Symptoms: Herpes zoster
Clinical narrative: shingles; This initial spontaneous report was received from a lawyer regarding a case in litigation and refers to a male patient of unspecified age. No information was provided regarding medical history, concurrent conditions, or concomitant medications.   On an unknown date, the patient was inoculated with zoster vaccine live (ZOSTAVAX) for routine health maintenance and for its intended purpose: the prevention of shingles (herpes zoster).  Shortly after receiving zoster vaccine live (ZOSTAVAX), the patient suffered an outbreak of shingles. As a result of these symptoms, the patient was seen and treated by medical providers and was still under their care. As a direct and proximate result of zoster vaccine live (ZOSTAVAX), the patient's symptoms have resulted in physical limitations not present prior to using the product. The patient also experienced mental and emotional distress due to resulting physical limitations and seriousness of his condition. As a result of zoster vaccine live (ZOSTAVAX), the patient sustained severe and permanent personal injuries. Further, as a tragic consequence of the Company's wrongful conduct, the patient suffered serious, progressive, permanent, and incurable injuries, as well as significant conscious pain and suffering, mental anguish, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life, physical impairment and injury. As a direct and proximate result of the Company's conduct, the patient has suffered and incurred damages, including medical expenses; the loss of accumulations; and other economic and non-economic damages. The outcome of the event was considered not recovered/not resolved.   The event was considered related to zoster vaccine live (ZOSTAVAX).   The event of shingles was considered to be disabling.

Clinical narrative: My husband (age 63 at time of shot) and I (age 61 at time of shot) both suffered ill effects from the Shingrix vaccine.  Part 1 was given at a pharmacy on 6.15.19 and Part 2 on 8.30.19.  For Part 1, I wife had some fever, tired side effect, but husband felt ill w/fever, body aches for about 3 days.  I think we informed our doctor, but don't think he reported it.  Didn't ask us questions.  For Part 2 shot, wife felt drastically ill - plastered to the couch, sleeping, horrible body aches, no appetite - so much my husband and I took turns getting a glass of water for each other - knowing we had to have water at least, even though we both didn't feel like drinking or eating.  Just sleeping and in pain.  Both of us started symptoms within hours of the shot.  Felt like death 1 whole day for me and 3 days for husband.  We have told our friends about the reaction and NOT to get the shot unless they felt they had to.  Husband vows not to get any more vaccines, except Tdap when needed.  We are both up to date on shots/vaccines.  I get flu shots. Husband will not - got sick after a flu shot years ago so he will not get again.  I get flu shots every year.  I even got Swine flu shot in 1976 w/no reaction.  I (wife) typically do not get reactions from any shots (other than arm discomfort), but with Shingrix EVEN I had an awful reaction.  Husband felt absolutely horrible.  We stayed at home on our couches and suffered.  Did not go to doctor or hospital.  Our daughter is a NICU nurse, but there was nothing she could do either.  You may email me if you need more information.

Symptoms: No adverse event, Wrong product administered
Clinical narrative: There has been no adverse event, however I was encouraged by my Department of Health to report an administration error. I had special ordered Daptacel for my daughter for her DTaP series. It's on her file to use this manufacturer vs the Infanrix. Before administration, I asked the nurse if it was the Daptacel and she said "yes" and then administered the vaccine. After I got home and checked the paperwork, I saw that the wrong manufacturer was used, even though it is specified in her file that my daughter is only to receive Daptacel. This is our preference due to different ingredients, however if this was given incorrectly to another child with an allergy or if she had administered a completely wrong vaccine -- it could have been lethal or possibly caused an adverse reaction. So far we haven't seen any symptoms, but will report if we do.

Vaccine: FLU4
Symptoms: Myasthenia gravis, Viral infection
Clinical narrative: I am not sure what the VAERS requirements are or of the specific criteria. This patient was given his flu shot at clinic on 10-18-19. He presented at the ER on 11-2-19 for what was first dx as viral illness. He returned on 11-8-19 and was admitted and subsequently dx with Myasthenia Gravis. I know this is sometimes associated with flu vaccine. This patient is confusing, however as he has hx of lumbar fusion, facial nerve palsy and a speech impediment, and asthma. It is difficult to know for sure if he could have already had this and it was only exacerbated, or if those things were unrelated and the true onset of the M.G. was last month. See me to discuss as I don't feel he should have future flu vaccine due to having this, regardless of it's onset. Thanks!

I called the pharmacy and they said to expect the redness/soreness to last a week ? not 3 weeks.  I?m wondering whether I had so many side effects because I previously had the the Zostavax vaccine and I previously had a mild case of shingles.

Vaccine: DTAP
Symptoms: Injection site erythema, Injection site pain, Injection site swelling, Injection site warmth
Clinical narrative: Red around injection site within the first few minutes. We thought maybe it was from when the nurse cleaned his arm with the alcohol pad. Unfortunately, it worsened over the course of the next few hours. His upper arm became sore and swollen and there was a red area approximately 6-inches long and 4-inches wide around the injection site. It resembled a burn. It was also warm to the touch. Applied cold packs, but that did little to lessen the redness or puffiness. This remained for about 3 days, then the visible reaction/symptoms from the vaccine lessened. After 5 days, his arm looked normal again. I can only wonder what other possible side effects he may have due to this vaccine, but which are not easily noticed like a red, swollen arm.

Clinical narrative: I experienced the same oculo respiratory syndrome symptoms reported with the 2003 and 2209-2010 influenza vaccine.

Most of the respiratory symptoms resolved by morning. In addition, my eyes began to itch and tear and throughout the night there was enough mucus discharge to glue my eyes shut. My eyes were also slightly swollen and very red consistent with conjunctivitis. My doctor prescribed antibiotic eye drops to resolve this condition.

Symptoms: Anaphylactic reaction, Immediate post-injection reaction, Injection site pain, Injection site swelling
Clinical narrative: I worked in Health Services.  They required me to get the flu shot.  The same day I got the flu shot in one arm and the pneumonia shot in my other arm.  I immediately had a problem with my shoulder that it swelled like a balloon and caused intense pain for weeks.  I am not sure if it was the flu vaccine or the pneumonia vaccine that caused the swelling and pain and suffering.  Ever since having the two vaccines administered the same day and time, I immediately began having an Anaphylaxis reaction to polysorbate which has never went away.  The Anaphylaxis reaction has never gone away since receiving both vaccines.   I do not know which manufacturer they administered to me.
