She states she called after her husband died and was sent some papers to fill out by Pfizer and when she got to the last page it asks if you are a physician and reporting information. States it asks name of person filling out the form and the facility address. She is asking does she need to take this to a doctor to fill out or can she. States the letter says (Name withheld) regarding the event and states it has the wrong lot number, that isn't the lot number on his card. States the letter says they would like to ask her to provide further information and attached is a questionnaire. She is asking does she fill it out, it has questions like lot number for both vaccine and on another page, there are 3 things like onset date which was 3 days after he took the last vaccine he broke out on his arms and legs. States that then another section she guesses is the same onset date she is assuming. she was sent this paperwork in Jul2021 and has not done it as she has been grieving her husband so hard.  She states he had a heart attack initially.  She states she can do those 2 and the other one has the vaccine name and to list below the drugs taken within 2 weeks before the onset and to include all drugs administered before the event. She is asking would that be home medication.  She relays he only took a cholesterol pill and aspirin and a prostate pill; he was taking those before the shot and she thinks she will list those and the only other medication was when he developed shingles they put him on 3 different medications right before and she would list those probably. She relays there was nothing wrong with him he just had cholesterol and it was lower than hers. He was a retired vet and kept all his (Name) appointments and they never say anything unusual with his labs and if they did, they talked to the doctor. She states other than the shingles he had hernia repair. He worked out all the time and didn't have any illnesses. She States the paperwork says relevant diagnosis and to list testing like blood tests. She is asking is this all necessary, can't they just get this. She relays he had a Covid test before the hernia surgery in Mar2021 and that was negative. States the paperwork asks in the case of death was an autopsy performed. She states no. She states the paperwork threw her off.  She will provide information for follow up during call and not send in paperwork. She states his last shot was 16Feb2021 and he went to the clinic on 21Feb2021 because he broke out in a rash and was diagnosed with a rash on his legs and arms and was put on Triamcinolone topical cream for itching. States he was also put on Prednisone 5mg pack, you start with so many a day and wean down over 6 days and on day 6 he was down to 1. Started these on 21Feb2021. She states he had hernia repair and we already know about that, and he got blisters on his stomach and seemed to think that came from the Tegaderm and he had used Tegaderm before and never broke out. She states that on 23Apr2021, it started before the 23Apr2021, he went to the doctor he thought he had a rash on his back, and it was determined to be a bad case of shingles, so they put him on Acyclovir 1 tablet 800mg by mouth 5 times a day for 10 days and he started that 23Apr2021. She States he was also started on Gabapentin 300mg, 1 capsule by mouth three times a day for 10 days started 23Apr2021 and Prednisone 10mg for 6 days started on 23Apr2021. She relays he was on Rosuvastatin 10mg 1 every night with an Aspirin.  She relays about 2 years ago he had an enlarged prostrate and his numbers started coming down after he started the medication Tamsulosin 0.4 mg 1 capsule by mouth every morning. She states she ordered his medication for him from the website, and he started this early last year and it was working, and he didn't have prostate cancer he had an enlarged prostates just a little. She States that vitamins were only other thing he took. She states she went to medical records and got his records. She states it is really a shocker for her because the last week of his life he complained about being lightheaded and said he was a little short of breath and she told him he really needed to go back and get checked out again and he said if he could just get rid of the nerve pain, he would be ok and thought it was the medication.   She States he wasn't diabetic or high blood pressure and she already told previously about this guy she met, a friend of one of her husband students that was asking what happened and ran it down and said he had a heart attack after shingles and were talking about the vaccine and when she told the agent he had bad case she has seen shingles but has never seen anything like this it was really bad. She States that she asked (Name withheld) if he got it after and she showed him pictures of her husband and she reported to the health department and more than 1 person got shingles after that vaccine. She States that (Name withheld) also had shingles. She States that in her heart, she has done a lot of praying and asked God to guide her with these things and she feels he was not a good candidate for the shot. She States he was allergic and sensitive to things, and she couldn't dye her hair and lay on him. She relays that other got the vaccine and got shingles and the vaccine is not good for everybody. She States he worked out and it didn't dawn on her after the shot that he broke out. She States he would get the survey and would say honey it popped up on the phone and is asking about rash or this and that and she took pictures of everything. She States that after he died, she looked back and the blisters on his legs and the rash on his arms was 4 days after and it didn't dawn on her to add that information as she didn't think it was related to the shot. She States he started breaking out 4 days after the shot and they sent the question thing about fever and rash and this and that and she matched the dates and clarifies it was 5 days later that he broke out. She States that was the 1st thing and led from 1 thing to another and the shingles took the cake. She relays that she knows as we get older, we can get shingles and she know other people got it too and we are still learning about the side effects for the shot and some people report and some don't. She states that God led her to do this and her husband was a disabled vet and she prayed after he died, she has a relative that puts in data for side effects and they came there and she said they had over 1000 cases where people had taken the shot and gotten shingles and she let that go out of her head a little and continued to pray for guidance if the shot and the shingles had anything to do with it. She states she was faxing papers to the (Name) and tried to go to her friends place and she wasn't home and went to supply store and what are the odds that someone else got shingles and the shot. She declines to make a report for him. She States she must go there today and will ask him if he has reported. She states the only difference between him and her husband (Name withheld) who was 67, if the call handler had seen the pictures she would fall out, they were clusters on from the seam of his back if you spread your hand out it went around the right to the middle of his check spread out and (Name withheld) was on the very same side but he didn't have as many and (Name withheld) in in his early 50's. She states her cousin told her they felt kind a funny and asked should they take the 2nd and caller states she won't tell anyone what to do, she won't say don't take it, it's just not for everybody and some people get turned away.  She states her husband worked out, they lost their son in October in an accident, and both were grieving, it was their 2nd son they had lost, the other was 2015 and when they buried him, they started working out again. She States her husband was in the (withheld) boxing hall of fame in 2017.  She States he worked out every day and got shingles and that stopped him. She States that after the blisters were gone, she never thought death, the only thing left was nerve pain and he said if he could get past that. She States she knows that shingles can cause heart attack and after the shot he started breaking out.  She relays he died 15May2021 and she did CPR and watched him die before her eyes and her sons were at work. she still can't sleep in the bedroom.  She states the shot is not meant for everyone and it won't get her husband back and she knows that God does not make mistakes and knows we are going to go but the Bible does speak of premature death.  She states the only other thing he took was a multivitamin, Vitamin C and D, he just took them every morning and other than that he was not on blood pressure pills and was not diabetic, honey was just honey. She States he was her best friend. He had 3 sons and she have 2 and they weren't stepsons they were our children.  She states he felt the shingles bringing him down. She relays he was a great husband and when the pandemic started, she retired in Jun2020. She states he was always with her. States that she does not have a last name for (Name withheld) but he showed her pictures of his back, and it was confirmation and her cousin saying she puts data in is one thing but to meet someone that had the same this is another.
