A 76-year-old female patient received first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection, lot: EN6203), via an unspecified route of administration in left arm on 27Feb2021 (at the age of 76years) as single dose for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included ongoing fibromyalgia diagnosed in 1999; Covid-19 from 23Nov2020 to Dec2020 (went to the hospital because of pain in her side at night. Was told she had pneumonia and pleurisy, she got it 2 days after her husband did, but hers was a mild case); her husband had Covid in Nov2020 and died in Dec2020 and hemorrhoids (from having babies years ago). Concomitant medication included acetylsalicylic acid, caffeine, paracetamol (EXCEDRIN). The patient had no investigation assessment. The patient scheduled her first dose for 27Dec2021. The patient had questions about it, but the person administering it did not speak English and she said that initially she did not have any reactions while she was there. The patient received the first dose of the vaccine on 27Feb2021 and has a lot of adverse events. After the getting the shot, she woke up at 0400 and experienced shaking (whole body was shaking), trembling out of control, hurting from her neck down to her toes, her joints were achy, hurt, and stiff, her teeth were chattering and couldn't stop, and when she tried to stop that it made it worse, when she got up she had hard time walking, so much that when she had diarrhea, she had diarrhea on the floor, she also noticed that the color of the diarrhea looked red and looked like it had blood on it but she was not sure. After that, she sat down in a chair and noticed that it had blood when she got up and suspected that she had hemorrhoids and bleeding because of the diarrhea. She thought it was a result of the reaction to the shot. She noted that that she had COVID on 23Nov2020 and that she heard that people who had COVID might not need to get the second shot but it was only speculation so she was asking if this was true. She mentioned that she waited 90 days before getting the vaccine as per CDC guidelines and knew that the 2nd dose can be given for 42 days after the first dose. The patient's daughter in law who was an occupational therapist volunteered to fly in and take care of her after the second shot on 27Mar2021 but her 2nd shot was due on 20Mar2021 so she wouldn't be there until then. The patient was having a hard time rescheduling her appointment so asked if there was anything can be done. The patient would prefer not to take the second dose due to the side effects. The patient also reported that it looked like someone who had a stroke trying to walk again, her gait was off and she was kind of jerking. As she would take a step her foot would go down on a slant like it was skidding. She said that this happened one other time to her. It was like she was leaning forward and could not stop herself. When she was able to get up, she went into the living room and sat in her husband's chair and fell asleep until 15:00. When she got up, she noticed a lot of blood in the chair. The patient asked if this was allowed. She went home and took a couple of acetylsalicylic acid, caffeine, paracetamol because she did not have paracetamol (Tylenol), and she went to sleep. She had a hard time rolling and trying to get out of bed. She turned on her electric blankety and her heat. She said that by 0600 most of the shaking had gone away. She felt a little nausea, but got some dry toast. She said that she wanted to take a shower, but she started getting diarrhea from the injection. She fell in the bathroom and could not get herself up for over an hour because she was too weak. When she fell on the floor, she tried to get on a rug because she was still having the diarrhea on the floor. She said that it was everywhere. The next day she called her son and his wife they said that she could be alone for her second shot. She was scheduled for 20Mar2021 for her second dose. The patient had a hard time changing the appointment and her son could not come to stay with her until 27Mar2021. A friend told the patient that on the news it said that a second shot may not be necessary for people who have had Covid-19 already and she wanted to know if Pfizer has heard of this. The patient said that she was kind of wiped out for a couple of days (in 2021) and it was all over now. The doctor's office was aware of what happened and she was told to take extra strength Tylenol before and after the second injection to address these symptoms. The consumer considered the case as non-serious. The outcome of the event fatigue was recovered in 2021 while for the remaining events was unknown.

I think I am having a bad reaction to my covid shots. The first shot was 1/31; a week later on 2/7 I started having headaches that travel around my head: some are behind my eyes and my teeth ache; some more like migraines that go up the back of my head; some more on the top of my head or on the side. My sense of taste changed. My second shot was 2/27. The day after I slept all day. The headaches continued (I have had a headache of one kind or another since 2/7). I had a tooth that broke off last June and was removed on March 8. I thought the tooth was infected and part of the headache problems, but since then I have been having really bad fibro pain and for the week of 3/8- 12 I ran a fever, had chills and more headaches. I was on amoxicillin from 3/8 to 3/14, but the tooth was not that badly infected and is healing well. The headaches do not seem to relate to the tooth. I have had a headache every day since 2/7 of various intensity and in different areas of my head. I am extremely fatigued and need to nap some days. My fibromyalgia symptoms are worse than they ever have been and some nights keep me awake. I also muscle stiffness and spasms in my neck occasionally. This is not normal for me. I saw a ARNP on 3/16 and she tested me for neurologic symptoms. Here are her notes: NEUROLOGIC: negative findings: speech normal, mental status intact, cranial nerves 2-12 intact, gait, including heel, toe, and tandem walking normal, Romberg negative, muscle tone normal, muscle strength normal, rapid alternating movements normal, finger to nose normal, reflexes normal and symmetric I have a video appointment with my primary care provider 3/26 to discuss this further

transferred from shoulder to her neck; shoulder was in pain/ elbow and shoulder were in pain; injection area is a little sore; I cant sleep at night; She can't position her arm in a way that is not painful; deep muscle ache pain; she was miserable; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 76-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection, lot number: EL9266, expiration date: Mar2021), via an unspecified route of administration in left arm on 23Feb2021 as single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Patient's medical history included stomach problem and bleeding problems in her stomach. There were no concomitant medications. The patient said that absolutely everything was okay until she went to get the shot, and was even okay the evening of the shot, then it went down hill from there. She said nothing she has that is related to the pain in her arm, or that she feels she should provide. She did not had any other recent vaccinations or started any new medications. The patient stated that the injection area was a little sore and the area became bigger and bigger by Wednesday (24Feb2021). She woke up on Thursday (25Feb2021) and her elbow and shoulder was in pain, described as a dull pain. The patient stated she has a stomach problem where she can't take medicine. She started treating her pain with aspirin cream with Lidocaine. She said that its kind of worked, it didn't take it away, but more manageable. Now it's been 6 days later (01Mar2021), it was reported a deep deep pain in the point she can't sleep at night. She can't position her arm in a way that is not painful. It was getting unbearable. It transferred from shoulder to her neck on Friday (26Feb2021). It got worse Thursday evening and has been the same since. Patient said, "I am not going to get the second shot if this pain does not go away or if I am going to experience this again." The patient was calling about a possible side effect and was wondering if anyone else had it and does it go away. She was suffering, she wanted to know if the pain she is in, that she is still experiencing will go away. She said that she had a deep muscle ache pain to the point she can't sleep at night. Patient stated that her pain began as soreness at injection site that started Wednesday and then it just got worse and worse and became deeper and deeper just between her shoulder and elbow, a deep constant achy pain. During the day when she is using her arm she can kind of forget the pain, but at night there was no comfortable position she can put her arm in without pain, so she has not been sleeping the last 3-4 nights, she can't sleep, she was miserable. She said she would rather get COVID than this, it was ridiculous. As she has bleeding problems in her stomach, she can't take anything to treat the pain, so she was trying to use lidocaine on her arm, which did at first give some relief but no longer works. She said that the only number listed on the bottle was next to "EXP date, LOT: 19C506, EXP: Mar2021 (as reported)." The outcome of the events was not recovered.

Blood clot in her lower abdominal area; had the worst pain through her side that ran down her left leg and to her ankle; had the worst pain through her side that ran down her left leg and to her ankle; nerves are all tangled up; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 76-year-old female patient received the second dose of bnt162b2 (BNT162B2, Solution for injection, Lot Number: EN6207), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Right on 17Mar2021 13:50 (at 76-years-old) as single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. The vaccine was administered at a hospital. It was not administered at a military facility.

She added that her doctor will do an MRI (magnetic resonance imaging). He will put in a drain if it has not shrunk. The doctor can't do anything because the nerves are all tangled up (2021).

Outcome of nerves are all tangled up was unknown, while outcome of the other events was not recovered.

Her legs got weak; she lost coordination; anxiety was exacerbated by her terrible fatigue; depression was exacerbated by her terrible fatigue; nervousness was exacerbated by her terrible fatigue; nervousness was exacerbated by her terrible fatigue; She noticed that her blood pressure raised after receiving the first dose of the covid vaccine.; Total exhaustion/she is so tired; could not sleep; She experienced pain at the injection site./Her pain got worse and worse; left or right toe will get stuck; hysterical; she is stressed; did not have complete energy; She states that her illness is too much; This is a spontaneous report from a Pfizer sponsored program received from a contactable healthcare professional (patient). A 76-year-old female patient received bnt162b2 (BNT162B2 reported as PFIZER COVID-19 VACCINE), dose 1 intramuscularly administered in the right deltoid on 30Mar2021 10:00 (Lot number: GR8732 or 6R8732 [as reported]; Expiration Date: 31Jul2021) as a single dose for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included blood pressure/hypertension; had breast cancer twice with the last time was in 2010 to unknown date which was 23 years later than the first time she had it (1987). She had infiltrating ductal cancer, stage one, that was HER-2 positive. She states that this is the most malignant breast cancer. She had to have extensive chemotherapy and also took Herceptin every 3 weeks for a year. The overriding symptom from her cancer was extreme fatigue; has been in chronic fatigue syndrome and in bed for 7 years, she was getting over chemo and she can barely walk. She has trouble walking long distances; had a mastectomy from 2010 to an unknown date without lymph node dissection; had a central node dissection; took a wheelchair to the hospital whenever she received the first dose of the covid vaccine; ongoing anxiety, depression and nervousness which is not new to her. She has had this on and off for the past year; and antihistamine that raises her blood pressure dangerously, it does not matter which kind of antihistamine whether it is Benadryl or over the counter. The only antihistamine that does not raise her blood pressure was a children's allergy medication. She took half of a children's dose. It did not raise her blood pressure, but it did not stop her itching. Family history included her mother's sister and she are very sensitive to medications. She has the same type of problems. As her mother's sister has aged, her problems have gotten better. As caller gets older, her problems are getting worse. Concomitant medication included carvedilol taken for blood pressure on unknown therapy dates. The patient previously took dupilumab (DUPIXENT) for skin conditions that having itching which she had side effects (Lot number: 0LU23A; Expiration date: Feb2023). Dupixent is a medication used for skin conditions that having itching, not cirrhosis, she cannot remember the name of the skin condition. Her skin started itching around Jun2020 or Jul2020. She saw eight different dermatologists. She found a doctor who was an itch specialist. Dupixent is the only thing that is going to work for her because antihistamines raise her blood pressure dangerously; and one time her doctor made a mistake, he ordered her hydroxyzine 25mg PO (Per oral). The doctor did not look on her chart to see her allergy list. She cut the pill in half and took half a dose. By the time she realized what she took, she was having so much itching. She woke up and felt like her head was going to explode and her blood pressure was 220/112. She took three tablets of her antihypertensive medication. She taken carvedilol 3.125mg. She did not even bother going to the hospital because by the time they would have saw her, and treated her, she could have had a stroke. The hospital is slow to treat people. Because she is a nurse practitioner, she knew that 3 tablets would be the correct dose for how high (Apr2021) her blood pressure was. She also previously took Benadryl but that raises her blood pressure dangerously. The patient reported that she received her first dose of the covid vaccine on 30Mar2021 and she had many side effects. She reported that the most predominant symptom is total exhaustion. For the first seven days after receiving the first dose of the covid vaccine, she was in bed for seven days nonstop. She placed a large grocery shopping order. She was able to get up and use the bathroom and cook small meals. She had someone come in to help her with the dishes, and to clean up the house. She talked to her internist of 20 years, and he told her to take the vaccine. Within five minutes, she started getting side effects. She inquired if it was safe to take the second dose of the covid vaccine. She has been so fatigued that she has been in bed for a 3 weeks-time frame and then her Blood pressure went up, it was 200 something, like 223/103. She went to the ER, and the ER said her blood pressure was not bad (Apr2021), they put her in the waiting room, and because she waited so long, she just got up and left the ER. Since she is so tired and her Blood pressure is high, she has made an appointment with the doctor. She added that the second week after receiving the first dose of the covid vaccine, she was able to get up every other day and go somewhere but the next day after she went somewhere, she was in bed all day and did not have complete energy (2021). She added that her refrigerator was going out, so someone drove her to department store 30 minutes away. She walked from the car, to the refrigerator section in department store, walked into the mall to get ice cream and then walked back to the car. By the time she got home, she immediately got back in her bed because she was so worn out. That was on Saturday. She was in bed all day yesterday. This morning, she feels better than yesterday. She thought about going to the store yesterday, but she knew she did not have the energy to go. Someone is coming later today to help her, and they will have to go to the store for her since she does not have any family nearby. She mentioned that the total exhaustion began on 31Mar2021. She took a wheelchair to the hospital whenever she received the first dose of the covid vaccine. She has trouble walking long distances. She called the hospital before she went, and the hospital did not have any wheelchairs she could use. The hospital cleared everything out of the way so they could fit the most patients as possible in the building. She had trouble walking the day that she received her first dose of the covid vaccine. Someone wheeled her in and out using her own wheelchair. She cannot go to the grocery store. Using a wheelchair is the only way she could have in and out. She could walk from her wheelchair into the examination room, and then after she went right back into her wheelchair. She is glad that she called because she does not know what she would have done without a wheelchair. It is hard for her to go on, sometimes she just feels like crying. Her trouble walking does not feel 100 percent, but it has gotten better. She is anxious, depressed and nervous also. Before her breast cancer, she had chronic fatigue. She could volunteer at a clinic for a few hours a week. She had radiation, and that caused exacerbation of her chronic fatigue. Her doctor told her that for some people, chemotherapy will make chronic fatigue better and that chemotherapy could help her chronic fatigue. Before she got chronic fatigue syndrome, she had a lot of energy. She used to work in an ICU that had 15 patients, with ambulatory patients on the outside. She worked six days a week then she transferred to a hospital where she took care of patients after they had open heart surgery. She used to be a very high energy person. Her exhaustion has gotten better, because she can get up every other day and leave the house. She cannot stop doing life. It is difficult for her that she cannot go to the grocery store. After seven days, she could go out every other day. Whenever she went to a certain company, she almost fell. Her legs got weak and she lost coordination on Tuesday (06Apr2021). Since then, it has happened a little bit here and there. It is almost like she is not sure when it will happen. In an instance, she can be working in the house, and her left or right toe will get stuck. This happens to her occasionally after chemotherapy. She noticed that her blood pressure raised after receiving the first dose of the covid vaccine (Apr2021) and she takes medication (small dose of carvedilol) for hypertension. She takes her blood pressure medication every other day. Out of the past four days, her blood pressure has been elevated twice (Apr2021). If her blood pressure is elevated more than normal, her doctor prescribed for her to take an extra dose. Her blood pressure has not been elevated dramatically. She did take an extra dose of carvedilol because her blood pressure was within the scope of her blood pressure expertise. She went to the ER and the ER said her blood pressure was not bad (Apr2021), they put her in the waiting room and because she waited so long she just got up and left the ER. Since she is so tired and her Blood pressure is high, she has made an appointment with the doctor. She also stated that her blood pressure went up yesterday last night (18Apr2021), not right after getting the first dose. Last night at 6:00 PM, she took a nap and after she woke up took her blood pressure, she didn't feel anything in specific, she always takes her blood Pressure pill twice a day anyway. When she checked her pressure, it was 223/120 (Apr2021) and immediately took 2 Carvedilol 3.125mg and went to the ER, by the time she got there it was down significantly (Apr2021), but she is anxious and sat there and waited. They said they were going to do some blood work and an EKG but they left her there, so she decided to take a company home. Her Blood pressure has been up, she then went to sleep and after (Apr2021), it was 189/105, 183/105, and 165/95, she is a nervous wreck. She was ill for a long time, she had cancer twice, now she lives alone, she has been alone for all these weeks, her friends are here and there and come over. The Last 3 weeks she has been alone. She hired someone, but it was expensive. Now she feels hysterical (2021), after she saw her blood pressure, last night she was crying, and called the neighbor and they drove her right to the hospital then she was waiting in the ER for so long. She got her first shot on 30Mar2021 and she couldn't do anything in bed for 7 days, she is supposed to get the second shot tomorrow (20Apr2021) but doesn't want to be in bed again like that. She is anxious, depressed and nervous that began on 03Apr2021. During the week, she is distracted by the market. She has not been able to trade, because she does not trust her judgment right now. She did buy one this morning. Anxiety, depression and nervousness is not new to her which she has had this on and off for the past year. She has a lot going on. She needed to sell her two-story house and move to a one-story house that is easily assessable to healthcare and meals. She thinks this is disabling in face that she does not feel strong enough to make a decision. She cannot make a decision and she does not feel good enough too. Her anxiety, depression and nervousness was exacerbated by her terrible fatigue. She is experiencing awful symptoms. She went to the grocery store, and the stumbled and went into a company. She had to carry her milk and other items in slowly, and little by little. She thought this is awful, and she got into bed. She could not do anything. She mentioned that her illness is too much (2021). She was crying and she lives alone. The patient mentioned that the pain at the injection site began four hours after receiving the first dose of the covid vaccine. She received the vaccine at 10:00 AM then started getting really bad pain about 6:00 PM and then about 10:00PM or 11:00PM, it started to get unbearable. By 12:00AM (31Mar2021), the pain was so bad that she could not sleep because of the pain. She was in agony. She took took Tylenol and it did not touch her pain, but her pain got worse and worse, so she took three Tylenol tablets then they worked. She her friend and asked him to come over since she is afraid to take narcotics. She just laid there in bed and spent all night in agony. She tried a thing she put in the freezer and tried heat. She does not remember if either of those worked. The pain resolved about 2 days after. The patient declined safety report, saying that she is stressed and anxious (2021), she just wants to be transferred for her question. The reporter considered the events fatigue aggravated serious and 'anxiety, depression and nervousness was exacerbated by her terrible fatigue' with seriousness criterion of disability while the events blood pressure raised lower extremities weakness of and coordination impaired as medically significant.

A 76-years-old female patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection), dose 2 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Right on 30Jan2021 (76-years-old at the time of vaccination), (Batch/Lot Number: EL9265, Expiry date May2021) as DOSE 2, SINGLE for covid-19 immunisation. The patient medical history and concomitant medications were not reported. The patient previously took dose 1 PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Right on 09Jan2021 12:30(76-years-old at the time of vaccination), (Batch/Lot Number: EL3248; Expiration Date: Apr2021) as DOSE 1, SINGLE for covid-19 immunisation and experienced throat started tightening, Lymph nodes under her jaw were sensitive to the touch, feeling more and more tired, entire body was leaden with lethargy, couldn't do anything, all her joints were aflame, nauseous, pain in muscles, pain in joints, couldn't raise either of her arms, chills, low grade fever of 99.2 degrees Fahrenheit, Fatigue. Patient was dreading getting the second Covid 19 vaccine. One of the questions on the questionnaire she filled out prior to getting her second dose was if she had a severe reaction to any vaccine. She answered yes but no one at the facility asked her about it. She put that she may have had a severe reaction with the first Covid 19 vaccine but no one at the facility questioned it. She put question marks on the questionnaire on that question to indicate she didn't know if she had a severe reaction for sure or not. She did want to have protection against the Covid 19 virus, so she did get the second Covid 19 vaccine. After getting the second Covid 19 vaccine she experienced the same thing going home. Her throat tightened. Her jaw and lymph nodes under her jaw were tender. She was tired but didn't feel the leaden feeling she had with the first Covid 19 vaccine. She was nauseous and had diarrhea. She had muscle pain and joint pain and chills. These symptoms went on for 5 days. She thought she would be ok after the 5 days like she was after her first Covid 19 vaccine dose. On the sixth day she almost passed out in the grocery store. She had to sit on the floor of the grocery store and put her head between her knees. She was dizzy. She was still having the diarrhea, nausea, and chills. It was like having influenza symptoms. She went home that day and got into bed. Then gradually she got better. Maybe around the 9th day after the vaccine she was able to do some things around her house and on the 10th day she was better. Her lymph nodes under her jaw were still swollen. She doesn't know if what she experienced were normal side effects. She found the Pfizer reporting website obtuse. The website indicates there was a time limit to finish a report. She did not file online because she wasn't sure she'd be able to finish in the time limit. She was grateful for protection against the Covid 19 virus and would get the Covid 19 vaccines all over again, but she was not looking forward to getting a Covid 19 vaccine booster. She reported she was very healthy and active. When probed if she had seen her primary care doctor or gone to the emergency department, she reports the hospital was far away. She was living in a rural area in the mountains and did not trust the closest hospital to her. Her doctor friend who was an ophthalmologist told her that her antibodies were really kicking in and that's why she had the reaction to the Covid 19 vaccine like she did. When probing adverse events following any other vaccines, she reports she hasn't had a vaccine since childhood and doesn't remember having any adverse events from her childhood vaccinations. The last vaccine she had prior to the Covid 19 vaccine was the cold vaccine she received in 1992. She'd like to add she also had a rapid heartbeat with the dizziness on the day she almost passed out in the grocery store. That was the sixth day after the second Covid 19 vaccine on 05Feb2021. Her heartbeat was rapid for about a week after starting on 05Feb2021. The clinical outcome of the events lymph nodes under jaw still swollen was not recovered, remaining all events was unknown. No Follow up attempts are possible: No Further information is excepted.

The shot was given in my left shoulder. Two days later the left shoulder blade became rather painful, making movement difficult. E.g. turning my head to the left was very uncomfortable. These symptoms lasted about two days -- by a week later they were gone I used a hot pad and tylenol to become more comfortable. Probably not a very significant issue, but it was uncomfortable, I wondered if I perhaps had "pulled a tendon" or something like that.

A 77-year-old female patient received the first dose of bnt162b2 (Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, Lot number: EL0140), via an unspecified route of administration at the right arm on 13Jan2021 at a single dose for COVID-19 immunization. The patient had anaphylactic shock in the past to a sulfur antibiotic. There were no concomitant medications. She stated she did not have an extreme reaction for the first 3-4 days, it was fine and went away. She had fatigue, joint pain, all the regular things and they were easing up. She had an appointment on the 20Jan2021 and thought things were going okay. On day 7, 20Jan2021, that night, she had an extreme reaction of blinding headache, the shakes, her whole body was shaking out of control for hours, her neck froze completely, and she can't move her head up and down normal (this is still occurring). The patient has had joint paint on 14Jan2021; extreme tiredness, weakness and muscle pain on 15Jan2021; chills, pain in her neck and muscles were so sore from 20Jan2021. She figured that was side effects, and she was handling, and then exactly a week after, she got the shakes so bad she shook for like 5 hours, she had to put nightguard in her mouth to stop from cracking, and severe headaches and her neck completely locked up, she couldn't move her head, and she still can't. She had extreme headache, and she went to the ER on 26Jan2021, since she was in really bad shape, they wouldn't believe her that it was a COVID reaction, she was there for 12 hours, they did every test, she had spinal taps, she had a head X-ray, everything, as they said she had meningitis, but then ruled that out, they wouldn't believe she was having a reaction to the COVID shot, she can't move her head, her joints and that are ok otherwise, but she can't move her head, she has pain in her neck, and she is taking Excedrin for that. She stated her doctor told her to go ahead and take the second dose of the vaccine and just take Tylenol after. She stated Tylenol has no effect whatsoever. If she takes Excedrin the headache will go away and Tylenol won't budge it. She stated she is taking Excedrin regardless of what the doctor says. When asked for age of onset, states she was on Valium and she was not thinking straight, and asked her husband her age. She was not sure why it was given, now provides name as Diazepam 5mg. Muscle pain is fine now, it went away. She went to the doctor on 20Jan2021, as she had a regular appointment for bloodwork to be done, and said she felt pretty good, she had some reaction but was fine, and that night is when she got shakes and shivers so bad, she had 3 quilts on and couldn't warm up, her body was out of control, she couldn't stop, now states for 3-4 hours. Severe headaches started the night of the 20Jan2021. Her neck pain started right after the shakes, so maybe she pulled muscles when she had the shakes, the muscles were so sore, and she couldn't move her head, like down or to the side, she couldn't move it, which is why she went to the hospital, to the ER. She was there for 12 hours. She started taking Excedrin, states she ignored what the doctor told her. She knows her body and she can take Tylenol and Ibuprofen like it is candy, and it does nothing, one Excedrin puts everything away, she swears by Excedrin. The outcome of the event shaking recovered on an unspecified date; Joint pain and Muscle pain recovered on 19Jan2021; Blinding headache/ severe headache, Fatigue/Extreme tiredness was recovering, chills/ shivers, couldn't warm up, Neck froze completely, pulled muscles, fatigue was unknown; she can't move her head up and down normal/ couldn't move her head, Pain in her neck, Muscles were so sore, Weakness was not recovered.

The patient received glycopyrrolate (batch/Lot Number and expiry date were unknown) via unspecified route of administration on an unknown date at a dose of 2 mg tablets daily (once daily in the morning) orally for peptic ulcer. The patient stated that she guesses glycopyrrolate would be expired when the 30 days are up. The patient did not have glycopyrrolate during reporting. The patient had just called the office and ordered a new refill when the freezing thing started. The patient was blind, so she could not read the label and batch number. The patient medical history included blindness called retinitis pigmentosa, diagnosed at 43 years old, she did not take anything for retinitis pigmentosa and it was genetic, ongoing and low thyroid (for several years). Family Medical History was mentioned as none.

Her cardiologist told her there was an injection she could take for her cholesterol every two weeks and it was supposed to be like a "liquid plumber" for your veins. She is so sensitive to medications including all these "statin" medications, there is no way she can take the bi-weekly injection. It might have a much more profound negative affect on her. She was so leery of taking medications, even over the counter medications), gastrooesophageal reflux disease (GERD), 4 cardiac stent placements in 2015, blood pressure abnormal, allergies (unspecified), sinus are swollen, neuralgia, cataract surgery (a year and half ago), retina had swelled and sensitivity to heat.

They made her feel very unwell. She does not take Prednisone for the same reason. She had tried many different steroid eye drops and so many of them gave her a problem. She ended up taking Ilevro. She had no choice but to take it. The Ilevro affected the skin on her face. Her retinas had to stop swelling. Everything is fine now. She has no glaucoma or macular degeneration. This occurred a year and half ago when she had her cataract surgery).

She had stinging on the top and behind her knee and it traveled down towards her ankle and up towards her upper thigh. It was bizarre. She thought about it this morning, 11Jun2021, what it felt like. She remembered way back, long ago, and she was not a sun person, but it felt like how a sunburn would feel. The skin on her left leg feels burning. She used Aspercreme on her leg thinking it will help with the pain. She wiped all the Aspercreme off her leg. She could not cover her left leg. Her left leg felt like it needed cold and not heat. She does have a history of sensitivity to heat. She runs her air conditioner, and she had a ceiling fan above her bed.

I first lost my nail. It was unusual because there was no trauma to the nail. I was reaching for something across my bed, and I started experiencing radiating pain across my chest as well as pressure. I stayed very still and then it spread through my left arm and up into my shoulder, neck ear and jaw. I remained still and tried breathing the best I could. This lasted a minute or two and then it released and was over. About a month later, I was diagnosed with RSV which ran down into my lungs and soon my blood pressure was going up because my heart was working so hard to breathe. It was over 200/175 which is abnormal for me. I had to end up calling an ambulance because I was having trouble breathing. I was prescribed blood pressure medication, steroids, antibiotics, prednisone and oxygen. I was not allowed to get out of bed, I couldn't walk. They told me it would take baby steps.

Except for binding the first finger with the hope it would help (it didn't), I'm not treating them, since of course one can't do anything about osteoarthritis except ease the pain.

She was a volunteer at the hospital. She lost 3 pounds in the last few days from this. She was in no condition to talk to anyone yesterday, and in fact, she was getting hot now.

Neurology consult 2/13/21: This is a 78-year-old female we were consulted by Dr. for possible guillian barre s/p COVID vaccine. The patient tells me that she was in her normal state of health, and she received her 1st dose of the COVID-19 vaccineseen 7 days ago. Subsequent to that, the next day she developed chills, fatigue that continued for approximately 2 days. She states that 3 days ago, she woke up and was unable to lift her legs or get herself out of bed on her own. She felt weak in her proximal lower extremities and her trunk. She denied any bandlike sensations or paresthesias. She cannot tell me that she developed any distal lower extremity weakness initially but felt that it was the acute onset. She needed some help her out of bed when she was upright, she was able to use her walker to slowly get to the factor. She may have had some urinary incontinence, she does complain of diarrhea now. Denies any tingling sensation, no bulbar symptoms. This is a 78-year-old female who we were asked to evaluate for possible Guillain-Barre syndrome. She had acute onset of lower much greater than upper extremity weakness without any definite ascending features, of relevance, is that she received the COVID-19 vaccine 3 days prior to the onset of her symptoms. She did exhibit flu-like symptoms prior to this. Given that she does not have any specific area of intrathecal enhancement to suggest Guillain-Barre or other areas of radiculitis, I think it is reasonable to proceed with lumbar puncture to look for any other source. --Given the findings on the MRI cervical and lumbar spine including enhancement of the bilateral sacral S1 region, I would like Neurosurgery to further evaluate. -- would likely benefit from CT chest abdomen pelvis to rule out any underlying occult malignancy particularly if workup remains unremarkable. -- continue supportive care, monitor for shortness of breath, new vital capacities Patient remains admitted to the hospital with continued weakness at the time of this report

I told my primary care physician about all of this in an email and she replied that my symptoms were "normal." I'm not so sure. I haven't read of anyone else feeling so sick for so long after the first dose of Pfizer.

This nurse (patient) reported that a 78-year-old female patient received second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, batch/lot number: EN6204) at the age of 78-years, via an unspecified route of administration on 04Mar2021 at single dose; first single dose of BNT162B2 (lot: EM9810) on 11Feb2021; both for COVID-19 immunisation.

The patient experienced on 07Mar2021, low grade fever, weakness, chronically dehydrated and cough; on 15Mar2021, rash, acute pain and with deep breaths; on an unspecified date, no desire to eat or drink. Seriousness criteria of these events were reported as disabling. Patient reported that was having major problems, a delayed immune response. Told everybody if this keeps up she was not going to make it. It was wearing her down and she was not going to survive. Occurred after second COVID vaccine. She is active, goes to pool, and does different things. Had vaccine on Thursday and was ok until Sunday. Started Sunday with low grade fever. Kept being low grade and never got to 101, 102, or 103. She didn't take ibuprofen. Usually takes ibuprofen once a day for routine aches and pains. Having weakness. Had no desire to eat or drink. She waited a couple days, but then called her doctor. Doctor's office wouldn't give her an appointment. Stated this wasn't the routine and has been going on for 10 days. This was too much. Two days later, caller's daughter-in-law took her to a place like an ER. A bunch of tests were done. She asked for an IV because she was chronically dehydrated. Weakness was getting to her. After seeing the doctor in the mini surgical ER, she didn't feel any better. She felt the same. Same nausea, weakness, low grade fever, the whole thing. Decided to see her regular doctor. Stated it wasn't her chest. Wanted to be told what was going on. Her regular doctor didn't order any labs. She was given a steroid shot. Thought she was in deep doo-doo. Stated this was not a good sign and she was not going to make it. She woke up yesterday with a rash covering her entire body. She had no clue she had the rash. Never saw the rash. Rash didn't itch, but she still had it. After steroid shot from doctor, she felt a little bit stronger and thought maybe she was going to make it, but then started getting severe pain. Patient was used to having aches and pains that went along with old age and her osteoarthritis. This was severe pain as if she fell and hurt her ribs. It hurts to take deep breaths. Her hip and knee were killing her. It was acute pain, not normal pain. This morning stated she couldn't take it and was going to take ibuprofen, which was not the best for her. She didn't want to eat, but tried to have food in her stomach to take the ibuprofen. She cannot take good deep breaths because of the soreness in her ribs. Thought something in her body was having a delayed immune response and her gut told her it was not good. For low grade fever, did not take ibuprofen, 07Mar2021 was when she started feeling yucky, she wanted to see how she felt and her temperature never really got up, stuck it out, normal temperature for her was 97 or lower, her temperature once in a while would range from 98 to 100.3 or 100.8, she cannot take paracetamol (TYLENOL). For weakness, noticed right away, felt a little better after steroid, had not been out of her door except to the ER. For chronically dehydrated, clarified she had no desire to eat, usually drinks coffee and tea in the morning, but now had no desire, was making herself drink, felt something wasn't right beginning on 07Mar2021, everything went south and got worse, clarified it really wasn't nausea, but no desire to eat or drink, doctor today gave her ondansetron (4mg) which didn't help and made it worse, eating and drinking didn't make her sick, just didn't want it. She had labs done in the ER and was told her labs weren't really that off for her to be that dehydrated. Asked for an IV because she was not drinking what she normally drinks, didn't feel any better after the IV. Rash covering her whole body, but didn't itch. Acute pain and with deep breaths began evening of 15Mar2021, seemed the same today, she just took an ibuprofen a little while ago and was feeling better. Patient also mentioned that realized her body was trying to get monoclonal antibodies and resistance to build up her immunity so that if she ever got infected with COVID virus she could fight it, it was just not working, it was not doing its thing, she was having a delayed immune response, was very worried about that, going on 8-9 days and it was weakening her by the day, didn't think she could take this too much longer. Clarified the COVID Vaccine wasn't working and her body couldn't get its act together. Patient had a slight sore arm after the second dose, never reacted at the injection sight, it was strictly internal, which kind of scares her, something was not right, was having the rash, pain, and severe weakness. Was not expecting any kind of problem. Didn't think too much about the second COVID Vaccine. Stated people were like "oh that second shot." If she didn't get better soon she is not going to do well. Cough was a dry, tight, non-productive cough, lungs were checked yesterday and were clear, felt like all of a sudden she has an urge to cough and nothing comes up. For steroid shot, didn't know if it was dexamethasone (DECADRON) or not, made her feel a little stronger for the day, but then brought on severe aches and pains in her joints and ribs, did not have this until the steroid shot. Patient said that didn't take ibuprofen the first couple days because she didn't want to mess up the immune response starting in her body, asked doctor about immune globulin for her delayed immune response, but doctor shook his head, knew that people with autoimmune are ordered IGE or IGG to test the immune system, asked doctor about this, but he shook his head. Stated she didn't think a CBC with different was performed at the ER, confirmed she was only in the ER after the second dose and was not admitted to the hospital. As of 17Mar2021, she stated then two to three days after that she woke up with rash over her entire body that showed up overnight, that alarmed her even more of course, no itch or nothing, no clue it was there until she washed off and could see it, she had never had a rash before, her arm never got red, but she had a low grade fever, stated now didn't know if good or bad, cough, not productive, some urge to cough, no appetite, not eating or drinking, and increasing weakness, today she couldn't say anything was different about her rash maybe slightly faded but she didn't feel any better, she did get a steroid shot when she went to doctor yesterday and that made her feel less weak. As of 18Mar2021, patient stated that had no reactions for the 1st 2 days following her 2nd dose however she started to feel ill, low grade fever that never went above 100. General feeling of the flu; aches and pain, which she had before but more than usual. She had no urge to eat. Tried to see her doctor when it had been going on for 5 days but they were not concerned. By that Friday, she went to the hospital. They found nothing wrong in her lab tests but she asked them for I.V fluids since she hadn't eaten or drank anything. On Monday, she went back to her initial doctor because she had a rash all over her body, it did not itch and her injection site had no redness. She was given a steroid shot, today she might be feeling a bit better. She lost 10 lbs. She had to stay inside for the past 10 days, except for doctor visits, although she was usually an active person. She would like to know how long the side effects would last.

Caller states four days after the second dose, she wound up in the ER with severe headache, abdominal pain, dry heaves and she had a morbid feeling. Caller states after that, she saw her doctor and for two months she had problems with nausea, severe nausea, where she couldn't eat, lost 13 pounds, hypothyroid went to hyperthyroid, very serious extreme anxiety, which she is still battling. Caller states the Endocrinologist felt it could've been associated with the vaccine. Caller states the ER ran tests and abdominal scans and all they showed were the usual things she knew she had, nothing new. Caller states she asked the ER doctors, and they said they didn't know if it was related and when she asked Endocrinology, they said they don't know for sure. Caller states her Primary doctor said it could be related, anytime a person has a vaccination, if they are immunocompromised or have inflammation, it can possibly trigger this and events occur. Caller states she had dry heaves, an aversion to food, lost weight, and had terrible anxiety, all four days after vaccine. Caller states after the first vaccine, she was fine. Caller states after the second vaccine, she woke up that morning four days after, it was acute, this had never happened before and she had a feeling of doom and dry heaving. Caller states it took her two months, before she started to eat and put the weight back on. Caller states the nausea is gone and she is able to eat and put weight back on. Caller states she still has extreme anxiety and she is seeing a doctor for that and is being medicated so it is persisting by improved with medicaiton. Caller repeats, this all happened four days after her second injection. Caller states no one knows that much about the vaccine but they said something that this reaction should be reported. Caller states the nausea and other GI issues lasted for about two months, but she can't give actual dates of when it recovered. Caller states she doesn't know dates of when the other side effects recovered, but they only thing she still has is the anxiety. Seriousness: Caller states the Nausea was disabling, she couldn't eat at all, she had to drink ensure and boost. Caller states the rest were medically significant. She was worked on by her PCP and Endocrinologist, and they adjusted her thyroid medication to bring back down her levels, and she is sure that is part of the reason for her anxiety and anorexia. Caller states before she had hypothyroid. Treatment: Suppositories, Zofran, Reglan, Anxiety Medication, Adjustment of the thyroid medication Synthroid. States when she lost an extreme amount of weight, her thyroxin increased, so they dropped her dose to the normal range. Causality: Caller states she feels it is related because it was an acute onset and rare for her, even though she is older, she is healthy. Caller states she has had breast cancer but nothing that stopped her from working. Caller states it is hard to know, but she thinks it is related. Caller states her one son was home and called and said mom looks like she is going to pass out and she is not an alarmist and usually would say no, but she said yes, he better make sure that she gets to the ER, she felt impending doom, with abrupt onset. Tests: Caller states they did an Endoscopy and Colonoscopy because of her abdominal pain and they found colitis and proctitis and every, itis, a person can think of along with diverticulosis and inflamed gut, but she already had those, they were not caused by the vaccine, she had them in the past. Outcome of anxiety was recovering, of others was recovered in Jan2021.; Sender's Comments: Based on the temporal relationship between events anxiety, nausea, headache, abdominal pain, retching, malaise, weight decreased, hyperthyroidism, decreased appetite, eating disorder and company suspect BNT162B2, the causal relationship cannot be denied.

She was taking some kind of, the numbers are way down now, she does not think there's a problem but they were thinking she was prediabetic which was probably attributed to her diet. The day before they did the blood test she had ice cream for lunch and for dinner. Then she had the blood test taken the next morning which could have set the numbers off the chart; since then the numbers have gone down. glucose tolerance impaired. They were thinking she was prediabetic and blind from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing, wheelchair user from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing. She only has 1 eye now-left eye; has been legally blind since age 24 years; now left eye is just about gone. She was the 5th person in the world to have Stevens-Johnson syndrome with blindness that could still see and lived. First 3 people with Stevens-Johnson syndrome died-4th lived but was blind.

Adverse reaction was very bad: Started out with pretty bad headache around noontime, 12:00 on 29May2021 with the most severe part of event starting probably about 22:00. From there it went to severe chills and temperature. Then she went to move her left arm where she had gotten the shot and couldn't move it; she tried to move her fingers and make a fist but couldn't do it; the arm was paralyzed. Then her shoulder blades started hurting like hell, like incredible. If she had a gun she would have put it to her head. Then where the neck connects to the body, collar bones she guessed; in between like if she had an adam's apple it would be on both sides of those bones that are right beside the neck, they started hurting like hell. The paralyzed arm the pain coming from that was incredible; then the pain went down to both hips and her back too; but back wasn't as severe as the bones. All of Saturday, 29May2021 into Sunday, 30May2021 she was unable to get out of bed. This whole thing just intensified, she had nobody there; she lives in senior housing, they are confined to their quarters, to their apartments, the whole thing. She did not have access to anyone, had problems with her phone with no dial tone, nothing. Finally on Sunday, 30May2021 early evening she was able to, she would say, slither out of bed on her back and drop her feet over the edge of the mattress so those are kind of like on the floor. Her wheelchair is next to her; she has to get her upper body upright to be in seated position to be able to get into the wheelchair which was damn near impossible to do. She never knew that kind of pain existed. She was then able to get into the bathroom and use that. She had nothing to drink because obviously if you drink have to urinate and use the bathroom there was no way she was going to go through that again. She thought at that time she might as well go and unlock the door so if an ambulance does come they can haul her to the hospital or they could retrieve her body. She was totally convinced she was going to die on Sunday night into Monday morning, 30May2021-31May2021. She was up until 04:30 on Monday morning, 31May2021 because she was so scared if she fell asleep she would pass away in her sleep. The pain she could not describe how bad that was. That was Monday morning, 31May2021, all of this interim information she is discussing here; basically she was a total mess until it started backing off on Wednesday, 02Jun2021. She was told by the commission for the blind, that they were able to set up the appointment with # because she was due for in-home inoculation with J&J but when they had trouble with that it was pulled and the appointments were cancelled. The commission for the blind took it upon themselves to set up appointment for her Pfizer Covid Vaccine which was given at # on 8 #. #-that was where her Pfizer Covid Vaccine was administered. She did not call anyone or go to the doctor, emergency room or hospital; she has life alert but thought it was in God's hands so if he takes her he takes her. She did not call her daughter. She did call her doctor the early part of last week; he wants her to have a blood test to check for antibodies to see how much of the vaccine is in her or how much she is covered. Once he sees those numbers he says maybe she should get the J&J Covid Vaccine, but if she already got the Pfizer Covid Vaccine and with the J&J trouble with that too, that does not even make sense. She asked for information about that. She was due for a physical about a week ago but her daughter was unable to take her to her physical appointment because she had to take granddaughter to hospital because granddaughter has a hole in her heart and they had to do some testing on her. The patient underwent lab test which included body temperature of 108 degree on 29May2021. The outcome of events were unknown. Information about lot/Batch has been requested.

I had no issues with 1st dose. After taking the 2nd dose, I played golf afterwards. By the end of the round, I was having pain in my left foot. The pain got worse to where I couldn't walk on it. The pain went up my leg to my knees. The next day, I went to the Ortho Indi facility. They did an x-ray on me that indicated that there was no structural damage to cause pain. The doctor recommended me to put on a boot that go up to my knees and to ice it. I did that from Wednesday through Sunday. The pain went away. Every now and then I would get a sharp pain in my left foot, but then it goes away.

The patient experienced pain in her pelvis on 31Jan2021, same pain feeling in bladder and pelvis on an unspecified date, sore arm on an unspecified date, had pain that was just in the knee replacements, where knee replacements on unspecified date, pain on 31Jan2021, standing up feels weird on 28Jan2021.This is report 1 of 8. The patient who reported pain standing up feels weird and sore arm after first dose of Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine. Pain on the 3rd day after the first dose of Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine she woke with pain in her pelvis and thought she had a urinary tract-captured as provided as only urinary tract- which she doesn't usually have. Then on the 4th day after first dose of Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine she had the same pain feeling in bladder and pelvis. She was seeing a cancer doctor that day for a 6-month check-up who ran a urine sample, and it was negative. She knew it was negative because that symptom was pretty intense on 3rd and 4th day but then it was gone. The pain took her all the way back to when she had the knee replacement surgeries; she was on Morphine then which she can't do that now; they wouldn't give it to her. She had using Advil and some Celebrex which she was not supposed to use those because of her heart condition which was under control. Advil and Celebrex taken for the pain have done nothing for the pain they are doing nothing they don't touch the pain. Her family doctor suggested she try marijuana. her cancer doctor was trying to get her medical marijuana; but nothing's happened in 6-8 weeks. Pain was making her crazy, did buy the marijuana it comes like candy like little gummy bears to try to alleviate the pain that way but did not get the medical marijuana. The oncologist talked to his secretary and she was told they would contact her in 6 weeks. 6 weeks went by and they haven't contacted her. The Oncologist texted her she told him she hasn't gotten the medical marijuana card yet and you have to pay for the card. So her daughter in Massachusetts can buy marijuana that's legal there-so the patient tried little bit of a gummy bear which did nothing for the pain; so she tried a little more of a gummy bear which still did nothing for the pain; then another day she tried a whole gummy bear which still did nothing for the pain in her knees but she felt kind of fogged up in the head, after 6 days after the first dose of Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine she woke up with both knees that she had a knee replacement in in 2014; and she had basically gotten over most of it; the 6th day after the shot she woke up and had pain that was just in the knee replacements where knee replacements both were. It was excruciating pain it woke her up and she has been pretty bad ever since. That was the most extreme day of pain was 6 days after the first dose of Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine. It was pretty bad and then it woke her up 10May2021 also. For the pain Advil doesn't touch it she has taken 600mg of Advil every day which she was not allowed to take because she had 2 stents in her heart during heart surgery performed in 2020. They don't really want you to take Advil or anything after that. She's pretty much suffering and was probably going to end up in pain management. She got the second dose of Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine and that second dose didn't make any difference did not worsen or affect events. She has to use a walker now; she had really gotten pretty much through that major surgery 5 years ago the double knee replacement surgery which she verified as being in 2014. She never got really great, but she could walk without a cane or any assistance. 09May2021 she when went to the cemetery to spread her deceased husband's ashes and had to use 2 canes so the pain definitely came from the Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine. The patient reporting adverse events with Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine. Mentioned she has been using Advil and some Celebrex taken for pain which have done nothing for the pain they are doing nothing they don't touch the pain. Advil expiry: Jul2023 Lot: WJ22828 UPC/NDC was Unknown on top over the code they use when they do inventory or all. Patient has friends with hip replacements and knee replacements, and no one was saying anything about pain with their replacements. She was thinking the Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine was just attacking the foreign particles in her body which are the knee replacements. Celebrex: Lot/NDC/Expiry: Unknown dispensed in pharmacy vial. The outcome of the event pain in her pelvis was recovering, same pain feeling in bladder and pelvis, sore arm, had pain that was just in the knee replacements, where knee replacements was unknown, pain was recovering, standing up feels weird was recovered on unspecified date. No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information is expected

A 78-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), at same age, dose 2 via an unspecified route of administration on 09Jun2021 (Batch/Lot Number: EW0182; Expiration Date: 31Aug2021) as DOSE 2, SINGLE for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included ongoing Borderline multiple myeloma (Borderline Multiple myeloma for 10-15 years), ongoing Monoclonal gammopathy, covid-19 from Mar2020, Severe allergies, ongoing having a lot of immunology problems going on/ immunocompromised, sarcoidosis from 1970, Russian flu, 5 episodes of anaphylaxis, had 9-10 episodes of total body hives, has been resuscitated twice, B cell blood malignancy, allergic to over 30 drugs and lingering COVID symptoms: dry cough, muscle and joint pain, headache, dizziness, and diarrhea. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. Patient previous received hepatitis vaccines and TB for immunization and experienced did not respond/ nonresponsive, received Swine Flu for immunization and received first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number: EW0173, expiry: 31Aug2021), on 19May2021 (at the age of 78-year-old) as single for COVID-19 immunisation and experienced high fever, joint pain, some weakness in her legs/severe muscle weakness, headache, nausea, she was very ill / She said she was pretty sick for 10 days, diarrhea and muscle pain. The patient experienced dizzy, and severe muscle weakness, and pain/ weakness in legs, both on 10Jun2021 with serious criteria of disability, diarrhea, and had a fever of 102 for 5 days on 10Jun2021. Her immunologist cleared her for the vaccine because she has an unsettling allergy history. He did an immunology review of her allergies and prior vaccination problems before determining if she could get the COVID vaccine. He wrote her a letter that said she had to get the vaccine in a room with an IV ready and the defibrillator ready as well. Her immunologist thought it was prudent she try the first dose. She did have COVID already in 2020. She ended up in the emergency room from the vaccine. She was reticent to get the second dose because she had barely recovered from the first dose when she was due for her second dose. The second dose reaction was different. The day she got the second dose 09Jul2021, she got home okay without problem and went to bed. When she got up in the morning she had trouble getting out of bed. She had difficulty walking. She said she had a severe bilateral leg and sacral pain to the point where she had difficulty walking (10Jun2021). She also said there was numbness in her leg, swelling in her "sacrum," and really horrible radiating pain down both of her legs, front and back. She was fine the day she received the shot, but had great difficulty getting out of bed the next day. She said she still could not drive because she was still dizzy and nauseated. She added that she had headache, nausea, and diarrhea. She said she had on and off diarrhea for 6 or 7 days, and couldn't keep anything down without having it. She said she had severe joint pain, severe muscle weakness, and pain, and had a fever of 102 for 5 days (from 10Jun2021 to 15Jun2021). On the 5th day of her having fever, she said she was struggling to put one foot in front of the other in terms of walking. She said she was also starting to feel as if she was paralyzed. She was having troubles trying to walk normally since there was weakness in her legs. She also said she did not have any appetite. She spent a lot of time in bed, sleeping, and had troubles staying awake. She said she had a bad headache. She said she called 911, and went to the hospital. She stayed there for 2 days. She said it was very unpleasant. She also had neurological problems as well such as extreme difficulty in walking, standing up, and profound leg weakness. However, she said that her neurologist assured her that it would go away within 4 to 5 weeks. She said it has already been 5 weeks since her 2nd dose, but she was still not feeling well. She was improving, but not well. She said she was physically not much better. She was having severe bilateral leg and sacral pain. Her sacrum was hot and swollen so she called the ambulance. She went to the ER because she had difficulty walking. She went to the ER. After five days of the second dose she still had a fever and trouble walking. The ER did multiple scans including a CAT scan of her abdomen and pelvis, an x-ray of her pelvis, and MRI of her upper and lower spine. She also had blood cultures and multiple lab work done. They were trying to rule out Guillain-Barre. She was in the ER for 2 days. She was very sick. The second day she was in the ER they told her she could go home. She thought it was because they were busy. No one explained to her the results of her tests or what was going on. Once her fever was done they didn't have to deal with her anymore. They sent her home when she was still sick with leg pain, trouble walking, and still had diarrhea. She was still nauseated, and was just eating jello. It is week 5 and she is really physically not much better. She can't drive because she was still dizzy and nauseated. She has leg pain, trouble sleeping, and muscle weakness in her legs. She is not recovered from the second dose. She thought she was going to die from it. It took a lot to call 911 especially as a nurse, but the numbness and pain in her legs was really severe. She had such weakness that she had trouble standing up and navigating through her apartment without falling down. She had made slight improvement. She mentioned that she had the flu back in 1988, so she felt very ill, and was in the hospital for 2 weeks. She was a long haul COVID patient who is enrolled in a long haul COVID program. She has been sick for a year and a half now since having COVID. She got COVID in Mar2020, and did not recover well. that is one of the reasons why they delayed her vaccination. She had to do prednisone during that time, and had to wait 6 weeks after completing the Prednisone to get the vaccine. Her baseline was a subnormal temperature of 96.1 because of her immunology issue. So 102 is really high for her. She had lingering COVID symptoms, and was a long haul patient. She had a cyclic problem with dry cough, muscle and joint pain, headache, dizziness, and diarrhea. She would have it bad for 7 days, and then recover a couple of days, and then it repeats itself. She couldn't drive because she was too dizzy and weak to drive. It was not safe to drive. She didn't have enough strength in legs to stop the car. She was seen by a neurologist several days after her emergency room visit. He examined her, and asked her reaction to the Pfizer vaccine. He said he had other patients with similar outcomes. She was immunocompromised . She has had borderline Multiple myeloma for 10-15 years. She has Monoclonal gammopathy, MGUS, she had it for a while. There are periods of time where her protein is elevated making her borderline for myeloma. She has had a couple rounds of prednisone to suppress the protein. She has a positive ANC. She has a multitude of issues. She was diagnosed with sarcoidosis in 1970 bust is in remission. She is tested regularly for sarcoidosis. She thinks she might be having a gallbladder attack now. In the past, she has been a non responder to vaccines. She got out of healthcare for that reason. She did not respond to hepatitis vaccines. She doesn't have NDC/lot/expiration for those vaccines. The infectious disease doctor at the time told her she shouldn't be a nurse for that reason because it put her at risk for hepatitis. She was also nonresponsive to TB. She doesn't have NDC/lot/expiration to any of the ones she has been non responsive to. Last time she was vaccinated she had Swine Flu. She was having a lot of immunology problems going on. The doctor recommended her not get a flu vaccine. It was later discovered that she was a non responder to hepatitis and TB. She has had no flu vaccine since swine flu in the 70s. In 1988 she had the flu, and was in hospital for two weeks and almost died from that. One of the doctors she worked with died from flu. He was a surgeon. He died so she thought she was going to. She barely squeezed by. She was allergic to over 30 drugs'. No information on those drugs provided. She has had 5 episodes of anaphylaxis. She had been resuscitated twice. She has had 9-10 episodes of total body hives. The COVID vaccine knocked her down to 0. She has had to cancel her last 5 weeks of life. She was homebound. She couldn't get out of bed and get dressed. When she had COVID in Mar2020, she had an antibody tested 3 months later and 6 months later that both showed no antibodies. She has a B cell blood malignancy, and the b cells pump up the immune system. So she wasn't surprised she didn't have antibodies. Events caused emergency room visit and physician office visit. The outcomes of events dizzy, severe muscle weakness, and pain/ weakness in legs, She said she had a severe bilateral leg and sacral pain to the point where she had difficulty walking, nausea, diarrhea, had a fever of 102 for 5 days were recovering while other events were unknown.; Sender's Comments: Based on the information in the case report and a plausible temporal relationship, a possible causal relationship between the events "dizziness and muscular pain" and suspect drug 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 went to bed last night and during the night she woke up with excruciating pain in all 10 fingers, just to the area that connects to the hand, nothing in her palm or hand. She couldn't move her fingers for maybe a minute or two. Eventually she was able to move her fingers a little, then more and more and the event stopped, she kind of went back to normal and fell asleep. A couple of hours later she had the same event reoccur, just down to the hand, all 10 fingers, couldn't move them for a few minutes and then after that she could, they seemed to be ok, and she fell asleep again.

headache; some soreness in her arm and it kind of went up to her shoulder; little bit of soreness in her arm; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 79-years-old female patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, formulation: solution for injection, Batch/Lot Number: EW0153) via an unspecified route of administration, administered in left arm on 03Jun2021 13:00 (at the age of 79-years-old) as 1ST DOSE, SINGLE DOSE for covid-19 immunization.

She is trying to be healthier in general. She had so much going on in 2020, like everybody else. Her sister was really ill and she passed away She and her daughter were planning to fly in August and wanted to be fully vaccinated before they fly. She had been through this before as a child when she had the polio vaccine and there are people she knows got polio who are still affect by it as adults. She is also on blood thinners. She got good reports from her eye doctor. She had no eye pressure. A couple days later she saw her primary doctor and everything was good there. She sees her cardiologist on 17Jun2021. The main thing is she had been on blood thinners since Apr2017. She hopes she doesn't have to be on them for the rest of her life, but it's a possibility. She has to take that twice a day. She also takes a high blood pressure medicine and thyroid medication. She was told to tell the nurse to use a smaller needle. She has arthritis in both of her knees which is kind of hereditary. She had a fall after the campfire. They evacuated, and when they came back and fell in a store. She is getting physical therapy. The Pradaxa is quite expensive. She takes it twice a day. She keeps a log. This medication can't have air reach it, so she can't use a pill box with that. She keeps a journal and logs her medicines. She takes eye drops for her glaucoma. She takes a drop in both eyes before bedtime. It gives it a chance to rest and for the drops to absorb. She stated that diabetes runs in her family. On 20Mar2021 she had her first cataract surgery, so they gave her anesthesia for that. Glaucoma, cataract, arthritis, fall. Concomitant medication(s) included dabigatran etexilate mesilate (PRADAXA) taken for anticoagulant therapy from Apr2017 and ongoing, unspecified high blood pressure medication, thyroid medication and eye drops for glaucoma in both eyes before bedtime which would give a chance to rest and for the drops to absorb.

She came home and had a little soreness. She was surprised she didn't have any big noticeable difference. With her arm soreness she was surprised it hurt in her shoulder. If she touches the site she can feel that, but she was okay and was well. On 04Jun2021 she had a headache the next day, and she did take Tylenol. She tried to prolong taking the Tylenol because she heard not to take Tylenol before the vaccine or too soon afterwards to give the vaccine a chance to do its thing. She went ahead and took Tylenol and it worked. It kicked in, and her headache went away the same day. She heard from other people that is was a classic symptom. Her symptoms weren't something she had to stay in bed for. She had a little anxiety before she had the vaccine. She read up as much as she could and decided on Pfizer because she had spoken with other people who had Pfizer. She will continue to wear a mask, she is really good at that. Outcome of the event headache was recovered on 04Jun2021. Outcome of other events it was recovering. Information on Lot/Batch number was available. Additional information has been requested.

About 7 hours after, she noticed that her mouth started to burn. She mentioned that she also had pineapple that day and was not sure if it was caused by the vaccine. On the 09Mar2021, she consulted a nurse practitioner who said that the burning may have been caused by the Pineapple.

Caller said at her age she occasionally breaks out and uses Clindamycin for that. Dermatologist has her using Clindamycin 1 per cent pledgets. Applied twice to face once daily, She stopped 20Mar2021. Given Magic Mouthwash, which was in a pharmacy bottle, she took it once on 18Mar2021, but stopped. It was 5-10ml swish and spit. It made things worse and did not improve it. The doctor forgot to give her a measuring cup, and caller thought she told her a teaspoon. Caller added she tried using a warm cloth on her sinus area and her skin felt like a sunburn. The cloth left a red area around her cheek. Then this Sunday, after using the pledgets, went for a walk, next day noticed her face was really burned, not just face, her neck, arms, but she was not exposed, but had a burning pain, and she still continued to have it.

Well like I said, I woke up and my arm after the shot was sore. The joint was bothering me, and I thought that it was a side effect of the shot and after about a week I had a little bit of movement but still pain. So later in May I finally called the orthopedic doctor. I got an MRI and he said it was a significant tear to the rotator cuff. I did not do anything so I do not know what or how it happened. I just figured it was the COVID vaccine, although the doctor thought it was highly unlikely. I had surgery to repair it on May the 20th 2021, at local hospital. I came home that night after the surgery. The doctor gave me tramadol for the pain as well. I will have another MRI next week, in mid-July 2021.

Patient had her second COVID vaccine on 2/20/21. The next day she developed diffuse body aches. She went on to develop worsening dyspnea and fever to 103°F on February 23. She had a fever again on February 24. The patient also experienced a few episodes of vomiting and diarrhea but no abdominal pain and had pain of the legs, right greater than left. Blotchy red patches of the hands and arms developed. She therefore presented to the ER on 2/25/21. See full history below from infectious disease note on 3/1/21: Patient is an 80 year old female who has a past medical history notable for hypertension, dyslipidemia, and hypothyroidism. The patient was diagnosed with a high-grade lymphoma of the retroperitoneum in 2004 and completed 4 cycles of multi-chemotherapy (Cytoxan, Adriamycin, vincristine, methotrexate, and IT chemotherapy (Magrath-like regimen)). She completed 4 cycles with complete remission on PET scan. The biopsy of a left cervical lymph node in 2007 revealed follicular lymphoma and she completed radiation therapy to the neck with complete remission. A left axillary lymph node biopsy in 2016 revealed grade-3 follicular lymphoma with mixed follicular and diffuse histology. Chemotherapy was pursued. The biopsy of a pelvic lymph node in 2019 was consistent with G1-2 follicular lymphoma.  She completed radiation to the pelvis in May of 2019.  She developed progressive pelvic adenopathy in April of 2020 and received 5 cycles of chemotherapy. Subsequent CT showed improvement in the adenopathy.  Her course was complicated by pulmonary emboli (September 2020).  In November of 2020 she was started on maintenance Rituxan every 2 months.  She received the 2-dose Pfizer COVID vaccine series on 1/29/21 and 2/20/21. With the above background, the patient presented to the emergency room on February 25, 2021 with complaints of diffuse body aches, which had developed that day after receiving her second dose of COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccine.  She went on to develop worsening dyspnea and fever to 103°F on February 23.  She had a fever again on February 24. The patient also experienced a few episodes of vomiting and diarrhea but no abdominal pain and had pain of the legs, right greater than left. Blotchy red patches of the hands and arms developed.  She called Oncology on February 20 and it was recommended that she go to the emergency room for evaluation.   She was afebrile on presentation to the emergency room.  She was tachycardic, however, with a pulse rate of 117 bpm.  She was breathing at 48 breaths per minute.  Blood pressure was 105/80 mmHg.  Oxygen saturation by pulse oximetry was 96%. Examination was notable for paraspinous muscle tenderness, tachypnea, mild respiratory distress, and a mildly distended abdomen.  Mild erythematous patches of the feet and forearm were noted, as well as evidence of edema of the right leg from the knee to the lower leg. The peripheral blood leukocyte count measured 0.8x10e3/µL.  ANC was 0.48x10e3/µL.  Platelets measured 96x10e3/µL.  Creatinine was 0.97 mg/dL.  AST was 86 and ALT 20 U/L. The lactic acid level of the venous blood was 3.6 mmol/L. The procalcitonin level of the blood measured 28.37 ng/mL. The C-reactive protein level was 313.7 mg/deciliter. The creatine kinase (CK) level was 4023 U/L.  LDH measured 314 U/L. Troponin was 3.22 ng/mL.  Urinalysis showed 6-10 wbc?s, 0-2 rbc?s/hpf, 3+ blood, negative nitrites, hyaline and granular casts as well as amorphus crystals. A chest radiograph showed possible, but not definite, mild atelectasis or infiltrate at the left lung base.  A radiograph of the right tibia/fibula showed circumferential soft tissue edema seen within the knee and upper to mid aspect of the lower leg.  EKG showed sinus tachycardia but no evidence of arrhythmia or ischemia. Cultures of specimens of the blood were obtained.  The patient was started empirically on vancomycin and cefepime and was admitted.   Faint erythema and ecchymosis of the right leg extending to the dorsal right foot and right wrist erythema were noted following the patient?s admission.  Her condition subsequently destabilized with increased respiratory rate, worsening pain, and hypotension, so she was transferred to the ICU. An abdominopelvic CT on February 25 revealed a small amount of free fluid in the abdomen around the liver, cholelithiasis with no evidence of acute cholecystitis or biliary dilatation, a nonobstructing 5-mm stone of the mid pole of the left kidney, coronary artery calcifications, mild infiltration of the fat in the inferior retroperitoneum and along the right common iliac region with small nodes in this region, similar compared with September 24, 2020, but improved compared with April 30, 2020, and consistent with response of lymphoma to chemotherapy; a myomatous uterus. A CT scan of the right lower extremity showed extensive edema about the subcutaneous tissues of the right lower leg and infiltration of the fat about the muscles of the right lower leg, likely representing cellulitis and fasciitis, and possible myositis. However, there was no air within the subcutaneous tissues or muscles to suggest necrotizing fasciitis and no evidence of abscess.     The patient?s antibiotic treatment was later changed to vancomycin, piperacillin-tazobactam and clindamycin. Cultures of specimens of the blood were later reported as being positive for methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus on 2/2 sets. Repeat blood cultures (February 26) were positive as well. Her antibiotics were modified to cefazolin monotherapy. Repeat blood cultures on Feb 27 and 28 were negative.   TTE completed 2/27/21 without obvious vegetation.   TODAY (3/1/21): Cultures negative 2/27 and 2/28. Remains on IVIG. Afebrile. She complaints of continued pain in the Right leg and swelling at that left arm. Exam GENERAL: NAD EYES: Sclera and conjunctiva clear NECK: no adenopathy LUNGS: Breath sounds normal and symmetric. No rales or wheezes. HEART: regular rhythm, no murmur appreciated ABDOMEN: Soft without mass, tenderness, organomegaly or hernia. EXTREMITIES: RLE with ecchymosis, slight overlying erythema and anterior blister: blistering more pronounced today. left foot with plantar erythema, some tenderness today. LUE fullness with some heat/tenderness SKIN: No other rashes or other abnormalities are noted. NEUROLOGICAL: alert, appropriate Assessment 1. MSSA septicemia with shock. Positive blood cultures 2/25 and 2/26 thus far. Negative since 2/27. 2. Multifocal cellulitis and interstitial infective myositis of LE- suspect related to above. CT scan was negative for apparent necrotizing infection. 3. Elevated CK due to above- improving 4. Recurrent lymphoma- has been on maintenance rituximab (11/2020). Immunocompromised state. 5. Low immunoglobulins- remains on IVIG 6. Positive urine cultures with Staph aureus- this is typically secondary seeding from bacteremia rather than primary staph uti. CT abd/pelvis negative for nidus of infection along GU track (no renal abscess for example) 7. LUE swelling/tenderness.   Plan 1. Cont Cefazolin without change: goal dosing 8gm/24hr 2. Following repeat blood cultures, negative thus far (tentative D0= 2/27/21) 3. Pending course, anticipate likely TEE--- > presently precluded due to thrombocytopenia 4. Will obtained LUE doppler for completeness given pain/swelling here. Down the line, may need to consider additional imaging (CT?) if concern for abscess, etc). 5. ID will follow along with you.

March 21 was supposed to be the "end" of the final period after my 2nd shot -- On March 21st I started developing aching muscles, joints and neck and waves of nausea along with intermittent muscle wekness & extreme fatigue. It became worse on the 22nd & 23rd so for safety on the 24th I had a "nasal Covid-19 test" done at a Urgent Care facility to determine if I had possibly contracted the Covid-19 virus. The test came back 'negative' -- I did not have an active case of Covid. The symptoms I was experiencing finally calmed down about Friday - the 26th and by Sunday, they were over. It was almost like a further delayed adverse reaction to my final March 6th 2nd dosage shot although the muscle & joint aches and fatigue were worse than just after the 2nd shot?

The patient's concomitant medication included isosorbide. Patient had the first Pfizer shot and wasn't even sore or anything, patient was so happy but that about 4 or 5 hours later about maybe 5 o'Clock, patient had allergic reaction and started to feel a sensation in lip and when she looked in the mirror, what was all that on lip and one side on lip it had turned white and it had lump was extended along lip line, lymph node was swelling up and patient had white lumps on lip which still had but it was going down and some white patches on face. Nothing happened on the 24Feb2021. Patient thought it was the 25Feb2021 that was when all trouble started. Patient felt like nightmare because she started feeling like something was choking her in mouth and next minute patient started coughing, coughing real hard and that was terrible cough then after this strange voice and patient realized it was breathing and it was like somebody has cranky paper in hand which screaming up that's what breath sounded like.

They came within a few minutes, they started questioning about what was happening and they put patient to the emergency room and well they test patient for Covid as well naturally. It was negative, they did it 2 times and it was negative. When they took patient to one of the room in fact patient was frightened because they didn't told patient it was negative. Patient said she got the virus, they said not but patient had to take the oxygen as it's surge to scan on lungs. They said patient had allergic reaction to the vaccine. Patient was supposed to have it but at the same time there was the variant, doctor said patient was 70% covered, didn't have it but patient want to just check the status was with a person like her was allergic. Patient had shots in face and patient did tell them that she had all sorts of things on face. Now patient still had the white lips and couple of patches around mouth and naturally patient was worried like what to do. The patient didn't take the second shot because she was too nervous. Patient went hospitalization on the 25Feb2021 very early, and was relieved on 27Feb2021 (not sure). Reason of Hospitalization: On the University hospital.

Patient said she won't be able breath with them and that was what they did, they 'reflect' her, they said patient had pneumonia which she did not have (Further clarification was unknown). Early the next morning they put patient down 2' o'clock in the morning. Patient wanted to go home, they said patient can't as she had very bad infection in lungs which was completely untrue. The next morning (the same morning early), patient was okay because the pains and everything was gone but she believe the medication they put patient on that caused to short of breath and patient said please don't give her the medication and they did. They only give generic medicine in the hospital and patient took brand name. On 26Feb2021 patient actually called the doctor for all results and she told nothing, patient didn't get the result. Anyway they took patient off one medication, they didn't give it to her and this medication you can not get off of it and through that patient had a headache the whole of the day and the whole day on the 26Feb2021 patient was suffering with very bad headache and kept asking for the medication they said they would give to the patient. Finally the doctor gave only to the aspirin and paracetamol (TYLENOL) that both the same and in the end patient husband have to go and get the pill because they still hadn't given it to patient all day long. Patient said to doctor because she was breathing hard and she said the doctor did this to her by giving these pills that don't agree with her. She told she can not take this medication, anyway the doctor said to patient husband go home and get her medication, and he said so now you are medicating yourself. By the next day patient was ready, she was breathing normally and was ready to go home but late afternoon they said patient should go home but she still had those white patches but they were not as prominent as what they were. Patient whole lip turn white, whatever they did, whatever they gave, patient had sore around mouth and face swollen up.

She also confirmed feeling better. She stated she heard the the second dose of the vaccine caused more reaction than the first dose and would like to validate the information. She explained the first instance she experienced rigors was after a lymphoma treatment. She believed the rigors lasted "12 hours" but was not certain because she "fell asleep and got warmed". The patient felt great all day on 21Jan2021 after receiving her first COVID-19 Vaccine dose. She said almost exactly 12 hours later, she started to have rigors. She was shaking so hard that her hands and body were jerking. Her muscles and joints were hurting, her equilibrium was off, she ached all over, she had pain, felt tired, and she had chills.

She fell asleep for awhile, and then woke up and went to the bathroom. When she went to get out of bed to go to the bathroom, she stood up, and every bone and muscle in her body hurt. She said she was aching all over, and her equilibrium was off. She didn't feel like getting up, and finally went to sleep to get the rigors to stop. She felt cold all the time now, but the rest of her symptoms had improved. She said it seemed like the muscle in her right leg was still pretty sore. She said she recovered from the rigors completely. She had rigors once before when she had an infusion. She clarified the infusion was Rituxan. She said she had a reaction to her first treatment of Rituxan. She said she had rigors when the Rituxan infusion was first started.

She said the infusion staff tried slowing down the Rituxan infusion rate, as well. She said the Rituxan infusion normally takes 2 hours, but after 8 hours, she had only got about 20% of the Rituxan infusion, before the Rituxan infusion was stopped.

She is not on a thyroid medication. They have just been watching it to see. She took the shot. For background, the last couple of months the patient has had abrasions on her head like eczema. She has been going to the Dermatologist for the last year. They have been trying to figure out what is going on. Concomitant medications included Phentermine for weight loss.

She finally got an appointment through the hospital. She was wondering if it is okay to get the second shot. She has had a scalp problem, but nobody knows what it is. They have tried to treat it with a steroid. She has seen several who don't have a clue what is could be. Whatever she has, the vaccine aggravated it 10 times worse. The joint pain was almost 100 % better since yesterday. It was mostly in her feet and knees. She was very dizzy and light headed. She wasn't falling all over the place or anything.

Every test has been negative. She thought at one point it could be the medication she was on. She was taking Phentermine to lose weight. She was wondering if it would have any recourse, but her doctor said no. She quit taking it the day before the shot just in case. She hadn't taken it again until today. The dose is 37.5mg. The way she felt at first, she felt like she had COVID. The patient stated, "I had some reaction to the (first) Pfizer covid 19 shot I took on 23Jan2021 wanted to ask if I would be able to take the 2nd shot. I took the shot fine, got home. The injection site was red, hard, kind of warm. My arm was never sore but the day after into Sunday I felt very washed out and thought I was tired. I have a thyroid issue, I've been having a scalp problem and this sometimes come with my thyroid issue. Little bumps in my scalp, they were kind of under control because of the Clobetasol propriate foam that I put in my hair and ever since then my skin is on fire. But the main thing I was exhausted, joint pain, knees, feet, even my hands. I laid around and for 5-6 days and today is the first real good day. I still have the bumps but I'm seeing a different dermatologist. I have an over active immune system Hashimoto's disease and something can set up a flare."

The lump was moveable, but seemed about the size of a nickle. It scared me even though it was not actually in my breast. The doctor told me since it was moveable and felt smooth he thought it to be a reaction to the Covid vaccine, but ordered a mammogram. I called for the mammogram and was told I could not have one until 4 weeks after the 2nd shot. I have a mammogram scheduled 3/26/2021.

She got the vaccine, and had no reactions at all other than perhaps a chill. About 2-3 weeks later on 3/7/21 she started experiencing what they are calling muscle confusions. She feels a tapping sensation on her biceps and triceps and then starts with muscle cramps running down her right arm creating her fingers to cringe or come together or contract. This then travels down to her right leg to her quadriceps which cramps and convulse and travels to her calves which tighten up like a Charlie Horse and down her toes to where they contract as well. They are intermittent, scattered and sporadic. Sometimes she will get 2-3 a day, and then none at all and then a few days later a couple more. These contractions last 3-5 minutes. She had COVID back in April of 2020 and was hospitalized until August of 2020 with that. During that time she was on a ventilator for 60 days and on a breathing tube and coded and was out for about 30 minutes. She had an EEG of her brain in September and told that she was fine. her neurologist felt she should have another one due to these symptoms, and she had that and everything was normal. The doctor prescribed 500 mg twice a day of Levetiracetam. The seizures kind of regress a little and then they came back and he upped that medication to 1000 mg twice a day. The seizures still continue and have continued but is still taking the medication. He felt that she should know see an epileptic specialist and they have an APT for 5/27/21. These episodes are exhausting and wear her out. She was going to PT due to the weakness from being in the hospital for so long, and now she is fearful if she is going to fall and uses a walker and is having a setback in that progress. She is to continue therapy at home for now and to follow up with the Epilepsy specialist.

These did not happen immediately and after second vaccine, patient did not have any problem till 48 hours, 10 o'clock, she had it on Monday at 12:00 and at 10 o'clock in the evening on Wednesday, she started to get intense pain on right side, she could barely walk and she have never had pain there before and she tried to walk and she was 81, she goes to the bathroom frequently with bladder issues and that was hard and it went on all night. In the morning, she had it not only in right leg but upper side like above the knees but in the front not in the back of the leg and then the next day, when she woke up and then, she had it in the upper side in left leg and closer to the groin and more like around and didn't know what to do and she wasn't going to go to an emergency ward as she was 81 and she doesn't go around that easily. Patient called her doctor, and patient had pain pretty much all day and he said how was it now and told him that it was slightly better. He said more than likely it will go away but he kept saying these are the kind of side effects that they were reporting though flu like achiness was nothing like what she had, she have had the flu (history) and been achy (history) but this wasn't like that. This was intense pain and it kind of changed a little bit during the day but it was still there. Her doctor said, if it doesn't go away by tomorrow morning which was Friday, then make an appointment and come in to see her, she will do blood work or whatever. So, she got an appointment for 2:30, by noon, it was just gone totally gone like if it never had been there. She cancelled the appointment then yesterday she got it back again and she could hardly walk but it wasn't as intense, it was really painful and hard for her to walk and it was around both legs and she doesn't know what to make of that, she went to rheumatologist because she thought she might be having muscle pain in arms from something else, he did some blood work (unknown results), he couldn't make anything out of it and he said he will look at the blood work and he gave her kind of a steroid cream to rub on arm (treatment) which she thought she had a problem but months ago (consumer was not sure). Now she couldn't sleep last night, it was so uncomfortable, and she had to go to the bathroom several times and again it really hurts to walk. So, that was what happened to her and she would not call that achiness of the flu at all. Regarding treatment, patient took Tylenol, do take other medications but nothing unusual and take the same that she always have and by the way the intense pain was only in one leg for twelve to twenty hours and then all of a sudden it began in the left leg as well and slightly with different pace but still on. The one in the right leg was most intense, she could barely stand. For laboratory test, the 'BUN' test was outside of the parameters and after getting several tests he did, she wanted to see if she had some sort of rheumatoid thing and they are all in her record. This was not one of the typically adverse reactions that people reported at least according to what she read and according to aspects of it. The outcome of events pain, muscle pain in arms, and BUN abnormal was unknown while for other events was not recovered. No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information is expected.

A 81-year-old female patient received first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Solution for injection, Batch/Lot number: EN6201; expiration date: 30Jun2021) via an unspecified route of administration, administered in deltoid left on 02Mar2021 11:00 as single dose for COVID-19 immunization.

On an unspecified date, the patient experienced had sore arm and on 02Mar2021 had strong headache, stiffness/neck stiffness, chills, weakness, soreness all over the body, moderate soreness at the injection site after covid 19, joint pain, felt cold, tiny red spot at injection site about the size of a dime, back pain. The events were considered as non-serious by the reporter. Reporter stated that she was a Retired RN, and she had her first dose of the Pfizer Covid vaccine on 02Mar2021 at 11am, and she was scheduled for her second covid immunization on 23Mar2021. Caller has questions about side effects she experienced after the first dose and whether or not she should get the second immunization. Caller states she had a pretty strong reaction to the first injection. Caller states that she had the COVID disease in 22Oct2020, the caller went to the ER and had a positive COVID test because she had a fever, but she was sent home because her lungs were clear. She reported that both her son and her husband also got COVID around that time, but none of them had to be hospitalized. Stated that about an hour after her first injection, some soreness developed at the injection site. Later that afternoon she started to get a strong headache and her arm was getting sorer; in the evening, she started developing more joint pain in multiple joints, all over including, and especially, on her toes and feet; and her left arm was getting more sore, she got the chills, and she felt cold all the time, her temperature was 96.4; caller states that she also developed a tiny dime sized red spot at the injection site. Caller states that she also was thirsty, but she was a diabetic and that might have something to do with it. By the time it was time for her to go to sleep she was stiff and weak all over. She had neck stiffness, the feeling of being kind of stooped over. Caller was worried she would be unable to straighten up. The next morning, she still had weakness, stiffness and soreness, could hardly take a shower. She had to sit on side of tub and had to have her husband help her to get dressed. By about 10am the next day, everything started going away and by noon everything had pretty much cleared up completely and was gone. The pain in caller's feet and joints was gone by lunch and she did not have a fever. Caller states that at dinner that night, she was still weak though, and at the evening meal, she was so weak that she couldn't get up from the chair at the kitchen table alone. Once she was on her feet, she was okay, she could walk, but she uses a cane, especially when she was sick. About an hour or two later, she had a temperature of 99.4. But the next day, she didn't have a fever, and she could use that same chair without help. Caller states that she was fine by Friday and her blood sugar was 95, which was good. Caller states that she had a backache a few days following, but she has had backache before. Caller states that this was her history, she had the COVID, and she had a bleeding ulcer over a year ago now. Caller also saw a Cardiologist and had the watchman device implanted at the end of Sep2020, caller had this procedure to try and help get her off the Eliquis, which she had been on since having the stroke. Caller reports that she also had a Rectal bleed when she was put back on the Eliquis, and her doctors kept her on it because of the stroke. Caller states that she has silent A. Fib and that can throw little clots, so the doctors wanted her on a low dose of Eliquis but apparently that was too much for the caller too. Caller thinks the heart procedure is doing great and doing its job, but she was unable to go in for her follow up to the procedure, because she needed an esophageal echocardiogram to see if the device was sealed over by the heart muscle, and she couldn't have that until Jan2020, because she had to test negative for COVID twice. Caller states that her hemoglobin never really recovered more than 10 since her bleeding ulcer. But her hemoglobin went down to 7.4 and she was sent to the ER at the end of Jan2021, and she had two transfusions, and the next morning her hemoglobin went down to 7, the hospital staff thought that she must be bleeding. So the caller saw a GI doctor who said that the caller needed an endoscopy and colonoscopy to see where this was coming from, to make sure she was not bleeding from the ulcer. They saw the ulcer was healed but irritated, and the colonoscopy removed a couple polyps. The polyps were negative for cancer cells. After the caller had the COVID injection, she had blood in her stool. Caller went to the ER in the evening of 08Mar2021, and she stayed in the ER until the next morning. Caller states that the stool sample did show that there was some blood in her urine (captured as provided by the caller), and the ER did a CT of her abdomen, and they didn't see blood or diverticulitis. Caller does have a history of diverticulosis or internal hemorrhoids. Because things were going on last Fall, and things were rescheduled with the COVID disease, and things, the caller did not get her regular flu shot until 12Jan2021, because she needed two negative COVID tests prior to being able to get the Flu shot. She got two negative COVID tests on 24Dec2020 and 06Jan2021. Caller does not know if having had her flu shot in Jan2021, could have affected it. Caller was concerned and was wondering if she should take the second dose of the COVID vaccine or not. HCP Details: Caller hasn't spoken to her PCP since she was last in the hospital. She tried to call her HCP, but that office was getting a new computer system and they were having a high call volume for COVID stuff, so caller could not get through to them. Caller plans to email her doctor today. Everything has been overwhelming with all these things and people for doctors to juggle. Event Details: Caller reports that the soreness at her injection site, by the next morning, was up into her shoulder. Caller states that her niece, who was not a nurse, called the caller and told her to get the injection three fingers below the shoulder joint, because there were some instances of people getting injected into the shoulder joint. So, caller had soreness at the injection site, but within 24 hours, states that she was just sore all over, but it all went away by the afternoon the next day. Caller states that, she was told that she would have reactions more to the second injection than the first, so that was her concern, was she does not want to get the second injection and then it be worse than what she experienced. Caller had a lot of pain in her toes following the COVID injection, but she has diabetes that was well controlled, and she has neuropathy, and probably arthritis. But caller states that the pain in her toes was worse than normal, following receiving the COVID vaccine. Caller has had a bunionectomy, so she always has some numbness in the toe, and she fell and broke her ankle a few years later. But caller states that the very concerning thing was, following the COVID injection, the joint pain and soreness all over and weakness that she experienced. Caller had the stiffness together with some of the other things from her low hemoglobin anyway, as she has not fully recovered from the blood loss, but she was much better, and after the transfusions she had a hemoglobin of 10. And when caller went to the hospital lately, her hemoglobin was 9.4, and she was having it tested Tuesday morning again. Caller states that it was hard to say that everything she experienced was from the COVID vaccine, as she has a history of some of these things, including weakness. Caller finally got off the Eliquis when the hemoglobin went so low, she stopped the Eliquis maybe on 29Jan2021. Caller states that she was told by her Cardiologist that her symptoms at the time were from low Hemoglobin. Caller states that she was probably walking around with that low hemoglobin for a few days. Weakness: Caller states that at times she gets very fatigued, but she was not so weak right now. But caller states that weakness has been an up and down thing for her for the past few months, even before the COVID vaccine. Treatment: Caller took her normal Aspirin, but she did not take Tylenol even though she was told she could, and she did not take Allegra. She just took her normal medicines. History: When caller had her rectal bleed, she went into the ER on 08Mar2021, and she was sent home the next morning. Caller states that the ER was busy that evening and did not see the doctor until 10 or 11 that evening. But when the tests were finished up around 3am, the caller was told that she could go home or be admitted. Caller asked to go home but not until a little later in the morning, so she could call her family. Knee Bleed: Caller confirms it was aspirated and treated in the ER; she did not have to stay overnight. Caller saw orthopedic doctor a day or two later, and he did not order anything else. Caller walks with a cane now most the time because she is trying to avoid falling. Eliquis: Caller reports that the Eliquis was held for a few days after her GI bleed. She was taking 5mg twice a day from April or May2018. Caller had the GI bleed and the Eliquis was held for a few days and then she went back on it, then had rectal bleeding again. So, after that, caller's dose was reduced to 2.5mg twice day. The doctors did not want to take her off the Eliquis because of her prior stroke, so they just reduced her dose. The Eliquis had been preventing little TIAs and stuff in her hand and mouth and stuff. And that reduced dose was okay for a while. But caller states that she started getting those symptoms back, and several times a day she was getting the numbness, and she was scared she was going to have a stroke, so she said maybe because she was previously on mg twice a day, maybe she should up her dose to 7.5mg, and that worked well. So, caller took 5mg in the morning and 2.5mg in the evening. This was over a weekend, and on Monday the caller wrote her cardiologist, who said this dosing was not normally recommended, but if it was working for the caller, then that is okay. But then in July, the caller got the knee bleed. So, the doctors thought the caller's knee bleed was from the 2.5mg knee bleed but caller thinks she started to get that earlier because she had an episode that was similar before that, caller thought that episode in May or so was just arthritis. But, in Jul2020 her knee became swollen, very painful, and she could not get out of bed. Caller states that her son who was a weightlifter could not get her out of bed. She went to hospital via ambulance where her knee was aspirated. Caller reports that the Eliquis was not stopped due to the knee bleed, she was just told to go back to 2.5mg twice daily. Caller states that her heart doctor said that because she has had a stroke, she has to take the Eliquis to prevent stroke. Caller reports that she initially was not interested in the Watchman implant, but after all this, she decided to get that procedure so she could stop the Eliquis because she was a bleeder. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included colonoscopy: the ulcer was healed but irritated, endoscopy: the ulcer was healed but irritated, haemoglobin: 7.4 on Jan2021, haemoglobin: 7 on Jan2021. The outcome of sore arm and weakness was unknown, headache, stiffness/Neck stiffness, chills, soreness all over the body, moderate soreness at the injection site, Joint pain, felt cold, tiny red spot at injection site about the size of a dime were recovered on 03Mar2021 and back pain recovered on 09Mar2021.; Sender's Comments: Based on the information currently available, a possible contributory role of the suspect vaccine BNT162B2 in triggering the onset of pain in arm,toe,headache,stiffness,chills,weakness,pain,joint pain,feeling cold,vaccination site erythema,pain and pain in toe.

she felt her scalp itch like there were bugs on it/Scalp was just itching like crazy; headache; muscle and joint pains; muscle and joint pains; chills; temperature was 99.8 so the next time I took it and it was 100.8; felt lethargic; didn't get sleep that much; my throat closing up; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer, the patient herself. An 81-year-old female patient received second dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, formulation: Solution for injection, Lot number: ER8732; Expiration Date: 31Jul2021), via an unspecified route of administration, on 26Mar2021 (age at vaccination: 81-year-old), as single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history was reported as none (not heard anything from anybody). There were no concomitant medications; she did not take any medications because she did not know if it was permissible. The patient previously received first dose of bnt162b2 (Lot Number: EN6198 and Expiry: 30Jun2021) on 25Feb2021 and she did not experience side effects from that dose. The patient reported that, yesterday (26Mar2021) was fine, it did not hurt the arm and everything, however, at 2 o'clock this morning, on 27Mar2021, she felt her scalp itch like there were bugs on it. Her scalp was just itching like crazy, and it would not stop itching so she just had to run her fingers through there, got a little bit of alcohol and just kind of rubbed it in there but it was just something under the skin. She then experienced headache, muscle and joint pains, chills, and a fever. She took her temperature, and it was 99.8 so the next time she took it, and it was 100.8, but since then it had got down to 99.7, so she still felt like she had fever. She had a feeling that she was slow and just did not want to do anything and that was how she left the day because she did not know whether she was going to react to it or not but there was no swelling around the injection site, no nausea, did not have swollen lymph gland, heart beat was not fast, did not have a bad rash, dizziness (not clarified further if had dizziness or not), no weakness, maybe weakness from no sleep because she hardly had any sleep and also felt lethargic. She did not see any swelling of face or throat, so she was mainly worried about her throat, maybe her throat closing up. She mentioned that these not concerned her and as long as she could swallow, she did not panic and could bear it. She said that she had been through so many shots in her life and she never had a reaction like that before so she did not think she would be required to go to the emergency room or anything like that because she just did not feel, but she said yes that was important that she take care of this, but it was not emergency in her book. She was so hungry, she just had a muffin and was not vomiting yet, she did not think anything would happen like that, as she did not think it was serious. Reportedly, she did not throw up and she felt like it would be more bearable for her to have food in her belly. She told that, she purposely did not have any lab test done because she knew this COVID was coming up and she had to have 3 boosters that she needed to take, but she was going to take them 2 weeks after. She also reported that, she did not take corrective treatment for fever and itchy scalp, as someone told her not to take anything, Tylenol or an Aspirin, so she did not. The outcome for the events: fever and itchy scalp was recovering (It was improved throughout the day and she walked around the house a lot just, because she exercises), and the outcome was unknown for the rest of the events. No follow-up attempts are possible. No further information is expected.

The clicking of the bone is a situation; Left brother's house about 2100, doesn't even remember driving away; The caller states or passed out or what the heck ever is going on with the caller's brain; The second dose Pfizer Covid 19 Vaccine was given in the right arm and had the bad side effect of excruciating pain 3.5 hours later and the pain was for some reason was in left arm.; In the evening, after done driving around doing shopping on that Saturday, 15MAY2021, did not know she fell asleep on the couch with the radio on; Had wobbly ankles, knees and hips; Had blurry eyes; Tiredness; After receiving the second dose Pfizer Covid 19 Vaccine, was what thought was a blood clot coming from the nasal area; It was extreme pain. It has not done anything but stayed in the muscle occasionally; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer. This 81-year-old female consumer (patient) reported for herself. An 81-year-old female patient received second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Formulation: Solution for injection, Batch/Lot Number: EW0176, Expiration date: 20Aug2021), via intramuscular, administered in right arm on 15May2021 (at the age of 81-year-old) as DOSE 2, SINGLE for COVID-19 immunization. Patient received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Formulation: Solution for injection, Lot Number: EW0164, Expiration date: 20Aug2021), via intramuscular, administered in right arm on 24Apr2021 at 12:15 or 12:30 (at the age of 81-year-old) as DOSE 1, SINGLE. The patient medical history includes Pneumonia cryptococcal (Dormant Lung disease cryptococcus), Osteopenia, Pancreatic disorder, Crohn's disease and Colectomy (2002), Cancer, Diabetes mellitus and Polyp, aphasia and seizures (1996). Dormant Lung disease cryptcoccus, this comes from pigeons, bats and birds poo flying in the air. With allergies the caller breathed it in on some far at the time in year 2000. Checked every year since year 2000. Gastroenterologist after many undisclosed solution for drastic weight loss since year 2018, now several tests have determined the caller's pancreas and stomach are not cooperating with each other. The caller has many issues with what the Gastroenterologist are doing with the caller, she feels like a Guinea pig. Concomitant medications include PANCREATIN (CREON) for Pancreatic disorder, AMITRIPTYLINE for Cerebral disorder and CYANOCOBALAMIN (B12-VITAMIIN). The patient was taking concomitant products creon because stomach and pancreas not cooperating with each other. In relation back up to brain thing drug for that is Amitriptyline. Began taking probably 12 years ago, 10 years ago at least. B12 was taking for memory, began taking probably 4 years ago courtesy of all the testing the general physician had done. The caller states she was lacking in so much and will be on this for the rest of life. Amitriptyline was supposed to take 10mg pill twice a day but don't take twice a day. Caller is getting antsy about putting too many chemicals in the body. When the caller is crying again will take more amitriptyline. So far just upset about current Pfizer situation. Only member to have Crohn's disease and intestines removed. Gall bladder, caller has not gotten. Cancer, diabetes and polyps in family history. On 15May2021, after the vaccination, the patient experienced bad side effects of excruciating pain 3.5 hours later and the pain was for some reason was in left arm. This arm pain lasted off and on for two days. It was extreme pain. It has not done anything but stayed in the muscle occasionally, and the shoulder joint was picking occasionally, on the left and the caller still had the clicking. The pain was a normal like grade of 2 to 3 type pain at the time of this report. Whenever the caller twinges the pain happens on its own. Patient also experienced wobbly ankles, knees and hips. The caller's walking was terrible, caller states this is just persisting but at a lower level. The caller is concerned because she is a fracture risk person because of osteopenia. Patient experienced blurry eyes and tiredness. The caller usually gets blurry eyes when the caller is not hydrated enough because of loss of weight and the ileostomy bag itself is free flowing so the caller's retention is not good to begin with. The caller clarifies the infectious disease doctor when the caller was reviewed in April, prior to receiving the Pfizer Covid Vaccines, knew the caller was under weight and severely effected because the caller wears an ileostomy bag due to Chron's disease and intestines being removed twice. The caller's absorption is not normal to begin with.

It was general, all over. She felt so badly last night (14Apr2021) and didn't feel great this morning. Another reason she was calling was because she saw her neurologist three days before and he scheduled her for an MRI of her head and brain. She had the appointment for the MRI on the 21Apr2021. She had been told that particular test was a magnet test and not radiation. She wanted to make sure there was nothing in the vaccine. They were not sure what the vaccine was going to do. They were not sure what was dealing with. Diarrhea started a couple of days before in Apr2021 when she was out of town, just for one day. It had stopped, she had recovered completely from the diarrhea. Coughing started on 14Apr2021. It was kind of a deeper cough. She had a little coughing 15Apr2021, but mainly body aches that started late 14Apr2021. She hobbled around and went to bed and got up to go to the bathroom and was having a hard time walking because she was so sore on 14Apr2021. The soreness was all over the body. She was having the MRI on her brain and head because she had been having headaches in Apr2021. She has had headaches most of her life. She had seen him (neurologist) several years before. She knew it was her cervical spine because of bone spurs, arthritis, and bulging disc. The doctor said that was the reason for a headache, but this was a different headache. It extended from behind her eye on the left side to the back of her head. It came on suddenly and she would have it for two to three days. Then that side of the head when she was turning in the left direction was sore and hurts. The headaches that felt different had been on and off for the past several months. She would have them for 3 days running and then maybe get a reprieve. She didn't want to take the second vaccine and had that on top of each other with the MRI. She wondered if she could take the second vaccine a little later. She was not comfortable getting it around the same time of the MRI. The outcome of the event diarrhea was recovered in Apr2021, sore was recovering, outcome of the other events was unknown. No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information is expected.

Two days after vaccine I started with pain in my jaw joint down my neck into both arms that lasted 2 minutes, then it came back in a couple hours and now it's still coming and going. It's more in my right arm and I cannot lift my arm when it's happening and it leaves me weak, trembling and in a cold sweat and sometimes I'm real hot. In February I went to the hospital and 4 doctors looked at me, I stayed there one day overnight . I kind of think that I was given the whole vial of the vaccine and want to know how long will it take for it to wear off, I watched them draw up the vaccine and they gave me everything in the vial. I think I got the whole vial.

My mom received the Covid 19 vaccine on Jan 5, 2021 and became very about a week later. I was informed that she tested positive for Covid 19 on January 14th. One January 17th she became very tired and weak and would not eat. Hospice called me and told me that she was in a decline state. I saw her on January 25 and 26 and she was just sleeping and could not open her eyes. Her vitals were good and she seemed to understand when I talked to her - she would squeeze my hand and moan but she could not talk or open her eyes. My mom passed away on January 27, 2021 just 22 days after receiving the Covid 19 vaccine. She was very think to begin with and being to weak and tired to eat resulted in her losing even more weight. Some of the other residents were given fluids to help and they recovered. My mom was not given fluids. I believe there were 20 deaths in her care home for the month of January when they vaccinated. This was an alarming number of deaths for the home. The facility had very few Covid deaths in 2019 and 2020. I asked every week if they had any Covid and or Covid deaths and this amount was shocking to me and the workers there.

At late in the day on 04Mar2021, she experienced a lot of problems which she mentioned was the worst experience in her life. She was 99% sure it was from the vaccine because she didn't experience anything like that before getting the vaccine. She mentioned that she experienced side effects all night like her heart beating really fast, a headache, a stiff neck, her nerves pounding all throughout her body, and a blood pressure of 174/78. She mentioned that it was the worst she's felt so far as compared to going to the ER, as she's experienced before. She did not go to the ER as she could not drive herself and she was living alone. She mentioned that she better the next day although it was not totally gone, she was a little shake and kind of weak. As of calling, she said that she was feeling okay and better than yesterday (07Mar2021) in which the effects were still present. She mentioned that it was horrible, very scary, she was very ill, very uncomfortable, really bad, and didn't want to go through that again. She didn't know if she would make it through the night. She was asking for what to do and asking if there needed to be an adjustment for her dose because she was a very small person. She didn't want to have the 2nd shot if she went through that again. It was the worst experience of her life. She was not sure what to do now about her second shot. She had the first shot 02Mar2021 and everything was fine, 03Mar2021 she was okay but on 04Mar2021 she had, by night time, she had a lot of scary things that had never happened to her before.

She said the day after that happened, she was shaky but today (08Mar2021) she was fine. She did not know what it would be medications they are looking for but she was on normal medicine for old people she guesses. This was so bad that she really was not going to take the second dose unless they can tell her if she should or that they should give her less or something like that.

Six days after the second dose of Pfizer I started experiencing shortness of breath so I went to the ER and took a chest x-ray and had fluid in my lungs. Doctors discovered I had Atrial Fibrillation. In January I had an Echo Cardiogram and none of the previous described diagnoses were present then. I was admitted; doctors attempted to shock my heart back into rhythm several times but were unsuccessful. Therefore, I was put on Eliquis (5mg) and a water pill to get rid of the fluid in my lungs (and swollen ankles). I was hospitalized for 9 days where I was evaluated through numerous tests. Eventually it was suggested that I undergo the Watchman's Procedure to get off blood thinners. Everything went well with that surgery on Thursday May 20th; complications arose after the surgery: heart rate and blood pressure spike, lungs started filling up with fluid. Ended up in ICU for four days. I still have a problem with my lungs despite having no history of lung problems and I am now dealing with AFIB. This all started 6 days after my second shot.

A 84-years-old female patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Right on 20Feb2021 16:30 at 84-years-old (Batch/Lot Number: EL9264) as dose 2, single for COVID-19 immunization.

Patient had both Pfizer Covid Shots. She had side effects and had to be rushed to the hospital. They are sending her a bill, and she felt that she should not have to pay the hospital bill. Her insurance paid so much and the bill is for $250 that she doesn't have. It is for the ambulance. The vaccine was for Covid. She had the first dose on 30Jan2021 and the second on 20Feb2021. 2 days after the second one she had to be rushed to the hospital. She was getting chills, back aches, and all kinds of complications. She couldn't even move, and she called an ambulance. Her insurance left her with a $250 bill. She called the ambulance to say it is due to the Covid shot. Each time she called she waited over an hour. Yesterday she waited over an hour and a half. She is a little disgusted. Now she got a bill from the hospital, and she figured it was related to the Covid shot. She thinks they gave her a shot at the hospital. It was quite an experience. After she was admitted to the hospital for a couple hours that Saturday or Sunday so she thinks she was in the hospital on 21Feb2021, they gave her a shot and she started seeing things. It was an experience she doesn't want to go through again. She has no idea what the shot was, she thinks it was for the pain. They sent her home and gave her pills to take for the pain. She doesn't want to take too many pills for pain. The pills are Hydrocodone Acetaminophen, she takes one half to 1 tablet as needed for pain for up to 3 days. They are in an amber colored pharmacy bottle. It says OTY6. She couldn't walk 2 days after she had the second shot (22Feb2021). Back aches: She more of less ignored it. She took Tylenol and that didn't help. That Sunday she more or less started aching and couldn't breathe. She told her husband she had to get out of there. She just took regular Tylenol, expiration date: Nov2023. She does not see a lot number. Each one is 500mg. She has arthritis too. It is an over the counter medication. Couldn't breathe 2 days after she had the second shot. As a matter of fact, they had to lift her off of the bed. It was on and off for a couple of hours. She can't remember if she had any tests done. Adverse Event Chills, couldn't breathe, couldn't walk, and back aches time of onset (24-hour clock) was about 13:00 or 14:00. She did not take any other vaccinations within four weeks prior to the first administration date of the suspect vaccine. She asked the doctor before taking the vaccine, and he said it wouldn't affect her at all. On the paper it specifies if she has any side effect to call the ambulance which she did. She cannot get them on the phone and waited over an hour. The outcome of the events was unknown. No follow-up attempts are possible. No further information expected.

85 2021-07-23 joint pain SUMMARY: New onset of arthritis-like joint pain affecting bilateral fingers, wrists, elbows, should... Read more
SUMMARY: New onset of arthritis-like joint pain affecting bilateral fingers, wrists, elbows, shoulders, and knees. Pain onset was temporally associated with the second COVID-19 vaccine shot. It began within one week of the shot and has persisted since then. "At times it is extremely painful and throbs. It affects me at night and sometimes the pain keeps me awake, but it is especially bad in the mornings. Sometimes I have pain both in pulling the blanket over me at night and taking it off in the morning. It has gotten so bad that I dread getting up each day. Some days I can barely get out of bed. I do feel better after I am up and moving around. Oddly, the pain moves from one area to another, affecting different joints in my body. It doesn't stay consistently in the same joint(s). It is really weird. I've had occasional aches before, such as in my lower back, but I have never felt anything like this. It is definitely new and came on all of a sudden. I believe that the vaccine triggered something in my immune system that has caused this new joint pain. CHRONOLOGY: I had my first Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine shot on February 10, 2021. Three weeks later, I had my second shot on March 4, 2021. Ever since then (beginning approximately on March 10, 2021), I have had these new and very bizarre aches in my joints. It started in my left fingers. They felt extremely stiff in the mornings and I had numbness and tingling in my hand. It felt like I couldn't even move it. It was weird. I have never felt anything like it before. It's not you usual "pins and needles" when your arm "goes to sleep." Shortly after that, it affected my right hand too. Some mornings it is almost impossible to straighten them. They are so stiff that I feel like I am going to break them if I move them. It didn't happen every morning at first, but it is becoming more consistent, over time. Once I get up and start moving in the morning, the joint pain usually goes away. Sometimes, I have a shooting pain in my hands and I think there may be nerve damage. I have also noticed that my grip strength in my hands has decreased. My hands are much weaker than they used to be. In addition to my bilateral fingers, this new arthritis has affected my bilateral wrists, elbows, and my right shoulder. When I saw my PCP on April 6th, 2021, my knees were not affected because I remember being able to get up from a seated position very easily. My doctor even commented on how agile I was. That has generally been true for me over the years. In the last month, though, since approximately June 15th, 2021 my knees have started to be affected by the same pain and stiffness. I notice it especially when I am getting up from a seated position. I have to hold onto something for support. Then, on approximately July 1, 2021, the pain and stiffness also started affecting my left shoulder. My right shoulder bothers me less now. It is very strange how the pain seems to move around from one area to another. So far, it has not affected my neck, my hips, or my feet. When I saw my PCP on April 6th, 2021, it was because I was having a lot of fatigue and I felt short of breath. I also told him about my joint pain and how I thought the vaccine caused it, since it seemed to start right after the second dose, but he dismissed it as being arthritis. I knew, however, that this was new for me and that I had never had it before. When I saw my Pulmonologist shortly thereafter, I told her about my symptoms and how I thought the vaccine had caused them. She said, "It absolutely could be." The most severe pain I have experienced to-date has been in my right wrist. I remember a sharp pain one day in February 2021, when I was trying to twist an ice cube tray. I do not recall if this was before or after my first vaccine shot on February 10, 2021. The tray was frozen pretty solid and it was hard to twist it to get the ice cubes out. I am left-handed and I remember that my right wrist was sore for several days afterwards. That right wrist pain still comes and goes. Sometimes I feel it every morning for a while, and then I won't. I have kept my wrist wrapped in a bandage and I am careful with how I use it, but I must have done something to aggravate it, because on Monday morning, May 24th, 2021, I got up to go to the bathroom and my right wrist hurt a lot. I had a hard time pulling up my underwear and pants. My right shoulder bothered me too. I got back into bed but I had a hard time pulling the covers back up over me. The pain worsened. It was almost unbearable and I was in tears. My husband got up a little later to go use the bathroom. He asked if I was okay and I said, "No, my wrist is killing me and I cant go back to sleep." He brought me hot washcloths to wrap around my wrist and this helped. He must have brought me fifty hot washcloths. The next morning, I called my PCP and asked for a referral to see a rheumatologist. I have an appointment pending on August 5, 2021. Then, on Wednesday, May 26, 2021, my right wrist pain was excruciating. I contacted my PCP and made an appointment for the next day. The pain subsided a bit and I kept my wrist wrapped. I was careful with how I used it, but the pain started up again in the morning after I got dressed. I was in tears because it hurt so much. I couldn't even touch it. It was swollen. I had trouble moving my right 4th and 5th fingers too. I used a heating pad and took Tylenol and they helped to take the edge off, but it still hurt. I wondered if I had a fracture or a torn tendon or ligament. I asked my doctor to give me an order for imaging so that I wouldn't have to go through the ER. The A.P. x-ray of my wrist did not show any fractures, but my doctor wrote in his note that there is a "deformity" in the wrist. I have tried a topical pain reliever, Aspercream, with minimal relief. I have not had the excruciating pain in my right wrist since May. I had hoped that the arthritis-like pain and stiffness would gradually go away with time, but it has persisted, off and on. Most mornings, I continue to have pain. I am now afraid to get a booster shot of the COVID vaccine if one is need because I don't want my pain to get worse."

Congestive cough; Weakness; didn't have an appetite; legs felt stiff, or almost frozen; Severe muscle weakness/extreme weakness was only in her mother's lower body; tremendous fatigue/Tiredness; Couldn't walk; This is a spontaneous report from contactable consumers. An 86-year-old female patient (mother) received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) via an unspecified route of administration at left arm on 12Jan2021 10:15 at single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included ongoing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) for years; COVID-19 Virus from 23Apr2020 to an unknown date, patient was not on a vent or in the ICU but did receive plasma as part of her COVID-19 Virus treatment; ongoing cough. Caller's grandmother had Multiple Sclerosis. There were no concomitant medications. The patient received her first Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine dose, and had significant side effects. Patient weight was 175 lbs as provided by caller, who stated her mother recently moved into an independent living facility, and gained weight because the facility has a really good pastry chef. Patient height, reported her mother shrunk, and was 5'5-1/2". Reported her mother couldn't walk after receiving the first dose. She said her mother was not able to walk the next morning, 13Jan2021. The caller stated she had to spend 3 days with her mother, after her mother received her first COVID-19 Vaccine dose on 12Jan2021. Reported she thought initially what her mother was experiencing was either neurological or muscular. She said it was like her mother's brain wanted her to move, but her mother's legs wouldn't move. She said her mother needed to use a walker and have someone hold her from behind. She said now, at a week later, her mother still was not back to normal. She clarified her mother needed a walker to maneuver around, but didn't need someone holding her from behind. Reported she assumed her mother may have had tiredness, weakness, severe muscle weakness from receiving the first COVID-19 Vaccine dose. She clarified if her mother wasn't able to walk after receiving the first COVID-19 Vaccine dose, then what her mother had was the epitome of weakness, and the weakness was only in her mother's lower body. She said her mother had tremendous fatigue on days 2, 3, and 4 after receiving the first dose. She said her mother was able to function as of 19Jan2021, but her mother couldn't keep her eyes open during that time period. Reported her mother developed a congestive cough. She said her mother's cough was not continual, but persisting. She stated her mother said the cough was there before she had her first dose of the COVID-19 Vaccine. The caller stated she disagreed with her mother. She said her mother has COPD, but her mother was not a cougher. She said her mother's cough now, reminded her of the cough her mother had when her mother had the COVID-19 Virus in 2020. She clarified her mother was tested on 23Apr2020 for the COVID-19 Virus, and diagnosed positive for the virus on 24Apr2020. The caller said she was perplexed by her mother's cough, and her mother will be seeing her doctor this Thursday, 21Jan2021. She said she gave her mother some Robitussin for the cough. She said her mother's cough was not persistent, but the cough was still there. She said her mother's cough was not constant, but her mother's cough was congested. She said she didn't know when her mother's cough started. She said she thought giving her mother the Robitussin doses was kind of insignificant, because her mother did not have a constant cough, where she needed to take the Robitussin. She said her mother didn't even use half of a normal sized Robitussin bottle. Caller stated she did not have the Robitussin UPC, Lot, and Expiration Date. Reported her mother has an annual lung x-ray and MRI, clarifying she believed her mother had both within the past 3 months. Reported her mother was concerned about receiving the second COVID-19 Vaccine dose. She said she told her mother that it was better to get the second dose of the COVID-19 Vaccine than to get the COVID-19 Virus again. Reported her mother had asked her primary care doctor if she should get the COVID-19 Vaccine, and her doctor told her absolutely. She said her doctor told her she needed to take the COVID-19 Vaccine even if she had the plasma treatment with the COVID-19 Virus in Apr2020. Reported she planned to stay with her mother after her mother received the second COVID-19 Vaccine dose. She said she didn't anticipate her mother having a reaction after the first COVID-19 Vaccine dose because people said most reactions are happening after getting the second COVID-19 Vaccine dose. She said now people are reporting having reactions after the first COVID-19 Vaccine dose. Reported she thought her mother's side effect after having the COVID-19 Vaccine to be unusual, since most people say it feels like they have the flu, or they are tired, or they have a headache. Reported her mother not to be able to walk wasn't that her mother was not walking, but that her mother's foot wouldn't move. She said mother not walking was either neurologic or muscular, unless that is what extreme weakness is. She said she wondered if others have experienced what her mother has. She said if her mother was experiencing just extreme weakness, the extreme weakness was only in her mother's lower body, not in her upper body. She said her mother didn't have an appetite, but her mother was not too weak to put a spoon to her mouth. She said her mother couldn't move her legs, and her mother said her legs felt stiff, or almost frozen. She said if her mother had extreme weakness, and couldn't walk, what did that mean. She said if a person is really tired, the person can still move and get out of bed. She said her mother said she was really, really tired, and couldn't move. The caller said her mother said she couldn't move, and it took her mother 20 minutes to get her legs over the side of the bed. She said her mother not being able to move her legs could be extreme weakness, but observing her mother first hand, she said it looked like her mother not being able to move her legs was neurologic. She said her mother was strong in character and body, and her mother would do everything she could in her body to move, but it was like her mother's brain said "go", and her body said "not now". The outcome of the event Congestive cough was not recovered, of the other events was unknown. Information on the lot/batch number has been requested.

The day after the first shot, my mother had bad knee pain in her left knee. It went on for days/week. After the second dose, days out she started feel very tired and bad pain in her feet that went to her hands and she couldn't get out of bed or urinate properly. Her facility doctor gave her Gabepentin for the pain but it did not help. She declined over a week or so and then She was admitted into the hospital for dehydration (March 19, 2021). The put a catheter in her to get urine out and bring her kidney function back to her normal (she does have kidney disease). Gave her more Gabepentin (which does not help pain in feet an hands) and released her to rehab. and she is now on oxygen. Rehab was bad so I got her out and released to her facility so she could receive rehab there. She declined again with the same reaction: extreme fatigue, can't walk and now urinates and defecates in an adult diaper and now breathing is very labored. She was admitted to the hospital and they can't find out why she is in this way. They did blood work, tests, scan and X-rays without any answers. They switched up meds on her and then released her to rehab since she hasn't walked in weeks/month at this point. She is regaining strength but now on oxygen even when sitting. She is 86 and walked with a walker all around her facility and when going to doctor appointments. Now she is in a wheelchair for doctor appointments since she has no strength and needs oxygen to walk. Her facility saw her decline after the second shot and my mom is very vocal and each day told them how she felt awful and it is because of the shot.

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

Twisted her knee a little bit/folding chair came down and slammed down onto her knee; Deep bruise; could only remember the itchy thing; problem with her knee on left side; Weakness to right arm; Arm just reacted strangely, ache, hurt like a toothache just where the vaccine had been placed; Arm just reacted strangely, ache, hurt like a toothache just where the vaccine had been placed; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 86-year-old female patient received second dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE, Solution for injection, Batch/Lot Number: EL9266; Expiration Date: 31May2021), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in arm right on 18Feb2021 as 2nd dose, single dose for covid-19 immunisation. The patient medical history and concomitant medications were not reported. The patient previously received first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE, Solution for injection, Batch/Lot Number: EL9265, Expiry: 20May2021), dose injection to right arm, not too high up on the shoulder. The patient experienced calling to report pain, weakness to right arm, twisted her knee a little bit/folding chair came down and slammed down onto her knee, deep bruise, she hasn't gotten the vaccine for shingles, could only remember the itchy thing, problem with her knee on left side on an unspecified date, second dose hurt when it went in on 18Feb2021, arm had also sort of lost the strength in it too on an unspecified date in Mar2021, arm just reacted strangely, ache, hurt like a toothache just where the vaccine had been placed on an unspecified date in Mar2021. Patient reported that there is a dot where the second dose needle went in her arm. She do not have COVID so assumed she should get it so they could keep living. After the first dose she do not even feel anything, had no reaction to that. The second dose hurt when it went in, but she thought it would go away. So for about 3 weeks she was fine after that. Starting on unknown date in Mar2021, about 3 weeks after she was administered the second dose her arm just reacted strangely, ache, hurt like a toothache just where the vaccine had been placed. It continued that way. Her arm had also sort of lost the strength in it too which still was not returned totally. Events are ongoing, still every once in a while would come back like a toothache; people say it would go away. She asked the expected duration of events; and if potential third dose is or is not recommended relative to events. Patient thought she was about 5 feet and keeps getting shorter, used to be more than 5 feet tall. But she vacuums, moves things around, trying to do what she should do; but events are continuing and she just wondered how long it would continue yet before it went away. Doctor said they would get a third dose of the Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine, and she do not know whether she should relative to these events. The reason she got the Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine doses in the right arm is because 2 years ago when she got the flu shot patient had a reaction where site was very red; so she thought she was not going to get injection in the left arm again because she is left handed. She knows that not supposed to get other vaccines, so she has not gotten the vaccine for shingles. The harder she tries to remember the worse it is, then she remembered vaccine for shingles. The physician put cortisone in her shoulder because he said it was something else, that he really do not think it was from the shot. She thought well she has had no accident, no fall, no bang, nothing to produce this other than the shot. He looked at it and gave her some exercises to do, so she was going to continue with therapy at the clinic; she goes to see the lady next week. Before all this happened it was going on and on and on. She had a problem with her knee on left side which the doctor looked at during that appointment. After the Pfizer Covid-19 Vaccine was administered, about 6 weeks ago she was working out in the yard. She do not think it had anything to do with the vaccine. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included x-ray: unknown results on unspecified date. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of calling to report pain, weakness to right arm, second dose hurt when it went in, arm had also sort of lost the strength in it too, twisted her knee a little bit/folding chair came down and slammed down onto her knee, deep bruise, arm just reacted strangely, ache, hurt like a toothache just where the vaccine had been placed, arm just reacted strangely, she hasn't gotten the vaccine for shingles, could only remember the itchy thing, problem with her knee on left side. The seriousness of the events was medically significant. The clinical outcome of arm had also sort of lost the strength in it too, deep bruise were recovering, of the arm just reacted strangely, ache, hurt like a toothache just where the vaccine had been placed were not recovered, of the calling to report pain, weakness to right arm, hurt when it, second dose hurt when it went in, twisted her knee a little bit/folding chair came down and slammed down onto her knee went in, she hasn't gotten the vaccine for shingles, could only remember the itchy thing and problem with her knee were unknown.

A 86-years-old female patient received first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE, Solution for injection, Batch/Lot number was not reported), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 15Jun2021 (at the age of 86-years-old) as DOSE 1, SINGLE for covid-19 immunisation.

She has since been discharged home, is in a weakened state and was advised not to get the 2nd shot. Caller concerned that 2 individuals came over to her mothers house to administer the vaccine. Patient was advised no to receive the second dose Pfizer Covid 19 Vaccine by the doctor. Yesterday (16Jun2021), the caller's mother ended up in the emergency room with an adverse reaction: clarified her mother was discharged from the emergency room. The patient arm was still hurting.

Forty minutes after second shot, I got a bad pain in the back of my upper right thigh. I had to limp to my apartment. I didn't think it could be related to the vaccine as it was so soon, and only in the one place. It had lasted until now and I've had three physical therapy visits so far, though it is not as bad, but it's over three weeks. I didn't think it could be related until my doctor's office said they had four cases of the exact same thing, and in younger people. (20's and 30's). At first, the PT said it was due to a pulled muscle, though I had done nothing at all to account for that.

The pharmacy gave her about 5 other medications that end with 'cycline' and she was highly allergic to all of that so when she goes to the doctor she cannot take anything that has that in it. There were no concomitant medications. About a week after her second dose, she started having severe headache, pain in her legs, weakness, and fatigue. At one point, she collapsed because of weakness in her legs.

On 14Feb2021 she saw her primary care doctor for severe headache. She was sent to the emergency room for the severe headache where she had a CAT scan in case she was having a brain bleed or stroke, but everything checked out just fine, they thought they were safe.

On 22Feb2021 she was prescribed Cyclobenzaprine as a muscle relaxer and Tramadol as pain medication. Before she took any of the Cyclobenzaprine or Tramadol on the night of 22Feb2021 her legs collapsed on her.

Each time they were seen by the doctor or at urgent care they drew blood and said everything was ok. On 02Mar2021 they started thinking maybe it's the Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine. She called to ask if these events are side effects of the Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine.

This 89-year-old female patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Lot number PFREL1283, Expiration Date 30Apr2021), via intramuscular, on 15Jan2021 (at 12:00) at a single dose on the left arm for COVID-19 immunisation. Relevant medical history included ongoing lymphoedema (she gets water in her legs), ongoing severe arthritis of both knee caps (she had a cortisone shot and lidocaine in her knees), and dust allergy. Historical vaccine included flu vaccine received in Jan2020 and in Oct2020 (with terrible reaction: pain in arm, numb in arm and muscle pain arm for 6 weeks). Past drug history included allergy to lidocaine (her face swelled up), and hydrocortisone (CORTISONE). She was in a wheelchair. Surgical history included 2 hip replacements. Relevant concomitant medications included drug for lymphoedema. The patient stated she started having side effects almost immediately after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine. She felt very panicky, felt very weak, felt very tired. She had like a headache. Some of the symptoms started the day she got the shot and then more symptoms arose the day after. She was very tired and was sleeping a lot the next day. She felt very like groggy. In fact, she was so groggy, she pressed the wrong button in her chair. She clarified she has lymphedema and she has to be in a lift chair to keep her legs elevated. When she needs to get up, she presses a certain button to raise and lift the chair into a sitting position. However, that day, her doorbell rang (her meals are delivered to her) and she was so groggy and confused, that she pressed the button that put her straight out into a lying position instead of a sitting position. She ended up sliding off the chair and onto the floor. She had to call for assistance (there is an emergency button she can press). She had to be lifted off the floor. She explained to them she didn't end up on the floor from walking, she slid off the chair. She was so disoriented she pressed the wrong button. She felt like she had the flu, she was cold, she had the chills. She was laying down, covered up with 2 blankets. She couldn't move. It was terrible. At the time, she slid off the chair, she had to go the bathroom. She is on a water pill which makes things worse, but she has a bedside commode close to her lift chair. When she was trying to get off the chair go to the bathroom (which is only 4 or 5 steps away from the commode), she was so disoriented, she pressed the wrong button. She has had this chair for 5 years. She slid off the chair and ended up hitting the floor with her rear end. She remained on the nice cold floor (its a ceramic tile floor) until they came to pick her up. She mentioned she has had 2 hip replacements and once she is on the floor, she can't get up. Once assistance from where she lives came to pick her up, she was asked if she need to go the hospital or call ambulance. She explained to them she didn't fall. She slid off the chair.
