Clinical narrative: Loose stool; numbness in her legs; slight angina in her upper abdomen/she still had some heart pain/pain around her heart; she was tired; Stomach ache/stomach pain that was moving around; some pain under her breast bone; high blood pressure; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 68-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE, formulation: solution for injection, Lot number EN5318), via an unspecified route of administration on 30Jan2021 (68-year-old at vaccination) as Dose 1, Single for Covid-19 immunization. The patient's medical history and concurrent conditions included, had abdominal stomach pain, weird blood pressure was high, cramping, nauseated, chills, shaking, all from Dec2020 to an un-known date and some off and on numbness of her face, she was born with an irregular heartbeat, Rash, heart pounding, Memory issue from unspecified date. However back in Dec2020 she was starting to have not really bad heart pounding but an occasional heart pounding to where she would make a note of it, but she was not worried about that. Also, this may or may not have an effect, but she had a bat land on her in the summer and she took a rabies shot, it was a strong vaccine, maybe that had something to do with this (Lot number, Expiry date were not provided). She stated well she needed to check her blood pressure log because she had a weird Dec2020. In Dec2020 she was having abdominal stomach pain, blood pressure was high, cramping and in early Dec2020 she was nauseated with chills and shaking. This all kind of started when she had an MRI, it was not 2 weeks before, but this all kind of started a pattern of weird health issues though Dec2020 and Jan2021. She had the MRI and got a rash, weirdly enough it was on her abdomen. Then she started having some heart pounding then, but it was not as bad as it was with her COVID vaccine, but she did make a note of it. She had an endoscopy because her doctor thought that maybe it was worse than just a colon impaction which was what it turned out to be. She went to see a neurologist on 22Jan2021, and the neurologist tapped on the side of her head as she was checking for things. She had gone to her with memory issues before and for other things that have happened. she had car accident years back and had some off and on numbness of her face since then, this was earlier to this time, but when the neurologist tapped on her head it kind of triggered that and also, she had numbness in her legs and the bottoms of her feet following that. She made note also of having heart palpitations. Then in Jan2021 she had her 1st COVID vaccine, 30Jan2021. Now this was important she thought, she used to take her blood pressure every day but for the past few years she hasn't. She asked a doctor or a pharmacist about this and her blood pressure has never been really bad, but she asked if it was okay for her to take only half of her blood pressure medication and whoever she had asked said yes. When she later told her cardiologist, he said that she should had never done that. The morning before she had went to get her first COVID vaccine she had a high blood pressure and so she took half of her Bystolic, so that would had been 5 mg, and she didn't have any side effects except she did have some pain under her breast bone. She added that she doesn't know if that was before or after the COVID vaccine, maybe it was before the COVID vaccine. She made note also of having heart palpitations. It was unknown if the patient received concomitant medications. She had some kind of weird things going on, too she was wondering if maybe she just had these all even before she got the 1st COVID vaccine, now that she was thought in retrospect. Then on 02Feb2021 she still had pain around her heart, she was tired, had stomach aches, loose stools and she still had some heart pain and her stomach hurt on that Wednesday and Thursday. Then that continued for the next few days, the tiredness did, and she was still having the stomach pain and numbness in her legs, that was around 07Feb2021 and then on 12Feb2021 she noted that she was having stomach pain that was moving around and she had fatigue. On 25Feb2021 she noted slight angina in her upper abdomen. She said that she had to get like 5 to 6 shots and waited in the emergency room and only their emergency room was giving them, and she had to wait like 6 hours during COVID. The outcome of the events was unknown.  No follow up attempts are possible; information about lot/batch number cannot be obtained. No further information is expected.
