Vaccine: COVID19, COVID19
Symptoms: Product administered at inappropriate site
Clinical narrative: I believe the vaccine was administered incorrectly. The shot was very superficial, and did not feel like it entered my muscle. The pharmacist pinched my skin up prior to administering. I did not feel any pain in the moment, nor have I had any muscular sensations whatsoever since then. No bruising, stiffness, nothing of the sort as has been reported by others I know who have received the vaccine. I had no systemic reactions either, aside from a mild "buzz" in the first few minutes right after I received the vaccine. At first I thought the superficial administration was perhaps related to the brand. Most people I know have received the Moderna shot. I consulted CDC resources to find that all COVID vaccines are intramuscular, and that is where I realized I may have received it incorrectly. I understand per CDC guidance that another dose is not to be administered in replacement. I would like to know how or if the pharmacy will be alerted to this potential error, especially since I am scheduled to receive the second dose there later this month.

Symptoms: Dysstasia, Muscle spasms, Myalgia, Neuralgia, Pain in extremity
Clinical narrative: Went to bed  on fourth night after shot with symptoms from shot seemingly resolved.  Woke up the fifth day and got out of bed to discover intense pain in right leg. Nothing like a charley horse cramp.  Small nodule about the size of a pea, located 6 inches up from outside ankle bone. ¼ inch beneath skin. Great difficultly putting weight on right leg,  created acute feeling of pinching or twisting pain. Level of pain (1-10) was an eight [note: my definition of the ?worst pain imaginable? has been altered after being stung by a tarantula hawk wasp]. I hobbled to the bathroom and took two aspirin. Hobbling around on flat surfaces gradually reduced pain to a level 3-4, though I had trouble walking up and down steps for the remainder of the day (level 5-6).  Fifth day, the pain level on flat surfaces was down to 1-2, on stairs, 2-3. at end of sixth day, no pain on flat surfaces, 1-2 on stairs.  No pain by evening. I took two aspirin in morning and two in afternoon during this period. Seventh day, I woke up to find pain returned as I got out of bed (level 4) but was walked out within in three to four hours. I had talked with my sister (an extreme case of Factor five leiden, which I do not have) and felt this was not a blood clot, but went in to the doctor?s because my husband and I were about to leave on vacation. She ordered a Doppler and ultrasound (which showed no blood clot) after telling me this type of muscle/nerve pain was just starting to be reported in patients after the vaccine. She had seen an earlier patient who had swelling and inflammation, which showed no other explanation after testing than post-vaccination reaction. I felt no lump, heat, or tenderness pushing on the skin.  Doctor requested I report it on-line.

Symptoms: Injection site rash, Pain in extremity, Pruritus, Rash pruritic
Clinical narrative: Four days after 2nd shot my arm became more painful and itchy.  It continued to increase and became obvious it was a rash.  Small bumps appeared and spread further away from the injection site but close and extended around my upper arm about  3 inches wide and 4 -5 inches long.  This became very itchy.  As of today it is no longer itchy but from scratching the spots are still visible.  The little scabs from scratching will go away.

Symptoms: Hypoaesthesia oral, Migraine, Mouth swelling
Clinical narrative: I got the vaccine shot 3/25. The next morning 3/26 @ 6:34 I woke up with a massive migraine. I took some meds for the migraine with very little relief. I decided to go to the emergency room Saturday night at the hospital. Hours later I was released still in pain because they found nothing wrong from my labs. Monday 3/29 I went to hospital for help in the out patient clinic because my bottom lip was numb and the right side of my face was swollen and throbbing. I was prescribed clindamycin and naproxen in hopes that whatever the issue was would go away because they still don't know why all of a sudden this has happened. I have been taking my prescriptions since prescribed and there is no difference or relief. My mouth is so swollen I can't really eat. I wasn't feeling any of this ever before until the next morning after receiving the covid vaccine.

Symptoms: Depressed mood
Clinical narrative: I believe I had a sudden drop in Serotonin levels.  I became very depressed very quickly.  I even had thoughts of suicide surface.  I did not reach out for help because I knew I could manage it.  I have worked in mental health and chemical dependency.  It lasted about 6 hours and then I was fine.  In retrospect, I believe I had a similar reaction with the first injection on February 8th, 2021 at 10 am  with the reaction starting about 7 pm that evening and lasting 24 hours.  I did not connect it to the vaccine at that point.  I have been talking to a therapist since the beginning of the pandemic due to isolation I have been experiencing mild depression that comes and goes but is very manageable.  This was much more intense and more sudden and immediate.  I did not feel at risk even with suicidal ideation, but felt I should report it because if other less experience, educated people experience this it could be dangerous.  It took me so long to report because, in my 70's, I couldn't figure out how until one of my children visited and showed me.
