Clinical narrative: Uveitis (underlying condition occurring once every 2-3 years, I was NOT in a flare up at the time of the injection), and mouth ulcers (underlying condition occurring 2-3 times a year, I was NOT in a flare up at the time of the injection). For the Uveitis I went to my eye doctor and started a prednisolone regimen and am still on it. I received the 2nd does (lot EL9264) yesterday on 3 Feb at 09:00am. The mouth ulcers were treated with oral medication-Valtrex. 2nd dose does not seem to have aggravated the above noted reactions. Other symptoms common to the injection are occurring but seem more intense after the 2nd dose (aches, low energy, some minor coughing)

Vaccine: COVID19
Symptoms: Back pain, Gait disturbance, Pain
Clinical narrative: approx 16 hours after I received the vaccine I awoke in excruciating pain. My back hurt so badly I was having trouble walking and both upper arms felt as though they were in a vice. I had been warned that side effects might be significant but this was like nothing I had ever experienced. I spent the next 15 hours in pain and at first I worried that somehow I had gotten the virus. At about 4:30 am the pain disappeared and it was like I had never even experienced it.  I am reporting this because of the extreme pain I had and the odd way it just disappeared with no after effects. I did not seek medical attention because I felt fine by the time doctors offices would have been open.

Clinical narrative: Severe bone pain lasting approximately 16 hours, beginning at around 01:00am the day following the vaccine (2nd dose). It felt like when you hit your elbow too hard and get both a deep, dull, aching pain, and a burning, shooting nerve pain.

I also experienced muscle spasms in my arms, legs, and lower back, with nerve pain shooting from my lower back into my legs, almost like sciatica. The pain was between a 7 or 8/10 at most times and was some of the worst pain I?ve continuously felt in my life. The pain subsided around 16 hours after starting, however I?m still experiencing occasional shooting pain or sudden aching in my bones or muscle spasms, although it?s usually only one area at a time and very brief/manageable. During the 16 hours, I also had joint stiffness that was severe enough to limit my ability to move and I had difficulty walking to the bathroom or shifting positions in bed. It also mostly subsided after the 16 hours, however I am still experiencing minor joint stiffness still.

Symptoms: Abdominal discomfort, Chills, Diarrhoea, Fall, Fatigue
Clinical narrative: I woke up at 1:30am with nausea, chills, sweating, and  diarrea. I went to the bathroom and vomited, my vision started darkening. After some time sitting on the toilet I stood up to wash my hands and reach for a hair tie to put my hair up because I was sweating profusely. I felt my vision darkening again and fell to the ground. I never lost consciousness and laid on the ground for a few seconds. I felt my stomach begin to churn again so I got up and sat on the toilet and began having diarrhea again. I texted my sister to come upstairs and bring me a Tylenol and some peppermint oil for my stomach. I took 1000mg of Tylenol, rolled peppermint oil on my stomach and stayed sitting with a cold towel on my head. I was then able to stand up and go back to bed at around 3am (shortly after taking the Tylenol). The next morning I woke up at around 8:30am, still feeling fatigued and mild chills. The diarrea and nausea are gone.

Six hours later I began to be fatigued. No appetite, moderate nausea and continued fatigue. (Not achy, no fever or chills). The next day was pretty much the same, no appetite, moderate nausea, continued fatigue.   This symptoms continued until 9PM and like a light switch, I felt much better.  At the injection site there was a hard knot (making my arm look like I had very nice biceps!), sore only when pressure was applied. This area stayed hard and larger than normal for about 6 days.

Clinical narrative: I received the vaccine on 01/13/2021 and only had mild arm tenderness at the site for a couple of days with some mild to moderate fatigue and sleepiness. On the 10th day after the vaccine which would have been on 01/21/2021 my left arm which was the arm that I received the vaccine in was itching and red with hives and warm to the touch and these symptoms lasted until the evening of 01/24/2021 and then that night I developed a fever with severe stomach pain along with vomiting and diarrhea  and headache which lasted throughout the day of 01/25/2021. I was very fatigued and sleepy and then on 01/28/2021 I woke up with a blister to my forehead and then later that afternoon developed another one on my neck and then a few more later that night to the back of my neck on my c-spine. On 01/30/2021 my left ear was very sore to the back side of it and also the inside of my ear was itchy and painful as if I was developing a small pimple . This developed into itching to the inside of my ear and also redness and what looks like a rash and some eczema as this was looked at by  one of the RN's here at the clinic. I am still continuing to have fatigue and sleepiness which is not normal for me and I am still having bouts of diarrhea and stomach pain that is not my normal stomach pain. I also sent this to doctor as I wanted this to be documented in my medical record as I am due for my booster vaccine on 02/10/2021 and I am not feeling up to par to receive this at that time. Another concern is the fact that at times I do feel energetic but then all of a sudden I just feel weighed down like my arms and legs are too heavy to use. I have continued to exercise during this time but not for my full hour that I normally do every day. I am very concerned how I will react to the booster if this first one caused all of these reactions as on a normal day I only weigh 114 pounds and at my heaviest maybe 116 and I dropped down to 111 pounds this past week and I am aware that this is more than likely due to the vomiting and diarrhea and was dehydrated for a couple of days. I am going to wait for my booster until I can get more reassurance on this and am feeling more like myself .
