Clinical narrative: I administered the PNEUMOVAX 23 at about 6:02 pm and asked him to sit down for 20 minutes and about 10 minutes later he stated that he was having tingling in his scalp and feet and was feeling very hot. He looked a little flush. Before the shot was given, he had stated that nystatin had caused his feet to get hot and he had to go to ER to get a shot of Benadryl. So, when he said he was having an allergic reaction, I asked him if he wanted an oral or IM dose of Benadryl and he wanted the shot. I gave him 50mg I.M. of diphenhydramine in left arm and sat with him on and off for about 10 minutes until he said he was feeling better. I asked it there was anything else I could do for him, and he said no, he was feeling fine. He left about 6:45 pm with his girlfriend.
