Clinical narrative: The night of the second dose of my Pfizer Covid vaccine, my face began to feel hot and tight. The next day, I began with the expected flu like symptoms of the vaccine, accompanied by a red, fine bumpy rash with some swelling on my face where it had felt hot and tight the evening prior. The flu like symptoms lasted about 24 hours. The facial rash persisted and I began oral antihistamines - diphenhydramine and famotidine. The rash continued for one full week, only improving after beginning to use topical hydrocortisone on my face at the suggestion of a friend who is a nurse practitioner. After improvement in the rash I stopped hydrocortisone and antihistamines. The rash reappeared about 5 days later, and continues to randomly reappear about once a week to every 10 days. Flares only last about 24-36 hours now and will go away without medication but it does clear faster with hydrocortisone and antihistamines. The rash only flares at night, and no triggers like heat, alcohol or certain foods seem to bring it out.  I have been consistently taking famotidine and cetirizine daily since the last flare of the rash, and have not experienced a flare again yet.

Symptoms: Fatigue, Feeling cold, Injection site inflammation, Injection site swelling, Injection site warmth
Clinical narrative: Started having chills and feeling feverish within about an hour of receiving shot and was fatigued for a day. That only lasted the day. However, the side effect that is more concerning is that, about four days after the shot, I noticed that the area around the injection site, other than the bruise, was inflamed. The swelling and heat have gone down a bit, but there is still indication and a feeling on inflammation about the size of my palm around the injection site.  Also, I have still been suffering from some fatigue. I usually sleep well and wake up refreshed, but since the shot, I wake up still very tired, and I have been getting enough sleep.
