Symptoms: Chest discomfort, Dysphonia, Dyspnoea, Hypopnoea
Clinical narrative: By 9:30 pm realized had a voice changes and was hoarse.  By 10:15/10:30 I realized I was having a hard time breathing.  It felt like a strong band was cinched around my chest and pulled real tight. It came in a "spasm"/ "wave" style. Not a familiar experience I have ever had.   In a course of an hour, I found and took puffs about every 15/20 minutes of an inhaler I rarely need (unless playing with my rabbit) and found no relief. It became almost scarry by 11pm to 12pm ish as I feel I lost most of my breath and was very shallow in breathing. I do not have medical as we are currently unemployed, so I just held on and hoped it to get better. Stayed awake through the night. The next day, I felt "weird" in my chest. Best I can describe is a slight tightening with a minor shortness of breath.  Today, 11/23, I feel better.   Called Costco to tell them, they advised seeking advice from my doctor. Well, i don't have one. So I assume getting shots for a previously paid for trip will not be in my future. I will hope for the best. I do have to take Yellow Fever and worry very very much about this. If you can advise as to a safer way to get this done, I would GREATLY appreciate any advice or recommendations :-)

Clinical narrative: This case was reported by a pharmacist and described the occurrence of injection site wheal in a female subject aged between 20 and 29 years old who was vaccinated with FLULAVAL (GlaxoSmithKline) as a "tuberculin skin test" in error. On 25 October 2011 at 16:00 the subject received a dose of FLULAVAL (.1 ml, intradermal, right arm), and experienced wrong vaccine administered and inappropriate route of vaccination. According to the pharmacist, the subject was given FLULAVAL intradermally instead of receiving the tuberculin skin test (0.1 ml of FLULAVAL was administered). On 25 October 2011, less than one day after vaccination with FLULAVAL, the subject experienced injection site wheal, lump injection site, injection site tingling and injection site redness. On 26 October 2011, the patient experienced squeezing in arm ("feels like arm is squeezed"). On 25 October 2011, the subject had reported that the wheal was a pea size lump and red and tingly. On 26 October 2011, the subject stated that the wheal was now larger and it felt like her arm was squeezed. The subject's healthcare provider recommended ice and BENADRYL, but the subject refused. At the time of reporting the wheal was worse, the squeezing in arm was unresolved and the outcome of the other events was unknown. Follow up information received from the pharmacist on 18 November 2011. According to the pharmacist, the subject was a 33-year-old female.

Clinical narrative: I started feeling ill a few hours after receiving both the flu shot and the pneumonia vaccine. I've never had a reaction to the flu shot, this was the first time I've gotten the pneumonia vaccine. My arm pain intensified throughout the night at the injection site and around it and I felt really bad, first a headache and then chills and muscle aches. By morning I was terribly weak and my joints and muscles were in terrible pain, I could barely walk a few steps without having to sit because I was so week. I would get the chills with my teeth chattering and then I would get so hot my skin felt like I could cook on it.  I couldn't get into my doctor on that Monday but by Tuesday I was still sick and my doctor instructed me to go to the hospital. They admitted me with a WBC of 15,000 and all my other symptoms. On Wednesday the 23rd my WBC had dropped to 11,000 and I was feeling a great deal better.  I still have the headache on 11/25 but other symptoms have subsided.
