Vaccine: COVID19
Symptoms: Headache, Injection site pain, Muscle spasms, Oropharyngeal discomfort, Throat tightness
Clinical narrative: 57y/o female presents with mild throat tightness ~15min after receiving Pfizer vaccine into the left arm. She states that it feels as though something small got stuck in her throat and is causing mild discomfort. She reports associated injection site pain, body cramps, and headache. She denies itching, difficulty breathing, shortness of breath, chest pain, palpitations, blurry vision, presyncope, difficulty swallowing water, or lip/tongue swelling. She reports no change in symptoms after 40min. post-injection.   Physical Exam:  Heart Rate 66bpm, Blood Pressure 115/74, Repeat Blood Pressure at 40min post-injection 120/80 Cardiac: regular rate and rhythm Lungs: unlabored breathing, clear to auscultation bilaterally  Skin: no injection site erythema or swelling. No rash.  No lip/tongue swelling or narrowing of oropharynx.   Plan:  Patient reports that her symptoms have improved at 1hr post-injection and would like to leave. I advised her that she should wait until all of her symptoms have resolved as throat tightness is a concerning adverse reaction. I provided her with options including contacting EMS right now to take her for observation at the hospital, however, the patient declined and said she would not go in the ambulance.  She insisted that she wanted to go home and that her husband was driving and would take her to the emergency room if her symptoms worsen. Patient was well-appearing when she left the vaccination site.

Vaccine: COVID19
Symptoms: Asthenia, Chills, Fatigue, Hypersomnia, Influenza like illness
Clinical narrative: My arm became very sore about 20 minutes after the vaccination, and continued to become more sore and painful. I woke at about 3 am the morning after the vaccination with flu symptoms, very similar to a those in a 3-week illness from last March, 2020. Sinus pain and pressure, low fever, muscle aches, weakness. I was the same later that day, the and continued to have a low fever. By the next day those symptoms were gone, but I felt weak and very fatigued, chilled, and slept much of the day. The symptoms of extreme fatigue, feeling chilled, continued until late on Friday evening, the 19th. I am normally a very active person, but the fatigue was frightening, and not something I normally suffer from. From about 2pm on each day after being vaccinated, my energy plummeted, and the extreme fatigue set in and I slept all afternoon each day and then all night, each day feeling okay in the mornings, then boom, extreme fatigue beginning around 2 pm. I have only experience this kind of fatigue once when I had the flu many years ago, and also last March when my doc thought I had Covid, sent me to the emergency room to be tested, but at that time, they were only testing people who had just returned from China. I want to stress, I am rarely ill, I am very active, and to date am on no medications except vitamins. But last March I was very ill for three weeks then about three more weeks were needed for recovery.  My symptoms from this second vaccination have subsided, but with a small amount of fatigue remaining in the afternoons. So, I wonder, from the studies coming out, that I may have indeed had Covid last March, and my immune reaction to the second vaccine was extremely strong. And, possibly I only needed the first vaccination. I filed a Vaers report on my symptoms after the first vaccination, that were also strong, including Covid arm, but subsided about 5 days after that vaccination, a month earlier.

Clinical narrative: Patient reported that she experienced blurry vision one day after receiving the Janssen COVID-19 vaccine, around 2:00 pm on 3/17/2021. She expressed concern that this might be related to the COVID-19 vaccine. She said it feels like there's something in her eye that's irritating it. I asked if she has seasonal allergies, and she said yes. She does not take anything for allergies. I advised her to try Visine eye drops. After consulting with Dr, I also advised her to take an over the counter antihistamine like Zyrtec, Allegra, or Claritin. Patient is diabetic, so we asked her to check her blood glucose as well. Patient reports that the Visine helped. Her blood sugar was 189. She reported chills and a mild fever. She took Tylenol and it brought her temperature down to of 99.6 F. I advised her to call me if any of her symptoms get worse or do not improve.

Symptoms: Dizziness, Impaired work ability, Laboratory test normal, Nasopharyngitis, Vertigo
Clinical narrative: I got the usual cold-like symptoms the next day. I took a nap and woke up and felt pretty much fine after that. After the 1st, I started getting waves of dizziness. I would lay on ground and I couldn't get up. After a couple of days, I could do stuff but would get random waves of dizziness and would have to sit down until it went away. My doctor told me to take Allegra and I just kind of lived with it. It didn't help with symptoms. It started affecting my work because I'm a CNA and I couldn't be having dizzy spells at work. I went to ER - on January 10th. They sent me to Hasboro because they were to busy at ER. The nurse said I had Vertigo - and they discharged me with Meclizine while I was in ER and it didn't help. I called me doctor a couple of days after. She told me to combine the Allegro with the Meclizine and that didn't help with either. I called my doctor back and she said that there is nothing else I can do because my bloodwork came back normal.  I'm not currently taking anything and I'm still getting random dizzy spells. I have returned to work and so I just have to take breaks at work when it happens.  I got the second vaccine on the 19th of January.

Vaccine: COVID19
Symptoms: Arthritis, Condition aggravated
Clinical narrative: I am a well-nourished (doctor-speak for chunky), 65-year old female in fairly good health.  My main issue is severe rheumatoid arthritis, for which I take Humira (abdulimumab) by injection every two weeks.  I?ve been taking this medication for years and it has managed my condition well.  March 5 I received my (Janssen) vaccine and suffered no side effects, not even swelling or discomfort at the injection site.  Piece of cake!  March 11 I took my regular injection of Humira.  Pain started in my ankles, wrists, elbows and knees, increasing through the evening.  I developed a sore throat, but there were no other signs of allergic reaction.  Pain increased, waking me through the night.  March 12 Discomfort has increased severely.  Can?t put weight on my right leg and the slightest movement of any part of my body causes searing pain, especially in right leg from mid-thigh to below the knee.  I can?t lift the leg on its own; have to move it using my hands.  Pain is a constant 10, and I?m crying like a baby.  My left foot shows gout-like symptoms with heat, swelling and pain at the base of the toes.  The entire foot is very tender to the touch.  Taking Norco every six hours and using a cane.  I?m not a wimp.  I spent 10 years in the military, have had two total knee replacements, a reconstructed ankle and fought breast cancer twice.    March 13 Pain has diminished, but is still localized in the ankles, knees, wrists and elbows.  Taking ibuprofen instead of Norco, drinking a lot of liquids and icing swollen foot.  The most intense discomfort evolved during the 24 hours following the Humira injection.  I?m not a clinician, but it seems that the Humira didn?t react well to the introduction of the vaccine.  It?s as if it was saying ?Sorry, this spot is already taken,? and decided to duke it out.  I?m a bit concerned about the next dose of Humira, but the vaccine has supposedly done its work within two weeks.

Symptoms: Arthralgia, Erythema, Injection site pain, Injection site pruritus, Injection site swelling
Clinical narrative: I definitely had a soreness at the injection site, more than I have had with any other shot. It definitely subsided after a couple of days. Also had joint pain in my hands, elbows, and knees, and particularly in my left knee where I have arthritis, also decreased in intensity within a few days of the shot.   About a week after the shot, my arm began to itch at the injection site, and swelling and a half-dollar sized red patch appeared, and the skin was hot to the touch. Today (2 days later), the red patch is roughly the size of a small envelope. The skin is still warm or hot to the touch and the swelling may have subsided slightly. I am not taking any antihistamines or using any topicals- just working on not scratching the area. I have read some info on the internet referring to this as "COVID Arm". It is manageable, and I am NOT deterred from getting my second shot in April.

It feels like the swelling persisted after a week and the injection site's skin temperature is also higher than my right arm.  I was using V-safe to report and track my symptoms.
