Clinical narrative: I was not able to lift my left arm for 3 days unless I used my right hand to lift it.  These are the symptoms that have followed since this time.  I received the Pfizer Covid booster on December 28, 2021. The injection site was so sore that I could not lift my arm unless I used my other hand and arm to lift. This was the case for the next 3 days. On January 15th I started getting sick. Went to Dr., my family doctor at that time and he thought I had sinus infection, but I tested positive for Covid. I felt awful. I was put on antibiotics that this time and between this time and August 2022 I had so many sinus infections and bronchial issues and felt awful during this time. Truly little energy. I started experiencing shortness of breath at this time. On April 29, 2022, I was experiencing chest pain and thought I was having a heart attack. My husband took me to the ER of MC where I was admitted and after multiple tests it was determined that I had fluid around my heart. I was on medication for 180 days to get rid of this fluid. I had to do two 90-day treatments of Colchicine which caused diarrhea and vomiting during this time. I had to have numerous heart tests during this time because of the unknown. I had never had any issues with heart fluid until this time. If I need to have records pulled from Dr. at this time I can and with Heart Clinic. During this time, I began struggling to carry my grandkids who I had never had issues with before this point. I missed so many events with my grandkids because I did not have the strength to go.

On September 18, 2023, a Heart Cath checked the inside of the heart trying to figure out what is going on. This was done at MC.   We were getting ready to go on vacation and my ability to walk to places was hard. I missed so much because I was not able to walk up steps.  Went through airport in a wheelchair.

Was prescribed another round of medicine. It took about another 2 weeks to feel better.  On February 26, 2024, I saw Dr. for a follow-up, He has been my family doctor since FNP moved on to another location. I have little leg muscle strength. Getting up from a chair has become an issue. Have both muscle and nerve damage. Also, the things that I thought were bruises on hands and arms were vascular issues. I have started physical therapy, and I am seeing some improvement.  On March 24, 2024, I went on a girl?s trip and we came back on March 27, 2024. My legs were so swollen with red hot spots on them. FNP told me to lay on the floor with my legs up a wall. I did this on the couch trying to get swelling down. It has taken my legs until April 4, 2024, to return to normal. Also, the vascular spots on my arms were so much worse than wh. I left.  Traveling will be an issue if my body reacts like this.   On April 4th I had my regular dentist appointment and because of the dry mouth that Covid has caused I have issues with cavities underneath a crown and some decay between teeth that has not been an issue again. I am also now having to use prescription toothpaste.
