The events occurred  2 days after third dose of mRNA 1273 vaccine. The patient experienced the same effect after the second dose, which somewhat abated prior to the booster, but was still uncomfortable.  Then 2 nights after the booster, patient felt the symptoms but less forceful than the second shot, and 3 nights after the booster, the symptoms was same intensity as after the second shot.
