Additional information: After the dose 2, The patient had a typical reaction the following day and felt better for two days after that. However, by Sun, she couldn't eat and developed brain zaps/vertigo like feeling/sensory disturbances which lasted for 5 days. During that time she also started losing the ability to fall asleep or stay asleep. (I also had GI problems for about 3-4 weeks - she never had GI problems, ever). Her brain felt like it was on fire and was so hyper aroused. she had NEVER experienced anything like it, she slept like a baby her whole life until this second vaccine. The patient saw pcp three times in March as well as the chief of sleep neurology at withheld in withheld in May and a sleep psychologist in May. All determined these side effects to be due to vaccine. The hyper arousal was so severe and she missed quite a bit of work due to feeling horrifically sick and exhausted. That has been a traumatizing situation for her. . Additionally she had severe arm pain lasting several days with major limitation of arm movement, temporary paresthesia (feeling of weakness and warmth in hands and arms for several weeks) and significantly diminished menstrual cycle immediately following vaccine #2. Her menstrual cycle was now less than half of what is was previously, it is been about 8 cycles since the shot. Unrelated to hormones or auto-immune as ruled out by my GYN via extensive bloodwork. She was a fit and healthy 42-year-old with zero co-morbid conditions, 5.2 inch and 118 pounds.  The lot number for bnt162b2 was not provided and will be requested during follow up.
