Clinical narrative: 1st Shot on 6/24/2021 - 2 days after receiving 1st Covid Vaccine started experiencing dull stomach pain with the pain getting sharper sometime a little bit after eating. I didn't think much about it and went on with normal routine. Then, after a week of the stomach issues, started having pressure in my esophagus and feeling like something was stuck in my throat when swallowing. 2 days after that issue started, woke up to chest pain. That is when I went to the doctors on 7/7. EKG and blood work was normal. Doctors treated me for Acid reflux (never had before) and prescribed Omeprazole (40mg). Doctor had no concerns with me getting 2nd shot.  Receive 2nd shot on 7/29/2021 - About 20 minutes after 2n shot felt like my throat was closing up a little bit, sharp chest pain that lasted for around an hour, then sharper upper stomach pain lasted for a couple hours, then tingling and numbness in both arms, legs and feet and headache. The following 2 day still had some tingling and numbness but lighter and headache. That sunday (8/1.21) all issues came back, chest pain, more intense tingling and numbness, pressure up more my esophagus and feeling like something was stuck in throat even when breathing so went to Medical ER. Blood pressure was high when I arrived but went down while in ER. Ran another EGK, blood work and X-ray of chest and all was normal. ER prescribed me Sucralfate 10ml. Started feeling better for several days, then my ankles swelled for about 12 hrs starting the evening of 8/8. Then, 8/9 started feeling one side of my face get hot and red (like a heat wave) and started taking my blood pressure which would get elevated beyond normal range (sometimes getting up into the 170s/100s). Got back into doctor on 8/11, some additional blood work was completed and normal and prescribed Propranolol 20mg (as needed; only took 2 times when blood pressure was high). Then, other than on and off tingling and numbness on right side arm, hand, feet and leg and headache occasionally, other issues had subsided at that point for almost 2 weeks. Then, started having lower back pain that causes pain down butt and back of legs and neck pain and the tingling and numbness came back intense at times again remaining on right side and on and off headache with pressure on and off and intense at time in my ears and tingling in tongue sometimes. Also started feeling weird/off in my head. Went to urgent care on 9/6 to see about an X-ray of back and neck, in which they didn?t do, and that doctor recommended that my doctor refer me to Neurologist. Emailed my doctor on 9/7 to tell her know I was still having issues and what the MedEx doctor had recommended. My doctor a few days later put in an order for neck and back X-ray and referral to Neurologist. Neck and back X-ray showed to be normal. She had also previously referred me to have a GI scope completed in which that was normal with doctor seeing a small sliding hernia in stomach. Knowing that it would take some time to get into a Neurologist, I then decided to go to another doctor for a 2nd opinion on 9/17. He had my anti-body levels checked in which they were over the chart (over 2,500) in which he thinks may have caused my body to have an auto-immune response to the vaccine. I had Covid in Oct. 2020 as a milder case with no linger issues after a week and half until my vaccine. He prescribed me Prednisone in which seem to have helped some, so he recent prescribed another round to see if it was kick my body/immune system fully back to normal (currently taken). He also ordered MRI which was normal. Still dealing with some lighter pressure in ears on and off, lower back pain and pain down butt and back legs at times, lighter tingling in numbness in right leg and foot, nerve twitching on and off. Lower back pain is the worst at this time.
