That day when she got home she had some chills and a slight headache and now after two weeks she still does not feel right. She woke up not too long ago and already has a headache and she never gets headaches and usually that means she was getting sick with a cold or something. She has been taking Tylenol for the headaches. She stated something just does not feel right. She stated she felt like she had a fever because her cheeks and forehead are hot but when she want to the doctor they took her temperature and they said everything was okay so she does not think it was a fever. She stated she does not feel good or right ever since this vaccine. She does not feel good enough to work out like she usually does.

She stated if she still feels this way next week she is not going to get the second shot. She stated she is seriously debating getting the second dose. Then asked if she could just postpone her second dose until she feels better. She stated she went a couple days ago to get a prescription refilled that helps her sleep but they only gave her 20 and not a months supply because the doctor said he did not know her. She initially stated she still has from the day of a slight headache and chills which she said ok that is kind of normal stuff here. but now it is almost 2 weeks later and she does not feel right and is debating getting the second dose and maybe she will skip it Should I still be feeling like this. Slight headache: Caller stated she has a headache already and just woke up. Caller stated she never gets headaches and basically is really healthy so something is wrong and not right so she was debating on skipping the second dose. Caller stated she was not going to get the vaccine at all initially and then she thought maybe she should because of her age and she can not take it back and maybe she should have stuck with her guns because she felt fine and has no health issues. Caller stated now she has to take Tylenol everyday for headache. Caller stated it also feels like she has a slight fever. Chills: Caller stated the she just does not feel right. Caller later clarified stated the chills stopped yesterday and seems to be sporadic and so she was thinking maybe she caught a cold and then started to trace back what is different and every since the shot she does not feel the same. Caller stated she know how she feels as she is in tune with her body and exercises and tries to eat good. Caller stated now she does not feel good enough and right to exercise. Caller stated she know she sounds wishy washy since she is not specific but she just knows that she does not feel right. Caller stated she is unsure of the outcome because right now she does not have chills but she just woke up an hour or so ago. Caller stated she already has a headache and she never gets headaches unless she is getting sick. Caller stated she keeps taking Tylenol and she is not going to keep taking it because that can not be good. Feels like she has a slight fever: Caller stated she is feeling her cheeks right now and it is funny because she has been to places like the doctor to get a refill for her prescription and they took her temperature and she must not have a fever because they will not let you in if someone has a fever and they did not say anything. Caller stated she is feeling her forehead and cheeks and they feel warm. Patient had no previous immunization with the Pfizer vaccine considered as suspect. No additional vaccine was administered.
