In this case series, we illustrate two cases of patients who presented to the hospital with cardiac symptoms within one week of receiving the covid-19 vaccine.
It’s worth mentioning that in our practice, we were exposed to more than eight cases over six months in the period between late 2021 and early 2022, but these were the cases suitable for publication.
Initially, post-covid vaccine myocarditis was not very well known or recognised and concluding such adiagnosis was not easy and needed loads of investigations and prolonged hospital stay to explain the underlying cause of the patient’s presentation. However, with repeated exposure to such a presentation andincreasing published evidence of such unusual reactions, diagnosis has become more accessible. A shorter hospital stay was needed to conclude a proper management plan.
