A 41-year-old patient of an unspecified gender received the second dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 MRNA VACCINE; Lot: EW0158, Expiry: 31Jul2021), via an unspecified route of administration in the left arm on 16Apr2021 (at the age of 41-years-old) as a single dose for COVID-19 immuniztaion. Medical history included hypertension. Concomitant medications include triamterene tablet, hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) tablet. The patient previously received the first dose of BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 MRNA VACCINE; Lot: ER2613) on 20Mar2021 (at the age of 41-years-old) for COVID-19 immunization and experienced "sore arm right in the area where the injection site was". On 16Apr2021, the afternoon after the second vaccination, the patient experienced fever, chills, muscle ache and pain, severe headache (off and on), nausea, diarrhea for 2 days, swollen lymph nodes upon the left arm for about 5 days. On 16Apr2021, the patient experienced itching, rash that looked like impetigo but the emergency room people claimed it was scabies. The patient did not think he/she had scabies. At the emergency room, the patient's temperature was 99 and above. On an unspecified date, the patient experienced a lot of sores on the body which burn and itch. The sores started to heal after the patient was given 9cc of dexamethasone (DECADRON) and methylprednisolone for 7 days, however, they left ugly/bad black marks that looked exactly like measles or chicken pox (the patient had chicken pox when younger). The sores looked like impetigo, per the patient, when it blistered up and they burned and wouldn't heal and left the black mark and were very itchy. Luckily, the patient didn't get it on the face. The patient had been taking diphenhydramine (BENADRYL) since before the emergency room visit, and paracetamol (TYLENOL) daily including the day of the vaccination (and when the patient experienced a feeling of "unwillingness"), since an unknown date and the temperature lingered between 99 and 100. The doctor prescribed more diphenhydramine that the patient had taken one every 4-6 hours, basically around the clock. The patient was in bed, could hardly breathe as of an unspecified date. On an unspecified date in Apr2021 (3 days after the vaccination) the patient was unable to take food and was still at home and just now starting to take food. Per the patient, the body reacted so bad to the shot, this was an allergic reaction to the vaccine. The patient still had itching on the lower part of the leg. The events had put the patient out of work, since the second vaccination. The clinical outcome of itching, rash that looks like impetigo, scabies, "sores on my body, they burn", "blisters up", "they are leaving ugly black mark", allergic reaction to the vaccine, could hardly breathe, "I started not being able to take my food", fever, chills, muscle ache and pain, severe headache (off and on), nausea, diarrhea, swollen lymph nodes upon the left arm was unknown.; Sender's Comments: Linked Report(s) : US-PFIZER INC-2021467186 same patient/drug, different vaccine dose/AE
