| FLU3 | INFLUENZA (SEASONAL) (FLUCELVAX) | SEQIRUS, INC. | 1 | 946626 | IM / RA |
pt had some dryness in mouth and some difficulty in swallowing, went to dr on 2/13/25 and was diagnosed with myasthenia gravis and given some steroids. Symptoms improved some, but didn't resolve completely. At end of March pt had worsening symptoms, went back to dr for more steroids, and ended up going to the ER around 3/31/25. Was released from hospital to rehab, and now back home. Neither patient or doctor indicated that they thought his myasthenia gravis was an adverse reaction to the flu shot, but wanted to report it. Pt seemed to feel that his previous illness, meds, etc. made his immune system go haywire and may have initiated the the myasthenia gravis episode.
pt was sick and took doxycycline 100mg twice daily for 7 days starting 1/15/25. Was not running a fever on day of vaccine, but still had a lingering cough.
