Symptom narrative

Lightheadedness and dizziness at time of vaccination around 2:30am. Around 3:45am I noticed swelling of my right forearm and upper arm with tingling in my fingertips. This was accompanied with various types of pain in the arm including burning pain, pressure pain, and an aching pain in and around the elbow. I did NOT have any itching, difficulty breathing, or color changes. No medications were given during emergency department visit, but I was prescribed a 6-day supply of methylprednisone. No outcome available yet as this occurred yesterday and I still have symptoms.
