Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of arthritis, arthralgia. Additional Information: She was calling the covid shot. She had the covid shot last week probably was Wednesday or Thursday then states maybe it was Thursday and she did not have a reaction the first day, had no reaction. Her arm was not sore like normal and she has had all of the Pfizer shots and her arm was usually sore and with this covid shot her arm was not sore and she did not feel a little icky like she wanted to take a nap, did not feel like she had a reaction at all. Mentions she has acute arthritis and has bad knees. She just wants to speak to someone about the reaction, the day after the first day of receiving the covid shot and from there on in, her arthritis has been awful and like something in the shot that does not agree with medication she is taking. Her legs hurt and knees hurt. Caller stated she received a Pfizer Covid 19 vaccine last week, Thursday. The first day she had no reaction, usually she feels a little icky, she has received all Pfizer vaccines so far and had no reaction, no sore arm and her previous dose was on December last year. She stated she lives in REDACTED, with damp weather and today was cold, so that could be an issue. She has never had covid, so maybe she does not have a lot of immunity. She has acute arthritis and a bad knee, but she was taking medication for it (generic of 'mobic') since a couple months ago. It has been wonderful, she has felt terrific, she takes the 'mobic' generic twice a day, she takes tylenol arthritis and tramadol 1 and a half a day, so she believes it is the covid, she does not know what else it could be. Since the day after the shot she can hardly walk, she has pain in her legs, when she sleeps. She walks indoors every day 30-45 minutes, she was still doing it but now she can hardly walk due to her arthritis. She was told by a friend of hers that other people she knew had this type of reaction with their arthritis. The information on the batch/lot number for BNT162b2 omicron (lp.8.1) will be requested and submitted if and when received.
