Symptom narrative

Patient was given a flu shot in his left arm followed immediately by his first gardasil shot in the same arm (patient was to get two more vaccines in his other arm but did not get them due to the event). Two seconds after getting the gardasil, the patient said "Give me a minute" - He then appeared to be passing out followed by tense muscle contractions and also shouted a few words. He then raised his head back against the wall with his arms stretched out in front of him. His muscles contracted and it appeared he was not breathing for a few seconds. Management was called and after about a minute the patient returned to normal. Afterwards he threw up several times. We offered him water and monitored him for another 15 minutes. Patient insisted he has had episodes in the past (but not in the last 10 years) and that he was fine to go home. I called the patient 6 hours later. Patient said he was having trouble sleeping because he felt like he was still having a nervous system reaction causing him to stop breathing when he was sleeping. Patient still did not want to go to the Dr.
