When probed to determine what the booster shot was for, she responds that she was 78 and she already had her first 2 shots back in Feb, so she went to her local (Withheld) drug store and both her and her husband got their booster shots. She is calling because she figured Pfizer needed to know the side effects people get. She figured that's how Pfizer gets their data. She states it's not a real serious situation, she had no effect on the first and second one, but the booster dose kind of affected her. She stated with the booster shot, she had the usual pain at the site of injection. She also was very tired. She states she was sitting on the sofa watching tv and fell asleep a couple of times. She was real lethargic. She aches. She felt like she was hit by a bus, she states her legs were aching, her arms were aching. Then, she wasn't very hungry. She was given some paperwork and she read that and she was okay. She confirmed her booster shot was last Thursday, 30Sep2021. She stated yesterday morning, she happened to look in the mirror and noticed a red patch on her arm, maybe 3-4 inches below the injection site. She touched the spot and it was very hot. She thought there was an infection there or that she got bitten by a bug, but there was no indication of that. She was very concerned especially because it was way down her arm, no where near where the needle was injected. She put ice on it, and then thought maybe she wasn't supposed to put ice on it. She called her cousin, whose son is an RN, and her cousin informed her there was such a thing as COVID arm and showed her pictures and reports of people having these patches on their arm and it goes away. She clarifies her cousin sent her different pictures of arms with all these red spots from after taking the vaccine. The caller was told it wasn't serious and it was nothing to worry about and that it should go away. She confirms the red patch on her arm is fading today. The patch is still there, but it is fading. It's less than it was yesterday. The area is still hot, but it's smaller. She states 7 days prior to the getting her booster shot, clarified as 24Sep2021, she did have to get a CT scan at the hospital. She was injected in the same arm (left arm), clarified in the vein at the elbow, with the contrast they do for a CT scan. She wonders if it has anything to with her symptoms.
