Additional information: The patient stated that he was fully vaccinated with the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, primary series (2 doses) and a booster. With each dose he experienced long-lasting shoulder and bicep pain, that have been going on since the first dose (22Jun2021). The patient went to see his doctor for a check-up and everything seemed to be normal. The only difference in his life was the vaccine. The patient was not working out, he was not doing exercise. The patient was not saying it was the vaccine, but that was the only different thing in his life. The pain was killing him on both sides. The patient can't even reach his back or something behind him. The patient felt fine but other than that he was stuck with sore arms. The patient would like to know if other people have reported similar symptoms. The patient stated it was both biceps and shoulders that were painful and it was right more than left. The patient stated he doesn't know what to do, his doctor can't seem to find any issues and every test came up good. The patient was asking if there was something that can be done and if other people were having same issues, was there a treatment or something that can be used that might help. The patient stated what was strange was that shortly after his 1st dose his arm started to hurt, then after his 2nd dose that arm started to hurt and now with the booster the pain was more intense, it's really like his doctor though he might have a rotator cuff injury and had that checked and he doesn't. He doesn't work out or anything and he doesn't play tennis or bike. The patient stated he just had back surgery. The patient stated that it's just the same constant pain, like if he is sitting, or standing or doing anything normal it's fine but if he has to pick up anything he is in major pain. Stated if he reaches behind his back to scratch he can't, his muscles and tendons don't move. Stated if he is sitting in his personal car, he's a driver, and reaches behind his seat for his big bottle of water with his right arm he can barely get his arm back to him let alone with the water. Stated it is major pain that has never gone away. Stated he was on Atorvastatin 80mg, took 1 tablet by mouth each day he thinks for high cholesterol. Stated he read side effects on all his drugs and this one says joint pain and upper bicep big arm muscle pain so that's so weird how it can bother specific muscles. The patient stated he has been off this medication for 3 weeks to see if the pain subsides and it hasn't, stated he has not started taking it again. Stated that nothing has changed. Stated he has been on this a year and a half to two years and was changed from another statin, Simvastatin. The patient provided that he supposedly had Covid in Dec2019, he was told he had the virus and he was very tired that was his only symptom. Caller states he didn't believe them as he never gets sick.   Follow-Up: Follow-up attempts are completed. No further information is expected.
