On 09-MAY-2021, Laboratory data included: Computerised tomogram (CAT) scan (not provided) Normal, EKG (not provided) Normal, Echocardiogram (not provided) normal, Fragment D dimer (not provided) Elevated, and Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (not provided) Not reported. MRI, D-dimer- was performed at Emergency room. D-dimer was up, CAT scan of lung over concern for embolism was clear. After diagnosis of clot the patient was prescribed apixaban (Eliquis) 5mg and then increased to 10 mg Twice a day (BID) for 1 month and then 5mg Twice a day BID, apixaban (Eliquis) was discontinued in SEP-2021.

This report was serious (Other Medically Important Condition). This case is a duplicate of 20220414402 and 20210441932.  Additional information was received from patient on 07-APR-2022.

This added information does not alter the causality of previous reported event.  20210437127-COVID-19 VACCINE AD26.COV2.S-- hypertensive crisis (blood pressure was elevated 220/111). The event(s) has a compatible/suggestive temporal relationship, is unlabeled, and has unknown scientific plausibility. There are other factors more likely to be associated with the event(s) than the drug. Specifically: MEDICAL HISTORY. Therefore, this event(s) is considered not related.   This is a report of a 51 year old female patient, unknown ethnicity, who was noted to have thrombosis and experienced angina pectoris and syncope 2 days after receiving the covid-19 vaccine ad26.cov.2.  Patient's height and weight were not reported. Medical, surgical and smoking history were not reported. Concomitant medications were also not reported. The patient has been having fainting spells and angina for the past more than 10 days.
