Additional information: She has had a side effect with her ears too. She said agent was loud. That same night after her second booster, she had to go to the Emergency room at 1 o'clock am. She had chest pain and she was having trouble breathing. It came to her attention when someone later asked if the Emergency room reported it to Pfizer. She doesn't know if they did. She is still having side effects. She still has the sniffles it is like her body is still trying to fight this. When this happened, she went to the emergency room. Her equilibrium is off, and her balance. He taste is off and her smell is off. She had an ENT doctor look at her because her throat is swollen and red. She has lymph nodes in her neck. The doctor said he had never seen anything like it. Her head has been hurting which may be stress related. Her ears hurt. Her chest still feels tight which has been an ongoing issue. The doctor put her on some antibiotics to get the lymph nodes in her neck down.  The lymph nodes were making her airway feel like it was blocked. At first the pharmacist said don't take prednisone because it could lower the strength. So she had to suffer for the first two weeks. At the emergency room they did IVs, x-rays, and a COVID test.
