Symptom narrative

Moderate bilateral edema, swelling and redness of the upper eyelid and undereyes. Occurred the next morning after vaccination at 5pm the previous day, has not resolved at this time at 8:30pm. This reaction also occurred during previous COVID vaccinations with the Moderna vaccine, with the initial series in April of 2021 and May of 2021 and a booster in January of 2022. I do have under-eye dermal filler and am unsure if that is playing a role, but this reaction has been consistent and predictable. In the past it has resolved without incident after a few weeks, although it s uncomfortable. So I didn t think to report at that time. I have no other symptoms of any kind of allergic reaction and have no known allergies. I can?t know if the other vaccines played a role, I?m going off of my history but I do know this reaction does not occur with the flu vaccine.
