Vaccine: COVID19
Symptoms: Fear of injection, Nervousness, Syncope
Clinical narrative: Patient reported a history of nervousness around needles and had passed out after an immunization in the past. I walked her through the immunization process and after administering her vaccine, I asked her if she was feeling ok before allowing her to leave the clinical room. She stated she was feeling ok so I instructed her to have a seat in the post-vaccination waiting area just outside the pharmacy for 30 minutes so we could observe her as a safety precaution. Shortly after sitting down, the patient fell off her chair. I ran out to check on her and found her unconscious and lying face down on the floor. As soon as I touched her shoulders she began to wake up and tried to get up. I asked her to remain laying down and offered to help her roll over onto her back. I asked her if she could tell me her name - she responded correctly. I asked if she knew  where she was and she correctly stated she was at store. I had her take some deep breaths until her color came back and when she asked if she could please sit up, I assisted her into her chair and asked a technician to get a bottle of water for her. She felt a little shaky so I continued to hold onto her shoulders until she felt completely stable. She was able to take a few sips of water which helped her feel more steady. EMS arrived and checked her blood pressure and blood glucose levels. She was cleared by EMS and chose not to go to the hospital for further care. I had her call a friend to drive her home and stay with her for a while to make sure she was ok.

Symptoms: Dizziness, Nausea, Pain in extremity
Clinical narrative: After shot #1 within ten minutes I felt a wave of nausea, light-headedness, and dizziness pass through my body that lasted about a minute or two. I reported this to the pharmacist and she explained nausea was a symptom of the vaccine and let me go home. That night I had several waves of nausea/dizziness that lasted for a few minutes. I was mostly fine after that. Before shot #2 I relayed symptoms again to the pharmacist and she said to expect something similar for my second shot. After shot #2 I felt nothing except a sore arm until nine days later when I was hit with extreme dizziness, light-headedness, and nausea while driving. The symptoms persisted for several days and I went to my doctor to see if it could be a reaction to the vaccine. The doctor said no because it was too far out from my shot date and believes it's "motion sickness/vertigo" due to my age/gender and prescribed me Dramamine to get by. I'm still experiencing symptoms 13 days out from the date of my second shot.
