Vaccine: COVID19
Symptoms: Injection site mass, Muscle spasms, Myositis, Pain, Pain in extremity
Clinical narrative: I was given the 2nd injection, waited the 20 minutes, with no reaction. At that time, I was going to physical therapy because I slipped in mud and hurt my sciatica. When they had me doing stretching, I told the therapist I couldn't stretch out with my left arm and he said that it's because of the injection. 2 weeks passed and it was still hurting to the point it was uncomfortable, and my range of motion was horrible. I had to go back to the doctor for my 6-week check up for my leg, which was okay, but my arm I couldn't move. I went to ortho and they did x-rays and a CT scan or ultrasound and I was diagnosed with deltoid myositis. There was nothing they could do and he told me I could put lidocaine and numb it. I've been doing exercise with it and it feels like there's a lump near injection site between shoulder and elbow. He told me if he gave me steroid shot it would only make it worse. I've also noticed shortness of breath and leg cramps and I've never had that before. Shortness of breath started after the first shot but it went away, and it happened again last night with the leg cramps and feels like a stabbing pain in my leg and lasts for a few seconds and then goes away. I feel like my heart is fluttering a little, but it may be COVID related. It's alleviated, and the only thing that has helped is hemp cream. March 2021 I also seen internist and he told me to get a massage gun and try to use that to see if it breaks it up. Possibly had COVID late 2019.

Clinical narrative: Pt died in hospital on 3/9/22. He developed recurrent fever and new infiltrates in the left lung consistent with pneumonia that ultimately cultured positive for multidrug resistant pseudomonas.  He was treated with meropenem with improvement in fevers and oxygenation.  He completed a 10 day course of meropenem.  After completion, he was making clinical progress but developed recurrent concerns for sepsis with fever and hypotension.  Initial blood cultures were negative.  Antibiotics were restarted with Merrem, vancomycin and tobramycin.  On the second day after onset of sepsis, oxygenation became difficult.  CXR confirmed new and worsening infiltrates in the left lung.  His oxygenation could not be improved despite aggressive ventilator adjustments and sedation.  He was fully anticoagulated for possible PE.  Plans were made for CT of the chest but he developed a pulseless cardiac arrest.  He failed to respond to ACLS.
