It was reported that Caller, a 67-year-old female, had her 2nd shot on 17May2021 of the Pfizer covid vaccine. She experienced hot and cold flu symptoms, nerve pain, rash, that sort of stuff. Caller added after the transfer that she had a history of covid infection. Caller would like to know what the procedure is to get an antibody test. Because someone told her since she has a history of covid she should have done an antibody test before the vaccine. What exactly is an antibody test. Caller had second shot on Monday and had allergic reaction Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Tuesday and Wednesday were the worst. Hot and cold flu systems worse than the flu. Achy muscles. More in nerve system. Caller states she has nerve muscle disease. It was pretty bad in the joints. Caller states she is most concerned about the rash. Rash is around where they gave her the shot. She has a real big one on her wrist because she got the shot on the left and she has some on the right. Rash is on left wrist and all over her stomach and her back. Rash started as hives and now rash. Caller states she had Covid in January. Caller says she didn't know what to do because some said she didn't need to get the shot, and some said she does and now she is hearing that she might be having an allergic reaction because she did have the Covid. Caller explains she might have antibodies because she had Covid. She got the shot on Monday. Thought she should call. Event: Caller states this event happened on Tuesday. She was concerned because today is the third day and she still has it, the rash. She is feeling a little better, still kind of nauseated but better than she was. The aches and pains are gone. Hot and cold started on Tuesday, 18May2021. It is better, improved, but it hard to tell with air conditioning on, she usually can handle the cold so when she says it is cold, it is cold. Caller notes the hot and cold, were part of the flu symptoms, aches and pains and upset stomach. The aches and pains started on 18May2021; she woke up with them. They are better, improved but slightly still there, hard to tell because of her nerve disease. The joint muscle pain started a day later than the other aches and pains, it is better, improved. Caller states the weird part was when she got the shot, about 2 hours later she got nerve pain in back of her neck. That is where she has her neck and nerve disease, in her spine and her neck. Pain was instantly right there in the neck 2 hours after the shot. It was like a pinched nerve, like someone was grabbing a hold of it and not letting go, that is what her muscle and nerve pains are. It was almost like they gave the shot into a nerve, but she knows they give it in the muscle. That went away yesterday. The rash started as hives on Tuesday. It changed on Wednesday to rash. She still has rash today. It is pretty red, pinkish red. The rash is still kind of puffy too. Caller states she got the shot in her left upper arm. The rash was on both arms on Tuesday and then just wrists. The rash has improved on the right wrist, but it is still really red on the left wrist. The stomach rash is a little improved but still there. It is just not as red as it was. Caller says she can't see her back, so she is not sure if the rash on her back is gone.
