Nearly exactly 24hrs after receiving the first (and only received) Moderna vaccine I suddenly felt incredible chest pain which originated as a dull ache in my left chest and quickly escalated to an immense sharper pain that radiated to my left shoulder and down my left arm. Then some numbness in that arm. I was vaccinated in my right arm. Some breathlessness likely from the pain and surprise itself. Sweating. Went to urgent care nearby and pain resolved within 15mins but would ache periodically. EKG was reportedly normal but my blood pressure was borderline hypertensive which for me is incredibly high and I?ve never seen that before with my vitals. Doctor urged me to go to the emergency dept for troponin labs which along with EKG and chest X-ray were insignificant. I?ve been undergoing cardiac work up sense, all checking out. I have a history of undiagnosed chest pain snd multiple workups in my medical history but this was like nothing I?ve ever experienced. The pain was dull and aching and quickly became debilitating. I?ve never been so scared. The ED physician did not know to order certain blood tests to check for inflammation since the myocarditis and pericarditis incidents were noted over a month since the event. I am too afraid to obtain the second dose. No physician this far, except the one I saw in urgent care will dare hear that this was a result of the vaccination but without a doubt, it was. I know my body. This was something else.

To start with, I was never alergic to anything in my life until they adminestired that flu shot that they told me I had to have to keep on working, although I told them that my whole family was alergic to flu shots and I did not want to take this shot. I break out in uticaria several times a day to the point that it is itching and burning so bad that I can barely stand it. I went to a Doctor and he said the flu shot had nothing to do with the hives that it was in my genetic background. So I have never went to another Doctor again. The shot was given in the year 2000, I have not been able to work since. My skin breaks out so bad when I get a bug bite or any kind of metal close to my skin. For the first two years, if I even got close to an orange I would break out in hives, or apples or bananas, could not eat eggs for over four years,
