A 48-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number and expiration date not provided), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left first dose on 16Mar2021 09:30 at single dose for COVID-19 immunization. The patient's medical history included Epilepsy. The patient was not pregnant at time of vaccination. The patient's concomitant medications included oral levetiracetam (KEPPRA) for epilepsy at 4000 mg, daily, valproate semisodium (DEPAKOTE) for epilepsy at 500 mg, daily, and valproate semisodium (DIVALPROEX) for epilepsy at 500 mg. The patient stated that she got the vaccine on 16Mar2021. The patient had a a seizure that lasted about 10-15 minutes the next day on 17Mar2021 at maybe 11pm-1130pm. The patient was out with someone and he took her back to her house and she wasn't feeling like, not normal, and he told her she needed to go to the hospital and it took her awhile as she doesn't realize she had a seizure and it sometimes takes a while to convince her she did. States sometimes with seizures you don't remember. The patient was advised to go to the ER to get checked out and he was really worried. States immediately after the seizure she threw up and was not feeling well at all. States she was not admitted to the hospital. States they did a Ct scan of her head and she had bit her tongue a little bit, which is normal with seizures. States she is improved but she still has the medical condition of epilepsy. The patient stated that after she drove home she noticed when she stretched her arm out she was still having tremors and these for lasted about an hour and then she went to sleep. Caller clarifies that after the hospital she went home and went to sleep. States she had been given Ativan at the hospital to ward off additional seizures and that makes you very tired. The patient also had headaches and still gets them, states they are getting less and less frequent. States the headaches started that same evening, that it was weird she had gone out to dinner and was talking with her friend and she thought I have a headache and he is normally fun and she was not feeling so good. Relays that she thought maybe it was a problem with the food she ate, but states they ordered the same meal and she in confident it is not the food as he did not have any troubles. The patient hasn't had a seizure since age 14 and had she known the vaccine would likely cause one she would not have taken it. States she will not take the 2nd one. She said that this was ridiculous.  States her arm was sore like from the flu shot or a little worse, but not a big deal.  . States her main concern is the seizure. States she is a CPA and it is her busy season for tax returns and saying her arm being sore is eh maybe she wasn't waving it around as much as normal, she is like a praying mantis at her computer typing away. States the soreness started by the end of the work day or that afternoon. States it was no big deal and the next day she did work around the house and was using that arm more and then working from home that day thank God and it was St. Patrick's day and she went out to dinner. States she only noticed the arm soreness/sore arm 16Mar2021 and by the morning of 17Mar2021 she didn't notice it anymore.  States she wasn't told she was at risk for a seizure and that would have been helpful as if she had known there was a chance of a seizure she would, like any medication, if there is a chance of seizures she doesn't take it.  The outcome of the event Seizure was not recovered.  The outcome of the event headache was recovering. The outcome of the event Pain in extremity was recovered on 16Mar2021. The outcome of the remaining events was unknown.   Information about the lot/batch number has been requested.
