Additional information: Consumer with a potential AE on COVID-19 vaccine who reported that he had received five Pfizer covid-19 vaccines. Two of them were the two initial ones and three COVID-19 boosters and the last one was on 20Oct2022. Seemed the last booster was the Bivalent. Is going to get a biopsy done at a hospital because his PSA levels have gone up. Past three times it was at least 4 and the second to last time it increased to 6 something and on 11Nov2022 it got up to 9.24. Because it was trending up, they want to do a biopsy to see if it was prostate cancer. Information confirmed as provided his PSA levels had gradually gone up before he got the fourth vaccine.
