After getting the vaccine she had wobbles in the right hand, from left to right. It was not just the shakes, but like a neurological event. Neurological event, wobbles in hand: This is in right hand. It happens randomly. At first she was not too concerned about it and did not pay attention to it. She clarified it did first start after the first dose within a week. However, it got stronger after the second dose. It is not controllable. It happens on it's own. She has to grab her hand to make it stop. Then mentioned after the first dose she had a sore arm.

The only time was when she took a quick pen in the past when she started on Cortisone shots for Psoriatic arthritis because she was informed Cortisone shots could raise it. So she was provided with the quick pen to help with that. She later found out with Cortisone she was having more of a hypoglycemic reaction. That is how her body reacted. Cortisone She gets it from the doctor's. Has not had any in   8-9 months. She had a kidney infection a couple of weeks ago. She had called and told the nurse about the events. However, she could not be seen by her regular doctor, as all booked up. She was informed a message was left for the doctor and the doctor called in the Lantus and Quick Pen. She went to be seen for the kidney infection last week, but saw a different doctor. She told the doctor about the about the wobble in her hand and blood sugar and the doctor informed her he did not think it was from the shot. It was like brushed off. Caller clarified she gets kidney infections frequently/constantly. She was prescribed an antibiotic. At end of call she added she knew she was getting the COVID Vaccine and she has not taken the Cortisone shot in sometime. She remembered she heard a lot of people mentioned being on Cortisone and having a sore arm after getting the COVID shot and flu like symptoms. The events were not required a visit to Emergency Room. Outcome of She had wobbles in the right hand, from left to right was not recovered and outcome of the other events was unknown.   Information on the lot/batch number has been requested.
