Vaccine: FLU3
Symptoms: Arthralgia, Contusion, Immediate post-injection reaction, Injection site pain, Loss of personal independence in daily activities
Clinical narrative: I am experiencing muscle weakness and pain in my left arm.  The pain started on 10/18, when I came to clinic for the flu clinic. I think that the person who administered it was unfortunately an inexperienced student (she was wearing a uniform with the name of her school on it) and put the injection extremely high up on the arm - half an inch below where the bone sticks out. There was an immediate burning sensation with the injection that came around my shoulder that really hurt. My arm was bruised for 2 weeks afterwards, and I continue to experience a sharp pain and muscle weakness any time that I lift it above my head or press outward, which means some basic daily activities are hard, painful, or impossible.  On contacting my primary care provider, he said it was likely SIRVA, due to the incorrect positioning of the injection.

Benadryl seemed to make the back/shoulder rash disappear after an hour or so, but the arm rash got redder and more swollen, finally hurting to the touch, when I woke up.  Pharmacist said not to bad but to continue taking Benadryl and to report this.
