For mRNA-1273 (Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine) (Intramuscular), the reporter considered ANXIETY (worsened Anxiety) to be possibly related. No further causality assessments were provided for SYNCOPE (seen patient of at this time for syncopal episodes while driving and at work), BIPOLAR DISORDER (worsened Bipolar), DEPRESSED LEVEL OF CONSCIOUSNESS (Decreased level of consciousness), DEPRESSION (worsened Depression), SOMNOLENCE (felt really tired like he couldn't keep his eyes open / his son later woke him and he stated he hadn't realized he went to sleep/Feels like he almost wants to fall asleep), DYSPNOEA (Difficulty breathing/issues with breathing), ILLNESS (Feeling ill) and FATIGUE (felt really tired).    After getting the vaccine in the morning, the patient felt really tired. The patient went to the family doctor for a previously scheduled appointment regarding his condition. On the way there he couldn't keep the eyes open, and felt as if he didn't get enough sleep. The patient hadn't realized that he slept. The patient had assistance from his son because he felt like he could catch his train of thought. The patient told his O2 level was fine and was instructed to take Benadryl.  The HCP reported that anxiety, depression and bipolar might be psychological and wondered why these had gotten worse.
