Fever of 101, chills, muscle aches all over, joint pain all over. Reactions started 12 hours after injection and lasted 12 hours. 6 hours in  I took advil.   The following day my arms were sore.
Wednesday, I fell asleep soon after I got home. I had a couple of hours of extremely deep sleep. (In retrospect, this makes perfect sense because neurological stress does that to me.) When I was waking up, I realized that I had the sensation of hot. I didn't have a fever or a sunburn. Nonetheless, the nerves near the skin for much of my arms, legs, and part of my torso were saying, 'Hot'. They were all normal body temp when I checked with my hand. On Thursday, the sense of 'hot' continued. The sensation was morphing from 'hot' to the sore feeling one gets from a sunburn. The truth didn't match the sensation. There is no skin damage. Touching it does not aggravate the soreness. As I type on Sunday, my inner thighs have a slightly lesser version of both 'hot' and sore. This is also true of my arms, rest of my legs, and other parts of my body to a lesser extent.  In light of health issues noted above... The sensations were the same between right and left. My glucose was normal a couple hours before the shot and when I checked soon after waking.

Information has been received from a registered nurse concerning a 12 month old patient who was vaccinated with a dose of varicella virus vaccine live.

Exceptionally heavy menstruation for two cycles after the administration of the first and second dose of the Moderna covid vaccine.    I experienced an exceptionally heavy menstrual flow two weeks after the first Moderna covid vaccine (reported to VAERS).  After the second vaccine I again experienced two more cycles of extremely heavy menstural flow. The flow was notable because it was as heavy or heavier at times than post-partum  bleeding after having two completely natural births.  Both cycles were so heavy they interfered with my daily activities including work. This have never happened to me before in the preceding 35 years of menstruation.   I recently completed a third menses which was typical and normal for me.  Please do not insult me by attributing heavy menses to ?psychological effects? of receiving the Moderna covid vaccine. I am not an anxious, stressed person, I do not have a needle phobia, I fully expected to be just fine after the vaccine, and I received it in a comfortable, efficiently run, familiar location accompanied by my loving, supportive husband who also received the vaccine.    This is a genuine, unaknowledged side effect that needs further study. It is exceedingly embarrassing to bleed though my clothing at work because heavy menses was unexpected. I had to go home to change and had to inform my (male) superior of my need. Sure wish this would be part of the educational piece of side effects!

No information was received regarding the patient's past medical history, concurrent conditions, or concomitant medication. On an unknown date in 2018, the patient was inoculated with the ZOSTAVAX vaccine, at a pharmacy, as recommended for routine adult health maintenance for the prevention of shingles (lot number, dosage and route of administration not provided).
