This was my 2nd dose so I was a bit more prepared but worried about how I'd feel again after the shot. This time right after I got it, I started taking 2 ADVIL every 6 hrs. It helped a tiny bit. I started getting aching and tired late in day but once again in the middle of the night felt horrible and still when I got up at 8 a.m. I had to go back to bed for several more hours to shake it off but felt better after lunch. The 1st shot caused horrible shivering, headache, weakness, nausea, muscle aches, then sweating. I could hardly walk from bed to bathroom when I thought I was going to puke. Some muscles hurt so much it felt like I had injuries and both times a sensitive tooth I had felt like a toothache for a day but both times went away. Then like after 1st shot I'm having headaches days after. I don't think I'd ever get this again if I was told I needed more shots. Luckily I did both shots when I didn't have to work the next day or I'd have to call in sick.

This spontaneous report was received from a Registered Nurse, concerning a patient of unknown age and gender. No information was provided regarding the patient's medical history, concurrent conditions or concomitant medications.

The vaccine had not had any previous temperature excursions. There was no adverse effect reported. No product quality complaint was involved. This is one of several reports received from the same reporter.; Sender's Comments: US-009507513-1810USA012270: US-009507513-1810USA012268: US-009507513-1810USA012082:
PATIENT PRESENTS WITH NAUSEA, VOMITING, DIZZINESS AND WEAKNESS.
It started out with a head, general body aches, nausea, dry cough, my taste was affected and very fatigued. These symptoms lasted for two days and then I tested and was positive for COVID-19. I then reached out to my doctor. I was then prescribed PAXLOVID and prednisone, I took this medicine and it helped. The headaches and nausea helped but the fatigue and loss of taste lingered for some time.
Approximately 15 hours after vaccination pt awakened with profuse facial sweating, headache, neck pain and left posterior tongue swelling that did not impair breathing.  She took Tylenol and went back to sleep and symptoms were improved when she woke up.  Then 48 hours after vaccination, she developed hives on her left upper outer arm.  She has treated them with topical Calazyme.  The redness is improving, but they are still raised.
I was given the Covid-19 vaccine as usual. This was my fourth vaccine two being from pfizer and this was the second from Moderna. I had no adverse reaction at the time. 6 days later I was driving and had chest pain. they subsided after 20 minutes but came back later in the afternoon. I went to the hospital, it was determined I had a spontaneous pneumothorax of the left lung.  Numerous Xrays, blood work, and a chest tube were placed for 3 days. I Have no idea if this was a result of an adverse reaction but think it is odd that this would happen when I have no known lung history, am not a smoker,  I run 3 miles a few times a week. I recently graduated from the police academy without any lung issues and now my lung randomly collapses on the same side of the body that I received the vaccine.
