Clinical narrative: About 5 minutes after the vaccine, my heart started feeling like it was pounding out of my chest. I looked at my exercise watch and my heart rate jumped all the way to about 145-150. It was pounding hard. I did some deep breathing and thought I was fine. They had me stay around for about 30 minutes. 15 minutes in, I started feeling poorly. I started having a tight chest and my throat kind of hurt. It felt very tight. I kind of just sat around for 10 more minutes. My blood sugar got up to the 300s. I then left and went to work and I realized something wasn't completely right. I was walking around at work and my heart rate was still jumping up to 150. About 6 or 7 hours later, I remember feeling extremely fatigued like someone just drained everything out of me. I felt out of it and a little dizzy. When I got home, I remember sitting on the couch and I was just feeling really sick. My whole body hurt. My heart rate was still up. My blood sugar dipped drastically around 40 points. It kept dropping. When I was home, I got a horrible migraine. That's when I felt something weird going on in my face. I didn't fully recognize it. I started having complete shivers and strong fatigue. The fatigue was so bad that I was passing out. I kept falling asleep. I had body aches and shivers, but no fever. I took some Tylenol and went to bed. I didn't get much sleep because I was waking up every other hour with my heart racing. It would be in the 130s. My body just felt completely drained. It was very painful. I realized something weird was going on with the left side of my face. It was pins and needles. I was getting a headache that started on my left side. I felt kind of numbness. I took the next day off work. On Friday, I woke up and my whole left side of my face still felt completely numb. I looked in the mirror and it was a little droopy. I felt like I was constantly frowning on one side of my face. On Saturday or Sunday, I felt like someone was jabbing a pencil in my temple on the left side of my face. It was completely painful to the point that I dropped down in pain.  I couldn't really speak. I felt like I was speaking gibberish. It only lasted for a minute. I called my telehealth dr. He said I should be fine but that he doesn't really know anything. He didn't think it was that bad. That was concerning to me. I told myself that maybe it will get better. A week later, the facial pain was still there. I was still getting temple pain. It was coming on and off. I decided to call my 2nd doctor and they stated that they thought it was a mild case of bells palsy. I thought that it would kind of go away. However, now, 6 months later, I still have it. It is constant. The pain comes and goes. I constantly feel one side that feels heavier than the other. The left side of my face feels heavier than the right side. I realized that if I had high pain or anything, it would start on my left side and be worse on my left side. It has something to do with the nerves on the left side of my face. I told my doctor about it. My asthma and my allergies also got worse. I had to go on a prescription inhaler. I still sometimes get that tight feeling in my chest. The left side of my face is still numb and heavy. Every once in awhile I get that severe pins and needles pain. Every once in a while it feels like I'm frowning on that side of my face. I went to see my PCP a couple months afterwards. He prescribed me some allergy medicine and my inhaler. I'm thinking about seeing a neurologist.
