The following information was reported: PAIN IN EXTREMITY (non-serious) with onset Jan2021, outcome "recovered" (25Jan2021), described as "mildly sore arm"; SOMNOLENCE (non-serious) with onset 2021, outcome "unknown", described as "may have slept more than usual". Relevant laboratory tests and procedures are available in the appropriate section.  Additional information: The patient healthy 71 yr old female, married 49yrs, 3 natural births to healthy children, 7 perfect grandchildren. The patient 5ft 9 1/2in., considered tall and thin at the rate about 1351bs. The patient walks briskly 3.5-4mi. almost every day, weather permitting, and even run a little; the patient done this for about 25yrs, though slowing down a bit lately. The patient takes 4 prescribed medications. This seems like a lot, to me, but these medications/vitamins have all been prescribed or recommended by my doctors over the years. The patient only lists them in the event that drug interactions might possibly have some bearing on my case.  It should be noted that patient extremely pro-vaccine. When first offered, the mRNA vaccines seemed miraculous, and patient belief in the safety and efficacy behind that technology has never wavered. I wish 100% of the people in this country felt, even AFTER the "adverse reaction" patient endured. The patient received 1st Covid vaccination on 22Jan2021, the injection given in left arm, by a nurse at a small rural hospital 2 hours from my home. At that time, Covid vaccinations were scarce; patient husband, a now-retired pathologist, had heard of surplus vials at this hospital, and patient felt extremely fortunate that was able to take advantage of an extra dose. The patient had a mildly sore arm for about 3 days afterwards, and may have slept more than usual, but generally suffered NO ill effects. About 30 years ago, patient had successful discectomy and fusion Of a neck vertebrae, necessitated by a herniating disc that had caused severe shoulder, arm and upper back pain symptoms. An MRI of my neck was ordered in mid-May2021 to ascertain whether or not that problem had resurfaced; results were normal, and my pain and mobility problems could not be attributed to any former or current neck involvement. A car accident at age 27 left patient with a broken left collar bone, so severe that it had to be pinned/screwed together for many weeks. With a 6mo. old and a 21/2yr. old at home, that was a nightmare. at age Il, I slipped at school's cafeteria, and the small glass milk bottle patient been carrying broke, sliced the palm of left hand open, and severed the tendon at my thumb; patient had a (then) revolutionary new hand surgery to correct the injury a tendon transplant. Doctors took an extra tendon from left wrist and reattached it inside thumb; the surgery was successful, and somewhat ground-breaking at that time. The patient has a lot of scars on my left arm. The patient also have arthritis in both hands, a hereditary condition diagnosed a few years ago; severity comes and goes, and although it hasn't progressed to the point that surgical intervention is needed, that day will most likely come. NONE of these health issues are believed, so far, to have contributed to what has happened to me presently, as regards the Covid vaccine. The patient takes take a multivitamin. The patient did not receive other vaccines within four weeks prior to COVID vaccine.; Sender's Comments: Linked Report(s) : US-PFIZER INC-202200101818 same patient, different vaccine dose/event;
