A year later she was still having hoarse voice and dry itchy throat, feeling dizzy and for her was lightheaded, ringing in her ears, head feels stuffy, feeling like she could not regulate heat well, and fatigue. Reporter said kind of persisting non specific symptoms and a not true allergic reaction and timing was concerning and the patient has not gone forward with any other COVID vaccines or other vaccines since then. she checked a bunch of labs that were unrevealing and recommended her to see Ear Nose Throat for her chronic hoarseness and she was declining before. patient tried to call Pfizer and felt like there is something Pfizer could tell a medical professional. She did not and said she thought was an odd case and not like a thing. Reporter told her she would call. Reporter said to send her to the other department and see if recommend any test when asked to complete report.   The lot number for the BNT162b2 was not provided and will be requested during follow up. Sender's Comments: Based on the available information in the case, the causal association between the event's 'pruritus', 'throat irritation', 'dysphonia' and the suspect drug BNT162B2 cannot be excluded.
