A 65-year-old female patient received first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE, Solution for injection, Batch/Lot Number: FC3183, Expiry date: unknown) via an unspecified route of administration, administered in left arm on 27Aug2021 (age at vaccination: 65-year-old) as a single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included late stage lyme from 1995 to an unknown date, when the patient got her diagnosis, she was advised not take any vaccines, weak heart, heart doesn't beat in a certain rhythm which is exacerbated with stress and patient has had this dizziness before when she got steroidal treatments. The patient has already had COVID twice prior to getting the vaccine. Concomitant medications included amlodipine besylate 2.5 mg one in the morning and one in the evening for her heart, ascorbic acid (BUFFERED VITAMIN C) 500 mg twice a day, astragalus mongholicus root (ASTRAGALUS ROOT EXTRACT) 500 mg twice a day and glucose (GLUCOSE TOLERANT FACTOR) once a day. On an unspecified date in 2021, the first 4-5 days after the first vaccine patient arm that was vaxxed was tender, while washing dishes patient got this weird dizziness that came over her it felt like her head was spinning. Within like a minute or two her left arm, the one vaxed, felt like it was getting heavy and was hurting very sore and weak. The weakness got so bad that she had to stop washing dishes, she let her arm dangle in the sink. Patient propped herself up with her right arm so she wouldn't fall. She breathed her way through it and then it was over in a couple of minutes. A few days late she was in the kitchen washing dishes again and it happened again. This time it was worse- it felt like she was hit in the head with a hammer. She had weakens and the hurting that was worse than the first time. This soreness and weakness were not just in her left arm it was her whole body. Her right arm felt so weak she couldn't prop herself up this time and let her arms flop into the water and rested her head on the counter, she couldn't hold her head up. There was so much weight going into the sink she stopped from falling down. This scared her. Late stage lyme disease is a progressive degeneration of the brain and central nervous system. She has had this dizziness before when she got steroidal treatments but not this bad. She learned that the dizziness is when her spiroketal spot was activated and it increases the reach of the disease into her brain tissue. Within the first week after the first dose patient had two dizzy spells between 31Aug2021 and 04Sep2021, they were two days apart. Therapeutic measures taken as a result of arm was tender included patient took aspirin and was fine and she was good. Patient also had second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE, Solution for injection, Batch/Lot Number: FC3183) via an unspecified route of administration, on 17Sep2021 as a single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. The clinical outcome of arm was tender was fine and she was good, hit in the head with a hammer, muscle weakness, pain, couldn't prop herself up was unknown and outcome of other events was recovering.  Follow-up attempts are completed. No further information is expected.
