The patient reported that after her first Pfizer vaccine dose she experienced some brain fog, headache, her ears and head feel full, it felt like a migraine, felt sensitive to sound and light and couldn't watch TV and very stuffy in her sinuses. The patient's Medical History (including any illness at time of vaccination) was reported as none.

Additional vaccines administered on same date of the Pfizer suspect was reported as none. The patient did not receive any other vaccines within 4 weeks prior to the COVID vaccine. The patient received COVID vaccine so that she can work safely. The patient slept pretty much all day on and off after she received the vaccine and woke up really really dizzy and had a really bad headache. On 15Mar2021, when she got up at around 7:38 AM in the morning, she woke up feeling really dizzy and it made her worry. The patient thought her blood sugar might be low or this might be anxiety so she tried to eat something. The patient felt little bit better, after she did eat something, but it was still not a normal feeling for her. The patient reported that her ears and head feel full and it felt like a migraine after 1st and 2nd dose of COVID vaccine. The patient reported that she had a stiffness kind of headache probably from sleeping weird. The patient felt sensitive to sound and light and described this as a weird feeling and it was otherwise explained as a migraine. The patient clarified that with the first dose, this feeling started on the second day after the vaccine. The patient clarified she was also very stuffy in her sinuses and it could be related to that too, but she does not know. The patient had still fullness in her sinuses and her eye still hurts, but she does not have a cold. The patient received treatment with Acetaminophen extra strength 500 mg, 2 caplets twice about 6 or 7 hours after the vaccine and took another dose again at 11 or 12pm (the patient thought it was closer to 11). The patient explained that we hear about nausea, swelling, pain at the injection site and do not typically see dizziness listed as the typical side effect- thats why she called. The patient underwent all the bloodwork and all sorts of stuff of testing done before the vaccine and clarified that everything was fine. Adverse events did not require a visit to emergency room or Physician Office. Investigation assessment was not done. The patient was feeling dizzy on the day of report. The patient was calling to make sure that the dizziness was normal after the second dose. The patient reported that she could not find information that is credible that lists dizziness as a side effect from the COVID vaccine unless, time to seek medical attention.
