Clinical narrative: I still have dizziness; I still have dizziness and fuzziness; vertigo; Extremely itchy; swollen injection site; Pain in arm; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer or other non hcp (patient) reported for herself that.  A 36-years-old non pregnant female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Batch/Lot Number: EW0162; Expiration Date: 31Jul2021 and NDC number: 59267-1000-02) via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 17Apr2021 11:00 (age at vaccination 36-years-old) as dose 1, 0.3ml single for covid-19 immunisation. The most recent COVID-19 vaccine was administered at Pharmacy or Drug Store. Medical history included covid-19 from Dec2020 to an unknown date. Patient had been diagnosed with COVID-19 prior to vaccination. The patient had not received any other vaccine within 4 weeks. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. On 17Apr2021 (same day of vaccination), the patient experienced swollen injection site and pain in arm. On 18Apr2021, the patient experienced extremely itchy. On an unspecified date, the patient experienced dizziness and fuzziness. On 25Apr2021, the patient experienced vertigo, Extreme vertigo starting day 7. Further explained that pain in arm started after half the day passed following vaccine and lasted and was bad for 4 days. Her armed swelled up gulf ball size, at injection, red, from shoulder down to hand was really itchy for a good 7 days after the injection, arm was really sore and couldn't itch. The redness and swelling itching were 24 hours after vaccine and stayed for 7 or 8 days. Never experienced vertigo before. Vertigo hit 8 days after the injection. She realizes it could be unrelated, but just seems strange it would come up. The patient reported that 8 days after vaccine woke up in middle of night with horrible vertigo, bed was spinning like teacup ride at Disneyland and vertigo persisted really bad for 3 days, it's been getting better as the week goes on. The patient stated that spent most of the week in bed, felt like going to fall, had to treat it like a migraine, had light sensitivity and all the things that go with that dizziness, fuzzy, lied in bed with eyes covered and in the dark, was the only way for sense of relief. Saw her doctor. She believes it could be a reaction to vaccine, never had vertigo before, never experienced in her life. Never had a super strong reaction to a vaccine, other than pain at injection site, never had redness and gulf ball size. She was wondering if the vertigo was something people were reporting. The patient visited to doctor or other healthcare professional office/clinic visit. The patient had not been tested since the vaccination. So, therefore she was just now getting her first dose. She stated that her arm did swell up and had redness at the injection site. She states that it got really itchy, and her arm stayed itchy for a week. She stated that she did see her doctor and they prescribed her METHAZOLE or METHAZINE. She was not sure of the name, but it was a drug that supposed to help with dizziness. She stated that she took it for a couple days, but it did more harm than good. She stated that it made her feel loopy and wasn't helpful. She stated she was supposed to get her second dose this Saturday 08May2021 and she was a little concerned from her reaction to the first vaccine, she stated that there was a slight chance that it could be non-vaccine related, but she never had vertigo before and she just wanted to know what Pfizer would recommend, and has Pfizer had other people calling with these symptoms. The outcome of the events I still have dizziness and fuzziness and pain in arm was unknown. The outcome of the events swollen injection site, extremely itchy and vertigo was not recovered.  Information on Lot/Batch number was available. No further information is expected.
