On an unspecified date, the patient experienced never got the second dose because of the side effects and the pain in my arm has got really bad from last 10 days and i can't sleep because of it from past 3 days, nerve pain mixed with muscle pain and swelling. On 23Feb2021 13:00, the patient experienced redness at the site bit it was small, a crushing headache, instant extreme diarrhea, my arm was so painful i could not lift it and had burning and pain, felt so fatigued i could not stay awake, i got covid arm, which is a huge red welt at the injection site, pain, numbness, extremely sick to my stomach, vomiting, lethargic, dizzy, vertigo, have fevers off and on, the symptoms have come back, i am sick today still. Laboratory tests on an unspecified date included sars-cov-2 test was negative (I had got tested for COVID before I got the shot and it's been negative). Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of my arm was so painful i could not lift it and had burning and pain. Treatment included Keppra and the generic version term for it is levetiracetam 500mg tablet twice a day (patient take that every day ) and Ativan 1 to 5mg oral (patient take that as needed state that so whenever the patient feel like seizure coming she takes it and don't take it every day). The patient stated that she had the first Pfizer COVID shot, I am a teacher up here at (Address withheld). I had the first shot and I had to, sick and had to 'teak' after I reported it to various system online. And then a couple week later it hit me again really really bad and my arm became COVID arm, and I am an epileptic so that's is another reason I am reporting because I don't know it could do to my epilepsy or my meds or whatever. But than my arm is hurting me, its been hurting me non stop since like around 23Feb, and I had the red welt rash on the upper left shoulder on my arm where I got the injection, and now my arm is numb from the shoulder down to the elbow and its hurt every day 24/7 and there is nothing that doctor can do for me. So ever since I got that shot and I never got the second dose because of the side effects, my arm is almost worthless I cant lift my arm up without pain, I can't lay on it, everything I do causes massive pain where the injection site is and I am concern because this is two month of this. And out of the blue after 3 week after the first shot I got massive fatigue and fever again, I got sick, and I never leave my house, I am a remote teacher, I live alone and I have my groceries delivered. So, I have not exposed anybody. I had got tested for COVID before I got the shot and it's been negative, so what happen is now the last couple of weeks it became unbearable I am taking Motrin, Tylenol, everything and my upper left shoulder, the rash went away but the pain got unreal, it's like nerve pain mixed with muscle pain, and I am reporting this to Pfizer because I wanted to get the second shot because but I can't because I am in so much of agony. And I heard that the second shot is worst, I don't think I will survive it, so for the fact that I am 48, I have had epilepsy since I am 15, it started when I was 15 and I take seizure meds, this was important that somebody from Pfizer talk to me about this because my arm is almost useless and I've never had these problems before. I am a person that exercises or whatever but literally my arm is 24/7 in pain since I've had that shot. The redness went away but the pain on injection site got worst, so from my shoulder to my elbow it's like constant pain. The redness went away but it was like elevated swollen and that went away. You can still see the outline of where the patch was. The redness and swelling went away about 2 weeks ago. Treatment: consumer stated, "No because they couldn't do anything for it. The doctors told me to take some Tylenol and Motrin. He was like there is nothing we can do about it. I took Tylenol and Motrin for that pain so I could sleep at night. It's not even working so I could get some relief, it hurts all the time. Dose of Tylenol: Consumer stated, "650mg tablets, I take 2. and the Motrin for muscle pain that's 200 mg and I take 2 of those. I take once twice or thrice a day depending how bad the pain is and I always try to take it before going to bed because the Motrin is for the muscle pain but it doesn't help at all. The clinical outcome of the events never got the second dose because of the side effects and the pain in my arm has got really bad from last 10 days and i can't sleep because of it from past 3 days and Nerve pain mixed with muscle pain was unknown, event swelling and redness at the site bit it was small was recovered and all other events was not recovered.  No follow-up attempts are possible. No further information is expected.
