Clinical narrative: Within 8 hours after receiving booster, experienced fast heart rate (95-120 bpm), weakness, headache and dizziness. Heartrate was measured continuously by my watch which kept alerting me that an abnormal heart rate was detected (normal resting heart rate is 69). Went to urgent care for EKG which was inconclusive. Then went to the hospital ER, EKG found no abnormal function, given fluids, anti-inflammatory, and observed until heartrate came down below 90.  Within 2 weeks eczema patches started growing on my face, neck, and ears for the first time ever.  The ear eczema got so bad I had to get a prescription steriod cream (Cloderm) and the ENT doctor had to clear blocked excess wax from my left ear which was blocking hearing and creating pressure.

Symptoms: Biopsy, Blood test abnormal, Condition aggravated, Giant cell arteritis, Inappropriate schedule of product administration
Clinical narrative: I had muscle aches, headache and fatigure for four weeks after the first COVID 19 vaccination on 1/14/2021.   I took alternating doses of Tylenol and Advil to try to relieve the symptoms.  My primary doctor advised me to get the second vaccination even though symptoms continued.  I received the second vaccination 2/12/2021.   After about 3 days, my symptoms got much worse. Muscles aches made it difficult to riase my arms. I saw a rheumatologist (Dr.) who prescribed Prednisone for these PMR symptoms.  However, the symptoms continued and I also developed jaw pain.  Blood tests indicated high level of inflammation.  Giant cell Arteritis was suspected and I had a biopsy that confirmed this diagnosis.  After the biopsy confirmed that I had Giant Cell Arteritus, Dr. prescribed prednisone 60 mg per day.  This releived the symptoms and after several weeks the blood tests indicated that my inflammation readings had returned to normal.  I am continuing to take predbisone at lower doses.  It is hoped that tapering the prednisone doses will prevent a return of the GCA symptoms.  Dr. says it is not possible to tell if the Covid vaccines caused the GCA.  However, since it began right after receiving the vaccinations, I believe that the vaccines acted as a trigger for the GCA.  Thus I am very reluctant to get a booster shot.
