Symptoms: Pain in extremity, Paraesthesia
Clinical narrative: I received the Pfizer COVID vaccine on Wednesday, January 20th at 1:15 PM. After I got the vaccine, I went in to the observation tent for observation. I sat down and immediately felt a tingle sensation in my fingers on my left hand and my arm hurt at the injection site on my left arm. After I left the observation and returned home, the rest of the day/night, my left arm hurt where I received the shot, I had a headache, my neck hurt, and I felt a little nauseous. The next day, January 21st, I felt a slight tingle sensation in both my hands and feet on my left and right side. January 22nd, the slight tingle sensation in both hands and feet on my left and right side continued, and I had a very bad headache. The slight tingle sensation has continued along with some muscle soreness in my arms and legs. The tingle sensation is intermittent throughout the day in my fingers and toes. I have no numbness and it is not painful. It is just a slight minor tingle sensation. I messaged my doctor on January 25th and was advised to monitor it and contact back if it doesn't go away. Present day January 30th, I still have slight tingling sensation in my fingers and toes on my left and right side, the muscle soreness has since subsided.

Symptoms: Chest pain, Claustrophobia, Nervousness
Clinical narrative: Patient was asked to be observed for 30 minutes due to a previous serious reaction to IVP dye.  About 20 minutes after she received her vaccine, she felt chest pain and claustrophobia.   She refused an epi pen.  She took 50mg of diphenhydramine.  She quickly said that she felt better, but we monitored her blood pressure, pulse, and pulse ox.   We also called a paramedic, they arrived shortly and evaluated her.  She refused to get treatment.   Her vitals were all normal, she was drowsy from the diphenhydramine.  The chest pain and feeling of claustrophobia were gone.  She worked at a school and the school nurse checked on her throughout the rest of the day, and she was feeling fine.  She was very nervous about the vaccine, and her reaction could have been anxiety related (although she felt fine after her vaccine).

The heat rush comes and goes and varies in intensity from a warm feeling to very hot and uncomfortable like there was a tube of hot lava inside my body causing quite a bit of pain.

Clinical narrative: Began with a slight headache that eventually got worse.  Started, when treated, at a 5 of 10.  Left facility with a 7 of 10 headache.  Then I had a weird taste in my mouth (metallic like).  My tongue started to tingle and was a bit numb.  Eventually after Doctor at facility took me in, I was given benedryl 50 mg and an antacid.  After a few minutes the right side of my mouth became itchy but the tingling stopped.  The itch was not unbearable but it was getting there.  I was already having a slight difficulty breathing but that was from the morning even with inhalers.  As an instrument player  a doctor said I have super lungs so my results would be skewed due to how much air I take in.  But any loss of air, although in the safe range for others, is like breathing through a straw for me.  My blood pressure was 139/90 at the time.  My normal blood pressure is 117/70.  I went home feeling cold and just not feeling well, relatable to flu symptoms.  This is the next day after taking benedryl every 6 hours at 50mg/dose.  My breathing is slightly labored.  I feel ok but my arm hurts, I have been moving it around a lot just to get it mobile.  My chest feels like there is a slight weight on it which is weird for me.  At the moment my pulse is 81bpm and my oxygen is at around 96.  My norm is around 70bpm and oxygen at 99.    No temperature is consistent at 97.3.   I feel a little weird today.  I am stiff all over as well.  Little aches here and there but that is a norm.  Doing my stretches and exercise is not a go today.  Can't breathe as normal.

But any loss of air, although in the safe range for others, is like breathing through a straw for me.  My blood pressure was 139/90 at the time.  My normal blood pressure is 117/70.  I went home feeling cold and just not feeling well, relatable to flu symptoms.  This is the next day after taking benedryl every 6 hours at 50mg/dose.  My breathing is slightly labored.  I feel ok but my arm hurts, I have been moving it around a lot just to get it mobile.  My chest feels like there is a slight weight on it which is weird for me.  At the moment my pulse is 81bpm and my oxygen is at around 96.  My norm is around 70bpm and oxygen at 99.    No temperature is consistent at 97.3.   I feel a little weird today.  I am stiff all over as well.  Little aches here and there but that is a norm.  Doing my stretches and exercise is not a go today.  Can't breathe as normal.

Clinical narrative: Woke up at 3 am with the worst chills I have ever experienced.  I can usually do deep breathing or relaxing to calm my chills, but these would not let up.  It felt like my body was being squeezed.  I was finally able to get up and used a walker to get to the kitchen and took 1000 mg acetaminophen.  Without the walker, which I don't usually use, I was afraid I would not be able to stand up or would stumble due to my shaking.  By 4 am, the shaking had stopped enough for me to lay back down and I was able to get to sleep.  I had a fever of 99.8 when I woke up.  Later that morning it was 100.8.  By that night it had gone down to 98.7 and the next morning it was my normal 97.6 and I feel great.

Clinical narrative: Several hours after the injection I got a severe headache.  I almost never get headaches.  Day 2 was OK during the day, but sometime during the night I woke up vertigo and nausea which continued to get worse on day 3.  I also had water in my head.  I kept waiting for it to drain through my eyes. ears or nose, but instead I got wet (like stepping out of a shower) then only the vertigo nausea remained.  When I couldn't even sit up, we called the medics.  They checked for heart attack and stroke and ruled that out.  All vital signs including an MRI at the hospital cleared me as normal, but I felt like I was burning up inside.  I continued to have vertigo daily throughout the rest of July and August.  By September and through December, the vertigo was only occasional.  As of this writing I have not had any vertigo for about 4 weeks, but do occasionally still get lightheaded.  I am electing not to have the COVID shot because of this.
