Symptoms: Axillary pain, Bone pain, Pain in extremity, Paraesthesia
Clinical narrative: Pain started in left arm around to back - felt like bone pain in shoulder elbow and wrist and extended to fingertips. Pain in pit of arm lasted for 2 days and arm is still tingling 4 days after vaccination was administered.  On a scale of 1 to 10 I would give it an 8 during the first 2 days.  It is a disgrace that this vaccine is even on the market.  All that pain and stress and there is still over 100 types of pneumonia one can catch.  I can't believe they also give this to children over 2 years of age.  The next box says it all - Patient Died?????
