It started with me noticing frequent falls. I fell off a ladder and backwards off the porch. That is not typical for me. My next symptom was severe fatigue which I have probably had since July. It has become progressively worse. My gate or the way I walk is altered to like a slow shuffling walk with very short steps and I am kind of unsteady. I had cataract surgery about a year ago and I have not had good vision since then, but I believe that it has gotten worse since the vaccine. I have an appointment in December. I saw my primary care doctor who just blew it off to old age. Next, I went to a Pulmonary PA. I was having edema swelling in my ankles and feet. She ran a bunch of laboratory test and prescribed LASIX and potassium which I took for 2 weeks, and I had no additional issues with swelling. I went back to my primary care doctor, and he ordered an MRI of my brain on October 13,2022 which was normal. I went to my gastroenterologist who ordered additional lab work on October 31st which showed that elevated alkaline phosphatase. Everything else normal. I have an appointment with another doctor in internal medicine. I had a blood test run in the emergency room yesterday where my white blood cell count was elevated with ad lymphs. I was so weak yesterday that I could not walk. I left the emergency room because it was taking too long.

Around 3:00am-4:00am I woke up with extreme chills. And it felt as if my blood flowing was cold. I had a fever of 100.8 F .... My migraine came a few hours later after I slept for another two hours so around 630am and I was told not to take ibuprofen or aspirin. I used a cool rag to cover my eyes and that helped my head pounding as well as helped lower my fever a little bit it was 100 F around 8am .... Through out the day Friday it was as if my symptoms spiked and got worst before they got better. Lymph nodes on side of the injection site were very swollen and tender. My muscles and body was aching pretty badly. I felt very weak and extremely tired. I slept almost all of Friday away, it was hard to get out of bed and bc I was so weak and tired and slept so so long, I was not keeping myself hydrated and that def made it worse. My fever has remained between 100-102(at it's highest) ... Today is Saturday and around 3-4am on Sunday will make 48 hours since the symptoms began. The time is 7:45pm right now and again most of today I spent in bed. I do feel the symptoms are beginning to slowly diminish. Even the fact I am up and able to report all this is proof I am getting better bc just this morning I still could hardly get up from bed. I have showered and ate some soup and made myself drink plenty of water all of which helped me have relief from my symptoms. In conclusion the worst of it all I believe is over but it took me by surprise just how bad it has been. My advice would be plan at least a day or two to possibly have any symptoms or reactions and rest, and hydrate as much as anyone can, bc it seemed to work for me.

It was unknown if the patient had any adverse effects.

The patient experienced hair loss on an unspecified date. The Reporter stated that she had both doses of the Pfizer Covid vaccine with family. She stated that everything was fine but she had a reaction of hair loss. She didn't pay attention to when it started but did notice some hair loss, but didn't monitor it closely but is not sure if it was a week or two later. It lasted for 3 months after she took the vaccine. She stated the hair loss stopped and she is no longer experiencing this. She stated a family member saw on TV that people were experiencing this and she is not the only person to experience it. She is not sure what show or channel that was on though. She said, when the booster dose comes out in the fall, is it safer to go with Pfizer or another vaccine since she had this hair loss with this vaccine. The reporter asked if Pfizer has been able to find out what causes hair loss after the vaccine or fixed it to where that is not a symptom and response included Referred to the PI section 6 regarding this symptom not being reported in the clinical trials. No info on this symptom. There is no data available on the interchangeability of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine with other COVID-19 vaccines" Referred to the FAQ that a booster dose has not yet been authorized, and therefore we do not have additional recommendations regarding that dose. Referred her to her HCP for further discussion. The reporter stated Pfizer should investigate if it is safe to change companies for the covid vaccines. There needs to be a study. Especially if someone has had a reaction. In addition they need to look into hair loss, and see if there potentially is any ingredient in the vaccine that may cause this.  Follow-up attempts are needed; information about lot/batch number has been requested.

After my second does in May, my next period was extremely heavy and unusual.  I then experienced bleeding and cramping daily for almost 3 months with intermittant periods of heavy flow, then days of spotting.  Periods were 10 days, with only 8 days of reprieve with spotting.

I saw my OB and my primary and was told neither had heard of this happening to anyone...however, on my follow ups, they did say they were hearing more and more about this.  I was put on birth control and had a reaction to it, it also didn't help the issues at all.  Issue seems to have resolved 5 months later however I still am extremely tired despite being well rested.
