Clinical narrative: my heart starting beating fast; Large red egg on my upper right arm.; My body ached/Hurts all the time; the side of my mouth was numb at times; about 3-4 months my hair curled like i had a perm put in it; My arms, hands and legs ached and burned; This is a spontaneous report received from a contactable reporter(s) (Consumer or other non HCP). The reporter is the patient.  A 71 year-old female patient (not pregnant) received bnt162b2 (BNT162B2), administered in arm left, administration date 10Mar2021 15:00 (Lot number: EN6208) as dose 1, single for covid-19 immunisation. Relevant medical history included: "Bacterial Pnuemonia", start date: Apr2021 (unspecified if ongoing), notes: In hospital 4 days; "Gall Bladder Surgery", start date: Dec2019 (unspecified if ongoing), notes: Pertinent Details: emergency; "Overian tumor", start date: Feb2006 (unspecified if ongoing), notes: Pertinent Details: 5.5-pound tumor and hysterectomy; "H/O adenomatous polyp of colon", start date: 2016 (unspecified if ongoing), notes: Pertinent Details: benign; "Glaucoma" (unspecified if ongoing); "high cholesterol" (unspecified if ongoing); "Anxiety from husband's death" (unspecified if ongoing); "paroxysmal SVT" (unspecified if ongoing); "viral sinus infection" (unspecified if ongoing); "my potassium level went below three" (unspecified if ongoing); "my small pox shot" (unspecified if ongoing). Concomitant medication(s) included: DIGOXIN taken for supraventricular tachycardia, start date: 1990, stop date: 2021; ASPIRIN [ACETYLSALICYLIC ACID]; CALCIUM; ALPRAZOLAM taken for anxiety, start date: 2013 (ongoing); ROSUVASTATIN taken for blood cholesterol increased (ongoing); LATANOPROST taken for glaucoma (ongoing). The following information was reported: HEART RATE INCREASED (non-serious) with onset 19Mar2021, outcome "not recovered", described as "my heart starting beating fast"; ERYTHEMA (non-serious) with onset 19Mar2021, outcome "not recovered", described as "Large red egg on my upper right arm."; PAIN (non-serious) with onset 19Mar2021, outcome "not recovered", described as "My body ached/Hurts all the time"; HYPOAESTHESIA ORAL (non-serious) with onset 2021, outcome "unknown", described as "the side of my mouth was numb at times"; HAIR TEXTURE ABNORMAL (non-serious) with onset 2021, outcome "unknown", described as "about 3-4 months my hair curled like i had a perm put in it"; SKIN BURNING SENSATION (non-serious) with onset 2021, outcome "unknown", described as "My arms, hands and legs ached and burned". Relevant laboratory tests and procedures are available in the appropriate section. Therapeutic measures were not taken as a result of heart rate increased, erythema, pain.  Additional information: No other vaccine in four weeks. Other medications in two weeks were reported as Digoxin, aspirin, a statin drug calcium, other supplements. It was reported that patient received his shot, nine days later. Large red egg on his upper right arm. That stayed for another 9 days and was still there, just not red. Hurts all the time. His body ached and his heart starting beating fast. He had taken digoxin for 30 years. He knew about fast beating hearts. Knew that an ingredient in his shot monopotassium phosphate may increase the hyperkalmic activity of digoxin. No one asked if he took a heart pill at the Pfizer blitz at his local clinic. He was not a scientist and off course they will say he misunderstood what he read. Did not matter. They did not test digoxin and the interaction. How many died. They call it underlying heart issues. Or his favorite age. He asked to don't call him elderly like they did at the start of this form. It is disgusting. that tells he that they don't care about anything but making money. What is 1percentage of 5000. Should that many have a reaction or die. Just wondering. Patient did not had covid prior vaccination nor tested for covid post vaccination. Patient had known allergies. Additional information: After reading their letter and looking at their questionnaire he had a couple of questions. Are you really asking me for all of my medical and my family medical information? Why? I want more information than you telling me that you want information. Isn't that private information. I will tell you it was in my left arm not my right where I received the shot. That shouldn't make much difference. I still had a reaction. Please be clearer in your request. I did visit with a couple of people about your request and will be visiting with one more when they are available. Prior Vaccinations (within 4 weeks) were none. Patient was not sure what he should say. On 10Mar he went to the Pfizer Blitz the local clinic. it was fine. Nothing happened until 9 days later when he come out of his morning shower and looked in the mirror and saw a red oval shaped swelling on his left arm above his small pox shot and going up to the top of his arm. He did send an email to the clinic and someone wrote back to put a ice pack on it. He had sent them a picture even. The ice pack didn't work. He had paroxysmal SVT and he took digoxin for it. He had this for most of his life. He know about his heart. The next day it was racing and the digoxin was not working. No one at the vaccination clinic asked if he had a heart condition. Their whole purpose was to get a needle into his arm. It was like a picture of the army lining up recruits to give them every shot they could. He wasn't impressed. It wasn't just his heart that acted up, there were odd things like the side of his mouth was numb at times. His arms, hands and legs ached and burned. Them were odd things that happened like for about 3-4 months his hair curled like he had a perm put in it. Everyone would comment how nice his perm was. It was so thick and curly. He kept cutting it and now in Dec it is back to what it was. He still have curls but not like what he had. He spent a lot of time on the internet studying the ingredients of your vaccine. No one on digoxin should take your vaccine. (i know i am not a great scientist but when it says that digoxin can interact with monopotassium phosphate and you list monobasic potassium phosphate, he really begin to wonder and yet no one mentions it. Even if i am a 1% of the population, it is too many. if you have 5000 people and 1% die of a reaction or even have some reaction, it is too many. Get out of your sterile labs and see people, not statistics. He went for his annual physical (yes i go every year) and my digoxin levels were down and his blood pressure was up. So I was put on a beta blocker as well as the digoxin. He finally went off of the digoxin because heart acted like it had the hiccups. So for now, he was on a beta blocker, his arm still hurts and he can see a faint outline of the egg shaped whatever it is. He had bacterial pneumonia in Apr2020 and spent 4 days in the hospital. It started with a viral sinus infection but he couldn't get well. Everyone thought he had covid. He didn't. But, as a result of the pneumonia, his potassium level went below three and he spent a few hours in outpatient on potassium ivs. It hurt. He had nothing more to say. He had a letter from his doctor not to have anymore vaccine. He stay away from people. He work from home. He still wear a mask. He was more afraid of vaccinated people than he was of unvaccinated people. Vaccinated people think they are entitled to do what they want. They have convinced people that vaccines are the way to go. Penicillin was thought of that way also and they found people became immune to it. Will that happen with vaccines, also.  Follow-up attempts are completed. No further information is expected.
