She is calling to inform Pfizer she feels they should put this on the list of side effects so patients can have the option of receiving the Pfizer vaccine or not.  She went to a specialist and the doctor stated he has seen several patients that this has happened to. She would like to speak with someone about this. She is in good health and is on a low dose blood pressure medication (she would not give name of medication). Patient was a consumer who received the Pfizer Covid 19 Vaccine dose one on 30Mar2021.

Reports the tinnitus, nausea and vertigo kind of feelings have been the same since last Tuesday. Caller states she has so many KN95, so many masks, because her husband is the superintendent.  The KN95 masks are all they have worn for the past year.  Inquires if caller should still be wearing KN95 mask even after being vaccinated. Caller states she is just making conversation, she uses KN95 masks all the time, the mask question has nothing to do with what the caller is reporting.
