none of the regular advertse symptoms, like chills, fever, etc, so didn't associate with the vaccine. Less than one month after the second shot I experienced intense occular migraine (no pain), dizziness and nausea. Went to ER the next morning, and I had had a stroke. The neurologist says can't tell if due to migraine, but there is a rare type of stroke caused by occulat migraine.

On Thursday, 3/18, I woke up at 3:30 am extremely dizzy with everything moving around me. Sitting up was better but upon laying down, the extreme dizziness returned. I was still dizzy when I finally fell back asleep. In the morning, I nearly passed out & was in a cold sweat when I got up. Gatorade helped. My PCP's office said it was probably a vaccine reaction. I continued to feel rather light headed & neck pressure & by Tuesday, 3/23, I had a lot of body aches, diarrhea, I was definitely light headed & felt like I could pass out. Over the next days, my blood pressure was very unstable. This random blood pressure issue continued & then the Premature Ventricular Contractions (PVC's) began to increase in spite of the Metropolol. They became very frequent causing light headedness & neck pressure. On 4/12, I went to the ER because my blood pressure was 185/50, heart rate 92. Every 3rd beat was a PVC. The cardiologist changed me to Verapamil 120 mg/day. My condition deteriorated especially in the 3 days prior to the ablation. I was short of breath with weak extremities. The ablation was done on 5/25 & the Cardiologist said I was having PVC's every 2 seconds. I am currently recovering from the procedure. Prior to the 2nd vaccine shot, my PVC's were well controlled by Metropolol to 18% from the 21% in February 2019 prior to taking Metropolol. My blood pressure was consistently normal as well.

The patient medical history was not reported. Ongoing concomitant medications included citalopram; famotidine; ascorbic acid, betacarotene, cupric oxide, tocopheryl acetate, zinc oxide (PRESERVISION), all taking probably 4 or 5 years. She took allergy medicine this time of year but was not on that during this time. No prior vaccinations (within 4 weeks). No family medical history relevant to events. No additional vaccines administered on same date of the Pfizer suspect. The patient experienced mini stroke: facial droop, slurred speech, glossy eyes and a little out of it on 09May2021 23:45. Patient states she is calling regarding the Pfizer Covid vaccine. Five weeks after the second vaccine, she had a mini stroke. She has no high risk factors. She is being tested currently for Atrial Fib and has a monitor. She had all of the testing done at the hospital. Had an MRI, CT scan on the carotids, and echocar-diogram and lab work. She had a little bit high LDL and that was the only thing that was abnormal, so they put her on baby aspirin and a statin drug. This happened when she was out of town. When she got back into town, her primary care physician said to report the mini stroke to Pfizer. There had been no reported side effects of clotting or whatever, with Pfizer. Before that, she had no high blood pressure, she doesn't smoke, and does not have diabetes. So, he said to report it. Called 911 and the ambulance came. They checked her blood pressure and blood sugar and they were pretty good. They advised her to go to the ER. Her son and husband drove her to the ER. She was in PRIVACY and went to PRIVACY hospital. They admitted her to the ER and gave her aspirin. She does not recall if it was one or two. She should have had 2 but does not recall. They observed her there. All of the symptoms resolved within 3 minutes. She had facial droop, slurred speech and glossy eyes. Her husband said she seemed a little out of it. They admitted her to the observation unit and they ran all the testing. Was there 13 hours. She was just in observation and was not admitted to the hospital. They needed her to follow up in a week with her physician. Has heard of other people having mini strokes but she is no expert. Just thought it would be nice if down the road, if there were any association, it would be published anytime that it did occur. No additional information provided regarding this statement regarding other people having mini strokes. Min stroke required a visit to emergency room and physician office. Relevant Tests: CT of carotids, MRI, echocardiogram, lab work, were all normal but little high HDL. They also did a separate CT of the carotids. They were going to do an ultrasound but did the CT of the Carotids. Event mini stroke: facial droop, slurred speech, glossy eyes and a little out of it seriousness reported as medically significant. Treatment for event mini stroke: facial droop, slurred speech, glossy eyes and a little out of it: nothing else at the time except the aspirin. They discharged her and told her she need-ed to take baby aspirin every day and atorvastatin, generic Lipitor, 40mg every day. Has been taking ever since. The outcome of event mini stroke: facial droop, slurred speech, glossy eyes and a little out of it was recovered on 09May2021.The outcome of other event was unknown. Causality reported as unknown. She would say that it is questionable. Is it a possibility? Yes but does not know.

sinus headaches; Her platelets are supposed to be 150,000 to 180,000, and hers are normally 120,000. Right now they are like 30,000.; Suspect ITP; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 68-year-old female patient received bnt162b2 (BNT162B2), dose 2 administered in Arm Left on 26Feb2021 (Batch/Lot Number: EL9267) at age of 67-year-old as 2ND DOSE, SINGLE for covid-19 immunisation. Time the Vaccination Was Given Between 1100 and 1300. Vaccination Facility Type was Mass vaccination drive thru site. Medical history included she had a low platelet count before the vaccine, Seasonal allergies, Sinus headaches, diagnosed allergies, compromised immune status, respiratory illness, genetic/chromosomal abnormalities, endocrine abnormalities (including diabetes) and obesity. She doesn't remember what vaccines caused her to have a sore arm, maybe tetanus, but she doesn't remember. Her maternal grandmother had leukemia which is one of the possible causes. She never had anybody else in her family with ITP or anything like that. Concomitant medications included paracetamol (TYLENOL), ibuprofen, caffeine, paracetamol (EXCEDRIN), all taken for headache. She had both doses of the Pfizer covid 19 vaccine. The patient had her first dose of the Covid-19 Vaccine (lot: EL9269) on 05Feb2021 in her right arm and her second dose in her left arm on 26Feb2021. One of the reasons she got them in 2 different arms was because she heard she might be less likely to have arm pain. She doesn't remember what vaccines caused her to have a sore arm, maybe tetanus, but she doesn't remember. It has been years since she had another vaccine. She had enough that she actually wrote in her journal on 28Feb2021 that she was getting unusual black and blue marks all over and they were bigger than usual. It is possible it was immediately as soon as she had the second dose. She wrote on 28Feb2021, but she knows that is not the first day she noticed it. It is getting better. she still gets new ones that seem random. She has 2 marks right now on her trunk. She has one on her stomach and one on her side. She is still getting them but not as frequent or as bad. Some she knew where they were from, and others she had no recollection of hitting herself. She went to the doctor and had a regular physical and bloodwork done, and she is in the process of being diagnosed. They suspect ITP (Immune Thrombocytopenia Purpura). The AE require a visit to Physician Office. She gets seasonal allergies, and from time to time she gets sinus headaches. She thinks she might have had some headaches at that time. She assumed they were sinus headaches because it felt like they were. During the day she took 1 Excedrin and 1 Extra Strength Tylenol for the headaches. At night she sometimes took 2 Tylenol and sometimes Ibuprofen. She does remember having some headaches. Her headaches come and go. She had them she is thinking in February or March. She still has headaches. It is normal for her year round. She had quite a few more for a while, but now it is more normal like once a week. She takes the Excedrin, Extra Strength Tylenol, and Ibuprofen as needed. She tends to go with Excedrin and Tylenol for headaches during the day if she can. At night she tends to go with Tylenol unless she took it too close to bedtime to be able to take it at night. The Tylenol is 500mg. The Excedrin is a mixture of 250mg Acetaminophen, 250mg Aspirin, and 65mg caffeine. When she took the Ibuprofen she usually took 600mg. She did have bloodwork done. Her platelets are supposed to be 150,000 to 180,000, and hers are normally 120,000. Right now they are like 30,000. They said if she notices anything weird to go to the ER. She has had several platelet tests done. The first was on 04May2021, and her platelets were 30,000. The second was on 11May2021, and her platelets were 30,000. She had it done again on 17May2021, and her platelets were 25,000. Last week she had a bone marrow scan, and she will need a bone marrow biopsy. She did have a bone marrow biopsy done at a surgery center, but no treatment. It was to rule out other possible causes. The outcome of sinus headaches was recovering, of other events was unknown.

arm soreness; community acquired pneumonia; COPD; shortness of breath; chest congestion; weakness; fatigue; Muscle aches and pains; she became ill; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable nurse from a Pfizer-sponsored program Pfizer First Connect. A 68-years-old female patient received second dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number: EL1284), intramuscular on 06Jan2021 at single dose on right deltoid for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included blood pressure high and seasonal allergies. There were no concomitant medications. The patient previously received first dose of bnt162b2 (Lot: EJ1685) on 16Dec2020 for COVID-19 immunization. The patient experienced community acquired pneumonia, shortness of breath, chest congestion, weakness, fatigue, COPD, muscle aches and pains, she became ill, all on12Jan2021; arm soreness on an unspecified date. Events required Emergency Room visit. Clinical course reported as: she got the second dose of the pfizer covid vaccine on 06Jan2021 and on 12Jan2021 she experienced shortness of breath, chest congestion, weakness and fatigue. Nurse stated ER doctor thought she had COPD or community acquired pneumonia. Nurse further stated she had the second COVID-19 vaccine on 06Jan2021. A week later on 12Jan2021, she became ill. She had all the symptoms of COVID. She was short of breath, very fatigued. She couldn't get any air, she was at work. She had muscle aches and pains. The shortness of breath, fatigue and weakness lasted several days. She also had severe chest congestion. She confirmed she got better. It actually took 4 or 5 days. By that Sunday (17Jan2021) she was better. She wanted it noted she had no reaction right after the shot. She stated she only had arm soreness, it was just a little sore, not even worth mentioning. It was only when she moved her arm a certain way. This was with either vaccine (first or second vaccine). She went to the doctor and somebody thought it might be a reaction, but the nurse thought it was too late for a reaction. The ER doctor thought it was COPD and community acquired pneumonia. Her primary doctor thought it was COPD. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included COVID-19 test: negative on 12Jan2021. Outcome of arm soreness was unknown, others was recovering.; Sender's Comments: Based on the drug-event time interval and the vaccine's safety profile, the community acquired pneumonia is possibly intercurrent condition, unrelated to vaccine BNT162B2 administration, which is not the disease that the vaccine BNT162B2 can prevent from. While the COPD is more likely underlying condition, unrelated to vaccine BNT162 injection. 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.

This was her first time ever receiving EpiPen (Lot 029F20AA, expiration Mar2022, and NDC is 0093-5986-27). The ER doctor prescribed her 0.3 mg every 5-15 minutes as needed for anaphylaxis, and not to exceed 3 doses. She received the Benadryl at the drug store, 120mg tablet, first dose was given at drug store. Patient reported she was given prednisone IV in hand through IV at ER, she doesn't know how much that was, then was given Prednisone to go home with- 20mg tablets take 2 a day for 4 days, which she started Sunday morning, 07Mar2021. She was told she experienced a life threatening allergic reaction. Patient was taken to the ER in the ambulance, the paramedic who was with her said she was his first COVID reaction patient. ER doctor told her not to take the second dose of Pfizer vaccine, and to be cautious if taking the EpiPen, she states her heart was racing because of the EpiPen and was told it was because she was not younger that her body did not handle the Epi like younger people do and was told she could have a heart attack from the EpiPen. She was scared because she was not covered fully, since she can't get the second shot of Pfizer, and she was afraid of the Epi Pen, so she was really in a tough spot. ER doctor stated she may be able to take the Johnson and Johnson vaccine, as the second, but she needs to talk to her Primary care about that. The ER doctor continued to tell her it would have to be a special case where she was in a hospital setting in case she has another serious reaction, she was concerned for not receiving the second dose because that means she was not completely covered with one vaccine. She was afraid of the Epi-Pen since she can get a heart attack from it because of her age. The patient mentioned she was tested in Oct (clarified as 14Oct2020) for Covid due to having a viral infection at that time but was negative. Added the ER paper work says ED anaphylaxis. The patient wanted to ask about finding out the ingredients in Pfizer vaccine and the ingredients in the Johnson and Johnson vaccine. She saw the list on the fact sheet of Pfizer's ingredients and in a few places it says Potassium, 3 different ingredients, and several months ago, she quit eating bananas, bananas have potassium, and they were giving her stomach upset, diarrhea, she used to eat them all her life, she noticed that there was a lot of potassium in the medicine. Doctor wanted to know if she would be able to take the Johnson and Johnson vaccine. He said if she got the second shot, of the Johnson and Johnson, that it would have to be a special case, like in a hospital setting, and there would have to be medical people in a medical center, to take care of her was she has a reaction to it as well. He advised that she take the Johnson and Johnson than not taking it, because by not taking it, she was very vulnerable to catching COVID 19. And patient wanted to know was it a preservative that was causing the reaction. It was reported that rash began around 10PM, bloody stool began between 11 PM and 12:30 AM, all other symptoms within 15-20 minutes, it began around 6PM, maybe sooner 5:55 PM, she was in denial, it felt like tongue and lips tingling, she did have a reaction before to a different shot. The anaphylactic reaction required emergency room visit. Patient was not hospitalized and was in observation in ER. On 08Mar2021, the patient recovered from blood in stool, rectal bleeding, and burning and itching with bleeding. The patient had not yet recovered from severe allergic reaction, hot face and neck was flushed, tingling in tongue, lips, face; lips were puffy, and rash. The outcome of throat felt tight, thought she was starting to shake, she was so tired, and swelling in lips was unknown.

The patient was hospitalized for sepsis due to a gallbladder attack from 25Feb2021 to 03Mar2021. The events gallbladder attack and sepsis required also an ER visit. They did not require a physician office visit. Additional clinical course of the events included the following details. Gallbladder attack turned into infection/sepsis quickly. She previously had an emergency stent placed in her bile duct and now there was a stone in the bile duct and she was unsure if it was related; they will either remove her gallbladder or place a permanent stent. They removed stones and "goop" and placed a stent. Her gallbladder still needed to be operated on, but she was not sick with sepsis anymore. Regarding gallbladder attack the patient reported that it was controlled until further tests and surgery were performed. They couldn't do the surgery due to the infection which had cleared up but she did not want the surgery right now.

Sepsis resolved the day she was discharged from hospital and when she was dismissed all tests were negative for sepsis. She went home on antibiotics for security for another week after discharge from hospital. Dizzy: it was just trying to get her strength up. She'll just be doing nothing and getting up too fast, it happened to any old person with blood pressure medicines. Dizziness began before she went into the hospital.

Covid Vaccine related ITP.......red pinpont rash on both legs, blood blisters on lips, tongue, gums and roof of mouth, blood streaks and bruises all over body, platelets dropped to 0 more than once. I was in Urgent Care, 2 ER's and hospitalized from March 14-24, 2021. I was given 84 bottles of immunoglobulin intravenously and high potency steroids (90 mg., 80 mg.). This did not bring my platelets up so our daughter contacted the wife of the physician who passed from this after his vaccine who in turn gave our daughter the name of another physician who had seen and treated this after the Covid vaccine. He,together with my physicians, came up with an aggressive treatment plan for me. I was given one Vincristine treatment and injections of Nplates to jumpstart my body. This had never before been seen where I was located, as the Covid vaccine is so new. I was a perfectly healthy woman who only took vitamins and had not even had a cold all winter. Everything else was ruled out.

Had headaches and felt nauseated; Had headaches and felt nauseated; Had a blood clot in her lungs; she had tripped and fallen; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 68-year-old female patient received the second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 MRNA VACCINE; solution for injection; Lot Number: EN6206) via an unspecified route of administration on 16Apr2021 at 10:00 ("around 10:00 or so"; at the age of 68-years-old) as a single dose in the left arm for COVID-19 immunisation (the patient was "fearful of the new variants and wanted to be extra protected against those variants.") Medical history included COVID in Dec2020 and uses oxygen (normally used oxygen, but not all the time), from an unspecified date and unspecified if ongoing. Medical history was also reported as none. Relevant family history related to the adverse event was reported as none. Concomitant medications (other products) were reported as none. The patient did not receive prior vaccinations, within 4 weeks prior, or on the same date as the COVID-19 vaccine. The patient previously received iodine contrast dye on an unspecified date for an unspecified indication and experienced anaphylactic shock. The patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 MRNA VACCINE; solution for injection; Lot Number: EN6207) via an unspecified route of administration on (at the age of 68-years-old) as a single dose in the left arm for COVID-19 immunisation and experienced did not feel well, felt achy and nauseated (captured in AER: 2021495492). On 27Apr2021 the patient experienced had a blood clot in her lungs and she had tripped and fallen and on unspecified dates the patient experienced had headaches and felt nauseated. The course of events was reported as follows: "After the second dose of the vaccine the patient felt fine, she felt pretty much okay. She attributed that to her having had COVID back in Dec2020 based on her biological knowledge. She ran this idea past a pharmacist that said that generally people might take the first dose of the COVID vaccine and be fine and then be worse on the second dose. But since she had COVID in Dec2020 her second dose of the COVID vaccine was the problem like how people's antibodies were already built up and had that reaction so that is why she was fine. She was walking out of the hospital on 27Apr2021, there were people that had crossed in front of them very quickly and her foot had hit the foot of a lady that was pushing a gurney. The patient tripped and fell down and she was taken to the emergency room. In the emergency room, a doctor did some tests and shockingly the doctor said that the patient had a blood clot in her lungs. A physician's assistant told the patient that she needed to have a computerized tomography (CT) scan done. The patient needed to go home to take care of responsibilities there, so she walked out of the hospital. She did not know if she had a blood clot in her lungs or not. Her doctor said that the blood clot in her lungs was based off of two blood values. One was the d-dimer that had a reference value of < 500 and her level was 1,079 and the other blood work was troponin-I but it looked like it should be in the normal range because her level was less than 0.03 and the reference range was 0-0.04, so she would think that she would fall into the normal range. The d-dimer one was kind of scary. She had other tests done. They did a regular complete blood count (CBC) on her, another kind of test and another set of blood values but from looking at the results she was only a little low on a couple of things. They did not do the test with the contrast, but they did take an x-ray of her lung. The technician had found out that she had not had a Computed axial tomography (CAT) scan in a while, since she apparently needed them periodically, and she felt uneasy because that technician was urging her to get a CAT scan. The patient she did not know if these results were relevant or from the COVID vaccine. She did not understand this but when she was looking at the lab notice there was a note that the patient should be monitored for B Type Natriuretic Peptide (b/np) levels. It had the reference range on that one but when she read it, it looked like hers lied within the normal range. After the second dose she just had a headache but did not feel sick, but a week later they were telling her that she had a possible blood clot in her lungs. The patient was concerned at this point because she had no reason as to why she would have a possible blood clot. When she gets exhausted her oxygen drops and sometimes it will without her being exhausted. She was scared to go back to that one hospital. She was thinking about going to another hospital that was 60 miles away. If they would need to keep her overnight, she would need to make arrangements for her animals. She has had headaches, but they may be due to stress. She did not feel sick, other than she had been nauseated. The patient stated that she was not saying that what was reported on report 1 of 2 was due to the Pfizer COVID vaccine but why would they say that she had a blood clot too." The clinical outcomes of the events had a blood clot in her lungs, she had tripped and fallen, had headaches, and felt nauseated were all unknown.

Then for weeks I had bowel inflammation (pellet poop) and on 4-20-2021 I went to the hospital with left heart pain, left shoulder pain, very fatigued, and difficulty breathing. This got worse over time and I ran a low grade fever, and doctors told me to take Tylenol. I flew on 5-17-2021 and on 5-21-2021, I was admitted to the hospital for 13 days, on oxygen, with pericarditis and pneumonia. Left lung had 600 mL fluid. No infection was found and final diagnosis was Post Pfizer covid 19 vaccine inflammatory syndrome with pericarditis. My miracle drug was anakinra injections which stopped my inflammatory response. I hope this helps others as I almost died. Dr made the diagnosis and I have all reports. My WBC (16.3) and CRP (298) rose until anakinra injections.

Patient is a 69-year-old woman with newly diagnosed pericarditis in March 2021, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and hypothyroidism, who presented to the Emergency Department (ED) with progressively worsening chest pain, dyspnea, and fatigue. Patient was in her usual state of health until 3/1/2021, when she developed sudden-onset pain "across the entire chest". She shares that her symptoms "came out of the blue", as "suddenly one day, everything just hurt". She saw her primary care physician, who initially felt her symptoms were due to acid reflux. As such, the patient started "eating antacids and omeprazole like candy". However, her chest pain persisted, prompting her to follow up with her primary care physician on 3/16/2021. At that time, ECG reportedly showed normal sinus rhythm and no acute changes. CT of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis with contrast showed abnormal enhancement and thickening of the pericardium with trace pericardial fluid, consistent with pericarditis. The patient was therefore started on colchicine and an ibuprofen taper. On 4/5/2021, Patient sent a myVM portal message to her primary care physician and cardiologist, expressing her belief that her chest pain has remained unchanged over the past month. She continues to experience a constant burning sensation throughout her chest, aggravated by deep inspiration and alleviated by lying flat on her back. She shares that walking up the stairs at home leaves her "breathless". Associated symptoms include subjective fevers, chills, and night sweats. Given these symptoms, Patient underwent a chest x-ray, which showed findings consistent with an enlarging pericardial effusion. Patient was then advised to present to the ED for further workup as an inpatient. At time of hospital admission, patient endorses persistent chest pain during inspiration. Prior to 3/1/2021, she has never experienced these symptoms and reports no history of pericarditis. The most strenuous physical activity she has undertaken in the last month include working in the garden and caring light boxes down the stairs. She is most concerned about the fluid around her heart. Patient reports no nausea, vomiting, palpitations, constipation, diarrhea, or abdominal pain. Of note, the patient developed pericarditis 10 days after her second COVID-19 vaccine. Hospital Course # Sub-acute pericarditis with enlarging pericardial effusion Pericarditis initially diagnosed in March 2021, thought to be potentially from her COVID-19 vaccine given time course as no other clear etiology apparent. Pt was hemodynamically stable with an elevated jugular venous pressure at time of admission, with CXR consistent with an enlarging pericardial effusion. Echo 04/05 with small circumferential pericardial effusion but no tamponade physiology. Cardiac MRI on 4/7 with enlargement of moderate-sized pericardial effusion but otherwise negative exam, with no evidence of myocarditis or infiltrative myocardial process. ANA screen negative, rheumatoid factor and anti-CCP not elevated Blood cultures x 2 with no growth - CRP continued to remain > 160 with ibupofen and colchicine. Prednisone 20 mg PO daily was added on 4/7, with subsequent improvement in patient's symptoms. - Discharged on regimen of prednisone 20 mg PO daily and colchicine 0.3 mg PO daily (reduced from 0.6 mg daily that she was taking prior to admission). She will also continue using ibuprofen 800 mg BID. - Follow-up with Dr (cardiology) next week to follow-up on hospitalization and decide upon tapering plan for her medications

Pulmonary embolism; tested positive for Covid/shortness of breath/severe cough/headache; tested positive for Covid/shortness of breath/severe cough/headache; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable nurse (patient). The nurse reported similar events for herself and her daughter. This is the first of two cases. A 69-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine), the first dose administered in the right arm on 14Mar2021 (Batch/Lot Number: EN6208) and the second dose administered in the left arm on 03Apr2021 at 10:45 (Batch/Lot Number: ER8737), both intramuscular as a single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included diabetes and high blood pressure both diagnosed 5 years ago, GERD and hypercholesteremia, all ongoing. The patient was a former smoker but has been smoke-free for 15 years. Concomitant medications included rosuvastatin calcium (CRESTOR) taken for hypercholesterolaemia from an unspecified start date and ongoing; lisinopril (manufacturer unknown) taken for high blood pressure from an unspecified start date and ongoing; metformin (manufacturer unknown) taken for diabetes from an unspecified start date and ongoing and omeprazole (manufacturer unknown) taken for gastrooesophageal reflux disease from an unspecified start date and ongoing. The patient did not have any prior vaccinations within 4 weeks of the COVID vaccine. The patient reported that she and her daughter had their second dose of the vaccine on 03Apr2021. The patient tested positive for Covid. The patient developed shortness of breath on Sunday, 11Apr2021, and ended up with a pulmonary embolism. The patient doesn't know if she was possibly infected before they got the second vaccine and were asymptomatic and unknown or did they get infected when got they got the vaccine with thousands of other people. At the time of the report, the patient was mostly resolved and they are all home. She became short of breath, had severe cough and headache and she went to the ER and on the CAT scan they discovered she had a small pulmonary emboli. She was hospitalized from 11Apr2021-12Apr2021. The patient was given Eliquis and monoclonal antibodies as treatment for the events. The patient stated that she will be on Eliquis for the next month because of the pulmonary embolism. The patient did not need any additional therapies for COVID-19. The patient did not have any pre-existing diseases that worsened during the SARS-CoV2 infection. The outcome of the event 'tested positive for Covid/shortness of breath/severe cough/headache' was not recovered while the outcome of the event pulmonary embolism was recovering. The relatedness of the suspect drug to the reactions was unknown.; Sender's Comments: Based on the information provided by the reporter, it appears reasonable that the suspect drug did not contribute to the development of the reported event pulmonary embolism, that most likely was related to the concurrent development of COVID-19. 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.,Linked Report(s) : US-PFIZER INC-2021413236 same reporter and drug, similat event, different patient

Outcome of the events was recovering. Patient was not diagnosed with COVID prior to vaccination and had not been tested post-vaccination.; Sender's Comments: Based on the available information and known product profile, the causal relationship between the reported DVT and the use of BNT162B2 cannot be fully excluded. However, the age of the patient and use of estradiol may confound the reported drug event pair. The case will be assessed further upon receipt of additional information. 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.

She couldn't talk; seemed completely out of it; swollen lymph nodes/enlarged lymph node in her right lung/swollen lymph nodes on her right breast; mass in her throat; panic attack; experiencing some difficulty breathing; anxiety; This is a spontaneous report from contactable consumers (one is the patient's husband) received via medical information team and from a Pfizer-sponsored program. A 69-year-old female patient received her second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE; lot number: EP7533, expiration date not reported), via an unspecified route of administration on 11Apr2021 12:00 (at the age of 69-years-old) at 2nd dose, single in the right arm for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included ongoing Hashimoto's disease from an unspecified date (had it for years), basal cell cancer, and the patient's immune system was compromised. It was reported that the patient's father had lymphoma and passed away due to kidney cancer. The patient's mother died at the age of 97-years-old, and was healthy. Concomitant medication included levothyroxine sodium (SYNTHROID) from an unspecified date and ongoing for Hashimoto's thyroiditis. Historical vaccine included first dose of BNT162B2 (lot number: ER8727) received on 21Mar2021 15:00 in the left arm for COVID-19 immunisation. It was reported that the patient experienced swelling on left arm where the injection was and little bit of swelling in the lymph nodes in armpit. The patient's height was 163cm, and weight was 68.01kg; both on unspecified dates. He patient's husband reported that something was happening with his wife (patient), and he cannot find the patient's symptoms on the website. It was reported that the patient had the second shot of Pfizer vaccine 3 weeks ago, this past Sunday. The second shot was given in the patient's right arm, and the first shot was given in the left arm. Everything was normal for close to three weeks. Then on Sunday, on 24Apr2021, the patient lost her voice all of a sudden. She couldn't talk, seemed to be completely out of it, and the patient's husband thought that she was having a stroke. They went to the ER (emergency room). The doctor though that the problem was that the scented detergent the patient used for her mask. The doctor thought that it caused a severe case of laryngitis. The patient was sent home. The patient's voice was still weird last week. It was also reported that the patient's right arm, and breast were swelling. On 2021, the patient experienced some difficulty breathing and anxiety. Two days ago, on 02May2021, the patient noticed that her right breast on the same side as the second shot was enlarged, heavy, and firm. The patient has no history of breast cancer. A couple of days prior (in 2021), the patient's arm was swollen. It was her whole arm. The patient was scheduled to see her dermatologist at 11:30 this morning since she was having a basal cell cancer removed from her face. The patient was all upset and hyper and was having trouble breathing a little bit. The patient's husband thought that it was stress. The patient was scheduled for surgery on her face on Wednesday this week and the patient had a panic attack on an unspecified date in 2021 so the patient was brought to the emergency room. The patient's husband stated that this was because the patient was scheduled for a surgery for basal cell cancer removal, and that the patient's breast being so large, the patient was worried. The patient had Hashimoto's disease for years, and her immune system was compromised. The extra swelling could be because her immune system was working overtime. The patient's voice was good for a while, but today, she was losing it again. The patient uses different laundry detergent now. The patient's husband stated that these never happened before, and that it could be coincidental. The patient had no reactions prior to the 3-week period after the shot. The patient was wheezing now, and the patient's husband may need to call an ambulance. The patient's husband further stated that he took the patient to the hospital (emergency room) this morning because the patient was wheezing and sounded horrible. The hospital record stated that the patient had an enlarged lymph node in her right lung and that her right breast was swollen and infected. The patient was currently in the emergency room and was not admitted to the hospital. The patient was going to have a biopsy today. After the patient's first dose, she had a little swelling on her left arm where the injection was and a little bit of swelling in the lymph nodes in her armpit. The patient's husband noticed that the patient's right arm where the second injection site was, not just the site but her whole right arm swelled, from shoulder to wrist. The patient's husband also noticed that the patient's right breast was huge. On 05May2021, the patient had MRI and CAT scans which showed "extensive mediastinal mass effect continuous from right to left side with greatest dimension of 10cm. Mid left pillar idiopathy and subcarinal area neoplastic disease". She was having a biopsy done today at the hospital". The patient's lymph nodes were swollen in the area between her lungs. On 05May2021, the patient had her COVID test which showed negative result. It was then reported that the biopsy was going to be either Ebus (as reported), which is where a tube was put down the throat, and if that did not work, there would be a mediastinoscopy performed and after that, there is a possibility that CAT scan will be done. The patient's husband reported that on Apr2021, the patient's right breast was diagnosed with cellulitis so the patient received a couple of IV (intravenous antibiotics) for the breast and it slightly improved. The patient's cellulitis could lead to sepsis that's why she was treated with IV antibiotics. The patient's MRI on an unspecified date showed that the patient's breast was clear of any swollen lymph nodes and potential cancer. The patient was also given IV antibiotics for breast enlargement, breast swelling, and breast infection. On Apr2021, the patient experienced side effects mass in her throat, swollen lymph nodes on her right breast, and cellulitis. The patient will be undergoing a biopsy today, because they think that patient has lymphoma. It was reported that the patient received her vaccination at a huge vaccination setup at a local high school. The patient was hospitalized for 3 days (unspecified dates) due to the events breast enlargement, swelling arm, breast swelling, breast cellulitis, and breast infection. The patient's husband also stated that the patient was brought to the emergency room for because the right arm started swelling and that the right breast was huge, then was taken to the hospital room that night. No other vaccine received within 4 weeks prior to the COVID vaccine. Outcome of the events breast cellulitis, and loss of voice was recovering, for events swelling arm and panic attack was recovered on an unspecified date, and for other events was unknown.

69 y.o. female that presented to my office with a 5 day history of weakness on her right side. In particular, she states her right arm, right face, and right torso was numb when she woke up on Saturday morning, May 29th. She initially thought she just had some radicular symptoms going down her right arm as she has had before. However, she does admit that the facial numbness did concern her. She had a headache that morning, but no headache after that. She states that some of the sensation has come back a little bit in the right arm and hand. However, she still can not hold anything without up falling out of her hand because she can not feel it. She denies any weakness in the right side of her body. She denies any facial droop. She does think her vision may have gotten a little bit worse, but this is difficult to tell because she does usually have poor vision. Because of her symptoms in the office, I thought it was best that I admit her for observation in order to rule out acute stroke. I sent her for a stat head CT which did come back showing a subacute left-sided CVA. Further workup is underway. Active Hospital Problems Diagnosis Date Noted ? Right sided numbness 06/02/2021 ?

On April 3rd I woke up with a fast heart beat. I have one of the meters that give oxygen and beats per minute and it was registering at 41 and then it wasn't registering at all. After an hour I was dizzy and light headed. I was wasn't feeling right. I went to ER and my heart was beating at 240 beats per minute. They give me diltiazem. They though it was Atrial fibrillation. At 9:15 my heart went into a normal rhythm. They put me on diltiazem and put me on Eliquis to prevent strokes until I could get to a doctor later on in the week. When I left the hospital it was at normal heart beats at 72 beats per minute. I went to Dr. on April 12th. He thought it was SVT or Atrial fibrillation for sure. He referred me to an electro physiologist. I went in for an ablations on May 4th. They suspected I had Atrial fibrillation and SVT before the vaccine.

I had the PFIZER EW0167, at @1pm on 5/5/2021. Thé second dose was scheduled for 5/26/21; however, I canceled it because of what I went through. Three days after taking the vaccine, Saturday, May 8, 2021, I had four mini-strokes simultaneously. 911 was called and was taken to Hospital. On Friday, May 14, 2021, I had another stroke. After being discharged on Tuesday, May 18, 2021, I returned to the hospital on Wednesday, 28, 2021, with weakness and unable to stand or walk without two assists. I was very happy it was not another stroke, but my potassium and magnesium were so depleted, that the doctors were trying to figure out what happened. I had three treatments of potassium, two orange drinks and one through intravenous, and four treatments of magnesium with two pills each time. I am afraid to take the second vaccine as I now had six strokes; also, the cardiologist have found that my heart was spitting out lots of blood clots at an alarming rate, so they had to give me I.V Heparin, now I am on Eliquis. I am asking to look into this, as the vaccine is new. I was excited to get the vaccine, now I am honestly scared. Thank you,

So I had the shot on March 28, 2021 and let's see if I can remember the date, I'll get my calendar which will help me a little bit, so it started the end of April 2021. I noticed a difference in my breathing, I had not been active and I just didn't feel very good. On the 28th of April I was feeling very weak, feeling like a wimp, I couldn't do anything without feeling very exhausted. Then on May 5 2021 I told my husband I just was not feeling right, I had to sit down just when getting dressed. I went to the bathroom and I felt like something was really wrong, I could not even walk around without feeling tired. On May 5 2021 I called my son who is an RN and he took my BP and heart rate, but my oxygen was 91 and then 87 again when he tested again. He said he felt I had a pulmonary embolism, they called my cardiologist. The DR told me to go to the hospital and they did an EKG and took me to an ER room to do a chest x-ray. They said there was something on my chest so they did bloodwork. He then said I had blood clots on both my lungs. Then later on that night they did ultrasounds of my legs. They found a deep vein thrombosis. They then broke the news that I was not going home, that they were going to admit me. I ended up in a monitored room for four days. They put me on oxygen and wires. 4,000 units of heparin drip w/ 2,0000 units per hour. They then switched me to Luvanox and Coumadin. They could not figure out why this happened to me. They found no infections, nothing cancerous or anything. They sent me home with blood thinners (coumadin) all the time. Then two weeks later I woke up in the middle of the night with a lot of pressure on my chest and I went to the ER again. I was never admitted, they just checked me. Then two weeks later again it happened and I went to on call, they took pictures of my heart and everything again and they could not find anything. They did a study of sleep on me and they found I have a sleep apnea problem. They are recently now working on my sleeping problem and I will be admitted and studied over night on the machines. In between all this I also went to my PCD and now that is to current, up to date is what has been happening recently.

She says that they treated her and she went home, and when she saw her cardiologist they said they don't know if the vaccine had to do with this, and to report it. She says a week later, on Friday a week ago, she started feeling funny standing while she was working on the computer in the middle of the afternoon, she felt like her ears were vibrating, which was very unusual, and she didn't know what was wrong so she looked at her Cardia app, and her heart was in normal sinus, and she checked her blood pressure which for her was sky high, up to 190/100 which her blood pressure is usually very low. She provided a second blood pressure that call handler was unable to capture and caller did not clarify as she no longer had her log with her. She says for hours her blood pressure (BP) went up and down, which was a similar or same thing as what happened that night she went to the ER with her atrial fibrillation, her BP would go up and down like riding a wave. She says needless to say, she has two questions: she says she doesn't know if there have been reports of that vaccine making A-fib worse, she is scared to get her second dose which she was supposed to get Monday a week ago, but put off primarily before the second thing with BP, she thought she would wait because she could hardly move her left arm so she put it off until the next Wednesday, She says that her second dose is now scheduled for 03Mar, so 4 weeks between doses, and she is a little afraid to get it because she doesn't know if her response was over the top or caused the other things, going to the ER with A-fib was terrifying, and she doesn't want that to happen again. She says people say that she has got to get her second dose because she won't be protected, so she would also like to know if it is possible for her to get antigens early on. She says that she had a tetanus shot 40 years ago, and had a horrible reaction after it, then years later they did a titer for tetanus and they said she would likely never need a tetanus shot again since she had built up such a high level and would never need it again. She says is it possible that she had enough immunity that she wouldn't need the second dose, or would there be an antigen test that could tell her if she would need a second dose, if so what is that test? She says she is afraid the next dose will kill her. AE treatment included says that when she went to the ER it was about 12:30AM when she arrived, they did not admit her. She says on the way to the ER in the EMS truck they gave her Cardiozyme to get her blood pressure going down and gave her 1000 cc fluids, and Metoprolol, another dose. She says that the Cardiozyme was IV push in the ambulance, she doesn't have the information to provide for all of the heart stuff they gave her, NDC/LOT/EXP: Unknown for Metoprolol or Cardiozyme. She clarifies that she takes Metoprolol normally every day that they have had her on that is extended release and she takes it at night. She says she had taken that at 09:30PM, and by the time she got there to the ER after midnight a little, they after gave her another to see if it would bring her heart rate down. She says that they kept her there a couple of hours, until her heart rate was normal, though her BP was up a bit. She says that they told her they could admit her but she said she would rather go home if they thought it was safe, and she went home. She says that her sister came home and stayed with her, whose husband is a cardiothoracic surgeon. Metoprolol: Caller says that the Metoprolol she is taking is in a pharmacy bottle that says use by 08Feb2022, it does not have an official label, the NDC or LOT are not on there. She says that they gave her 60 to take of regular Metoprolol, not extended release, which is 25mg to take twice a day by mouth, so 60 tabs and she would need to get refills as it is a months worth. Metoprolol extended release NDC/LOT/EXP not provided when queried. She clarifies that the not extended release is called Toprol/Metoprolol Tartrate 25mg. Caller says that her swelling lymph node limited the use of her arm, she can't pick up anything or lift her self up while moving in the bed, she is miserable, it hurts to put pressure on her arm and she can hold her arm up and move it around she can do anything with not holding anything, she feels a tightness there, even when she breathes or coughs. She says her left arm was sore initially for 3-4 days after getting the shot but the soreness left. She says she was told on 03Feb that she had swollen lymph nodes, which was two days after the shot, but she couldn't feel them then, she couldn't tell, and had no pain. She says it was two weeks later that happened, it was so odd that it was two weeks before it was hurting then got progressively worse. Caller says that Tuesday a week ago she thought she must have done weights with her arms since her muscles were sore, but it was only on one side and she hadn't done any exercise since after she went to the ER she was being careful what she did, and she thought she strained her arm and realized what it was, it has gotten progressively worse over the last week. She says last night she started looking up remedies, she has been putting ice on it, and the clinic said use warm, and she rubbed castor oil on it last night in the shower then this morning she massaged her arm with castor oil and put a warm wash cloth over it. She says that castor oil has anti inflammatory properties. She says she has not noticed a difference yet, but she has only done it two times. She says it also said she can take Aleve or Ibuprofen, they told her at the ER, they also started her on Eliquis the night she was there, which she had never been on, they didn't consider her A-f fib bad enough. She says that is what has her concerned, she got the shot then 6 days later A-fib made her feel like she couldn't breathe. She says also her BP and heart rate going back up made her sick to her stomach that subsided when her BP was coming down but then it started going back up again, when she went to the ER that Saturday night on the 6th but by the time she got there it was the 7th. Outcome of the events was unknown.; Sender's Comments: The possibility that suspect drug may have contributed to the reported event cannot be excluded.

A 70-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), via unspecified route of administration on 15Mar2021 (at the age of 70 years) at a single dose in the left arm for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included lung issues and allergic asthma. Family history included brothers and sisters who died of lung issues and third sibling sister died many years ago due to allergic asthma. The patient previously took flu vaccine for immunization and experienced severe pain throughout her whole body. On 15Mar2021, patient received the first dose of Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. Later on, that day when she got home after receiving the vaccine, underneath the arm where the injection site was, a big red circle was noted and it was swollen, beneath this area was a red circle where blood clotted or something, she would get hot and cold and take her clothes off because she was sweating but did not have fever, there was pain in her chest, stomach, back and head, wheezing, shortness of breath, fatigue, swelling of the face, pain in left elbow.

At the hospital her temperature was 98.9 F on 23Mar2021, but 97.1F - 97.7F is her normal temperature. She went to the Pulmonary doctor also, but was getting a second opinion because she knew it could be life threatening. The pulmonary doctor made light of it saying they were just creases, like creases in pants. Patient said crease was a far cry from partial lung collapse on both bases and the Pulmonary doctor also said that it is in the upper part of the lung also. This scared her and made her think nobody cared. She did not know if she should provide the information because the doctor did not seem to believe that that her symptoms were coming from receiving the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. She guessed she should provide the information because Pfizer does research. She wanted to know how long do the side effects last and if she should take the second dose. The outcome of the events underneath the arm where the injection site was, a big red circle was noted and it was swollen/under her nose and left elbow were red, pain in her chest, stomach, back and head, wheezing, shortness of breath, fatigue, swelling of the face, pain in left elbow, goes to bathroom and bowel was not emptying the way it should, rib cage is going on the side of body noticed this thumping, lips were red, throat was red, been sick and just laying around, eyes were red was not recovered; while unknown for the other events.

Treatment team Sepsis Principal problem Discharge Summary Inpatient Discharge Summary BRIEF OVERVIEW Admitting Provider: Discharge Provider: Admission Date: 3/26/2021 Discharge Date: 4/5/2021 Discharge Diagnosis Severe sepsis COVID-19 pneumonia Acute hypoxic respiratory failure Atrial fibrillation/atrial flutter with RVR DETAILS OF HOSPITAL STAY Presenting Problem/History of Present Illness/Reason for Admission patient is an 70 y.o. female with a past medical history of atrial fibrillation chronically anticoagulated with Xarelto, S/P ablation x3 at the Medical Center, and sinus bradycardia who presented to the ED for evaluation of general malaise, shortness of breath, loss of taste and smell, coughing, and shortness of breath and was found to have sepsis due to COVID-19 pneumonia in the ED. Patient states that over the past week she has been extremely weak, with nausea, diarrhea, but denies vomiting. She also reports that her appetite has decreased and noted that the symptoms has worsened and as a result she presented to the ED for further evaluation.Patient denies abdominal pain, lightheadedness, or chest pain. Upon further evaluation and tests in the ED, she was noted to have severe sepsis as indicated by vital signs and chest x-ray imaging indicating groundglass pneumonia typical of COVID-19 infection. She also had COVID-19 swab which returned positive result. Additionally, patient was noted to be hypoxia with SPO2 of 88% requiring oxygen supplementation. Hospital Course patient was admitted to a Hospital due to shortness of breath, with fatigue and weakness, and was found to have severe sepsis with endorgan damage of acute hypoxic respiratory failure due to COVID-19 pneumonia on admission. Imaging study showed no evidence of PE, but did show evidence of bilateral pulmonary infiltrates. Pulmonary was consulted, she was started on remdesivir with Decadron. She had an increase in oxygen requirement to the maximum of 10 L via specialty nasal cannula during the admission. With the treatment of remdesivir and Decadron she had improvement in her hypoxia, and was ultimately weaned to room air by the time of discharge. She underwent a desaturation study on the day of discharge and determined that she did not need any supplemental oxygen. She completed her entire steroid and remdesivir course during the admission. She had no evidence of superimposed bacterial pneumonia. Her hospitalization was complicated by atrial fibrillation/flutter with RVR, that improved with metoprolol administration. This was thought to be precipitated by her severe hypoxia with acute illness. She was kept on metoprolol 25 mg twice daily on discharge, and will need to follow-up with her cardiologist at Medical Center to determine if she can come off of this again. She will continue to take her Xarelto as previously prescribed. She was medically stable for discharge on 4/5 in stable condition, and will need to follow-up with PCP within 7 days, with cardiology within 2 weeks at the hospital, and pulmonary within 2 weeks as well.

She was positive on her COVID test, she forgets what was that it said when it came back, it didn't say positive, it said something else, she went back and forth after that first COVID test. She says it said detected, it didn't say anything else. She says after that she came home and self quarantined for 14 days, then went back for piece of mind to get a negative test, but they said positive, so then she quarantined 21 days that time. She says she went back and they tested her with the gold test which takes longer to her understanding to study that, and that came back negative. She says after 21 days she built up enough antibodies for it to be negative. She clarifies that she had COVID and COVID testing done before getting the doses of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, before she got her her vaccinations. She had no other vaccinations on the dates she got her Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine doses or in the four weeks prior. She uses Lysol wipes and Clorox to clean her house and her door knobs.

She says her neurologist and she are both hitting their heads on the floor and trying to think of what combination of meds could stop her seizures and convulsions to get her down to where she is not having multiple petit mal every day. She says she used to see her neurologist every 2-3 months, now she sees him every month. She says every 2-3 months he changes her medication. She says he has her on two drugs now, and he increased them both, they are hoping to get answers, if her seizures have not calmed down and gone away he is going to take her off Keppra. She is taking the Keppra generic, named Levetiracetam, she takes 500mg, four tablets in the morning and four at night. She says the other anti seizure medication is Clobazam, she takes two pills a day. She says each time he puts her on a different drug it is another chemical change to her body and another expense to be constantly changing drugs. She says her neurologist might change her medications again when she goes back May 20th for her follow up. She says there could be drug interactions and stuff that her neurologist might not be aware of, she is not having a fun time. She says her neurologist tried to put her on two different drugs to good take care of the problem, one was Keppra and her insurance denied that one so he said let's try this one and put it thru her insurance for authorization and it was accepted but they said they don't carry it and get her private pharmacist. The outcome of Petite mal seizures and Grand mal seizure was not recovered, of other event was unknown.

Additional Vaccines Administered on Same Date of the Pfizer Suspect If applicable, list all vaccines administered on same date with the Pfizer vaccine considered as suspect was none. any other vaccinations within four weeks prior to the first administration date of the suspect vaccine and AE(s) following prior vaccinations were none. On 04Apr2021, about 3 days after the first Covid 19 vaccine the patient experienced stroke, stumbling at work and when she started talking, she was slurring. The patient was hospitalized for stroke from 04Apr2021 to 07Apr2021. It was reported that, Patient received her first Covid 19 vaccine on 03Apr2021 and on 07Apr2021 the Patient had a stroke. The caller's doctor was not certain her stroke was caused by the Covid 19 vaccine or not. The caller's cardiologist said the stroke came from the caller's heart because 6 weeks prior the caller had experienced palpitations. The caller went to the hospital to get her second Covid 19 vaccine but the staff at the hospital would not give her the vaccine requiring the caller's neurologist to sign off on her being able to receive the second vaccine. The caller is well outside the 42-day window to receive the second Covid 19 vaccine. The caller also has a history of anaphylaxis to a sulfa medication. The caller did not mention a specific sulfa medication. She was in the hospital when she took the sulfa medication and now carries an epi-pen.

When probing for details related to the caller's stroke she reports she didn't notice it at the time but looking back she was stumbling a little at work. The first real symptom was she felt like something was coming on. She sat down and tried to put her right arm on the arm rest of the chair but her right arm had a mind of its own. Her right arm was not weak it just wouldn't go on the arm rest. She was sitting in a high chair and she was trying to put her right foot on the rail of the chair and her right leg just wouldn't do what she wanted it to do. She called for help and a girl came over to help her and when she started talking, she was slurring. 911 was called.

A 70-year-old elderly female received the second dose of intramuscular BNT162B2 (solution for injection; Lot EL9262 and expiry information not provided) as a single dose in the right arm on 03Feb2021 at 08:30 (at 70-years-old) for COVID-19 immunization. Relevant medical history included ongoing osteoporosis (Oct2020), osteopenia (2018), ongoing hypothyroidism, hysterectomy (1992; woke up from surgery, felt like a different person), sinus disorder. hypertension, iodine allergy, environmental allergies (allergic to just about everything that grows out of the ground) especially pollen, and Ex-smoker (quit smoking several years ago, lost 40 pounds), Relevant family history included tachycardia and arrhythmia and cardiac arrest in father (daddy had tachycardia; he did have an arrhythmia she thinks, his heart shocked into rhythm; her father has been dead since 2004 (at age 82). Concomitant medications included bupropion hydrochloride (WELLBUTRIN) for smoking cessation therapy from unspecified date; acetylsalicylic acid (ASPIRIN ) for prophylaxis from estradiol ongoing from an unspecified date; hydrochlorothiazide for blood pressure from an unspecified start date to 2021; estradiol for osteoporosis ongoing from an unspecified date; levothyroxine for thyroid disorder from 2020; cetirizine hydrochloride (ZYRTEC ALLERGY) for sinus disorder/ hypersensitivity, seasonal allergy ongoing from 2020; atorvastatin (LIPITOR) for blood cholesterol from an unspecified start date to 2021; amlodipine taken for hypertension from an unspecified date; estrogens conjugated (PREMARIN) for hysterectomy from an unspecified date; levothyroxine sodium (SYNTHROID) for thyroid disorder from an unspecified date; Vitamin B complex (VITAMIN B) for an unspecified indication from an unspecified date; Vitamin D3 (VITAMIN D3) for bone density decreased from an unspecified date; calcium for bone density decreased from an unspecified date; and Vitamin K2. The patient previously received COVID-19 immunization with the first dose of intramuscular BNT162B2 (solution for injection; Lot EL3249 expiry information not provided) as a single dose in the right arm on 13Jan2021 at 08:30 (at 70 years-old). The patient previously received immunization with shingles vaccination with what she thinks was the second dose on 25Feb2020 (at 69-years-old). The patient previously received immunization with flu shot in Aug2020 (at 70-years-old). On 19Feb2021 at 08:30 the patient experienced a stroke and was hospitalized on that same date after physician office and emergency department visits. The patient reported that they do not know what caused the stroke but hypothesized that it was atrial fibrillation throwing a clot. The patient reported that she has never had atrial fibrillation and had never been treated by a cardiologist until she had the stroke. The patient explained that the only symptom she had was that her right hand went limp, and she could not grab or do anything with it. The patient reported that it was when she called her daughter, that she realized that she had aphasia as well. The patient explained that she had a monitor implanted in her chest, not a pacemaker, just a monitor like a chip. The patient explained that the monitor faxed anything that was going on with her heart to her cardiologist's office. The patient also mentioned that since the stroke she has put on weight/is overweight (120 pounds prior to stroke); and she has had a little more anxiety, so she does take it twice a day. A computerized tomogram (CT) scan head and neck with contrast obtained on 19Feb2021 showed two possible areas of developing peripheral infarction involving the left frontal lobe and left parietal lobe, likely embolic in nature. No thromboembolism in circle of Willis, but micro emboli are possible beyond the visuals of the CTA; no flow limiting stenosis in neck. An echocardiogram obtained on 20Feb2021 was normal. A complete blood count (CBC) and lipids obtained on unspecified dates were unknown results. On 04Jul2021 the patient's blood pressure was 95/61. The patient was discharged from the hospital on 21Feb2021. The outcome of the events stroke and hypothesized that it was atrial fibrillation throwing a clot was recovered with sequalae. The outcome of the event put on weight since the stroke/overweight was recovered on an unspecified date in 2021. The outcome of the anxiety was unknown.

She does have prior anaphylaxis reaction to pineapples for which she carries and epi Pen but has never needed to use. Cardiac exam RRR Lungs CTA bilat HEENT, no visible erythema of face or tongue and no noteable facial swelling She was agreeable to 25 mg dose of diphenhydramine and another 15 minute observation. During this time, she began to feel anxious and a mild headache. Vitals at that time were notable for bp 178/81, HR 101 and o2 sat 98%. Still no SOB, facial swelling or other new complaint. She felt improvement in anxiety within 5 minutes, and repeat vitals in 10 min with BP 152/83, HR 89 and O2 sats 96% She still continued with mild sensation change of tongue, but no facial swelling. She does have benedryl at home but I also sent her home with additional 25 mg dose in case she noted recurrent symptoms on the way home . She understands to seek emergency care with any worsening symptoms, or new SOB or facial swelling. She can also use her EPI pen if needed. She felt comfortable returning home- husband picked her up. I will call her to check in this evening and in the morning and will provide updated recommendations regarding second dose of vaccination. I spoke with patient at 8:09 pm - she was at home- feeling much better, however, she did take the second diphenhydramine on the way home, as she began to feel she was having some swelling between her eyes. No SOB Or trouble swallowing. This improved with the second benedryl and has not recurred. She will take an additional 50 mg benedryl before bed, and then she awakes before 6 am- if she has any residual symptoms she will take another dose. Again, she understands to seek emergency care with any worsening symptoms, or new SOB or facial swelling. She can also use her EPI pen if needed. She felt comfortable with this plan. We also reviewed current CDC guidelines and she understands at this time we would not recommend she receive the second Vaccination. She will continue to follow CDC in the event that this recommendation changes. I will submit a VAERS report after following up with her in the morning. ADDENDUM 2/3/21: I spoke with patient again on 2/3/21 at 07:45 am. She is feeling almost completely back to baseline this morning, but planning to take 25 mg diphenhydramine this morning as well. She does note mild headache, which is not abnormal for her. No residual tongue sensitivity or facial swelling. She noted that when she got home last night, she felt very sleepy and sedated from the diphenhydramine and went to bed, and did not take an additional dose of diphenhydramine last night. No SOB, trouble swallowing or any new complaint. No urticaria or itching. We reviewed current CDC recommendations to decline second vaccination given her moderate severe allergic symptoms within first 4 hours of first vaccination. She will follow up with PCP or kidney specialist if she has any continued concern with ongoing symptoms or new issues. She was very appreciative of the followup and care provided.

Coli bacteremia in setting of liver abscess, Cholelithiasis without acute cholecystitis, Atrial Fibrillation with rapid ventricular response, Transaminitis (which resolved). Patient was appropriately treated for these conditions. Also, her known uncontrolled diabetes was treated. Per an Infection Disease note on 3/9/21: The patient has had hx of biliary colic (self diagnosis) now with discovery of non-obstructive cholelithiasis on RUQ US it is plausible that the abscess originated from self limiting cholecystitis/cholangitis which would be consistent with recent abdominal pain exacerbated with oral intake. Difficult to state definitively any relation to COVID-19 vaccination, though may have resulted from associated dehydration.

Six days after receiving the vaccine I woke up on Friday, March 12, with a complete feeling of exhaustion. Weakness was extreme in my whole left side and could barely put weight on the left side. I thought this would pass so tried to get along. The next day, Saturday, March 13, the complete exhaustion was even worse. Trying to get out of bed was very hard. I called a friend and went to hospital here . I was admitted, tested, and kept for several days. The report came back that I had a series of "mini" strokes on the right side of my brain, affecting the left side of my body. I could no longer walk at all without aide of person or a walker, After that I was taken to rebab, . I was given pt, OT, etc, and discharged several days later. No doctor or staff could tell me whether this was caused by the vaccine but the close days of administering the vaccine and the sudden onset of symptoms make me very concerned. How can I take a 2nd vaccine without knowing if that will have a worse effect or kill me? Can I take a different vaccine for the 2nd round, without a risk of something worse happening? Can you report to me if there is any correlation at all between this vaccine and my mini strokes?

allergic reaction/anaphylactic reaction; heart started pounding and racing; high blood pressure 220/118; throat felt funny; This is a spontaneous report received from a contactable Nurse (Patient). A 71-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), dose 1 intramuscular, administered in Arm Left on 23Mar2021 14:30 (Batch/Lot Number: ER8730; Expiration Date: Jul2021) at the age of 71-year-old as single dose for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included low magnesium, low vitamin D, allergy to Band-Aids, skin adhesives, and allergy to polyurethane spray tan (She's had a reaction to polyurethane on wood floors at her dad's house. Her throat started tightening and it was hard to breathe. She couldn't be in the house until they were finished with the floors. She had to stay in a hotel. She's also had a reaction to spray tan. After the spray tan was finished she had the tightness in her throat. She went to the emergency department and was given Benadryl and her reaction stopped after a short amount of time), She had a mole removed from her leg a couple years. Concomitant medications included acetylsalicylic acid (ASPIRIN) taken for an unspecified indication, start and stop date were not reported; magnesium taken for low magnesium from an unspecified start date and ongoing; colecalciferol (VITAMIN D) taken for vitamin D decreased, start and stop date were not reported. The patient had allergy to Polysporin (Johnson and Johnson NDC30036385, Lot#103812, Expiry Jan2020), Polysporin caused a bad skin reaction, it was awful. She can only use plain bacitracin. Some make ups she can't use. She's had no problems with creams. Foods are ok. She had a mole removed from her leg a couple years ago and she put the polysporin on the wound and that's when she had that reaction. It was bad around the incision, that wound took a long time to heal because of that sensitivity. She also can't take zinc oxide because it caused an allergic skin reaction, she also had allergy to Epinephrine, She had a reaction happen to her at the dentist. She was given epinephrine and her heart started pounding and racing. The dentist put her in a shock position. The dentist told her it would pass but it was scary. The patient previously also received Antihistamine for allergy. The patient experienced heart started pounding and racing (medically significant) on 23Mar2021, high blood pressure 220/118 (medically significant) on 23Mar2021, throat felt funny (medically significant) on 23Mar2021, allergic reaction/anaphylactic reaction (medically significant) on 23Mar2021. Events were considered as related to Covid 19 Vaccine by reporter. Event required a visit to Emergency Room. The clinical course as following: She received her first Covid 19 vaccine yesterday, on 23Mar2021. After she received the Covid 19 vaccine she walked down the hall to wait in the other room. When she sat down in the other room her heart started pounding and racing. The nurse took her pulse and took her blood pressure. The nurse asked her if she had high blood pressure and she does not have high blood pressure, she has low blood pressure. And the nurse told her that her pulse was fast. A second nurse came in to recheck her blood pressure and she got a high reading as well. The nurses called the nurse practitioner in also. The nurse practitioner said the caller should go to the emergency department. Her throat also felt funny but not bad. She has had reactions in the past when her throat got tight. In the emergency department she received 2 Benadryl, 50mg of Benadryl. They checked her out in the emergency department. The doctor checked her out. She was hooked up to monitor and she stayed for 4-5 hours in the emergency department in case there was a rebound effect. She was discharged from the emergency department. She reports her pulse was 118 beats per minute. She felt like it was higher than that. Her blood pressure was 220/118 the first time. She takes her blood pressure at home and it runs 118-120 over 68-72. The sensation after the Covid 19 vaccine was her heart started pounding. Her heart was moving she could see it pounding. She asked the emergency room doctor what does she do about the second Covid 19 vaccine. She is scheduled for the second Covid 19 vaccine on 15Apr2021. The doctor told her he wasn't sure about that. The doctor advised her to call the CDC and let them know what's going on. She did not speak to anyone at the CDC, she left her contact information for a call back. She found the number for Pfizer and called it. The symptoms lasted about 1-2 hours before the pulse came down to the 90's (beats per minute). The blood pressure came down quicker then the pulse did. Probably within the hour her blood pressure was down to 158 over something. In the emergency department she was instructed to take Benadryl 25mg every 6 hours for 24-48 hours. She's not back to her perky self, but her heart rate and blood pressure is normal. She took 25mg of Benadryl last night, 23Mar2021 then 25mg of Benadryl this morning, 24Mar2021. She's not taking it right at every 6 hours. And she'll take the Benadryl for only 24 hours. She reports it's unnerving for this to happen to her. It helped her that her blood pressure was coming down and they didn't have to give her any other medication besides the Benadryl. She felt like she was in a safe place in the emergency department. She kept drinking water the whole time, she likes to drink a lot of water and she also did some deep breathing exercises. She gets anxious when things like this happen to her. She felt this was medically significant because she didn't know what caused it. Is something in the vaccine that might have caused this to happen. When probing for relevant tests, she reports she had no tests done in the emergency department. They only maintained her on a heart rate monitor and took her blood pressure. She had no IV or anything like that. All the signs and symptoms of the anaphylactic reaction was described as high blood pressure, heart was racing, throat felt funny. Time of onset was minutes after receiving the vaccine, symptoms lasted about 1-2 hours. Patient require medical intervention included Antihistamine, Benadryl 50mg. Patient seen in the Emergency Department, she was monitored in the emergency department for about 4-5 hours on a heart rate monitor and had her blood pressure taken. The patient was not hospitalized. Organ involvement Cardiovascular: Hypertension 220/118, Tachycardia 118 beats per minute. The event was not required the initiation of new medication or other treatment or procedure. Patient's outcome following the potential anaphylactic reaction was Recovering. No laboratory tests or diagnostic studies performed. The patient did not receive any recent vaccines for any other conditions prior to the event being reported. The patient did not receive any recent vaccines for SARS-CoV2 other than Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine prior to the event being reported. The patient hasn't received any other vaccines around the time of Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine vaccination. The outcome of the events was recovering.; Sender's Comments: The reported anaphylactic reaction described as high blood pressure, palpitation and oropharyngeal discomfort was likely causally related to the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) due to temporal relationship and clinical course of the events.

71- year old woman with past medical significant for hypertension on 10 mg of Lisinopril daily for many years. She had her first dose of Pfizer vaccine two weeks prior to admission (3/11/21). After her vaccination, patient felt unwell and dizzy in the mornings. She felt persistent fatigue and had a decreased appetite. The week prior to admission she noticed a decrease in her urine output. She denied NSAID use. Her primary care physician ordered blood week and her Cr was found to be 16.54 and BUN of 163, phosphate of 17.5. Her last known Cr prior to her admission was 18 months prior and was 1.17. She was asked to present to the emergency room. Renal ultrasound showed no hydronephrosis or stones. Urinalysis showed 1+ protein, spec grav of 1.023 with a urine protein/creatinine ratio of 0.09. Urine sediment was unremarkable. Her temperature was 95.6 and her BP was as low as 75/46 and she was put on a low dose of levo. CRP was 202.3. COVID was negative. CK wnl. ANA + to 1:160 (dsDNA, Smith, RNP, SS-A, SS-B all negative). Blood smear was negative. Cultures were all negative. Echo showed an EF of 68% with trivial pericardial effusion. Patient was oliguric, and then initiated on hemodialysis. Renal biopsy was performed. The biopsy consists of one fragment which is stained with H&E, PAS, Trichrome, Jones Silver, and HPS stains. Review of all stains reveals 12 glomeruli, one of which is globally sclerotic. The architecture of the kidney is well-preserved. There is interstitial fibrosis with proportional atrophy involving 10% of the biopsy tissue. There is a focal interstitial infiltrate consisting of lymphocytes involving <5% of the interstitium. The tubules show diffuse acute tubular injury. Calcium oxalate crystals are present in seven tubular profiles. The glomeruli show expansion of Bowman's capsule. The mesangium shows normal cellularity. The vessels show no abnormalities. IMMUNOFLUORESCENCE MICROSCOPY: Frozen sections are stained for IgA, IgG, IgM, C3, C1q, kappa, lambda, and fibrinogen. All immunofluorescence stains are negative. ELECTRON MICROSCOPY: Specimens are prepared for electron microscopy and semi-thin sections stained with toluidine blue are reviewed prior to thin sectioning for ultrastructural examination. Electron microscopy demonstrates patent capillary loops. The glomerular architecture demonstrates segmental corrugation of basement membranes with increase in lamina rara interna. No subepithelial deposits and no intramembranous deposits are identified. The tubules show dilated mitochondria and injury. There is segmental effacement of foot processes. There are no subendothelial deposits. Mesangial electron dense deposits are not identified. Patient received three dialysis treatments and Creatinine began to improved down to 1.46 within 8 days.

Patient is a 71-year-old female with history of hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and obesity who presents with complaint of acute onset shortness of breath. She reports she was walking around her house earlier when she suddenly became short of breath. She denies any chest pain, numbness or tingling but states that shortness of breath persisted. She denies any tobacco, alcohol or drug use and states she has never had any symptoms similar to this before. Denies any lung disease or heart disease previously. She does have hypertension and hyperlipidemia and is on metoprolol and rosuvastatin respectively which she reports good compliance. Denies family history of MI or strokes. She also denies other symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, fevers or lower extremity edema. In the ED vitals were found to be within normal limits. EKG was obtained showing diffuse T wave inversions, right bundle branch block, no ST changes, no hypertrophy. Troponin found to be elevated at 0.137, creatinine elevated at 1.3, BUN 26. Chest x-ray was within normal limits. Otherwise lab work was unremarkable. She was given aspirin and Nitropaste Hospital Course: Patient was admitted to the medical floor and remained hemodynamically stable throughout her stay. She actually remained asymptomatic and had no further shortness of breath. She was not hypoxic, at no point required supplemental oxygen. Her troponins however continued to uptrend to 0.389. Cardiology consulted, she was medically optimized with increased statin dose, therapeutic lovenox, and aspirin. Original plan was for cardiac catheterization. However, a d-dimer was ordered which returned elevated to 13.7. CTA was performed which revealed extensive bilateral pulmonary emboli with large clot burden and concern for right heart strain. Echocardiogram showed mildly dilated and hypokinetic RV with mild diastolic dysfunction with impaired relaxation. She was deemed not to be candidate for EKOS. Troponin elevation was felt to be type II NSTEMI 2/2 PE. PE was classified as unprovoked as she has no definite risk factors for this: no prior DVT/PE, no family history of clotting disorder, no evidence of malignancy (UTD with cancer screenings and visits PCP q6m for health maintenance), no cell line abnormalities, no prolonged immobility or long trips or surgeries, no trauma, no hormone or steroid therapies or even antidepressants. She is obese, and has mild CKD. She tested negative for COVID-19 by antigen testing. The only identifiable change in her health habits recently was receiving the first COVID-vaccine dose on 3/18. We discharged her with Eliquis with instructions to taper from 10BID to 5BID after 7 days. As she will be on anticoagulation, the benefit will likely outweigh the risk of receiving the second COVID dose. She will follow up with her PCP and hematology/oncology.

Friday, March 12, I woke up with the same symptoms that I had the Friday before, March 5 which included body aches, head ache and nausea. About 10:00 am, I started to experience something like knives in my stomach area. They subsided. I felt like I must have the flu. By the evening, I reported to my husband that I might go to Urgent Care the following morning. About 2:00 am on Saturday, March 13 I woke up with what felt like 'knives' around my right lung every time I breathed . My husband drove me to the ER and was later hospitalized for a Pulmonary Embolism. I was released from the hospital on Sunday, March 14. I had a fever of at least 100 on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday., with the highest being 101.4.

Blood was coming through; Slight bee stings all over and thigh; Scabs on me; my eyelids have been a little itchy too; that was the only way that I am able to get some sleep; was miserable; consumer was in pain; hives; the same day I started to itch, it was mild across my breast and my stomach but my thighs and my bottom legs were turning red, swelling; but my thighs and my bottom legs were turning red/Thighs/Legs turned red; but my thighs and my bottom legs were turning red, swelling; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 71-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) at the age of 71-year-old, via an unspecified route of administration on 10Apr2021 13:30 (Lot Number: EN6207) as single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. The patient's medical history was not reported. Concomitant medications included apixaban (ELIQUIS), tamsulosin, and iron. The patient got her first injection on Saturday, 10Apr2021 at 1:30 pm in the afternoon around 7 o'clock the same day she started to itch, it was mild across her breast and stomach but her thighs and bottom legs were turning red, swelling, hives there too, and she rubbed alcohol (treatment) on this to stop the itch, that seems to helped a little bit, but the swelling was not that bad today but the redness was still there. She has scabs on her, blood was coming through, and slight bee stings all over and thigh on an unspecified date, she used hydrocortisone cream (treatment), she was lucky she have some of that here because she keep that when going or here but she rubbed that on last night and that was the only way that she was able to get some sleep. The patient doesn't think that she was going to get the second shot, she doesn't want to experience that again. It feels like that today it was not that bad itching today but at 71 that was miserable yesterday so probably she would not get the second shot. She hopes that the first one can protect her to a point, but she cannot subject herself to that again, that would be senseless for her to experience that again and get a second shot. The patient also stated that her eyelids have been a little itchy too so hopefully you all understand it was 71 years old was suffering from that kind of misery second time. The patient was unable to probe the more question, patient was in pain and not willing to proceed. The outcome of the events was unknown.

Medical history included shortness of breath, asthma. Concomitant medications included albuterol (SALBUTAMOL) and budesonide/formoterol fumarate (inhalation aerosol). Patient previously received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) on 25Feb2021 at the age of 71 years for covid-19 immunisation and she did fine. Patient stated that lot number for shot 2 looked like EDOL71. It could be ENOL71. The lady didn't write it very well. It could be EN or ED. She was calling to report she had a terrible side effect and she want to document it in the data. She couldn't give that to computer right now, she didn't feel well, she had the Pfizer shot 1 and Pfizer shot 2. She had anaphylaxis at 30 minutes and almost she had crashed her car just after the highway. First shot was February 25, she did fine, the second shot was April 22nd and she had a horrible reaction at 30 min. Patient stated that the problem is they didn't asked her if she was short of breath or if she had any pulmonary complication and so on the second shot she didn't say anything and she forgot to say she has asthma and no one asked her. she forgot to say and so they had her sit in 15min observation and she was fine and she had gone out after she got her vaccination record card sign, she got in her car and 15min. Later while she was driving she went into anaphylaxis. She had to pull over, thank god she didn't hit anybody, she pulled over and parked and she had her inhaler with her so she used the inhaler and she got in the back seat for half an hour to make sure that she drove home, she did not call 911. Patient further stated that she wanted to put it in documentation, if someone is taking something for asthma that probably should not have the second shot one medication is not good enough, the second dose and she also woke up in the evening drenched with sweat and chills, completely sweat and that happened about 8 to 10 hours after the shot on 22Apr2021. After the shot at 12:15 pm and she had the sweat about 11 O'clock at night when she had to lay down and she was shaking so badly she thought she was going to call 911, she was that sick. That's scary, patient stated "I must, I did have crashed in 3 or 4 people during that." So, it was very dangerous to someone who has asthma. That was probably something in the medication that she was allergic to. Outcome of the events was unknown.; Sender's Comments: Based on the very close temporal association, there was a reasonable possibility that the vaccination with BNT162B2 played a contributory role in triggering the onset of the anaphylaxis.

she has a bleeding disorder/ a cardiac procedure in the groin to stop bleeding; Hashimotos' Disease; Mixed Connective Tissue Autoimmune Disease; allergies (experienced rashes and hives) to contrast dyes; allergies to adhesive, and polymers; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer based on information received by Pfizer from Bristol-Myers Squibb (Manufacturer Control Number US-BRISTOL-MYERS SQUIBB COMPANY-BMS-2021-005628), license party for apixaban (ELIQUIS). This case was received via Pfizer Inc (Reference number: 2021040024) on 18Jan2021 and was forwarded to BMS on 19Jan2021. This spontaneous case was reported by a consumer and describes the occurrence of AUTOIMMUNE THYROIDITIS (Hashimotos' Disease), MIXED CONNECTIVE TISSUE DISEASE (Mixed Connective Tissue Autoimmune Disease) and HAEMORRHAGE (she has a bleeding disorder/ a cardiac procedure in the groin to stop bleeding) in 72-year-old female patient who received apixaban (ELIQUIS) for an unknown indication. The occurrence of additional non-serious events is detailed below CO-SUSPECT PRODUCTS included COVID-19 VACCINE for an unknown indication. On an unknown date, the patient started ELIQUIS (unknown route) and COVID-19 VACCINE (Intramuscular). On an unknown date, the patient experienced AUTOIMMUNE THYROIDITIS (seriousness criterion medically significant), MIXED CONNECTIVE TISSUE DISEASE (seriousness criterion medically significant), HAEMORRHAGE (seriousness criterion medically significant), CONTRAST MEDIA ALLERGY (allergies (experienced rashes and hives) to contrast dyes) and DERMATITIS CONTACT (allergies to adhesive, and polymers). The action taken with ELIQUIS (Unknown) was unknown. At the time of the report, AUTOIMMUNE THYROIDITIS, MIXED CONNECTIVE TISSUE DISEASE, HAEMORRHAGE, CONTRAST MEDIA ALLERGY and DERMATITIS CONTACT outcome was unknown. Consumer reported that she had read the EUA Fact Sheet for Recipients and have some questions to the "What should you mention to your vaccination provider". Caller mentioned that she has allergies (experienced rashes and hives) to contrast dyes, adhesive, and polymers such as the angio-seal that was used on her for a cardiac procedure in the groin to stop bleeding. She has irritation from the polymer and described it as a sponge that was meant to be absorbed for a month. Her first question was does the COVID-19 vaccine contain latex, mold (polymers) and adhesive? Response: For latex. For mold (polymer) and adhesive: "A review of the ingredients list on the product label show that mold (polymer) and adhesive are not part of the formulation, however, Pfizer does not specifically manufacture the vaccine to be free of mold (polymer) and adhesive, therefore, we cannot assure that it was "mold (polymer)-free and adhesive free". We cannot guarantee that minute amounts of substances are not contained in raw materials obtained from our suppliers. She had the PPSD23/Pneumonia 23 vaccine last 05Jan2021 and was told not to get the COVID-19 vaccine for 14 days. Is it because of the injection site or is it for systemic reasons? Consumer mentioned that she was on ELIQUIS. She has Hashimoto's Disease and Mixed Connective Tissue Autoimmune Disease. She said that she was not immunocompromised. She mentioned that she has a bleeding disorder. The Pfizer- BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine can only be administered as an intramuscular injection For ELIQUIS (Unknown), the reporter did not provide any causality assessments. Reporter's causality assessment was not provided. Bristol-Myers Squibb Causality assessment for ELIQUIS: Events: Hashimoto's disease, Contrast media allergy, Topical adhesive allergy, Mixed connective tissue disease were considered unrelated while bleeding was considered related. No follow-up attempts are possible; information about lot/batch number cannot be obtained.; Sender's Comments: BMS Medical Evaluation Comment: This patient had autoimmune thyroiditis, mixed connective tissue disease and hemorrhage after receiving apixaban therapy. This patient also had COVID-19 vaccination. Based on the anticoagulant action of apixaban, its role in the event hemorrhage is considered as possible. Based on the etiology of the reported events, auto immune thyroiditis and mixed connective tissue disorder are considered not related to apixaban.

A 72-year-old female patient received the first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Batch/lot number: EL9262, expiration date 31May2021), via an unspecified route of administration on 01Feb2021 at left upper arm around 19:00 or a little later at single dose (at the age of 72-years-old) for covid-19 immunization. Medical history included bad knees and got injections for this and recurrent cellulitis of legs (cellulitis was not active at time of vaccine; but anytime her leg swells with bad knees she had a little episode with the cellulitis down around her ankles on both legs but left leg was more predominant. She had been keeping it at bay), mineral supplementation, bad knee pain, blood pressure medication (abnormal), urine output control (abnormal), dehydrated and dizzy. Concomitant medication included lisinopril as blood pressure medication, potassium for Mineral supplement, solifenacin succinate for urine output control, paracetamol (TYLENOL 4) for bad knee pain. She had taken potassium before and it calmed it down: she was little dehydrated, little dizzy, so was drinking some Pedialyte, water, and taking potassium. The patient had it once before but it kind of snuck up on her again. The patient called to ask if anyone had reported any type of blood clot on the same side of the body that the Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine was administered. She questioned if she might have a blood clot in her left leg after having been administered the Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine. She had recurrent cellulitis in both legs prior to Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine. The doctor thought the cellulitis in left leg may be acting up and that she might have an infection in that area of cellulitis. She reported pain in the left leg when she rested her leg on a pillow; but did not feel any pain when she was standing and walking. The pain became a little too hard for her to bear so the doctor prescribed her Cephalexin 500m capsule every 12 hours-she was on the 3rd capsule now. Onset date for the events was approximately 03Feb2021 or 04Feb2021. The events were better since started Cephalexin. Second dose date scheduled for 22Feb2021 but did not give her time. The outcome of the events was recovering. Follow-up (23Feb2021): New information received from the product quality complaint group includes confirmation of lot number (EL9262) and new expiry date.

All blood tests do not show that it came from a DVT or or that it was inherited therefore, can not show where the clot came from. It is unknown or considered "Unprovoked" due to unknown cause. This causes a concern for an adverse reaction from the vaccine

Since the vaccination, the patient had not been tested for COVID-19. On 13Mar2021 15:00, the patient noticed slight swelling of right foot and on 14Mar2021, the swelling increased so the patient texted the nurse who arranged appointment. The nurse said to contact the doctor and the patient spoke with registered nurse (RN) on duty who told the patient to go to the emergency room (ER) because the symptoms indicated the problem was a blood clot. The ER doctor examined and ordered an ultrasound and the results confirmed blood clot. The patient was given a prescription for blood thinner to take for 21 days (times/day, 15mg) and was told to make an appointment with the primary doctor. The patient's doctor was on spring break and she was walked in to see another doctor who said swelling looked improved and showed her where the clots were located. The patient saw her primary doctor today and she ordered a visit with a hematologist as soon as possible (ASAP) because of concerns about possible underlying issues. The outcome of events, slight swelling of right foot and the problem was a blood clot was recovering. The lot number for the vaccine, BNT162b2, was not provided and will be requested during follow up.

Patient with Hx of AML received 1st dose COVID vaccine 2/10/2021, 2nd dose 3/4/2021. She developed DVT of the right leg, AML relapse. The patient has been diagnosed with AML back in 2016 and underwent several lines of therapy including chemotherapy with 7 and 3 and the last treatment was decitabine with maintenance treatment with ivosidenib. Having severe leukocytosis and right-sided leg edema with DVT raised concern about blast crisis and leukostasis. Patient was admitted to hospital and received. ceftriaxone and azithromycin for possible pneumonia. She underwent leukophoresis on the 4/6/2021, 4/7/2021. Patient received IV heparin gtt for DVT but later on was on hold given worsening thrombocytopenia. She was transferred from one hospital to another hospital. I do not think the development of DVT was due to COVID vaccine. But prior to COVID vaccine, patient was in AML remission.

I started being really short of breath and felt pain/inflammation in lower body. I remember telling my brother I hurt everywhere below my waist; was just home from work where on my feet unless I sit down to rest. It all culminated with increased breathlessness and went to emergency at hospital at 8:30 pm on April 22, 2021. Diagnosis was MANY pulmonary embolisms, some large. I have taken week long road trips for the past several years with hours and hours at the wheel with no problems. It just seems like a real strange coincidence of the vaccine and subsequent symptoms.

Covid 19 vaccine exacerbated her chronic fatigue syndrome; Covid 19 vaccine exacerbated her chronic fatigue syndrome; atrial fibrillation; tachycardia/ heartrate got was 222 beats per minute; missing heartbeats; chills; fever; fatigue; lethargic; felt crummy; This is a spontaneous report received from a contactable consumer (patient). A 72-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER COVID 19 VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 13Apr2021 15:00 (Batch/Lot number was not reported) at age of 72 years as single dose for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included ongoing chronic fatigue syndrome at age 32 (she had been doing natural therapy and had gotten herself to a stable period but her chronic fatigue syndrome was still an issue sometimes), atrial fibrillation (had been admitted to the hospital because of it, she was not admitted to the hospital when she had atrial fibrillation after receiving her Covid 19 vaccine). The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. Historical vaccine included the first flu vaccine she every received sent her over the moon. Clarified she was in bed sick after receiving the flu vaccine. Patient was calling because she didn't do well with her first Pfizer Covid 19 vaccine. After the Covid 19 vaccine she experienced chills and fever on 13Apr2021 for a couple days. Then she had fatigue on 13Apr2021and that was a few days of her own chronic fatigue syndrome flaring up. She also had some problems with her heart like atrial fibrillation and tachycardia on 18Apr2021. She saw her cardiologist and he wanted her to do the dye stress test where she ran on the treadmill. The day her stress test was scheduled was the same day as her second Covid 19 vaccine. She was calling to find out if she can get the dye at her stress test and run on the treadmill and get the Covid 19 vaccine on the same day. Or does she need to put the stress test off for a couple weeks. She felt like the dye from the stress test and the Covid 19 vaccine might be too many chemicals in her body for one day. She felt like the Covid 19 vaccine exacerbated her chronic fatigue syndrome. She reported that something as simple as to much sugar or to much sun or exertion can also exacerbate her chronic fatigue syndrome. She was prepared in her thinking that the Covid 19 vaccine would be difficult for her because of her history with chronic fatigue syndrome. She had chills and a fever for a few days after the Covid 19 vaccine. She did not take her temperature to get a recorded number. She was lethargic and really felt crummy on 13Apr2021 for about the first 3 days. On day 4 she was better. Then the heart stuff started. Clarified, the atrial fibrillation and tachycardia started. She took medicine as needed for her atrial fibrillation and tachycardia. She had the atrial fibrillation and the tachycardia for about 3 days in a row. She reported she was stable now. She was able to monitor her heartrate on her watch. She then printed out her heart rate readings from her watch to take to her doctor. The highest her heartrate got was 222 beats per minute and that happened a couple times. Her watch only showed her heart rate as 150 beats per minute but when she printed the information it showed her true heart rate. She did see an electrophysiologist before she received her first dose of the Covid 19 vaccine. She was preparing herself for if anything was going to go wrong when she received the vaccine, she wanted to know what to do. She wanted to prepared in case the Covid 19 vaccine caused her any trouble. She was prescribed Diltiazem by her cardiologist to take as needed when she was having the tachycardia and atrial fibrillation. She was taking 15mg three times a day on the three days that she had the atrial fibrillation and tachycardia and it helped. She received her first dose of the Covid 19 vaccine on 13Apr2021 and according to her watch she started missing heartbeats on 14Apr2021. The atrial fibrillation and the really bad heart stuff started on 18Apr2021 and went on until 22Apr2021. She would say her heart issues started to resolve on the afternoon of the 22Apr2021. She was still missing heart beats according to her watch but nothing bad. She saw her cardiologist on Friday, 23Apr2021 and at that appointment she was in normal sinus rhythm. She has had some ups and downs since the 23Apr2021. Her second Covid 19 vaccine was scheduled for 04May2021 at 11:00AM. She did have a 3D echocardiogram and based on that, the doctor wanted to rule out any blocked arteries and that's why she's doing the stress test. AEs (atrial fibrillation and tachycardia) require a visit to Physician Office. Outcome of events chills, fever, lethargic, felt crummy was recovered on 17Apr2021, and the other events was unknown.

stroke; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable nurse (patient's sister). A 72-year-old female patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), intramuscular, administered in Arm Left on 15Jan2021 at 18:30 (Lot Number: EL1283) at 1st dose, single for covid-19 immunisation. The patient's medical history was not reported. Concomitant medication included rabeprazole sodium (ACIPHEX) taken for acid digestion. On 31Jan2021 at 08:00, patient had a stroke (very mild stroke with just some care needed but, not much). She was not able to receive the second dose because she was in the hospital. Caller would like to consult on some guidelines for receiving the vaccine after 6 weeks. The reported wanted to know if the patient need to start all over again. The patient was hospitalized for stroke (cerebrovascular accident) from 31Jan2021 to 03Feb2021 and then went to Rehabilitation right after and was there for 2 weeks. She was currently doing speech therapy because that is what she qualifies for. Things were improving, she has been released from physical rehab but still qualifies for the speech therapy. Outcome of the event was recovering.; Sender's Comments: Based on the limited information and the advanced age, the event stroke is considered more likely an intercurrent medical condition that was unrelated to BNT162B2. Additional information including detailed event information, relevant present and past medical conditions would be needed to better assess the case.

3/9 MHN, admitted day after covid vaccine with weakness/SOB. Patient with history of small cell lung cancer metastatic on chemotherapy, COPD, diabetes, Sjogren's who presents with shortness of breath, confusion, and generalized fatigue as well as fall 1 week ago found to have recurrent pleural effusion, T7 fracture, new metastases, UTI. Shortness of breath: Suspicion is that this is related to malignancy plus effusion. Shortness of breath markedly improved after removal of Transudative fluid, 470cc obtained on thora 3/10 with cytology negative. Encephalopathy: Daughter notes that she has been more confused. The patient is off on her timeline of details. CT shows no evidence of brain metastases nor does recent MRI. Chronic hypoxemic respiratory failure: Patient is on 3 L of oxygen at baseline and she is currently at baseline. Generalized weakness: Her neuro exam is nonfocal aside from her confusion of timeline. CT and MRI have been unremarkable. I discussed her T7 fracture with spine surgery who recommends CT of entire spine which showed additional metastases. Patient has no pain and has declined the need for brace. Metastatic small cell lung cancer: Patient admits that she does not like to talk much about the big picture however her daughter at bedside did speak with me outside the room and understands that she may have a poor prognosis. UTI: With increased frequency/urgency/incontinence. There is trace leuk esterase on UA. She has been on ceftriaxone but urine culture showing 80,000 colonies of Enterococcus. Changed to vancomycin. I discussed with the microbiology lab who stated that sensitivities would not be available until 3/13. Discharged with sensitivities pending initially with plan for amoxicillin but given interaction with methotrexate change to Macrobid. Normocytic anemia: Likely related to malignancy and chemotherapy. No blood loss has been noted. She received 1 unit RBCs prior to discharge.

Daughter reporting after her mother's death . She got her vaccine and called her daughter in the afternoon around 2:00 and told her that she got it. At 6:00 she received a VM where she said that she was having joint pain and wanted to know if she could call her doctor to get her joint pain medicine. Later that evening her daughter told her that was why she was put on the Hydroxychloroquine and they wanted her to see the rheumatologist. She complained of pain a lot, but she specifically asked for joint pain medicine. On the 22nd on another VM her daughter noticed that she sounded raspy hoarse sounding and congested and had a cough. Then subsequent messages after that the hoarseness was there that didn't go away. Her daughter took her to the dentist on 4/15/21 and she remembered that the caregiver told her that she did not want to go to the dentist as she did not feel good. She did not like to get out of the apartment. Then on 4/19/21 she was admitted to the hospital and that she had pneumonia. They were going to discharge her home and she was going to pick her up on 4/22/21, and then they called her back and told her that she sounded junky and they were going to keep her another day. She made arrangements to pick her up on Friday and then her oxygens dropped and would discharge her on Monday. She normally gets oxygen 1 liter of oxygen only at night, and when she was admitted her oxygen levels were low and they put her on 6 liters when she was admitted. Then she was weaned off oxygen completely, and her daughter informed them that she slept with oxygen and that's when they were talking about going home. On Friday she dropped her oxygen level into the 60's On Saturday 4/24/21 she was on 9 liters of oxygen and the doctor came in and said that she was on 14. By Saturday night she was on the Critical care Unit, but her on Vancomycin and was on Vapotherm on high-flow oxygen and she had maxed out at 40 liters at 100% oxygen. They talked to the daughter about putting her on ventilation and thought it was toxicity to Vancomycin and other things and couldn't figure it out and said that it was some sort of inflammation of her lungs. They put her on high levels of steroids and was then taken off of high-flow oxygen and then was still on 20% liters. They recommended hospice and palliative care. They decided to bring her home on Hospice with 15 liters of oxygen. It was up and down levels. She was given steroids when she came home on Hospice and was given steroids. She then started to decline and hospice nurse came and she was admitted to Hershey and they repeated her chest x-ray and COVID testing, and that her lungs were so scarred there was nothing that they could do for her. They tested her for COVID multiple times, the CAT Scans came back that it was worsening and consistent with COVID but tested negative twice while was there. She was then sent to Hospital and tested again and was negative, and she passed on 5/10/2021. HOSPITAL ADMISSIONS: She was admitted to on 4/19/21 discharged home on hospice on 5/6/21. She was admitted to Medical Center on 5/6/21 and she died on 5/10/21 at 5:48 PM.

After the first dose, I had the usual tiredness and sore arm, I took Tylenol for the arm. Two days later, I had an episode with my Afib being active (the propafenone had been managing this). After my second dose, I had chills, low grade fever, feeling generally sick, all this was normal per CDC. However, on the 19th I woke with full scale Atrial Fibrillation and my blood pressure was elevated. Both kept rising until my BP was 173/108, I was very dizzy and faint. I called 911, who transported me to Hospital ER (because my heart rate was extremely elevated and BP high). My heart rate eventually went back to normal, BP still higher than it should be. For the past week, my BP has fluctuated between being normal to being high. The past two days, it has been normal. The only explanation was a result of the 2nd vaccine as they could find no other problems in doing x-rays of my heart/lungs and blood work. It was a bit scary because high blood pressure affects my kidneys and was the cause of the stroke in my eye last year.

She said bee sting, Penicillin, and shrimp. They responded and told her if she had a reaction they had an EpiPen there for her. She has not had an EpiPen injection since 1987. She did not remember what it was like. Back in 1987, she got stung by a bee. She felt so bad. She felt that if she closed her eyes she would die. Her daughter called 911 and they came, but they did not have the EpiPen. Her son called her family doctor who came over with the EpiPen. He said she was having a severe reaction to the bee sting. He saved her life. When she went in on Tuesday she got a woozy after the vaccine. It was not near as bad as what she experienced in 1987. She stayed there 45 minutes and they brought her water and a bagel. She drank the water but did not eat the bagel. She went home and was fine all night. The next morning about 8AM, she started feeling so bad. She felt worse than she did in 1987. She felt like she was going to die if she closed her eye. It did not dawn on her that she was having an anaphylactic reaction. Her friend sent her a text that had four versions of a scripture. The scripture said has different plans for her. She read that to herself and started to feel better. She attributed it to saving her life. She told her cardiologist she is 72 years old and has underlying conditions and she does not want to go through that again. In 1987 the doctor came in the house and the fireman was already there. The doctor came over to her and he just stuck that EpiPen in her thigh. Everything in the body went to the top of her head. She felt like if she could open her head she could let the pain and everything out. Feeling so bad: It lasted for about 15 to 30 minutes. Then caller clarified her friend texted her at 9:26AM, so it may have lasted an hour to an hour and a half. She ached all over. Her body felt dead. It was pained all over. Everything was trapped inside her head. She went to the cardiologist and all her numbers were fine. She told him she was not going to take another shot. She is going to go back for a stress test because she has been diagnosed with coronary artery disease. She has an appointment with her primary care doctor, on 10Mar2021 and will see what he has to say. Time the Vaccination Was Given: her appointment was at 11:30AM. History of all previous immunization with the Pfizer vaccine considered as suspect was none. Additional Vaccines Administered on Same Date of the Pfizer Suspect was none. The adverse events require a visit to Physician Office, She felt better and decided not to take the other shot. She ran it by her doctors. She has an appointment. She has not cancelled it yet. She wants to find out what the ramifications would be if she did not take the second one. The patient did not receive any other vaccines within 4 weeks prior to the COVID vaccine. Adverse events following prior vaccinations: She does not have a spleen. She has had her flu shot. She has not had the shingles vaccination. It is not time for Pneumovax. She keeps up and follows her doctors. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included numbers: unknown results. The outcome of the events was unknown.

Response was provided for the same as: When vaccinating Persons with Increased Bleeding Risk, providers often avoid giving intramuscular injections (not just this vaccine) or choose alternative routes because of the risk for hematoma formation after injections. The Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine should only be administered as an intramuscular injection. Also reported that there was no contraindication listed upon the package insert for patients receiving blood thinners and getting the COVID19 vaccine as well as provided information regarding use with blood thinners.

Patient received her 1st dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine on March 08, 2021. About a week later she started complaining of feeling fatigued, confused, and disoriented some days. These symptoms progressively got worse over the next 3 months. She received her 2nd dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine on April 05, 2021. A week later she mentioned waking up more disoriented in the mornings and would look at her hands and think to herself, "Who's hands are these?" She said she felt like she wasn't in her right mind. Soon after this she felt she couldn't go to the grocery store alone or drive because she might get lost. She never had symptoms of Dementia prior to March 2021. On May 10, 2021 I noticed she was moving slower and using walls to guide her through her home as she walked. She mentioned she felt more fatigued at this time. On the weekend of May 21, 2021 we took a trip for her birthday and she was mentioning how it was a struggle for her to pack for the trip because she couldn't think clearly and had made a mess in her room trying to find her clothes. She was a very tidy & organized person, so this was very unusual. A week after the trip she mentioned losing some strength in her left leg and needing to lean on walls as she walked through her home. On June 4, 2021 the weakness got worse and she mentioned she felt more "off" and wanted to shower before heading to the hospital to be evaluated - when she got out of the shower she completely lost strength in her left leg and fell to the ground, but was conscious. She was taken to Hospital where a CT scan was done that showed brain swelling and a mass. She was then transported to Medical Center where an MRI was done, confirming the swelling and 4cm mass - doctors there believed it could be a Glioblastoma and mentioned it is very aggressive. When asked if the vaccine may have caused this, we were quickly dismissed and told there could be no connection at all. After further research we found that GBM (Glioblastoma) could grow as quickly as .5mm per day and when calculating the time between her 1st dose and her hospitalization (approx. 90 days) it equated to 4.5cm, her mass was 4cm. Even if there was a mass there before her vaccine, there is reason to believe it may have been aggravated by the vaccine. Surgery was suggested, but after 4 days she expressed that she wanted to opt out of the surgery and pursue a second opinion or natural treatments. She was discharged on June 9, 2021 and taken home with medication. She was more alert and lively at home - able to converse and move around with assistance, but did not have strength in her left leg and was losing more strength in her left arm. On June 13, 2021 she suffered a heart attack and was rushed to the emergency room by ambulance. CPR was performed in the ambulance and she was taken to Hospital where they stabilized her but she never regained consciousness. She was taken home for Hospice on June 16, 2021 and passed away on June 19, 2021.

TIA; I felt really lousy; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 73-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number: EN6203), dose 2 at the age of 73-year-old, via an unspecified route of administration on 26Feb2021 as single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included high blood pressure (don't have really high blood pressure but the doctor has her on blood pressure medicine, have no diabetes or whatever, and had allergies. Concomitant medication included amlodipine besylate 5 mg, taken every morning. She takes most of her medicines in the morning and had taken that stuff at about 5 o'clock or so early in the morning. The patient was previously vaccinated with the first dose of BNT162B2 on 05Feb2021 at the age of 73-year-old and hand no problem. The patient stated that when she had the first COVID vaccination she had no problem and then Friday she went to get the second one, it was 3 weeks later, when she had first one she stated that she had allergies, so they had her wait 15 minutes, no problem. When she went for the second one, thankfully someone drove her that was outside the 'game court' location. When they gave it they said, she pull up and will let her know after she pull up and will decide if she has to wait 15 minutes or 30 minutes and they asked her if she had allergies, and she said yes, they said pull over here and she has to wait 30 minutes and all she know was, it's probably 2 minutes from the time she got the vaccine until she got to the place to wait. She would say 15 minutes after she got it on 26Feb2021, she felt really lousy and told her friend, they 'said' she was having a Trans Ischemic Attack (TIA), and took me to the hospital and everything. An ambulance was called on 26Feb2021 at around 8 o'clock that morning, right after she had the vaccine and carried her straight in the hospital. She was discharged the next day 27Feb2021 at about 7 PM. The patient had a CT scan of her brain, MRI of her brain, and then cardial, something with reference to her heart, she forgot, all with unknown results. The body weight right now was about 150 pounds. The outcome of the events was unknown.

On March 2nd woke up with right calf pain. Thought I had a charley horse in the middle of the night and thought this was the soarness you get afterward. Because I had been on Crestor for approximately 5 weeks I thought that the crestor may be causing muscle pain. After 2 days of calf pain which was subsiding by then I visited Dr. who ordered a right ultrasound and I had 2 blood clots in the right leg (one in calf and one behind the knee). Due to the fact that I did not meet any standards for getting blood clots I was put on blood thinners (Eliquis) and told to see a hematologist.

developed a worsening of their ITP; developed a worsening of their ITP; Rash; Headache; Chills; her platelet count was at 37,000; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable pharmacist. A 73-year-old female patient received second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration at the age of 73 years old on 16Mar2021 at single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included medical diabetes mellitus with mild leukopenia without recurrent infection since 2005, Moderate thrombocytopenia. Concomitant medications were reported as none. The patient developed a worsening of her ITP, which was clarified as Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura on 23Mar2021. They thought the worsening of this condition was attributed to the vaccine. She was referring to the Pfizer BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine. The pharmacist made the comment the patient probably had her first dose around 23Feb2021, however, this cannot be confirmed. Pharmacist was unsure of the date when the patient had her first dose. The patient had reported she had a lot of side effects including rash, headache, chills on 23Mar2021. The last lab was done on 26Jan2021 and the patient's platelet count at that time was 88,000. She had a scheduled routine dental procedure and had a CBC done (in Mar2021) approximately 1 week after receiving the second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. When the patient had labs done on 22Mar2021 (after receiving her second dose), her platelet count was at 37,000. The patient's platelet count stayed low like this after multiple labs were drawn. On 23Mar2021, her platelet count was at 44,000; On 29Mar2021, her platelet count was at 36,000; On 16Apr2021, her platelet count was at 26,000; On 22Apr2021, her platelet count was at 32,000. The patient was started on Dexamethasone 40mg orally for 4 days as treatment for the events. On 26Apr2021, her platelet count bounced back up to 64,000. On 03May2021, the patient's platelet count was at 125,000. The outcome of event platelet count low was resolving while outcome of other events were unknown. Follow-up attempts are needed; information about lot/batch number has been requested.; Sender's Comments: Based on chronological connection to the vaccine causality between reported events and BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) cannot be completely excluded. The impact of this report on the benefit/risk profile of the Pfizer product is evaluated as part of Pfizer procedures for safety evaluation, including the review and analysis of aggregate data for adverse events. Any safety concern identified as part of this review, as well as any appropriate action in response, will be promptly notified to Committees and Investigators, as appropriate.

Later on I realized that it didn't get smaller my leg started to get bigger. So I called the doctor and they advised me to come in immediately to do an ultrasound. They later on told me that the swelling was due to a blood clot that formed and they prescribed Xarelto 15 mg 2x day and with that prescription I didn't see any improvement so they prescribed me to do 20mg 1x day and I'm just now seeing results now.

My only reactions to the shot were a siege of muscle pain throughout my entire body. On March 14th, one week later, I awoke in the night with either afib or a very rapid heartbeat. I have CAD and one stent but have never experienced this. We drove to clinic. My troponin level was 69 - a count pertaining to heart muscle involvement. After 7 hours, I was released. However, two days later, I awoke in the night unable to speak or think clearly. I was taken by ambulance to Hospital where I was diagnosed with a heart attack - the first I've ever had. the troponin level was now 76. Since the heart is a muscle, and the shot affects muscles, could there be a co-relation? I didn't have the second shot. Should I have one?

A 73-Year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Formulation: Solution for Injection, Batch/Lot number: Unknown), via intramuscular route of administration in the left arm, on 04Mar2021 10:45 (at age of 73 years old) as dose 2, single for COVID-19 immunisation.

It was reported that she had multiple sclerosis and does not had any problem for over 15 years, she thought that she should take that out from. So, she never expressed it be the muscle stroke was because she never once and all these year of she had it, there had not been excavation acted suddenly, So, she was not convinced that it was her multiple sclerosis but she let it walk for several days about a week later on Wednesday, it was like gone again. So that was fine and then she went to easter and then friday after easter it was started again, and it was really bad and so she was not quite as bad as first day in Mar2021. The patient's husband took her to the doctor, and the physician could see her eye was jumping her left to right, when she go to left and jump and she could see it was jumping back and forth in Mar2021, she still waited what it could be.

Then the patient went to the hospital and underwent lots of unspecified tests, and magnetic resonance imaging CAT scan and the patient don't really know what she really had anyway. The patient's cholesterol was slightly high in Mar2021. They did find that there was lesion in my spine and neck and my brain from formal excavation of multiple sclerosis in Mar2021. The physician's checked the patient and confirmed that she doesn't have stroke and so the physician decided it was her MS, but the patient said it probably, she had her shot two weeks before first problem with this, Now he said, that might be something, now they didn't say anything to her but that was they going to look like still they have informed her to stay in hospital for 3 days and they give me Intravenous of cortisone so forth and let her out the hospital and sent her the several doctors including the physiotherapist and MS doctor and she spend lot of hours in the doctor's office. There was a conversation about the COVID stuff, the doctor did not say anything but anyway then had a follow-ups with the doctors with her General Practitioner doctor and said that she should call and let you know, it was getting improved or was getting better. So she have a movement on her left side little bit, when she move to the left side and things are little bit wavy but anyway it's getting better but he said she thought it should be reported. The patient stated that other than eye sight no other medical conditions were observed after the second shot. Patient stated that her doctor's seems to think that you want follow up information from patient to had some kind of reaction and that's what she was doing to reporting to the Pfizer company that what she had and she was not sure if it was related at all to but she was suspicious because it happened soon after like she said she did not had. It was reported that it did bring some observation, but she did not the same way it usually. So, that's why she thought she should report all this. The patient did not had any other vaccination prior to covid vaccine. The lab test included computerised tomogram: unspecified and magnetic resonance imaging: unspecified. The outcome of the events vertigo, feeling abnormal and illness recovering, cerebrovascular accident, Nausea, visual impairment, dizziness, Diplopia, Feeling abnormal, eye disorder, vision blurred, blood cholesterol high, Central nervous system lesion was unknown.

See previous description of events on page one. My concern is that this very "healthy" 73 year old, still working despite her COPD currently has a very sudden, very invasive pneumonia post covid vaccines. Her pulmonologist said she was perplexed as to how her CT looked pretty horrible with the patient not showing signs of more severe, chronic build up to what is being seen on the CT. It is concerning that at this point we are not considering the Covid shot as the culprit.

Patient stated that, she had blood clot after received the vaccine. Patient got the Pfizer vaccine, first shot on 12Feb2021 and second shot on 12Mar2021 and about two weeks after that patient started getting symptoms shortness of breath and patient was just diagnosed three weeks ago with a pulmonary embolism that resulted from a DVT in leg and they are not sure when that occurred. Patient started with shortness of breath and was an asthmatic, so pulmonologist thought it was the asthma that was acting up then they thought patient had a sinus infection and it just kept getting worse and worse the shortness of breath. Patient stated that, pulmonologist was trying to figure out what could have caused this, they thought it was asthma acting up but apparently shortness of breath kept getting worse and three weeks ago patient was hospitalized and that when they found this large pulmonary embolism and when they did the 'legs' they found the clot in the legs and they could not determine the age of it when that occurred, but it would be before patient had the COVID shot. Patient did not receive any other vaccine administered prior COVID-19 vaccine. Patient was hospitalized from 08Jun2021 to 12Jun2021. Patient was clarified the reason of hospitalized as blood clots. Patient was seeing pulmonologist, they did a CAT scan in Feb2021 and that was clear.

When patient was in the hospital, they put on a Heparin drip for two days and now on a blood thinner Eliquis. Outcome of the event shortness of breath was not recovered/not resolved and for other events outcome was unknown. Information on Lot/Batch number was available. Additional information has been requested.; Sender's Comments: Based on the information in the case report and a plausible temporal relationship, a possible causal relationship between the events Thrombosis, Pulmonary embolism, Deep vein thrombosis, Dyspnoea and Sinusitis and suspect drug BNT162B2 cannot be excluded.

The stomach episodes seem to be getting more frequent. I'm still having swelling in my legs. I still have tightness and pail behind my right ankle. Elevation doesn't help the swelling.

In her workup for dizziness and syncope she had not previously undergone EKG, chest x-ray or echocardiogram therefore pericardial effusion could have been missed. I elected to report the pericardial effusion to be on the side of caution.

Exacerbation of COPD/having trouble breathing; extremely tired, couldn't get out of bed, couldn't move/tiredness; weakness; bleeding; Test: Iron; Result: Critically low; red blood cell was below 5; administered at the left upper forearm; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable nurse (patient) via Pfizer. A 75-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection, Batch/Lot number was not reported, NDC number: 59267-1000-02), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in the left upper forearm on 01Mar2021 at the age of 75-years-old as single dose for COVID-19 immunization. The vaccine was administered to the patient at a pharmacy (in a grocery store). The patient had no prior vaccinations (within 4 weeks). The patient's medical history included retired (retired registered nurse), ongoing depression (has had this condition for probably 20 years), ongoing lung cancer (has had this condition for probably 3 years), ongoing bipolar (has had this condition for about 4 years), ongoing emphysema (has been severe for about 4 or 5 years), and ongoing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (has been severe for about 4 or 5 years). Concomitant medications included duloxetine taken for depression from an unspecified start date and ongoing (been taking this probably for 15 years); and arformoterol tartrate (BROVANA) (started taking this probably 5 years ago), budesonide (started taking this probably 5 years ago), tiotropium bromide (SPIRIVA) (has been taking this for probably about 4-5 years), oxygen (has been using this full time for 3 years), and Trilogy machine (she sleeps with this, it is an invasive intubation. She puts a big mask on and it pumps air in, pulls air out, letting her lungs rest. Her oxygen hooks up to it), all taken for emphysema and COPD from an unspecified start date and ongoing. The patient reported that she received the vaccine on 01Mar2021 and sometime in Apr2021 around Easter, she went to the hospital for COPD exacerbation, tiredness and weakness. The patient required a visit to the emergency room due to the events and reported that she went by ambulance to the hospital. The patient stated that she has these events often and it has nothing to do with the COVID vaccine. She went to the hospital with exacerbation of COPD and missed her date to get her last shot. She wanted to know whether she can get the 2nd dose of the vaccine with her experience after the 1st dose. The patient reported that she now weighs 177 after she has been pumped full of cortisone. The patient reported that her lung doctor was really the one that manages her medical. The patient reported that she thinks she came home from the hospital the day before Easter and she was in the hospital for 5 days (in Apr2021). She was sick before that, at home, and she finally had to call # to come and get her. She believes she had to call # the 5th day before Easter, but she was not positive. When asked to clarify what she meant by sick, the patient explained she was extremely tired, she couldn't get out of bed and couldn't move. She was having trouble breathing. She was on oxygen 24/7 and sleeps with a trilogy machine so she was having a lot of trouble, it was awful. She said she then found out at the hospital her red blood cell was below 5 and her iron was critically low. They had to give her 2 units of blood and an infusion. Then she went back yesterday and got another infusion and she has to go back next week for another infusion. The patient confirmed that she was hospitalized for COPD. She then stated she didn't know the exact date of when she was discharged from the hospital, but she was thinking it was the day she was scheduled for her second shot. She then clarified she came home Easter. The patient reported that she can't do much without having to sit down, catch her breath, and rest a little bit. She was improving but not as fast as she'd like to. While reading the vaccine record card, the patient stated "my eyes aren't as good as they used to be". Her pulmonologist stated she was going to die if she doesn't take the vaccine. If she catches COVID she was not going to make it, so her pulmonologist thinks her chances are better with the vaccine than without it. The patient said she goes all the time to the hospital; therefore, she doesn't think the events were related to the vaccine. She had been sick several times. They can't do anything about the bleeding, they can't go in to do anything because of her lungs, her lungs were so bad. No further details were provided regarding the bleeding she was speaking of. The patient reported that duloxetine doesn't come as 90 mg so she takes a 30 mg and 60 mg tablet; she mixes the Brovana and Budesoind and takes them at the same time, twice a day. She was given an albuterol solution, 0.5mg PRN (as needed), for her emphysema/COPD. She says she just started taking this from her last hospital stay. The patient reported that she did not remember her iron count, just that it was critically low. She did remember asking the nurse what could happen, and the nurse said a lot of things such as infection. She confirmed tests were done in regards to the lung cancer. Her lungs were too critical for any kind of invasive tests. It was reported that the events Exacerbation of COPD and "extremely tired, couldn't get out of bed, couldn't move" were assessed by the patient as unrelated to BNT162B2. The outcome of the events "Exacerbation of COPD/having trouble breathing" and " extremely tired, couldn't get out of bed, couldn't move/tiredness" was recovering, while the outcome of the other events was unknown. Information on the lot/batch number has been requested.; Sender's Comments: Based on the narrative information provided, the reported events Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Fatigue, Asthenia, Blood iron decreased, Red blood cell count decreased and Asthenia are assessed as intercurrent medical conditions and unrelated to BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection).

She was referred to PCP. She saw a NP next day and gave me referral to ENT specialist. Using an scope could not find anything and ordered to have CT Scan.

Prescribe a very small amount of Amoxicilline 125 mg, twice a day for 7 days plus a saline gel. Patient had the last nose bleed at midnight. For 3 days did not have any bleeding until today, at 10:15 am, with heavy bleeding which took me 15 min. to control. She has no history of nose bleed, taking blood thinners, no head traumas either. No other vaccine in four weeks. No Covid prior vaccination. No Covid tested post vaccination. The outcome of the event infection was unknown, other events was not recovered.; Sender's Comments: Information provided was so limited to prevent a meaningful and definite medical assessment for the events. A causal relationship cannot be completely excluded for BNT162B2 injection and development of Thrombosis and Epistaxis, only based on a plausible chronological sequence.

The patient did not receive any recent vaccines for any other conditions prior to the event being reported, the patient did not receive any recent vaccines for SARS-CoV2 other than Pfizer BIONTECH COVID-19 Vaccine prior to the event being reported, the patient did not received any other vaccines around the time of the Pfizer BIONTECH COVID-19 Vaccine vaccination. The patient did not receive any other vaccines within 4 weeks prior to the COVID vaccine. The patient experienced anaphylaxis reaction, (itching all over just severely from head to toe, small rash on back, lips tingle a little) on 09Apr2021, patient itching so bad she couldn't sleep. Patient reported that she received her first dose of the Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine on 09Apr2021. She was supposed to have her second dose of the Covid-19 vaccine today, 07May2021, but she called and cancelled the appointment. The lady that gave the caller the Covid-19 vaccine called her wondering why she had cancelled her appointment. Patient had a reaction from the first dose of the Covid-19 vaccine where she was itching all over just severely from head to toe. Patient was miserable and took Benadryl. Patient reported that the Benadryl helped her get to sleep. Patient reported that she also had a small rash on her back that she put Benadryl cream on. Patient reported that the rash lasted 2 days or so. Patient reported that she has a little itching now but it's nothing, the itching could be just normal for her. Patient reported that for 2 days the itching was not normal at all, it was severe itching. Patient reported that she didn't know if she should even have the second dose of the Covid-19 vaccine following her reaction to the first dose. Patient reported that she called the pharmacist who instructed the caller to call her physician. Caller reported that she called her physician and he informed the Patient that there is not enough information for him to be able to tell the caller what she should do. Caller reported that she asked her physician if she took a Benadryl before she went to get the second dose of the Covid-19 vaccine and took someone with her to the vaccination facility, would that be enough. Patient reported that her physician informed her that he would definitely recommend that the caller take Benadryl if she gets the second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, but would not tell the caller whether or not she should get the second dose. Patient reported that she didn't know how long you had to decide to get the second dose of the Covid-19 vaccine or not. Caller reported that someone told her that you have 3 weeks after the first dose of the Covid-19 vaccine and 3 weeks after you're supposed to have the second dose. Caller inquired how much longer she has to decide whether or not to get the second dose of the Covid-19 vaccine. Patient reported that the itching began about 5 hours after she received the first dose of the Covid-19 vaccine on 09Apr2021 and the itching was severe for at least 2 days. Patient he has itched a little here and there, patient is always out in the yard doing something. Patient nose itched so bad that she couldn't stand it, not having any trouble with breathing and lips tingled a little and she wondered if that was just from itching. Patient was trying to use her knowledge to figure all of this out on her own. Caller reported that's all she could figure out and it was mainly severe itching. Patient had no swelling of the lips and no difficulty swallowing or breathing. Patient couldn't sleep due to the itching, so she would say that the itching was at least almost definitely medically significant, patient reported that it wasn't life or death, the itching was just annoying. Patient was constantly just scratching her head a little and she feels a little itchy at places. Patient did not know if in the past she has been itchy before but she doesn't think that she has. Small rash on back: Caller reported that when the severe itching began, there was one place on her back that she started scratching. Caller reported that she had her husband look at her back and he informed her that there was a little rash back there. Patient reported that her husband stated the rash was probably about 5 inches but only maybe 2 inches the other way. Caller reported that the rash was not a big area. Patient didn't have her husband look at the rash after that. Caller reported that when she took Benadryl orally, the itching stopped and she just let it go. Caller reported that she did have her husband look the other day and the rash was no longer there, itching, rash, tingling, insomnia was diagnosis as anaphylaxis. The patient did not required medical intervention, the patient did not visit in the Emergency Department or physician office, not hospitalized and not admitted to an Intensive Care Unit. Seriousness of the event was reported as always serious, medically significant. The outcome of event was recovering.
