The patient's medical history included ongoing eczema and ongoing asthma from an unknown date. The patient's family history included possibly, high cholesterol on his dad's side.

He wanted to know if there was any information available on these medications and the Pfizer BioNTech COVID 19 vaccine. He wants to figure out if it was okay or was there any data points on side effects for people who had all these shots. He takes 3 extra shots a month. No additional vaccines were administered on same date of the Pfizer suspect. The facility where the most recent COVID-19 vaccine was administered was Pharmacy. The vaccine was not administered at Facility. The patient did not receive any other vaccines within 4 weeks prior to the COVID vaccine.

On 26Jul2021, the patient experienced twisting torso was painful and he had to get checked out and had pressure on his chest.

On the 26Jul2021, it was severe enough where getting up from bed and twisting torso was painful and he had to get checked out. It was severe enough that it was hard to twist and get out of bed so he went to the emergency room on the 26Jul2021 and had labs done. At the ER, they checked his CBC (Complete blood count): everything within range, troponin 1: within range, basic metabolic panel: all within range and did a D-Dimer test: within range on 26Jul2021. All results were within normal range. He stated that the ER just tried to get him out quickly and they said that the vaccine may have caused his symptoms but they were unsure. After taking tylenol, that day the symptoms were more mild and less noticeable but still had pressure on his chest. The chest pain was more mild now and less noticeable than the past two days. On the 29Jul2021, with the help of Tylenol, it was more manageable. He could still feel a certain degree of pressure on his chest. He had severe chest pain for 14 days after the vaccine. The patient asked if these side effects were normal. The patient wanted to know if he should get the second dose. He received the response stating that he should not get the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine if he had a severe allergic reaction after a previous dose of the vaccine or if he had a severe allergic reaction to any ingredient of the vaccine. The decision to receive the second dose for any other reason cannot be made by Pfizer.
