A contactable consumer (patient, patient care technician) reported that a 61-years-old male patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration (not really sure, guess it was muscular but he was not sure) on 27Jul2021 at 61-years-old (Batch/Lot Number: EW0171) as dose 1, single on Left arm for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included hypertension, allergic to like dust and stuff like that because he was tested already a couple of years ago. Concomitant medication included bisoprolol fumarate and hydrochlorothiazide (Ziac but he took the generic brand) taken for hypertension. Transferring agent stated, "He got the first dose of the COVID 19 Vaccine last July 27 and last night he had some reactions that's itching, scratching all over the body. There is no difficulty in breathing only itchiness and it felt hot. He took Benadryl 25 mg (treatment) and after that it went away. He wanted to know if t his  is because of the shot or if there is the possibility that he had sorry, if t his  is the possibility of having an allergy from the vaccine?". Consumer stated if they wouldn't be able to tell him whether or not it was from the shot? They would be able to clarify, so like he explained to her he did work for hospital and so he was asking the nurse that he work with as a matter of fact there were 2 nurse there, one of those were supervisor because she had to tell the supervisor what he was experiencing and the supervisor said she doesn't think that it was a reaction because of what he probably had once sooner than that, so she really does think that's from the shot. But he just wanted to touch face and call up Pfizer just to be on the safe side to find out. So he can call that number on Monday and he can probably get more information from them because he was scheduled to get the second dose on 16th of August. So before he get the second dose he wanted to make sure that it's okay. Consumer stated, he received the Pfizer shot on the 27Jul2021 which was Tuesday of last week and so on Friday he work night at the Medical Centre in (withheld). So, on Friday night he had lunch around at around 2 O' Clock in morning. he didn't have any allergies he was not allergic to any kind of food and all he was allergic to was like dust and you know stuff like that because he was tested already couple of years ago. He had some orange juice when he was having sandwich probably like chicken carver sandwich that was around 2 O' Clock at around 3, he wanted to say moving ahead once to 2:30 at around 3 O' Clock he started itching and it got so bad that he actually still have like scratch marks on my chest my belly was itching,  his  tongue felt very strange the upper part of my mouth felt like was numb my eyes got pink red and he felt like he was on fire so after that he immediately told his charge nurse, he said something was not right and she said what's wrong how do you feel? he said he was just itching he can't control it and she said okay you know go ahead and see how you feel. So, she waited for 2 minutes then he said (withheld) and he came back to her and he said no you need to get me a Benadryl right away first there is something not right she went and called pharmacy and got me 25 mg of Benadryl, so probably it had been half hours after that may be 45 minutes it went away but it was the worst feeling he have ever had he has never had this  experience before and he didn't know whether was from something that he eat which never happened before never happen the food allergies or was it a reaction was it a delayed action from the shot so she called her supervisor up and supervisor said she doesn't think that was a reaction from the shot because it shouldn't have happen because he did stay 15 minutes afterwards to make sure you know nothing went wrong and he head my home and he was okay and subsided it was little itchy and it was little sore so he took Tylenol he took some Tylenol and so that was that and then all of a sudden it happens and he was saying wow this  has never happened to him before so he wanted to just report it to Pfizer the first part gave him this  number to call just to report it on Monday morning which he did so he don't force to step he should take after bit. It was also reported that Tylenol was taken the first day when he received the shot so he receive the shot on 27th so he took the Tylenol (LOT number SPPA0722 and expiration is Oct2024) on the 27th it was a little. No other vaccines 4 weeks prior to first dose of COVID Vaccine. When asked for any help: Consumer stated, "I am just wondering as far as the second the second dose which would be on Aug 16th he am just concern what gonna you can give me an answer the question for me will he experience the same thing after the second dose what should he experience or what? Cause he am little Nervous he am nervous because its mandatory so he can't get out of it well he just need to know well he experience the same thing and you know what should he do if this  happens again?
