Vaccine: COVID19
Symptoms: Anticoagulant therapy, Atrial fibrillation, Blood pressure increased, Cardiac monitoring, Cardioversion
Clinical narrative: Woke in the early night  the day after vaccine with a very rapid, irregular, pounding heart beat. I have a history of benign palpitations, but this felt more acute. I went to ER and was diagnosed with Atrial Fibrillation with elevated troponins. Converted to regular rhythm after 3 doses of diltiazem IV.  Was given Eliquis orally. I am now on diltiazem and Eliquis after being on no meds for 70 years. I feel that this is related to the mRNA vaccine. I think Novavax would have been a better choice for me as an older adult. :-( I hope these symptoms resolve and I can wean off medications. ER Visit last night for panic due to this overwhelming new diagnosis. In ER 10/21 I had an elevated BP but no a fib, and a normal sinus rhythm. Happy to give more info anytime. Thank you!

Clinical narrative: After I administered Comirnaty covid vaccine, I administered Flucelvax.  His arm bled a little so I held a cotton ball against the arm.  Once it stopped bleeding I reached for the bandaid when he got off the chair and fell face forward bumping his head against the sink.  He got up immediately and seemed unware of what just occurred.  I called out for his mother who was in the waiting room and explained what happened.  He sat back down on the chair and I inspected his tongue and lip because I noticed he had bitten his lip.  His tongue was unaffected but his lip was lacerated.  I noticed his head was slightly red where he bumped it but he stated no pain.  When asked if he had a headache he replied no.  He said apart from pain on his lip, he felt completely fine and ready to go.  I asked him if he needed to rest before leaving but he said not needed.  I still recommended that he be seen by a doctor either at urgent care or hospital.  I called both him and his mother but had to leave a message.  I asked for a return call to collect their PCP information so we can notify them of what occurred.  As of this reporting, I have not heard back from them.

I had several appointments with my dermatologist. I was treated first with Triamcinolone Acetonide cream and Allegra with no improvement. Then I was prescribed Betamethasone Dipropionate Ointment and Montelukast and Cimetidine with no improvement. I then was sent to a specialist and went through three rounds of progressive Prednisone with no improvement. I was denied Xolair by my insurance and started Methotrexate. at around five months the rash disappeared and within six months the itching and burning stopped.

Clinical narrative: The medical assistant that prepared and administered the COVID vaccine diluted the vaccine in the vial and then drew up the entire vial which is a three dose vial. She administered all three doses from the vial at once. It is estimated that patient received 9-10 mcg of vaccine rather than the 3 mcg dose indicated for his age. Additionally, the vaccine was administered on the far lateral thigh rather than the correct location. The next day, he developed a fever of 100.5 prior to receiving ibuprofen/Tylenol for the next few days. He also experienced significant body aches, fatigue, and irritability. He developed a significant red and hot injection site reaction that progressed from 24-48 hours after the injection before nearly completely resolving 72 hours after the vaccine was administered.  I do have pictures of the rash and the progression if needed. About 72 hours after the injection, he had mostly returned to normal.
