Clinical narrative: on 8/6 received shot, had arm pain that evening and felt tired. The next day, arm pain was worse and top of arm felt hot and sore to the touch. Continued on Sunday. On 8/9, flu like symptoms and felt really bad. My wrist was starting to feel achy. on 8/11, the flu like symptoms had gone away but had extreme wrist pain, so much so that I couldn't bear weight on it.  on 8/15, I was in a yoga class and couldn't bear any weight on it. I wore a brace for the next few days. The week of 8/19 I started to notice the pain had moved from my wrist up into my forearm. I started experiecing bad headaches that would start at base of my head on the left side. I started to experiencing neck and shoulder pain on the left side of my body. Later into the week, my left side lymph nodes were swollen, i had pain in my ear. I noticed that lying down my left side of my face felt looser, specifically at my mouth, where it felt almost like I was slighty drooling. I have never ever experience any things such as these, and it was all left side dominant. On 8/26, i couldn't stand the wrist pain anymore, so I visited my chiropractor to see if by change i had a broken wrist or something else causing all these problems. I told them about the shot and they said some people feel pain, but not normally 3 weeks later though some RA or autoimmune patients have experience longer term joint pain. I have never been diagnosed with either of those, and again it was only happening on the left side.  THe pain continues into the weekend and following week. on 8/30, I woke up with pain in my shoulder and rotator cuff, to the point where it hurt to lift my arm.  I went to my massage therapist to see if she could work out the body pain. I had my last massage with her in July. At this appointment, she told me my left side felt completely different: my muscles felt ropey, hard, and only on the left side. This was present in my left arm, neck, left pectoral muscles, face, and top of skull. The left side of my skull felt as if it were swollen.  on 8/31, I woke up with a swollen elbow and a not the size of walnut in my inner left elbow . On 9/2, I went to see my gynecologist for a medical procedure (iud replacement) and the nurse couldn't take my blood pressure on the left side due to the pain. She asked if I had a bad blood draw or had injured my arm when she saw the swelling. I told her what happened and she told me I should file a report here because that actually happened to her and she was allergic to the shot. Though i had not told many, no one had my symptoms until I met her. I was supposed to take the second shot but declined due to the fact I was still dealing with issues surrounding the first one and I don't want to do anything that steals any more of my mobility. I still have the swollen elbow, shoulder pain, and lymph nodes  as of 9/9, I finally am seeing improvement in my wrist, being able to bear weight on it once again, but still not back to its normal pre-shot mobility. I started to notice 9/6 - 9/9 that I have had some weird sensations in legs...left knee locking up, sharp pain down the arch of my foot across the pad of my foot, randomnly and sharp pains. Again....all left dominant. I don't know what is wrong: if I am having an allergic reaction or if my shot was messed up. I will not take the shot again or in my second arm, to risk my safety and wellbeing, until/if I have answers as to what is happening to me and what I shoudl expect.
