A few weeks after my first vaccine (around 1/26/21), I developed the rash which the CDC has now informed be is being called COVID arm (red dots on extremities, somewhat itchy, spread out and not clustered). Please note this was after my first dose (to which I also had a pretty extreme reaction and was quite sick for a couple days, but I had virtually No reaction to my second vaccine). I want to report that now, in May, several months after my vaccine course completion, I am again experiencing COVID arm. These are the same dots, in virtually the same places on my body. This just started today. I simply want to report that this appears to be a recurring reaction. Today is only the first day I?m finding the dots (spreading slowly). I will see my SAME doctor tomorrow which I saw in January for the rash originally. I have also documented the rash day by day through photographs which I?m happy to share for the purpose of research. I?m also happy to release my notes from my doctor?s visits if they are requested.
RN administered 0.5 mL of the COVID-19 vaccine instead of 0.3 mL. No adverse reaction was reported.

little soreness in her arm.; This is a spontaneous report from a non-contactable consumer (patient). A female patient of an unspecified age received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), dose 1 via an unspecified route of administration on 01Mar2021 (Batch/Lot number was not reported) as DOSE 1, SINGLE for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included pancreatic carcinoma (she has pancreatic cancer and gets abdominal CT scans every 3 months). The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. Patient received her first Pfizer Covid vaccine yesterday and felt fine except for a little soreness in her arm on an unspecified date with outcome of unknown. Patient was scheduled to receive her second vaccination in 3 weeks but has a CT scan scheduled for 2 days after this second vaccination. The patient underwent lab tests and procedures which included computerised tomogram pancreas: unknown results on unknown date (she has pancreatic cancer and gets abdominal CT scans every 3 months). No follow-up attempts are possible; information about lot/batch number cannot be obtained. No further information is expected.
Initially: immediate pain. Felt like nurse buried the needle. Felt like fire when vaccine was injected. Pain steadily worsened throughout the evening and night despite my taking naproxen and ibuprofen. In the morning, trying to get ready for work, I literally could not move my arm w/o crying, could not get dressed or lift my arm above my head. I was forced to call off work that day because of the excruciating pain. Since I am an RT at a small. I contacted the Dr's office that day to explain the situation. They were not overly concerned once I told them my arm was not red, swollen, or hot. I was advised to ice the area and come back to the office if it didn't get any better. I don't know the lot # or manufacturer. This has never happened to me before with any type of vaccine. One thing I did notice is that there was much more dried blood on the bandage when I removed it, than with my other previous vaccine (normally just a speck if any at all). This bandage was almost totally saturated - the site bled quite a bit. As I write this my arm feels better, but still tender and weak. I sought advice from a medical professional at my job who think she may have hit my nerve, and/or the vac. itself actually attacked my muscle tissue. The injection site is still bruised. I still have soreness if I use this arm for anything strenuous (I am right handed so always get vaccinated in my left arm). I can honestly say this was the worst pain I've ever experienced in my life next to childbirth.
A non-serious spontaneous report of flu like symptoms has been received from a mother concerning her 14-year-old daughter, subsequent to H1N1. The patient's medical history and concomitant medication were not reported. On 17-Oct-2009, the patient received H1N1.

She developed redness in the area of the vaccine that extended into a large area on the right upper arm. She was seen at the pharmacy and advised to do warm compress to the area. There has been dramatic improvement. She still has area of redness directly around the site of the vaccination. She has a hematoma in the location of the influenza vaccination on the right arm.
Had arm swelling, nausea and diarrhea and vomiting onset a few hours after vaccine given.  Seen in emergency room and given BENADRYL, COMPAZINE, Imodium and MOTRIN, then discharged.
On April 23, 2012, staff from epidemiological conference of the hospital called the office of the nurse to notify that the patient had been hospitalized since Sunday with cellulitis in the right arm and started to show symptoms since she was vaccinated.
A 26 year old female became pregnant approximately 8 months following receipt of Lymerix. The pt reported that she had no significant medical history.

1. The day after my vaccination, I had fevers ranging from 99 to 104.7 in addition to the typical symptoms (achiness, tiredness).  2. Approximately 1.5 months after receiving the vaccine I began noticing a strange skin condition on my legs--raised and painful pus-filled blisters that were extremely itchy.   After appearing, they took about 10 days to subside and left hyperpigmentation.  I visited the Urgent Care clinic to ask about the bumps.  I was told they were herpetiformis dermatitis and caused by an autoimmune disorder.  I was told that quitting eating gluten products may help.  I had never been allergic or sensitive to gluten before. Since that time, the bumps have been continuously reoccurring and I have treated new outbreaks with steroid cream.  The next day I went back to the doctor's office to have a blood test to rule out thyroid disease and type 1 diabetes.  The day after that, I received a call from my regular doctor who wanted to see the blisters in person.
about 15 hours post-shot, felt achey.  For the next 8 hours I had muscle and joint aches. I felt relief when I slept, therefore I was in bed all day resting. My head was a bit foggy, I couldn?t do too much. I took an advil in the afternoon, and I was fine by the evening.

In 2016 I had a Shingles shot and within two days, had a rash on the front and back of my right torso. It lasted for 2.5 months. My MD recommended the Shingrix shot and although it is not a live vaccine, I received it on Sunday, Oct 9/Day 1.  Two days following a reaction started. Tuesday/Day 3:  "Mosquite bite-size" red spots appear on arm near injection site---which still hurt a lot. An hour later a rash appeared on my right torso in front and back. This affected my vocal cords---which became rasp and lowered, and affected my swallowing. (Couldn't get food down without it sticking.)  Overnight I couldn't sleep my side was so itchy. Wednesday/Day 4: Rash still on torso; new rash on chest and incredibly itchy.  Still issue with vocal cords.  By that evening, my arm still hurt, but the red spots were disappearing. Thursday/Day 5:  I can FEEL the rash on my side but the redness has gone away. It's still itchy but I try not to scratch.  My chest is not red BUT it is very bumpy like sandpaper. My vocal cords still are off---with rough, hoarse, lower tone.  In the evening both forearms broke out with a rash. Friday/Day 6---is when I'm writing this.  Note: The other shot I had at the same time was flu. I just don't know what kind.  The only reaction to my long list of immunizations I've had since living overseas since childhood---has been Shingles.

The flu vaccine (regular flu not H1N1) was given in patient's left arm.  When giving him a bath the next evening I noticed it was red, hot, and swollen.  The redness extended from his shoulder to his elbow.  He had a fever of 101 degrees.  We called our family doctor and he didn't not think we needed to seek treatment at that time.  We gave patient Ibuprofen and put cold compresses on his arm.  We drew an outline around the redness and by the next day the redness had increased.  We went to see Dr.  He said the redness and swelling was a reaction to the flu vaacine and not an infection.  He said it was a severe reaction and advised us not to get patient any more flu vaccinations.  On 10-1-09 we took patient to see an allergist.  He also agreed it was a reaction and not an infection.  He said it was a pretty severe local reaction.  He was puzzled by the delayed onset of the reaction and the fact that patient had had several flu vaccines before with no ill effects.  He did scratch tests to test for allergies to eggs and the flu vaccine.  They were negative.  He also did a patch test which contained the flu vaccine and was left on patient's back for 4 days.  No reaction occured.  Patient was on Zyrtec all during this time.

Received vaccine on 1/4. Woke on 1/5 with cold sweats and painful diarrhea. Called Covi hotline. Instructed to stay home form work until symptoms improved.
4 days after the vaccine, I had EXCRUCIATING nerve pain, starting at the upper vertabrae and  shooting down both arms to fingertips. Sometimes all the way down my back and the back of my legs.  I vomited all day, had a low fever which  lasted for 24 hours, then the pain and fever subsided. Still have nausea but no more vomiting .  I went to a doctor  after that, he also thinks it was a reaction..  On the 7th day, a purple splotchy rash showed on my skin and my hands started swelling up at night, so painful I couldn't even pull up the sheet.  The hand swelling goes down during the day and comes back at night.  I plan to get an antibody test  on  Feb. 26.  I am 98% certain that I had COVID in July, it was precisely the same symptoms and I had with the vaccine.  No treatment, just resting tilll it's over.  I am almost 80% better now, but not completely. I worry that I will never get back to 100%, it's been  11 days now.
