Medical history included ongoing Acid reflux, ongoing irritable bowel syndrome, ongoing High cholesterol, ongoing asthma, indigestion, ongoing osteoarthritis, and allergy. She has had this for a long time. Last year she felt like she had a irritable heart beat but found out it was due to too much acid, indigestion. It is gone now. Concomitant medications included paracetamol (TYLENOL) taken for osteoarthritis. The patient previously took epinephrine and experienced drug hypersensitivity, aspirin [acetylsalicylic acid;ascorbic acid] and experienced drug hypersensitivity, salicylic acid and experienced drug hypersensitivity, amoxicillin and experienced drug intolerance. She stated she got a rash. The rash is located around her wrist, upper hand, under arm, pelvic area. She confirmed the rash is gone now. On the day she got the vaccine, that afternoon, when she was laying down, she noticed and felt a pressure on her heart. It is like a pressure she has never had before. It is like a heaviness that was strange to her. She drank water and stuff. Before the vaccine she did not have this feeling. She is wondering if this pressure on her heart, the heaviness is part of a reaction to the vaccine. She also wants to know how to avoid this from occuring. She has heard the second shot is more effective than the first shot and she does not want a heart attack. She wants to be protected with the second shot. That is why she is calling. She had this heaviness in heart. This is not something listed on what she has as a side effect of the vaccine. She got the COVID Vaccine on 06Feb2021. Her appointment was for 8:45AM, she got there earlier and they were done by 8:53 AM. The rash started possibly the second day, exact date not specified when probed for start date. The rash was totally gone away. It went away possibly that same day it was noticed or possibly the next day. Caller added, she was allergic to so many things. Stated certain things she is allergic to she would get a rash, get itchy, and then it is gone. The same afternoon she got the COVID 19 Vaccine she felt the pressure in chest, on her heart. She knows it was not a natural thing. She stated she did not look at the time when this happened, but it was like 3PM, 4PM, or 5PM. She also wants to know how to avoid this from occurring and asked if this vaccine has Epinephrine located in it. No other additional vaccines were administered on same date of the Pfizer suspect.
