She said her primary care doctor said she had some kind of internal bleeding. She said it was like an old lady bruise & was a deep purple; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer reporting for self. A 54-year-old female patient received the first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in Arm Left on 15Mar2021 (Batch/Lot Number: EN6205) as single dose for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included rash. There were no concomitant medications. The patient reported she had her first COVID-19 Vaccine dose, and was due to get the second COVID-19 Vaccine (today, 07Apr2021, at 4:20PM). She said she went to her (primary care) doctor, and wanted to check with Pfizer because she had a weird reaction after she had her first COVID-19 Vaccine. She said she had a bruise on the corner of her face by her (left) eye. She said her (primary care) doctor said she had some kind of internal bleeding. The caller said it was like an old lady bruise, and was a deep purple color. She clarified she noticed the bruise when she woke up at a little before 7:00AM on 16Mar2021. She said the bruise lasted for 5 days, and kind of dissipated on its own, and then the bruise was gone. She said she had her COVID-19 Vaccine shot in her left arm (on 15Mar2021), and then woke up in the morning (on 16Mar2021), and the bruise (on the left side of her face) was there. She said she went to her eye doctor to check to see if there was any bleeding in her left eye, and there was no bleeding. She said her (primary care) doctor had blood work done (on 23Mar2021), and checked to see if she had any internal bleeding. She said her blood work seemed OK. She said she knows her doctor can't answer any questions about the COVID-19 Vaccine, so that was why she contacted Pfizer. She said she also had her blood checked for the COVID-19 Virus antibodies (on 31Mar2021). She said she does have the COVID-19 Virus antibodies. She said she knew the COVID-19 Virus antibody testing was new. She said she didn't know what was considered to be a high versus low COVID-19 Virus antibody level, and that her COVID-19 Virus antibody level was a 6.12. She said she had her COVID-19 Virus antibody test 16 days after her first COVID-19 Vaccine. She said she made sure her COVID-19 Virus antibody test was done at least 2 weeks after getting her first COVID-19 Vaccine. Reported she also had a rash on either 04Apr2021 or 05Apr2021. She said in the past, she had a rash happen the first time she went in the sun, and she wasn't sure if her rash was related to sun exposure, or her first COVID-19 Vaccine dose. She clarified she was pretty sure her rash was from sun exposure. She said since she had been out of the sun, her rash was starting to go away. She clarified she had a rash only on the parts of her that were exposed to the sun. She said she seemed to get a rash after her first exposure to the sun. She said she had read up on having a rash to sun exposure, and the rash was like an immune reaction to the UVA rays. She said the rash was not itchy, and was only bumps. No further details provided. Reported she was one of those small percent of people who gets a really weird reaction to things, so her doctor wasn't surprised when she had the bruise after getting the first COVID-19 Vaccine. She said she was very small at 105 lbs., and always takes a children-size portion of things. No further details provided. Reported half of her wanted to get the second COVID-19 Vaccine dose, and the other half of her was afraid she would have some sort of weird reaction. She said since she was already protected with the COVID-19 Virus antibodies, did she need to get the second COVID-19 Vaccine. Caller asked how long do the COVID-19 Virus antibodies last, saying she heard their might be a COVID-19 Vaccine booster shot in the future. Caller stated she had so many questions she wanted to ask. Caller was advised she would be transferred to Pfizer Medical Information for further assistance. Outcome of event rash was recovering, of other was recovered in Mar2021.   No follow-up attempts are possible. No further information is expected.
