Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of bell's palsy, ophthalmic migraine, palpitations.  Clinical course: Patient did not receive other vaccine in four weeks. She had no covid prior vaccination and tested covid post vaccination. Patient reported that the most alarming side effects were Bell's palsy on left side of face with ocular migraines, and sporatic random heart palpitations. She also had the typical low grade fever/chills/headache the following day, but those symptoms ended next day (12Jan2023). Patient wore a heart monitor prescribed to her for one month after her ER visit. The patient was never hospitalized but visited the ER twice for checkups because it was so miserably concerning. Patient received this January vaccine as it was 3 months from the "start" of when she had Covid symptoms in October2022. Based on her case, she should have waited to receive this booster however as Covid most likely was still in her system so the doubled up antibodies with the vaccine really messed with her system.; Sender's Comments: Linked Report(s) : US-PFIZER INC-202300101239 Same reporter/patient, different event;
