Clinical narrative: convulsions; fainting episodes/fainting spells; inflammation to her nervous system resulted from that massive immunological response; Tourette's; sore throat; stomach pain; confusion (wandering off and getting lost in a winter storm); loss of taste; lost use of her arm she got the shot in for a long time; tics; catatonic episodes; selective mutism; fatigue; mild fever; nausea; became so ill she couldn't leave bed; This is a spontaneous report received from a contactable reporter(s) (Consumer or other non HCP). The reporter is the patient.  A 13-year-old female patient (not pregnant) received BNT162b2 (BNT162B2), on 12Oct2021 as dose 2, single (Lot number: FE3590) at the age of 13 years, in right arm for covid-19 immunisation. The patient's relevant medical history included: "Migraines" (unspecified if ongoing); "Insomnia" (unspecified if ongoing); "Asthma" (unspecified if ongoing); "Allergies" (unspecified if ongoing); "known allergies: Peanut" (unspecified if ongoing); "known allergies: egg" (unspecified if ongoing); "known allergies: other nuts" (unspecified if ongoing); "known allergies: latex" (unspecified if ongoing). The patient took concomitant medications. Past drug history included: Amoxicillin, reaction(s): "known allergies: Amoxicillin". Vaccination history included: BNT162b2 (Dose Number: 1, Single, Batch/Lot No: FF2587, Location of injection: Arm Left), administration date: 21Sep2021, when the patient was 13-year-old, for COVID-19 immunization. The following information was reported: TOURETTE'S DISORDER (disability, medically significant) with onset 12Oct2021, outcome "not recovered", described as "Tourette's"; MALAISE (disability) with onset 12Oct2021, outcome "not recovered", described as "became so ill she couldn't leave bed"; CATATONIA (disability) with onset 12Oct2021, outcome "not recovered", described as "catatonic episodes"; CONFUSIONAL STATE (disability) with onset 12Oct2021, outcome "not recovered", described as "confusion (wandering off and getting lost in a winter storm)"; SEIZURE (disability, medically significant) with onset 12Oct2021, outcome "not recovered", described as "convulsions"; SYNCOPE (disability, medically significant) with onset 12Oct2021, outcome "not recovered", described as "fainting episodes/fainting spells"; FATIGUE (disability) with onset 12Oct2021, outcome "not recovered"; CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM INFLAMMATION (disability, medically significant) with onset 12Oct2021, outcome "not recovered", described as "inflammation to her nervous system resulted from that massive immunological response"; AGEUSIA (disability) with onset 12Oct2021, outcome "not recovered", described as "loss of taste"; MUSCULOSKELETAL DISORDER (disability) with onset 12Oct2021, outcome "not recovered", described as "lost use of her arm she got the shot in for a long time"; PYREXIA (disability) with onset 12Oct2021, outcome "not recovered", described as "mild fever"; NAUSEA (disability) with onset 12Oct2021, outcome "not recovered"; SELECTIVE MUTISM (disability) with onset 12Oct2021, outcome "not recovered"; OROPHARYNGEAL PAIN (disability) with onset 12Oct2021, outcome "not recovered", described as "sore throat"; ABDOMINAL PAIN UPPER (disability) with onset 12Oct2021, outcome "not recovered", described as "stomach pain"; TIC (disability) with onset 12Oct2021, outcome "not recovered", described as "tics". The events "convulsions", "fainting episodes/fainting spells", "inflammation to her nervous system resulted from that massive immunological response", "tourette's", "became so ill she couldn't leave bed", "sore throat", "stomach pain", "nausea", "confusion (wandering off and getting lost in a winter storm)", "fatigue", "mild fever", "loss of taste", "lost use of her arm she got the shot in for a long time", "tics", "catatonic episodes" and "selective mutism" required physician office visit and emergency room visit. The patient underwent the following laboratory tests and procedures: Body temperature: (unspecified date) mild; Nasopharyngeal swab: (unspecified date) Negative; (15Oct2021) Negative; SARS-CoV-2 antibody test: (unspecified date) She has more Covid antibodies than anyone else. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of seizure, syncope, central nervous system inflammation, tourette's disorder, malaise, oropharyngeal pain, abdominal pain upper, nausea, confusional state, fatigue, pyrexia, ageusia, musculoskeletal disorder, tic, catatonia, selective mutism. Clinical course: The patient did not receive  any other vaccine in last four weeks at the time of report. The patient received unspecified multiviatamin in two weeks as of reporting. It was reported that first, hours after the vaccine she became so ill she could not leave bed (sore throat, stomach pain, nausea, confusion, fatigue, mild fever, loss of taste) but she tested negative twice for Covid. She lost use of her arm she got the shot in for a long time and had to do physical therapy for months. She had ER visits for tics and convulsions, confusion (wandering off and getting lost in a winter storm), and fainting episodes. Not too long after the vaccine injury, they sent her to a specialist who checked her blood for Covid antibodies. He literally said "She has more Covid antibodies than anyone else." The neurologist believes that inflammation to her nervous system resulted from that massive immunological response to the vaccine. The tics have now settled into a diagnosis of Tourette's, and she's also been diagnosed now with catatonic episodes/fainting spells and selective mutism. She's finally getting in to be seen by the experts at the Clinic in a month.
