I've had a mild tinnitus for about 5-6 years. 6-7 days after my first Pfizer shot, my tinnitus has become very bad. In the last week, twice I was awakened by it in the middle of the night and was not able to fall back to sleep because it is so loud. In the past, I never heard it during the day, but now it is very loud even in the daytime. This is very serious. Not being able to sleep and rest at night is very hard to cope during the day. I'm not sure what to do as there is no cure for this tinnitus.

I experienced a very sudden and intense Gout flare up that caused and is still causing an unbearable swelling in my right foot and ankle. I have not had a flare up of this intensity and severity for over 12 years. My Gout has been successfully managed by Allopurinal for over 12 years and I have not experienced any significant events during this time. This time includes over 20,000 miles on my road bicycle and dozens of days over 100 miles. Never have I had a problem. Last Tuesday, I received the second dose of the Pfizer vaccine and I have yet to be able to walk or sleep through the night for six days and counting.

About 1 week following first Pfizer vaccination, I began having achiness in left leg and thought this was possibly from sitting in a chair without enough cushion. I simply could not get leg comfortable. Over a couple days duration the leg continued to be achy and slightly swollen. On December 23rd at night I awoke due to such discomfort in leg and could not get comfortable enough to go to sleep. I went to ED where I was examined and found to be mildly short of breath and in pain. Ultrasound of leg showed large upper leg DVT. CT of chest showed submassive Pulmonary Horseshoe Embolus. I was placed on Heparin and anticoagulated. Hospitalized for several days while anticoagulated and observed for any clot progression or respiratory distress and discharged home on Xarelto for anticoagulation and follow up with PCP, Hematology, Pulmonary medicine.

Prior to the vaccination I had slight Tinnitus on a scale of 1-10 I would say it was a 2. I had no trouble sleeping at night and did not use any sound machines to mask the tinnitus. I would characterize myself as a great sleeper. About 48 hours after the vaccination in my left ear my Tinnitus went from a 2 to a 5. Now to sleep I must run a fan or noise machine to mask the tinnitus and sometimes have to take benadryl or Tylenol PM to sleep.

Patient was a previously healthy 60 year old male who developed an acute change in mental status on 4/9/21 after first receiving the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine; he was ultimately diagnosed to have hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, and other underlying etiologies were ruled out (malignancy, infection, autoimmune disorders) and improved only after initiation of HLH-directed treatment with etoposide and dexamethasone. He is currently in remission. Patient was initially admitted in 4/2021 for fevers, night sweats, weight loss, and worsening altered mental status. Patient symptoms reportedly started in ~ 4/2021. Per patient's wife, there is a temporal correlation between the patient receiving the COVID-19 vaccine and his symptoms worsening. He was admitted in 4/2021 for stroke-like symptoms after his 1st dose and was diagnosed with a TIA. He was cleared to receive the 2nd dose of the COVID-19 vaccine (received on 4/25/21), and he reportedly became worse after this dose as well. He underwent an extensive workup over the last 2 months to further evaluate his symptoms. He was found to have mediastinal lymphadenopathy on imaging. He had an excisional biopsy of these LNs which were ultimately reactive in nature (negative for lymphoma). There was no evidence of a lymphoma or a lymphoproliferative disorder. Patient was ultimately readmitted to hospital on 5/17/21 due to worsening symptoms. His labs were notable for anemia/thrombocytopenia. A bone marrow biopsy and aspirate to rule out suspected lymphoma was performed and his labs/bone marrow were consistent with a diagnosis of HLH. He was found to meet 6/8 criteria (splenomegaly, peripheral blood cytopenias, elevated ferritin, hemophagocytosis noted on bone marrow, fevers, and elevated Soluble IL-2). The hope was to do a PET/CT and LP before starting therapy to rule out secondary causes of HLH. However, his clinical status continued to deteriorate before these tests could be performed and so he was ultimately started on Dexamethasone and Etoposide as per HLH protocol. These therapies were started on June 3rd. His mental status significantly improved once the medications were started. A PET/CT and LP on 6/7/21 were finally obtained ; however, both did not show overt evidence of an underlying trigger for HLH. "Prominent mediastinal, hilar, and RP LNs seen on previous imaging were not FDG-avid." It did show a few small, mildly FDG-avid patchy B/L pulmonary opacities which were likely infectious or inflammatory for which a follow-up CT Chest was recommended. The flow from the CSF was grossly unremarkable. CSF PCR and other viral studies were negative. Of note, it is uncertain at this juncture if these tests are negative because they are truly negative, or if they are possibly falsely negative since patient was started on treatment before they were obtained. Currently, patient's mental status has significantly improved with Dexamethasone and Etoposide. Per the HLH protocol (which is a scheduled over 8 weeks), patient was started on Dexamethasone 10mg/m2 (equates to 20mg daily) and Etoposide 150mg/m2 biweekly for the 1st 2 weeks. Pt received his 2 weeks of biweekly Etoposide while inpatient (6/3, 6/9, 6/11, and 6/15). The remaining Etoposide doses are to be given weekly and his next dose would be ideally due on 6/22/21 (today). He also completed his 14-day course of Dexamethasone 10mg/m2 on day of discharge (6/16/21). Pt was advised to reduce his Dexamethasone to 5mg/m2 (or 10mg daily) on 6/17. Of note, ID was contacted on day of discharge who recommends that patient be placed on PCP PPx while on HLH therapy. He was recommended to start Mepron on 6/17/21.

initial reactions for 5 days: sore arm, tiredness, fuzzy brain, fever, gastric distress. All of these would fluctuate in intensity and sometimes weren't noticeable at all, except the sore arm which started strong and gradually lessened and disappeared after 3 days. The real adverse reaction I've experienced and has actually been getting worse is a racing heart. It may have actually started in May but I simply thought I had gotten out shape. I really noticed it going uphill. But starting in July, especially the last two weeks, the racing from just a brisk walk on flat land. I have to stop and rest when I haven't really exerted myself. There's no rational explanation where this has suddenly come from, until I just googled and found that it's been a reaction for some to the vaccine.

left side will blur; Left side of face was sagging/ water leaking out of mouth/Progressive weakness on left side of face/ Swelling on lower left mandible/ diagnosed with Bell's Palsy.; Eye tearing; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable nurse who reported for himself. A 61-year-old male patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE; Batch/lot number: EK5780) in left arm on 26Dec2020 at 08:30 at single dose for covid-19 immunisation (worked in surgical ICU and was over 61 years old). Medical history included Pre-diabetic. Family history included: mother died; mother's side had colon cancer and grandparents and uncles had cardiovascular diseases.Concomitant medication included exenatide (BYDUREON), amlodipine besilate (NORVASC), omeprazole (PROTONIX), hydrochlorothiazide, lisinopril and pneumococcal vaccine on 08Dec2020 and tetanus vaccine on 08Dec2020. It was reported that on 31Dec2020 at 07:30, the patient had eye tearing and water leaking out of mouth, left side of face was sagging, swelling on lower left mandible (eye tearing was first, as reported); on 31Dec2020 he also experienced progressive weakness on left side of face; on 02Jan2021 the patient was diagnosed with Bell's Palsy. Then on an unknown date, left side will blur occurred. All events required emergency room visit and physician office visit. Diagnosis of Bell's Palsy and event eye tearing were serious per disability; left side will blur was non serious. Patient described the events as follows: on 31Dec2020 he was brushing teeth and noticed the water was going everywhere. Left side of face was sagging, noticed some swelling and thought it was from a bug bite. He wasn't sure if it was a stroke or not. In the morning of 01Jan2021 noticed it was progressively causing a problem. Days before noticed tearing of left eye (as reported). On 31Dec2020 before midnight, something felt wrong. He saw four cases on clinical trial with similar side effects (he clarified he had no patient information for the four patients mentioned with similar side effects from Pfizer Clinical trial. He saw this information from a article; stated four from Pfizer and Moderna). In the morning of 02Jan202, he went to Emergency Room (ER) and was diagnosed with Bells Palsy. He was given prednisone 20mg to take 3 times by mouth every day for 5 days, tetracycline 100mg, at 1 capsule by mouth twice a day for 10 days and methylprednisolone (SOLU MEDROL; Lot: 9945776;Exp: Nov2021) 4mg dose pack, started with 6 tablets first day. It was told by doctor it might cause tick problems. He was waiting for results. On 04Jan2021 went to family doctor and more blood work was taken. Because he was taking prednisone, noticed his sugar was up a little bit (date unspecified). It was prescribed Glitizide extended release, 2.5mg one tablet twice a day with breakfast. Patient was checking sugar every 6 hours. It was also prescribed Acyclovir 400mg one tablet orally five times per day for 10 days. 08Jan2021 is last day of prednisone 5 day dose and will follow up with methylprednisolone tablets. Patient had an appointment with a neurologist on 13Jan2021. Patient was still having symptoms. It was really hard for him. Not hard to swallow. Face was still drooping. Eyes were still tearing. Could not work with eyes tearing all of the time. Needed to be alert. When driving, had to focus on the right side because his left side will blur. He had to chew only on the right side because food will be left behind in between his cheeks and gums. If he drank through a straw, he had to cover the left side of his lips so he was able to suck out fluids. He thought symptoms were progressively getting worse, he didn't see much improvement. He clarified swelling was on lower part of mandible on left side. It was slightly bigger than right. When looking at face, the lines on his forehead on the left side were down. If he smiled he cannot raise his left eye brow, when before the COVID-19 vaccine he could. Noticed left side of nose was lower than the right. Cannot raise left side of lips. Outcome of the event Eyes tearing and Bell's Palsy was not recovered; outcome of the other event was unknown. Information on the batch number has been requested.; Sender's Comments: Based on available information, a possible contributory role of the subject product, BNT162B2 vaccine, cannot be excluded for the reported events of Bell's palsy, Lacrimation increased and vision blurred due to temporal relationship. However, the Bell's palsy may likely possibly represent concurrent medical condition in this patient. There is limited information provided in this report. Additional information is needed to better assess the case, including complete medical history, diagnostics including head CT/MRI and viral serologies, counteractive treatment measures and concomitant medications. This case will be reassessed once additional information is available. 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.

4/7/2021 @ noontime: Began to have cold shakes. Approximately 15 minutes later, began to experience slight headache and some fatigue. Within an hour, extreme shaking, fatigue and worse headache ever experienced in my life. Went to bed, covered up and tried to rest, but headache was too severe. About 6:00pm, took ibuprofen and headache began to subside, but too weak to walk without holding onto support items. Nausea left me unable to eat and drinking water was unpleasant. Fell asleep about 10pm and woke at midnight with cold shakes and did not get back to sleep. Went to work next morning and just felt somewhat fatigue and had no appetite.

About two weeks after the 1st shot I noticed my facial skin was very itchy. This was a constant thing. Two days after I had the shot shot my face swoll up and was very itchy. I was waking up in the middle of the night several times a night because of the itches and I was going my best no to scratch. i rubbed moisturizer in to my face and later started using some over the counter itching creams that would work for a few hours. I began to realize the itching was worse in places where I had five years ago had Bellafill infected into acne scars and deep wrinkles by a licensed cosmetic surgeon. I like the results and have no issue with the doctor or filler, but this stuff itched terribly. I see on the internet some complaints from others, but I wanted to report that I too have this. As of today, weeks later, it is not as bad, but as I write this I want to itch a place above my right cheek bone that was injected with Bellafill. I thought it was a problem with the Bellafill, I am convinced now it is a side effect of the vaccine. Guess this means it is working to adopt to odd things in my body.

After receiving my shot around 4:00 pm on April 13, 2021, I was restless and did not sleep well that night. When I woke up on April 14, I was tired but otherwise felt fine except my arm was a bit sore. However, after working at home for a couple of hours, shortly before 10:00 am I began to feel nauseous. I rushed to the bathroom thinking I was going to throw up, and almost immediately fainted. My wife and sons found me on the floor and woke me up. I threw up shortly after and felt pretty lousy the rest of the day with low grade fever, chills, body aches, fatigue, and a headache. I began to feel better at night and had a good night of sleep. Today (April 15), I feel fine except I'm a little tired.

I had no ill reaction-no swelling, no redness, no fever, no trouble breathing at all. By next morning, my Parkinson's symptoms, overall weakness, "frozen foot" and (left) foot-turned-in-bent-at-ankle, resulting in my needing assistance to walk, get up out of chairs, use the bathroom, worse than I had experienced prior. Normally I have much relief with Rytary, Carbidopa-Levodopa, and deep brain stimulator, but nothing helped. I'm now at 65-70% of where I had been. While I can't say with certainty that my medication failure resulted from the vaccine, I have no other explanation. I would rather risk whatever one vaccine has done for me against COVID, than go through this again, or worse!

Since the vaccination, patient has not been tested for COVID-19. No other vaccine in four weeks. The patient felt fine following the 2nd shot, for 48 hours on 18Apr2021, but unusually tired so he knew it must had been the shot. The next day on 19Apr2021 his sinuses became burning and he assumed it was hay fever because he had experienced some symptoms of that for the previous two weeks. But the next day on 20Apr2021, Tuesday, it was worst, like a bad cold (which all of this "reaction" may had been), but then the next 3 days he could barely get out of bed and that's unusual because he run every day and nothing stops him, including a cold. he had bad headaches on 19Apr2021 for 5 days or so and symptoms included coughing, from a dry cough at first that Wednesday to a very wet cough and very large thick solid segments of gelled mucous coming out of his sinuses, something he had never seen before. After almost two weeks he felt better but was still coughing, and now three weeks later he was still really tired, could not think as tightly as usual on 19Apr2021. His doctor's office told him not to come in, just to take pain reliever and cough syrup, which he was doing anyway. Test was neg. The adverse event result in doctor or other healthcare professional office/clinic visit. No covid prior vaccination. The patient underwent lab tests included covid test (Nasal Swab): negative on 24Apr2021. The outcome of events could not think as tightly as usual on 19Apr2021, sinuses became burning, bad cold, bad headaches and very large thick solid segments of gelled mucous coming out of my sinuses was recovered and other events was not recovered.

blood pressure had dropped a lot/blood pressure dropped a good deal; his heart rate was 30 beats per minute; Not feeling well; Sore arm; felt strange; his bone spur in his heel quit bothering him immediately/he can walk long distance/he would get that real soreness or pulling after a walk and that kind of stopped; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 61-year-old male patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in the left arm, on 09Apr2021 (lot number: EW0158), as 1st dose, single, for COVID-19 immunization, at a clinic. Medical history included high cholesterol (controlled with diet); bone spur in left heel (bone spur in his left heel began coming on gradually, probably for 10 or 12 years) which has gotten little worse and made it hard for him to walk in the evening, in long distances, it was like a knife in his heel and he would get that real soreness and pulling after a walk; and allergy to sulfa drugs, more specifically sulfa antibiotics (he was given them 25 years ago and had a reaction). The patient has not had any vaccines or shots for years. He reported that he is very healthy and has not had the flu or anything in 25 years. The patient does not smoke and is careful with what he eats. There were no concomitant medications. On 09Apr2021, within minutes of receiving the first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, the patient was not feeling well, he felt strange. He wondered if it was his imagination or if something was going on. Then it got worse and worse within 12-15 minutes after the COVID-19 vaccine. The staff member sent paramedics over to him. The paramedics set him up with a blood pressure cuff and heart monitor. Apparently, his blood pressure dropped a lot/dropped a good deal and his heart rate went to 30 beats per minute. His heart rate is normally around 65 beats per minute. The paramedics informed him that if his blood pressure and heart rate didn't come up, he was going to have to go to the hospital. The paramedics instructed him to stand up and it seemed to bring his blood pressure and heart rate back up to normal. The patient reported that everything returned to normal within a 15-20-minute time frame. He was then able to leave the vaccination facility. His health care provider advised him not to take the second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. His physician informed him that he could possibly go into cardiac arrest. The patient did not have any problems after that other than a sore arm later in the day on 09Apr2021. His arm was sore for a day or two. The patient stated that this was the only effect after the incident in the vaccination facility. The patient also reported that on the weekend after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine, in Apr2021, he can walk long distance and his bone spur in his heel quit bothering him immediately. He reported that if he walks a mile and back, it quit the hurt. He reported that he would get that real soreness or pulling after a walk and that kind of stopped. The patient thought this was really strange. The patient reported that he cancelled the appointment for the second dose and did not get it. He was a little apprehensive about the second dose of as he didn't know if his reaction would be worse. The patient asked if the vaccine is 80% effective after one dose, if Pfizer has heard of that type of reaction from others, if his reaction was rare, and if he should get the second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. He mentioned that he would like to have a second dose of the Covid-19 vaccine, but he is afraid to get it because he doesn't want to go into cardiac arrest. The patient recovered from "blood pressure had dropped a lot/blood pressure dropped a good deal", "his heart rate was 30 beats per minute", not feeling well and felt strange on 09Apr2021, and from sore arm in Apr2021. The outcome of "his bone spur in his heel quit bothering him immediately/he can walk long distance/he would get that real soreness or pulling after a walk and that kind of stopped" was not recovered. No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information is expected.

I had a stroke on April 30, 2021, 10 days after the second dose of Pfizer on April 20, 2021. The stroke was the result of a blood clot. I've never had blood clots until I subjected my perfectly healthy body to the Covid vaccination. On the morning of April 30, 2021, I was suddenly overcome with a sense of disorientation and dizziness. Spouse drove me to the ER. They discovered I had experienced a stroke. Let me be absolutely clear. The Pfizer vaccine is the sole reason I developed blood clots and had a stroke. I was perfectly healthy until I got vaccinated. I now have brain fog, dizziness, and every day is a challenge. I feel so dumb for falling for the get vaccinated garbage.

I was immediately confused about where I was at, when leaving the vaccination site. I immediately felt flush with red splotches on my face. I came home and took a nap just to sleep it off. I woke up with severe tinnitus, a headache, and brain fog. Both the tinnitus and headaches have only gotten worse. The flush feeling, (suspecting higher blood pressure than usual), comes and goes with more frequency as time goes by. The ?brain fog? has been more like brain damage. At first, I just couldn?t think. My ability to think has slowly improved, but it is no where near the same as my abilities prior to the vaccine. My memory has been impaired, both long term and short term. My hand/eye coordination has been impaired. Prior to the vaccine, I didn?t feel my age. After the vaccine I felt like I aged 25 years in a week. I need to figure out what is going on inside my head, and what can be done about it. The degeneration is a serious concern. Both in the severity of the adverse reactions, and in the permanence of the damage. This will be devastating if I?m entering early stages of dementia, decades before the course of natural causes of aging.

Developed tinnitus in both ears.; Had trouble sleeping the past few weeks but am sleeping better; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer, the patient. A 61-year-old male patient received the first dose of BNT162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE; Lot Number: UNKNOWN) in the arm right on 12Mar2021 at 20:00 (at the age of 61-years-old) and second dose of BNT162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE; Lot Number: UNKNOWN) in the arm right on 02Apr2021 at 17:15 (at the age of 61-years-old) as a single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included cholesterol and blood pressure high. Concomitant medications included atorvastatin calcium (LIPITOR) 40mg and amlodipine (MANUFACTURER UNKNOWN) 5mg from an unknown date.

A 62-year-old male patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE; Lot Number and Expiration Date were not reported), intramuscular in left deltoid, on 30Dec2020 10:30, at a single dose, for COVID-19 immunization. The patient's medical history included ongoing mild intraocular pressure. The patient's concomitant medication included unspecified eye drops for a mild intraocular pressure. The patient previously took tetanus vaccine and experienced vagal reaction and passed out (in his childhood). The patient's past COVID tests were always negative. On 30Dec2020, the patient received it at a facility where he is a physician on staff, and they started giving it that day. It was administered by a pharmacist who was very clean and professional, and everything was fine. The patient received the COVID-19 vaccine in the left deltoid and felt pinched when the vaccine was administered, and he felt fine. He did not have any immediate reaction. He sat down, then got up and was standing talking to some colleagues, and about 10 to 15 minutes later, they were talking and felt a little postnasal drip in throat. His colleagues said that is what they felt as well. About 10 minutes later, the patient was feeling warm then really hot to the point where he felt the need for cool air. He added feeling weak and clammy as if he was going to pass out. He started to feel weak and warm and almost like a vagal reaction if you got a needle or were scared. It was almost like he felt hot, sweaty, and weak and feeling like he needed to get to a cool place and sit down. The patient's heart might have been beating fast, but he did not check his pulse. The patient went outside where the temperature was in the thirties and cold. The patient broke out in sweat and felt weak. The patient sat down, and it was cold outside, and he felt better. It passed and he felt fine after that. The symptoms lasted 10-15 minutes top, and it was resolved after the peak. The patient had soreness at the muscle site which got better overnight; little muscle soreness from the vaccine. The patient then got better and felt no other symptoms. He looked up the side effects and talked to the pharmacist. He spoke with a pharmacist, who provided the information on the reported adverse reaction of the COVID-19 vaccines and the signs of a severe allergic reaction included in the PI. He is not an allergic type person. He is familiar with those reactions and never had any trouble. He wasn't quite sure if it was related but then said it is probably somewhat related. The patient explained that he doesn't have any of the reported adverse reactions in the PI; but his experience is like the dizziness related in the signs of a severe allergic reaction in the PI, and he did feel that his heartbeat was fast. He is fine now though. The patient asked if his event is related to the vaccine and what is the impact on getting the second dose when reacting to the first. The patient was thinking that this event is a vagal reaction but delayed. He also explained that he was speaking with his colleagues, right after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine, regarding postnasal drip reaction. The patient also wondered if anxiety related to this discussion could have triggered his symptoms. Originally, he thought it was just him. But after talking to colleagues, maybe he was just a little anxious. He did not feel anxious going in. He did not need any intervention. He did not take any diphenhydramine hydrochloride (BENADRYL) or anything. He sat and rested, and it passed. He has been fine since. He needs a second dose in 3 weeks. There is not a lot of information about the side effects. It was not like he got a rash. He did not have any swelling of the tongue or throat. He just wanted to find out about if he should get the second dose. He really wanted to get the second dose. He just wanted to know if this was common or a concern and should he take the second dose. There were a lot of people getting the vaccine and this was not anything that stopped anyone from getting it. He is just trying to make sure and see how likely it was that it was related to the vaccine and how does it affect him getting the second dose. The patient was recovering from "Felt pinched when the vaccine was administered; soreness at the muscle site; little muscle soreness from the vaccine". The outcome of "Postnasal drip in throat" and "Anxiety; anxious" was unknown. The patient recovered from the other events on 30Dec2020. Information about lot number and expiration date for the suspect product will be requested in follow-up attempts.

Pt had some amazing hallucinations and was actively communicating while I believe he was asleep. He called me on the phone and his voice was slurred and he thought he was being held down by some things that were flying around. I was able to direct him to sit up after ensuring him that he wasn't being held down and eventually get him to walk to the bathroom, turn on the light and look in the mirror and describe to me what he saw (he lives at a different address than I do). By this time, he had "woken" up and his voice was no longer slurred and he was "making sense". My concern was that he had had a stroke or Bell's palsy or something. He was fine and slept well the rest of the night. I will bring him to my home after his second shot just in case this happens again. He hallucinated after his anti-anxiety medications for the first couple of weeks and to a more minor amount with his other medications, again for the first couple of weeks. I am assuming that his brain reacted to the vaccine with hallucinations but I don't know. This may be nothing or it may be something that other patients are experiencing, who the heck knows.

Medical history included anxiety. Concomitant medications included antidepressants. The patient received his first dose of Pfizer COVID vaccine last 14Jan2021 at 3pm, and everything went well. When he left the place, he had a slight headache. He had to stay there for 15-20 minutes to make sure he had no reaction. He just got a little lightheaded, he didn't think much, and it didn't get worse. The patient took 2 paracetamol (TYLENOL) and forgot about it. It went away for a while. He took the shot at 3 pm and he took paracetamol at 4 pm. Later that night, about 10 pm, everything kicked in. He was sick again at 10:30 pm, or so, the headache was gone for several hours. He was ok between 4 pm and 10 pm. Then about 10 to 10:30 pm, when he went to go to sleep, his heart started racing, like he was having a panic attack, then he started getting hot flashes, sweating, chills, and aching, and this went all night from like 10 pm to 11 to the next morning. He had a doctor's appointment to get his knee examined for an upcoming knee surgery. The patient clarified that he didn't go to the doctor because of the symptoms, he went for his knee. He asked the doctor, before getting examined, and the doctor said he got off easy, as the doctor himself was sick for 3 days. The patient asked the doctor if he could take something to calm down, as his blood pressure was high on 15Jan2021 at 8 am. They had taken his blood pressure to examine his knee, and the doctor said it was alright. He was prescribed with alprazolam (XANAX), and the doctor said it would be fine. The next day, he was tired from the night before. He had no symptoms the next day. After he took alprazolam, he slept fine, he felt better. The hot flashes, heart racing, body aches, and chills were gone, and he read everything as far as symptoms. The heart racing went away about 11 the next morning because he took alprazolam. The patient stated that he forgot to add one more, he had all the symptoms described as side effects, but he also had itching. He had very mild itching and was given cetirizine hydrochloride (ZYRTEC, lot number: OHE2723, expiry date: Feb2022, UPC: 4122053077), it was like 80% gone. Every now and again he has a little itch, but it was bothering him all night that first night. Currently, the patient felt pretty good. He has no symptoms other than the slight itch. He further stated that his second dose is on 04Feb2021. Out of all symptoms, the thing that freaked him out the most was the heart racing, he asked if he could take diphenhydramine hydrochloride (BENADRYL) before the shot. He has been on antidepressants for a while, he has a lot of anxiety, but the day he went in, he felt good, and didn't take alprazolam. He also asked if this have triggered all that heart racing stuff. He was seeking for information if there was anything to do to prepare him better, he knew you have to sit there for 15-20 minutes to see if there was a reaction. The outcome of the event headache and lightheadedness was recovered on 14Jan2021, unknown for blood pressure high and tiredness, recovering for itchy, and recovered on 15Jan2021 at 11 am for all other events.

Initially, the first day as with the first dose, my left arm ached but this time it lingered for about 4 days. I was working a job that requires heavy lifting and at first thought it was the work, but after not working at all for about 3 days, my body would start aching all over. This is approximately 10 days after my second dose of Phizer. My bones ached, sort of like getting the flu. Late in the afternoons is when this pain would begin and by 7-8 at night, all I wanted to do was sleep. Each day, when waking most all the aching would be gone only to start up again about the same time in the afternoon/early evening. Last night, I went to bed about 7 pm and slept up until 6 am. As I am writing this, the aching is beginning in my arms again and I have tons of tiredness. It is 4:25 pm. and day 12 after the 2nd dose of Phizer.

I was able to sleep that night because the twitches had greatly subsided. I still have frequent but light twitches .

Soreness on the around the shot site; Severe arm pain up where the rotator cuff is; Severe arm pain up where the rotator cuff is; Has not slept due to pain; cannot sleep, the pain wakes him up; Could not use his arm; 50% deficit with the use of his left arm; After the vaccine, he could not lift his arm above his mid face level; Burning and tingling down the left arm; went to his hand and fingertips and progressed to the whole left side of his body including his rib line, hip, leg, and foot; Burning and tingling down the left arm; went to his hand and fingertips and progressed to the whole left side of his body including his rib line, hip, leg, and foot; Nauseous; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient who is a retired paramedic). A 62-year-old male patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE; Lot Number: ER8732), via an unspecified route of administration in left arm, on 30Mar2021 at 01:00 PM (13:00), as first dose, single, for COVID-19 immunization. The patient's medical history included bipolar depression from probably 10 years ago (2011) and ongoing, torn rotator cuff (15 to 20 years ago), and food poisoning in mid-Aug2020 (maybe it was more than that; may get tested to see if he ever had COVID-19). The patient's concomitant medication included vilazodone hydrochloride (VIIBRYD) from 2017 and ongoing (for at least four years) for bipolar depression. The patient has no known allergies. The patient was one of those people who doesn't get sick and he doesn't normally get the flu shot and everyone told him to get this Pfizer vaccine. The patient was not panicking but got the first dose of the Pfizer Vaccine on Tuesday (30Mar2021) around 01:00 PM and saw some things about having soreness on the around the shot site and all of that from that night (30Mar2021). This is going on for three days (from 30Mar2021) with severe arm pain up where the rotator cuff is; if you ever have pulled a rotator cuff it feels like that and he has not slept in almost 3 days due to pain from 30Mar2021. The pain is severe at times that it makes him nauseous (Mar2021). He figured the soreness was normal and later in the evening on 30Mar2021, the pain became an issue when he tried to go to bed that evening. Since the first two nights compared to last night, the soreness is actually improved; every time he tries to sleep with pain as a factor it is not easy. The patient can feel throbbing with his heartbeat and with the circulation there is throbbing pain. The pain was terrible and was throbbing like his heartbeat and similar to like a shoulder rotator cuff injury. For the first two days, on Tuesday (30Mar2021) and Wednesday (31Mar2021) after the vaccine, he could not use his arm or lift his arm above his mid face level. According to the patient, it was like a rotator cuff and he had a torn rotator cuff 15 to 20 years ago and this is the same arm that his torn rotator cuff occurred in; this is very painful and he is comparing it to the torn rotator cuff. In Mar2021, the patient had burning and tingling down the left arm and 3 days no sleep because the pain is worse at night. During the last week (Mar2021), his left leg down to his foot is also tingling and burning. The patient's primary care physician just retired, and he is in the process of finding a new one. The patient had no treatment or physician or emergency room (ER) visit for the reported events because being in the ER field, he can tell right now that it would be a waste of time of the effort to go into the ER as they would do nothing but tell him to take paracetamol (TYLENOL) and that is it. The patient did not like to take paracetamol and hates taking paracetamol. The patient clarified it is generic acetaminophen extra strength (Strength: 500 mg; Lot Number: P119682, Expiration Date: Mar2022, UPC Number: 5084417594) that he has taken (maybe every 6 hours oral) and it does relieve the pain so that is only so good. He does not know if in motion of the course of the day, something happened because at night laying still in bed is when he has pain. The patient did a lot of research before he made this call and the severity of the pain is enough to actually keep him awake for three days. He thought it was severe pain; maybe he should have told them to administer the vaccine in his right arm, but it was administered into his left arm. The only reason he made this call was because he wanted someone to know what he was having which could be just completely normal and he is sure every reaction is different and he expected the soreness because he remembers as a kid having shots. Also, this level of pain he is experiencing is what he wanted to report; imagine having himself going three days without a full night of sleep and he wanted to report this to make sure Pfizer knew this if they were keeping track of numbers of how many people have a similar pain level. The patient also asked if there were other people who called and reported these symptoms and if there is any information or treatment recommendations. As of 08Apr2021, even up to five days after getting the shot, now going on seven days that he has had some pretty severe reactions. The patient called in after 3 nights of getting no sleep. The patient was calling today to see if someone was ever going to call him back and asking will there be a follow up call from someone to see if he's still alive. The patient had some pretty severe reactions and they have actually gotten worse. There also have been new developments. The patient had pain in his arm that pulses along with his heart rate. It is so bad that it kept him up for 3 nights and still wakes him up at night. The pulsing pain in his arm started on the first night and has gradually gotten worse. The pain in the arm that is enough that it keeps him awake at night only starts getting severe when he goes to bed. He has tried sleeping in an upright position and he has tried everything, and nothing seems to alleviate it. The patient took generic acetaminophen which did not work during his last phone call. The patient also tried naproxen sodium (ALEVE) and that doesn't work wither. It was absolutely debilitating at times to where he has a 50% deficit with the use of his left arm (Mar2021). The patient initially reported burning and tingling sensation that was on his left arm and went to his hand and fingertips but now it has progressed to the whole left side of his body including his rib line, hip, leg, and foot. He is a retired paramedic and is pretty sure he is not having a long stroke. The patient feels it is too long to have symptoms from a shot he got. The patient has a lot of friends in the medical field and he's been told even going to a primary care physician, it is kind of gray area when it comes to dealing with COVID-19 vaccines. The patient was having second thoughts about getting the second shot. He had been told he can take NSAIDS over the counter for pain which has not helped him; there is no protocol for diagnosing or treating anything that happens from the shot. People in the medical field have told him there is thin line now to treat side effects because of liability; some doctors won't even get into it, just refer to Pfizer because medical insurance will not cover any services related to COVID-19 vaccine reactions. The patient continues to explain that is why the federal government is the only one that owns the shot due to liability. The patient's main concern is calling and reporting and maybe getting some help in deciding whether or not to get the second dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. In his opinion, that is too long to have pain that he cannot sleep, the pain wakes him up. This all happened along with the shot, the same night and there are times where he can't work due to it. The patient asks if anyone is concerned with it and will someone feel bad because he doesn't get the second shot. His main concern is that people are underscoring or even lying about side effects, stating he can't believe he is an isolated case. The patient continued to ask if this is something he's stuck with, or if it is something he would have to deal with from now on from getting this shot. The patient regrets getting the first shot and stated that if he knew then what he would be going through now, he wouldn't have got it. The patient has no sort of history of being a hypochondriac and the feelings he is going through right now are sensations that he has never felt in his life. The patient continues to explain he doesn't even know how to categorize it other than mentally relating it to the shot since it all occurred in line with Mar2021 getting the shot. The patient further commented that if he ran a call with an ambulance right now with a patient telling him what i he was telling the company, he wouldn't even know what to do with them other than getting them comfortable and to a hospital. The patient had not recovered from "Soreness on the around the shot site", "Severe arm pain up where the rotator cuff is", and " Has not slept due to pain; cannot sleep, the pain wakes him up". The outcome of the other events was unknown.

The AFIB occurred around May 5th and it was continuous almost the whole month of May. Shortness of breath, tiredness and interference with my daily interactions. I would get tired about 30 minutes of anything. Whatever the medical term is for when you get tired easily, shortness of breath etc. Just basic AFIB symptoms. The Dr gave me Solital 2x per day and as soon as he did that, within two days the AFIB went away. He took away my blood pressure medication and gave me the Solital. But I still get tired easier than I did before.

A 63-year-old male patient received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE; Solution for injection; Lot Number: Not Reported), via an unspecified route of administration on Arm Right on 18Mar2021 at single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included spinal injury, an infection in his scrotum, some neurogenic things, white blood cells (his white blood cells and scrotum started prior to him getting the vaccine). There were no concomitant medications. It was reported that, the consumer stated, "my wife and me went to hospital and we got a COVID vaccine first one, we had some, my wife had terrible side effects, I am crippled, and I had not it before in Mar2021, she is ok, but she is just sick, I am sick, but she is very sick and she got bad stuffs (rash)." Caller states that both him and his wife were having some side effects, although his wife was having the worse trouble. Caller states that last night, him and his wife were up all night. Caller was up because his wife was up so sick. Caller states that both him and his wife are sick and disabled, that is why they got the shot. Caller reports that he is retired and disabled because he got hurt at work. Caller states that what he is experiencing, is he just feels bad on 18Mar2021. Caller states that he did previously go to a doctor to do a blood study, the doctor is looking for blood diseases or cancer in the caller, and caller thinks that taking the COVID shot just exposed his weak spots. Caller reports that both him and his wife have body aches. Caller was wondering if there was anything, he can go get over the counter at the pharmacy to help. Caller reports that he cannot call his doctor, because they are all out on Fridays. Caller states that him and his wife are not planning to take the second dose of the product. Caller states that they have a lot of hurricanes where they live. Their house got tore up in one, and they sold it to one of their sons, and the caller and his wife moved out to their beach house for a while. He had an infection in his scrotum, something stung him, and that is what the doctors are looking for in him now, because his white blood cell count is high, and he has a rash on his scrotum in Mar2021. It was infected. Caller states that this infection in his scrotum has flared back up since getting the COVID vaccine yesterday, so caller had thought it went away but he guesses it never went away. Caller confirms that the issues with his white blood cells and scrotum started prior to him getting the vaccine, but the caller thinks that the vaccine was exposing the caller's weak spots, and maybe that is a god send because it is all flared up now, and the caller will be able to tell his doctor that. Caller states that he has been getting high white blood cell count readings since the stuff with his scrotum first started, and that is why his doctor sent him to an Oncologist for all this blood testing, so maybe this will be a b lessing in disguise for the caller, in finding out what is wrong with him. The outcome of the events was reported as unknown. Information about lot/batch number has been requested.

Got a little better every day until it was hard to see any a week later. Momentary dizziness, also the next day, like a three second flash, when rising from laying flat, laying flat from standing or sitting, or rolling over while laying down. Passes and I can sleep and not notice it unless I am awake enough, and cognizant enough, to notice it when I roll over. Once standing and moving about there is no problem except a feeling, I have seen described as brain fog, of being a little off mentally. Not sharp, but no dizziness. Can maintain normal activity that includes bending over, kneeling down, driving and riding in a car without any dizziness. Have tried eply maneuver, something I can do, but have not had any improvement. Brain fog seems to improve with normal daily movement and I have been trying to avoid my normal caffeine intake.

Around 330 on 4/6, I started feeling bad and arrived home around 530pm and had a slight Temperature (99) with hearing loss in both ears. But the right one had complete hearing loss. Thinking it would be a short term side effect, but realizing on Thursday am with was not, I called my physician office on Thursday and they called back on Thursday for a Friday 9am appt with the PA. She said it was sinus related , fluid in the ears was pushing the ear drum back and gave me a prescription for Fluticasone and to take my Zyretx and Sudafed. Call her in a week if symptoms did not away. On 4/12/21, I still have massive hearing loss and pain, so called a ENT for an appt and received a 1:15pm on the same day. This was the first day I had balance issues.

First: April 25~27: Sore Arm, similar to a bruised muscle. Second: April 27 my right forehead just below the hairline and in the right ear area where the top of the ear meets the head, had minor itching and were turning red. On April 28. Hives began on my left arm's lower wrist and in the general area of my right leg's knee. The hives became more numerous in these areas until a general red rash condition was appearing between them as well. By Saturday Morning May 1 the knee and wrist areas were noticeably red like a rash and hives were also appearing with itching below the right knee on the upper half of my shin, above this knee, on my right lower wrist and on my left lower fore arm. My right ear was starting to swell at just the top. I tried putting Gold Bond Medicated Powder on these areas, but it didn't reduce the itching much. Sunday May 2, I called my mom who is a Registered Nurse about this. She advised going to my health care provider to substantiate these symptoms. Monday May 3 I visited my health care provider's office after work and got an appointment for Tuesday at 10:15 from a cancellation. One of their RN's looked at my hives and rashes. New hives had now also formed on my left leg just below the knee on the back side. It was a red string of itching a couple inches long. I called my boss Tuesday so I could take the day off for the appointment and he agreed that I should do this. At the doctor's office, PA-C after extensive questioning and examination said he thought this was an allergic reaction possibly related to the polyethylene content of the vaccination. He further advised that I not get the second shot until I was checked by an allergist. He put in a referral for this. I think I picked up cold-like symptoms (sore throat and cough) from the doctor's office that were minor. Wednesday morning I had much worse symptoms. I was weak, groggy, couldn't think without great effort, was more itchy, and my right knee was starting to ooze. I called my boss at work to take the day off since I was quite sure driving would be risky, and that I would have to leave work early for lack of energy. My right front thigh had a new area of hives along with my right and left fore arms. I started treating all my affected areas with Caladryl topical Analgesic and taking generic Benedryl. I had breakfast and then slept until 2:30 PM, had lunch and slept until evening. By then my forehead and right ear areas had reduced in severity. I had lost (2) days of work. The rest of the week, all my symptoms diminished. As of this writing Sunday May 9, my knee is still tender, sore, and red, and left wrist hives are still pronounced.

Received first vaccine on 3/17/2021 - had mild shoulder pain. Received 2nd dose on 4/6/2021. After second dose I have had severe shoulder pain - both shoulder and mild hip pain on both sides. The shoulder pain is severe enough that I can't put on my own shirt, coat and trouble with putting on socks due to shoulders leaning forward. Shoulder pain is in the area where shoulder and upper arm connect. I saw a internal medicine physician on 5/7 and he is sending me to sports medicine physicians 5/14 - my pain is not due to an injury, it was mild after first vaccine but has been severe after 2nd vaccine. I am taking no medication besides Aleve before bed but in pain while sleeping and when I get up. Pain is constant when moving shoulder or hips. If I drive for more then 1 hour, my hips are in pain and I need to get out of car and walk around.

He got his vaccine, immediately had dizziness. Within 30 minutes could not move real good due to the Parkinson's. He got more confused, more dizzy, and worsening of his Parkinson's. He was very thirsty and drank a lot of water (4 liters of bottled water). He was then urinating and sweating a lot as a way of his body trying to get rid of something in his body. He was urinating more than he normally does. He started getting harder for him to breath. He noticed he had a bad taste in his mouth similar to when he had the COVID virus. He got a horrible splitting headache/migraine type that kept coming and going. He still has the taste in his mouth, and it affected the taste of food. These were all symptoms similar to when he had COVID. The headache was worse than when he had the virus. No appetite still, but still continuing to drink the water and not urinating like you did the first day and a half. He is not having to drink as much as he did before and not feeling like he was dehydrating. Does have the soreness from the vaccine or any rashes. He did have chills and low grade fever of about 100-101, which have resolved. He also had a sore throat which he still has. He had a very bad case of the COVID virus 3/1/21, which lasted for a week or two. He still has some residual symptoms from the virus with balancing/dizziness or worsening of his Parkinson's disease. His neurologist told him that he would recover from the cognitive effects from the COVID with his Parkinson's, but his motor skills may not return.

On 04/22/2021, a patient was determined to have pericarditis, possibly secondary to COVID-19 vaccination. The patient received his first COVID-19 vaccination (Pfizer) on 2/27/2021. The patient reported feeling poorly and presented to ER on 03/02/2021 with chest pain and dyspnea. He states the chest pain he is experienced this week is similar to the 2 episodes of chest pain he had after each of the two-step Pfizer COVID vaccination that he received in February 02/27/2021 and March 03/15/2021. He underwent a stress test on 03/11/2021 which did not show any reversible perfusion defects. Of note, the patient had COVID-19 back in October 2020 which manifested with night sweats, malaise for a few days and then cleared completely without any "long hauler" symptoms. The patient was treated with ibuprofen and colchicine. I did not find any evidence suggesting a relationship between pericarditis and covid-19 vaccination. In clinical trials, pericarditis was not statistically significantly different between treatment arms. Other potential causes of pericarditis include atrial fibrillation.

He got his vaccine, he had the localized pain for a day or two. Then about the 3rd day he noticed the pain was still there and when he holds the phone for a long time talking he starts feeling the pain. Also when he's laying down on the left arm after a while it starts hurting and he has to turn over to get rid of the pain, and this happens all the time and when he's laying down every night he has the pain. He cannot hold his phone in his left hand for a long time due to the pain. The pain is localized around the injection site itself. He has a friend that is having the exact same symptoms as well. He has not taken anything for the pain/reaction or called his doctor. This has been going on for almost 2 months and wonders if he has a blockage in that arm. This pain wakes him up at night and he has to switch locations in order to get rid of the pain.

A 64-year-old male patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE, Formulation: Solution for injection), second dose via an unspecified route of administration on 17May2021 (at the age of 64-year-old, Batch/Lot Number: EW0177) as a single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included was walking pneumonia twice and other than that just a typical flu. The patient races dirt bikes so he was tough. Also, he had carpel tunnel from his job, and he had left over pain pills from that, and he had been taking them to help reduce the pain since he cannot really do anything about his side effects. Concomitant medication included pain pills, no other products reported. The patient previously received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE, Formulation: Solution for injection), first dose via an unspecified route of administration on 26Apr2021 (Batch/Lot Number: EW0162) as a single dose for COVID-19 immunisation and on an unspecified date in Apr2021, experienced muscle stiffness and soreness that was in left arm and around his buttocks and his thighs and reported felt soreness for a few days afterward. This report is not related to study or programme. It was reported that, honestly, he wishes he never got it because he cannot do anything. He was on the fence about getting it since we are at the end of the pandemic and the hospitals are not as overwhelmed anymore. Everyone thinks that he was still in his 50's, he was very healthy, and he has no medical or health issues and he works out all the time, which was why he was so concerned about why it was affecting him like this. He has had his second dose of the COVID vaccine, and he wanted to report what was going on with his body. It was reported that, then he got the 2nd dose and within a day or two he was sore, and he was at the 11th day of experiencing this. He was sore and tight on his upper body like his chest, both arms, his shoulder blades, biceps, triceps, lower neck muscles and on his shoulder blades behind him. He had his 2nd dose not last Monday but the Monday before that. It did dissipate during the day. He jokingly said it was like the Pfizer vaccine retreats and hides during the day. Because of this he has had no decent sleep for the last few nights. His shoulder aches like someone took a bat and hit it. It feels like that on his left arm too but a little less pain. He was a side body sleeper, and he cannot sleep on his side because of this so then he ends up sleeping on his back with his mouth wide open which then makes him dehydrated of course. he has no energy, and the pain was like it was hitting a nerve where he barely can pick up 5 pounds. This was an extending issue and he just wanted to report and see if anyone else has had this before. The hospital said that they have not had anyone else report this before. It was slowly dissipating but he did not understand why it reinforces itself in the evening. Yesterday, he had to go service a customer and he was moving so slow and had lower back and thigh tightness. His upper body was sore and tight so when he got home, he was walking around trying to get his blood flowing and stretching some but then in the middle of the night those reserves came out and he gets attacked. The stiffness, soreness and pain were all concentrated mostly on his upper body. Also, his neck pops and he has never had that happen before. He looked it up and it looks like it was something with air in his bloodstream or something and when he rotates his head and looks around it makes a pop sound, and it has been doing it ever since his 2nd shot. He says this started probably on 18May2021 right after the vaccine. The patient clarified that for the side effects after his second dose that began soon after the COVID vaccine and he states that it was like all hell broke loose. This has gotten a little bit better but not a lot. Maybe 10% better or maybe 15% better. As he was sitting there his shoulder area on the right side was a little bit in pain. He feels like he was 80 years old, he was walking slow, and his body was stiff. No further details provided on the pain pills. He says he was flexing his bicep and he has some pain and there was pain in his triceps. He also has pain between those muscles, it hurts. It was maybe where he had the COVID vaccine. He also has this same pain on the left side except his bicep doesn't hurt but his tricep does and it hurts from his elbow down to his shoulder and it aches. On a scale of 1-10 his pain was at a 3-4 but at night it was worse. The patient and health care professional consent to be contacted was reported as yes. Investigation assessment was reported as no. The outcome of the events Sleep deficit, oral disorder, dehydration, hypokinesia, feeling abnormal was unknown and for all other events recovering. Information on Lot/Batch number was available. Additional information has been requested.

Immediately within two minutes, strange disoriented feeling, heavy sweating and weakness. Sitting down I lost vision in my right eye (just dark grey with a tiny blurry spot of light in the center). Left eye could not focus. After about twenty minutes, both eyes became very sensitive to light (like a pupil dilation test in an eye exam). This lasted about additional 10 minutes. I remained pretty weak for the next hour but was then ok. The next day I felt 100%.

I had painful breathing in the upper right quad of my abdomen. The deeper I took a breath, the more it hurt. The onset was on that Thursday. I am a right side sleeper and I couldn't sleep on that right side. I went back to the surgeon who removed my gallbladder. No treatment was given because no cause of the pain could be found. I started feeling less pain while breathing while I was in the waiting room. Over the next 3 days, the pain got gradually less to a point where it was not hurting at all.

He won't go to the doctor or emergency room and he was scared. The patient wanted to commit suicide, just said that four days ago. It was not an emergency at this time. The patient was getting suicidal thoughts, but that was part of his paranoia anyway. He felt like he was being used as a test victim. His mind went nuts because he was paranoid, it was before he received the vaccine. Maybe the patient would take enough time to breathe and have logic to seep into his brain. All symptoms started immediately and were all ongoing. The reporter confirmed that by symptoms he was referring to 'his friend's joints being swollen', 'freezing, hot and cold all night', 'sounded like he smokes four packs a day', 'lymph nodes were large balls like an egg on his neck'.

Two days after receiving the 2nd shot, began to experience inflammation and pain in joints from head to toe. These both have been debilitating, hard to move around, hard to get out of bed, hard climb stairs, hard to use hands due to swelling, hard turn head and cannot kneel down. Life has become very hard and painful. Gabapentin was prescribed and did nothing. My doctor prescribed celecoxib for the pain and inflammation. I've only been using it for 3 days and am having moderate relief, but too soon to tell.

A 64-year-old male patient received first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, formulation: solution for injection, #lot number:ER8732) via an unspecified route of administration administered in left arm on 16-Apr-2021 at 10:30 (at age of 64-years-old) as single dose for COVID-19 immunization. The patient's medical history and concomitant medications were not reported.

It was reported that the patient received the first dose of the Pfizer covid vaccine and was in the hospital for blockage in the lower intestines on 17Apr2021. The patient wanted to know if that is associated with the Pfizer covid vaccine. He stated his nephew was a police dispatcher and got a call where someone else have reported similar issue what the patient has experienced. The patient did not know what vaccine that person had or age and gender of that person. The patient wanted to know about if Pfizer was going to get the FDA approval for the Covid vaccine. The patient reported that he had both doses and he was fine right now but when he had the first dose he was, he got it 16Apr2021 and he had some side effects the next day, on 17Apr2021 he was having cramping and he woke up and was feeling hot and cold and ended up in the hospital with a blockage in his intestine and he was wondering if that could have been anything that was related the vaccine. The patient has lost weight in the hospital, he thinks he was about 145 lbs now. It was reported that the patient was fine the whole day he got the vaccine, he ran errands and did things he needed to do, he went to bed and woke up and felt hot and cold and on 17Apr2021, he was having hard time going to the bathroom. He called his son and told him he wasn't feeling well on an unspecified date in Apr2021 and his son came over and called his other son who is a fireman and he told them to call the ambulance so they did and they took him to the hospital and they couldn't figure out, he was asking them and they had no answer, he just seen on the website and he has been wanting to call but he wasn't going to but he did so that they would have it documented. He confirms when the cramping and feeling of hot and cold and difficulty using the bathroom began it was after midnight and the date was 17Apr2021. When asked if the feeling of hot and cold is ongoing, he says he was in the hospital for 8 days. When asked if the feeling of hot and cold is ongoing or has it recovered, he says he just had the feeling of being tired on an unspecified date in Apr2021 and out of it even after the fact. He does not if it had to do with vaccine or if it was something, he had going on prior to that. The ER doctor told him it was possible that when he got the vaccine whatever could have been going on and put his system in overload. He confirms he was admitted to the hospital due to blockage in the intestine supposedly, the lower intestine. He says that is recovered, everything got taken care of, he had to schedule a colonoscopy after he got out of the hospital. He does not know why they couldn't have done it there while he was in the hospital. He was contemplating the second dose; it was scheduled on 07-May-2021 and he had his scheduled colonoscopy for 10-May-2021 and he didn't know what he should do. People were telling him do it or not to do it but his doctor told him to go ahead and get it so he followed what he said and he did get it. The hospitalization dates were from 17Apr2021 until 24Apr2021 was the day that he got out. He had blood work done for cholesterol in the hospital and he sees a cardiologist doctor for the cholesterol. They did blood work in the hospital every day, he has no idea what the results were. The events feeling hot and cold, cramping and hard time going to the bathroom after midnight and the middle of the night lead the patient to emergency room visit. He didn't know whether to call but it has been playing on his mind. He is sure they have given millions of doses and he did not know if it could be anything to do the vaccine. The outcome of events blockage in the lower intestines, feeling of hot and cold was recovered and outcome of other events was unknown. Follow-up attempts are needed: Further information has been requested.

I developed vision abberations such that when i focus or concentrate (e.g. reading a book or computer screen) my vision would 'jump' or 'blink' or flicker causing me to not follow words I had been reading. Very clearly concentration of attention driven. This condition came on slowly. It took weeks after injections for the symptoms to develop. They remain. And seem to be getting more severe. My opthamologist has refered me to a neuroopthamologist. I can not think of any other causative factor in the last years, month, and weeks that could account for what I am experiencing. I have had NO illnesses. I have not had Covid-19 to the best of my knowledge. (Note: date & time given for #5 above is approximate)

A 64-year-old male patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINATION; lot number: ENG206), via an unspecified route of administration in right arm, on 17Mar2021 at 13:00 as dose 2, single for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included heart attack from 1994, left side kidney removed in 2015 and single functional kidney on right side from 2015. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. Historical vaccine included BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINATION; lot number: ENG202), via an unspecified route of administration in right arm, on 24Feb2021 at 13:00 as dose 1, single for COVID-19 immunization and experienced headache, stiff neck, peripheral vision was bad, migraine and swelling of hand and feet. The patient previously took (UBRELVY) for migraine and visual distortion. The patient had a headache and stiff neck really for no apparent reason and they continued. Then he noticed that his peripheral vision and vision was bad with visual distortion in Mar2021. He called his primary care provider and told him about this, and he was prescribed a steroid pack and for 2 months he was provided a muscle relaxer to help. They provided some relief but didn't get rid of it. Believes the steroid was a Zpack for inflammation and was unable to provide the name of the muscle relaxer or the NDC, Lot, or expiry for either Zpack or muscle relaxer given. Eventually, they continued and after he had the visual distortion, he went to an eye doctor to make sure nothing was wrong like a tumor that was causing the headaches or stiff neck. Eye doctor told him nothing wrong with his eyes and they were fine, not tumor, he just had migraines and he never had migraines before. He saw a neurologist and was diagnosed with migraines. On the first neurology appointment, they gave him an injection in the stomach, but he does not know the name of it. The second visit was given shots in the back of head and back of neck. On that next visit, he got a shot in the stomach and most of it was quiet down with the migraines and the visual distortion and he still had them. The patient was then given a drug to take to help when they flared up, for break through migraines in 2021. It was 100mg. He was given the free ones and he could only take up to 10 in a month. He was given 4 of them and only had to use 2 of them and the migraines and visual distortion has gone away. Provides NDC, lot number 1843724 and expiry of Jul2022. He started this in Apr2021 or in May2021 after his first visit with neurologist, (withheld). During the same time, he had the migraines and also started having pains in his upper thighs, felt like in his muscles. States imagine little bubbles like they are going to pop was how it felt in 2021. They went away and stopped. He then started to have back stuff, pains that started in Mar2021 or Apr2021. They stopped after 7-8 days later and then they were gone. He was then sent to a nerve specialist and they did a conduction nerve test to see if what happened affected his nerves and the test was fine. Then all of a sudden, after one thing happened and went away another one would start and then his lower back got so painful so that he could hardly walk and went to an orthopedist thinking it could be a pinched nerve in 2021. They did x-rays but could not see anything that caused this kind of pain. They didn't give him anything, but 7 days after that he was fine ever since, and it just went away. He also had pains in the upper arms that felt like someone was giving him shots at the same time in both arms and also a kind that hurts and stays hurting. Felt like they didn't pull out the needle, like someone was pressing the needle in the arm, directly in the area you are getting a shot, but this feeling lasted much longer. Had this very same feeling in the top of both shoulders and they were intermittent. One minute he would have them and the next they could last about 5 minutes, or it could be gone for 5 hours and show up again in 5 minutes. It was not consistent and happen every hour. This also resolved in May2021 along with the migraines. Patient had pains at top of shoulders fell in line with his neck, where the soft spot between the collar bone is which was like getting a shot in his arm. Again, he no longer has these symptoms and no problems with vaccines in the past. Provides he had second dose on 17Mar2021 in left arm and lot number of ENG206. No further details provided. Started in the beginning of Jun probably, it's been about two and half weeks. He had not been able to use his hands. They are numb, tingling, feel swollen, he can't bend them or hold things for maybe a couple of minutes. He can't grip anything in Jun2021 and also got worsened in 2021. Extending from the tip of his fingers all the way up to the shoulders, in his left arm especially causes the wrist to hurt in Jun2021. It hurts all up to the left shoulder. In the right arm it only goes up to the bicep and these have gotten worse and are continuing to get worse. The patient was given tramadol for that pain and unable to provide NDC, Lot, or expiry from orange pharmacy for tramadol bottle. He takes 50mg, 1-2 tablets by mouth four times daily. It was prescribed 16Jun2021 and expires 16Jun2022. These pain pills help some, it takes the pain away, but does not allow him to grip with his hands or anything else. Now it may sound crazy, but when he coughed it would make him feel like the inside of his biceps were going to explode. It went away and only lasted a week. After a week this went away, but to touch it hurts after he coughed. Still had tenderness in both sides in the muscles, but at that time it felt like they were exploding outwards. Again, mentions he no longer has this. His feet are swollen up and he has never had that before now. Went back to see his heart doctor. He had gone to have a Covid test and heart test in Jan2021. With the swelling in the feet, he felt it had something to do with the heart and he went to see the cardiologist where they asked about testing which was done by primary care provider and also had antinuclear antibody testing done with primary care and that test came back with no arthritis in the hands on an unknown date. The patient mentioned he had a heart attack at age 38 before he had COVID vaccine, since he is 64 now. He didn't have any chest pains and didn't fall under those heart symptom questions asked. None had anything to do with his heart and the provider felt symptoms probably due to with the vaccine, but there is not enough information out there on it yet. He saw about 6 specialist and they all say the same thing. The patient still had his feet and hands swelling. He had a heart attack in the past or how it will affect his muscles in his heart because he does not want to find out later that it had affected his heart, and nobody knew. The patient also had an magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain, blood vessels and nerves ordered by his Neurologist as well. The outcome of peripheral vision bad, his vision was bad; visual distortion was recovered in Mar2021; pains in upper thighs was recovered in May2021; lower back got so painful so that he could hardly walk was recovering; felt like bubbles in muscles like they pop was unknown while the other events was not recovered.

The patient had not received any other vaccines within 4 weeks prior to the BNT162B2 vaccine. No additional vaccines administered on same date of the BNT162B2 vaccine. On 02Jan2021 the patient experienced injection site pain. On 03Jan2021 the patient experienced cheek swelling, periorbital swelling/swelling around his eyes, feeling wiped out, muscle pain, joint pain, chills, fever, general malaise, low grade headache, sweating. No event did require a visit to Emergency Room or Physician Office. No relevant tests performed. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of chills, fever, general malaise, low grade headache, sweating. Course of events: He said initially he had no adverse events after receiving the COVID-19 Vaccine, except injection site pain. He said he thought the injection site pain could be from the COVID-19 Vaccine being viscous, and didn't think anything else about the injection site pain. On 03Jan2021 he started to experience some. He stated he did not normally take vaccines, like the flu vaccine. He said he has been a podiatrist for 39 years, and realized the importance of getting the vaccine to protect his patients. He then developed chills, muscle pain, fever, and general malaise. He said he experienced every side effect listed on the received COVID-19 Vaccine paperwork, except he had no lymphadenopathy. He said all the side effects he experienced appeared 24 hours to the minute from when he received the COVID-19 Vaccine. On 03Jan2021, he had swelling in his cheeks and around his eyes. He did not get sick often. He said he had a rough night on 03Jan2021 and on 03Jan2021 he still felt wiped out. Treatment: he took 2 Tylenol 325mg at the start of the side effects, and then took another 2 Tylenol 325mg at 2:00AM. He said he woke up soaking wet with chills and sweats. He said his fever broke, but he did not know how high his fever was. He took from a fresh bottle of Tylenol 325mg.

Felt kind of nauseated/ nausea; Could not think/his mind was blank/ couldn't think to do anything; felt like he was in slow motion; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). This 65-year-old male patient received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in left arm on 22Mar2021 probably around noon (at age of 65 years old; lot number: ER8730) as single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included high blood pressure diagnosed about 10 years ago and diabetes type 2 diagnosed about 10 years ago (as of 24Mar2021). He caught COVID a few months ago (as of 24Mar2021) and was sick for 3 weeks and then came out of that and at that time got a rash and came out of that and wanted to get the vaccine because he was age 65 and did not want this thing to kill him. Concomitant medication(s) included gabapentin 300mg, 1 capsule three times per day by mouth, taken for neuropathy in his hands and his hands hurt from 22Mar2021 and ongoing. He was given the gabapentin to stop his hands from hurting. He also had medications he took every day and had diabetes type 2, and also had high blood pressure that he took medication for. No additional vaccines were administered on same date of the Pfizer suspect. There were no prior vaccinations within 4 weeks of the Pfizer vaccine. The patient reported he saw his healthcare professional (HCP) for the first time the same day he got the Pfizer Vaccine on 22Mar2021 and saw the HCP that morning. When he left he felt fine that day 22Mar2021 and felt fine that night. That night he tore up his bedroom and cleaned it and felt fine. Then the next morning (23Mar2021) he went to work and felt fine for a while and then got to building. He started working and then felt like he was in slow motion and couldn't think and it was crazy and his mind was blank and he could not think and felt like he was in slow motion; couldn't think to do anything. The feeling like he was in slow motion and not being able to think began yesterday morning on 23Mar2021 and stopped yesterday 23Mar2021 also. Yesterday he came home because he runs saws at work and stuff like that and he couldn't think and couldn't be around stuff like that because he was cutting things and could get hurt. He had not had this happen before and the feeling as if he couldn't think and felt in slow motion was not ongoing today, 24Mar2021. Today he now has nausea and the nausea was ongoing and about the same as when it began. Also stated as today (24Mar2021) he felt kind of nauseated and couldn't do anything again today and thought he would stay home because of these small side effects of the vaccine that he wanted to report. He had no treatment for the reported events but just went home and laid down. The events did not require an emergency room visit. Regarding whether the events required a visit to physician office the patient replied "Yes", he saw his HCP the morning of the day he got the vaccine on 22Mar2021. Patient was going to call the HCP to see if the medication she gave him would have these side effects and he had not taken the Gabapentin before; stated the HCP issued him Gabapentin that he began taking on 22Mar2021. He was calling the HCP to see if the reported events were related to the gabapentin as he had not taken that before. "Feeling like he was in slow motion and not being able to think" was recovered on 23Mar2021 and patient had not recovered from nauseated.

EXTREME muscle pain in legs starting 4 days after the injection - 4/3/21. The pain started the day after a routine 5 mile run. By routine, I mean a run that I have done thousands of times without muscle soreness. At first, the pain was treatable with a 400mg dose of Ibuprofen but gradually worsened to the point where over the counter NSAIDS were no longer effective. Moving to 200mg Celecoxhib 2x day was only modestly effective. The pain was so intense that I am unable to get adequate sleep and has consolidated in the left leg.

He stated that due to this persistent dry mouth, he had only been able to sleep on average 3 to 4 hours a night for the past 6 to 7 weeks. Patient reported that he hasn't come back from an ENT specialist regarding this and was told by this doctor that he had seen 6 other patients with similar dry mouth who have had the COVID-19 vaccination and/or COVID-19 itself. It was stated that his doctor also referenced an article in a journal that came out a few days ago that stated COVID-19 was shown to infect the salivary glands. He stated that his doctor was unable to give any further recommendations other than gave him things to keep him comfortable such as Salagen. He also mentioned that after receiving the vaccine, he was being awoken every 20 minutes all night long and many times had to urinate but reported that this side effects has subsided.

He said the only thing that made any sense had seen medication before and they just don't know yet. This was not just enough information and he showed him an article for that he just found the other day that said this enough, COVID was infecting salivary glands or was believed to be so it would seem this might be something that was being recorded yet and might be somebody wanted to take a look at mine. He doesn't know but it was he can't find anything anywhere about this. He can't either except the story that he saw just a few days ago which was professional (Name) journal about COVID now infecting salivary glands that was exactly they know he was suffering it somewhat of freak salivary gland reactions that could be it or could had been COVID (Further not clarified hence PC filed conservatively).

He was pretty healthy; regularly went to the doctor and was otherwise pretty stable. Reporter did not even think his LDL was that high. He had never been on any blood thinners or anything like that. They did a full scan to look for cancer and had no history of blood clots. They did a scan that was negative for any types of masses or any concerns for cancer. His prostate was enlarged (from unknown date in 2021) and they had spoken to the family about it and they said he had been worked up with a biopsy which had been negative. Physician Office? Yes, He was directly admitted to the hospital from primary care. He presented to the clinic because he had these symptoms and headaches. The imaging was done and then he was admitted. He never went through the emergency room. Cerebral venous thrombosis, bilateral intracerebral hemorrhage, overall imbalance/having balance problems, he had a decline, headaches resulted in Physician Office Visit. Outcome of cerebral venous thrombosis, bilateral intracerebral hemorrhage was not resolved; outcome of tonic-clonic seizure, brain swelling/cerebral edema, headache, overall imbalance/having balance problems, he had a decline, kind of getting worse/ had the worst symptoms, enlarged prostate and mental status was altered was unknown. Causality: Cerebral venous thrombosis: Can't say for sure because reporter does not know the timeline but can't find any other reason, he would have cerebral venous thrombosis.; Sender's Comments: Based on the temporal relationship, the association between the events cerebral venous thrombosis, intracerebral hemorrhage, tonic-clonic seizure, and brain swelling with BNT162b2 can not be fully excluded.

I still get tired easily , have rapid heart beats for up to an hour at a time and some days just take it easy.

I had only taken a day or two sick leave before my injection, but took many days after the shot. I feel much better other than what I described above. I am reporting this because all news is talking about younger individuals. But I had/have the same symptoms and over 65.

After the second shot I started getting what feels like cramps in my thighs, buttocks, and calves along with pain in my lower back; at night it's hard to sleep with the pain and the leg stiffness that accompanies the pain. Getting up in the morning is agonizing as my legs are stiff and almost immovable. Symptoms usually appear late in the day, especially before bedtime! Pain is bad, and I've been going to my doctor but all he wants to do is give me painkillers that have bad side-effects, so I'm getting by with OTC pain relief products, both oral and topical.

According to staff....Recipient received the above vaccination and went to sit for 30 minutes. He had already explained to the staff that he had had previous reactions to bee stings that required epinephrine so the nurse practitioner had instructed him that he was to wait for 30 minutes vs the usual 15 minutes. It is unclear exactly how many minutes into the post-vaccination period passed before he began to report numbness around his lips. The nurse practitioner then indicated he began a "rash" on the back of his neck. The recipient reported that this was feeling very much like his previous allergic reactions. They took his BP and it was reported to be around 180/100 at that time. He did not report feeling SOB but reported his throat felt like it had in previous allergic reactions. Recipient remained alert and oriented the entire time. It was decided by the two nurse practitioners on site that he be given the epinephrine and Benadryl IM. His BP remained elevated and then, following the epinephrine, he became very shaky and a bit foggy. 911 was then notified for further assistance from the EMT's and possible evaluation at the local hospital which was about 5 minutes away. Paramedics evaluated the recipient and agreed that evaluation at the hospital would be warranted. He never lost consciousness or required oxygen or other assistance. He was able to place himself on the gurney and was speaking with his wife (that was present)as he was taken out the door. The transfer was done out of an abundance of caution. We do not know if the hospital kept him following the incident.

Anxiety. Severe concern about how I felt at the moment, lying in bed. Started at about 2:30 am. An electric feeling. Hard to describe. I thought I might be having a heart attack. It happened several times, resolving to a normal state after 40 min or so, being ok for maybe 1/2 an hour then returning. After 3 or 4 worrisome crescendos, I decided to go to the Emergency Room at 4:30 am. Observed there, released with analysis being it was anxiety, not a heart problem.

Also I noted that the 2nd covid-19 dose recorded on the15th of March is identical to the one I received on February 22, 2021, leading me to believe that the person who administrated the second shot simply copied the lot number information from the first shot that was recorded on card.

Five days after my second vaccine, at about 8 am, I developed fairly diffuse abdominal pain, and retching. I left work and went home. This lasted for about 3 to 4 hours, then let up, but then developed about 45 minutes of profound rigors, which then let up, then my temperature (had been normal) went up to less than 102 F. For the next six days I continued to run fever, never higher than 103, chills, and some migrating abdominal pain, no diarrhea, normal stools, constipated if anything. Stayed home from work obviously. On Sunday, and Monday am, still running fevers, my pain seemed to settle into my right lower quadrant. My wife, a family physician, helped arrange a CT scan Abdomen and Pelvis, as we were concerned about appendicitis, maybe an abscess. The scan revealed normal appendix, but several lesions in the right side of the liver thought highly suspicious for "metastatic disease." MRI recommended, and had this Wednesday that week, and it confirmed the lesions, with characteristics suspicious for metastatic tumors. By Monday afternoon, my fever abated, and I felt much better. Able to return to work. The abdominal discomfort was improved, maybe due to constipation. Friday of that week, I was able to get to see my primary provider, who is in Omaha, NE to review the situation, and we agreed a liver biopsy was needed. A week later, Friday, Jan. 29, I had CT guided liver biopsy at hospital in Omaha. 16 cores taken, and no malignancy found, but significant inflammatory cells, especially lymphocytes. Meanwhile I have felt fine. Decided to do a follow up MRI of liver, which was done Friday, April 2, and all the areas have resolved. There is an entity called "Inflammatory pseudotumors" of the liver, and my condition fits with this. It is very rare. A consideration would be whether it would be possible to stain the biopsy to see if the lymphocytes carry antibodies to the corona virus.

I got the vaccine in the morning. That night I was unable to fall asleep the whole night. A few weeks went by and then I started experiencing occasional insomnia. I would wake up in the middle of the night and be unable to go back to sleep. It kept getting worse such that I could not fall asleep without taking a sleeping pill. What happens is that when I lay down after about 10 to 15 minutes I start to feel a surge of energy. My body gets hot. It is not a fever. My heart seems to beat faster and my mind is racing. My doctor prescribed both Ambien and Lunesta. I take one or the other and eventually I go to sleep. I am averaging about 4 hours of sleep at night after I take the drug. The stress of not being able to sleep well has given me some anxiety issues. In addition, the anxiety has led me to develop high blood pressure. I am now taking high blood pressure medicine. I am not the kind of person who has anxiety normally. I believe the vaccine introduced something into my system that is triggered every night now preventing me from natural sleep.

About 4 hours after my 2nd dose, I was driving on my way home and all of a sudden I felt like I was hallucinating. I saw what looked like a bug infestation coming across my vision line. It was a swarm of black spots. I had to stop and re-evaluate my situation on the way home. When I gained control again, I realized it wasn't a hallucination. It was my actual vision. When I got home I basically crashed for the rest of the day. The next day I contacted my optometrist and I went in for an evaluation. They said it was a cloud of floaters. I asked if there was any chance that it was a side effect of the vaccine. They told me no. They sent me to an ophthalmologist. He told me that it will never go away. I went back to my optometrist and they said it would go away. All that they could come up with is that it is a coincidence. I have also had dizzy spells. They weren't strong, but it was like a constant dizziness. I still have all of the symptoms going on. The floaters in my eye seem like they are starting to dissipate. I have had some mild nausea. I can take a nap and it seems like it dissipates. This all came on at one time. I have been extremely tired lately. I take 2-3 naps a day and that is just not like me. It's like the feeling of being hungover, but I haven't had a drink in months.

My husband has had a fever and extreme exhaustion every day, all day. for 16 days, since he go the Pfizer vaccine. He is retaining water, does not sleep at night, has heavy night sweats, and is emotionally spent. He has no appetite and forces himself to eat. He tastes what little food he eats. He visited his family doctor, a gastroenterologist, and has been in the emergency room two times for sheer exhaustion and pain. He was released both times after tests. Each time, no one could find a cause and no one sent him to other doctors for help. They would not admit him because there was no guarantee he could see other doctors any faster than if he were at home making appointments. He was referred to an infectious disease specialist by the gastroenterologist, but that appointment isn't until March 9, 2021. He will have faded even more by then.

That night i felt a little strange, light-headed. Saturday around 10 AM I developed a moderate headache, and then was mildly short of breath, and most concerning, a little bit of afib. My heartbeat was steady (nothing like the afib I first had about seven years ago or so), but I missed about seven or eight beats in a minute (my pulse is usually around 60). That was not regular. My wife thought I might be having a migraine (I have had about five in my life), but if so it was very mild. On her advice I had about a quart of water over a couple of hours, and both symptoms resolved. Currently fine.

Slight headache about 30 minutes after receiving shot at 11 AM, Saturday, 3/6/2021. About 5 hours after shot I started feeling like I was coming down with something, like I had a mild fever and headache was a little more pronounced, but still mild. By 8pm I had fever of 102F, headache was now uncomfortable, so took 2 Tylenol and went to bed. Fever broke about 3-4AM, but still retained a very mild fever of 99F with very mild headache, muscle aches and joint stiffness/pain for the following day and the day after. By Tuesday 3/9, head was starting to clear and feeling like I had mild fever was gone. Headache was no longer. Each day thereafter, my head seemed to be more cognitive/clearer and looking back, I could tell I was not thinking clearly, with difficulty remembering things. Since I was not working, fogginess had zero impact on my lifestyle. I should note the first shot, received on 2/13/2021, I had no effects at all. Nothing. Since I was not feeling very well during this time, I tended towards comfort foods which elevated my blood sugar, but that returned to normal levels by 3/9/2021.

My first dose of the vaccine was administered on March 11th 2021 at Walgreens Pharmacy, Pfizer Lot number EN6199. The side effects from this dose were mild nausea, shakes, chills, dizzy, somewhat disoriented and "foggy" brain. These disappeared the next day. My second dose was on April 1st. at the same facility. This time I had no reaction. On the morning on April 11th I woke up feeling miserable. The symptoms were identical to the side effects of the first dose, except worse. This time I also had a low grade fever. These symptoms dissipated in 36 hours. On April 13th I woke up to the same symptoms again, though milder, lasting about 8 hours. Today, April 21st,, I woke up with the symptoms one more time, lasting about 5 hours. As I am writing this I feel fine again. As a lay person I have no idea if these are all related. The whole scenario seems rather odd to me. For your information, I had my yearly physical in late March 2021, all tests were normal.

Following the first shot I had typical flu-like symptoms - fever, aches in joints and muscles, headache and brain fog. The second shot had the same symptoms as the first but after about 22 hours I apparently had some type of anaphylactic reaction - I remember going to the bathroom - but I woke up on the floor by the bed, and could not think how to get back in bed. My wife called 2 neighbors who helped me up. It was difficult to form complete sentences. I was transported by ambulance to ER. The ER ran a battery of blood tests, CT scan and chest x-ray. The ER doctors and oncologists concluded that I must have had a delayed reaction to the vaccine. Today, April 28, things are back to normal.

He also has blurry vision and just not feeling normal. He did go see his PCP and she put him on Meclizine for the dizziness, which works about 50%, but not completely. He did have the 2nd vaccine on 2/22/21 and still had the symptoms, which have stayed since then as well. He then saw his PCP a week ago and she is scheduling for a CT scan to see if he has any blood clots.

He now is still having these three symptoms that he did not have prior to the vaccine.

Pt reported some left arm pain that began about 24 hours after the injection. Assuming it was a typical reaction we provided reassurance and warm compresses. He progressively then expressed that the pain was radiating down the entire arm to his fingers and that he is unable to sleep. He then appeared confused with inability to dress himself, getting lost in the house and not knowing how to get to bathroom. We checked his blood sugar and blood pressure which were at his baseline. He complained of excruciating pain that did not respond to Aleve, Indomethacin, Tramadol or local lidocaine. He described it as knifes in his arm. He did not seem weak but he had no coordination to eat with arm or button his coat. After watching this for 2 weeks with no improvement we went to the emergency room on March 19, 2021. He is uninsured so we were really trying to avoid going in but he was only getting more confused. He was admitted and had several tests listed below without any acute causes found. He was given Gabapentin in the hospital and that settled his pain for the first time in 2 weeks. He was discharged on March 20th as the treating doctor felt he might benefit from spinal tap but was not sure.

I got the 2nd shot 10 am at the store location which is a 3 1/2 hr drive from my house. After the 15min waiting period with no issues. I was able to get in the car and head home. The injections site did not bleed and the nurse didn't need to use a band aid. My wife and I went to an outdoor restaurant and had dinner I came home and everything was fine. I went to bed and when I woke up, I was very lethargic and out of it. Sometime during the day, I noticed my 3 middle fingers on each hand and the middle knuckle on those hands were painful and stiff. On my right hand the middle knuckle was swollen and noticeably large. These symptoms lasted for about a week or two. The pain and swelling in the middle knuckle lasted the longest. I was advised by my doctor I have slight arthritis but it does not prevent any of my daily activities. I noticed several weeks later around the 1st week in May as I would wake up in the morning, a pain would shoot throughout my entire right leg. I would get up and the pain would be gone for the rest of the day, The pain got progressively worse during the first 2 weeks of May. By the third week of May the pain had gotten so bad I could hardly walk. I made an appointment with my orthopedic surgeon with the idea I may need hip replacement surgery. Then I noticed during that 3rd week the pain completely went away. I called to cancel my appointment with my orthopedic surgeon. Around the last week of May and the first 3 weeks of June I would wake up in the morning I would have to run to the restroom because I had a lot of gas and some diarrhea. On the 17th of June my wife and I took a trip and as we walked around the town, I noticed there was something going on with my digestion and we rushed back to the hotel. During this period of time I would have to go to the restroom 2-4 times in the morning and maybe 1-2 times in the afternoon, This was mostly caused by gas with a bowel movement happening in small amounts throughout the day. I've noticed that these adverse reactions are impacting areas the body where I have may have been compromised previously.

I feel dizzy and confuse for few minutes but after I went home I was ok. However two weeks after the first shot I woke up at 2:oo in the morning with the noise in my head. I thought I was going to get a struck and I was no able to sleep after that. I have to wait for the weekend to be over. I make an appointment with the doctor and I get referrals to a cardiologist and a ENT. I got US of my carotid artery both sides with normal results. I had a hearing test and they said I has lost of hearing but in my daily life I have not experience problem with my hearing. The ENT sent me for an MRI of the brain and inner ear but came out normal. Since April 14, 2021 I can not sleep at night because of the ringing in my ear. I spoke with others with this problem after the vaccine and I check on line and learn about others with similar effects and for that reason I am sending this report.

Patient states that when he got the vaccine he did not feel the pharmacist give it to him, so he does not think it went into the muscle. The next day following vaccination the patient had a sore arm similar to what he experienced with the first dose. This sore arm progressively became worse and has not gotten any better since the pain began and it has now been over 3 months since he received the vaccine. Patient has a decreased range of motion and experiences severe pain that lasts approximately 2 minutes anytime he moves his shoulder. He states his quality of life has diminished because daily tasks like putting on a t-shirt are very painful and the chronic pain meds that he already takes regularly do not help. He mentioned the shoulder pain during a virtual pain management visit today and the nurse practitioner suggested that he may have bursitis due to where the vaccine was injected. I recommended the patient follow-up with his PCP for the possibility of being referred to physical therapy.

May be a coincidence, but symptoms began an hour after the 2nd vaccination, and I have no history of sciatica. An acute sharp pain started in the left hip, radiating down the front of my to the left ankle. The best diagnosis at the moment is sciatica due to Left L5 radiculopathy. Treatment sought at urgent care facilities, then a specialty sports injury and orthopedic clinic. Treatment in each case was a course of prednisone and methocarbomol, and physical therapy. Three months in, the pain is reduced, but still prevents a number of common activities, like driving. Physical therapy continues, and more tests are scheduled.

Severe pain on surface of skin. At first, it felt as if my muscle was rip from my rib cage. Then the pain moved to my lower left chest. Doctors did an EKG and various blood test but could not pinpoint source. The same symptom moves to my left upper arm, then move to my upper abdomen. Now it is in both arms towards wrist, which is causing severe shales in both arms. In all cases my flesh is sensitive to touching, and the recovery times was an average of 3-to-4 weeks. I am active person, and now this ailment which seems like some nerve damage, is crippling. I can only link these symptoms to some byproduct of the vaccine.

My husband attempted suicide by overdose - he emptied out his medicine tray by taking all the pills - Paramedics came out he refused transport on the day of the overdose - and they left. My husband was home with our children and one of the children had a psychotic episode - I had been at the hospital on Tuesday afternoon with my child. My husband was against getting inpatient treatment and he did it (suicide attempt) to get me to try to come home. I came home that night at 10:30. There was no treatment that night. Volunteered to go to detox - Thursday for detox at local hospital - 10:30 morning - he was there until Sunday. I don't know what treatment there was because I was not allowed to visit him. Was transferred on Sunday to a different hospital- and he was there for Wednesday morning - 2 1/2 days - He was talking with a therapist there. As far as I know he had two appts. He is currently - sees his therapist every two weeks and sees his psychiatrist once a month. They have changed his medication - the Risperidone done to 1/4 milligram twice a day. He is trying to get him to stop sleeping all the time. On the past Friday, Medical Center - for chest pain and seizures. They gave him fluids by mouth - no IV fluids. It took them about 24 hours to get blood out of them - they had to get him hydrated enough for that. He's not moving much - he still sleeps most of the time.

The patient just does not always make sense. On Saturday, he did not make sense. Sunday, he was better and almost everything was back to normal. He was fine on 19Apr2021; he was himself. The reporter stated that the patient (her brother-in-law) has dementia anyways, so sometimes he does not make sense. Saturday it was exacerbated, he would ask what to do next or where the bathroom is and this is all stuff that he knows. The patient still had his appetite, the reporter and her husband always say that when her brother-in-law can not eat or does not ask for food then the end is near. The reporter stated the drug Modafinal worked wonderful, he was great on Friday, and he was wonderful before he got the shot. Relevant test was none. The outcome of event made no sense and could barely be understood was resolved. The outcome of other events was unknown. No follow-up attempts are needed; information about lot/batch number cannot be obtained.

stomach was upset; stomach nauseous; Felt out of sorts/ didn't feel right/ flipping and flopping; Really bad headache; very tired; Poison Ivy; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 69-years-old male patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Formulation: Solution for injection, Lot number: EW0171), dose 2 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in arm right on 01May2021 as single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included pulmonary embolism shower, cholesterol and arthritis.

The patient previously took the first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Lot number: EW0153), administered in right arm on 01Apr2021 as single dose for COVID-19 immunization and Zithromycin topical. The patient neither receive any other vaccines on same date of the Pfizer suspect nor within four weeks prior to the first administration date of the suspect vaccine. The patient reported that he had COVID like symptoms after getting his second shot and was taking prednisone along with the shot after going to urgent care for poison ivy. The patient wanted to know if this would be an adverse event. The caller was also taking Zithromycin topical. On 05May2021, 4 days after the vaccination, he went to urgent care where he was told he had poison ivy. Urgent care started him on Doxycycline and Prednisone. The prednisone was tapered from 60mg for 4 days, 40mg for 4 days and 10mg for 4 days. A week ago (Saturday), his niece visited him and they hugged and stuff. The patient's niece was not vaccinated. They sat outside. On 27May2021, the patient started feeling very tired, his stomach was upset and was very nauseated. The patient further reported that he was doing yard work a week ago this past Thursday and he thought he didn't feel right so he took shower and laid on couch in the dark all day. He stated that his stomach was nauseous, he felt out of sorts, he was flipping and flopping. That night he went to bed and woke up with a really bad headache to the point of where he thought of taking pain medication for the headache. He never had a fever. The patient did not want to take any COVID tests if it were to come back positive because he heard about the baseball players getting the Johnson and Johnson shot and having COVID and not having any symptoms and one of them had symptoms, but it only lasting for a day or two. The patient's brother-in-law and sister, who he lives with, also received the vaccines and were fully vaccinated at the time of his nieces visit and were in close proximity to niece. They didn't had any effects from hugging her so that was why he thought maybe it was related to him taking prednisone. The patient did not require a visit to emergency room but required an urgent care for poison ivy. There was no family medical history relevant to events other than brother-in-law and sister-in-law didn't have any side effects after hugging niece. The patient did not undergo relevant tests. The outcome of the event stomach nauseous, feeling abnormal and really bad headache was resolved on 28May2021; while Poison Ivy, very tired and stomach was upset was unknown. The patient thought his symptoms (stomach nauseous, felt out of sorts/ didn't feel right/ flipping and flopping, really bad headache, very tired and stomach was upset) maybe related to the Prednisone. Follow up attempts are needed. Further information has been requested.

COVID 19 antibody test result was less than 1.00 units index/ negative antibody test; His Lipase level also has gone up to 231; extreme fatigue; not being able to sleep; his blood sugar dropping to the 50s when he's diabetic; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable nurse (patient). A 69-year-old male patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number and expiration date were not provided), via an unspecified route of administration in left arm on 07Jan2021 at 10:00 (at the age of 69-years-old) at 2nd dose, single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included diabetes mellitus type 2; kidney stones from 7-8 years ago, the most recent kidney stone had to be surgically removed a year ago (2020); hypothyroidism, depression, and prostatic hypertrophy. Concomitant medications included levothyroxine sodium from 2001 for hypothyroidism, venlafaxine hydrochloride (EFFEXOR) from 2006 for depression, tamsulosin from 2017 for prostatic hypertrophy; metformin from 2015 for diabetes mellitus type 2, which were all ongoing; and other unspecified medications. The patient previously received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number: EH9899), via an unspecified route of administration in left arm on 17Dec2020 at 08:00 (at the age of 69-years-old) at 1st dose, single dose for COVID-19 immunization. He also previously received flu vaccine on an unspecified date in 2020 for immunization and experienced body aches. On May2021, 2 weeks ago, the patient noticed extreme fatigue, which was not enough for him to be immobile, but he felt like a wet noodle. He was able to function and see patients, but it takes it out of him. There was no correlation to time of day or activity. The fatigue just comes and goes. He was also unable to sleep on May2021. He had a lab test on 19May2021, where his COVID-19 antibody resulted in less than 1.00 unit index. The doctor said he never saw an antibody response this low and had no idea how to interpret it. The patient did some study himself and was still unsure what that means. He was asking for information about the antibody results. He then added that as a first responder nurse, he sees oncology patients and was very concerned about having no antibodies to COVID 19. His main concern was the negative antibody test. The patient also reported a new increase in lipase to a dangerous level, it has gone up to 231 (reference level: 60-70) on 19May2021. His last lipase level was in Dec2020, but he was unable to locate the results at this time. He was now scheduled for an MRI of his pancreas on 16Jun2021. The patient also noticed his blood sugars dropped down all of a sudden when he's diabetic on an unspecified date in 2021. They were 50 to 70 or 75 (2021) and this was asymptomatically. He collected his blood sugar result and checks it a dozen times a day. It has no relation to food. His two-hour postprandial can be 80 (2021) and then it drops back down. His A1C was good (2021) and there seems to be no explanation from the labs. The patient went to his doctor on 27May2021 in response to the events. The outcome of the events "extreme fatigue" and "not being able to sleep" was not recovered and unknown for all other events. The events "extreme fatigue", "not being able to sleep", "COVID 19 antibody test result was less than 1.00 units index/ negative antibody test", and "His Lipase level also has gone up to 231" were reported as serious, medically significant. Relatedness of the events "COVID 19 antibody test result was less than 1.00 units index/ negative antibody test" and "His Lipase level also has gone up to 231" to the drug was stated as related and unknown for all other events. Information on lot/batch number has been requested.; Sender's Comments: The events "extreme fatigue", "not being able to sleep", "COVID 19 antibody test result was less than 1.00 units index/ negative antibody test", "His Lipase level also has gone up to 231", and "blood sugar decreased" are likely due to underlying medical condition and are unrelated to suspect product BNT162B2. The impact of this report on the benefit/risk profile of the Pfizer product is evaluated as part of Pfizer procedures for safety evaluation, including the review and analysis of aggregate data for adverse events. Any safety concern identified as part of this review, as well as any appropriate action in response, will be promptly notified to Committees, and Investigators, as appropriate.

Slight fever (99,5) and pain at injection site after second shot. Both resolved quickly and not of concern. However, perhaps 5 days to a week after first injection began to have skipped beats with great regularity. I do have a history of these, but not with such regularity. At first I thought they were from indigestion but they have been very consistent and frequent for the past 5 weeks and am now concerned . On three occasions I had so many of these palpitations from skipped beats that I could not sleep and needed to take lorazepam (which helped). One of these incidents was the day of the second shot accompanied by slight fever and small elevation of heart rate. My HR is slow, 43-49 when sleeping (smartwatch) and often below 50 when resting. I will often have these skipped beats several times per minute and THAT is unusual. And disturbing. So far, have not noticed them significantly during exercise (running et al...).

Got shot at 8am 22 Jan. Slight soreness in arm developed later the same day, but no problem. Everything was normal and went to bed. Woke up approximately 2-3 h later with extreme vertigo, dizziness, imbalance, completely clogged left ear, tinnitus in left hear and nausea. Within about an hour I was hyperventilating and had cold tingling sensation in hands and feet. About 2am went to hospital. They did a bunch of tests including a CT scan which revealed nothing adverse. They kept me over night and gave me an MRI the next morning. Again nothing adverse found. I was released that next day with orders to see PCP. Got an appt 2 days later. PCP immediately started me on Prednisone and referred me to ENT doctor. Got an audio test 2 days later and because of the severity of my symptoms (sudden, acute tinnitus and complete hearing loss in left ear) ENT prescribed higher dose and duration of prednisone. I am on day 5 of the 24day course prescribed by ENT with no appreciable improvement. Still have no hearing in left ear and tinnitus, imbalance and trouble focusing and walking. No causal link has been ascribed to the vaccine, but I am terrified of having the booster shot which is schedule for 12 Feb.

Starting the second day after the shot, I experienced deep anxienty and depression symptoms. I suffer from this on a regular basis and have dealt with this since 1974, but this was the worst I have had in many years. It lasted for two days and then today it has cleared. There is no other reason why I would have this except for the vaccine. I am OK now and did not contact anyone about it. I wanted to report this because I did not see it on the list of side effects and it would be nice for others to know it was coming. Please feel free to contact me if necessary. Thank you for getting me the vaccine and keep up the good work.

Today is much better and function has mostly returned. The reason I am reporting is because I just (jan.29 2021) tore my rotator cuff on right shoiulder and the loss of function is similar. Function is returning on left arm so no worried, the right shoulder will need shoulder replacement surgery. But that was the effect on this adverse event. Loss of function to left arm about 3 days with improvement after 36 hours. Kind of a delayed response, so not sure its related. But I didn't injure the left so probably related.

Malaise, myalgia, fatigue. Began about 4 days after the 2nd Pfizer vaccine. Lasted 10 days. I presumed it to be a viral syndrome but it was atypical and felt strange. It felt like when I had COVID in Nov 2020 but milder and without the respiratory symptoms or loss of smell. It finally resolved after 10 days or so. Later, after reading about the delayed local reactions to the Moderna vaccine, I thought that a delayed SYSTEMIC reaction was also possible. In my best clinical judgement this was a DELAYED SYSTEMIC REACTION.

My symptoms were constant for several hours then diminished, increased, and diminished until Friday when I felt largely symptom free.

Migraine intensity headaches started 4 hours after injection of the second dose and lasted for approx. 40 hours. Went to sleep at 10:30 PM the night of the second dose and woke up in a startled state every half hour until I got out of bed at 5:30 AM.

Five minutes after injection I began to feel agitated, experienced balance problems, had trouble mentally focusing, hands were shaking noticeably. These were the same symptoms that I experienced after my first injection of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine administered on February 2, 2021. I reported that event under VAERS temporary case number 279639 on 02/02/2021. As with the first event, the symptoms began in 5 minutes and lasted about 8 hours. However, the symptoms associated with event in this report (second injection) were more severe and peaked about 45 minutes after injection, as opposed to about 30 minutes after the first injection. I reported the first adverse event to the nurse before she gave me the second injection and she had me placed under observation for an extended period of time. The trouble mentally focusing, unsteadiness, and shaking were more pronounced this time and got worse after 45 minutes when I got up and walked to the car, but began to diminish rapidly that.

About 8 hours after injection, I began having pain on right side of back just under ribs. Pain worsened through night, causing difficult sleep. On evening of second day, pain spread to right flank and right front of abdomen, causing entire right side of abdomen to experience significant pain. It is possible this is muscular pain, but after reading the Internet, I believe it is inflammation of the gallbladder. I have never before experienced gallbladder issues. The pain is much worse than the "muscle aches" described as a COVID vaccine side effect. There is no fever or other significant symptoms. Today (third day) I emailed my doctor. His nurse responded that it is hard to tell if it is vaccine related, and that if it begins to resolve not to be concerned about it, but if it gets worse I should be seen by the doctor. I am taking Tylenol and applying Voltarin topically, but neither helps much.

There were no immediate reactions during the 15 minute wait period. 45 minutes after my injection, while at a different Walgreens where my friend received a Moderna jab, I was hit with a rush of side effects. The first was a deep gripping pain in the diaphragm area, like a punch to the stomach with some dizziness. While seated, my left leg experienced increasing pain from foot to hip. In short order, my left foot grew completely numb and this extended up my calf to my knee. My foot became paralyzed. Rather than go through a lengthy emergency room procedure, we drove back and luckily, the numbness did not spread. The intense leg pain remained steady. Breathing labored. At my friend's house, the left foot & calf numbing and paralysis finally subsided 4.5 hours after injection. At home, some numbness returned but subsided. Sat. through Wednesday, 2-28 to 3-3-21: Weakness in left leg. Cramping of calf muscle. The chest cavity pain began to intensify. Chills arrive plus daily headaches. These start to resemble reported "normal" reactions minus the special situation of the left leg. Pain while deeply inhaling, exhaling or bending increasing. Fatigue - partly from poor sleep. Thur. 3-4-21 Day 7: Still with strong muscle or lung pain, especially upper back. Painful to pull back shoulders. Periodic sharp pain in upper left inner arm, not at injection site. Still pain with deep exhale or inhale. Tried a short walk: After 200 feet, left calf tightening up and pain increasing in both hips. A short rest would clear it but would return with exercise. Lower back pain as well but some of that is pre-existing. Basic circle of pain around rib cage. Skin (or deeper tissue?) on my upper back still very sensitive, resembling sunburn. Produces chills when touched. Sleep still nearly impossible. No sleep aids being used. Fatigue, some headache and chills remain. During this period, I have resorted to pain relievers only twice in order to learn the nature of the symptoms. Fri. 3-5-21 Day 8 During this reaction period: NO fever, nausea, diarrhea, loss of taste / smell, sore throat, congestion or runny nose. Headache, chills, joint & ribcage pain remain.

Received 2nd dose of Pfizer COVID vaccine on 2/24/21. No reported adverse reaction at that time. On 3/10/21, developed worsening of chronic back pain. On day of event, took a dose of celecoxib and rivaroxaban (concurrently). He had been avoiding taken chronic celecoxib since at least the time of his last COVID-19 vaccination, and potentially took this fairly rarely due to concern for interaction with his DOAC. Beginning about 5 minutes after these medicaions were taken, patient felt weak/strange and asked his wife to take him to ED. In ED he was initially somnolent but arousable, but then developed hypotension and hypoxemia. Given IV benadryl initially, but then acutely worsened with development of facial, hand, and neck swelling. Reportedly had substantial "frothing at the mouth." Treated with SQ epinephrine, IV methylprednisolone, IV famotidine and was intubated with difficulty. Started on an epinephrine infusion due to persistent hypotension (dose up to 0.1 mcg/kg/min) and transferred to referral center ICU (reporting center). On arrival here, notable hand edema, some facial edema. Ventilator support rapidly weaned to minimal settings. Evaluation and hospitalization ongoing. Overall clinical assessment is anaphylactic reaction to celecoxib unrelated to COVID-19 vaccination.

The following day, Saturday, he had pressure low but not as low, again just watched and pushed fluids, and got better each day, fatigue got better that Saturday. No other incident following incident. Reporter called yesterday several people, cardiologist, transplant coordinator, PCP again to get advise and direction. She wanted to know whether this was an allergic reaction, even though it happened later, could he get the second shot, could it be worse following the second shot. The reporter was advised that their doctor/healthcare provider is in the best position to assess and advise as their doctor/healthcare provider was most familiar with the medical condition, clinical history, how the treatment had been conducted and any relevant information to the specific case.

difficulty breathing; low oxygen blood level; potassium level increased; extra fluid in his body; shivering and quaking and chills; nauseous and vomiting; nauseous and vomiting; Panic attack; was freaking out; soft pain in left side of chest; fast pulse; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (Patient's wife) A 71-year-old male patient received second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection, lot number: EW0151) on 10Apr2021 at 17:00 at single dose via an unspecified route of administration on arm right for COVID-19 immunization. It was informed that patient had vaccination on right arm because he had a dialysis fistula in his left arm. Relevant medical history included also ongoing End stage renal disease, dialysis on 13Apr2021. The patient received first dose of BNT162B2 (lot number: EP6955) and experienced arm pain and headache. Concomitant medications were not reported. On 11Apr2021 the patient experienced shivering and quaking and chills, nauseous and vomiting, panic attack, 'was freaking out', soft pain in left side of chest, fast pulse , all provided as non serious. On the same day 11Apr2021 the patient also experienced difficulty breathing, low oxygen blood level, potassium level increased and extra fluid in his body which led to the emergency room and admission to the hospital. Clinical course was described as follows: everything was going good until Sunday at 3:29 am. Her husband woke up shivering, quaking, and he was freaking out repeating oh my god, so she called emergency number. When her husband found out that she couldn't get into the ambulance with her husband and ride to the hospital, so her husband refused to go to the hospital. She states that her husband also felt nauseous and vomited in this period of time. She stated that he had no fever, though. So fast forward to 8:30 am her husband was having difficulty breathing, and she called again and this time they had 7 paramedics come out to the house. She states that all of them were very nice. An EKG was performed because patient reported that he had a soft pain in his left side of his chest. She states that everything was cool with that, except his pulse rate was high. She states that he also had low blood oxygen level. She states that they strapped in her husband in and drove him to the hospital to the ER. At the ER they discovered that potassium level increased and she said that he had some extra fluid in his body. He was a dialyses patient so they gave him dialysis on Sunday evening. He had calmed down at that point and they were constantly taking blood from him. She found out about the COVID vaccine had potassium and phosphate as active ingredients and her husband shouldn't have that. She also informed that they had to give him a tranquilizer because he was having a panic attack during this whole episode. She says that they gave him alprazolam. Patient doesn't know exactly when the side effects went away because he didn't have a clock or a phone. Patient's wife also clarified that he vomited twice before going to the hospital but then he felt like he had to vomit afterwards but he did not. She stated that his breathing problems didn't stop when paramedics came and gave him oxygen. They made it to their house by 8:40 am, and he still had low oxygen level, they were still giving oxygen the whole time he was in the hospital. The patient was discharged on 13Apr2021. At the time of the reporting event outcome was unknown.

Soon after he received the first dose of vaccine, his tongue and mouth became swollen and he could hardly talk. Then his Parkinson's symptoms became exacerbated. Extra Sinemet did not help. The next day he became suicidal, took more benzodiazepines, went for a walk, got dizzy, and disoriented. He lay down. Was not found for 6 hours. He woke up in intensive care unit. In ICU, he arrested. He was hospitalized for 3 weeks and eventually recovered. (11 days acute hospital, 10 days rehab hospital)

Extreme dizziness when waking up Thursday morning, and very tired. Could barely walk a straight line without holding on to something. Like I was drunk but not nauseous. 2nd day just as bad. 3rd day a bit better. Finally 4th day no dizziness but still a bit tired. My wife felt the same way, but 4th day still a little bit dizzy. Good friend near us woke up with the same dizziness. She too had the Pfizer shots.

A 71-year-old male patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Formulation: Solution for injection, lot number: EN6203; Expiration Date: Jun2021) dose 2 via an unspecified route of admin-istration on 07Mar2021 (at the age of 71-year-old) as single dose for covid-19 immunisation. The patient medical history included diabetes mellitus; he does not take medication for it. It was controlled by diet and exercise, high blood pressure, high lipids, herpes zoster from Oct2019, bell's palsy from Oct2019, herpes zoster oticus from Oct2019, paralysis, vertigo, ear disorder, paraesthesia oral and his tongue was tingly. Concomitant medications included alprazolam taken for sleep disorder, simvastatin taken for lipids increased, alprazolam (XANAX) taken for sleep disorder. The patient had his second shot last sunday and had a discussion had with his doctor's nurse this morning that centered around people taking the Moderna and had some issues with Bell's Palsy or some-thing like that and he wanted to call about what had happened. He has had overlapping stuff from cer-vical stenosis that manifests on the left side on his shoulder arm and hands and also about a year and half ago Oct2019 he had shingles in his ear and mouth on the left side of face. He had Bell's palsy and Ramsey Hunt syndrome number 2. He had paralysis, droopy mouth, eye wouldn't close, vertigo, ear issues, hearing drop and that recovered which was weird. He went to physical therapy until early last year before COVID then he was steered away from that. About 10 months ago some of the symptoms came back in a odd way. His eye had the feeling like it couldn't close. His eyelids had at night the muscles in his face on the left side face felt taut. The inside of his gum felt like his skin was thicker, he was not sure it was the sensation and that never went away. With the shingles he had an issue where down the side of his tongue was tingly, these things overlap and it was either very little or really an-noying. In last 10 months it had got quite a bit better until about 5-6 weeks ago it was back to where it was, it was just annoying on and off. Then he got the shot sunday, and it was weird at first, he was writing it off as both stress and relief and other things. He was not dizzy and that evening the left side of his mouth went bonkers, it wound up being like when the shingles were acting up on the inside of his mouth it felt tingly and weird, and it was confined to the left half of his face and nothing else. He did not have droopiness or any Bell's palsy kind of thing had gone away the Ramsey-Hunt syndrome, he says it was a series of things and he has number 2, he does not know what the other ones are, but it was something that comes along with the chicken pox or the herpes zoster virus. The stenosis, the cervical stenosis, the left is the main problem, but the right was not far behind with regard to nerve compression, the right does not bother him as much in the way of tingling and numbness. The weird thing is he had his hands sitting in his lap and he moved his thumb towards his forefinger, there was a couple inches between and it felt like there was a rubber band pulling his thumb back, it happened 2-3 times he was fooling around with it and it went away, the sensation was still there a little in the back ground, the rest of him the right side of him was fine and today is a lot better like he said things over lap so he is not saying anything has anything to do with the vaccine but he is operating under the as-sumption that if Moderna patients are having some issues with Bell's Palsy or something similar, if he has left over inflammation and in Nov2019, he had magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), when he first got sick and then he had another one done and his neurologist said on an unspecified date in Aug that he still sees some nerve inflammation particularly down jaw line, he saw inflammation from 2019 to 2020 he still seen inflammation and the upper part of his eye, the brow seems to behave as if there may be some inflammation running through it. His hand on the right is not doing the thing is his left thumb, it is being weird and the thing sunday night with his mouth. He thinks the whole idea is that the vaccine wakes up the immune system and gets it to recognize the RNA for COVID and generate anti-bodies and if it is acting like inflammation gets the body's attention, he is not a biologist but maybe it also caught on to his nerve inflammation and took a look at his nerves and cause them to bounce around and have other things occur that were more intense and he was trying to report to let some-one know that the underlying things left over from his shingles, he does not know about the rest of it because sleeping wrong could affect his neck shoulders and arms, he was not sure if it could be an is-sue with the vaccine, there was no clear definite thing, but the thing sunday night with his mouth was definitely far more, he thought this was the way he felt in his mouth a couple weeks after he got the shingles diagnosis like he had hives on inside of his cheek and tongue, it was crazy with extra salivation but he did not have the hives. The last time he got a vaccine it was the Shingrix it was probably too late last year, he got pretty sick off of it with flu like symptoms but he doesn't ever want another run in with shingles. It was his second COVID 19 vaccine he got 07Mar and it was the same day that the thing with his mouth happened and that was the most noticeable aspect of it, if he had not had the vaccine he would be sitting here right now just thinking he was having a bad day it runs down the left side of his tongue and stops smack in middle of the front of it. It jumps over sometimes but he was not sure if the nerve endings go on both sides of the tip of tongue or not. It has improved since sunday there was a span there where it was pretty annoying and he commented that he feels like it did when he first had shingles and over a period of time when he went to bed, whenever that was, it abated a bit. His second dose was EN6203 and it is dated Jun2021. The patient was sure they were trained to draw up the exact correct amount in there but he did not ask to look at it, it did not even occur to him. The only other thing is he was diabetic, he takes no medications for that it was diet and exercise controlled both of which COVID has been horrible for, his weight has gone up because they have a tough climate there, it has been cold for 2.5 months. It was finally starting to get a little better but the primary things he would have would be blood pressure, he takes medication for and the same for lipids he takes Simvastatin for that, the things many males his age are taking medication for. He also takes Alprazolam and Xanax to get to sleep at night, because his brain doesn't want to shut off, cost of being an engi-neer. He had one had case of sarcoidosis uncovered, there was only one node of it at the back of the trachea where it splits to go into the lungs. His pulmonologist was keeping track of it with X-ray and CT scans, the last time everyone looked in there, there was nothing left, the thing never changed since, it never showed up anywhere else. he does not know if that disappears but he never ended up getting it again. Apparently it shows up frequently in lungs but it did not with him. Those 2 things would be the top of the list type of things for him. He has never had cancer or blood disease, he had mononucleosis in college. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included computerized tomogram there was nothing left on. He had one case of sarcoidosis uncovered, there was only one node of it at the back of the trachea where it splits to go into the lungs. His pulmonologist was keeping track of it with X-ray and CT scans, the last time everyone looked in there, there was nothing left, magnetic res-onance imaging was an unknown results on Nov2019. He first got sick and then he had another one done , x-ray: there was nothing left on an unknown date.

I had my first Pfizer shot Jan 23, with minor muscle aches. After the second shot on 2/13, the next day, I had severe aches in my upper arms and upper legs at hip (which ached every time I sat down or stood up using those muscles). Once seated, my legs did not ache. The legs seem to be okay now. However, my upper arms still ache, particularly every night when I go to bed. I sleep on my side. I find that about 3-4 in the morning, it wakes me up because my arm is uncomfortable with aches and I move to the other side. It is hard to find a good position to place my arms that do not ache. During the day I do not notice it as much, although reaching behind my back is painful. Hands are starting to feel stiff.

Acute hypoxemic respiratory failure due to COVID-19,Respiratory failure. Sigmoid perforation with abscess. Hospital Course; 71-year-old male prolonged admission for acute hypoxic respiratory failure secondary to COVID-19. No history of colorectal adenocarcinoma with lung mets. Prior resection of bowel, prior chemotherapy. Required management in the ICU due to worsening respiratory failure over the time that he has been admitted to Hospital (20 days). He had remained on BiPAP therapy throughout that time, received appropriate corticosteroids, and antiviral therapies. Approximately 1-1/2 weeks ago he began to develop mild left lower quadrant abdominal pain. In the last 48 hours this is significantly worsened. CT abdomen and pelvis was obtained on Friday, which displayed pneumoperitoneum, sigmoid abscess with sigmoid perforation. There is a prior anastomotic site distal to this. Given his overall complexity he was to be medically managed to avoid the need for OR and intubation. He did well through the initial 24 hours of IV antibiotics, fluids and bowel rest. This afternoon he became increasingly dyspneic, required implementing nonrebreather mask, and subsequently developed severe rigors, tachycardia. I obtained a stat follow-up CT scan which shows similar findings of free air within the abdomen. Given signs of impending sepsis, BiPAP therapy was initiated, bolus IV fluids were given. Blood gas, blood counts, lactic acid are pending. He is receiving empiric Zosyn. I discussed this with general surgery, whom is well-known to the patient. In agreement the patient likely needs surgical intervention. However given his overall complexity and in light of the fact that this area surrounds the ureter, and we do not have urology coverage. It was felt he was most appropriate to be managed in Hospital. Case was discussed with Dr. at Hospital, patient will be transferred there via air transit. At this time his blood pressure appears stable, he is tachycardia, is currently on BiPAP which will be transitioned to CPAP for transport. He has received several doses of Dilaudid, for improved pain control. No further advancement of airway was performed prior to discharge. Case was discussed with family at length, all risks and benefits of transfer were discussed with wife and patient. It is recommended to involve pulmonary critical care services including surgical ICU care as if requiring surgery he is high likelihood for prolonged vent needs.

DETAILS OF HOSPITAL STAY Presenting Problem/History of Present Illness/Reason for Admission Respiratory failure, acute, Hospital Course; Patient is a 71 yr.. male with history of metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma with lung metastases, prior bowel resection and chemotherapy. The patient initially tested positive for Covid in early March. His symptoms at that time are mild and resolved. He was later vaccinated and that month. He started having severe symptoms again on 4/3 for which he presented to Hospital. Since that time, he has received full course of Remdesivir and steroids. He had a CT scan performed on 4/23 which revealed pneumoperitoneum secondary to presumed perforated sigmoid diverticulitis with focal sigmoid abscess. Patient was weaned down to minimal nasal cannula settings but somewhat suddenly earlier on 4/25 patient had increased work of breathing, became tachycardia, and had rigors. Hospital ordered repeat CT scan which showed similar findings in the abdomen. Patient had been maintained on Zosyn. Repeat labs were sent which were largely unremarkable. Given concerns for worsening sepsis and potential need for surgery, he was subsequently transferred Hospital. On admission to hospital, he had a normal lactic acid and no leukocytosis. He did not have evidence of peritonitis. The decision was made to treat his diverticulitis conservatively. However, early on 4/26 the patient started to develop a lactic acidosis. An extensive discussion was had with the patient and his wife regarding surgery and the possibility the patient may never be able to separate from the vent given his worsening Covid pneumonia. The patient elected to undergo an exploratory laparotomy with with segmental resection of distal descending and loop transverse colostomy. However, as the days progressed the patient had worsening respiratory status that required deep sedation, paralytics and proning all of which were unsuccessful in maintaining his oxygen saturation greater than 88%. His wife, knowing that he would not want to have a prolonged course on the ventilator, elected for transition to palliative extubating with comfort care on 4/30 and the patient expired roughly 10 minutes after extubation.

This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient's daughter). This consumer reported similar events for three patients. This is the first of three reports. A 71-year-old male patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Lot Number: EN6202), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in left arm on 01Mar2021 (at 71-year-old) as dose 2, single for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included that he had the cholesterol of a twenty year old, the month prior to getting the second vaccine, he had a yearly work up of his heart and cholesterol and all that, they put a heart monitor on him to be sure everything was fine with that, and he had gotten a clean bill of health. He had never had any sort of medical situation or even surgeries until two years ago (2019), when he had a knee replacement, and he had a history of shingles, he got about fifteen years ago (2006) and they never really went away, so he's had on and off for the past fifteen years. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. The patient previously received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Lot Number: EL9267), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in left arm on 10Feb2021 (at 71-year-old) as dose 1, single for COVID-19 immunisation. The patient had two strokes on 19Mar2021 (reported as eighteen days after his second vaccine) and has been in the hospital ever since. He has developed anemia, he had muscle atrophy, and he was experiencing persistent fevers. He said that its like his blood was fighting/contradicting himself and they were pretty sure that it was from the vaccine. He already had 1 blood transfusions and his white blood cells were low and his ANC (absolute neutrophil count) was normal. Caller said nothing medically makes sense. She said it's like the vaccine changed the protein in the blood. The patient has had test after test after test, has had strokes in the medulla cerebellum, his hemoglobin won't stay above seven, he's had multiple blood transfusions, with signs of inflammation and infectious disease, but nothing in his body told them. No scans, blood tests, surgery, biopsies, ultrasound, he's literally had every test. Caller added patient was dying, and they didn't know why. He remained hospital from 23Mar2021 until he went home on 15Apr2021. While in rehab, patient started developing fever of unknown origin, that they can't figure out. On 25Apr2021, the patient went to the emergency room. He was home ten days and was declining that whole time, with fever up and down, lost cognition, really confused, which they thought was a result of stroke, but he was declining rapidly. He had fell a bunch, started losing muscle, muscle started atrophying at that point. When they took him in on the 25Apr2021, it's because his blood pressure dropped, another issue that started all of this, he could not maintain his blood pressure, if he sat up and moved, it would drop. And that day when he tried to stand and it dropped and he slid down. They took him to the emergency room and he had a potassium deficiency and they gave him potassium. He went home that day after the potassium. Then on 27Apr2021, he went back to hospital, into their emergency room, and spent a couple days in the ER, but was admitted into a room once available and stayed until 15May2021, when they transferred him from there.

He came to my room and he said to me, we can rule out that you didn't had a mini stroke, he says everything is fine. He says I really think it's the shot that you got or the one or two has caused it, he said that the Pfizer shot or the, you know, whatever he read where it does affect your nerve ending and he is saying it could have been a nerve ending or something coming from under my armpit over, but today I didn't have none of them attack but I am, my light headed and my breathing are hard, I mean, I can breathe, my lungs are okay, they took an X-ray my lungs and everything.

Several hours after 2nd vaccine shot my lungs began to ache. Not adverse pain, or breathing problems-- just s subtle ache. This continue for 3 - 4 days. No interruption of daily activities-- just that quiet ache. Heavier breathing upon exertion, but not interrupting routine. Though the aching is over, my breathing never fully recovered. I'm not a medical professional-- but estimating I lost 15% ish of my breathing/capacity. This doesn't interfere with daily activities, but is "present" with me all the time. Even walking the dog requires a brief slow down.

It was maybe in his muscles; Shortness of breath; Headache; Little fever; Whole body from his neck, back, toes, and arms went to aching all the way down; Nervous; Tired feeling; could not sleep from the pain; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer. This is a 72-years-old male consumer (patient) reported that he received 1st dose of BNT162B2 (COVID-19 VACCINE; lot EW0164; expiry date 31Aug2021) on 17Apr2021 0920 for COVID-19 Immunization. He took an arm out of his sleeve and they asked him which arm. He said his right arm and they gave it in the muscle section. They did a couple taps and said he might feel a little pinch. Medical history included COVID-19 from 30Dec2020 (tested positive on 30Dec2020, It shuts the whole body down. He could not even get his bowels to move. His doctor said it was because Covid affects the whole body system.) and Covid pneumonia (it attacked his lungs. He was in the hospital for 2 days. He came out of it and the CDC guidelines said to wait 90 days before he got his first shot of the Covid vaccine), blood pressure, cyst, stomach problem, allergic to penicillin (He had a penicillin shot years ago and he broke out all over. His mom said not to take it. He had rashes all over his body.), glaucoma. Family history included diabetic. Before his mom and dad passed they were healthy. His dad was 92 and his mom was 90. Everything was good. His mom was diabetic, and his dad was perfectly healthy. Other medical condition included with his lungs he has something they call psychodosis or something like that. He is going through a lot of problems with his stomach. They did tests and X-rays and different things to see what was going on inside his stomach and chest. It has been years, he has had the lung problems for awhile. He has shortness of breath and something with his thyroid or lymph nodes. That has been for a while. He had X-rays and a CT back in January when he was in the hospital. Those were on the 12th and were of his chest. They took the X-rays on the 13th. He had 2 to 3 chest x-rays and one CT. The last chest X-ray he had was in February to see how the pneumonia was doing. His doctor said it was looking better and to just move slower and take things easy. Past drugs included blood pressure pills (propazol or something like that). All of this started with whatever happened to his body after he had Covid-lung problems and everything. He was told to keep taking whatever medications he was on. He was not on any antibiotics or anything. They gave him antibiotics for a cyst he had, but he did not take those. They were too strong, and he stopped those about 2 to 3 weeks before he had the shot. He only took 3. The patient had tried feeling, headache, little fever, nervous, shortness of breath, Whole body from neck, back, toes, and arms went to aching all the way down on 17Apr2021. The shortness of breath started between 1300 and 1330. The pain was before everything else starting between 1600 and 1700. The headaches and stuff got him up at 0200 to 0300 and then he could not sleep from the pain. Everything else comes and goes but the pain was the longest. He sat for close to 40 minutes after the shot because he did not want to leave early. He was tired because he had to do the Covid test walk. He had the Covid test which was negative. Then he had to do a walk at about 1330 to determine if he should still be on oxygen. He had been on oxygen for about 2 to 3 months as he previously had Covid pneumonia. He had dropped his level to 91 when they put him in the hospital. Everything was better now. It was a little better once he came back home. It was because he had to do a 6 minute walk. He had a tired feeling because 6 minutes after the shot they had to determine if he still needed oxygen or not. He told the tech he just had the shot and asked if he should do the test. They said he had to do it. They sat him down and were checking his heart rate and oxygen level. He also had a headache and a little fever. Later that afternoon he came home at about 1600 to 1700. He was okay all that day and ate a little and got ready for bed. Once he laid in bed his whole body from his neck, back, toes, and arms went to aching all the way down. He thought it had to be this shot. He took Tylenol and tried to lay down. 0300 that morning he thought he might have to go to emergency. The paper said those are some of the side effects that he would probably experience. He got up and got nervous like he was getting ready to shake a bit and started walking. The pain was still there in his body. He tried to be calm and not panic. He took another Tylenol. He could not lay flat. He had to push his bed up to the wall and put a pillow on his back and the back of his neck to sleep straight up. Sunday morning things got a little better and he went out. He came back in at about 1200. Between 1400 to 1500 his symptoms came back. He thought he should go to emergency, but he did not go and waited. He took another Tylenol. It was between 1500 and 1600 that it all cleared up. It had to be from the shot. He did not get any pain when they gave him the shot, he had no pain in his arm. Then something broke loose and his whole body was aching, his back, everywhere, from his legs to his toes. It was maybe in his muscles. He talked to a lot of people and his neighbors who had it and they felt nothing. Another lady said after she had it she only had one hour of sleep and could not sleep from it either. The same thing happened to him. The headache did not last long. He took Tylenol for it. The only thing that lasted long was the body aches. He held off going to the emergency and it cleared up. He was going to go to the emergency Monday morning. The aches were gone now. The only pain now was one that he had all the time before that. This was altogether different because his body ached all the way down his back, arms, hands, legs, feet, toes, everything. The fever went away the same day. Only the pain lasted long. Even the nervousness went away. His body was beginning to shake. All of this was probably created from the vaccine. They said if he experienced pain to take Tylenol. He was taking these before he had the shot. All he can see on the bottle is 30047112. His kids brought this to him back in February of this year when he had Covid. Lot: SLA065, expiration date: Aug2024. They are 500mg, 100 count. The seals were not broken or anything, he always checks that out before he takes it. He checks everything out to see if anything is damaged. Outcome of the events tired, headache, fever, nervous was recovered on 17Apr2021, event whole body aching was recovered on 18Apr2021. No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information is expected.

Pain began about 6 hours after injection in both my shoulders and neck. As it intensified it spread throughout my body: down my left arm into my wrist, to my back and hip area (i have had issues here for 20 years), into my knees and ankles and into my left calf muscle. Further, it gave me a bad headache. i was so uncomfortable I got very little sleep that night. It continued into the following day and didn't begin to subside until about 4:00 pm. The pain in my left shoulder and arm continued off and on until today, 03/19/2021, and was at it's worst when laying down and first thing in the morning upon waking up. (see continuation page) 5/24 follow-up: Apparently I was a bit too quick in my assumptions of things calming down and going away. I am still experiencing many of the problems as noted above and a new one. These problems are not continuous but rather come and go but never completely disappear. And in the last couple of weeks I'm now having issues with my fingers and my trigger-finger issues have been awakened along with some other finger soreness not attributable to the trigger-finger.

On 03/23/2021 I had the second dose and I had a little bit of sore arm and a little bit lethargic for about 7-8 hours. On 05/04/2021 I woke up at 6:30 am and I felt just fine so I went back to sleep and woke up again at 8:30 and right away I knew something was wrong, I felt really weird. I could not hear, I lost hearing on my right ear for about 24 hours. I started to get vertigo and started to throw up and I vomited for about an hour. My wife decided to take me to the ER and they did an MRI and determined the stroke was in my cerebellum and that would explained the vertigo but that do not explained the hearing of loss. They gave me a blood thinner and diuretic. They thought is was Ménière's disease because of the hearing loss but after doing the MRI and CAT scan they determined it was a stroke. I was in the hospital for 3 days. I still have some balance problems and dizziness but I am getting better gradually.

Injection not given in deltoid but rather into shoulder. Day after injection I had anterior shoulder pain and could not lift my arm. It progressively got worse. Went to all around the shoulder area and extreme/piercing when moving arm and shoulder. Also clicking on movement. It has been over 5 months, and I am still dealing with this. Saw Dr. (family doctor) in March. Xray done and referred to ortho doc at Ortho clinic (Dr.). Dr. prescribed an anti-inflammatory med. Dr. stated because the pain was from a shot and not injury, this med might work. He additionally suggested steroid injections if it did not work. Also suggested physical therapy. I chose home physical therapy to no avail. It is now June 29th and I am still having difficulty driving and difficulty performing other day to day activities.

My COVID Vaccine Experience My wonderful experience with the COVID vaccine (Pfizer) began on April 6, 2021 when I received my first dose at the Hospital and all was well for the time being. My second dose was administered on April 27, 2021 again that the and all seemed well again. However, within two weeks an old place on my right leg that had healed opened up just like an open wound and I went to the emergency room after trying to get it to heal without success. At the Emergency Room they cleaned the wound and applied what was called a wet/dry bandage, which consisted of a ball of gauze soaked in sterilized water and then a dry flat gauze to cover the wet one. On top of that, gauze was wrapped around the leg to hold the others in. Finally, an Ace bandage was placed over the entire bandage to hold it all together. I asked the nurse how often this bandage should be changed and was told twice daily and to soak the gauze in sterilized water. I was also shown how to make sure there were no contaminates on the top of the bottle. After leaving the hospital armed with a prescription and some gauze pads and some water I preceded to Walmart to get the prescription filled. I found the gauze pads and rolled gauze at Walmart while waiting for the prescription but no sterilized water. The water was the toughest thing to find, it took two days and visits to CVS and Walgreens (all five local stores) and found it at the last store. I took the prescription as directed and that first night slept for over 12 hours (I normally sleep 2-4 hours a night). I woke up and threw up, had diarrhea and was tired. I preceded to go back to sleep and slept for another 10 hours. After waking and taking my meds I started sleeping for over 10 hours a night and am tired all day, feel like I?m going to fall asleep, even while driving. I did as the nurse suggested and changed the bandage twice a day for a week until I went to the wound therapy at the hospital. There I found that as I told the nurse and the doctor that the scab would not form because of the bandage being changed twice daily as instructed, they told me to discontinue that and to use what they gave me that would not take the forming scab off when changing the bandage which consisted of a special medicated mesh and then a stick-on bandage. They also had some of the same sent through FED-EX, the next day, to make the wound get better, and it did. After a week I went back to the wound therapy at the hospital and the doctor saw an improved wound and pronounced it cured. He cancelled any further visits and the ultra-sounds that he originally had ordered because he thought I had a problem with my blood vessels and that was why it didn?t start to heal in a week. Actually, I think it was the advice of the original nurse that said to change the wet/dry gauze twice daily that would not allow the wound to start healing. They also told me I could use something like Neosporin where the other nurse said to only use the sterilized water. I am praying that I no longer have to be afflicted by this problem as most of it, in my opinion, was a direct result of getting the COVID vaccine. I am still sleeping over 10 hours a night and am tired all day even though I took all the meds and should be getting back to my normal routine. I also now have to urgently use the toilet urgently to evacuate my colon. I know I have other health problems but I believe that they were secondary to the COVID reactions and have not been affected by it as yet. As a side note, I donated the sterilized water to someone that needs it in an inhaler. The gauze pads and rolls will keep for further necessities. Because I personally hate to use the word ?I? and must apologize for using it this many times.

At that time, they got the shots in big air guns and was shot 3-4 at a time. Had those 3-4 shots during his basic training. During that time, he woke up around midnight and had awful case of hives and was taken to the base hospital and was given adrenaline in one arm and diphenhydramine hydrochloride (BENADRYL) in the other); allergies to sulfa drugs; diagnosed allergies (unspecified); compromised immune status; respiratory illness; genetic/chromosomal abnormalities; endocrine abnormalities (including diabetes and obesity); blood stools, rare occasion; glasses. Prior to the vaccination, the patient was not diagnosed with COVID-19. The patient had no concomitant medications. The patient did not receive any other vaccines within four weeks prior to the vaccination or on the same day as the vaccination. The patient received the first dose on 04Mar2021 at about 11:15. He had not had much of a reaction, just a little soreness and soreness (04Mar2021). The soreness started that afternoon of getting the vaccine. When he went to sleep, he noticed the soreness was in right arm, so he didn't lay on that side. He noticed it enough to sleep on the other side. On 07Mar2021, the patient had bloody stools, which were a rare occasion in the past. The patient stated the blood was significant enough to draw his attention, almost felt like a blockage in the system. The patient "sat on the pot" for 15-20 minutes and broke into a sweat (07Mar2021). The patient did not know if he had bloody stool then, because he didn't turn on the light, but ever since then, it has been bloody. No BM's (bowel movement) since yesterday (09Mar2021). The patient was tired yesterday (09Mar2021). He just laid around all day on a heating pad. He had a dull ache in stomach since it started (07Mar2021). Still there today, but not that bad. The patient stated he had radiation treatment for early stage prostate cancer, they tried to prevent burning or damaging the rectum, but this could be related to that. On Sunday night (07Mar2021), about midnight, he got an awful, awful stomach pain that woke him up about midnight. He tried to move his bowels 2-3 times Sunday night (07Mar2021) and on Monday morning (08Mar2021) he was able to move them a little bit. His underwear he had from Sunday night had lots of red stains in them, and all day Monday (08Mar2021) he was having a bellyache. Every time he managed to move his bowels and it was bloody and seemed to get bloodier pretty much all day. Yesterday (09Mar2021), he laid on a heating pad and went to bed early about 20:30, he usually goes about 22:00. He managed to stay in bed for about 9 hours, and he usually can't sleep that long. He slept on his side. He started having dark thoughts (unspecified date Mar2021), stating that last Spring and early Summer he went through treatment for 45 days with external beam radiation therapy (EBRT). On Monday night (08Mar2021), the patient had terrible cramps about midnight, with very cold sweat and diarrhea. The next morning (09Mar2021), every bowel movement was very bloody. Then all day Tuesday (09Mar2021) very lethargic. No more bowel movements until the following Friday. The patient stated he felt like I was trying to pass a blood clot. The patient stated he seemed to have problems with bowels all day yesterday (09Mar2021) and was not much better; he had really low energy (09Mar2021). Today (10Mar2021), he seemed to feel better, but not much. He had not eaten much (Mar2021) and was hesitant to put food in his system, since his system was not functioning very well. The patient had not been seen by doctor or in an emergency room. His wife was a retired nurse, and they have discussed if he was not better, they were going to call his primary care provider and urologist. The patient had coffee this morning (10Mar2021), and he barely touched it yesterday morning. So far, no bloody discharge, no discharge or bowel movements today. Three to four times in the night he did pass gas (Mar2021), and that was all that happened. The patient knew side effects were rare with this (vaccine) and unsure if these side effects were something reported; this was certainly unusual for him. The clinical outcome of bloody stools, dull ache in stomach, had really low energy, terrible cramps, very cold sweat, diarrhea, tired, and lethargic was recovering. The outcome of belly ache, decreased appetite, and gas, was not recovered. The outcome of other events was unknown. It was also reported that since the vaccination, the patient had not been tested for COVID-19.

Allergic reaction; He said the floor doesn't look steady to me which meant he was a little weak or dizzy; He said the floor doesn't look steady to me which meant he was a little weak or dizzy; Forehead was dripping and it was cold, so the cold sweat coming from the forehead; His feet bothered him after that shot, he couldn't really describe what it was, but he told me it went right down to his feet and that's probably why he didn't feel right; Excessive tired to the point that he didn't want to go to work; Saliva for a week and a half, it's just saliva in his mouth that kept on foaming up; Didn't feel well; He didn't feel like he was standing on solid ground. It was him that wasn't solid; Headache; This is a spontaneous case received from a contactable consumer reported behalf of her husband. A 73 years old patient received 1st dose of BNT162B2 (lot/Batch: EN6206) on 13Mar2021 at single dose on left arm for covid-19 immunization. Medical history was High blood pressure (Treatment of high blood pressure: "Lisinopril dose one a day and dose is 12.5 according to it, it says here is HCTZ 10-12.5 mg it's oral tablet takes one at breakfast time); And then something else he takes because we had a storm earlier in summer, he was working where he works and wind just blew him face down into concrete side wall, but he put his arm up to resist it off, so he has been back and forth with his neurologist on this." There is another one that he does take because of hitting the side walk when I told him the wind blew him the side walk, he put his arm up but he gets a little dizzy once in a while because of that. It's Meclizine 25 mg, tablet, afternoon and evening 2 times a day." Concomitant drugs included Lisinopril, HCTZ and Meclizine. This past three weeks ago, 'my husband and I' (not clear) had our first injection for the Pfizer and within 4 minutes he was showing all kinds of reaction to it and he know he does not have reactions to very much of anything. I have no idea like it was something within the Pfizer medication that he was allergic to, allergic reaction. He stood on the floor I didn't figure out why he was standing up, he said the floor doesn't look steady to me which meant he was a little weak or dizzy whatever I don't know, so I reached over and I looked at his forehead and I said his forehead was dripping and I touched his forehead and it was cold, so the cold sweat coming from the forehead." He was excessively tired for almost 2 weeks. Like I said he kept on standing up the couple of times and I said what's the matter and he said I don't feel like I am standing on a solid ground and I said yes you are, then he told me a few days later that his feet bothered him after that shot, he couldn't really describe what it was, but he told me it went right down to his feet and that's probably why he didn't feel right. So, anyway I end up calling over an RN and she and another RN had to take him over to take his blood pressure, his blood pressure went down and now only he had high blood pressure, he took his medication (Unspecified Medication) that morning like he always does and it went down to 107/70 and when they gave him a small bottle of water to drink and they said just stand up and take it. Took the medication stood up and it was 132/80, it was probably more than his normal. So, I mean I couldn't understand what was happening that he was tired through, excessive tired to the point that he didn't want to go to work, so I mean I didn't question what's wrong specially when I looked over and his forehead just dripping, for approximate 4 minutes after the injection. So, I mean I really don't know to have been that way. Then often had, he told me he had 'more' (not clear) saliva for a week and a half, it's just saliva in his mouth that kept on foaming up. I had noted to if this was anything that was never him, he has never had lot of saliva in his mouth anyway. But, this side of him of course it showed it was working and that lasted almost 2 weeks as well, 2 week I think 2 weeks. And now he is starting to feel better but he didn't feel well but better than 2 weeks after the first injection. I had taken that was on 13th, 13th took him to his doctor and he recommended to not take a second one. He felt very weak, I mean this took 2 weeks to go away. He did mention that when he stood up he didn't feel like he was standing on solid ground and I know this as I have been there probably for more than 50 years, so of course he was. He received them, his blood pressure dropped to a 107/70 went that down, changing back to 132/80, actually they gave him a bottle of water in between and he did drink water for it so. And his forehead was dripping cold sweat and he told me later that he felt something strange in feet and that's why he was standing up I couldn't figure that part out in fact he was on solid floor or solid ground, so I am thinking the weakness set in him very quickly. So, that he was really dizzy, I don't know and that's why I said I called over the RN and she grabbed another RN and they helped him over to take his blood pressure they took it down it was almost 107/70. Now if he has got high blood pressure, it just the blood pressure going to be really in morning and this is at 5:30 at night, doesn't mean like and he is a lot to me. And he had excess saliva in his mouth seem to be foaming in his mouth. I don't know if you had any of these reactions or unless it's just him I really don't know. When probed for the start date of the events (event not specified), reporter stated, "Approximate 5:39, maybe 5:39, 5:40 in the evening which was last month, that on the 13th." Reporter confirmed that patient would not go for second dose of vaccine and that reporter is due for second dose on this Saturday. And according to what I understand and what I was told 107/70 wasn't trending down, to me it was, but I am not a doctor nor a nurse or any other professional to have said not in medical field but when his forehead started dripping cold sweat and he was acting little strange and standing up and what is wrong because I was right next to him, I said what is wrong, he said I feel like I am falling down. The biggest one that bothers him beside being also retired for 2 weeks. He keeps on getting this foam in his mouth from saliva, excess saliva foam and that has no idea what's close to. High blood pressure, he had taken that tablet (Unspecified Medication) that morning. Actually the tiredness is gone away, the blood pressure is back to normal, like I said he was absolutely tired for 2 weeks and I think it coincide with Pfizer's 1 to 2 days. He is also having a headache and he just take Tylenol for that. Outcome of the event was unknown. No follow up attempts needed. Information about lot/ batch number not requested.

Patient did not report this event to the vaccination site for several months, which is why the report is just now being submitted. Below is the exert from an email that patient sent me. Upon asking his PCP about the reaction, he was instructed to reach out to the vaccination site to report the event. "I received my first Pfizer shot on January 28, 2021 at 2:00PM. felt fine when I left after the fifteen minutes waiting period. I felt fine when I went to work the next morning. However, when I returned home from work at about 1:00 PM I did not feel well. My legs were very weak, upset stomach, headache, rash and some fever. I stayed on the couch the remainder of Friday and slept, I slept on Saturday for a total of approximately 22hrs and the same on Sunday. I went to work on Monday even though I still did not feel very good. It was several more days until I felt near normal. About 10 days after the first shot, both of my feet began to swell and my toes began to turn purple and black. My feet became extremely painful. I went to the emergency room where they drew blood and said I had gout. I was given a prescription for a 5 day packet of steroids. That helped, but my feet reverted back to the swelling and extreme pain within 1 day of no steroids. I contacted my primary care doctor who prescribed an additional 10 day packet of steroids plus two other prescriptions that I do not remember. I was in extreme pain and needed a walker to function. I have had two follow up visits to my primary care doctor. He did blood work which showed several results were outside of the normal range, however the gout indicator was within the normal range. My RA level was 32 which is very high. And, never have had my RA factor number high prior to the shot. He referred me to a RA specialist, but the appointment is still months away. My feet are still somewhat swollen and walking is very uncomfortable and a little unsteady. Before the shot, I was doing well. My blood work was fine. It has been almost 4 months and I still do not know when my feet will return to normal. I am no longer using a walker. My Primary Care doctor advised me to report my adverse reactions." Patient did received his 2nd Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine on 2/25/2021. He states he "did not experience any effects from the second shot". At this point I am not sure if the COVID-19 vaccine is the culprit with patients RA level, but did want to report this event since patient indicates the timing of the vaccination and his symptoms appear related.

Other than a rough night. All this time I had been rehydrating frequently - trying to keep pace with discharge . . . (fizzy water - no additives) sometimes cut with a very little cranberry juice. Since then BRAT and now back to almost normal. 4lb lighter . . . That's good.

Couldn't get comfortable; Fatigued; Chills; Didn't think he was being a good driver; He was feeling irritated; Sensing anger and aggression in himself; Skin was very, very irritated; This is a spontaneous report received from a contactable consumer (reporting on himself). A 74-years-old male patient received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Formulation: Solution for injection, Lot Number: EL9263 and Expiration Date was not reported) via an unspecified route of administration on 17Feb2021 (at the age of 74-year-old) as single dose for COVID-19 immunization.

First day he got the COVID-19 vaccine, by late afternoon his skin was feeling very, very irritated. He was feeling irritated. Started sensing aggression and anger in himself. Couldn't get comfortable. Doesn't know if this is an expected result because he hasn't seen this. Started to get extremely tired. Did have to lay down a couple times later that afternoon to early evening. Worse thing was his whole body felt irritated. 18Feb2021 (Yesterday), he didn't have the same feeling. He had a very good morning. Early afternoon started feeling chills and couldn't get warm. Got into bed with big quilts. Chill sensation lasted two to three hours. Sees that chills are an expected result. 19Feb2021 (Today), so far he has had a good day. He is fatigued now this afternoon. That would be the extent of anything unusual for him. Most concerning was how he was feeling the first day. He doesn't think he was being a good driver at the time. Probably thinks there should be a recommendation to try and not drive or have a designated driver. Patient would like to know if the anger and aggression was within the range of expected results. Stated he doesn't know if there was real value in knowing it at this time unless there are booster shots that come out in the next year or so. Stated he wanted to report to Pfizer so it was known there are other things than what was being seen. The outcome of the events was unknown.

general sense of weakness; Short of breath; bum knee and nose; bum knee and nose; covid insomnia; nose bleeds; His knee was really a beautiful shade of purple; couldn't move fast enough to get one foot in front of the other; pounding headache; muscle pain and joint pain; lethargy; general tiredness; brain fog; muscle aches and chills; muscle aches and chills; Feeling unwell; lost his balance; fell; dizziness and stiffness; dizziness and stiffness; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 74-year-old male patient received the second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE; Formulation: Solution for injection; Lot number: ER8732) via an unspecified route of administration at right shoulder on 27Mar2021 as single dose for covid-19 immunization. The patient concomitant medications includes, zolpidem tartrate (AMBIEN CR 12.5mg) still ongoing for insomnia, taking it from years as patient comes from family of insomniacs & high-pressure jobs; triazolam (HALCION) (0.25mg) still ongoing for sleep, rivaroxaban (XARELTO) (20mg) started taking in 2012 for pulmonary embolism & has been on blood thinners, aspirin acetylsalicylic acid (low dose aspirin of 65mg) for supplemental blood thinner still ongoing. Patient has history of seasonal allergies and its prime time right now so its compounding. Relevant medical history includes, both knee replacement, pulmonary embolism, bad blood pressure problems maybe 5 years ago all on an unspecified date. The patient historical vaccine included the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE, Lot number: EN6198), at Right shoulder on 06Mar2021 as single dose for covid-19 immunization. On 27Mar2021, When the patient got home from his shot, he had no problems at all and he went to bed. Being an old guy, he got up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom and he lost his balance and took a nasty fall, so has a bummed up knee and stuff too, so that is what aggravates it. He clarifies he has a bum knee and nose after having the fall. Since he took the fall and has the bum knee, it is kind of a chore going up and down stairs. On 28Mar2021 the patient experienced general sense of weakness , general tiredness. It has been over a week and he wants to know if that is unusual. Patient adds there was kind of a brain fog thing From: 28 Mar 2021 going on. The brain fog concerns him because he has to get his taxes done. He was still having trouble with the nose bleeds, which sort of compounds his misery, but he is getting better. It seems the side effects are getting incrementally better every day, but its not like he wakes up and its completely gone. It's like some prolonged illness. His side effects are getting marginally better. He is fairly clear headed today and he even had the nerve to take a short drive to the supermarket and stuff, although he wouldn't want to drive cross country in terms of being able to concentrate. But doing his taxes, will take a little work. Patient stated in the beginning he had muscle aches and chills from: 28Mar2021, but that went away after a day or two. Patient stated he had muscle aches/chills for a couple of days. He feels he has recovered completely as far as he knows. He never had nausea. On an Unspecified date patient mentions feeling a little short of breath, but states that could be more of the asthma thing. He does not recall having injection site pain at all. The tiredness is definitely ongoing, but has improved. He clarifies it has probably improved incrementally but doesn't really want to classify it as improvement because it might be temporary. He did not have a headache until he was waiting on the phone to speak to this call handler. On 28Mar2021 the patient experienced muscle pain for a few days and that sort of cleared up. This was the same with joint pain. After the big bang, clarified as the fall, everything proceeded. He still feels the muscle and joint pain, only in his knee, but its starting to fade. His knee was really a beautiful shade of purple, but it seems to be fading and hurting less so that is recovering, too. This pain is secondary. The side effect was the dizziness, stiffness, and inability to keep his balance. Caller states he was stiff as a board and he just couldn't move fast enough to get one foot in front of the other, and he landed on his knee, so the pain in his knee was not directly caused by shot. He felt fine at the center where he took the shot. He had to wait 15-20 minutes after the shot. He felt fine, drove home, went to bed, and in the middle of the night, it all started. He still feels a little dizzy and unsure and has been using a cane. He got both knees replaced and is worried that he damaged the actual replacement joint as opposed to just the muscle tissue. He just doesn't trust himself without the cane. He hasn't fallen over and hasn't passed out. He feels stiff all over but that could be from not getting to the gym and working out and not doing his regular work outs. Patient stated that the lethargy might be slightly better. He was making himself do more but he still gets really tired and it was really hard for him to get motivated, like to get out of the chair and go downstairs. He went to the supermarket and had to unload his car in stages- he took the perishables out and rested for a while and then went back out and got another couple of bags and then rested again. He just could not work straight through like he normally does. States he is in pretty good shape normally. He does not feel particularly great and that is the reason that he called to find out if this should last this long. Patient stated that he does have high blood pressure and heart problems. In fact at the end of the month, he will be going in for a catherization with Dr. (Name) so that was another reason he wants to have this stuff cleared up and out of the way. He still has dizziness and weakness. Patient stated that last night was the first night of decent sleep he had got. He has insomnia actually and he takes two sleep medications, but even taking those and washing it down with a glass of wine, he could not sleep for a whole week. He clarifies even with the Halcion and Ambien CR, it didn't work for a whole week- he could not sleep which adds to the brain fog. Typically, he goes to sleep, wakes up after a couple of hours, and then he is awake so he reads for a few hours and then takes the second medication and then sleep the rest of the night. He ends up getting a full 8-9 hours of sleep normally and he did that last night. On 08Apr2021 he developed a pounding headache but it was probably independent of the shot. He took Tylenol and he is okay now, but he just thought it was ironic that he had one while waiting to talk to Pfizer when he hadn't had one before. Outcome of the events muscle pain and joint pain, dizziness and stiffness, Feeling unwell were ongoing and those of other events were unspecified. No further information was provided or obtained

The triage team gave him shots and he went to the emergency room (ER) and ended up spending the night in the hospital. It was further reported that they gave him an epinephrine (EpiPen) and some other shot in the left arm and diphenhydramine (BENADRYL) in the right arm and put on oxygen on him. He was admitted to the hospital and released the next day. He was given the option to leave the next day and so he did. The doctor explained, they were concerned it was cardiac related, but did blood work and told them he was fine on an unspecified date in 2021. The doctor also told him they saw a rash on the left ankle on 04Mar2021 and therefore knew it was an allergic reaction. The rash on ankle was barely visible the next day, it had resolved though, but was not sure of the exact date. He couldn't have seen it anyway. There had also been other issues since then. He remarked that he moved things, but couldn't remember where he moved them on an unspecified date in 2021. On an unspecified date in Mar2021, the hypersensitive on certain frequencies was reported as worsened. Regarding the patient's hearing, he explained that while in church, they were playing music and it was pure pain. He went to the clinic and saw an otolaryngologist, who told him that his hearing was hypersensitive on certain frequencies, not all though. He stated he had this before, but never with music at the church or like this. He was in the car and a car beside him with heavy base playing was giving him issues; the same kind of the pain, but on the opposite end with base. This was something new and not like he had before. It was ongoing and he had not gone back to church, so as not to experience this again. This started within a week or 2 after the second shot. Since the shots on an unspecified date in Mar2021, his vision was compromised. There were upper and lower areas, "sweet spots," he could see. With his last check up, the vision in the lower section had shrunk even more; where he could see from about the 3:30 to 8:30 area before, currently it was from 5:00 to 7:00. He explained this was like on a clock. Also he was able to see the big E at the top of a vision chart, but in Mar2021 after the second shot, he noticed within days, he could no longer see the large E. He had a regularly schedule appointment a couple weeks after the second shot and this was noticed. It had gotten worse. Additionally, he would stand in front of the eye chart and as part of the eye exam, they would hold out fingers to see if he could see them. Last year at 6 feet (ft), he could see them, but currently, he couldn't see them until 2 ft away. If he was in bright light, he had severe eye pain, to the point of crying. He had to leave and get out of that situation, it was so bad. Even going outside with a hat and sunglass without looking at bright light, it still impacted him. The lighting in his bathroom bothered him; he had to have the blinds closed and was home bound. His closet was the only way to get relief. This was all new since the Covid shot. On an unspecified date in 2021, the residual neuropathy in feet was reported as worsened. He had this previously, but currently had hypersensitive in his feet in those areas. The patient found some essential oils that help so he could get to sleep and keep it from itching in his feet. The patient was deducting that for whatever reason, it was impacting nerve areas that had issues previously. It was causing them to get worse. He could only find this commonality; the optic, auditory, and residual neuropathy, the shot was aggravating these things that he already had problems with previously. It was added that he had also noticed his eyes had a throbbing pain, like a feeling of wanting to explode. He has had this in the past, but not too often and currently, it was daily and it was getting worse. It started about 3 weeks after, but it didn't happen often at first. Currently, it was almost daily. The doctor told him that there was not a way this could happen, there was no evidence this could happen. There had been no treatment, nothing had been done. He said with his DNA, if something could go wrong even just 1% then it would happen to him. The AE "problems breathing" did require an ER visit. The patient was hospitalized for the event problems breathing from 04Mar2021 to 05Mar2021. The patient underwent further lab tests and procedures, which included hearing test with unknown results on an unspecified date. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of problems breathing, allergic reaction, and rash on the left ankle. The patient recovered from the event "problems breathing" on 04Mar2021; he recovered from the events "allergic reaction and rash on the left ankle" on an unspecified date in 2021; he was not recovered from the events "residual neuropathy in feet was reported as worsened, hypersensitive on certain frequencies was reported as worsened, and his vision since the shots was compromised/vision in the lower section had shrunk even more/gotten worse," while the outcome of the other event was unknown.

The events did not require a visit to a physician office or emergency room (ER). The patient did not receive any prior vaccinations within four weeks of the bnt162b2; and there were no additional vaccines administered on the same date of the Pfizer Suspect. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included blood pressure: good on an unspecified date, height: shrunk from 6 foot getting older on an unspecified date, heart rate: good on an unspecified date, pulse rate: 56 to 60 on an unspecified date. The caller stated a few days ago he had an intense dizziness after he got the first dose of the vaccine. This was 72 hours after the shot. He had the shot around 12:01 last Friday (29Jan2021). Monday (01Feb2021), about the same time, he had a very very intense dizziness that came on suddenly (came on in about 30 seconds) and it was full blown and it lasted for pretty much 24 hours. It slightly lessened after 20 hours but it was a day before he could stand up. It was not gradual, he knew right then he was in trouble, he couldn't sit up or roll over. He stated he was in great health but if he was taking medication or had a heart condition he doesn't think he would be available for this conversation. It stressed him out and he didn't know he could go that far and come back. He stated it was comparable to cardiac arrest and was a life threatening experience. If other people may have this reaction (if intoxicated or on drugs) they may not survive it. It was very very severe and scary. He stated his reaction seems extreme to everybody he knows. It just about wiped out cognitive function. He stated around here it doesn't seem that people are having severe reactions. He knows a couple people getting the shot, one who drinks, one who had diabetes and he let them know about this. Additional Context: The patient stated he wanted to report his experience and ask a question. The patient stated he received the first dose of the Pfizer COVID 19 vaccine on 29Jan2021 at 12:01 in the left arm. The patient did not use drugs or alcohol and did not have any medication and had good health. The patient's heart rate and blood pressure were good. The patient had a slight headache. Then 72 hours later on Monday at about 11:30 he started to get dizzy, suddenly, and it was very intense. The patient took about 12 steps and recognized it and got to the bed. By the time he got there he knew he was in trouble, he had little anxiety and noticed a change in heart rhythm. The dizziness was very intense and intensified when he went to bed and continued. Tuesday morning it lightened a bit and then around 11:30 on Tuesday it withdrew; exactly 72 hours from the vaccination. The patient felt okay now, except he was kind of exhausted and had a hungover feeling, not totally clear but he was walking around. The patient felt if a person had been intoxicated or on medication or had a heart condition, he did not think they would survive this. The patient was physically challenged to get through it with shallow breathing, really panting, and not being able to get around. The patient had to focus on his breathing, panting to get through it. It was serious for him. Initially he noticed the change in his pulse rate and kept checking his pulse. His normal is usually 60 but in this case, it was 56 to 60. The anxiety was mild, he was concentrating to keep calm. The patient stated: "This is a world crisis, a year old and it is not ideal conditions but this might be a critical issue in terms of the negative effects being more severe than anticipated for certain groups of people and he wanted to discuss this concern with someone at Pfizer." The patient added he wanted to make sure that Pfizer knew that the intensity of the experience was a 100, it was very extreme. The patient added he felt like in his eye sockets and in his neck and everywhere that there was something in him, some unfamiliar sensation that has now gone away. When he bent over yesterday, he was mindful that that the dizziness had gone away. The patient added he still felt tired. The patient mentioned he did not eat for a while with that dizziness. The patient was scheduled for the next dose on 19Feb2021 but was a little unsure about getting it. Follow-up (05Feb2021): New information reported from a contactable consumer includes: suspect vaccine (lot number; anatomical location, vaccination facility, Time), concomitant medications, reaction data (added events: Headache, Anxiety, Shallow breathing, Pulse abnormal, Exhaustion, Abnormal breathing, Feeling abnormal, Activities of daily living impaired, Body height decreased), outcomes updated and clinical course.

About a week after the second injection, I began feeling very fatigued. I assumed this would go away in a week or so. It did not. It has gotten worse. My GP has suggested it is sleep apnea. I have had sleep apnea for quite some time and it has never made me feel this way. I am exhausted, all the time. I can barely get through a day. I can do almost no exercise, climb a couple of flights of stairs, walk a couple of blocks and I need to rest. Just existing wears me out.. Initially I thought it was a reaction to the vaccine but after a couple of weeks I began to think it was a heart issue. So, I had EKG and Echocardiograms done. They show normal. I am not just tired, I am brain fog tired. I am fatigued well past anything I have ever experienced. I don't know if this is a result of the Vaccine. That is what I am asking and is there treatment?

On March 8 we went and got the 2nd vaccine and he came home with a fever and confusion and I guess dementia just seeming crazy. He was eating dinner on March 9 sitting at the bar with my Mom and for whatever reason when she got back to him (with 5minutes) he was on the floor balled up in a ball, all his muscles were tight- it was hard for us to get him to stretch or even move, unable to move or control his bowels. I went and got him and put him in bed, in the middle of the night he woke up and was going crazy. My Mom called the ambulance and they took him to the hospital and he stayed for 3 days. They got him some Occupation therapy and they were able to snap him out a little bit. They helped him walk a little it was hard because he has only one arm. We ended up taking him to a nursing home for physical rehab for him to snap out of it but after 2 weeks in the home his brain and cognition and physical abilities deteriorated everyday. To the point we had to send him to a behavioral health hospital who tried to get him on medication to keep him from getting violent- he was there for 31 days and sent back to nursing home and lasted 3 weeks and then he passed away. It was just rapid exponential deteriorated from day to day and was unbelievable to watch. Every Dr. that saw him said that the vaccine was a contributor to his rapid decline.
