Clinical narrative: blood pressure; heart issue; I have a thyroid issue; shoulders were swollen and I had pain from the swelling; My neck and shoulders were swollen and I had pain from the swelling; I had a swelling in my neck and I still have it; allergic reaction; This is a spontaneous report from a Pfizer-sponsored program Pfizer.com - General Company Information. A contactable consumer reported a 54-years-old female patient received pneumococcal 13-valent conjugated vaccine (diphtheria crm197 protein) (PREVNAR 13), via an unspecified route of administration in 2018 (Batch/Lot Number: not provided), as dose 1, single for immunization. The patient medical history and concomitant medications were not reported. In 2018, three years ago, patient had the pneumococcal 13-valent conjugated vaccine and had an allergic reaction the next day, on an unspecified date in 2018. The patient's neck and shoulders were swollen and had pain from the swelling in 2018. At the time of reporting, patient was still dealing with this. Patient was asking if this is the normal for this type of vaccine. She is interested in getting the covid vaccine but a little scared to. She asked and wanted an advise if what ingredient could she have been allergic to and are the same ingredients in the Pfizer vaccine also. It was also reported that about 3 years ago she got a Prevnar 13 pneumonia booster and had problems with it right after the shot she had a swelling in happen next morning after she got a shot, she woke up next morning and her neck was swollen and that she had issues with it ever since and nobody seems to know what is going on, stated that the only thing that she can think of that maybe there was something in the vaccine that she was allergic to and wanted to make sure that whatever the ingredients were in Prevnar 13 were not in Pfizer-Biontech COVID-19 vaccine because she is trying to get a Covid vaccine she is just a little weary) and she is interested in getting Pfizer-Biontech COVID-19 vaccine but was a little weary about side effects and what ingredients were in that one vs Prevnar 13 and if it would be ok for her to take that vaccine. Patient stated that prior to getting Prevnar 13, 5 years before she had regular pneumonia shot and because after that she developed a sleep apnea and her pneumonologist recommended that she get that Prevnar 13 booster shot, she was first a little weary about it but then she went ahead and got it and the next morning she woke up and her neck all swollen and has been having problems with it ever since. Patient kept referring to Prevnar 13 booster, verified that she got just one dose of Prevnar 13 (stated that doctor called it a booster shot so she called it booster shot). She stated that she had some medical issues and she knows that some people had some bad side effects on it (verified that she was referring to Pfizer-Biontech COVID-19 vaccine). If there is anything that she can do to prevent a potential side effects of the vaccine (Patient was referred to HCP, Pfizer unable to provide treatment recommendations), and asked has there been people that had underlying medical issues that got a Pfizer-Biontech COVID-19 vaccine and has died from the vaccine itself. Patient stated that she had several health issues, stated she has a heart issue, a blood pressure, a thyroid issue, has a sleep apnea on an unspecified date. The outcome of the events was unknown.  No follow-up attempts are needed; information about batch/lot number cannot be obtained. No further information is expected.
