Clinical narrative: they go a little higher; the injection site being really sore; SIRVA; This is a spontaneous report received from a Consumer or other non HCP, Program ID:.  A 69-year-old female patient received BNT162b2 omi xbb.1.5 (COMIRNATY (2023-2024 FORMULA)), on 15Nov2023 as dose 1, single (Batch/Lot number: unknown) at the age of 69 years, in right arm for covid-19 immunisation. The patient had no relevant medical history. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. The following information was reported: SHOULDER INJURY RELATED TO VACCINE ADMINISTRATION (non-serious) with onset 15Nov2023, outcome "unknown", described as "SIRVA"; VACCINATION SITE PAIN (non-serious) with onset 15Nov2023, outcome "unknown", described as "the injection site being really sore"; PRODUCT ADMINISTERED AT INAPPROPRIATE SITE (non-serious) with onset 15Nov2023, outcome "unknown", described as "they go a little higher". The events "the injection site being really sore" and "sirva" required physician office visit. Relevant laboratory tests and procedures are available in the appropriate section. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of vaccination site pain, shoulder injury related to vaccine administration.  Additional information: the patient was reporting an adverse event she experienced after she had the Pfizer covid vaccine and she cannot really move her hands and has constant pain in her shoulder down to her whole arm. She stated that it is hard to move her arm for her whole arm into any kind of particular position. The reported events began right at 15Nov2023 and she clarified that she can move her hands and it started with the injection site being really sore and then started noticing it in her whole shoulder that she is having sharp pain for the whole arm to the wrist and into her hands but not her fingers and her fingers are not affected from it and they said it could be around a nerve; her daughter works in ortho and said they get cases like that once in a while that cause tendonitis into rotator cuff things, so it is one of the two or a coincidence. She mentioned that have cases like this that cause tendonitis; states it can be any vaccine where they go too high or too low and the pharmacy she went to they mentioned they go a little higher.  This can happen and thinks it was the covid vaccine regarding the other patients having cases of tendonitis. For now this is the health care provider she sees and she will be seeing ortho. She never had any hip or back problems and has always been perfectly healthy so this was kind of a freaky thing. The vaccine was administered to her right arm which is the same arm the reported events began in. Even with steroids, the steroids helped a little but it is still just like a constant ache; the steroid is Prednisone and she saw the provider on Tuesday and wanted to go get an Xray before the caller started the steroids and started them later that day on Wednesday 20Dec2023 and she is doing like a burst where she takes two with breakfast for five days by mouth and it is Prednisone 20mg. Other medical conditions: None, just like she said she never even had knee issues or back pain or hip or anything. Investigations: The Xray she had was Wednesday morning at 6:00am on 20Dec2023 and they called said it did not show any abnormality in the arm and now her next step is to be referred to ortho and they will do a nerve study and she is feeling they will do an MRI to see and her daughter sent something to her that nails it right down to everything and it is a condition called SIRVA which is the name of a condition that can happen with vaccines and talks about the tendonitis side of it so she is looking into that and the nerve aspect and does not know until she goes through all this and has to wait for that; her blood work was normal and has that every six months.
