Vaccine: COVID19
Symptoms: Acute myocardial infarction, Angiogram, Cardiac telemetry, Chest pain, Dizziness
Clinical narrative: The nurse gave me an injection into my left deltoid but after pushing the syringe and removing the needle she stated "I'm unsure if I had any vaccine in that shot.  No I'm almost positive I didn't have any, it just didn't push right. Oh well, we will just give you another one."  I asked if she was sure in which she stated "yes I'm fairly certain I didn't have any vaccine in there.  You only got this much (pointing to the syringe) of air so it will be fine.  We will just give you another one."  I asked if she was sure that that would be ok, in case I did get vaccine in the injection.  She reassured me again and stated that it would be fine.  On Monday evening I felt "off" and felt like my heart was beating faster than normal but went to bed.  In the morning I felt better so went to the gym as I do most days of the week at 5am.  During class I felt a slight burn in my chest but it went away fairly quickly.  On the way home from the gym I noticed that my heart rate was note returning to baseline as quickly as it normally would and noticed on my apple watch that my HR was between 120-130bpm.  I started feeling sick and dizzy and got really sweaty.  I also started to feel like I was going to pass out so I pulled over and called my husband for reassurance.  During our phone call I felt sick and ended up throwing up.  Afterwards I started to feel well enough to drive the rest of the way home.  While getting ready for work I noticed that my heart rate was still above it's normal and was between 100-120bpm.  I called my local PCP who recommended that I present to the ER.  While at the ER my heart rate was slowly returning to baseline.  No abnormalities were observed on the EKG and all labs were normal except an elevated troponin of 50.  Due to the elevated troponin I was admitted to the hospital for observation and was in the hospital from 12/14-12/16.  My discharge diagnosis was Minoca and I am still undergoing testing.

Symptoms: Back injury, Gait disturbance, Intervertebral disc protrusion, Mobility decreased, Pain
Clinical narrative: Earlier in the week, I tweaked my back.  That day and every day up and including my Moderna vaccine booster I was well on my way to recovering from sciatica.  In fact, I needed no pain meds and only took Tylenol and Advil while continuing to walk several miles per day, doing 80-100 bodyweight squats (full range of motion), and doing pilates work on a reformer.  Thursday after the shot, I barely could get out of bed and I couldn't walk very far without assistance.  By Saturday I could not sleep because of the pain.  Sunday, I was in such bad shape that I laid on the floor of the bathroom for 5 hours finally giving up and calling the ambulance.  At the ER I had a dozen or so rescue doses of Fentanyl, Morphine, and Valium.  None of them took away the pain.  I didn't sleep that night and I was unable to get an MRI unless sedated.  Finally, by Tuesday I slept and the pain decreased.  I feel that I'm well on my way to recovery but I've never experienced such pain and I have been stabbed, shot, broken bones, knocked out, 2 back surgeries, and 3 sinus surgeries.

Symptoms: Injected limb mobility decreased, Injection site pain, Insomnia, Pain in extremity, Sleep disorder
Clinical narrative: Pt sent letter to pharmacy stating: I am 65 years old.  I was given an Influenza Virus Vaccine October 6, 2021 by a staff member in your pharmacy.  I've had several flu vaccines throughout the years, and other than a bit of tenderness at the injection site, I've never had an issue whatsoever.  This time I did.  The person administering the vaccination gave me the injection, and although the injection itself was painful, I didn't think anything of it.  The employee told me to remain for 15 minutes in case of a reaction of some sort.  I agreed but told her I had some shopping to do that would take at least that long.  Before leaving the store, I did notice my arm was in pain, but recalled other friends have told me their flu shots were painful, and in some cases lasted a week or so.  My arm has remained in pain since that day.  I am an avid workout individual, and every active person.  My left arm is limited in performing everyday functions, such as attaching my seatbelt, carrying my 2 year old granddaughter, putting on clothes, working out, and reaching to some length.  the pain even affects my sleeping.  Since October 6th, I have not had a complete night of sleep.  I did finally perform an internet search and found that my shot could have been given with a larger needle than my small frame can handle.  Another article mentioned a flu vaccine could cause a type of pre-arthritis.  Anyway, I did finally see a doctor today (pt's letter was dated 11-29-21 and received by pharmacy 12/20/21) and she is treating me with a drug for possible inflammation and muscle relaxer to help me sleep.  I know I possibly should have notified you earlier, but I continue to believe the pain would eventually subside, and I'm certainly hoping it does now that I have medication.  I'm notifying you at the request of my doctor.  She believes, if it's possible the pain is directly from the vaccination, then it's vital that I notify you, so that this does not happen again.  I know I will certain be asking more questions about needle size etc before getting another vaccine of any sort.

Clinical narrative: About 8 days after my Covid booster, and 1 day after I got my flu shot, I developed a red, painful, severely itchy rash with hives over most of my body. It severely disrupted my sleep and my ability to  work and perform basic life functions. I waited a few days in hopes it would resolve, but it got worse. I called my GP and got a course of oral steroids (prednisone). This brought down the severity somewhat, but the rash continued. I sought out my dermatologist (I do have chronic eczema) and he stated he?s had at least one other patient develop the same thing about a week post-Covid booster. He told me to start taking my Zyrtec twice a day (I?ve been taking it once a day for years) and to use a pain/itch-relieving OTC lotion. That has been working well so far but the rash is still present and still flares up from time to time.

Clinical narrative: The vaccination was given in the shoulder area. After 2 hours, I wasn't able to raise my left arm more than 5 inches. It was very painful to move my left arm and I had very little range of motion. My Doctor referred me to a shoulder specialist. He also confirmed that the vaccine was given in the shoulder. I was given stretches to do and was told to take 6 Advils a day for 2 weeks. The arm got better, but I still have pain in my left shoulder. My main concern is that sooner or later I'm gonna get the Doctor's visits bills.
