The evening of the vaccine andthe next day, I had the typical symptom of slight headache, sore arm, tiredness that I have had with all my prior Moderna Covid vaccines. (My prior Moderna vaccine was May 2023). On Day 3, I started getting a terrible throbbing headache that was debilitating. I also had pain in my shoulder, neck and upper back. I took 2 extra strength Tylenols and the severe pain improved, but I still had a low grade headache. The body aches improved. However from this day forward until Day 6, the severe headache came back immedialty after the Tylenol wore off. I was taking Tylenol 24/7 and not sleeping much, waking up with headache pain. I tried a heating pad on my shoulder, neck and back but that did not help. On Day 6 (Saturday 10/28), my PCP told me to go to the ER and get a Head CT Scan to see what was going on. At that point I was still taking 2 Extra strength Tylenol every 6 hours 24/7. I went to the ER and got a CT Scan with and without contract (results below). I was treated with 10mg of Dexamethasone (Decadron) and sent home. I have not had a sever hadache and this is Day 7. Diagnosis- Migraine without status migrainosus, not intractable, unspecified migraine type
