Clinical narrative: moderna covid-19 vaccine EUA     At approximately 3 AM on the sunday morning following my second dose of the vaccine the prior Friday afternoon, I woke up vomiting.  This continued for the next 15 hours.  Every thirty minutes to an hour I would throw up or dry heave over and over again.  On three occasions I had diarrhea as well.  The worst was the headache that was similar to a migraine and would not go away.  Anything I tried to eat or drink came back up immediately.  On Monday afternoon I still could not eat or drink without my stomach clenching painfully and the headache was still painful.  I went to my doctor and they gave me two bags of IV fluid for dehydration.  I shook during the entire 2nd bag of fluids, and when I got home continued to shake for several hours despite 9 blankets on top of me.  Around 9 that night I took tylenol for the aching muscles and a benedryl to help me sleep.  I slept well but woke up to a slight fever of 99.5 degrees this morning, and am coughing up thick yellow phlem.  My neck and back are still sore from all the shaking last night.  If I am not better by this afternoon I will have to see if someone can drive me back to the doctor for antibiotics.

Symptoms: Allergy test, Arthralgia, Arthritis, Blood test, Formication
Clinical narrative: I noticed a rash on my back and the back of my scalp. It itched really bad, to the point where it would have to bleed to stop itching. I went to a Dermatologist and was given Prednisone and topical steroid creams. I used that and the rash and itching went away. Two days after stopping it came back with a vengeance. I went to an Allergist and he put me on an elimination diet and put me back on Prednisone for 3 months. I was also put on Hydroxyzine (two tablets daily, but now down to once daily) for the allergic reaction and Cimetidine and was on that four times per day, but I'm down to twice daily now. I also take Xyzal daily. The Prednisone started at 5mg 2x four times a day and I was weaned off of it over time. I still have moments where I feel that bugs are crawling on my back and scalp, but I deal with it until it goes away. During the elimination diet, I was able to slowly add items back to my diet one by one. There weren't any reactions when adding them back. Since June, I started experiencing arthritic pain on the top of my right foot. This pain lasted for about 2-3 weeks. Shortly after that, I started to have swelling and pain in my left hand. I noticed that my fingers were starting to cross over each other. I went to my Internist and he performed a rheumatoid test to rule out that type of arthritis. I do not have Rheumatoid Arthritis. I have noticed that I was starting to have body aches and joint pain. I am starting to feel a little better now after exercise.

Symptoms: Blood test, Chest X-ray, Chest discomfort, Dizziness, Electrocardiogram
Clinical narrative: About a week after the 2nd dose, I started feeling like my heartbeat was racing. I ignored it at first. I started to feel dizzy. I was getting body aches and pains. I finally made an appt 2 weeks later at our urgent care center. They told me that my blood pressure was higher laying down than when I was sitting up. They told me to go to the ER. They did blood work, EKG, and a chest x-ray. I was sent home on prescribed lisinopril. Then I went to primary care. Now she has sent me for blood work that I just had done and an echocardiogram because I am still feeling chest discomfort. My right leg is also hurting. It's a dull pain in my lower right leg and it's been there for 3 days. I am waiting to get my echocardiogram done. My appointment is for December 7th. For right now, I have to deal with all my symptoms. I was diagnosed with hypertension and put on medication. I have never had this before. I am still waiting on my blood test results. It all of a sudden happened right after I got my vaccine. It's hard for me to walk because I feel like someone is sitting on my chest and my leg is still hurting.
