Symptom narrative

Received PCV21 on 6/16/25. She had some redness and swelling of the injection site following the vaccination. She developed fevers, chills, headaches, and nausea the following day. On 6/18, she developed a red, blotchy rash on her neck and chest. The rash was not itchy or painful. On 6/19, the red, blotchy rash spread to her upper abdomen and to the medial aspect of her left arm. By 6/21, the rash on her neck and trunk resolved but she woke up with facial flushing that felt similar to a sunburn. Denies any recent sun exposure. Reports that her lips also started to feel tingly intermittently. Denied any lip, tongue, or throat swelling. Denies any chest pain, shortness of breath, or difficulty breathing. On 6/22, the rash on her left arm became raised, "welty", itchy, and sore. Still endorses some intermittent nausea, cheek flushing, and intermittent lip tingling but symptoms are improving. Other symptoms have resolved.
