Vaccine: ANTH
Symptoms: Injection site warmth, Pain, Rash macular
Clinical narrative: - had anthrax vaccine on 29 April 2019 in medical clinic, administered to R deltoid; a day or two later noticed small red blotches distal to the deltoid insertion on his upper arm, that coalesced 1 day later into an erythematous, TTP, warm patch; no redness overlying the deltoid; no fever; no previous reaction to this vaccine (has had multiple doses over the years) - did notice a possible insect bite or bump inside the area of redness yesterday (mid upper arm) - on exam: R lateral upper arm: 12x7cm warm and TTP region of erythema and edema. Distal to deltoid insertion, with small 2mm papule within the circular skin lesion (anteroinferior aspect of the erythema, mid upper arm, not at typical deltoid injection site for vaccine). Skin at injection site well healed with no surounding erythema or TTP. No purulence/fluctance/drainage noted. -exam seemed consistent with mild cellulitis; however, was unclear if related to his recent Anthrax vaccine as erythema/edema distal to deltoid with no erythema or TTP tracking from this site. Had possible insect bite in the affected region of the upper arm, which may have been a more likely contributing factor. treated with Kelfex 500mg PO qid for 5 days  - on follow-up 48hrs later, reports redness has faded and receded from previous borders marked (with exception that it initially extended slightly beyond the inferior border (but has since been fading); pain improved - instructed to complete the 5 day course and Allergy consultation via teleconsult service - per Allergy, given the patient?s prior doses of Anthrax vaccine and the timing of onset as well as the appearance of the area of erythema, they suspected a local, robust inflammatory reaction (not IgE mediated) and the movement down the arm was likely related to dependent effects

Symptoms: Erythema, Rash, Rash pruritic
Clinical narrative: In mid March i developed an itchy rash on the scalp behind the left ear, few days later I was vaccinated  with the first dose of Shingrix. I treated the rash with hydrocortizone which appeased the itching for a while. Few weeks later I developed an itchy rash on the abdomen again i treated the rash with the Hydrocortizone which appease the itching but it the redness never went away .On May 16 I was seen by a dermatologist who prescribed FLUTICASONE PROPIONATE which i used the same day. I went for the second dose of Shingrix while the Fluticasone seemed to have cured the redness on the abdomen. Unfortunately the itchy redness on the abdomen returned on 09/19/2019 and returned also on the scalp beyond the left ear. I am not sure if the redness and the itching are related to the vaccine. I am not on any medication beside a 81mg aspirine.

Symptoms: Injected limb mobility decreased, Injection site pain, Insomnia, Loss of personal independence in daily activities, Musculoskeletal stiffness
Clinical narrative: Received Pneumovax 23 pneumococcal vaccine polyvalent at 11:30 AM in right arm.  By 3:00 was having a lot of pain and stiffness and by 9:00 PM extreme pain and could not raise the arm, sit, or lie down.  This extreme nerve "zinging" continued for about 8 hours and the arm could not be lifted at all, I had to hold my hand and pull it out a bit to put a bra under the armpit(husband had to fasten), could not comb hair, etc.  Any motion sent pain through the arm and shoulder.  I slept with my arm propped up on a folded pillow for over a month if I was in bed.  I often slept in a lazy boy if it had a left-handed foot control as I couldn't run anything with the right hand.  I began to be able to move the arm a bit after about a week.  For a month I couldn't lift arm above shoulder and not hold any weight with the right hand.  I was eventually able to put on makeup and lift the arm enough to curl some of my hair.    I had about four weeks of physical therapy and regained a bit of movement each time.  After four months, the arm still aches when I am lying down to sleep, I often have to change positions or get up and sleep in chair.  The arm still doesn't feel good if I reach towards the back at all and aches from shoulder around the back and to the elbow.

Clinical narrative: I received the vaccine @ 11:15 a.m. on Thursday, May 2. 2019 and at around 10 p.m. on Friday, May 3, I got very dizzy and developed a 100.3 fever. ( I later discovered that that thermometer was running one degree lower.)  During the night, it felt like needles were protruding through my upper arm from the inside out. The area became very hard, hot, and red. I tried putting ice on it with no relief. I then looked at the handout that was given to me but very little was written about this. I went on your website and since it was the weekend, I did not contact my doctor but decided to go on an extra-strength Tylenol regime. The next morning, my temperature was normal and although my arm was very painful and I could bare lift it, I went on with my day. The fever did not return until Sunday night even though I continued with Tylenol regime. By now, the redness had significantly spread down my right arm and the hard red area had expanded. I went to my doctor on Monday since your website had mentioned 1-3 days and I was not only past that but not improving. On another website my arm looked like patient #4's.  My doctor took blood and then recommended that I begin cephalexin. The reaction became less severe but it is now May 21, and the red hard area is still hard, lightly black and blue, and tender. Every so often I get a shooting pain in the area and there is some redness going down my arm.
