Symptom narrative

Ministroke; Series of mini strokes; This is a spontaneous report received from a Consumer or other non HCP, Program ID. A 74-year-old female patient received BNT162b2 omi xbb.1.5 (COMIRNATY (2023-2024 FORMULA)), on 27Sep2023 as dose 1 (toppac); single (Lot number: HG4680) at the age of 74 years intramuscular, in left arm for covid-19 immunisation. The patient's relevant medical history included: "Myasthenia gravis", start date: 2010 (unspecified if ongoing), notes: Myasthenia gravis. The patient used to take another medication years ago, but she it stopped at around 2016. There is no family history of that at all. Concomitant medication(s) included: PYRIDOSTIGMINE oral taken for myasthenia gravis, start date: 2010 (ongoing). The patient also took other concomitant therapy. Vaccination history included: Covid-19 vaccine (DOSE 1), for Covid-19 Immunization; Covid-19 vaccine (DOSE 2), for Covid-19 Immunization; Covid-19 vaccine (DOSE 3 (BOOSTER), Manufacturer Unknown), for Covid-19 Immunization; Covid-19 vaccine (DOSE 4 (BOOSTER), Manufacturer Unknown), for Covid-19 Immunization; Covid-19 vaccine (DOSE 5 (BOOSTER), Manufacturer Unknown), for Covid-19 Immunization. After her sixth vaccination, on Oct2023, she had a few mini strokes and that she was in the hospital and she had her vaccine three weeks prior to having her stroke and the Doctor said that, that is the only thing that they could think of that she had a out of the normal 'wood scout' vaccine. She was not in the hospital right now. The patient was actually always so pretty careful when she get her vaccinations to pay attention to what her symptoms are because sometime she have. Patient was no longer experiencing the event. It went away. Therapeutic measures were not taken as a result of transient ischaemic attack. They did a great many test on her. She had her heart and lungs checked. In fact, patient was wearing a cardiac monitor which is never showed any indication or problems and she have never had that happen since, but her neurologist who treats her for the myasthenia gravis told her not to take the Covid vaccines anymore. So, she haven't gotten them since then.
