Vaccine: COVID19
Symptoms: Nausea, Pain in extremity, Pruritus
Clinical narrative: About 12 hours after my shot I started getting pain under my left arm but I thought it was connected to my pain from my injection site so I ignored it. It got worse overnight. By the next morning I could barely move my arm because my axillary lymph nodes were so swollen (and still are at this moment) that I had pain all the way to my fingers. I haven?t been able to do much functioning and when I force myself it?s extremely painful. It?s still very swollen and now it?s very itchy but my pain in my hands is gone. I saw online it could take several weeks to go away so I haven?t contacted my doctor. I took naproxen a few times and it hasn?t helped at all for the pain or swelling. If it?s still very bad next week I?ll contact my doctor then. I know I take a lot of meds and have a lot of health problems but I?ve been ill my whole life and I 100% guarantee you it?s from the covid shot and not due to my health or some pill I take. And I wouldn?t take my time filling out this form neither. 2 of my kids got the same shot the same times I did and they are doing okay.  I am very nauseated too but I don?t know if it?s from the severe constant pain or the shot or both but that is manageable.

Clinical narrative: I started having intermittent numbness, tingling, pain and weakness in my left arm down to my hand about a week after my second Pfizer Covid vaccination. Over several months it progressively was getting worse. I am a nurse in a hospital and after speaking with several colleagues (other nurses and doctors) about what was going on, I went to my PCP. After seeing my PCP, I was referred to a Hand to Shoulder Center. The doctor declared it as cubital tunnel syndrome in which I had an Ulnar Nerve Release Surgery on June 8th. Approximately a week and a half to two weeks after the surgery I started noticing intermittent numbness and tingling to the left side of my lips and left side of my face. Until I started having issues with my face, I didn't even consider the possible correlation with my problems and the COVID vaccines. It it just ironic that I received both vaccines in my left arm and I am having issues with my left arm and the left side of my face. I am still having numbness, tingling and some weakness to my left arm as well as the intermittent numbness and tingling to the left side of my face. Now I was advised by the surgeon that it could take up to a couple of months for my issues with my arm to resolve but when I contacted my PCP regarding an update on my arm as well as to inform her about the concerns with my face, and questioning the possible correlation with the COVID vaccines, she advised me to file a report through VAERS.

Symptoms: Extra dose administered, Interchange of vaccine products, No adverse event
Clinical narrative: Patient had received Pfizer series (2 shots) at another location; date unknown to us.  Patient claimed that her antibody test showed negative after her second shot so her doctor recommended her to redo the series. She made appointment at our pharmacy for Moderna shot 7/1/21 first dose.  On her consent form, she checked NO to question "Have you received a vaccine for COVID in the past".  We gave her the shot then billed insurance afterwards.  Insurance came back with rejection that patient had Pfizer series.  We contacted patient and she confirmed she already had Pfizer series.  The case was reported to pharmacy manager and regional supervisor.  We were advised to fill out this report for CDC future use.  Patient had NO adverse effects but this form had to be filled out so some of the questions would not be relevant regardless of the answers.

Symptoms: Fatigue, Loss of personal independence in daily activities, Menstruation delayed, Pain in extremity, Pyrexia
Clinical narrative: My biggest complaint is that I am now  66 days out from the first shot and no period. I did get sick from both the first and second shot (sore arm, fevers, fatigue, unable to function - especially on the second shot). But I should have had a period between the 1st and the 2nd - and there was nothing. I finally had some spotting last week. But still literally nothing. This is really frustrating and frankly scary.
