Throat closing sensation; Severe runny nose; Changes in voice; Fatigue; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer, the patient. A 34-year-old male patient received the first dose of BNT162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE; Lot Number: EW0164) via an unspecified route of administration in the right arm on 17Apr2021 at 14:00 (at the age of 34-years-old) as a single dose for COVID-19 immunisation.

Janssen Covid-19 Vaccine EUA 3/13/21 - pain at injection site, brief dizziness. Severe fatigue  in the afternoon, then chills and shaking. Slight headache and body ache (back) No fever. Took Tylenol and went to bed at 8pm. 3/14/21 - minor headache, severe fatigue continued. Slept for two hours during day and rested. 3/15/21 - felt pretty much back to normal
Patient complained that her heart rate went up and she went to emergency room and was high for 3 weeks
The day after my booster, I had upper arm muscle pain as expected.  However I also had intense joint pain in the shoulder joint that radiated down my entire arm, limiting my range of motion and ability to lift / carry anything in that hand and arm.  This pain felt like a pinched nerve pain.  At the same time, pain also radiated into my upper left chest that felt muscular in nature, like a pulled muscle or something.  Neither was present before the booster and both developed the day after the booster.  All this lasted about a week before it improved any.  While it has mostly improved, even now, 2 months out from the booster, the shoulder joint pain, upper arm muscle pain, and chest muscle pain will recur occasionally at varying degrees of discomfort and I am certain it is booster related.  Again, none of this was present before the booster and was full onset the day after the booster.  I did not report this to my MD or to the Walgreens that administered the vaccine as I do not feel that either could do anything to remedy the issue.  Of note, the pharmacist that gave me the shot was very adamant about not using ice / ice pack to soothe the injection site of any discomfort because it would "ruin the shot."  This is in direct contrast to what I have since read about treatment of injection site discomfort.  But I followed her directions in case she knew something more than what I was reading about it.  I also do not expect the CDC to acknowledge this as a legit experience as the CDC has proven to not be very transparent, forthcoming, and reliable with the truth and is in the pocket of the liberal administration.  Also of note, I had "COVID arm" after the first vaccine, which I also reported.  It was in the same arm, my non-dominant arm.  My second shot was in the opposite arm as my first arm site was still recovering from COVID arm reaction to the first shot.  These reactions are in my opinion extreme and not natural.  I have had many vaccines in my life and never had anything like this.  2 out of the 3 COVID vaccines I have had, all Pfizer, created significant physical reactions to the injection arm that lingered for some time.  As far as I am concerned, this history of repeated adverse reactions exclude me from any future COVID vaccines or boosters because I cannot risk worsening reactions in the future.
1.5 hours after receiving vaccines, had an episode of syncope at a store. EMS/911 transported him to hospital. Complaints of decreased sensation in legs, feeling weak, severe headache.

He developed a moderate/high fever and later a rash all over his body from the MMR vaccine.  He is very sleepy, fussy, and at times has no interest in eating.This is a second report because I just realized that my son had additional symptoms that I believe are connected to his reaction.

My son had a high fever for 4 days, he has been crying and fussy for 5 days, unable to sleep and to get comfortable, has a runny nose and cough, a rash that looks like measles all over his body, and has vomited twice. Symptoms continue and have not yet ended. I have pictures of the rash if anyone is interested in veiwing them.
