Vaccine: COVID19
Symptoms: Blood test, Computerised tomogram coronary artery abnormal, Dyspnoea, Fatigue, Loss of personal independence in daily activities
Clinical narrative: The day after receiving the shot i was very tired.  Slept part of the day.  I am a runner and was unable to run that day but could tell i was very winded even going up and down stairs.  The rest of the week was unable to run from being winded.  Then after a week was able to slowly get back to my normal routine.  I had a calcium score scheduled for 7:00 am on May 19th.  I was called into my doctors office to be given the results the next week because my calcium scan came back fine...but doing the scan they found a 3mm nodule on my lung.  I have never had any type of lung issues.  I do not know that this is related to the shot.  But because of how my lungs felt for a week after the shot, i feel this could be related.  I am not a smoker and never have been.  They say the majority of these type nodules are formed from inflamation or infection.  At the time they told me about the nodule they also did my yearly physical.  Since i know some are getting inflamation around the heart...i'm curious if there can also be inflamation around the lungs which would have given me the nodule.  At this point..the doctor plans to do a ct scan in one year to see if the nodule has grown.   I felt like i should report this since this may not be discovered by many others unless they just happen to go from some type of scan of the lungs.

Symptoms: Anxiety, Dizziness, Fatigue, Malaise
Clinical narrative: 24 hours after receiving the shot.  I had normal reaction, 3 days of fatigue and not feeling well.  After the 3 days started to feel much better.  Than 9 days after I began to feel dizziness and light headedness.  This reaction is still continuing today.  I have been seen by my PCP and he insists its anxiety.  I have also been seen by PT to help relieve dizziness symptoms with no changes.  In doing research I have found that this type of reaction can happen to regular flu vaccine.

Vaccine: COVID19
Symptoms: Arthralgia, Joint stiffness, Joint swelling, Pruritus
Clinical narrative: This was 2nd shot.  Very soon after first, developed deep internal itch that lasted most of duration between shots.  Knew to either attribute to allergies or the vaccine.  Claritin was not alleviating the way it normally would....  Within 15 minutes of 2nd dose, the now familiar itch intensified.   Other side effect experienced was felt first shot go directly to inflamed spot in problem knee.  No big deal and momentary with first dose.  With second dose, felt immediately go to same spot, but problem knee area swelled and stiffened for several days thereafter.  Both issues seem minor and did not report to doctor.  Reporting here for sake of vaccine side effect data collection.  If itch intensifies I will seek treatment.  Right now it is low grade and can be tuned out.

Clinical narrative: The night after the shot I developed COVID arm which burned and itched and swelled up. The next night a rash spread to my arms and trunk. The next night my right leg swelled up horribly and got a rash as well on my upper quad. My eyes burned for days after the shot and my eye doctor said my eye lids were inflamed and gave me steroid eye drops to help. The next night I woke up in the middle of the night itching my face. My whole face was covered in a rash that burned and was swollen. I had 4mg pills of methylpredisolone on hand at home and self treated with three pills (one each day for three days) and that helped with the swelling and Benedryl helped with the itching. I started having heavier periods at increments more than once a month (like once a week). I also have experienced significant weight gain - almost 10 pounds - in the month after the shot. I have weighed the same thing since I was in college and still wear the same clothes until after the shot. The periods have subsided but the weight is still here and I've done nothing else differently.
