A 48-years-old female patient received first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19mRNA VACCINE, Solution for injection, Lot number: FA6780, Expiration date: unknown), via intramuscular route, administered in arm right on 24Aug2021 16:00 as dose 1, single for COVID-19 immunisation, prophylaxis.

Concomitant medication(s) included dupilumab (DUPIXENT) (300mg injections every two weeks) taken for asthma from Mar2020 to an unspecified stop date. The patient received her first dose of Comirnaty on 24Aug2021 and on 25AUG2021 at around 12:30 she began to have numbness on her left side of face and left side of tongue up to her left ear, she states she received the vaccine on her right side the day before at 4pm. On 25Aug2021, patient got off work early and did laundry and was feeling good. She did not have a runny nose or flu like symptoms that were common.  All of a sudden, the left side of her face started going numb.  It would not be numb to where she was droopy, but it was numb from her tongue, cheek, and all the way up to her ear.  It scared her so patient called family doctor and receptionist wanted to know how quick she could get here.  On unspecified date Patient said she was having a panic attack and her husband took her.  Her blood pressure was up because she was upset and her heart rate was up because she was scared. Patient saw her primary doctor on 25Aug2021 and he didn't feel as though it was from the vaccine because that should have happened with in the first 20 minutes and it did not, he asked her what she had to eat and she mentioned Chic-fil-A with their sauce and he says it must be from the sauce not the vaccine. Primary doctor then told her she had a reaction to that.  He asked if her EPI pen was up to date and he did not say if this gets worse, go to emergency room.  She has never had any issues with Chik fil a sauce and has eaten it since then, with no issues.  She left doctor's office with her face still numb. A few days later she went to another doctor for a second opinion about getting the second shot, which should have been yesterday 14Sep2021, and that doctor recommended her not to get the second dose because it sounds like something effected the nerve (unspecified date in Aug2021). He said it was an allergic reaction to the vaccine and said not to get the second dose.  So yesterday, she was supposed to get second shot. She went to her local pharmacy and they did an antibody test to see if she had any antibodies because she has one dose already and they told her she had zero antibodies. She went to her allergy doctor before she got the vaccine and he said there would be no issues with the vaccine and the Dupixent that she takes for Asthma.  She later stated they just told her to space her injections out and not to get them the same week and she did space them out. Asthma was her worse medical condition other than menopause.
