Clinical narrative: Covid-19 vaccine administrations (Moderna) 3/23/21 lot# 013A21A 4/20/21 lot# 013A21A  Admission to Hospital (5/2/21 ? 5/10/21) for hypertension and acute on chronic back pain requiring ICU admission, hyponatremia thought to be due to SIADH. CT of abdomen done at hospital noting no significant lumbar abnormalities and a plain film of her lumbar spine with no obvious compression fracture. Outside hospital notes do not further outline why she could no longer ambulate. Brain MRI done and negative during that admission. Discharged to a rehab facility for ongoing weakness.  On 5/13/21, patient?s son requested admission to hospital for further evaluation. She states that she feels confused and her legs are very heavy and she can barely move them.  Notably she lives alone in her own home, used to drive, did not use any assistive device to walk, and paid her own bills until 2 weeks ago. The symptoms did occur approximately a week after receiving her last Covid vaccine. Pt also notes around April 1, 2021 having taken an engorged deer tick off her head. 5/14/21 Lyme serology IgM & IgG = negative. Neurology was consulted. She had an MRI of her thoracic and lumbar spine, as well as an LP. She had had an MRI brain at a hospital. Her MRIs did not reveal a source of her weakness and pain. Her CSF revealed albuminocytologic dissociation. Given this finding and the constellation of symptoms and LP findings, it was thought she had Guillain Barre Syndrome, presumably due to her COVID vaccine. She was given IVIG for 5 days. She improved with this.    As above, she had a recent admission for hyponatremia and hypertensive urgency. Here, her blood pressure was somewhat labile, but at times was low. She was started back on amlodipine and carvedilol, but at much lower doses with plan for ongoing monitoring. In terms of her hyponatremia, her salt tabs were stopped, and eventually her fluid restriction was able to be lifted. Her sodium was 136 at discharge.

Symptoms: Body temperature increased, Breast pain, Chest discomfort, Dyskinesia, Hypoaesthesia oral
Clinical narrative: After receiving dose, pt experienced Vasovagal response which she never had before when receiving a shot.  When they woke her she had a lot of jerky arm movement.  About half an hour to 1hr after injection she said she had an odd taste in her mouth and her tongue was numb.  Her chest felt tight but was not wheezing.  About an hour later when she was home (~6pm) gave her "click it albuterol" and it relieved the tightness in the chest.  She had pain in her left breast area.  Around 6:30pm she continued to comment about her tongue being numb and pain in her breasts.  She fell asleep right away and the next afternoon around 1pm she had a temperature of 99F.  After motrin the temperature went back to normal and she felt better.  No further chest tightness after that and she is feeling normal.

Symptoms: Arthralgia, Bone pain, Pain in extremity
Clinical narrative: Fever with distinct bone pain. A year earlier (Jan 2020) I was a bone marrow donor that required a heavy course of Filgrastim in preparation for the donation. As expected, the Filgrastim made me feel sick with a lot of bone soreness and pain, especially in my hips and legs. It lasted a few days after the donation and then was gone. Upon getting my second shot of the Moderna vaccine, the second day brought back the exactly soreness/pain that I felt under the filgrastim with distinct bone pain, especially in my legs/hips.

May 21, 2021 (Fri) injection site right arm more sore and could not turn my head to the right as my right neck (lymph nodes) were all swollen. Had chills, headache, fatigued and threw up after eating light breakfast. I iced and took Advil. PM/Bedtime-could not get deep breaths through nose breathing/had to mouth breath-hardly slept. May 22, 2021 (Sat) called emergency room and Pharmacist (primary Pharmacist still on vacation) was told to switch to HEAT pad on my neck, take Advil. Right arm injection site, up the arm, across collar bone, up the right neck to ear lobe all swollen and painful since Friday-hardly any change.  May 23, 2021 (Sun) so tired from not sleeping well (could not lay on right side since the shot) and slept mostly all day.  May 24, 2021 (Mon) feel a little better but neck is still swollen and sore. 50% motion back to turn my head to the right. Breathing better when laying down through my nose as well.  I would like to talk with a Doctor at the CDC as I do not have a Primary Doctor, and was just referred to one, but cannot schedule to see him until mid June. I am nervous if the 1st Moderna shot is causing internal swelling, bleeding, etc. ? And I am not planning on getting a 2nd Moderna shot after this severe reaction caused by the 1st shot.   I am healthy, never take drugs, get flu shots, etc. and my body felt like it was fighting a battle...and I am not 100% myself. I want to know WHEN my neck will heal, WHEN my motion will be back to 100%  as it is making driving challenging, and what next steps you recommend.  Please advise.

Symptoms: Tremor, Vertigo
Clinical narrative: The first symptoms were noticed Sunday at around 3 am. I woke up with violent shaking.  I had an upset stomach and nausea. The worst of all is I couldn't concentrate. This caused anxiety.  I felt like I was spinning and couldn't make it stop.  I've had 3 weeks of hell. It's gotten so bad that I was not even understanding tasks like driving. I didn't even understand why I was driving but felt like I had to do something to make the feelings subside.

Symptoms: Balance disorder, Dizziness, Ear pain, Full blood count normal, Headache
Clinical narrative: Pain (sometimes intense) in back of skull/neck, ear pain (intermittent), disequilibrium or dizziness (intermittent), feeling unsteady at times, neck cracks and pops a lot.  This comes and goes.  I have to take ibuprofen 600 mg every 4-6 hours.  Went to chiropractor, helped neck somewhat.  Went for vacation (May 1, 2021) and symptoms went way on day 2 on vacation (there for 14 days and did drink alcohol while there, maybe numbed it ?), got back home on a Saturday (May 15, 2021) and symptoms started again on Sunday (after plane ride?), have had symptoms on and off, but mostly on ever since (today is May 24, 2021).  This affects my activities of daily living.  I worry about encephalitis (?).  I had been in good health before.  I do have Epstein-Barr and Factor V Leiden (per blood tests years ago).   I did go to my doctor April 26, 2021 ( I believe) and she did neuro testing (Romberg and finger-to-nose a little off, but everything else fine).  She gave me meloxicam for the pain in neck, helped a little, but so does ibuprofen.  So I guess you could say this has been going on for almost a month now (besides the time on vacation when I felt better).  I am getting a craniosacral massage tomorrow, but think I will also call my doctor again.
