The patient did not have relevant medical history. The concomitant medications were not reported. Historical vaccine included Swine Flu Vaccine on an unknown date for Immunization and experienced vomiting. It was stated that she wants to know what was the typical medications that you should take from your doctor when you were having side effects from the Pfizer COVID vaccine and also stated she wants to know if her doctor was giving her the right medication and what was the protocol for her side effects. It was reported that she had been having joint pain and muscle pain and a lot of other thing but some things have went away but those were the main issues she has right now. Caller stated she had pains in the muscles above knees on the thigh on both legs and arm from elbow to shoulders they hurt really bad a lot of the times. Caller stated sometimes they both hurt. Caller stated her legs started hurting the last month or so. Caller stated she received the first dose of the vaccine on 30Jun2021 and the second dose on 22Jul2021. It was stated she went to her family doctor, in the beginning she was having hearing problems and the right-side face was swollen and woke up one morning and it was swollen and up and she had a red streak down that cheek and the doctor gave her an antibiotic and that cleared it up. Caller stated she thinks that it got into the lymph nodes by the ears but she thinks the phlegm and stuff was in her throat and stuff and she doesn't know maybe she was swallowing it because her stomach was hurting but then when she decided to maybe start spiting it out instead of swallowing then maybe she won't get a stomach ache then that helped. Caller stated the antibiotic that she was given it cleared up the swelling in her cheek from side of her face and took the red streak away and she just continued to have horrible taste in her mouth and the phlegm was smelly and it seemed to be clear it wasn't like yellow or green such as when you have the flu and spit it out but it was clear stuff and it was nasty tasting. Caller stated she started rinsing with Listerine a couple times a day and it would take it away but it seemed that it would slide down her throat but she didn't want to swallow the Listerine because she knows that it had stuff in it that can make you sick. Caller stated it doesn't seem like when he gives her the antibiotic that it takes everything away. Caller stated she would wake up and have a reddish tint around eyelids and eye lashes then it goes away within an hour and she figures that it was whatever that infection was causing the problem. Caller stated she feels that some of this stuff has something to do with getting older and she does have arthritis but it was like intensified stuff the aches and pains that she had before were like now really major the joint pain problems and stuff. Caller stated after the first shot on the way home, she felt like she was going to puke, but she didn't, she was just really nauseous. when she got home, her left arm was hurting, she didn't have where the arm was red, it was just hurting and pretty painful. As time went on, she had severe headaches, she could hardly walk, she was weak, had fatigue and wanted to sleep all the time. Caller stated it had never gotten better but rather had gotten worse. She also has memory problems, weakness and she can hardly walk to the bathroom, her lymph nodes on the left side were swollen and she had a red streak down the middle of her cheek that was an inch wide by 3 inches long. Caller stated whatever he gave her, she thinks it was an antibiotic, took the swelling down and the redness went away. She also told him she had a horrible phlegm in her throat that was terrible tasting, the doctor thought it may be an infection, so he gave her the antibiotic and it seemed to take it away, but she had the horrible phlegm so for a third time he gave her some antibiotic, he thought it may be a thrush infection. Caller stated she has had the antibiotic 3 times in a row now 2 weeks a part and it had taken it pretty much away. It was also reported that the headaches weren't as bad as they were, at first, they were really excruciating, Caller states her eyes hurt and she had a red ring around her eyes. Caller stated after about an hour it was gone, caller states she had that when she had the swelling on the right side, it felt like her hearing was gone but it is not as bad as it was, the lymph nodes on that side were messed up, memory problems. It was reported that she was hesitant about taking the vaccine, she doesn't usually take a lot of medicine. Caller stated even with the Ibuprofen she puts it in a splitter thing because she had more problems with it if she takes more. Caller stated she enquired before her first shot and told them that she had some reactions to different medications so she doesn't know how it would be, but they assured her it would be mild and it wasn't. Caller stated if she took that muscle relaxer, all it does make her sleep for 24 hours, so she went to half a pill and that makes her sleep for 12 hours. It was reported she would be taking the booster in January. Caller stated the medication was Cyclobenzapr 5mg, she took 10mg before, but she cut it down because when she cut a 10mg in 2 they were crushing. Caller stated she takes Ibuprofen because it seems to work better than the muscle relaxer, she only takes it every 3 days because she did not want to take medicine. Caller stated she took it when she feels like it. Caller stated the Ibuprofen seems to help, but she can't take it during the day because it makes her sleep too much. Caller stated she walks to her car and goes to where she needs to go, she goes to the pick up or drive thru or takes her kids with her.
