Clinical narrative: Throat swelling; Trouble swallowing; Coughing; Facial tingling; Facial numbness; Face got hot; Face was swelling; Rash on legs and back and arms; really her heart was racing after she got the vaccine; This is a spontaneous report from a Pfizer sponsored program via a contactable consumer (patient). A 34-year-old female patient received second dose of BNT162B2 (Lot Number: EN6203), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in right arm on 13Apr2021 at 14:30 at age of 34-year-old as single dose for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included ongoing Hashimoto's thyroiditis (autoimmune conditions, had the Hashimoto's since she was around 16, that is when she started getting symptoms), ongoing neurocardiogenic syncope (kind of an autoimmune, started when she was 16). The patient previously received first dose of BNT162B2 (Lot Number: EN6203), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in right arm on 23Mar2021 at 14:30 at age of 34-year-old as single dose for covid-19 immunisation, and face got hot and face was swelling on 23Mar2021. None other vaccines administered on same date with the Pfizer vaccine considered as suspect. None other Prior Vaccinations within 4 weeks. None family medical history relevant to AEs. Concomitant medications were not reported. On 13Apr2021 at 17: 00 or 17: 30, the patient experienced throat swelling, facial numbness, trouble swallowing, coughing, face got hot, face was swelling, facial tingling, rash on legs and back and arms and really her heart was racing after she got the vaccine. Caller came on the line. She had throat and facial swelling, facial numbness, and a rash on her legs and back and arms. Then, she didn't know if she has nerve damage or what, she still had tingling in her face where it was originally numb. Caller was just wondering if there was a program in place. She was told to go to the ER because she was having a reaction. The hospital had no way of billing it as a Covid-19 vaccine reaction. After the second dose her face got hot and she took a lot of medication and the facial swelling and hotness went away. Her cheeks were red and hot, she was not sure if it was swelling. Her face was hot and bright red, she doesn't know why. It kind of seemed puffy, but she was not sure if that was what it was. She had swelling about a week after the second dose her face was swollen and puffy, but she thought it's gone like the hotness was gone. She thought the tingling in her face was related to that. Her face was tingling and hot and swollen, she thought the tingling was a lasting effect. She didn't still have swelling in her face and it wasn't hot. It was in the same area as the tingling. With the second dose she had the hotness and swelling 30 minutes after the vaccine, and it was a kind of a puffy tingling numbness. The hotness and swelling went away a little bit later, about 45 minutes after she had the vaccine. She had trouble swallowing after the second dose. She didn't know if it was because her throat was swelling. She had autoimmune issues and thyroid problems. She didn't know if her thyroid was swelling. She didn't realize she had the rash until a few hours after the second dose of the vaccine. Her throat was swelling after the second dose. She took diphenhydramine hydrochloride (BENADRYL) immediately and that helped. She took it right when she started noticing her throat was swelling and it went down some at that point so she didn't feel like panicking. She went to the ER and they gave her steroids and antihistamines, and it was completely gone after that. She did not have an NDC, lot, or expiration date available for the Benadryl she took. She recovered completely. It went away that same day. She thought the facial numbness after the second dose was a little better. It still felt tingly, but it had gotten a little better. She was not really sure, the numbness and tingling were kind of together and she didn't know how to describe it. She didn't want to be dramatic, she thought that people should get the vaccine. Reactions were normal for her. She had trouble swallowing about 30 to 40 minutes after she had the second dose of the vaccine. She was driving and realized she was having trouble swallowing or tightness in her throat area. When she went to the hospital she was still having trouble swallowing and was coughing. She thought the coughing was just from the throat swelling. It got better. She only still had the tingling. They did monitor her heart rate, really her heart was racing after she got the vaccine and did slow down after she got medication. They monitored her heart rate and blood pressure on 13Apr2021, results not provided. She hasn't had any other bloodwork or anything. The patient went to the hospital close to home and went to the ER but was not admitted. They gave her medications and everything returned to normal. She guesses they wanted her to stay, but she was ready to go home. Once everything resolved she left. She was there for a couple hours in the ER. No arrived physician office.
