So, she was asking if the patient should have another shot since he took ibuprofen before his vaccine. It was a very bad advice because the patient's wife just learnt she shouldn't have. The patient's wife wanted him to have a little reaction as she thinks the vaccine is not going to be effective; asked if the patient should take an additional shot. The patient is scheduled for the second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine on 08Feb2021. The action taken in response to the events for BNT162B2 was not applicable; and for ibuprofen was post-therapy.

Following Dose 1, Right Arm became sore at injection site for 4 days, at which time Right armpit became very tender touch and was swollen about size of silver dollar, approx. 1/2 inch thick. Soreness at injection site subsided over the next 17 days, but tenderness in armpit only diminished slightly. Following Dose 2, Right Arm was once again sore at injection site for about 4 days, but tenderness to the right armpit became more pronounced, with swelling increasing to the size of a hockey puck. Size of swelling was easily visible to the eye. Armpit became more tender to the touch, and has diminished only slightly in size,, as of this reporting. Mass remains soft to the feel, but easily defined in size and location. I have taken OTC pain killers to help with the discomfort. Will continue to monitor its progress, unless notified otherwise. Do not anticipate seeing my physician at this point. Have consulted the Web, and have noted that this is a lesser side effect of this vaccine, if swelling remains localized to the injection site. Thought I should report this side effect only because of the size of the swelling that occured.

Almost immediately felt swelling at the injection site, which I felt as being normal. Next day when I woke up felt a slight headache , abnormal vision issues that included sparkles, blurred vision and a general tiredness. Did not feel refreshed as I normally do when I wake up in the morning. As the day went on sparkles and vision issues remained and headache got worse. Went to bed earlier than normal and next day when woke up the symptoms got worse, I felt like I had a migraine. Vision issues persisted. Laid down around 11AM and took a nap and when I woke up I noticed a blotch in my left eye reminiscent of the shape of a fish (looked like a shark) and it had different colors. Bright yellow and black almost kind of an iridescent green and orange. The shape was still just the colors were different. I panicked and called the optometrist and explained what happened. They wanted to see me right away. I was able to be seen in the afternoon. They looked at it, did two tests and came with the diagnosis of a branch retinal artery occlusion. I visited my neuro- ophthalmologist on 01/28 and he confirmed the diagnosis had previously given. He then ordered fedrate and a couple of other tests. They also did a visual acuity in the left eye (20/30) and color vision (8/8 normal) and color plates and intraocular pressure (16 OS)

Awakening on Saturday, March 13, I saw blood on my pillow and a pee spot on the bed (my first time for either). I could barely get out of bed (an awkward rollover did it). My tongue was numb (still is) and raw from the presumed chewing on it. Walking was slow and painful as all muscles hurt. If I sneezed or coughed, my back would hurt. Those last problems are still true. I periodically cough up phlegm and lacking a good place to spit it out, I just swallow it. I have for the first time in my life been using a walker for stability. Right arm is almost useless due to pain.

A 77-year-old male patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE; lot number: EN6202 and expiry date: unknown), via an unspecified route of administration on 26Feb2021 16:00 at a single dose for covid-19 immunization. Medical history included asthma and stage 4 kidney disease. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. On 27Feb2021 (Saturday), patient was not feeling well and on 28Feb2021, he had diarrhea, chills, shaking all over, severe headache and started throwing up. Reporter stated patient had all the symptoms of the reactions and then "you go again to the serious, more dangerous symptoms, he has all of them". Throwing up, fever, chills, diarrhea and then he get real hot and then he started sweating and it was another day on 01Mar2021. On Monday (01Mar2021), reporter called to take patient to the hospital with high fever. The ambulance put him on IV and oxygen right away. They gave him fluids and were monitoring everything because he was dehydrated and then he stayed in the hospital for some time. He had x-rays, they monitored his blood pressure and heart rate, and the doctor was concerned about his heart rate and blood pressure. Doctor decided to check his urine and he did and he had a UTI on 01Mar2021, and so he gave him antibiotics for that (treatment unspecified). Patient seemed to be better after having the fluids and everything so they let him come home. During the night on 01Mar2021, he had another attack and it was the same thing that he had before. The shaking and the chills the fever and throwing up and the doctor said that it was a reaction from having the vaccination and reporter just wanted to report that he did and reported actually thought he was going to die. Reporter tried to call again the ambulance since she thought that he was not going to make it. The doctor put on the report and he did not put on there that he was in there because of suspected of (incomplete sentence) and then told the reporter himself that he had a reaction from the vaccine. The report stated that patient was in for a UT, but the reporter stated that, once does not call an ambulance for a UTI and she (reporter), have UTI's all the time. After the reporter got the patient home, he was even much worse. Patient could not breathe and he was struggling to breathe on 01Mar2021. He was shivering, shaking, having diarrhea, throwing up, soaking wet, and she had to change his clothes twice, and his fever was 103.1 F around 2:00 or 3:00 in the morning of 02Mar2021. The pharmacist gave medicine for vomiting. Reporter called the hospital and the nurses were busy and they could not take it so 24 hour nurse called. She was finally able to get him comfortable enough that she didn't have to call again. She thought she was going lose him. She said she felt twice he was going to die, when she called. At the hospital they told him he was having a severe reaction to the vaccine but also had a UTI and they gave him antibiotics. Patient contacted her nephew who is a medic in the military and RN and he said patient has Covid and thinks reporter has Covid too because the virus was in the vaccine. The nephew explained that patient just could not fight it off and said the vaccine acts like that. It made sense because it is inhibit in it then your body will learn to fight it off, like if you come in contact with it and that makes sense but the woman never explained. The nephew further stated to reported that patient's immune system or whatever was not able to fight it off. So, he said he has to have Covid and when patient heard that after all they had fought to stay away from it and then what were they supposed to do. Patient got the vaccine and ended up with it and that is what reporter have found out and it was very disturbing. Patient was running a 103.1 earlier on the night of 02Mar2021. He was moaning a little bit on Mar2021. Reporter thought patient had severe allergic reaction to the vaccine because he had all the symptoms and stated there was no doubt in her mind (referring to it being an allergic reaction) as it was too soon after the vaccine. Outcome of the event of dehydration was recovering, while for the remaining events was unknown. Reporter was asking if patient should take the second shot.

On an unspecified date the patient experienced spiking of his blood pressure, sore arm, legs swollen, pain on one leg, on and off nausea, not feeling right. The patient had lab tests and procedures which included blood pressure measurement: 190/80. The clinical outcome of the events was unknown. The clinical course was reported as follows: 77-year-old caller reported receiving his second dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine 24Feb2021 and experienced a "sore arm" after. He explained that a week after vaccination, on the Monday, he " woke up with his legs swollen and pain on one leg". He stated he also experienced spiking of his blood pressure (BP), however on Monday 03Mar2021 he went to the ER since his BP rose over 190/80. He explained at the ER, he guessed they got him more call, and he received a prescription of "water pills" to take for "a couple weeks". He added then, there were moments when he "didn't feel right". He specified he would be "good" in the morning then he "just didn't feel right" in the afternoon. He reported about a month later, 13Apr2021 he had a "second incident with the spiking" of his BP, which led him to the ER. He explained his cardiologist then changed his amlodipine prescription to "5mg in the morning and 5mg at night". He explained he would take 1 pill of Amlodipine 10mg in the morning before vaccination. He added he would take 5mg of amlodipine for a year before being increased to that 10mg a day. He explained before vaccination, he "never experienced such spiking with his BP and considers himself healthy for his age. DSU agent reported his BP is generally around 120/70 and he routinely use the treadmill. He mentioned he now seems ok, has not have a "violent" BP spike, but has "not felt 100%" yet. He added some days he is "fine" and others he has "on and off nausea" or he "feels his legs are swollen in the evening". The main reason for his call is to see if Pfizer have any experience with people who have covid, the long haulers, with the effects for quite a while, that are 3 months in. He was wondering whether or not any long hauler folks that have had on and off side effects attributed it to the vaccine. Information about Lot Batch number has been requested.

He received his vaccine, and immediately he could taste it in his mouth. About 5-6 days later his normal routine was to work outside and noticed that he had lost his energy issue, and had this issue in the past when his pacemaker was out of wack. As the month went on it got worse and worse. In March he was out cleaning up the yard and as he worked it got worse and worse. He would have to work for 5 and sit down for a minute. He has hyperventilation syndrome and diagnosed back in 1980 and has been under control, this is one thing that always happens, which seems to be an ongoing problem that he's having. His settings on his pacemaker seem to be OK. He was sitting on his couch and watching a race on 3/8/21 and got a shock coming up from the bottom part of his head, through his chest and out through his right eye, this was less than 2 seconds. This was an event, but not a hard "mule" kick event. He wasn't doing anything to get the shock. The defibrillator is connected to the bottom part of his heart. He has a logic system and had an episode of 190-200 BPM which was at the top part of his heart. He had all of his equipment checked out yesterday, but they could not give him an answer why he got a shock. He now has to set up an appointment with his cardiologist to see tomorrow. He has had the pacemaker for 6-7 years now and the device goes into the device clinic and he gets reports regarding this information. They device people said there was no registration that he had any event.

She said she can't prove his collapsed lung was a side effect of the COVID-19 Vaccine, but her husband never had sick lungs in his life. She said she knows her husband doesn't have the COVID-19 Virus because he had to be tested on Saturday (20Mar2021) for the COVID-19 Virus before he could have his surgery on Monday (22Mar2021). She said her husband's COVID-19 Virus test was negative Saturday, but he has all these problems.

Progressive lower extremity weakness with markedly diminished reflex: Per the history it appears that patient has had a progressive course of this problem over the last 1 week. His symptomatology is mostly consistent with gait ataxia with some lower extremity weakness. He mentions that his weakness of the lower extremities became more and more pronounced towards the end of the week when he would start trembling in his legs whenever standing for some time. Although he had some numbness and tingling few days ago but that does not seem to be the predominant symptoms. There was no preceding symptoms of any viremia prior to this. Although he has Covid in January, however he did not have cough expectorations upper respiratory infection or any diarrhea in the last 1 month. He has not been exposed to any new pets or any new medications. His clinical exam suggest a lower extremity weakness more proximal than distal although there appears to be some sensory sparing. He has diminished reflexes all over including absent reflexes in his lower extremities and many of the upper extremities. His imaging study did not show any specific etiology for the cause of his problem. He does not have any spinal etiology and his exam does not show any upper motor type of involvement. His spinal fluid shows a high protein with no cells consistent with cytoalbuminogenic dissociation. So he definitely fits with the diagnosis of acute immune mediated demyelinating polyneuropathy or Guillain-Barré syndrome. On IVIG therapy. Overall appears to be some improved however not still able to walk.

Patient had second dose of Pfizer vaccine in morning. That afternoon began complaining of abdominal pain with subsequent vomiting (x2) and possible diarrhea. Patient could not sleep that evening . Awoke next morning with continued abdominal pain throughout the day and ultimately was found unresponsive in bed. Transported to hospital where he was pronounced dead. Subsequently autopsy was performed which revealed significant pre-existing hypertensive and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease with evidence of acute myocardial infarction. There is no clear evidence that this is related to the vaccination, however it is being reported due to potential public health interest and temporal proximity to vaccination.

A little over a week ago I was admitted to a local hospital having been diagnosed with Guillain?Barré syndrome, a debilitating condition where the body?s auto immune system attacks the nervous system resulting in peripheral numbness in one?s hands, feet and legs. This condition was diagnosed by a neurologist. Following his diagnosis, I spent 8 days in the Hospital and was treated for 5 days with a daily dose of 400ml of immune globulin (IVIG) to rebuild the damage to my nervous system. On April 10, I began to feel the onset of Guillain Barré syndrome as the bottoms of my feet suddenly began to tingle and feel numb. The next day I tripped while returning our waste management garbage cans to our garage. Fell face forward onto the driveway and was bruised pretty bad. The next day my BP zoomed to 224/160. 911 was called and I was taken to our local hospital fearing and thinking that I was having a heart attack. I spent 4 days in the hospital being checked for a possible heart attack and all the while my Guillain Barré syndrome was progressing undiagnosed. I was discharged and instructed to see a neurologist for the tingling and numbness in my hands, legs and feet. Within 15 minutes of the neurologist consult, a few days following my discharge, I was told I had Guillain Barré syndrome and get to a hospital. I left his office and went straight to the emergency room and I spent the next 8 days there and was discharged Tuesday, 4 May 2021. Several hospital neurologists treating me believed the vaccination triggered the syndrome as do I. It's not being widely reported even though there have been several Facebook postings of people saying the same thing as me.

On March 2, he woke up feeling bad and had a fever of 102.7. He took tylenol and liquids all day and the fever came down to around 100. The next morning he woke up complaining of excruciating pain in his left arm (site of the injection). He couldn't stand to have anything touch it, couldn't move it and couldn't sleep because of the pain. The next morning he woke up very weak, wasn't able to speak clearly, wasn't making sense. He had a telemedicine appointment scheduled that morning for another matter. The doctor took one look at him and said we should have him evaluated asap. I took him to the emergency room at Hospital. They did some tests and said he was septic and immediately put him into the ICU. He was started on IV antibiotics while the blood cultures were growing out. It was determined that the bacteria was Strep G but they were unable to identify the source. He was put on a ventilator and an echo cardiogram was done. It was believed that the source of the infection was his pacemaker and I was told the pacemaker would have to be removed. They couldn't do it at that hospital. He was transferred to another hospital. The doctors at that hospital determined the pacemaker was not the source. It was believed by some doctors that the source of infection was the injection site. The infection was cleared from his body and the ventilator was removed after 2 weeks. He lived another 2 weeks but never was able to recover. Until the day he was put on paliative care, he expressed pain in the arm where he had received the vaccination. He died at 5:30 a.m. on April 1, 2021.

(MFR Control No. # 21K-163-3841481-00). A non-contactable consumer (patient) reported for himself that a 78-year-old male patient received bnt162b2 (Pfizer, Batch/Lot number was not reported), intramuscular on 12Mar2021 as single dose for covid-19 immunization; adalimumab (HUMIRA, Batch/Lot number was not reported, Solution for injection in pre-filled pen), subcutaneous from an unspecified date to an unspecified date, at unknown dose for moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis. The patient's medical history and concomitant medications were not reported. The patient experienced difficulty breathing on an unspecified date, pneumonia in Mar2021, pain in arm, neck and back in Mar2021, human immunodeficiency virus on an unspecified date. The events difficulty breathing and pneumonia were reported as serious per hospitalization, event human immunodeficiency virus was serious per medically significant. The patient took covid-19 vaccine and afterwards had pain in arm, neck and back and could not breathe. He went to emergency room and was hospitalized due to difficulty breathing and was diagnosed with pneumonia. He did not know if this was due to vaccine and would not be taking second vaccine shot per his primary physician. He also had human immunodeficiency virus.

The action taken in response to the events for adalimumab was unknown. The outcome of events for difficulty breathing was unknown, for other events was resolving. The reporter's causality for the event(s) of Pneumonia, Pain in arm, Human Immunodeficiency virus, Pain in Back and Pain in neck with adalimumab was no reasonable possibility. Causality for all events with COVID-19 vaccine was not reported. The reporter's assessment of the causal relationship of all events with the suspect product was not provided at the time of this report. Since no determination has been received, the case is managed based on the company causality assessment. Information on batch/lot number has been requested.; Sender's Comments: Based on known disease pathophysiology, the reported event of Human Immunodeficiency virus , pneumonia and dyspnea is assessed as not related to suspected product bnt162b2 vaccine and the events pneumonia and dyspnea are more likely due to underlying medical condition of chronic plaque psoriasis. However the reported events of Pain in extremities ,Pain in Back and Pain in neck is assessed as related due to close temporal association with the suspect product. However, more information is required on date of HIV infection deducted to properly assess the case. The case will be reevaluated should additional information become available. The impact of this report on the benefit-risk profile of the Pfizer product and on the conduct of the study is evaluated as part of Pfizer procedures for safety evaluation, including the review and analysis of aggregate data for adverse events.

Imaging again reveals significant airspace disease involving the right lower lobe diffusely and partially involving the right middle lobe on CAT scan with a small right pleural effusion seen. He had a CT of the abdomen and pelvis which was negative for any malignant spread. Patient was also seen by oncology who discussed further work-up, prognosis with the patient and felt that overall he was too ill to pursue any further work-up or treatment at this time and recommended hospice/palliative care.

Skin started itching everywhere; Skin started feeling sunburned everywhere; Some little raised bumps on his stomach like a little area of that itched/On his stomach he had the little welts that started to itch; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer or other non hcp. A 78-years-old male patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE, Formulation: Solution for injection), dose 2 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 17Feb2021 11:00 (at the age of 78 years old) (Batch/Lot Number: EN6201; Expiration Date: Jun2021) as single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included allergies. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. Previously the patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE, Formulation: Solution for injection), dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 21Jan2021 (Batch/Lot Number: EL3249; Expiration Date: Jun2021) as single dose for COVID-19 immunisation and experienced itching all over his body. States he took Benadryl regularly for the side effects but after 4-5 hours of taking the Benadryl, his symptoms returned. After a few days the itchiness resolved. States he went to allergist and received a prescription for prednisone, epipen and Benadryl with instructions for use by allergist. He was instructed to take Benadryl prior to the 2nd shot of the vaccine. He was instructed to take Benadryl if reaction post vaccine shot was mild and instructed to use epipen and call if he had a bad reaction. Also instructed to take Prednisone if Benadryl was not working. Received his second vaccine shot yesterday and, in the afternoon, developed a sun burning sensation on his skin in addition to itchiness and a welt on his stomach. The patient took Benadryl and within 30 mins symptoms resolved. He had had to take Benadryl regularly (every 4-5 hours) as his symptoms returned about 4 hours after a dose of Benadryl. States he has not needed the epipen or prednisone and would like to know if Benadryl deactivates effectiveness of vaccine. The patient wanted Pfizer to conduct clinical trials/have information on how antihistamines may interfere with the vaccine and asked if there is a blood test he can take after a period after the second vaccine dose to determine effectiveness of the vaccine. Concerned about his reaction as wondering if he should avoid the vaccine if a booster is indicated down the road and especially if his reaction is consider serious reactions and asked about the half-life. This consumer called to ask if Benadryl he has taken would affect the efficacy of the Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine that he has been administered. He has allergies so he took a Benadryl approximately 2 hours before being administered the vaccine around 11:00. After second dose was administered, he felt ok, he waited on site for about 30 minutes for monitoring like you are supposed to. About 2 hours after vaccine was administered his skin started feeling sunburned everywhere and skin started itching everywhere. In response to events he took another Benadryl. About 30 minutes after taking Benadryl the events went away. About 4-5 hours later the events came back the same way as when they started. He had some little raised bumps on his stomach like a little area of that that itched. His body itched all over but it felt horrible sunburned. He took another Benadryl and in about 30 minutes the events kind of cleared up, it was good. About 4 hours after that the Benadryl wore off, the events came back so he took another Benadryl. Today the events are ongoing but a lot milder than it was on 17Feb2021. It seemed like every 4-5 hours the events would come back but milder today. His question is since he had to take Benadryl or he would have been itching all over the place; and he did not want to go to emergency room which he probably would have had to if he had not taken the Benadryl; and he would like an answer, not a maybe; since he had to take Benadryl and taken Benadryl again today and got the Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine shot yesterday, is the Benadryl counteracting the efficacy of the Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine. He has had no other vaccines or immunizations other than the first dose of Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine. He took Benadryl pill 2 hours before he went for the second dose of Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine; had the second dose of Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine shot, nothing happened until he would say maybe around 13:00; because he waited 30 minutes after the shot; got in the car and came home. Around 13:00 he started getting the itchiness but this time his skin felt like it was sunburned everywhere. He was not out in the sun, it is snowing there, there are clouds, no sun; skin all over felt like it was sunburned. On his stomach he had the little welts that started to itch; He took Benadryl. He did not want to use the Epi-Pen because the allergist said he had to call # if he used the Epi-Pen and he did not want to do that. Benadryl cleared it up; did not make it go away; about 4 hours later events started back; so he took Benadryl again; and about 4 hours later events came right back; it did that all night. Today, right now, he took a Benadryl let's say about 4-5 hours ago and events are not coming back like that. If events do not come back, he probably won't take another Benadryl. Events are a lot milder now, seems like they are going away. The Benadryl works. His concern is because he did hear on TV from one of those TV doctors on one of those daily regular daily talk shows that his idea was, and caller reported it is unknown how accurate the information is; but the doctor said avoid taking medications like Aspirin, Tylenol or antihistamines, all that stuff when you get your shot because it could affect the efficacy of the shot. Caller is not sure he is right; because his allergist just said take the Benadryl in case of anaphylactic shock which he did not have. Would like to know if this a waste of all this stuff he did because what they did now was he interfered with the action of the vaccine. No other vaccines were administered on same date with the Pfizer vaccine considered as suspect. The adverse events required visit to Physician office and not required to visit Emergency room and was not hospitalized. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of the events. The outcome of the events was recovering. No follow up attempts are possible. No further information is expected.

A 79-year-old male patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 MRNA VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration, dose 2, administered in Arm Right on 11Mar2021 (Batch/Lot Number: EN6204) as SINGLE DOSE for COVID-19 immunization.

There were no concomitant medications. The patient got the second dose of BNT162B2. The patient was fine, had no problems until 15Mar20201 (4 days afterwards), the patient stated, "I started getting chills, shaking uncontrollably , nausea, fatigue, a little bit of everything. I wouldn't be calling you but this has not subsided. It's been 3 weeks now and I'm not feeling well. It ebbs and tides. I've been taking a diary. I went to the ER last Monday because I was wheezing in the morning and had shortness of breathe in between all the other symptoms. They did all kind of blood tests, covid test which was negative, chest x-ray showed bronchitis. Blood work and ultrasound of my bladder with unknown results. They sent me home with a inhaler, steroid and an antibiotic and every day since then it seems like at night 9, or 10 o'clock I start feeling better and sleep through the night. My fever is 97.7 degrees fahrenheit but about 2, 3 or 4 o'clock my fever ticks up a little and I start to feel lousy, my stomach feels. I feel like I have hot flashes; a feeling of warmth with achiness and lack of appetite. So I take my Tylenol 7 or 8 o'clock at night my temperature is 97.7F. I haven't had 1 good day since. I've been to my doctor, ER, I've talked with the CDC. What information do you have for people who have had long term symptoms/side effects? What am I supposed to do? Someone from Pfizer needs to give me advice. If not I'll go to the news network. I don't feel well. It's directly related. No one has given me relief or help. It's impacting my life. I've been sick every day. Is there someone above you who can tell me what to do? I took their (Pfizer's) vaccine that was recommended. It was your vaccine. Not mine. Someone has to have an answer for me. Unless you want to go and have lawsuit and the news. Just think about it, if you had to go through the symptoms of having the flu everyday. Please relay this to someone. If I don't heard back within a week, then I'm going ballistic. It's not going to be pretty. Someone has to get back to me to help. I want someone to tell me that I'm not crazy, I'm not the only experiencing this. There has to be an answer. I took your vaccine. You are responsible. I want to know. I can't be the only one in the whole world who is feeling like this. I've been to the ER and the doctors. I've had every side effects but theirs go away in a few days, but mine hasn't. I need advice, that I'm not nuts, something that will help me get better. I want to feel better. It's effecting my family my life. Doesn't it seem odd? I can't be the only one? Someone has to know something. They (drug companies) like to hide the facts. I am sick because I took BNT162B2 vaccine. I need someone to get back to me." After the second dose of BNT162B2, the patient has been experiencing an achy feeling, heat throughout the body, shivering, shaking, trouble walking, and some fever. He reports taking Tylenol, and that helps, but he is still having symptoms that come and go and it has been 3 weeks since the second injection of the Pfizer covid-19 vaccine. He reports going to the ER for treatment after the second injection, and a COVID-19 test was negative and they did not find anything else other than the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine that would be causing his symptoms. The events hasn't gone away, it's now about 3.5 weeks and he hasn't had a good day since then he has been experiencing chills and fever. It goes away for a couple hours, it goes away till around 9 or 10PM at night, then he is good at night, then in the afternoons around 2PM or so the fever kind of comes back and instead of chills he is getting warm flush, when taking his temperature he notices it ticks up. He is taking Tylenol every 6 hours. He would like to know if this is normal and have others reports this? The First time he experienced the chills and fatigue it was on 18Feb2021.

A 79-years-old male patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Solution for injection, Batch/Lot Number: EL3248), dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 27Jan2021 11:00 (at 79-years age) as single dose for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included diabetes and hypertension (he was diabetic and was on blood pressure medication, but both his hypertension was under control, and his diabetes, sure his A1C is higher than it should be but was under control with oral medication), root canal infection (though this was contributed to the root canal which he had on 29Jan2021, the root canal was on the lower left of the mouth, tooth number 20). Patient provided relevant Family medical History of Hypertension. Concomitant Medications: He was just taking his general medications, like his maintenance medication, nothing out of the normal. He had no other vaccines on the same day as the covid vaccine or in the 4 weeks prior. He had no positive covid or antibody test prior to the first dose (he had never had a test).On 08Feb2021, the patient had the 1st occurrence of swelling was like golf ball size, it was visible, but it went away after 3-4 hours and he didn't have to take anything. Then on the 11Feb2021, the patient woke up at 4:30AM, experienced the swelling and it felt numb, the numb feeling starting on left side of cheek and wound up settling in upper lip, it gave him a distorted appearance, it was severe. The swelling in the mouth, that wound up settling in upper lip which was the 2nd occurrence in a 3-day period. The first occurrence was swelling, not as severe, in the lower inside of the mouth in the lower right inside of the gum, the swelling appearance from the outside, though this was contributed to the root canal (had on 29Jan2021). The swelling in the mouth from 08Feb2021 subsided for him in 3-4 hours. He called endodontist, and told her about the second swelling, she said to come in and look at it, that was on 11Feb2021, she took X-rays and result was normal, she said it was not connected to the root canal and told him to contact his Primary and go from there, he agreed with her because he did not feel any type of sensitivity. On 11Feb2021, patient then called the Primary Care doctor, told how he developed the swelling, and the primary care said that he would rather see an ENT specialist and he got an appointment with the ENT that same day 11Feb2021 at 15:00 in the afternoon. The patient went to see him, the ENT checked his mouth out, checked his nose and throat, he did not know what it was stemming from, and said he will put him on an antibiotic. On 11Feb2021, the ENT said that the patient did had a swollen gland he noticed on the left side. The swelling in the mouth on the 11Feb2021 on his lip lasted about 2 days, his upper lip irritated on inside for a day or 2, but it lasted till about the 13Feb2021.

Patient felt like he was sort of on edge for another occurrence possibly happening. Being on the antibiotic, maybe this was some type of infection. The ENT told honestly that he didn't know why this happened, but if it happened again, he might have a CT scan for the suspect salivary gland, maybe it was clogged or there was an infection in the gland. He asked if he should take the pills or reschedule the vaccine dose and if it was ok to receive the second shot while on this antibiotic (his prescribing doctor couldn't give an answer). On 18Feb2021, the patient was due to have booster. Patient would have 2 pills left on the 18Feb2021, after that he was finished. Therapeutic measures of antibiotic were taken as a result of swelling that occurred in his mouth (mouth swelling).

embolic stroke; blood clot; His major issue was speech and wasn't able to formulate any words; left sided weakness on his leg; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable nurse (patient's daughter). A 79-year-old male patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration on 30Mar2021 11:00 (Batch/Lot number was not reported) as 2nd dose, single dose (at the age of 79-years-old) for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included transient ischaemic attack (TIA) from 2019 to an unknown date, mild hypertension, idiopathic neuropathy: in the left leg, started in the beginning of the year from 2019, melanoma removed in the 1970s, enlarged prostate, neuropathy, cholesterol and fluid retention. Ongoing concomitant medications included tamsulosin taken for enlarged prostate; gabapentin taken for neuropathy; candesartan taken for hypertension; pravastatin taken for cholesterol; acetylsalicylic acid (BABY ASPIRIN); and furosemide (LASIX [FUROSEMIDE]) taken for fluid retention. The patient has been taking all of his meds for quite some time, over 5 years. The patient did not have prior vaccinations within 4 weeks. The patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 on 09Mar2021 10:30 for COVID-19 immunization. The patient completed the Pfizer COVID vaccine series, the second shot was on 30Mar2021. On 09Apr2021, the patient had an embolic stroke. The patient's daughter stated that the patient has a history of TIA in 2019 and was concerned. She does not know if it was related. She added it might be that if people have previous risk, there may be some precautions, like to take a full dose of aspirin before, a week before. She sent an e-mail last 05May2021 and hasn't gotten a response back. The patient went to the ER due to embolic stroke and was in the hospital Friday (09Apr2021) through Wednesday. The patient went to the stroke rehab center for 3 weeks. The daughter clarified that the patient was in the hospital until 14 or 15Apr2021 before being transferred (also reported as 5 or 6 days and in rehab for three weeks). Then was discharged last 06May2021. The patient's condition seemed to be getting better. His major issue was speech and wasn't able to formulate any words. He was able to speak now. His rehab would be a lot of neurological rehab and speech therapy. The patient previously had left sided weakness on his leg from some random thing that happened. It didn't seem to get worse. It really affected his speech and cognition. The patient's daughter thought that the embolic stroke was related to the Pfizer Covid vaccine and added that thought was in some way but cannot say in what way. She thought that it exacerbated some type of blood clotting. She stated that he never had blood clotting issues before and was the type of person that would take a baby aspirin and get a nose bleed, he was the opposite of a clotter. An MRI in the hospital showed blood clot and stroke. He had blood work but does not know what it showed and presumed he was fine (unknown results). He has never really had any kind of blood work issues and does not know why he was on cholesterol medication. The patient required emergency room visit for embolic stroke. The outcome of the events was unknown. Information on the lot/batch number has been requested.; Sender's Comments: Considering a plausible temporal relationship and known product safety profile, a possible contributory role of suspect product BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE) to the reported "embolic stroke" cannot be excluded. Previous medical history and Old age is a risk factor for the onset of stroke. 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.

right wrist was "quite sore and painful"/left wrist then "started swelling and being painful"; carpal tunnel; feeling anxious; feels "warm" outside of his left wrist/ felt like a fire underneath his kneecap/ was hotter than a firecracker; arm was so sore he couldn't pick it up straight in the air; trouble walking; right shoulder was swollen; left knee is swollen real bad; right shoulder was pretty sore and is getting worst all the time; left knee was "sore"; right wrist twice as thick as [his] left one/left wrist then "started swelling and being painful"; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer, the patient. This 80-year-old male patient received the second dose of BNT162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE, Lot Number: UNKNOWN) via unspecified route in Apr2021 (at the age of 79-years-old) as a single dose for the corona virus, to get rid of it/ it's supposed to be sure he didn't get it. Patient had no medical history. There was no relevant family medical history. There were no additional vaccines administered on same date of the COVID-vaccine. Patient had no adverse events following prior vaccinations. He remembers his first polio shot he got that back in the early 50's and his second shot was a cube of sugar, called the salt vaccine. Stated he's been getting vaccines for a long time and he never had any trouble with any of them. The patient previously received the initial dose of the BNT162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE) in 2021 (March or April) in the left arm which was deemed invalid by the vaccination provider due to temperature related issues (i.e wasn't cold enough). He explained he received a letter informing him of this incident and recommending a replacement dose (which he thinks was on 06Apr2021). About 2 to 3 weeks before he got his first COVID shot, he got a flu shot in his left arm, about 4 or 5 inches above where he got his COVID shot. The patient's concomitant medications were not specified. He reported that the second vaccine (BNT162b2) caused him problems. On 06May2021, he woke up with his right wrist twice as thick as his left one, it was swollen real bad. The right wrist was quite sore and painful. He didn't know if he was getting carpal tunnel or what it was, so he went to the ER about it and they gave him three different kinds of pills, two of which included tramadol 50mg one every day and ibuprofen 400 mg. The ER couldn't determine the cause for his reaction. About 3-4 days after taking the prescribed medication, his reaction subsided quite a bit and was not nearly as hurtful, but his left wrist then started swelling and being painful/sore. Therefore, he continued to take his medication and it improved. It was like that for a couple/ three days, and it calmed down. He thought he was okay 2-3 days ago, but this morning (14May2021), his right shoulder was swollen and pretty sore and was getting worse; he was in so much pain, so sore he could hardly even move his arm, he couldn't pick it up straight in the air, couldn't get his elbow up past his ear. The patient also reported that when he got off his bed, his left knee was sore and it felt like a fire underneath his kneecap and he was having trouble walking. The left knee was swollen real bad and was hotter than a firecracker. Thus, he went back to taking his pill again. The knee pain started the morning of 14May2021 about the same time it seemed and has worsened, and he took a 400mg ibuprofen and the other pill he's taking, "100 mg doxycycline or something". Patient hadn't been doing much since, he was feeling kind of laid up, he had thought it was all done with yesterday (13May2021). He stated he's been hearing things about allergic reactions to this COVID shot, was sure that a lot of people are having complaints of allergic reactions, and was sure he's not the only one who has had a problem like this.

Few days after the 2nd vaccine, his muscle pain got worse. He went to a pain clinic from 4/5/21 to 4/9/21. He stopped going there because his muscle pain got worse and he could not walk or move.

1 significant episode of asymptomatic Supraventricular tachycardia; transient ischemic attack; seizure-like shaking; shaking episode arms going up and down; extremely tired; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable physician (patient himself). A 79-year-old male patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), dose 2 via an unspecified route of administration in Feb2021 (Batch/Lot number was not reported) at the age of 79-year-old male as single dose for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included ongoing diabetes type two from 30 years, ongoing hypertension from 15 or 20 years ago, depression from 20 years ago, hyperlipidemia from 15 to 20 years, orthostatic hypertension (had it off and on for years; but it got bad in the last couple of months), pain and radiculopathy. Concomitant medication included metformin (1000 mg) taken for diabetes from an unspecified start date and ongoing (taking for years); glipizide (4 mg) taken for diabetes from an unspecified start date and ongoing (taking for years); lisinopril (10 mg) taken for hypertension from Mar2021 and ongoing; duloxetine (60 mg) taken for depression and pain from an unspecified start date and ongoing (taking for years); gabapentin (NEURONTIN) taken for radiculopathy, start and stop date were not reported. The patient previously took flu shot for immunization and took dose 1 of bnt162b2 in Jan2021 for Covid-19 immunization at the age of 79-year-old. Physician was calling regarding the Pfizer BioNTech COVID 19 vaccine. He had a very strange experience; added he was a physician and in reasonable good health. He had mild side effects, not much; the one side effect he did have was one week after the second shot he and his wife both felt extremely tired the whole day from Feb 2021. Physician mentioned that 4-6 weeks after getting the 2nd dose, he had a 3-5 minute episode of seizure-like shaking, shaking episode arms going up and down on 21Mar2021 and that he was just blankly staring and non-responsive. He had no other symptoms to suggest a seizure; no biting; no urination. This episode lasted three to five minutes. During the episode his wife said he was just staring ahead and he was non responsive to his wife who was only six inches away speaking to him. Then he started to vaguely he heard his wife's voice in the distance and then he woke up and then he was fine. Later that day he was hospitalized, they did a work up and discharged him about 4 days later. While in the hospital he thought he had a Blood work, CAT Scan; MRI; holter monitor; EEG but they were all normal. He had no other complications and the effect completely went away. Adds he was completely recovered when it went away. At discharge they put him baby aspirin, 81mg enteric coated aspirin once daily, and gave him a tentative diagnosis of transient ischemic attack (TIA). This further resulted to being hospitalized for 3 days but his physicians were not able to see anything significant on his MRI, 72 hours EEGs and telemetry tests (everything was normal). However, during his out-patient visit, his physician mentioned that he had 1 significant episode of asymptomatic Supraventricular tachycardia that may be causing the seizure (inconclusive). They further specified to him that it was not much of a tonic clonic seizure. He also verified that he only had 1 episode of the mentioned event, no other side effects experience and been feeling fine since then. After discharge he had a work up on the outside including a 72 hour EEG; 72 hour holter with the only thing that was abnormal that one run of 3 beat supraventricular tachycardia that was asymptomatic. His doctor put him on Metoprolol 12 mg once daily at night by mouth to help prevent arrhythmias as well as control his blood pressure. He had previously taken lisinopril. He added the only thing he knew that he never had anything like this before in his life. Patient mentions he was at a good weight now as he lost 40 pounds last year for his daughter's wedding. He added sometime in the last 6 to 8 months he had severe left side radiculopathy and was taking small dose of gabapentin. He did not remember if it happened before or after the vaccine but he went to see a pain specialist. The medication worked and he tapered it down and discontinued it. It may have been before the vaccine, he is unsure. But the medication worked like a miracle as he had intractable pain down his leg. All events resulted in emergency room. In line with this, he would like to know in relevance to the news of Pfizer releasing a possible booster dose, if there are any reports of anything that may be related to seizure and/or Transient ischemic attack (TIA) of cardiac origin or a like. Extremely tired was reported as non-serious, other events was serious and caused hospital from 21Mar2021 to 24Mar2021. Outcome shaking episode arms going up and down was recovered on 21Mar2021, of extremely tired was recovered in 2021, of other events was unknown.; Sender's Comments: There is no reasonable possibility that the events supraventricular tachycardia, seizure, tremor, and transient ischemic attack happening 4-6 weeks after vaccination were related to BNT162b2. It is more likely to be complications of pre-existing conditions of hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and diabetes. Advanced age may have been contributory as well. The impact of this report on the benefit/risk profile of the Pfizer product is evaluated as part of Pfizer procedures for safety evaluation, including the review and analysis of aggregate data for adverse events. Any safety concern identified as part of this review, as well as any appropriate action in response, will be promptly notified to regulatory authorities, Ethics Committees, and Investigators, as appropriate.

The patient had received the first dose of the COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccine on January 31, 2021 and the second dose on February 21. He presented to his primary care provider?s office on February 22, 2021 with complaints of 10 days of progressive weakness and muscle soreness. The weakness had reportedly involved the bilateral thighs and arms and was associated with muscle aches. Blood pressure measured 90/40 mmHg and examination was notable for symmetrical proximal weakness in the upper and lower extremities. The peripheral blood leukocyte count measured 3.5 x10e3/µL, hemoglobin 8.3 grams per deciliter and platelets 147 x10e3/µL. A peripheral blood smear was consistent with neutropenia and normocytic anemia with 9% circulating blasts. Total CK measured 1424 U/L. The patient was referred to hematology/oncology and rheumatology and had appointment scheduled for both on February 26. With the above background, he presented to emergency room on February 24 with altered mental status and continued weakness. He was taken to the hospital by emergency medical services. A temperature of 103 degrees Fahrenheit was recorded when emergency medical personnel had arrived. The peripheral blood leukocyte count was 1.4 x10e3/µL for an ANC of 0.8 x10e3/µL. Hemoglobin was 8.1 g/dL and platelets 111 x10e3/µL. A few schistocytes and teardrop cells were noted. The serum creatinine was 1.47 mg/dL. AST was 174, ALT 91 and alkaline phosphatase 93 U/L. The lactic acid level of the venous blood was 2.1 mmol per liter. A repeat total CK was 4631 U/L. Sedimentation rate measured 34 mm/h and CRP 52.3 mg/L. Urinalysis showed 0-2 wbc?s/hpf, 0-2 rbc?s/hpf, 3+ blood, negative nitrites, negative leukocyte esterase. A haptoglobin level of the blood was within normal limits. The lactic acid level of the venous blood was 2.0 mmol/L. LDH measured 838 U/L. A ferritin level was 3464 nanograms/mL. A test for COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) was negative. A chest radiograph showed minimal streaky right basilar atelectasis, trace left effusion and a mildly enlarged cardiac silhouette. A head CT showed no acute abnormality. An abdominopelvic CT without contrast was limited by motion artifact. No acute intra-abdominal or pelvic finding was noted. Nonspecific soft tissue stranding was seen in the right inguinal region. There was no soft tissue gas or drainable fluid collection. Cultures of specimens of the blood were obtained. The patient was started on empiric cefepime, vancomycin and doxycycline and admitted for further care. A peripheral blood smear for intracellular parasites was negative. The admission blood cultures came back positive for E. coli. With the blood culture results, the vancomycin and doxycycline were discontinued. The E. coli isolate has since been determined to be pansusceptible. A MRSA PCR of the nares was negative. He was found on exam to have swelling, cellulitis and exquisite pain of the right groin area on February 25. Surgical consultation was pursued. They did not feel that he had necrotizing fasciitis. The CT scan of the abdomen and pelvis was repeated with contrast, revealing increased extensive subcutaneous edema of the right groin region with extension into the thigh musculature and mild extension into the right inferior pelvis. There was no associated soft tissue gas or drainable abscess. A bone marrow biopsy was performed February 25. Results showed acute undifferentiated leukemia with 60-70% infiltration of the bone marrow with blasts. The blasts were negative for lineage markers. He was faintly CD33 positive. He is felt to likely have acute myeloid leukemia. Cytogenetics are pending.

At some time after the vaccines were given I started having muscle aches and pains throughout my body. Thighs, calves, butt, hips, biceps, forearms, and inside area between bicep and lower arm (opposite side of elbow) which would keep me awake at night due to the pain. That pain was only at night, the other pains were during the day and most times would last the whole day, but other times would lessen as the day went on. I still cannot sleep on my left side, due to hip and arm pain, but the very painful left arm pain persists as described above even when sleeping on my right side. I still have these pains as of the date of this writing, April 17, 2021.

An 80-year-old male patient of unspecified age and gender received the first/second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, batch/lot number and expiration date unknown) via intramuscular at left arm on 02Feb2021 10:00 (80-year-old at time of vaccination), at single dose, for COVID-19 immunisation. The patient's medical history included Stents from 2005 (a stent placed in 2005; a heart attack in 2017 and additional 5 stents were placed in 2017; a stent placed in his neck in Nov2019); Heart attack from 2017; Reaction to contrast dye from 2005 (has a reaction to the dye that they use for stents; had a stent placed in 2005 and had a reaction to the dye then; a mild heart attack in 2017 and did stents; once again had a reaction to the contrast dye); Sensitivity to bug bites (When the patient got big bites, you would think someone had beat him he had so many knots; the last few years the patient's reaction to bug bites got much worse); High blood pressure. Additional information for other conditions: The patient was very highly allergic or has a reaction to the dye that they use for stents. The patient had some heart stents and he had bad reactions to the contrast used. The patient was allergic to different things. The patient couldn't take codeine. When the patient got big bites, you would think someone had beat him he had so many knots. Reaction to contrast dye: the patient's physicians then wanted to do imaging with contrast dye on the patient's neck. Physician put the patient on a cocktail for 24-48 hours before the stent was placed and the patient still had a reaction. The patient was given a cocktail of Benadryl and 2 other medications that she cannot remember. The patient's reaction to the dye was not as bad as the first 2 but he still had one. The patient had the stent placed in his neck in Nov2019. The patient still had a reaction to the contrast dye, a mild reaction, even with the cocktail. The reaction was enough the patient was told to continue taking the medication afterward. The patient always carried a nitro bottle in his pocked but he never took any of them. They asked how the nitro tablets were and they were powder. They were blessed as far as the patient's heart. Concomitant medications included cetirizine taken for allergy problems; amlodipine taken for high blood pressure for years; acetylsalicylic acid (ASPIRIN) (for the arteries, just to keep the blood thin, the patient began taking aspirin after experiencing side effects from Effient). The patient previously received codeine and experienced sensitivity (Couldn't take codeine, goes way back, 40-50 years). The patient previously received prasugrel hydrochloride (EFFIENT) from 2017 and experienced shortness of breath (The patient was put on Effient after his stent placement in 2017. Doctor took the patient off of Effient and instructed him to just take aspirin because the patient was showing side effects of shortness of breath and different things. Doctor informed the patient that he would rather the patient just take Aspirin than have the side effects from Effient). The patient previously received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, batch/lot number and expiration date unknown) at left arm on 12Jan2021 (80-year-old at time of vaccination) for COVID-19 immunisation and experienced "so excited" (the patient was so excited after the first shot of the COVID-19 vaccine). The patient previously received tetanus vaccine toxoid (TETANUS) shot for immunisation (20 years ago at least) and experienced "Couldn't move arm, arm swelled and turned red and was messed up for a while". Prior vaccinations within 4 weeks was none. Patient's wife reported that she and her husband (the patient) took the COVID-19 vaccines on 12Jan2021 and 02Feb2021. After his second dose, the patient kept telling her that he didn't feel good and that he was tired (from 03Feb2021). The patient just did not feel good. The patient was cold and so cold to the touch (from 03Feb2021). On 03Feb2021, he was dragging. The patient just wanted to stay down and didn't want to get up. She asked the patient if this was going to keep him in the room all day. The patient replied that he just couldn't wake up. The patient was tired and cold and couldn't get warm. The patient lost 30 pounds (in Feb2021) after he got the second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. The patient walked around holding his pants up.

The patient told her that in his lower stomach, he described it as pressure, and the patient thought he was just kind of sore from coughing from the sinus infection. The patient couldn't stand clothes to touch him and would cut holes in his underwear elastic so that it wouldn't press into him. The patient went to the doctor twice from the time he took the second shot of the COVID-19 vaccine to his death (on 04Apr2021). The patient went to the clinic. The clinic thought the patient had a sinus infection (from 27Mar2021) and gave him a shot that would make him feel good. The patient got a shot on 27Mar2021. She wasn't sure what the shot was and she didn't get a print out. They treated the sinus infection with amoxicillin-clavulanate (875mg-125mg, manufacturer is Teun). The amoxicillin hadn't worked well and the patient went back to the clinic a second time on Friday, 02Apr2021. When the patient went to the doctor on 02Apr2021, they were unable to get a register on the finger pulse-ox monitor. The patient's physician did an X-ray (on 02Apr2021) and the X-ray was perfectly fine (normal). Nothing showed up on the X-ray at all. The patient passed away easter Sunday morning (04Apr2021). The cause of death listed on the patient's death certificate is due to consequence or problem of pulmonary embolism (from 04Apr2021), respiratory impairment. The patient did not receive an autopsy. The family didn't feel the need and the staff didn't even ask if the family wanted an autopsy. "When you live to be 80 years old, you're blessed." HCP: The patient's heart doctor did not see the patient on 04Apr2021 before he died. The last time the patient saw the doctor was Dec2020. The wife reported that she is not complaining, the patient made the decision to take the shot, she is just concerned that the patient had something that could help someone else. The wife stated she was not trying to complain at all, she took the COVID-19 vaccine right beside him and had no consequences. She didn't even have a sore arm. The family is just concerned that there is an ingredient in the COVID-19 vaccine or something that could trigger that in them. Yesterday, 23Jun2021, they were showing a lady on TV that was so sick (unable to provide details). "The patient" (unknown to which patient this is referring) got the shot and ended up in the hospital with side effects. The wife reported that's why she wanted to let Pfizer know about her husband. She was just reporting the patient's symptoms and was not wanting to hurt anyone's feelings in the world. She is not blaming the COVID-19 vaccine for the patient's death, and stated that it could have been his heart or more anything. She just felt like she needed to let pfizer know some of the side effects the patient was having that didn't start until after the second COVID-19 shot. The wife unable to provide the NDC number, lot number, or expiry date of the patient's COVID-19 vaccines. She does not have the information but her son does have that if Pfizer wanted to call and talk to him.

There were no additional vaccines administered on same date of the Pfizer Suspect. The patient got vaccinated with the Pfizer COVID vaccine on 14Jan2021. He was feeling great with no problems. He sat and waited 15 minutes, and felt fine. When they were driving home after breakfast, her mother said she was talking asking him a question, and he wouldn't respond. Her father could hear her mother asking the question, but he said he could not think of what he wanted to say. He told her he couldn't think of what he was thinking on 14Jan2021. It probably started 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes after vaccination, and lasted 15-20 minutes. He kept trying to think of stuff. He kept repeating this for a little bit. His wife thought he was just trying to think of something, but couldn't remember. He was 81. He was very healthy and in shape. He still rides his bike every day. He walks in the morning to play golf too. When they got home and woke up from the nap, and he felt fine. He did say it was the weirdest thing, and that it had to have come from the shot. Since then, he has felt perfectly fine. He had nothing more going on that would indicate any side effect. Her concern was that it sounded like possibly a mini stroke. Upon checking with an HCP (Healthcare professional), the doctor was concerned that it might be a mini stroke and scheduled him for a CAT (Computerised axial tomography) scan. He kept saying it had to be the shot because he has been fine ever since. He had no issues with soreness at site or anything. He didn't have a prescribing doctor. He was driving when it happened. He didn't have a slur or anything. His second appointment is on the 04Feb2021. The event did not require a visit to Emergency Room, but required a visit to Physician Office in the morning of 18Jan2021. The outcome of the event couldn't think of what he wanted to say was recovered, and of the other event was unknown. Information on lot/batch number has been requested.

Patient is a 81 y.o. gentleman with a history of smoldering multiple myeloma, urinary retention for which he self catheterizes twice daily, as well as recently diagnosed atrial fibrillation that presents complaining of increasing weakness and falls. Patient fell 2/18 pm trying to get out of bed and he took about 20 minutes to get himself to a position where he could pull himself back up. Again 2/19 he was trying to get up and his legs were too weak to carry him and he fell to the ground. He needed assistance to get up and family asked him to come to emergency room for evaluation. He has been feeling poorly for about a month, with poor appetite and has lost about 15 pounds. He is not nauseated or short of breath and has no cough. He was apparently treated for UTI about 4 to 6 weeks ago after a visit to urgent care. He has since been to a different urgent care and was diagnosed with atrial fibrillation which was new in onset and was referred to a cardiologist who is planning to do a stress test in a few weeks. I believe he is on Eliquis now. In ER he was found to have significant pyuria and bacteriuria and was given a dose of Rocephin. Renal function shows worsening from levels in December although it is pretty stable over the past month from looking through other labs.

Medical history included cancer from 2018 (started out with BCG treatments, where they insert bacteria into the bladder); Had another form of immunotherapy that didn't work too well for him and the cancer kept growing chemotherapy; Had a couple of operations and surgeries where the doctor removed it all but it came back. Best reaction was chemotherapy (It stopped the bleeding and was working on the cancer). Last one was 15Feb2021. Was getting blood work for every treatment. Had to miss one of the treatments due to low platelets. Has a chest port for treatments and blood work. Was very conscious before having chemo. It is kind of a rough thing to kill cancer but also kills good cells too. Definitely worked on killing the cancer for a while; the last treatment was 15Feb2021. Stage 4 was taking chemo. Had bladder cancer (which got out of the bladder and started spreading in to the lymph system), Height: used to be 5'7", is now maybe 5"4". The caller remarks that when he started with chemotherapy. he also lost a lot of weight. Weight: When he went in for last appointment it was 129 or 130 pounds.

Wife had no symptoms, maybe a bit of a sore arm and he had the same reaction. Was a very mild sore arm in 2021. On day 2 or 3 on the right side of the neck, had felt a little nagging in Mar2021 and slight pain, especially when he moved and felt it around his back. It is just starting to go away now at 3 weeks. Around the back, around the perimeter and when he coughs in Mar2021, he can feel it in his chest. He is scheduled for the second shot. Is wondering if the second shot will have those symptoms. It's not like it is anything severe, it is just nagging. What worries is him, is that it lasted this long. Is a cancer patient and had last chemotherapy 15Feb2021. His oncologist said to go ahead and take the shot because he really needs the protection. It was asked what if he has the same reaction again. Will go on website but wanted to find out what other people are experiencing and whether or not to take the second shot. Wants to take it for protection. Really wants to take the shot on Tuesday. Pain in neck and back: Only when he coughs, is more of an ache. Started day 2 after vaccine on 28Mar2021. Was like a very dull irritation in the right side of the neck in Mar2021. Was probably the lymph node in Mar2021. Pain in chest: When he sneezes in Mar2021, there is a sharp pain, all around the perimeter of his chest. Is gone as soon as he stops coughing. Feels when muscles are contracting in Mar2021. Started day 3 after getting the vaccine on 29Mar2021. Stage 4 was taking chemo. Had bladder cancer, which got out of the bladder and started spreading in to the lymph system. Wants to be put on immunotherapy but can't until he is finished with his shots. If he gets the immunotherapy and if he has a reaction, would have to use steroids and they do not want to do that with the vaccine. The doctor wanted to start him earlier on the immunotherapy but thought it was important to get the vaccine first, that taken care of. The pain is only sharp if he lifts something. Otherwise, it is just dull. He knows it is there. It is not completely gone. This morning was the best that he had. Really got good sleep last night. The best since it has happened. When he sneezes, he can kind of feel it around his chest, just around the perimeter of the muscles. Treatment: The first couple of days, just put up with it. Took Tylenol one day and then on another day. Takes at bedtime. Does not like taking Tylenol because it effects his liver. If he doesn't need it, he doesn't take it. In the last week, every night he has been less and less bothered by how he slept. Last night he didn't even know he had it, the pain, and slept really well. Have not taken any meds, just Tylenol on day 4 and 5 to help sleep. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of events. The outcome of events very mild sore arm, sneezes and feels when muscles are contracting was unknown. The outcome of other events was recovering. No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information is expected.

He was in kind of shock to experience all of this and he was G6PD (Intent: History). He cannot take Sulfur and Aspirin because that makes him bleed because his blood was already thin but that would be no problem also have a liver genetic deficiency (Intent: History). He was allergic to mice, cat, dust and trees (Intent: History). So, he told all what he had that they knew in the beginning they said none of those things will affect. He take B12 (Intent: History) too once a month, he get injection for allergies for his cats and trees and grass once a month but they told him none of the things will affect him. The outcome of the events was unknown. Information about the lot/batch number has been requested.

At that time the patient was able to get in the truck. The patient started walking very very slow that afternoon on 10Mar2021 and the next couple of days. The patient fell on 10Mar2021, 18Mar2021, 19Mar2021, 20Mar2021, 02May2021, and 02Jun2021. The patient lost the use of his legs completely. The patient was bedridden for 2 weeks. The patient had to get a hospital bed and lost a lot of his ability to get around. Prior to the vaccine, the patient was able to take a shower with an aid, walk to the truck and get in it, walk with a walker, walk 5 laps in his home with a walker per physical therapy, walk outside in the neighborhood for 30-40 minutes with his walker, could go to a restaurant and could sleep in a normal bed. After receiving the vaccine the patient's movements became slower the second and third day. The patient had one shower and sat down and couldn't get up so the aid had to take off her clothes and get him up and out. The patient was completely bedridden by day 6 and 7. The patient cannot enter their truck. They had to install a ramp from the kitchen into the garage for $2600. Since the patient couldn't get up, can't walk, and is bedridden he had to get a hospital bed. Medicare demands before you get a hospital bed and everything the doctor has to see the patient face to face. The patient didn't break anything, he has just lost the use of his legs.

The caller contacted the patient's ### for physical therapy and the doctor said he couldn't do it. The patient is now being seen at the ####. Since everyone is a #####, no one knows anything about this. The caller thinks the vaccine must hit the patient's nervous system. The patient's legs just give way. The patient can walk the length of the hospital bed to his lift chair. The patient had sores on his rear end and heels so they decided to put him back in his lift chair. The aids clean the patient in the morning then he eats, watches TV, the caller puts him in the lift chair where his feet are not touching anything. The patient's feet were healed last week (as reported). The patient has cuts on his left arm from his fall on 02Jun2021.

Chills; Fever; Weakness; I had couple of days when I had cough at night and little bit of this and that; I am worrying about the reaction because I didn't realize that I probably had Covid antibodies from the mild case that I had and then the shot hit me, was really bit apprehensive; Muscle ache; Tired; I had like laryngitis type like my vocal cords were little bit swelled; Aches; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). An 83-year-old male patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Solution for injection; Batch/Lot number and Expiration date were not reported), via an unspecified route of administration on 12Apr2021 (at the age of 83-years-old) as 1st dose, single for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included blood pressure and mild case of COVID-19 both from an unknown date. Concomitant medication included lisinopril taken for an unspecified indication, start and stop date was not reported. On an unspecified date, the patient experienced chills, fever, weakness, i had couple of days when i had cough at night and little bit of this and that, I am worrying about the reaction because I didn't realize that I probably had covid antibodies from the mild case that I had and then the shot hit me, was really bit apprehensive, muscle ache, tired, I had like laryngitis type like my vocal cords were little bit swelled and aches. It was reported that the patient had his first Pfizer shot last week and Monday, he had quite a reaction about four to five hours later and had chills, fever and weakness and so forth. He called one of the pharmacists about it and was asked if he had COVID before. The patient said that he was checked in for that but last month or so and was not checked down but he had couple of days when he had cough at night and little bit of this and that and he suspected that he might have something. The patient had COVID before he got the first shot within 5 or 30 days and that is why he got that reaction when that shot hit him. Now, the patient was concerned about the second shot, like if he will have a problem with that too, he was worrying to go to from about 2 or 3 days for that shot which was scheduled for next Monday, believed it is 3rd of May. The patient was really bit apprehensive about getting the shot simply because they usually recommend 90 days, in other words, after someone had COVID, to not get vaccination until at least 90 days afterwards. So, he was not sure what to do. The patient took as recommended for the fever, he took Tylenol and it was helpful as far as the aches, muscle ache and all that. Also, he was still very tired and the fever that he got after the shot was only for one day or he got it that night and lasted maybe till the next day and he was sure that it's going to come down and he will feel better. The weakness that linked, had a cough anyway, was going through this cough a little bit and had muscle ache. He also had like laryngitis type like his vocal cords were little bit swelled but was now getting better and it took like a good week like week and a half and that's why he was concerned about the second shot. The patient thought what he was hoping to do, was to stop a week or two and give it a little bit of time because he may be close to the 90 day window, it appeared the best way to do that but he thought that it was what the experts should be able to tell him. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included COVID-19 virus test: No- Negative on 23Feb2021. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of events fever, muscle ache and aches included TYLENOL. The outcome of the event I had like laryngitis type like his vocal cords were little bit swelled was recovering and the outcome of all the other events was unknown. No follow-up attempts are possible; information about lot/batch number cannot be obtained.

pain in his left wrist; arm pain and swelling to left arm; arm pain and swelling to left arm; swollen under side of his arm where he got the vaccine injected; pain in his left wrist, which was the same arm that he received his injection; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer, the patient. A 84-years-old male patient received the second dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE; Lot Number: EL9266), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in left arm on 13Feb2021 (at the age of 84-years-old) as a single dose for covid-19 immunization. Patient previously received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE, Lot number: EL9262), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in left arm on 23Jan2021 (at the age of 84-years-old) as a single dose for covid-19 immunization. Medical history included hypertension, occasionally rapid heart beat, blood cholesterol abnormal, cardiac operation (9 years ago, macular degeneration (in each eye and puts eyedrops in and occasionally they give him injections). Concomitant medication(s) included atorvastatin (LIPITOR [ATORVASTATIN]; 10mg everyday) taken for blood cholesterol abnormal; estradiol (ESTROGEN; 10mg everyday). The patient did not have any other recent vaccinations or started any new medications. The patient reported practically had no symptoms with either shot. After his first dose he had one day where his blood pressure went very low but by the time he talked to his cardiologist it had gone back to normal and was taking pills, it was under control. Yesterday afternoon he experienced pain in his left wrist, which was the same arm that he received his injection, and describes the pain as not too bad. He states that when he uses his wrist in certain positions, the pain "shoots up." This morning on the lower part of his left arm ("not the top where I got the injection") he has "slight pain." He says this morning his upper arm on the underside where he got it on the left side is swollen. He says he would like to know can it be from vaccine, though maybe he could have strained his wrist, it happened yesterday evening, he had wrist pain and swollen under side of his arm where he got the vaccine injected. He says yesterday late afternoon was the first time, it could be something else, it was the same arm this morning he has a little pain to his upper arm that was not on injection side but below, under it. The patient did not received any treatment, it was not serious pain, it was low level pain, when he uses his wrist and turns it, it comes in more prominent. He says it was not pain that bothers him, if it was not related to the vaccine then he most likely strained his arm. No follow-up attempts are possible. No further information is expected.

Heart stopped; Could not swallow; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable nurse (patient's wife). An 85-year-old male patient received the first dose of the bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 MRNA VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration on 21Jan2021 at a single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included blood pressure abnormal (verbatim: blood pressure) from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing, neuropathy from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing, weight issue from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing, diabetes from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing, walker user from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing. Concomitant medications included insulin aspart (NOVOLOG) taken for diabetes from an unspecified date to an unspecified date; and he was taking a long acting one as well. The patient previously received the influenza vaccine (MANUFACTURER UNKNOWN) for immunization on unknown dates ("had flu shots before with no reactions and everything, nothing before"). On 24Jan2021, the patient's heart stopped (death, medically significant), and could not swallow (medically significant). The clinical course was reported as follows: The patient's wife stated the patient was taking insulin aspart (NOVOLOG) and he was taking a long acting one as well. The reporter, the patient's wife and a retired registered nurse (RN) stated, her husband (patient) just died and she thought he died from the COVID vaccine (later clarified the reason of death was-heart stopped). The patient had the vaccine on 21Jan2021, which was on a Thursday, and he was fine. On the following Sunday around 1:30 (on 24Jan2021), the patient was feeling a little weak, however, the patient's wife thought maybe his blood sugar was low. The patient's wife checked, and the patient's blood sugar was 91. The patient's wife went to get some yogurt to feed him in order to get his blood sugar up a little; "which was a normal thing for him, it was not that low for him." Then, suddenly, the patient fell, and the patient's wife could not get a pulse or anything. The patient's wife called an unspecified number and she started compressions; however, he was dead. The patient's wife stated the patient just had his heart test, a three hour long one, and it was "perfect three weeks ago." The patient had just gone to the doctor the other day and his blood pressure was "fine and everything." The patient's wife stated that other than his diabetes, "which he had for (sentence incomplete)." Regarding lab tests, the patient's wife stated, "No, he had it before but not in the last two weeks. He was going for one because we just went to the doctor last week and he was going to call yesterday to make the appointment request to get his blood work done. Blood work has been good except his A1C was always high, but other than that everything was good" (as reported). Regarding causality, the patient's wife stated, "I do, because he was fine until about half an hour before he died. He said to me, I feel a little weak today and then I was talking to him that your upper body strength is really good and then I said, we just have to work on your weight a little more because he did have neuropathy. And then, I went out of the room and all of a sudden I just heard him fall and that is when I just went in to check his blood sugar and it was 91 and I got him yogurt and he started eating that and then that was it, he started spitting it out and he said, I could not swallow and that was it, he just died." The patient's wife further added, "I just wanted other people to know that things like this happen and I am sure it was from that because he was healthy as could be. He was walking with his walker, the day before outside and he felt fine." The clinical outcome of the event, heart stopped, was fatal. The clinical outcome of the event, could not swallow, was unknown. The patient died on 24Jan2021 due to "heart stopped." An autopsy was not performed. The batch/lot numbers for the vaccine, PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 MRNA VACCINE, were not provided and will be requested during follow up.; Reported Cause(s) of Death: Heart stopped

85 year old male who presents with 2 episodes loose black stools, weakness, decreased appetite, increased lethargy and subjective fever today, 02/22. Again admitted and had further rheumatological and infectious work up with negative results He was initially admitted to Hospital on 02/12 with fatigue, atypical chest pain, melena. He had received 2nd dose of Pfizer vaccine on 02/10. He was hospitalized from 02/12-02/15 and thought to have viral pericarditis. Diagnosis at discharge: SIRS DUE TO NONINFECTIOUS PROCESS W ACUTE ORGAN DYSFUNCTION. He was started on celebrex in addition to the the colchicine as an anti-inflammatory. After initiation of the anti inflammatory medications, patient's fever resolved, he started feeling better and his inflammatory markers decreased. He was monitored for another days and was feeling better. He is therefore being discharged home. In view of the negative work up, there is suspicion that these may be a hyper inflammatory response to the COVID vaccine since his symptoms were temporally related.

My father received his first Pfizer vaccine on 02/03/21. On 2/12/21 I rushed him to the ER. He was vomiting uncontrollably and had shortness of breath. Once arrived at ER, they immediately put him on oxygen. Vomiting lasted several hours. They tested him for Covid and did a chest x-ray. Tested positive for Covid. Chest x-ray showed Covid pneumonia. Was admitted. Stayed in hospital for 5 days and was then released to nursing home for physical and occupational therapy. He was very weak and on days experienced what they called Covid fog. After 2 weeks of therapy, he was released on 03/06/21 to go back home to his apartment, with extended visiting nurse therapy. On 3/10/21, was the first visiting nurse appointment. At 12:00 an RN came to his apartment from Home Health Care. She checked his vitals. She said his blood pressure was good, lungs sounded good and oxygen level was 98. She said he was doing good and that she would not need to continue to come out and check on him weekly. She left. At 2:30 the same day, a Physical Therapist from Home Health Care came. She asked him lots of questions and adjusted my fathers' walker for him. He showed her how he was doing using the walker. Walked approximately 15-20 feet in his apartment. She checked his vitals before she left. His oxygen level was now at 91. She had him take a few deep breathes until his oxygen level was up to 93. She left and said she would be back on Friday the 12th to begin the actual physical therapy then. Within 10 minutes after she left my father started shaking uncontrollably and was having difficulties breathing. I called 911. Paramedics arrived. My fathers' oxygen level was all the way down to 74. They took him to the ER. When getting him out of ambulance he began vomiting. Vomiting lasted for hours just like when he went to the hospital back in February. They tried 3 different drugs to control the nausea. They did EKG, chest and abdomen scans. Was found that he had multiple blood clots and inflammation in his lungs and a bacterial infection in his blood. After testing, bacteria was found to be E Coli. Treated him with heparin for clots and antibiotics for infection and had him on oxygen in nose. Every day thereafter, he felt worse. They switched him to a high flow oxygen mask to keep his oxygen levels up. By Saturday night (early morning Sunday) on 03/14, they had taken the high flow oxygen mask off and hooked him up to a BiPap oxygen machine because his oxygen levels were dropping too low. We were then told by the lung doctor, that the damage to his lungs was extreme and that the next step would be to put him on a ventilator and feeding tube. My father did not want this per his will and his discussion with Dr earlier in the week. Dr indicated that he would not get better just being on the BiPap machine and we then chose to have them take him off of the machine because he did not want to go on life support. My father passed away on Sunday, March 14th around 6:30pm.

Itching; Aches and pains; Pins and needles; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (reporting for herself). A 85-year-old male patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH mRNA COVID-19 VACCINE), dose 2 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Right on 25Feb2021 12:00 (Batch/Lot Number: EN6202; Expiration Date: 30Jun2021) as SINGLE DOSE for covid-19 immunisation (85-year age at Vaccination). The patient medical history was none. The patient had no previous allergies. Patient states he has a pacemaker and has a stent in his heart. Both have been there for over 10 years. The patient's concomitant medications include carvedilol (COREG) at 25 mg, twice a day taken for cardiac disorder (He has been taking this for years). It was reported that patient previously took first dose of bnt162b2 (Lot number: EM9809, Expiry date: 30Jun2021) 04Feb2021 11:00. It was reported that during that night he was getting aches and pains, he took Tylenol and was fine for a while week. The week after that, he started to get pins and needles all over his body, and itching. He states it did not want to go away. Sometimes it was better, sometimes it was worse. The doctor gave him antihistamines, but it did not go away. All the doctor's say they have never heard of it, no one knows what it was. He read some place that they have few cases like this. He was just trying to find out what he should do. He was itching all the time and got pins and needles. The antihistamine helps, but it comes back. It has been over a month now, almost 2 months. He asks what he should do. He had seen a cardiologist, urologist, and his regular doctor. In the beginning he had itchiness and pins and needles all the time, but now it was on and off. For example right now he did not have it but when he woke up this morning it was there. He tried different soaps and different shampoos, just in case that was it. He even took off some of the medications for a couple days to be sure it was one of them but no. He was almost 100% sure it was it, he never had this before. Started the night of the shot. It got a little better in the night. The next morning he took Tylenol and felt better and thought it was all over. It was then explained that it started again about a week or so later and now he has it all the time. Itchiness began a week or a week or a half. Then says it could have been 2 weeks later. The symptoms are on and off. For the aches and pains he took Tylenol and it went away. The doctor that prescribed Coreg said he never had anyone having trouble taking this medication with the vaccine. He never heard of that. That was the first thing he asked. Outcome of the event Aches and pains was recovered on 26Feb2021. Outcome of the other events was not recovered. No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information is expected

bent over to look up and almost blacked out; swimmy headedness was really more noticeable after second shot; sensation in equilibrium or vision or whatever; weakness; felt different/really knew something was wrong/something is not right; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). An 85-year-old male patient received the second dose of bnt162b2, via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Left arm on 09Feb2021 (Lot Number: EM9810) as single dose for covid-19 immunisation. The patient medical history and concomitant medications were not reported. The patient previously received the first dose of bnt162b2, at the age of 85-year-old, via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Left arm on 20Jan2021 (lot number: EL3302) as single dose for covid-19 immunization and experienced Vertigo, felt peculiar, nausea, dizziness/swimmy headed. The patient previously received the flu shot for immunization and experienced Sore arm. He is 85 and not familiar with all the goings on today but heard a report the other day and did not know there was such a thing as Vertigo. He thought that was just a movie. When he took the shot at (place name) in (county name) on 20Jan2021, soon thereafter, not that day but maybe next, he felt peculiar. It was just uneasiness and he did not feel right. That went on and on 09Feb2021, he got second shot and he got swimmy headed, but it has continued on since then and probably gotten worse, especially when he gets up in the morning. He has to hold on until he gets balanced or coordinated. It just doesn't seem right After he gets up and gets going, it is not as prevalent. But then sometimes it strikes him and he is just completely out of it. He later stated the peculiar feeling and swimmy headedness started the same day as the first injection, but he just did not really pay attention to it and thought it was just one of those things that you accept with getting older. Wife and he both went and he thought his feelings were merely from excitement or depletion or exhaustion. He felt like he had weakness and he just felt different. He got it at noon and waited for 15 minutes. Because of the events around him at the time, it did not register with him because it was the stress of driving 30 miles through expressway. Old people aren't used to driving that far. It got worse after the second shot and then he really knew something was wrong. When you are old, you have these feelings and pains and aches and all that stuff, and you just accept it as being old. It did not register with him until a couple of weeks ago when he heard it on TV about Vertigo and he said that is what he has. The swimmy headedness was really more noticeable after second shot, it brought it on stronger. He does not complain about things and thought it may just be getting old.

Patient presented to the ER on 2/3/2021 with a seizure 2 weeks after his Pfizer vaccination, and was found to have striking inflammatory lesions on MRI that we presume are related to inflammatory CAA. We placed him on steroids and his edema has resolved. He feels back to his baseline. We're uncertain to what degree the induction of an inflammatory response by the vaccine might have precipitated this event (of course it did not precipitate his CAA) but to be on the safe side, we stated that he should not get his second COVID vaccination.

Vaccine was administered on 1/12/21 at Memory Care. On 1/15/21 at 12:30 he developed slurred speech at his facility and slumped to his left side. Out of concern for stroke he was sent by ambulance to Hospital. There he was found to have no evidence of stroke on MRI or CT angiogram. He was admitted to the hospital due to fever and elevated inflammatory markers (ferritin, CRP) and transaminases. He was found to have a positive SARS-CoV-2 PCR and IgG. His symptoms resolved the following morning and may have represented a TIA. He had many markers consistent with COVID-19 and his CT pulmonary angiogram did show ground glass opacities but no pulmonary embolism. It was difficult to assess if this was a reinfection with COVID-19, persistent PCR positivity from November, or an adverse event to the vaccine.

right hand swelling, right knee swelling, right ankle swelling, facial swelling of left cheek Narrative: Following 1st COVID-19 vaccine dose on 12/17/20, patient seen at Emergency Department on 12/21/20- 12/22/20 for eval of new left cheek swelling and right hand/ankle swelling. Hand x-ray did not show signs of fracture, head CT did not show any signs of new strokes, and labs showed mild BNP elevation. Per ED note, "Based on the patient history, physical, and initial vital signs - the patient's initial presentation is concerning for heart failure/volume overload->pulmonary edema and bilateral pedal edema." He received ipratropium neb x1 and returned to facility. Neurology consulted (12/22/20), "It is difficult to determine whether the patient has a new facial palsy or whether this is recrudescence of his previous stroke deficits. Given the swelling of his left face it is quite possible that there is inflammation causing some partial left facial nerve dysfunction that would not include the forehead. The pattern of weakness is, however, also consistent with what would be expected from his documented right MCA stroke. At this point it is appropriate to consider this a possible complication of his vaccination (Bell's palsy has been reported in some after Covid19 vaccination). However, I would not recommend any specific treatment for the facial weakness as the etiology is still somewhat unclear." Patient admitted to hospital 1/2/21-1/8/21 for mild hypothermia with possible AMS and found to have adenovirus. Head CT negative for CVA. Sepsis/toxic/metabolic w/u was unrevealing. Given IVF for diarrhea; C diff negative. Discharged to facility. Patient received 2nd COVID-19 pfizer vaccine on 1/13/21 in Right Deltoid w/o complications (lot#: EK9231, exp. 04/30/2021)

He didn't think he can get any sicker. He did not do a report online, he tried to get onto the website but nothing told him how to do it or whatever, so he stayed on the line waiting to talk to someone. Height: he was five feet and nine and three quarters inches tall, he had shrunk with age, everyone got smaller. His arm was not sore for very much, he didn't remember how long, he got sick two weeks later, and now he was really not well, though he was better than he was on Thursday or Friday, though he was not 100% yet. He would like to know if he should get the second shot, because he was too old to die from a corona virus shot. Investigations: He didn't know which COVID test they used, they did an instant test with results in an hour. The patient inquiry if he should get the second shot since he had had this artificial sickness for 5-7 days, two weeks after getting the vaccine. He had "sore arm for a couple of days" after the 1st injection, but "nothing more". However, in the last 4-5 days, he's been feeling "miserable". He didn't have fever. But he's been experiencing aching, diarrhea, upset stomach, lost weights and nasal drip. He tested negative to the COVID virus. He has a doctor's appointment scheduled this Wednesday. The outcome of events was unknown.

On Sunday afternoon, March 14, I received the first dose of the Pfizer vaccination. On the morning of March 16 I had a sudden hit of fatigued and my left leg started going numb while doing some menial work in the yard, The numbness cleared when I went inside and laid down but some form of the fatigue persisted for several days. Then, on March 28, two weeks after the vaccine, I woke up to a leg severely swollen from toe to hip. I waited two days to see if it went down but it only got worse, swelling to double the size by volume. I went to the doctor and they sent me to the hospital for ultrasound, suspecting a blood clot. No blood clot was evident but there were multi swollen limp nodes in the upper leg area. The problem worsened and two days later I was sent in for a CTscan which now showed multi blood clots near the swollen limp nodes. I was barely able to walk as major pain persisted with no signs of decline. I am now on blood thinner. It has been 2 months since the vacination and my leg is still swollen the same amount (2X by volume).

slightly dizzy; pain in arm slightly; His head was still just a little foggy; Unrestful night; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 89-years-old male patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Solution for injection, Lot Number: EN5318), dose 1 intramuscular, administered in arm right (Injected into right shoulder in the muscle) on 10Feb2021 09:50 to 10Feb2021 09:50 (at the age of 89-years-old) as single dose for prevention (COVID-19 immunisation). Medical history included ongoing AFib (Diagnosed 7-10 years ago), sulfa allergy, ongoing to keep bowels soft and pliable, down from 210 lbs (he found out his wife had breast cancer, he lost the weight, prior receiving vaccine), bad ankles (uses a cane and walker and noticed he was having). Concomitant medications included warfarin at 5 mg daily (Started taking 7-10 years) for AFib; diltiazem hydrochloride at 180 mg daily (Started taking 2 years ago) for AFib and omeprazole at 20 mg daily (Taking for 7-10 years) to keep bowels soft and pliable and unspecified medication. They reported that he called Pfizer yesterday about the same question; however, today he would like to know if he can get a letter stating that it was permissible to get the vaccine 4 days short of the 21 days. Caller reports that he received first dose yesterday, and felt slightly dizzy afterwards and today he had pain in arm slightly Feb2021. Caller reports he had a sulfa allergy. Caller was scheduled for second dose on 27Feb2021. He received the first shot this morning. It went along nicely. He had two questions. He went back in to reschedule next appointment and the only thing they had available at (College name) was this month on 26Feb2021 or 27Feb2021, so he picked out the 25Feb2021, which he later stated was 26Feb2021. He had the shot this morning and it was only 15 days and he understands it was not supposed to be given until 21 days and wanted to know if that was true. His second question was after he had injection and he told them he was only allergic to Sulfa, they told him not to worry about it that there were so little problems with that. Before he got it, he had a sleepless night. He said he was old and he was worried about all kinds of things. He started talking to the guy the drove him over. He noticed he was a little dizzy and he probably could drive but should not. They dropped him off at his place and he was only one block away. When he got home, he drank some water and ate lunch and still feels a little bit out of it. He had a feeling if he got a good nights sleep, he would be fine. But, he wondered if it was related to the Sulfa allergy. He was down from 210 lbs. It just happened when he found out his wife had breast cancer that he lost the weight, which was prior to receiving the vaccine. She just passed away 6 weeks ago and had bone and breast cancer. He was bending and his back was starting to arch. He used to be 5' 11.5". That was before the vaccine. This has been happening for years. He has bad ankles and uses a cane and walker and noticed he was having more trouble right after he got the vaccine. Now, he was not having any more problems than usual. His head was still just a little foggy on 2021. When getting up, he stated he did not fall. He had a very unrestful night on 2021 and it could be related to that. He heard second dose should be 21 days and not 15 days. He provided on his vaccine card. They were having an influx of cases in his area and his wife and he had planned to get the vaccine as soon as they offered it. He said the reason he takes Omeprazole was his insides, all through his hose system, every once in a while he had some problems, and it started to bleed, so this was something to keep it soft and pliable. He was allergic to Sulfa. He does not have the name of medication, manufacturer, lot or expiration. The outcome of event slightly dizzy was recovering and other events was unknown.

numbness/ his right hand has gotten very numb at times; Began to hurt in his left hip; hand hurts; This is a spontaneous report from a Pfizer-sponsored program. A contactable male consumer reporting for himself. An 89-years old male patient received the first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID - 19 VACCINE, Solution for injection, Batch/lot number: EK9231, Expiration date: Not reported), via an unspecified route of administration in right arm on 09Jan2021 (at the age of 89-years old) as single dose for COVID-19 immunization. The patient medical history included left knee replacement in 2005, left hip replacement in 2006, and right hip replacement in 2012. His unspecified medications had not changed in a couple of years. The patient received the second dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID - 19 VACCINE, Solution for injection, Batch/lot number: EL9265, Expiration date: Not reported), via an unspecified route of administration in right arm on 30Jan2021 as single dose for covid-19 immunization. In mid Jan2021, the patient experienced "right hand has gotten very numb at times", " hand hurts" and "began to hurt in his left hip". The patient stated that he was not sure if he had been having a side effect from the Covid vaccine or not, but he got both doses on 09Jan2021 and 30Jan2021, respectively, both in his right arm. Since receiving the vaccine, he has had numbness in his hand mostly at night and if he raises it, it gets worse. He wanted to know if anyone else had reported this or not. The patient stated he did not think he had any problems with the Pfizer vaccine doses, but now he was going back, and he thought that maybe something triggered a problem that he was having. Both shots were administered into his right arm. After the first shot, his right hand had gotten very numb at times. The patient inquired whether anyone else had reported the same symptoms. He thought that this might or might not be related to the vaccine, or it could be something else, but he was not sure. The patient stated that his symptoms started after the first shot. He stated that he did not realize it at that time, but upon thinking back, he thought it could have been from the shot. He mentioned that he was 89 years old and would be 90 years old soon. He had his left knee replaced in 2005, left hip in 2006 and his right hip in 2012. Two weeks prior, his left leg, when sitting down at the table for breakfast, began to hurt in his left hip. He said this had been happening since then. He stated that for some reason, today it was not hurting at all. He hoped that it had resolved itself. He stated that all of his symptoms started in mid Jan2021. The patient was unsure if he had shrunk at all. He was not sure of the specific start dates of his symptoms. He just knew it started after the first dose, sometime in mid Jan2021. He did not make any correlation between the two at first. He took it as something was just wrong with his hand. He started that it happens more at night, when he is sleeping. If he wakes up the hand hurts and is numb. The worst phase was 2 weeks prior. Since then, it had started to improve. Regarding his "left hip hurting", he was unsure if it was still ongoing or what the outcome was. He knew that this morning it had not bothered him at all. The patient did not undergo any investigation or assessment. The outcome of the event right hand has gotten very numb at times and left hip hurt was recovered on an unspecified date in 2021. The outcome of the event hand hurts was recovering. Follow-up attempts are completed. No further information is expected.
