Adds she also felt fatigue. Adds the ache she would guess it was some kind of vagal response, anytime she felt pain she could feel it projecting to another part of her body, like ants running in her body and her nerves were so high pitched she couldn't sleep. Today her arm maybe is a little less lumpy; and she doesn't feel nearly as bad as Sunday; and today her temperature is normal. Mentions there is no sign of blood so the lump on her arm is not like a hematoma. Adds the worst was on Sunday; she woke up with sweats like menopause. Today she reports all of her symptoms have gone away, except the lump on her arm and it is improved. Adds she would not have called except for the arm. She is asking is this normal or is it something she should be concerned about?. Treatment: Mentions she would have gone to the emergency room if it had not gotten better.
