Caller reported that her "mouth swelled up" (her lips were tingling and it felt like she had cayenne pepper on her lips) and her "tongue felt swollen" (it felt like the sides of her tongue on both sides were expanding). Caller reported that she was "really really dizzy" (she felt lightheaded and if she moved her head quickly it felt like a rush.) and that she did not go back into the facility because she started getting "shaky" .The shaky feeling lasted until she got home, the shakiness felt like the shaking when you have not eaten a lot and you feel like you have got to eat something, took about an hour for her to get home. Caller reported that she has felt the shakiness since when she first experienced on 01Apr2021. Caller reported that she did not know if the shakiness was related or not to the second dose of the Covid-19 vaccine. She could not say when she experienced the shakiness after 01Apr2021, but she knows she had experienced the shakiness since then. Caller reported that her "head got really hot" right away after receiving the second dose of the Covid-19 vaccine but she was unsure if she had a fever or not.

The "injection site pain" following the second dose of the Covid-19 vaccine, but that it was not as bad as the first dose. No investigation assessment was performed.

Caller reported that she had multiple Covid-19 tests and that her antibodies have been checked with negative results. Caller reported that she was dreading going to get her Covid-19 vaccine as she was afraid that she was going to be so sick. The event did not result into emergency room or physician office visit.
