Their Stories

Palmar erythema, Bowel movement irregularity and Contusion

Forgot to mention that having irregular bowel movement and sometimes diarrhea after I got the vaccine.

Redness on my arm down the injection area and bruise in my upper left thigh( not from hurting myself)

Redness on hand and around wrist on both hands

Little Redness around the injection area

Just got the shot today

Was with a friend whose husband tested positive yesterday ( 15th night) without knowing.

Redness around palm and finger

Taking antihistamine for redness on my palm and fingers.It is working.

Soar throat, cough

As I was tested positive for COVID (my husband got the infection around 1 st july)had sore throat, runny nose and sneezing no fever though. Today I m feeling better. Sore throat and runny nose gone , took anti histamine but both eyes still hurts

Sinus pain, Arthritis and Eye pain

I did feel chills last evening but not today.

some abdominal discomfort and intestinal issues..just a day or so..

soreness across upper chest shoulder to shoulder with some nitetime sweats

increasing arthritis flares and pain in feet ankles and knees..wasn't this bad before vaccine especially in knees. was able to do things but it was difficult and painful and i paid for it come night time.

bouts of diaherra every few days..not sure if it's connected to vaccine..

In July after the 4th, had sinus pain, pain behind eye , couldn't put head on pillow eyes hurt, fatigue..went to doc. thought sinus infection put on doxycycline, didn't help then given medrol dose pack which relieves pressure..not sure what it was. office visit to doc then phone call after 10 days with no improvement on anyibiitic

Cataract operation, Diplopia and Myalgia

Slight soreness in the area of the injection.

I attribute these more to pausing my once daily naproxen then to the vaccine.

I ascribe the mild joint pain to forgoing the daily naproxen that I take for arthritis.

Attribute muscle and joint pain to recent hiking

This survey missed the 2-3 days immediately after my Moderna booster. I did have a reaction after that booster, with joint aches and feverishness beginning about 5 hours after the injection and lasting for about 24 hours.

Ear pruritus, Telemedicine and Feeling cold

Generalized itching of abdomen, neck, head, face, chest, arms< & ears

I developed itching 8hrs after the vaccine which became intense about 10.5 hrs after the vaccine. After about 24 hrs of benadryl around the clock it seems to have resolved. No rash. I called my GP for advise on the 2nd dose & am waiting to hear back from her. She was out of the office today so I was not seen.

The night of the vaccine I had itching & the next day I was very tired & cold. By noon the day after the vaccine I had a fever that rose to 100.9 at it's highest & lasted 24 hrs with headadche & body aches & fatigue-that caused me to miss a day of work

Hypertension, Palpitations and Lymphadenopathy

I am concerned that I did not actually get the vaccine. The person administering the dose said she thought it felt like an EMPTY SYRINGE. She checked with someone who said there were temp types of syringes being used that day and one had less resistance than the other, but the fact that I had NO signs (no soreness of the arm) makes me question. I have tried to follow up with the CDC, and local public health organizations as well as my doctor, but no one seems to have an answer as to whether I should attempt to get another dose.

heart palpitations (sensation of missing an occasional beat). Evaluated by cardiologist, added a second blood pressure med for the preventricular contractions.

Medicare check suggests peripheral neuropathy. I have no symptoms, so not sure this isn't some strange false positive, but following up with my PCP in a month or so.

swollen lymph node, but on the side I got the flu vaccine not the side I got the Covid vaccine.

very high blood pressure.

Skin tightness, Rash papular and Skin warm

Only side effect was extreme muscle pain at injection site for two full days. As of day 3, pain receded the normal mild pain expected from an intramuscular injection.

Strangely, after two days of pain at the injection site, the pain slacked off and gradually disappeared...but now its back. Not as painful as at first, more like moderate. And now there is a round red mark, about the size of a dime. Weird that it would go completely away and then come back a week later. But no other side effects, everything else is fine.

Symptoms much better than yesterday. As of right now (3P CST), temp has dropped to 96.3F (mine normally runs low - average 95F), so feeling much better.

Rash extends from the immediate injection site to almost the entir front of the upper arm. Area is bright red, and is slightly raised as a whole. Skin is smooth, not bumpy, feels warm and slightly tight to the touch. Moderately itchy, but not painful.

Dont know if its vaccine related, but I am experiencing constipation since the injection. this is not at all normal for me, And my diet hasnt changed, except that I didnt eat at all the day following the shot and have been eating lightly since the fever went away, so Im guessing it IS related. I no longer have any abdominal pain, but def have discomfort.

Still constipated, ugh.

Constipation that started one day post 2nd vax continues, lessening only slightly. There has been no change in diet or activity level (activity increased after fever dissipated). Constipation is VERY rare for me. No related cause other than vax.
