Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of events. He was tested negative two weeks in a row before getting vaccinated. The clinical course of events was as follows: Patient got his first vaccine and went into anaphylactic shock and was hospitalized. After the vaccine, caller went into anaphylactic shock. Went to ER and was hospitalized. Ha resulted in 3 doses of Prednisone as well as albuterol. At hospital he did all kinds of X-rays, and scans: ha had to do chest X-rays and chest scans and ultrasounds. Also did EKGs and heart monitoring, blood work and a few other thing. Almost immediately, within 2-3 days, had a gout flare up. His flare ups usually last 1-2 weeks, but right now he's going on six weeks. Has been to the hospital and urgent care 3 times. He completely changed his diet over the past 3-4 weeks. He did cherry extract. He took Endomyocin and Colchicine religiously. This was the worse gout flare up he's ever had. Anaphylactic shock was as a result of the lymph node swelling. Throat swelled up was on both sides of neck and in both armpits. Both armpits were quadruple in size after the first dose. Within hours after the first dose, armpits were swelling. Ha was taking his albuterol.  Within a couple hours, went home and was taking Tylenol. He went to sleep. He woke up around 4 AM on 17Sep2021 and both armpits are huge, he couldn't put arms down and he thought was having a heart attack: left side went numb / arm was asleep, chest was hurting, chest was compressed, arm was going numb, both kidneys were hurting, armpits were swollen, neck was swollen. Throat was swollen. He stated this was between 3:00-4:00AM. He had flu-like symptoms: cold, sniffling, sneezing, and stuffy. He had to do breathing treatments, he was having a hard time breathing. He also was taken to Banner urgent care where they did the testing. He tested negative for COVID-19 twice and quarantined prior to getting his COVID-19 Vaccines. Gout flare began 24-48 hours after the first dose. Foot had swollen up. It happened in left foot, big toe, first joint knuckle. Usually ice, Endomyocin and Colchicine worked. During the first two weeks he got progressively worse. He kept going to the ER. This time, the gout split open his toe. He got more medicine. He went to hospital and was told to ice it. It was swollen for two weeks. Finally it came down after maybe 2 weeks. Now it was still sensitive and hard to move. Still he has uric acid down in there. He was doing everything he couod to alleviate the levels. By the third day, it was swollen to almost double or triple in size. Had three to four nights of not sleeping. He probably missed 1.5 weeks of work due to the gout flare. He had allergies, sniffles, and coughing. Treatment: Endomyocin 50mg: once to twice a day, however, he has been taking 3; Colchicine: 2 on the first day, 1 ever subsequent day for a total of 3 days (it should be a total of 4 days taking it because it's poisonous), he took that in the beginning of the gout flare, he waited one to two weeks and then started it again. He is trying to attack the uric acid and changed his diet. Gout was better at week 6 than it is at week 4. Still has the blowout on the side of his toe and he can't put a bedsheet on it; Prednisone: at hospital as urgent care; Benadryl. Neither the gout nor the flu like symptoms have relived in six weeks. The only thing lasting is the gout, cold, and still having trouble swallowing with the lymph nodes. Nothing is affecting his breathing.  Has been trying to figure out the link between gout and the COVID-19 Vaccine. Doctor said he was not sick, just associating this as a side effect of the COVID-19 Vaccine. Patient and his doctor strongly believed that the cause of the gout has to do with the vaccine. They have no proof at this point but he has never been in such a flair up so patient could can only assume in the most moderate conservative way that the Pfizer vaccine was the reason for my extreme gout flare up right now. He states that he will go to ER right now. A Product Complaint was filed.  Follow-up attempts are completed. No further information is expected.
