The patient received first dose of vaccine and experienced a rash and itching on 02Feb2021. The patient was broke out, she had a rash since she had the shot, it was like there were ants all over her back, head, legs, under her breast and under her arms in between legs. The doctor gave her Hydroxyzine for the itch and she just wanted to know, she was leery of going to get the second dose, she wanted to know was the second dose going to make it worse. The patient was scheduled to go for the second one 22Feb2021. She said the first day she got it she was fine, there was nothing, she was waiting for something to happen then she started with the rash. She was taking her blood pressure medication and insulin but she noticed that on the inside of her, on the top of the head was itching, it was the next day, and then toward the evening under her arms were itching and then between her legs and ankles and it was her right arm that she got the shot in and it started blotching. She showed it to the nurse at the office and she told the nurse maybe she was getting Ebola. She had blotches on her arm, it was only the arm she got the shot in. She still had the blotches she still had quite a few. She can still see them but they were getting lighter. Under her breast was still bugging her. She confirmed the itching and rash began the next day, after the first vaccine dose. It had improved since her doctor gave the pills to stop the itching. She was able to sleep, before she couldn't sleep she had to get up and take showers but since he had given the medicine it was improved and she had used salve, it was Cortisone but her under the bra it still itched where it was pressuring. She was going to have a labs taken to see if there was anything different. She took insulin and heart medication since forever and she even stopped to see, she said it was probably a bad thing but she stopped taking her heart medication to see if it was interacting, she stopped taking her insulin and her heart rate went up, everything was still the same, now she went back and started taking the insulin and heart medication again. Outcome of the event maybe she is getting Ebola was unknown, of the other events was recovering.
