Relevant laboratory tests and procedures are available in the appropriate section. Therapeutic measures were not taken as a result of vaccination site erythema, vaccination site pain, vaccination site swelling, irritability. Additional information: The patient's all previous doses of Covid vaccine were all Pfizer; thought in first year, 2020, had 2 or 3 shots, then after that, 1 every year, or maybe 2, could not remember- she had flu shot and Covid shot real close together, 2 to 3 years ago that happened, still trying to do her exercises every day so that shoulder does not lock up again. She did not want that to go back to where it was, was awful, made it through. The patient called regarding Pfizer Covid vaccine booster; she had the booster shot, vaccine shot, Monday (04Dec2023). NDC number of Comirnaty: 00069-2392-10. Then, was like, Tuesday or a Wednesday, there was red ring around site, not a rash, but red ring, site was swollen. She has that red ring, about, probably 2 and a half to 3 inches in diameter. The red ring around site, swollen: got shot Monday, 04Dec2023, then noticed it late Tuesday, 05Dec2023, the red ring which has not gotten any worse. The red ring was on right upper arm. She could not remember when red ring happened before or if it was with Covid vaccine, or what it was from. Shoulder site still hurts quite a bit, no, it really didn't; thought it was getting better. Swelling was going down, getting better a little bit each day. Also on Monday, which was out of character, she was very cranky. Her dog was sick too, might have been cranky because of dog being sick. Being very cranky was not normal for her. She did not know if anyone else has had complaint about it making them very cranky. It could have just been because her dog was very sick. Treatment was noted as no. Investigations was noted as no. She was wondering if Pfizer Covid vaccine booster has anything to do with eggs or if there was any part of egg that was used in that process. Also, she would like to know if there was, if there would be a Pfizer Covid booster without eggs, without using eggs. Gluten and eggs really made her sick. There was this little thing they use, was also allergic to latex, a little thing they put over the where they are going to put needle. She did not know what it was, it might have been plastic on outside. There was like, some fabric or something, that, if there was any kind of latex or anything, could go into needle site. That could be causing it and not the Pfizer vaccine. She was really allergic to latex. Family medical history noted that both her parents, passed, sister didn't have allergic reactions she did. Her mother had some allergic allergies, one of them was allergic to Novocain. Her mother couldn't have Novocain to have dental work done.
