Symptom narrative

Tingling in lower lip within two hours of injection. Felt like a cold sore even though I've never had a cold sore before. Lower lip has been hypersensitive ever since. Constantly peeling, slightly swollen. Lower lip has swollen considerably after eating some salsa. Have also experienced periodic headaches, dizziness, and eye problems (blepharitis) however I don't know if they are related to getting the vaccine.
