The coughing was the only symptom that stayed the other symptoms left. It was a metallic taste in my mouth.
Muscle soreness through the shoulders right to left. Occasional tightness through my eyes, fatigue.  Muscle soreness and fatigue lasted 2 days. The vision/ headache tightness was very subtle almost not worth mention.
I am a nurse and I received the Pfizer vaccine on 12/26 at 1030am. I do have a history of food and outdoor allergies. I once got hives on my back from the flu shot, but since have been fine with it if I take Benadryl before it. About an hour after the vaccine, I felt itchy on my upper half of my body. I took a Benadryl without relief. I had a 100.1 fever that afternoon so I took another Benadryl and ibuprofen. It broke my fever, but the itching continued. I also had a couple of hives and a red blotchy rash over my body. I  took a hydroxyzine and was able to sleep that night. The next morning I once again felt flushed and itchy. I worked and came home to the same rash, almost mottled looking all over my body. I  took a Benadryl and ibuprofen and woke up early this morning itching again. As I was driving into work today (Monday), I noticed my heart fluttering and having palpitations. This continued throughout the morning. My skin rash is still red like I have a bad sunburn all over and is itchy with some red spots. I went to the ER to get checked out. My ekg was normal. They advised me that this is an allergic reaction to the vaccine and to continue 50mg Benadryl q6h for a couple more days and to see a PCP for follow up if it?s not better. I never had respiratory issues or swelling. I will continue to monitor symptoms and reaction.

Severe pain in left arm at injection site, with pain radiating down left arm, tingling in fingers, also radiating up into shoulder and neck up to base of skull. Arm seems swollen and tender to touch. Severe debilitating pain disturbs my sleep as well as my normal daily activities including work. Went to my doctor after 14 days of pain that continued to get worse. He agreed it was from the flu shot and thought that it could be some kind of an allergic reaction or nerve damage from the needle. Also my blood pressure was sky high. 180 over 100. Very unusual for me since I always read low, usually around 120 over 70. He prescribed to me a prescription of prednisone for 12 days. He also put me on a blood pressure pill.
