Symptoms: Asthenia, Blood creatinine increased, C-reactive protein increased, Chills, Dyspnoea
Clinical narrative: I was not feeling well after does #1. After Dose #2 I woke up at 2am with a fever of 103. The morning after I had generalized symptoms of all over achy and exhaustion.  These symptoms minus the fever lasted for 8 weeks. I was also having very bad flank aching on the right and left side. Once I fully recovered from the vaccine, every 4-6 weeks I would get a relapse of chills, flank ache and extreme exhaustion that would last about 5-7 days. It was very debilitating.  I kept feeling like I was about to go into full blown fever type of thing. I never had any other symptoms such as runny nose, sore throat, trouble breathing, something that would make me think I was getting a cold or the flu. I thought I was getting a kidney infection.   This went on for about a year or more. Then out of the blue on August 11th, 2023, I woke up at 2am like I did the night of my vaccine in a full blown raging fever of 103.5, The next day I was just exhausted. This again lasted 6 weeks before I felt normal again. I went to the doctor and all they found was a high CRP which I never had before. I was put on Doxycycline for 7 days. The other thing of note, is that after the vaccine, my kidney values changed. they went from being normal in MArch 2021 to high creatinine out of range and low eGFR out of range. This first happened in early 2022.  I never had abnormal values before.

Vaccine: COVID19-2, FLU4
Symptoms: Burning sensation, Disturbance in attention, Injection site warmth, Insomnia, Itching scar
Clinical narrative: Background: On 8/11/23 I had a gender affirming double mastectomy. Within four hours of getting my COVID booster on 9/24/23 my surgical scars began to ache and itch, which got progressively worse as time went on. I attempted to treat this with Benadryl and Advil without luck. On 9/25/23 the sensation in my surgical scars switched to a burning/scalding sensation that was not manageable with Benadryl/advil. The impacted area for the sensation was essentially a 4" band running from armpit to armpit across my chest. It was impossible to focus during the day due to the pain and very difficult to sleep. On 9/26/23 I went to a urgent care facility, where the provider noted that my COVID booster injection site was hot to the touch, as were my surgical scars/sites. I was prescribed a pulse of prednisone and 5% lidocaine patches.  Prednisone dosing was set at 60mg day 1, 40mg for days 2-4, and 20mg for days 5-10.  Lidocaine patches were allowed for 12 hours on, 12 hours off, and I utilized them at night on 9/26 and 9/27 to reduce the remaining sensation in my surgical scar sites to sleep. Prednisone pulse dramatically improved the inflammation and pain in my surgical sites to a tolerable level, and the lidocaine patches further reduced the pain/sensation so I was able to sleep.  I'm not sure which influenza vaccine I received, I was not provided documentation or information by the pharmacy I visited on either vaccine I received, and only know I got the Pfizer COVID shot as it was noted on my appointment.  I believe I have had a reaction similar to what is described in article.

Symptoms: Confusional state, Dizziness, Loss of consciousness, Musculoskeletal stiffness, Nausea
Clinical narrative: Pt got the first shot, the flu shot in the left deltoid and was fine after that shot. He requested that the updated covid shot, Comirnaty, be given in the same arm. After giving the shot in the same arm, at least 1 inch apart from other shot, pt stated he was getting dizzy while sitting there. Immediately after, he passed out in the chair and his body started to freeze/tense up. I hesitate to call it a seizure but he was unresponsive for a good 20 to 30 seconds. I held him in place so that he wouldn't fall or hit his head. I tried to bring him around by calling his name. He didn't respond so I called to my tech to call 911. By the time the tech picked up the phone, patient was responding to me and I explained what happened as he was confused. He stated he was very nauseous and dizzy. I asked him easy questions to keep him talking and to gauge his responses. There was no slurring of speech and no abnormal movements after he came back. He refused the 911 call. I asked him if there was anyone he could call to come sit with him and monitor him for a while after he left. He called his fiance to come and pick him up. He did admit that about 10 years ago he had a similar reaction to getting a shot for an MRI. He stated that he had passed out and seized on the nurse that was helping him then. I told him not to get 2 shots at once anymore and to report the dizziness and fainting on his VAR in the future as he did not with us. He did end up vomiting a bit in our garbage can before he left. He also admitted that he did eat breakfast this morning. I did suggest that he follow up with his MD due to this incident.
