Clinical course:Provided by transferring agent, caller reporting, last week, received Pfizer Covid vaccine and flu shot at same time, together, developed symptoms. When clarifying details provided by transferring agent with caller, she states, she had after effects, wouldn't know if she would call it symptoms.Really thinks, Pfizer should strongly recommend against people getting both vaccines at once. Of course, they would make much less money that way. Is more concerned about how she felt after having both vaccines together. Finally did get Covid in Oct. Was a piece of cake, never had to take medicine, or do anything. Just took hot showers, coughing so much, felt like she was on vacation. Clearly, couldn't go anywhere or do anything much. Compared to that, was more bothered by having flu shot and Pfizer Covid vaccine at same time. Only reason she ever combined them was that, her son had symptoms, didn't know whether it was flu or Covid. Was the firs time he had either. Caller had cataract surgery scheduled for Jan2024, thought, she didn't want to catch anything. Went to pharmacy, got both, was piece of cake. Was supposed to go to memorial service the following day, they said it would be no problem. they said, she might have aches and pains. She could not go, missed memorial service of a dear fiend. Was so lousy, continued to have odd symptoms, in arm mostly. Was scared, it was off and on. Not enough to go to emergency room or anything. Was not a 10 or anything. Just saying, is 72 years old, just saw doctor yesterday, is in great shape. Is not on medication, is not bad risk or anything. Does not have diabetes or blood pressure issues, or trouble like that. Just feels like other people should be told, encouraged, to not get both at same time. When caller asked to complete report, further documenting her experiences mentioned, she sates, she is not trying to file official complaint, will save for that for if she stops breathing. Does not know, whether this was even a symptom but, with the earlier vaccines, had kind of reactive skin, something felt like little raised places in skin. Wasn't even near vaccination site, is probably not relevant. This was from previous Pfizer vaccinations, what she has always gotten. Wondered if that was related to the vaccination. It wasn't any problem, didn't itch or burn, didn't bother her.  Clarified, the little raised pieces, occurred with precious Pfizer Covid vaccinations and not most recent Pfizer Covid vaccination. Does not feel this was related to vaccine, was just wondering, in her head. Caller declines to complete report. Was sometimes a little scared, never got scared during Covid, thought this was worse.
