Clinical course: Consumer stated, " I have had eight of the Pfizer COVID shots, eight of them and unfortunately, my friend and I got COVID about 2-3 days ago (Further information was not available over the call about friend). So, anyway my doctor prescribed Paxlovid from Pfizer for me and I got it today, well, yesterday and I took it at 3 PM and then I just took it now at 3 AM and I am looking at these pills, the pills that they gave me, these pills are already expired. The box and the pills are labelled that they expired Sep2023. Are these pills good because they have given to me because I am older and I have diabetes and I had a heart operation and so these are supposed to be good to help me recover from COVID. It's a blister pack with the 3 pills for the morning, 3 pills for the 12 hours later. Covid vaccine details: Consumer stated, "I don't have it handy but my most recent shot because all I have gotten almost 3 years ago. I only use Pfizer. All my shots were at that drug store either that location or one mile away but I had them at withheld so they are all on records there. I have not had any at my doctor's office at all. Consumer stated, I usually only have my shots on the left arm. Medical Conditions: Consumer stated, yes, I have, I guess, I am considering heart failure because I had a triple bypass operation 3 years ago and that was actually, that was a sign, I had a heart attack but no damage so that all was good. When confirmed if had the issues of heart after or before taking the COVID vaccine: Consumer stated, Well, I can tell you the truth, I don't remember having any problems and after the first COVID shot and then I guess, you waited a month or something and you have a second shot. After those two shots, I didn't feel so great. I went to the doctor and they did an EKG and it came out abnormal and they had me go every month for four months in a row, they did an EKG in the office and puts it out abnormal and after that they gave me a CAT scan and they send, a 'needle' sent through my heart over the arteries or whatever we call it and when they put me to sleep, they woke me up for 50 minutes and they said we couldn't do this needle operation, 3 of your arteries are blocked like almost the 100 percent and just before that I was in the hospital over night for something else and they gave me CAT scan, echocardiogram, they checked my carotid arteries, everything was completely falling, no anything and that was an year prior. So, all this with my heart happened after I got the first two COVID shots. Lab work (With in 2 weeks): Consumer stated, No. I take that new injection Mounjaro for diabetes, 7.5 milligrams and it is like a little epipen, it is one shot a week. Treatment: Consumer stated, "Well, I haven't had ever since the operation 3 years ago, I have no problem with my heart at all and my diabetes, now as I am using the Mounjaro injection there for probably for 6 months now and my blood sugar became normal like A1C is perfect and I lost 50 pounds (further clarifications unknown)." Clarified if had Diabetes before or after taking the COVID shot: Consumer stated, "No, the diabetes, I have that for 30 years and the high blood pressure, same thing like 30 years. The only thing that got crazy was after the first 2 injections, I had that problem with the heart with the EKG's and all that and I never, I thought maybe it had something to do with the shots but I don't know, I never had a problem before.
