Clinical narrative: Had shot in Dec had a dull burning sensation at first where sot was. As time went by it moved from my bicep to my shoulder then the pain radiated up to my neck and back between my shoulder blades. As time went by it got worse. I wasn't able to lift anything. My left arm felt like a sack of flour and had prickly feeling then my should joint started hurting severely. Now I can't lift my arm up even half way without excruciating pain. I didn't think much at first about the burning sensation after the shot. And when the pain started in my shoulder and back I sought out a masseuse, that sent me through the roof, so I went to see my chiropractor. Because of what I told him about the pain location he was concerned I may be having a stroke or heart attack and took my blood pressure which was high 186/84 - I felt it was because of the pain I was enduring. I was able to go about 5 more days before the pain escalated again I went back to my chiro got an adjustment had him take my blood pressure which went up even higher 179/109. The pain was pretty intense. He suggested I go to the ER to get checked out so after I left his office i was in the ER. They were more concerned with my blood pressure more than my pain. I checked out fine - they gave me flexirol for my pain which didn't do a thing. I have also seen a acupuncturist - which help alliviate the weightedness and the prickly feeling in my arm. Not so much the pain. I decided to see what was going on and scheduled an MRI at Hospital. The MRI showed little to nothing. I then scheduled with an Orthopedic Surgeon and he verified I had frozen shoulder and that I would need therapy. I have done nothing to injure my shoulder and cause it to be this way. The conclusion was that the shot I received from the flu vaccine was the culprit it all stems back to that day - I had no pains or any issues prior to this. I have taken every effort to find a answer to this very debilitating problem and it all reverts back to the shot. That is why I'm reporting this. I have documentation all along the way that starts back in January in regards to this issue.
