A 60-year-old female patient received first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE, solution for injection) via an unspecified route of administration on 28Jan2021 (at the age of 60-year-old) (Batch/Lot number: Not provided) as single dose for COVID-19 immunisation and metformin, via unspecified route of administration from unspecified date to unspecified date at unspecified dose and frequency for diabetes. The patient medical history and concomitant medications were not reported. The patient experienced could hardly sleep through the night, woke up in the morning, whole face was swollen and throat, arm swelled up and neck and then it would dissipate and itch on my face on 29Jan2021. Face would start swelling up and tingling; it would get chapped, and pump pimples, throat would get all red, barely woke up; did not have no strength, felt like horrible, rash on 30Jan2021 and slight headache, little tired, my throat has like started to hurt a little, fatigue, on an unspecified date in 2021. Consumer mentioned that about the lot number"They didn't give me a card." Consumer stated, "I got the Pfizer shot last month on 28Jan2021 and then I was like, within 24 hours, I had at night like an itch on my face but nothing big. But then I could hardly sleep through the night but when I woke up in the morning, my whole face was swollen and my throat. And so, I hurried to, I went to urgent care and the doctor was surprised that I didn't have anaphylactic reaction. So, I took the Benadryl. He didn't give me a shot but I picked it up right there at the pharmacy and then I took the Benadryl. So I have taken that for probably like 8 days and then off and on, I have been taking it because sometimes my face would start swelling up and tingling would get chapped, and pump pimples and then either it would get chapped, you know, face stuff and pump pimples and anyways rash. So, every day I have been having something different. You know, my arm swelled up and my neck and then it would dissipate all of a sudden. I have had like my throat would get all red. Every day I was like getting an 'over flu' (not clarified). I wasn't expecting something like that but then just keeps going on. I went to work and then the first day, a few days after I had gotten the shot, I barely made it to the night. I work in ICU, so 'on my plead' (not confirmed) but anyways. So I barely woke up and I did not have no strength. It was like holding in. But I told my supervisor in the morning that I had my shot, I have a bad reaction since I got it. I felt like so horrible. So anyway, ever since then, it's just I went to work yesterday, two days Sunday, Monday. Yesterday, all of a sudden, like at about 3 o' clock in the morning, my face started swelling again and I got the rash. And my throat was whole like red. So, I took a Benadryl and it started going down little bit but I still (incomplete sentence). Overnight, it started dissipating and the redness of my throat, that was so red, it got less. So, now, I was just wondering how long will this keep going on or I have my next shot on next Wednesday, a lot of it got better on it. They said you have had a bad reaction like that, so you shouldn't get the second shot. So right now I am wondering what to do. Consumer further stated I just went to urgent care on 30Jan2021. The doctor just checked me and told me to use up Benadryl that helped reducing the swelling. So yeah but anyways, I wanted to go to my doctor but I am talking to you guys first because I got the shot from you guys. My doctor can do nothing unless my medical compares to what you guys says. Consumer stated, "Well no. I am every day I am just like having like a slight headache, or a little tired, fatigued and then my throat has like started to hurt a little. Sometimes it goes away a little bit. Consumer stated, "The only thing I do take is for my diabetes that I haven't been taking that since I got the shot because I want to make sure it doesn't mix with it.
