Clinical narrative: Vaccine Name: PFIZER Comirnaty 30/.3ml 2023-24 COVID 12YR+ VL RX#:    Adverse Reactions: Although I have always experienced a headache, fatigue, and severe body aches the day after previous Covid vaccines, this was very different. I have PTSD from this reaction and should absolutely have been hospitalized. I could not eat, sleep, and barely kept down water for three days; however the reaction lasted for six days.  I received the vaccine at noon on a Friday. I took a generic sleep aid to try to help me sleep through any affects that night, but I still woke up around 1am. I took a Rizatriptan to help my headache not turn into a full blown migraine. When I woke up around 5am to fix breakfast, I got the sweats, tunnel vision, and I barely made it to my bed before I passed out for three hours. When I woke up my headache was worse, so I took another Rizatriptan and put an ice pack on my head before I laid down again. I slept Saturday night but had the body aches. On Sunday, the second day after the vaccine I had the sweats but thought I was turning the corner like with previous vaccines. Sunday night was the last night I slept until Thursday. When I woke up on Monday, something was very wrong. I had the migraine of all migraines. It was like something was scraping my skull or crushing it. I ate some yogurt and tried to lay down. I would interchange ice packs on different parts of my head the rest of the week. I could not sleep because of the skull crushing headache either. Around noon on Monday I vomited up the yogurt and would not stop vomiting, even water until Wednesday night, almost three full days. The pain in my head was so bad that I could not sleep, not even at night. I tried to sip water and Pedialite but vomited everything up all of Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. Wednesday night I took Dramamine and fell asleep for about five hours. However, as I was falling asleep I felt like my breath was going out of me and was fighting falling asleep because it felt like I was dying. I woke up about 5hrs later around midnight and felt different, but not ok. I took the opportunity to take two Tylenol and go back to sleep. When I work up again around 4am Thursday, I was still sweaty, exhausted, and had the headache. My stomach was not okay, but I wasn't vomiting. I was able to keep three crackers and two teaspoons of yogurt down with water (which stayed down). I took two more Tylenol and tried to sleep again. By mid-day Thursday, day six since the vaccine, I was able to call on my Telehealth (but had to split it to two calls because of my headache). Telehealth prescribed Promethazine for the nausea/vomiting and thought I was allergic to this particular vaccine. A friend picked up the medication and left it at my door. I was able to to continue a few saltines and Gatorade with Tylenol every 4hrs while on the Promethazine the rest of the day Thursday and Friday. My headache wasn't totally gone until Sunday, eight days after the vaccine. I wasn't eating normally until almost ten days after the vaccine. I will admit now that I absolutely should have been taken to the emergency room and needed IV fluids. It just got so bad so fast and I did not have family here to help.
