Clinical narrative: After I got my shot, it felt like a shock in my body. It went down my arm and went down my body on the left side. She grabbed my arm after she took out the needle and it bruised my arm. She was shaking my arm after she administered the vaccine. She grabbed me kind of hard. I went and sat down for 10 minutes afterwards. I think I went to Costco after I left there. I was still feeling alright. Then I went home. I don't recall what time I went to sleep. I slept all day Saturday. I was very fatigued. I think I woke up at about 9PM that night. I was up for several hours before I went back to sleep. When I was sleeping on Saturday, I noticed that when I turned my head all the way into the pillow, I was feeling a little bit of a dizzy spell. At about 3AM Sunday morning, I felt nausea and dizziness. I got up to go to the bathroom and it was like my head had gone crazy. I couldn't see anything clearly. My head felt like it was just knocking from left to right. I felt like I was going to fall. I started throwing up. I threw up before I got to the toilet. It was like a mucus. It tasted very bitter. I sat down on the toilet but I was already throwing up. I was just throwing up all over. I am not sure how long I sat there. There was nothing in my stomach and I was just throwing up bile. I was dehydrated at that time because I had not had anything to drink. I stayed in the bathroom on a rug for some time.  I don't remember how long I was in there. I was basically dry heaving. Whatever bile and acid that was left in my stomach, I was throwing it up. My stomach started hurting from the vomiting. I called the local dispatch. I didn't want to leave the house. I wanted to see if I could talk to someone at a local ER. She told me that she couldn't give me any medical advice on the phone. I told her I didn't want to leave the house and she asked me for my address. She was rude. I told her I didn't want anybody coming to my apartment. She got snippy with me. I didn't want to leave the apartment because I didn't want the neighbors to see me being taken away by paramedics. I was in no condition to drive. The next day, I thought about driving over to a hospital then. I was not sure about what kind of medical coverage I had so I tried to ride it out. I just felt awful all day Sunday and Monday. I am trying to cope with this. I try not to move too quickly. I try not to turn my head too far to the left. I just got up a little while ago to go to the bathroom. I'm feeling pretty bad off. It feels like the movement in my head is getting more and more limited. I get nauseated when I look down. If I move my head even slightly to the left or right, my neck starts to lock. My stomach is hurting. I also get nausea. I threw up this morning also. I can't keep hardly anything down. I sipped on some distilled water in the bathroom and I started throwing that up. I was just trying to hydrate. I also had some crackers off and on. I also have had some herbal tea. I have been lying down on the couch. It takes me a long time to get up because I am very dizzy. My head is spinning now even more. When I tried to get up this morning, my head started to immediately spin. It is very hard to get up. I have to walk very, very slowly so that I don't fall. I've never felt anything like it. I have had vertigo before in 2016, so I know what that feels like. This is far worse than that. My head feels like it is violently thrashing from side to side. I called the clinic and spoke to a doctor who told me to go to the ER right away. I feel like I'm not going to make it. I feel like I'm either going to die from this, or fall and hit my head. There is nobody to call to help me out. My sensitivity to motion has gotten much worse. It's like a persistence. I can barely move my head at all without getting dizzy. My vision is very blurry. I am not sure if I am seeing double or not. My speech is very slow. I have basically just been staying lying down. I have so much fatigue. I am just so tired. I am worn out. I am very achy and is exaggerates my dizziness.
