Starting about 10 minutes after receiving the vaccine, I experienced "brain fog", pressure in my head and ears, and chest tightness. These all resolved after one week. It wasn't until 22 days later that the major adverse event started. I woke up from a nap and felt severe chest pain/tightness, and all the symptoms of a heart attack: such as lightheadedness, dizziness, nausea/vomitting, shortness of breath, left arm and shoulder pain, brain fog and feeling chilled but sweating. I called the nurses line at local hospital and they told me to take 2 aspirin and call 911. The EMTs did a EKG on site and determined I was not having a heart attack, but rather tachycardia, and to follow up at the ER. When I went, they did an ECG there and confirmed normal heart rhythm with tachycardia. They treated me with Zofran for nausea and discharged me. Since then, I have been following with my PCP, and was unable to get a cardiologist until December. Since starting to see them, I have received a heart ultrasound and am currently wearing a heart monitor to this day. I still am experiencing the tachycardia.

Last weekend on Sunday morning (April 25th), I received my second shot of Pfizer vaccine at 9am.  My body started to show some side effects on the evening of Sunday. I felt super cold around 10 pm and at the same time, I had a fever, too. I went to bed early that night (around 10:30 pm) and since I was super cold, I had 3-4 blankets on me when I was on my bed. Suddenly, at 1 am, I woke up due to a very strange noise in my head (a very low-volume noise of knocking on the door every 10 seconds!! I think it was only something in my mind). Since I couldn't sleep because of that low artificial noise, I decided to go to the bathroom at around 1:10 am (My bode was also in lots of pain at that time). When I started to walk, I realized that something is wrong with my body. When I peed and stood up to get back to my bed, I noticed that I'm losing control! Therefore, I hit the bathroom door to wake up my girlfriend, and then I fainted! (I can't remember anything for about 30 seconds here). My girlfriend told me that when I fainted, one of my eyeballs was upward and the other was downward (like zombies!!). She started to freak out and called her mom, but once they started talking, I woke up. My body was soaking wet when I woke up and I was in lots of pain. I asked her to help me to lay down on the ground. After 10 minutes, that my sweats were gone, I started feeling cold and asked her to give me a blanket. I couldn't sleep for about 2-3 hours after I fainted, but I was feeling better (I was much better than the time before fainting). On Monday afternoon, I called the health center and told them my side effects. They strongly recommended visiting ER ASAP since the symptoms that I described were severe side effects of Pfizer. Therefore, I went to ER on Monday (April 26th) to see what?s the issue. Hopefully, after spending 3-4 hours there, and passing some tests, the results did not show anything wrong with my body, but just the side effects of the vaccine.
