A 50-year-old male patient received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE; lot number: 3030BA), via an unspecified route of administration on 18Sep2021 around 16:00 to 17:00 (at the age of 50-years-old) at dose 1, single in the left arm for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included ongoing hypothyroidism, and dental trouble from an unspecified date to an unspecified date (took supplements for this and this was fixed). Concomitant medication included ongoing levothyroxine for hypothyroidism. It was reported that the patient stated that the vaccine did not work out well for him. On Sep2021, the patient was diagnosed of telangiectasia. On an unspecified date in 2021, the patient had anxiety disorder. These happened after the administration of the vaccine. The patient also stated that on 2021, he had purple markings on the arm where he got the injection, noting that he noticed these few days after the injection. The patient stated that 10 days later, on an unspecified date in 2021, there were still markings and had multiple markings. The patient called these markings as spider veins. The patient had green veins visible on the left side of his chest saying the veins on the left side of the chest are more visible on an unspecified date in 2021. There was nothing on the right side. The patient was concerned about what it was doing to his veins and arteries. The patient stated that he got one shot and does not want to get another one. On an unspecified date in 2021, the patient stated that he jumped off the cliff like every crazy person. Stated that the vaccine did not work out well for him. It was reported that the patient has gone to the doctor several times. The patient was scheduled for ultrasound and blood work. No testing has been performed which was related to the events yet. The patient asked if the events he experienced are relative to the COVID-19 Pfizer injection and if these events has been reported. The patient stated that his diagnosis was telangiectasia, which was a disease of the capillaries. The patient was given tranquilizers for anxiety disorder. The patient had multiple purple marks that were permanent now and looked like spider veins. They were not only in one spot, but in multiple spots on his left arm where the COVID-19 Pfizer injection was injected. The patient did not notice this and did not looked his arm immediately after getting the COVID-19 Pfizer injection. The patient noticed it days later after getting out of the shower where he had a mirror, so he saw. At that time, the patient assumed that the purple marks were just injection site bruise and was not worried about it. The patient had multiple purple marks. The patient went to the doctor's office on an unspecified date in 2021 for an exam (unknown result) and the patient told the doctor that it did not looked good. The doctor agreed that it did not looked good. The doctor looked it up online and told the patient that the purple marks were spider veins and not bruises and diagnosed them as telangiectasia, but the doctor could not find any other relevant information and whatsoever. The doctor said that if the telangiectasia worsened, the patient should not get any additional injection of Pfizer COVID-19 injection, and that the patient should come back to see the doctor. On the same evening, same date when the patient saw a doctor, when the patient got out of the shower late at night, he looked in the mirror and saw green veins visible across the left side of his chest and non on the right side. There were visible veins going across the left side of the patient's chest in addition to the markings on his chest, and none of it has gone away. The patient gave it a little more time. The patient had other medical and legal problems going on, so he was busy for a week. After that, he looked again and stated that it still has not improved. It looks worse when he gets out of a hot shower because his veins were a little bit more illuminated than just normally, you can see it a lot clearer; so it's not ever going to look as bad in the doctor's office as it does when he gets out of the shower. He does have pictures, and his doctor took a picture that first day the patient saw him for exam. The patient has pictures of himself otherwise. He went in again to that doctor's office on 12Oct2021, but his doctor was not there, so he saw a different provider whose name he does not know. That provider signed him up and gave him referrals to get ultrasound and a blood test to see what's going on with arteries and veins. The patient was not happy. He thought that there would be a problem and did not want to get the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, and now was thinking that he was right. The people around him makes him feel that if he will not get the vaccine, he will not get a medical treatment in a hospital if he was infected with COVID-19 and was unvaccinated. The patient went against his intuition and said that it turned out that his intuition was right. Now, he had a problem that cannot be fixed. The patient was furious. He heard all kinds of side effects, but never heard of the events he experienced. The patient stated that it looks bad. The patient was concerned of the blowing out capillaries and has spread out across his chest. The patient was very worried and concerned of this. The patient has no time to undergo ultrasound and blood test. On an unspecified date in 2021, the patient experiences anxiety attacks every time he takes a hot shower. Further stated that when you take a hot shower you want to relax and go to bed; but then he's looking at this and his mind was going, and he has an anxiety attack. The patient found out that there were 2 pills coming out from a company, so he doesn't need to receive COVID-19 vaccine. The patient was really upset because if he did not receive the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, he would not have had this problem. The patient knows that people died from COVID-19 and knows that COVID-19 is a serious problem, but now he was looking at doctors who were looking at him and doesn't know anything. The patient even asked the person who gave him the COVID-19 Pfizer Injection who also had no idea; he had a million questions that has no answers. The patient's sister and father also got the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine but did not have any problem. The events resulted in physician office visit. No emergency room visit occurred and no hospitalization. Outcome of the event feeling abnormal was unknown, and for other events was not recovered.
