I have previously reacted to this vaccine with my throat feeling a little tight from the moment of injection; a strange taste in my mouth immediately; This is a spontaneous report received from a Consumer or other non HCP. A 41-year-old female patient (not pregnant) received BNT162b2 (BNT162B2 NOS), as dose number unknown, single (Batch/Lot number: unknown) for covid-19 immunisation. The patient's relevant medical history included: "Asthma" (unspecified if ongoing); "fibromyalgia" (unspecified if ongoing); "hypogammaglobulonemia" (unspecified if ongoing); "light-chain disease" (unspecified if ongoing); "hemochromatosis" (unspecified if ongoing); "Known allergies: Penicillin" (unspecified if ongoing); "Known allergies: sulfa" (unspecified if ongoing); "Known allergies: several plants" (unspecified if ongoing); "Known allergies: oral allergy syndrome for related foods" (unspecified if ongoing), notes: Known allergies: oral allergy syndrome for related foods; "immunocompromised" (unspecified if ongoing). The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. Past drug history included: Codeine, reaction(s): "Known allergies: codeine"; Levaquin, reaction(s): "Known allergies: levaquin". The following information was reported: THROAT TIGHTNESS (non-serious), outcome "unknown", described as "I have previously reacted to this vaccine with my throat feeling a little tight from the moment of injection"; DYSGEUSIA (non-serious), outcome "unknown", described as "a strange taste in my mouth immediately". Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of throat tightness, dysgeusia. Clinical course: The patient have previously reacted to this vaccine with her throat feeling a little tight from the moment of injection. She got a strange taste in her mouth immediately and then an uncomfortable tightness that relaxed after about 15 minutes but remained for a few hours to a lesser degree. During this last dose, her throat almost seized up completely. She was always carrying an extra strength Benadryl and an epinephrine auto-injector, which no doubt saved her life that day. She was writing to try and discover what in this vaccine was causing her to react this way. She was immunocompromised and an asthmatic who would greatly benefit by continuing to take it, but at this point, the reactions have become too dangerous to risk. She never had COVID before despite being around infected people. The information on the batch/lot number for BNT162b2 will be requested and submitted if and when received.; Sender's Comments: Linked Report(s) : US-PFIZER INC-202500029326 same patient/product/events; different dose;
