This consumer reported for an 82-year-old male patient (husband)  received the second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot EN6206) on 10Mar2021 at single dose for COVID-19 immunisation (82-year-old at vaccination). Relevant history included Neuropathy (Diagnosed over 10 years ago), lewy body Parkinson's (Diagnosed about 5 years ago), Open heart surgery (Over 10 years ago).  Relevant concomitant drugs included  Gabapentin for Neuropathy peripheral, Allopurinol for Gout, Modafinil CCL, Donepezil for Parkinson's disease, Carbidopa for Parkinson's disease, atorvastatin, 'tamiflosin' and potassium cloride 40. The patient previously the first dose of BNT162B2 (lot EN 6200) for COVID-19 immunisation on 17Feb2021. The events happened after the second dose of the vaccine. At that time the patient was able to get in the truck. The patient started walking very very slow that afternoon on 10Mar2021 and the next couple of days. The patient fell on 10Mar2021, 18Mar2021, 19Mar2021, 20Mar2021, 02May2021, and 02Jun2021. The patient lost the use of his legs completely. The patient was bedridden for 2 weeks. The patient had to get a hospital bed and lost a lot of his ability to get around. Prior to the vaccine, the patient was able to take a shower with an aid, walk to the truck and get in it, walk with a walker, walk 5 laps in his home with a walker per physical therapy, walk outside in the neighborhood for 30-40 minutes with his walker, could go to a restaurant and could sleep in a normal bed. After receiving the vaccine the patient's movements became slower the second and third day. The patient had one shower and sat down and couldn't get up so the aid had to take off her clothes and get him up and out. The patient was completely bedridden by day 6 and 7. The patient cannot enter their truck. They had to install a ramp from the kitchen into the garage for $2600. Since the patient couldn't get up, can't walk, and is bedridden he had to get a hospital bed. Medicare demands before you get a hospital bed and everything the doctor has to see the patient face to face. The patient didn't break anything, he has just lost the use of his legs. On 18Mar2021 they got the patient a  hospital bed for $175 a month plus a $35 service fee. On 01Mar2021 a doctor came to the house and saw the patient and put it into Medicare. On 04Apr2021 a ramp was installed. The patient uses cab and a  wheelchair at their expense. The filling fell out of the patient's tooth and he had to go to the dentist. They purchased a new bed mattress. They had to purchase an 18 inch wide wheelchair because the other one didn't fit in their house. Medicare is paying for physical therapy 2 days a week and they pay out of pocket $65 on Fridays. They pay an aid out of pocket 7 days a week. The caller called their regular doctor to see if he could get them a hospital bed. The caller didn't want to take the patient to the hospital because of COVID. The caller contacted the patient's ### for physical therapy and the doctor said he couldn't do it. The patient is now being seen at the ####. Since everyone is a #####, no one knows anything about this. The caller thinks the vaccine must hit the patient's nervous system. The patient's legs just give way. The patient can walk the length of the hospital bed to his lift chair. The patient had sores on his rear end and heels so they decided to put him back in his lift chair. The aids clean the patient in the morning then he eats, watches TV, the caller puts him in the lift chair where his feet are not touching anything. The patient's feet were healed last week (as reported). The patient has cuts on his left arm from his fall on 02Jun2021. The patient was so weak he had to start using a wheelchair instead of a walker, just of a couple days later.  The caller will never have the patient get another shot because she doesn't want anything to happen to the patient. The patient is just quiet now and not sociable and stays quiet because of this. The patient has had blood work twice and a chest x-ray. The patient's blood pressure was always high.  The patient was never admitted to the hospital as a patient for any of this. The outcome of events The patient lost the use of his legs completely, walking very very slow  was not resolved, the outcome of events Fell, Loss of mobility was resolving. The outcome of other events was unknown.
