Patient received all Moderna COVID-19 shots and boosters available from the onset of disease prior to receiving the Pfizer booster shot. The symptoms went away within 36 to 48 hours after receiving each of the Moderna shot.  Patient recently received fourth dose with Pfizer booster shot on 02-Oct-2023 to right arm or shoulder with NDC 00069239210 and developed similar symptoms within 24 hours, same as that developed with Moderna shots. The symptoms did not go away after Pfizer shot. As of 02-Jan-2024, the symptoms were still ongoing. Three months to the day of Pfizer shot, the symptoms were still ongoing. During some days, the symptoms were mild and, on some days, the symptoms were moderate to severe. During some days, the patient had them all and on some days, the patient only had one of the symptoms. The headaches and dizziness were constant and the worst. Prior to the Pfizer booster shot, the patient rarely had headaches and it might be twice in a year. Patient had a headache of varying severity every day since the booster Pfizer shot on 2nd October.  Patient had a prescription for arthritis, meloxicam (anti-inflammatory) that the patient had been taking regularly since before the hip replacement surgery on 12-Sep-2022. Since receiving the Pfizer booster shot on 2nd October, the patient had been unable to take the meloxicam because it aggravated the symptoms. As a matter of fact, the patient could not take any NSAID anti-inflammatory drugs that included Advil, Aleve or Celebrex because they made the symptoms worse. Also the orthopedist who had replaced the patient's left hip stated that the patient's right hip also needs to be replaced. So, not only did the patient had constant symptoms associated with the booster dose but the patient also had to deal with right hip pain and arthritis without medications. The physician was aware of all of this and had prescribed Tramadol to deal with the pain after Pfizer shot.  If the headaches did not go away, the physician was going to schedule a brain MRI and a blood panel done on 27-Dec-2023 showed no abnormalities. The patient tested negative for COVID-19 through all of this. The patient wished that the patient never had got the booster dose and the patient's life had turned upside down and the patient had to deal with some sort of pain everyday.
