Clinical narrative: This is a spontaneous report received from contactable reporter(s) (Consumer or other non HCP) from medical information team. The reporter is the patient. A 69 year-old female patient received bnt162b2 (BNT162B2), administered in arm right, administration date 01Aug2021 09:00 (Batch/Lot number: unknown) at the age of 69 years as dose 1, single for Covid-19 immunisation. Relevant medical history included: "Open heart surgery", start date: 2010, stop date: 2010, notes: Open heart surgery, Aortic valve replaced due to aortic stenosis; "Aortic stenosis" (unspecified if ongoing), notes: Found out 40 years later the terrible influenza had caused aortic stenosis; "terrible influenza" (unspecified if ongoing), notes: terrible influenza.

The following information was reported: PAIN IN EXTREMITY (non-serious) with onset 01Aug2021 13:00, outcome "recovered" (Aug2021), described as "sore arm/her right arm being a little sore"; FATIGUE (non-serious) with onset Aug2021, outcome "unknown", described as "fatigue"; FEELING OF BODY TEMPERATURE CHANGE (non-serious) with onset 01Aug2021 13:00, outcome "recovering", described as "feeling of getting warm on her face then it cools rapidly/ the feeling went from her face to down both arms and her fingertips"; FEELING ABNORMAL (non-serious) with onset 05Aug2021, outcome "recovering", described as "the feeling went from her face to down both arms and her fingertips."; CONDITION AGGRAVATED (non-serious) with onset 05Aug2021, outcome "recovering", described as "event worsened in severity"; MENOPAUSAL SYMPTOMS (non-serious) with onset Aug2021, outcome "unknown", described as "Caller stated it feels like what women with menopause would call a hot flash"; OROPHARYNGEAL PAIN (non-serious), DYSPHAGIA (non-serious) all with onset Aug2021, outcome "not recovered" and all described as "throat is a little sore and it is hard to swallow"; HEAD DISCOMFORT (non-serious) with onset Aug2021, outcome "not recovered", described as "sense of fullness from her throat up to her ear". Additional information: It was reported that patient had her first dose of Pfizer Covid Vaccine on 01Aug2021 at around 09:00. She initially reported as being 21 days ago; but then clarified date of administration as being 01Aug2021. She is due for her second dose of Pfizer Covid Vaccine on 01Sep2021. She wanted to call because for the first 4 hours after she was administered the Pfizer Covid Vaccine she experienced zero side effects. Then on 01Aug2021 around 13:00 she had onset of her right arm being a little sore; which she heard is normal-she recovered completely from that event by 2-3 days after onset. Also on 01Aug2021 around 13:00 she had onset of feeling a little warm and then cool within a matter of seconds; initially that was only occurring in her face at least once daily for the first 2-3 weeks; but about 05Aug2021 after she had a few sips of white wine the event worsened in severity and the feeling ran down both of her arms at the same time; after that she has not consumed any more alcohol as it seemed to have intensified the event that one time; and she has only experienced the event in her face since then; and the event frequency has improved, it is not as often since about 2-3 weeks after onset. In the last week, and this could be completely unrelated to Pfizer Covid Vaccine; but it has concerned her so she wanted to ask if anyone else has reported what she is having: left side of her throat a little sore and harder to swallow and sense of fullness clear up to her ear. She thought it would go away in day or two but it has remained persistent in the last week. She asked if other patient's have experienced or reported these events, if they are normal or not, if it is not recommended to get the second dose if those events have been experienced after the first dose. She also was sent an email by Pfizer that she could be part of a 2 year study. She wouldn't have minded, but was a little confused because they wanted to know if she was a healthcare professional, and the answer is no, or knows someone in the healthcare field which is a strange way to word things; but she has a couple friends who are social workers if that counts. She didn't know if there was information to clarify that email's details. No list of any other vaccinations within four weeks prior to the first administration date of the suspect vaccine. No follow-up attempts are possible; information about lot/batch number cannot be obtained. No further information is expected.
