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

Shot given around 1125 am. Pt and pt's mother went to sit in front of pharmacy. At around 1135, pt fell out of chair, sounded/looked like he may have hit his head on blood pressure machine that he was sitting near. We thought he had fainted. Pt woke within 10 or so seconds after fall and was confused. Said his head didn't hurt. His skin did lose it's color and he was looking "white as a sheet". We had pt lie on floor and elevated his feet. After a few minutes he was feeling better and was able to sit in a chair. Pt and his mom left the pharmacy area about 15-20 minutes after pt fainted. Upon looking at video of the event, it appears that before the patient fell out of his chair that his right arm raises up and his elbow is bent in a very stiff way. A split second later his whole body appears to stiffen and bend to the left, then he falls out of the chair and is lying on the floor. When on the floor, his legs appear to be fairly stiff as well. This whole episode seems to last about 10 seconds or less. The video makes it look more like a seizure than a case of syncope.

17-year-old male who presents with 8 days of headache. He received his first dose of the Pfizer vaccine on 4/21. He felt like he had the flu after getting the vaccine and developed right-sided neck pain and a temperature to 100. The patient did endorse being elbowed in the neck playing basketball during this time as well, as he played in a basketball tournament in right after this. He got his Covid vaccine in his right deltoid. He saw his pediatrician on 4/26 and a CT scan of his neck with IV contrast was done and this showed significant diffuse right-sided deep spatial neck edema and right-sided adenopathy. The pediatrician discussed the findings with ENT who recommended augmentin and a medrol dosepak. The patient developed a headache several days after this and went to urgent care for evaluation. There was concern that the augmentin and steroids had caused the headache, so the steroids were stopped and he was switched to keflex on 4/30. He was given phenergan and toradol at Urgent Care and discharged home. His mom notes that several days ago he had fevers of 101-104. He has not had a fever for several days now. His headache continued and he felt unwell at basketball practice so he returned to urgent care on 5/4. A CT scan of his head was done which showed right sigmoid and transverse sinus thrombosis as well as thrombophlebitis of the right IJ. He was sent to ED for further management at that time. In the ED, the patient was hemodynamically stable and well-appearing. The CTs were overread by our radiologists here. The patient had some labs done at the outside urgent care but PT/PTT/INR and a CRP were drawn here, which were unremarkable. A Covid PCR is negative. Neurosurgery, neurology, and hematology were consulted. Neurology recommended heparin and a hypercoagulable workup and hematology agreed with this plan. The patient was admitted to the ICU for neuro checks and monitoring during initiation of heparin.

Intense headaches the day after taking the shot, back pain from the waist up. 2 days later I woke up with chest pain and the lingering headache, my chest feels heavy and maybe shortness of breath. I did a bunch of research however I did not find anything about chest pain related to the second dose of Pfizer. I am not sure if it is some type of tissue or muscle pain or something more serious. When I massage my chest it does not ache like the muscle pain from my shoulder so id assume it has to do with maybe my lungs or heart.

came to see me 3 days after his first Pfizer Covid vaccine and had been having a subjective fever, bad headache and stomach ache since the day the vaccine was administered. He incidentally had some weight loss noted at the visit over the previous 6 months for which I did some lab work. The lab work was normal except for his platelet count which was 111,000. A repeat platelet count done a week later was normal at 273,000. Because of the transient decrease in platelet count and the 3 days of bad headache after the vaccine, I decided to hold off on getting a second Covid vaccine. Additionally and possibly of no significance, his mother apparently had a history of ITP during her childhood.

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

Patient received his first dose of the Pfizer vaccine on 5/7/21. On 5/13/21 he began to feel feverish (unsure Tmax, never took temperature) and was intermittently febrile until hospital admission on 5/20/21. On 5/18/21 he was seen in the ED for fever and tested positive for strep throat and started on amoxicillin. His inflammatory labs were elevated at this time and did not notice improvement on amoxicillin. He returned to the ED on 5/20/21 at which time patient reported headaches on the right side, sharp 7/10 pain which come and go with the fevers as well as fatigue, muscle/body aches, and sweats in addition to persistent fever. He also noticed maculopapular rash on palms and soles and on distal extremities which was not pruritic or painful on day of hospital admission. All infectious workup was negative and patient did not improve on broad spectrum antibiotics. Given his persistent fever, hypotension, and inflammatory labs without other cause, patient was empirically treated for MIS-C and was given IVIG and methylprednisolone as well as being started on prophylactic dose enoxaparin for his elevated D-dimer. Repeat echocardiogram identified a new coronary aneurysm, supporting the diagnosis of MIS-C. Following IVIG and steroids patient remained afebrile and inflammatory markers down trended, however liver enzymes remained elevated at time of discharge. He improved and was discharged to finish steroid course at home with close follow up.

No pulmonary embolus was identified and patient was transferred the patient via ambulance to Hospital to the intensive care unit. He was noted to have an elevated troponin, an elevated BNP and a left ventricular ejection fraction of 35%. He underwent a cardiac MRI on 06/04/2021 documenting delayed enhancement in the inferior and inferolateral walls of the left ventricle consistent with myocarditis. The patient's chest pain was quite severe and was only relieved once he was in the intensive care unit at Hospital. He did well for 2-3 days and did not require inotropes but his troponin vacillated and his ejection fraction remain low. He was given IVIG non 06/05/2021 after his echo showed an ejection fraction between 37 in 45%. He subsequently developed headache emesis and neck pain. On hospital day 5, the father was quite concerned for his son and thought ?he was going to die?. The father shared pictures of the edematous, pale son that he took with his phone.

History of Present Illness 17-year-old male who denies any major medical problems presents to the ER concern for chest pain. The patient states that he stayed up all night and he woke up this morning around 12:30 p.m., around 1 hour prior to arrival and he was having a tightness in his chest. The tightness is constant, seems to go down his left arm. He has never had this happen before. He received his Pfizer vaccination for COVID-19 on Friday of last week and he feels like he has had some aches since that time. He has been taking Motrin for this and this morning he also took Motrin but there is no significant relief. He has no significant shortness of breath, no nausea vomiting, no diaphoresis. I spoke with him privately and he denies any history of cocaine abuse. Per his mother he has healthy, no major medical problems. He has not recently had any other concerns or recent review systems. No history of having blood clots or DVTs. Medical Decision Making: History examination as above. Patient presents our concern for tightness in his chest with some radiation to his left arm over the past 1 hour. His EKG does show J-point elevation but he has no risk factors, he is hemodynamically stable well-appearing on examination. He has no shortness of breath, nausea, diaphoresis. Differential includes myopericarditis, early repolarization. Feel that the likelihood of STEMI, ACS is low. Will obtain a troponin as a part of his workup, chest x-ray for evaluation of cardiac silhouette size, bedside ultrasound. I do not suspect that he has a PE. He has no tachycardia tachypnea hypoxia. No external findings of suggest a DVT on examination. I do not suspect that he has cardiac tamponade, CHF, pulmonary process such as pneumothorax, pneumonia based on his history. Do not suspect a GI etiology. Will monitor closely here in the ER and re-evaluate. Time 2:30 p.m.. The patient's troponin is elevated at 7. I consult with Cardiology and I spoke with Dr- we reviewed the patient's EKG, his presentation, his history. He feels this is secondary to myocarditis from likely the COVID-19 vaccination. I have added a viral PCR as well as a part of his workup. He does not recommend activation the cath lab, he does not feel this is a STEMI. I do agree based on the history and the patient's appears this time. He recommended a formal echocardiogram as well. -I spoke with the ultrasound technician at bedside and there is no evidence of wall motion abnormality. This is consistent with my examination. -given the patient's elevated troponin we do not have capabilities of caring for him here. Not have Pediatric Cardiology, we do not have a PICU if the patient's condition were to worsen. There for the patient requires transfer to tertiary center. -will consult with another hospital for transfer. Time 3:22 p.m.. I spoke with Dr, he accepts for transfer. No recommendations for medications at this time. The patient is chest pain-free, hemodynamically stable. Spoke with the ultrasound technician there is no evidence of cardiac wall abnormality, pending official interpretation with our cardiologist. -asked for emergent transfer because I do not want the pain to be waiting here in the ER with possible worsening condition, worsening troponin elevation without cardiology consultation at a pediatric specific hospital. I do not want him to have the chance of deteriorating at this facility and therefore I do feel that he warrants emergent transfer as opposed to routine where he could wait here in the ER for hours. I do feel that benefits outweigh the risk and I spoke with the patient and his family about this and they agree. Critical Care: 55 minutes. Emergent evaluation on presentation given his EKG showing STEMI per computer interpretation. Time spent for multiple re-evaluations, discussion with Cardiology and outside hospital consultants, time spent with documentation. Time spent with family. Complex medical decision making. Serious life threatening disease process. Potential for death and increased morbidity. Exclusive of procedure time.

He reportedly felt dizzy Monday evening as well. The pain was absent on Tuesday, but he woke up this morning again with the same chest pain and shortness of breath, prompting him to seek medical attention. In the outside ED, he had one NBNB emesis that was not preceded by nausea. En route from Hospital to Hospital he complained of chest pain 7/10 for which he was placed on 2L O2 which reduced the pain to 4/10. During his admission his troponin levels initially up trended and peaked at 5.67 before beginning to downtrend. He was diagnosed with myopericarditis and started on ibuprofen three times a day around the clock. He was discharged home on 7/8 with specific return precautions, follow-up appointment with cardiology, and strict instructions to avoid exercising and strenuous exercising until cleared by cardiology.

So right after getting the shot, within an hour, he complained of a pain in his back and I thought it was left over from the arm pain from the shot. But then he complained of stomach ache as well. We went to the hospital in June and they have done so many tests on him though and he was referred to a GI DR as well. He gets a stomach ache after having full meals, like anything normal size he used to eat, he gets nausea. He passes stool that is yellow in color. The DRs are still working on him currently though. He has some sort of bug or something. We have tried Pepto bismol and other over the counter medications but they have not helped.

Question is whether he should get the second shot or not. Is 6 to potentially 8 days of side effects a concern? Also, parent has been curious as to whether son was a long hauler from covid for brain fog but son thinks it could be burnout from school. Strange that had such a long lasting reaction compared to to others his gneral age, including those who had covid after he had it so longer ago.

18M with no PMH s/p pfizer vaccination dose 2 on 5/4/21 who presented with chest pain. He initially had chest pain the day prior to admission with pain in his back and down his left arm. This improved with Tylenol and resolved prior to bed. On the morning of 5/6 the chest pain returned and was so severe it woke him from sleep. He was difficult for him to characterize, but he said it was all over his chest, sometimes sharp and pressure-like, most severe in mid substernal region and was so substantial that he had difficulty speaking properly. He feels that the pain is most severe when lying flat and is best managed when he is resting at a 45 degree angle. Patient was at ED he was found to have an initial ECG with ST depressions in aVR and elevations in II, aVF, and V2 through V6 raising suspicion for pericarditis/myocarditis. Initial troponin was elevated at 4.35 as well. Cardiology Dr. was contacted by ED physician, case discussed, and EKGs reviewed and felt this was more likely pericarditis, but not STEMI. Of note, he reports a family history significant for his mother having a?hole in her heart.?He was given Toradol with improvement in his pain and upon arrival to hospital his chest pain was markedly improved. He was noted to have troponins peaking at 39.415 that down trended and an elevated CRP of 4.8 on admission. D-dimer was 0.26. Covid PCR was negative. He was evaluated by cardiology again here who upon review of his ECG and cardiac enzymes as well as presentation was consistent with pericarditis. Echocardiogram showed normal LV systolic function with trace posterior pericardial effusion and telemetry was monitored without any arrhythmias. He was started on low-dose beta-blockers, aspirin 650 mg 3 times a day, and colchicine 0.6 mg every 12 hours for 2 doses followed by 0.6 mg daily. He is planned to continue this for approximately 3 months and will need to follow-up with cardiology in 1 to 2 weeks for repeat monitoring and management with plan to taper off aspirin once his CRP normalizes. Later that night, he even had a similar episode of sudden onset chest pain for which she received IV Toradol with minimal relief and oral Tylenol with relief of symptoms after that. No telemetry abnormalities were recorded at that time. ECG the following day showed improving ST changes and troponin of 26.328 with CRP 4.2. He had no further symptoms for over 24 hours and is responding well to treatment. He is advised to take Tylenol as needed in addition to the above-mentioned medicines should he have any recurrent chest pain.

The vertigo was so bad the caller's son had to lay down on the stretcher as the vaccination site. Even sitting up, the caller's son's world was spinning. The caller's son had to lay down. It was very hot, no fever, but radiating heat: The caller's son was very hot, no fever, but radiating heat. Part of that was the vaccination centre was not air conditioned and the caller's son was already a little uncomfortably warm when he went in. Dry ice packs were placed on the caller's son's head, went through three dry ice packs melting on the caller's son. The dry ice packs were on the caller's son's forehead and back of his neck and the injection site. The caller was trying to give her son coolness the best she could. He stayed about 30 minutes at the vaccination site and nothing improved or got worse. He was still very heavily dizzy or whatever and got in the wheelchair and got home.

Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine EUA The vaccine was administered to the writer at 0800 on 1/5/2021. No immediate reactions were noticed for the 30 minutes observation period immediately after. The writer's muscle that received the vaccine began to become increasingly sore throughout the day; however, that was similar to the first dose of the same vaccine a few weeks prior. The pain was described as constant (2/10) but aggravated with motion. The pain did interfere with the writer's normal range of motion (specifically raising the writer's arm above shoulder height). From 0800-2200 on 1/5/2021 no noticeable symptoms except for the injection site pain occurred. At 2200, the writer rapidly developed chills, body aches, a headache, fatigue, and a fever of 100.8. These symptoms were left untreated and continued through the night (the symptoms did not interfere with sleep). The writer woke up at 1300 on 1/6/2021; all previous symptoms had resolved by this time except for the injection site pain. By 1400 on 1/6/2021, the writer noticed pain near the right axillary lymph nodes. The pain can be described as moderate (1/10) and generally occurred only with motion. The writer was unable to palpate any swelling in the area. Around 1800 on 1/6/2021, the writer noticed it felt weird to swallow. Specifically, it felt as if there was a slight internal swelling 1-inch subhyoidally and 1-2 inches laterally within the right side of his neck when he swallowed. The swelling was not palpable from the skin's surface. The writer did not seek medical attention as breathing/eating/drinking were not made more difficult but monitored this closely. The swelling in the neck resolved by 2000 on 1/6/2021. The lymph node pain in the right arm resolved over the course of a few days and was no longer present by 1/9/2021 at 1300.

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

After the vaccination, there was no chair in pharmacy so that he could sit and wait the 15 minutes inside the place, so we had to go to the car to wait the 15 minutes, that was when the person began to feel very cold and lost consciousness for about 2 minutes. His head fell and also his upper limbs stiffened with twisted hands as if it were a convulsion, as if it were a tonic phase. His skin turned white and he didn't react. I put alcohol gel all over his face and body, then he began to react, little by little his body color returned but he does not remember anything that happened in those minutes.

ED Visit 3/11/21 History of Present Illness 21 year old man pmhx of autism, recurrent abscesses, presents with complaint of L axilla swelling and drainage. Pt received COVID vaccine in L arm on 3/1. Pt did well until 3/5 when he started to complain of pain in the L armpit. Mother examined the area and did not see anything concerning. The pain continued through the weekend, no fevers. Pt felt warm on Monday, no temperature taken. Mother then noted a few "bump" near the L armpit. The bumps continued to swell and be painful on Tuesday, went to pediatrician and was prescribed Keflex. Pt has been taking Keflex but continues to spike fevers, Tmax 102F on Wednesday. Pt had fevers yesterday and today of "about 100." Pt took a nap today, and woke up with the area draining. Mother states that the drainage was smelly pus. Called PCP who recommended evaluation. ED course: Patient observed in the emergency department of antipyretics and did not have any further fever. I will switch his treatment to clindamycin and provide topical bacitracin and provide strict criteria to come back if pt became febrile instructions provided to mom. Patient safe for discharge to home. Discharged in improved condition. Written instructions reviewed with family. 3/18/2021 Discharge Summary History of Present Illness 21yo man with h/o autism and multiple soft tissue infections including cellulitis and pilonidal cyst who presented to the ED 3/13/2021 after axillary drainage and fever. He had been treated outpatient with keflex, but continued to have fevers at home. Re-evaluated at ED and placed on clindamycin. Cultures from outpatient showing skin flora. Mother has been doing several dressings of drainage at home and ongoing fevers up to 102 so was brought to the ED for evaluation. No cough, rhinorrhea, diarrhea, recent travel, known sick contacts. Summary of hospitalization: He re-presented to ED on 3/13/2021 and was started on vanc/cefepime/flagyl. A CT scan with contrast done to determine extension of abscess, which was fortunately limited to the subcutaneous plane (no infiltration near bone or into muscle fascia). In the ED, patient's creatinine was 1.5. Patient received IVF and his creatinine downtrended to 0.75 on 3/18/21. The surgical course was uneventful. Successful debridement of the left axillary abscess was performed on 03/4/21. Wound cultures grew Actinomyces Europaeus and S. Epidermidis and Infectious Disease was consulted. Their antibiotic recommendations to discontinue the cefepime/flagyl and start vanc/CTX were followed. Sensitivity analyses showed S. Epidermidis was sensitive to linezolid, tetracyclin, tigecyclin, bactruim and vancomycin. The Actinomyces Europaeus sensitivities have not yet resulted at time of discharge. Per ID recommendations, the vanc and CTX were discontinued and oral doxycycline was started, which should be continued for 6 months. It could be considered to switch to PO amoxicillin after 2 weeks and finish the 6 month course with amoxicillin. This will be discussed during outpatient follow-up. Per ID recommendations, the following labs should be checked 2 weeks after discharge (on 3/29/21) and could be spaced out to every 4 weeks thereafter if normal: CBC with differential, CRP, ESR, BUN, creatinine, AST, ALT. The patient is scheduled to see (ID) on 5/5/21. Dermatology was consulted per ID recs for evaluation of spots on the chest and back. Per dermatology these spots are keloid, not suspicious for hidradenitis suppurative, there is no need for biopsy. For pilonidal cyst spot dermatology recommends rec hibicleans cream. Immunology was consulted for recurring abscesses and recommended the following tests, which were ordered, in addition to outpatient followup: IgG, IgA, IgM, IgE, specific Ab titers: for strep pneumo IgG (23 serotypes) and tetanus IgG, lymphocyte subsets, T cell memory panel, B cell memory panel, neutrophil DHR, CH50. A wound VAC was placed on the left axillary wound bed on 03/15/21 and exchanged on 3/17/21. Patient tolerated the wound vac changes well with 5mg of oxycodone taken 1 hour prior to the vac change. On 03/18/21 patient was discharged with a home wound vac and VNA. At the time of discharged patient was afebrile, his pain was well controlled, his oxygen saturations were >94% on room air, he was tolerating a regular diet and voiding/stooling without issues.

No joint pain in right arm Jan 27: pain in left arm similar in severity, slight increase in right arm pain, would rate 2-3 in right arm, 3-4 in left arm, 3-4 in legs. Muscle weakness in legs (legs shaking when walking down stairs for example) Jan 28 (Thurs):Symptoms started fading. Arm pain lowered in severity in both arms, as did leg pain. By Saturday all that remained was mild leg pain (1-2 in severity)Since then, leg pain has persisted. Week of Feb 14, leg pain increased in severity back to a 3-4. Visited the doctor on the 17th and had blood-work done on the 23rd after severity didn't decrease. Blood-work was normal other than slightly elevated lymphocyte % (50.8%)Visited a specialty medicine doctor on 2/25 and had x-rays done of legs. Results normal. Thought to have developed Achilles tendinitis. Possibly attributed to inflammation in legs, doctor wasn't sure. Rough quote "could it be from the vaccine, possibly, we just don't know." Have been doing stretches since which has helped the leg pain. Starting on March 12, I began to have pain in my left arm again, and ended up getting vertigo that evening. The arm pain persisted on and off from then on out, as well as occasional dizziness, which I treated with Dramamine. I did get an appointment scheduled with a neurologist in May that I still have. On March 25, I began to feel unwell, with a fever, dizziness, and a headache. That worsened into the evening, and I woke up at around 3 am with a high fever, that ended up going to about 103 F, and began vomiting around 4:30am on Friday, which persisted into the evening. On Saturday evening I began to feel better. With that recovery, the constant leg pain and frequent arm pain seemed to be gone, and has yet to return to the degree that it had been prior to that bout of sickness. I do still occasionally get arm or leg pain, but it's minor and only lasts about 20-30 minutes at a time.

started with soreness/stiffness in injection site, which I expected as it was how I reacted with the first shot. however, I then started experiencing mild dizziness/visual impairment (feeling like my vision was shifting or "glitching") that started around two hours after the shot, slow onset of sore/achy back muscles that hit peak pain at around 3am, and intense chills/shivers that started around 11pm, getting progressively worse as the night went on. Attempted to stop the chills by wrapping in several blankets, but only continued to feel colder and colder. Despite the chills starting around 11pm, fever did not present itself until around 1am, hitting 99.8°F by 1:30am. It was around this time that I took an ibuprofen and acetaminophen, which did not kick in until around 2:30am. Once the chills stopped, my hands and feet only got hotter, keeping me awake for an additional 2 1/2 hours.

Pericarditis diagnosis: This is a 21 year old male who presented to the emergency department on 4/27/21 with a two-day history of chest pain. He was seen in a emergency department on 4/26 and reported a normal EKG, blood work, and x-ray. He was discharged home. His was worsened so he reported to an urgent care in . That team had a concern for pericarditis, so referred the patient to the emergency room. He had a reproducible pain over the costal margin but did describe a positional component. Provider felt they still had to consider pericarditis as well as costochondritis. The suspicion for pulmonary embolism or acute coronary syndrome or very low. The suspicion also for myocarditis was low. His EKG did show some J-point elevation versus ST elevation in the anterior and lateral leads. There was no evidence of reciprocal depression. His troponin test was normal. His CBC and metabolic panel were normal. He had had CRP which was mildly elevated at 4.6. A bedside point-of-care ultrasound showed no evidence of a pericardial effusion. Provider felt it was reasonable to treat him for pericarditis although his EKG is not classic for this. It was recommended he use his scheduled ibuprofen 600 mg 3 times a day. He was also given a 1 month course of daily colchicine 0.6 mg. It was recommend he follow closely with his PCP to see if he needs to have this colchicine course extended. He will follow-up with his primary doctor in 1 week for repeat check.

Got woken up by intense leg pain around 6:00am the day following vaccination. I took 1000mg methocarbamol, 400mg ibuprofen (split between 2 pills each containing 500mg methocarbamol and 200mg ibuprofen), and 1000mg acetaminophen before a hot bath which relieved pain enough to get back to sleep around 7am. I woke up again around 11am with similar extreme pain, took another set of 1000mg methocarbamol, 400mg ibuprofen , and 1000mg acetaminophen along with 5mg of hydrocodone left over from recent dental work. Pain subsided until approximately 4:00pm when legs started to hurt again before getting to severe levels around 5pm (and so did the back of my neck which was the first neck pain experienced) so I took another set of 1000mg methocarbamol, 400mg ibuprofen , and 1000mg acetaminophen along with 5mg of hydrocodone (which has helped ease discomfort again). Leg pain is not sharp but very persistent and painful and is located behind both knees. Neck pain was sharp and located directly at the back. I have had no arm pain or injection site swelling or pain, just leg pain and neck. I did not experience any side-effects after my first dose, not even injection site pain.

About 6 hours post injection, with only a small amount of muscle soreness in the injected arm, I was suddenly very very dizzy. I ran from my living room to my bedroom and got under the sheets, I was very very cold. My whole body was twitching violently, and I had extreme muscle pain. Joints popped like knuckles cracking that I wouldn't normally be able to pop. This lasted for about 10 minutes very violently and then calmed down over another 10, and I just felt very very feverish. I felt numb all over but I was shivering a little. Moving was very hard and my whole back was very sore, with the injection arm in a little extra pain. Fell asleep until about 7:30 am, woke up still a little feverish. I have had waves of extreme dizziness and muscle aches continuing even to today a couple days later. I am also experiencing a rather persistent headache in the very center of my head, making it hard to think. I lose track of my thoughts and it feels like I can't focus, this seems to be improving gradually over time. treatment only included extra fluid intake and over the counter pain killers

At around 10:30 pm on 29Apr2021 he went to rub, his stomach just above his belly button and it hurt. He said that he read on line that that area is called the pancreas or liver, it has a lot of names for that area when looking online. He stated it's the left upper abdomen area he felt pain when he pressed on it. It radiated really fast across his abdomen while he was on the phone with mother. The more he pressed the more the pain got sharper, and it radiated right across the abdomen, mainly above belly button not too much in lower abdomen, not much in upper abdomen. It was very sensitive. He didn't have to press hard to trigger the pain. It was almost like the area was inflamed. It happened really fast and that it was his upper stomach not so much the lower part of his abdomen. He felt dizziness and nauseous and like a silly boy he tried to run to the bathroom. He stated that he fell and fainted. His butt was still a little sore from falling. He said when he woke up, he was sweating like he had been out side all day. He did not recall sweating any time he fainted in the past. The side effects were gone after about ten minutes. He was really light headed and had the crazy sharp pain in abdomen for about ten minutes and then it was gone. He had never had that kind of pain. He was laying on the floor for a couple minutes. He went to get his phone, and then sat back down and was sweating. He still had pain at that time but it only lasted about 10 minutes at most. He was still a little bit sore in some joints which was not unexpected. He confirmed that he had a little bit of sweating, and he fainted a little bit. Since the episode he hasn't felt any symptoms like that before, he has not had any pain like gastritis but he has had some random gastrointestinal things before. It's also reported nausea on 29Apr2021. No required to emergency room and physician office. He was on the verge of going to the ER while the pain was there. He was going to go until it stopped and to get checked out. No relevant test. The outcome of the events sore joints, dizziness and butt sore was unknown; for other events was resolved on 29Apr2021.

My first dose of the pfizer vaccine was relatively asymptomatic. Received at local hospital. Sore arm that lasted a few hours, nothing too concerning. This adverse event describes my second dose however, received Jan 23, 2020, approximately 3 weeks after the first. Again, this was received at local hospital. The next day, I felt the expected side effects of terrible chills, whole-body myalgia, and a slight fever. Again, I was not too worried as this was expected. I could not sleep that night, but otherwise, I felt significantly better in the morning. Unfortunately, on Jan 25, 2 days after the second dose, I began to feel a strange tingling sensation in my forearms, and a pain in my lower back. This paresthesia felt as if the insides of my arms were vibrating, and rather than a "pins and needles" sensation, I felt electric shocks through my forearms and extremely discomforting tingles. I could not bend forward without terrible shocks through my arms, and my back pain can only be described as aching. I immediately scheduled an appointment with my doctor for Monday afternoon, That entire Sunday, it felt as if the tingling sensation, rated at 7/10 discomfort, grew to 10/10. I physically was wincing and turning, unable to find any position where my arms were not experiencing electric vibrations. My back pain, which was tender to touch, and if I pressed hard enough on it or laid on my back, caused the same electric sensation not just in the forearms but the entirety of my upper torso and my arm. Taking deep breaths was painful, as it elicited the same discomforting paresthesia. At the time, I was one of the first groups taking the pfizer shots, and it was still unclear if taking NSAIDs was a good idea to alleviate pains and the suppress the immune response. I agonized that entire Sunday and through Monday morning, the shocking expanding from just the forearms to the shoulders around the deltoid, and the back pain soon covered my entire upper torso. For whatever reason, waist-down I was completely fine. Even bending forward only elicited the pain upwards, nothing ever went down my legs. I had slight neck stiffness, a throbbing headache, intense back aches, bilateral upper extremity paresthesia, and pain on deep inspiration at the height of my pain on Monday morning. By this point, the pain had kept me awake for almost 30 hours. When I finally could see my doctor via telehealth appointment, he prescribed me 800 mg ibuprofen to be taken every 6-8 hours I believe. After taking the ibuprofen, the pain lessened significantly, going from 10/10 to 2/10. I was finally able to go to sleep sitting up straight on a sofa chair. The paresthesia was gone, the pain on deep inspiration was gone, but the tenderness and dull ache in the lower back seemed to stay even on the ibuprofen. I noticed that if I laid down on my back to try and sleep, even with the medicine in full effect, the electric shooting and paresthesia would immediately return. If I quickly removed pressure from that area, it went away. The ibuprofen's effect lasted only about 5 hours. I would take another as it slowly crawled back up to 4/10 pain or if the paresthesia was returning. Over the course of an entire week, I constantly needed to be on ibuprofen. By Friday, so almost 6 days after the shot, the paresthesia and back pain could be completely suppressed by the ibuprofen and I was able to lay on my back with no problems. Without medicine, I was sitting at a dull 3-10 back pain, but the paresthesia was gone. The back pain finally vanished on Sunday, 8 days after the shot, and I no longer needed ibuprofen. No fevers, chills, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, radiation of electrical pain down the leg, vision change, or loss of bowel/urinary control throughout the course of these symptoms. My experience reported to my primary care doctor, via our health messages. I did not return any contact to hospital or my vaccination site.

Woke up approximately 14 hours after receiving dose #2 with body fatigue. My large joints (e.g., hips, knees, elbows, shoulders) started to develops aches/discomfort. A hot shower helped relieve the initial discomfort, and I took 1g of APAP ~45 minutes after waking up. I then reported to work, which is an ambulatory care clinic that is working a drive-up clinic. As such, I had to work outside in ~20F weather. I had 4 layers on my upper body and 2 layers on lower body with wool socks. The cold did not bother me for the first two hours as I was able to return to a warm area between patients; however, as work became busy, I spent more time outside. The aches/discomfort in my joints progressively worsened as well as the general bodily fatigue. I took another 500mg of APAP, but it did not help much more. Eventually, the cold and body fatigue made breathing uncomfortable, and my breathing became slightly labored. Returning to the warm environment helped the symptoms not get worse, but focusing on tasks became slightly difficult. I returned home at approximately 1630, took another 1g of APAP, and proceeded to sleep from ~1730 until 0530 the next morning. I woke up feeling much better.

24-year-old male with no prior medical problems presents for evaluation of chest pain. Patient complains of midsternal chest pain that started approximately an hour ago. He states that it woke him up from sleep. Pain is sharp without any radiation or other associated symptoms including diaphoresis presyncopal symptoms or palpitations. He denies any significant air hunger or shortness of breath. He otherwise had been feeling better after what he tall was post COVID vaccine symptoms. Patient received a 2nd dose of pfizer vaccine 3 days ago. He states that within 24 hours he had symptoms of myalgia fever and feeling unwell. That has been resolving patient has been feeling better until the chest pain today. Patient otherwise denies any other medical problems in. He denies any history of drug use including any recent cocaine or other drug abuse. Elevated cardiac enzymes and chest discomfort are likely secondary to myocarditis and secondary to vaccination/ inflammatory reaction. Although there is low likelihood of obstructive coronary artery disease as well. I recommended cardiac catheterization for clarification. He does not want to have the procedure done, understands the risk of undiagnosed coronary artery disease and risk of MI. He would like to be discharged home. I reviewed the images of echocardiogram and it seems that he has a small area of hypokinesis in infero basal segment. Recommended to take aspirin and be seen in Cardiology office in 2 weeks. Advised to abstain from exercise and significant physical activity till that time and return to the hospital if any symptoms. Subjective: I saw patient in consultation for evaluation of chest pain and elevated cardiac enzymes. Patient is a 24-year-old healthy male who had COVID-19 vaccination with his second Pfizer shot 4/14/21. He developed fever, chills, nausea and vomiting 1 day after vaccination. He did not have any reaction to the 1st dose. He presented to the hospital with substernal chest discomfort which woke him up from sleep, radiated to throat and had a throbbing feeling. This lasted for 1 to 2 hours and subsided completely in the hospital. He smokes 5 cigarettes a day, is physically very active and exercises regularly. He is not on any medication at home.

MYOCARDITIS. I experienced extreme chest pain, tightness, shortness of breath, painful heart beats, I could feel each beat. I hunched over in my bed groom grabbing my abdomen and fell onto my bed and almost passed out from whack I?d assume is lack of oxygen. I could barely breathe for about five minutes and felt relatively severe pain particularly in the right side of my chest. I could feel every muscle, tendon, and artery inflamed, enlarged, and hurting. My chest felt like it filled up with a balloon. Heart rate went up too. I have NEVER EVER felt ANYTHING like this in my LIFE. Not even close. It was a brand new sensation to me first time I?ve ever felt anything like this at all, and very intense and frustrating. Keeping in mind I am in perfect health. I am a body builder with a perfect physique. I work at a high end restaurant and have an extremely good diet. I have a normal sleep and sexual routine, I don?t use any medications whatsoever even Tylenol or ibuprofen. I have no pre existing conditions. I have no history of heart or cardio problems. My family has a history of low blood pressure. I have next to no stress or anxiety in my life. I am 24 years old I work out and run miles, five to six days a week. I don?t use nicotine, tobacco, and I haven?t had a drink of alcohol in ten years (14yrs old). I smoke marijuana on a daily basis. After about ten minutes the incident went down and I was able to breathe a little better but still had pain and tightness in my chest. I have had shortness of breath ever since. This is being written the day after the event about 26 hours later. I ran a mile last night and went to the gym it seemed to help both my breathing and the pain and tightness but it has not fully gone away. I feel my heart straining somehow as I am typing this. One thing to note is I did not want to get vaccinated but was pressured to do so, and before getting it I was very nervous and honestly upset. The woman administering it was not helpful at all and actually mocked my unsureness and was very rude and unprofessional. She didn?t answer any technical questions I had. During my interaction with her between my nerves and her behavior I?m absolutely certain my heart rate was elevated at the time of getting the shot. I have only had one shot. The episode of myocarditis occurred two weeks after my first shot. Two days after my scheduled second shot, which I missed because of work and was going to reschedule before this occurred. I am not going to be getting the second shot. Will be following up with my primary care doctor as soon as possible. Haven?t had time.

Since my second shot of the vaccine, I have been experiencing chest pain. My chest feels tight and hurts a little bit. Any psychical exertion causes the tightness and pain to increase a lot, like i'm being stabbed by a knife. If I go on a walk, it gets really bad and I start to feel it in my throat and back. It subsides if I lay down or sit still for a while. It seems to be caused by movement and exertion. Also, my left toe is now partially numb. It is not fully numb, but feels like pins and needles when I touch it. This has been happening since I got the second shot I think.

Right shoulder pain; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 25-year-old male patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (Pfizer-BIONTECH Covid-19 Vaccine; Lot number: EJ1685), via an unspecified route of administration in the left deltoid on 22Dec2020 at a single dose as preventative and to protect the people around him. The patient had no relevant medical history and no concomitant medications. The patient stated that ever since he got the vaccine, he has had shoulder pain (onset date was on 24Dec2020). He was unsure if it was joint or muscular. When he raises it to a certain level, there was intense pain. This was only his right shoulder, he got the vaccine on his left side. The pain had stayed the same. It goes away every so often and then it comes back, that was with him helping it. He had used heat, taking Advil, and sometimes icing it. It had stayed the same and it has not gone away and it has not improved. The patient thinks his dose was 3mL, if he can recall. He stated that he did have one question. He was about to resume classes at his college and they were requesting that he took a tetanus shot and get a TB skin test. He was trying to figure out if that was okay. He remembers reading something that he should not get another vaccine at this time. If that was true, the patient was inquiring what was the time span. Outcome of the event was not recovered/not resolved.

On December 16th, I received my 1st dose of the COVID-19 Pfizer vaccine at 11:49am. I was off of work for the remainder of the day and driving to an appointment at a different town. Between towns, during the drive fatigue settled in and I started to get drowsy. I switched seats and fell asleep for some time in the vehicle. I had fatigue for about 3-4 weeks following the 1st dose. On December 23rd, my symptoms started to get worse. Headaches increased, muscle pain/aches, chills, fatigue and this was the first day I had a temp of 100.4. I took some Tylenol and it made it bearable for me to continue to work throughout the day. From 12/20-26/2020, I kept feeling like I had a cold or the flu. Through the Holiday, I remained in bed and didn't have energy to do anything. I still had all the symptoms and decided on December 28th to call into work and get seen for a Telehealth. Some lab work were done and test results came back. I'm still working with my provider on figuring out what's going on with me.

I, the patient am reporting this after speaking with my neurologist today, after receiving the first dose of the covid vaccine I starting experiencing excruciating migraines, migraines that felt like when I was NOT treated for my chronic migraines. Prior to the vaccine I had been stable on topiramate and was only experiencing about 1-2 migraines a month and was fine with sumatriptan. However, after the first dose of the vaccine I experienced muscle pain across my arms/shoulder/shoulder blades/neck that attributed to my head hurting. This pain has not subsided since the second dose but has decreased in its severity. Basically, the pain is still there, but it is not as excruciating. I am able to still go about my day, and I no longer have the arm/shoulder pain, but the migraines have not gone away. After speaking to my neurologist, he feels that the vaccine most likely triggered the muscle pain as that is a very common reaction which spiked the migraines to resurface, which is why I wanted to report this AE, especially because it has caused my prophylactic treatment (topiramate) and acute treatment (sumatriptan) to BOTH fail and I am needing to have my medications readjusted in order to deal with these migraines that have not subsided over the 3 weeks since the first vaccine. My neurologist feels that these migraines MAY subside, but he cannot rule out that they may never and I may need new/stronger therapy for them.

Around 6 pm the same day of first pfizer vaccine (3/18/21), i woke up from a nap and my back hurt so bad that i couldn't leave the bed without falling out. My parents came and helped me out and gave me painkillers but really nothing helped. Next day, it started down my right arm (the arm NOT injected with the shot) and it started to hurt in my muscles everywhere and hasn't stopped to this day (3/25/21). Numbness and pins and needles feeling have occurred in my pinky and ring finger of right arm. Pain has now started in my knees as well after a few days from the shot. No pain killers work and I'm unable to write or type properly, or even work at my job frankly. I can't hold an object without it falling out of my hand, and when i am able to hold something, after about 2 seconds pain fills my arm. Nothing helps the pain. I saw my primary care physician on 3/25/21 and the PA said there wasn't anything to do for the intense pain i was having except take tylenol arthritis, melatonin (to help me sleep through the pain), exercise (even though it may cause me even worse pain), and a stress ball for my arm. I don't know what else to do with this pain and this was only the first round of shots.

I had chest pains that felt like tightness of my chest. Friends and family said it sounded like a heart attack (despite being only 25 years old). It hurt to sit up or maneuver my chest/rib cage in any manner, for example, a sit up caused extreme pain. The pain was consistent throughout the day. After it began to dissipate, it was only reproducible when my chest/rib cage was moved or had pressure put onto it. Went to the doctor, diagnosed me with costochondritis. Received an anti-inflammatory shot. Reduced the pain. From initial pain to full recovery was about 3 days (if memory serves correctly, VSafe should have the correct dates as I responded accurately there). A slight discomfort in my chest did occur after my second shot, but nowhere near the same amount of discomfort.

9 hours after the shot I started to feel really groggy and sore with my left arm hurting. 12 hours in I started to feel like I had a fever so i checked it and it was 102 degree F, I was also unable to pick my left arm up due to the pain and my whole body hurt a lot. 13 hours in at about 10 pm that night I started full-body shaking violently and needed help from my parents into my room because I could not walk because my legs were wobbling so much. I felt lightheaded and the shaking continued for about 20 minutes. During this time I checked my temp again and it was 105 degrees F. Once the shaking stopped the fever and intense pain continued until 2 am when it dropped down to 102 degrees F and I was able to fall asleep. The next morning I woke at 8am with a temp of 100 degree F with the same all-over-body pain that lasted all day but the fever dropped until that night. That night it came back at 100 degrees F. This cycle lasted from when I got my shot on the 1st until 4th when the fever stopped. The pain has subsided around the 6th. But I am currently still having pain in my left shoulder where I got my shot today on the 8th.
