Additional Information: Calling because she had all the Pfizer vaccines for covid and now since she has had that taken care of, she is so tired all the time and especially her legs where she can barely walk.  She walks with a walker and the majority of the time her legs cannot hardly hold her up anymore and she is tired all the time and never used to nap in the afternoon but if she has breakfast she falls right off to sleep in the recliner and takes another nap in the afternoon to make it through the day and this is not normal for her and it started after she has all the Pfizer vaccines. She wanted them to know about this and she is very very sorry she started taking it because she did not have all these problems before she started taking the vaccines. The reported events began when they started giving the first shots out. 1st Pfizer shot was on 28Jan2021 and she has to get a magnifying glass for the handwriting on her patient card and it is hard to read but it looks like lot number EL8982; the next one was 18Feb2021 with lot number starting with the letter E and she has to go get  something to drink and cannot talk anymore; states the lot number for the dose on 18Feb2021 is EN531 and then looks like F or T but looks more like F at the end of that number; the next one she does not have the date for but it says stamped on there Pfizer Biontech covid19 vaccine NDC 59267-1000-02 and lot FH8020, expiry date 20Jan2022; states she got them all and the next one was on 10Aug2022 and lot number FW1330 and the pharmacy was #1306 pharmacy; there was one more vaccine she had and it was lot number GH9697 and was on 08Nov2022 and was from the same pharmacy. She is almost 90 years old so that is probably part of the reason. The tiredness and having difficulty lifting her legs started early and has been going on for she would say after the 2nd dosage 18Feb2021 and that is when it started but it has gotten to the point where she cannot hardly walk, and it is not just the legs and feet where she can hardly but going up stairs is almost impossible. The second dose information is populated into the formal suspect product field. Just went to another doctor yesterday and came back to her son's and his wife's home for lunch and they have some steps that she had to go up and she needed their help on both sides to lift from one step to the next because she could not lift her legs and can't lift her legs. The being unable to lift her legs and the tiredness has definitely worsened and she is so tired and can't sleep and gets probably anywhere between 4-6 hours on a really good night at most and sometimes that is broken up and after she has breakfast at 8:00am she comes back to her room so tired an sits in the recliner and falls right back to sleep exhausted just from walking and she is the 4th resident down the hall and from the lobby and dining room off the lobby. By the time she gets back to the room she is exhausted and sits in the recliner and falls right back to sleep and wakes up and it is lunchtime. All the vaccines were in her upper arm on her right arm because she sleeps on her left side and always asks for them to be in the right shoulder from the elbow up to shoulder in that area. Had physical therapy numerous times but it is just like putting on a band aid for a huge wound and it has not lasted and it is something that she cannot do and she tries to walk up and down the halls there but she comes back exhausted and she has to sit down and falls right off to sleep because she is so exhausted and it is hard for her to lift her legs let alone do any amount of walking and she is trying her best but is struggling there. The vaccines were not administered at the pharmacy. She has been to see the doctor numerous times and has seen a rheumatologist because she has gout in both feet now and it just affects her whole legs and feet and the gout began when everything happened around the same time. The patient had no prior vaccination within 4 weeks. The patient had no family medical history related to adverse event. She feels crummy every day and does not have any stamina to even stand up for any long period and her legs get so weak and she tries to walk any distance and forget that and two people assist her to climb stairs as she cannot lift her legs up. If there were a magic bullet or something to give her strength back as she is so weak all the time and it seems like every year it just gets worst and she is getting weaker every year.   The information on the batch/lot number for BNT162b2 will be requested and submitted if and when received.
