Additional information: Patient reported pretty red sore spot the size of a golf ball raised above the skin that is on her right upper arm where she received the Pfizer Booster for Covid shot. Patient described as the Pfizer Booster for Covid shot was the one giving her these problems. She was at her doctor's on 13May2022 and he said that she may want to report this to Pfizer and put a cold pack on the site. However, patient thought heat would feel better. Onset time was unknown other than she noticed site being sore and when the band-aid came up she realized it was red and raised. Site was real sore on 12May2022 and was sore today, i.e. 13May2022 and she really noticed the red this morning, on 13May2022. Patient provided separately that she was regular getting injections, they do her spine, her hands, her feet. Her hands was not good; she had a real bad accident so her left hand was bad and her right hand was getting bad with arthritis. She thought she did too many times holding the rope and beating, but not actually beating, the horses. Patient does not feel good, had got a sinus infection too. She mentioned that she had a bunch of surgery on her head so she could not tell when she was writing her last name how many 'm's there were, her writing was getting worse. They were really kind of sick but had the opportunity, they were fortunate, to be able to take it kind of easy. She had not even gotten a flu shot. No relevant testing had been done relative to this event. In a couple of weeks she was going for an unrelated CAT scan for something they were keeping an eye on. She had a hard time keeping weight on. She got to hurting with the injections wearing off already and she had some paresis and diverticulitis in there so she had to watch what she ate and it just kind of comes on with a lot of stress. Some people stress eat, she does not, she stress don't eats. The only treatment or other medical interventions relative to this event were the advisement to use cold packs and she was taking some Tylenol. She was a veterinarian tech and if they gave a horse a shot of penicillin real bad on the neck or flu shot the horse site would swell up like the size of both hands together so they would put heat on the areas.  No follow-up attempts are possible; information about lot/batch number cannot be obtained. No further information is expected.
