Symptoms: Eye laser surgery, Fatigue, Retinal tear, Vision blurred, Visual field defect
Clinical narrative: On 1/20/2022 about a month after getting my booster, I started having trouble seeing out of the upper quadrant of my right eye. It was extremely cloudy. The rest of my entire visual field seemed fuzzy, almost like looking at TV snow that comes on the screen. I wondered if it was just because I was tired and I let a week go by, before I called my doctor. They told me that it could just be floaters. Then the hospital clinic called me back and said that I could be having a retina tear or that it's detaching. They wanted me to come in immediately the next day. It was confirmed that I had tears in my right retina and I had laser treatment done in his office. It took a couple of weeks to heal.

Vaccine: COVID19
Symptoms: Arthralgia, Back pain, Musculoskeletal stiffness, Pain
Clinical narrative: Background: Patient was seen at the Emergency Department for a work related back injury on Oct. 7 2021 and was diagnosed with strain of upper thoracic spine (right side). Pt was then prescribed Norco (for pain) & Valium (for muscle spasms), one dose of each was administered while at the ED. Pt was subsequently discharged with home rx of Norco & Valium, but prior the adverse event noted in this VAERS report, pt has not taken additional doses of either.  Adverse Event: At approx. 1630 on Oct. 26 2021, Patient began to experience unexpectedly severe pain and muscle stiffness in shoulder nearest to injection site. Over the next ~1h, pain and muscle stiffness progressively radiated from left shoulder, across upper back, and to right shoulder. Once pain and muscle stiffness reached right shoulder, the pain got significantly more pronounced. Patient then took previously prescribed Valium which helped with the muscle stiffness. After another hour the pain and muscle stiffness had mostly subsided, but both remain (although less severe) for another aprox. 24 hours. Pt was seen in person by a qualified healthcare professional two days later (Oct. 28 2021).  Treatment: Valium (Rx)  Outcome: Resolved with Treatment. Pt continues to have occasional muscle stiffness and pain in shoulder. Presumed to be related to previously mentioned muscle strain.

Clinical narrative: felt terrific; she felt like her old self again after the shot, but nothing really else; a little high blood pressure; This is a spontaneous report received from a contactable reporter(s) (Consumer or other non HCP) from medical information team. The reporter is the patient.  A 77 year-old female patient received bnt162b2 (BNT162B2), administration date 05Feb2021 (Lot number: E12247) at the age of 77 years as dose 1, single and administered in arm right, administration date 25Feb2021 (Lot number: EN6202) as dose 2, single for covid-19 immunisation. The patient had no relevant medical history. There were no concomitant medications. The following information was reported: MALAISE (non-serious), outcome "unknown", described as "felt terrific"; FEELING ABNORMAL (non-serious), outcome "unknown", described as "she felt like her old self again after the shot, but nothing really else"; HYPERTENSION (non-serious), outcome "unknown", described as "a little high blood pressure". Relevant laboratory tests and procedures are available in the appropriate section.  Additional Information: Reporter stated she received the 2 doses of the Pfizer Covid vaccine last year. She said all went well, she did feel the shot going in but that was it. Felt like her old self after that. She stated it's alarming to hear that it is possible even though you are fully vaccinated with Pfizer Covid vaccine and still can get the Covid virus. She stated her life was complicated enough; she has not gotten the booster yet and now she was tired of hearing about getting a booster dose. She feels that she is not going to catch anything but stated she was old, so body takes its toll, she still drives and lives alone and feels terrific. The patient was 77 when she received her first vaccine. Then, she went in at 78 years old. In a couple of weeks, she would be 79 years old. Stated she was on the light side but she has always been that way, even in high school. She hasn't been measured in quite a while and she has heard you shrink with age. In general, she was on the short side, maybe 5'1.5''. She hasn't been weighed in several months at the doctors. Reporter made the comment she had a little high blood pressure. When probed to determine if the high blood pressure occurred prior to getting the shot or after, the caller explains it happened after. She didn't have high blood pressure until after the first shot.  The high blood pressure began maybe a couple of months afterwards. She doesn't know 100% but she feels that getting the COVID vaccine didn't have anything to do with the high blood pressure, it's her age. She also has wonderful doctors. No additional vaccines administered on same date of the Pfizer suspect. No other vaccinations within four weeks prior to the first administration date of the suspect vaccine(s), was applicable. She was overall very happy with Pfizer.  Follow-up attempts are completed. No further information is expected.
