Vaccine: FLU4
Symptoms: Blood test, Drooling, Fatigue, Hypoaesthesia, Loss of personal independence in daily activities
Clinical narrative: On Oct 25, 2018, my husband and I went to store. We were administered the flu vaccine. Within a week I had severe tingling that began in my left thumb. It creeped all the way up my left arm and down my left side and into my left leg, and my left torso. Even the left side of my face. I would even drool a little bit out of the left corner of my mouth. I became extremely fatigued and could not get out of bed without my husband?s help. The following week I saw my chiropractor, and told her my symptoms.  Thinking it was a pinched nerve, she adjusted me.  I went back again the following week.  The tingling was still there but now I was experiencing numbness on my left side. The chiropractor recommended that I call my primary care physician. My PCP was booked, so the office booked me with Dr. I saw her on Nov 15, 2018. She asked me what happened, and I told her, I got a flu shot and these symptoms showed up right away and they haven?t left. She did the neuro checks that they do, checked my reflexes. She recommended that if the symptoms didn?t dissipate with 2 weeks, to call the office and come back. Two weeks came and went with no changes in my symptoms. I called the doctor?s office and got in with Dr, my regular PCP, on Nov 28, 2018. She did the same examination and neuro checks. There was a difference in sensation from the left side to the right side, so she ordered an MRI of the brain. The MRI was completed on Dec 4, 2018. The MRI report came back suggesting a diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis. I was referred to, a Neurologist. My first appt with her was January 10, 2019. She ordered lots of blood work and further MRI studies of the cervical and thoracic spine. Blood work was done to rule out any other possibilities, and the follow up with her was in February. And she said that she officially diagnosed me with Multiple Sclerosis. The drug therapy she recommended is Tecfidera.  She said there was nothing she could prescribe that would help with any of my symptoms.  Tecfidera would have a 50% chance of preventing a future ?event? but has a long list of nasty and scary side effects not to mention, a hefty price tag.

Clinical narrative: Please help me with obtaining records. My daughter was given shots and the medical facility lost them. Complaint filed and documented with the Health Department. My daughter was later re-immunized by another facility I will look for this information however I believe its available on the public vaccination system. She contracted chicken pox as a result of the shot the break out was SEVERE, I have only ever seen a break out like this in other countries never on anyone I know in use.  We returned to the doctor and they advised to treat like chicken pox & measles. Healing time was around 6 weeks.  I believe this damaged her development. After the 'overdose of shots she never responded the same. I need help with understanding what happened. All medical records have been documented.

Clinical narrative: Immediate pain upon injection.  Left arm injection (Meningococcal conjugate) hurt worse than right arm (HPV).  I (mom) had her take Naproxen (220 mg) for 3/10 left arm pain with movement  (especially extending and lifting).  She tends to under-rate her pain as opposed to over-rate it.  By 8:30 PM she was running a fever, having significant increase in pain, 6/10.  She took 2 Naproxen at 9PM, and went to bed.  Also, she was very emotional.  She rarely ever cries about anything, but she was crying/sobbing uncontrollably for over an hour.  Patient woke up at 3 AM, very hot to touch, with fever and chills.  She took a shower, got dizzy, had to sit down in the bottom of the tub because she felt like she was going to  fall.  She was nauseated, weak, and hurting.  She had lower back, hip pain, and knee pain.  Hip and back pain was 8/10 pain on 0-10 scale.  Muscle weakness, legs weak, and ears stuffy.  She says the feel very full, and had a noise in her ears, like the sound of static (off and on). This has been going on all day.  We've used naproxen and alternating Tylenol now, but symptoms get worse as meds near wearing off. She also feels disoriented at times, as if she don't know which direction to turn, left or right, to go to the bathroom.
