Clinical narrative: I am sure they gave me every vaccine under the sun.  I suffered a severe swelling in my lymph node, under the arm at which was my injection site for the smallpox vaccines, which was just a day after my vaccine. I could not even put my arms down to my side, it was so swollen. I went to clinic to have it looked at, but the Clinic stated that they were not concerned and did not even do anything except look at swelling. No Tests were performed.  I still suffer from mysterious 'pockets' of unknown material and origin under my skin, primarily across my abdominal area. Once again, Medical was largely unconcerned with even assessing the ailments.

Clinical narrative: I did not receive any vaccination information prior or after my vaccinations.  Approximately five days after the vaccinations ( I am unsure of which pneumonia shot I received).   I started with a shingle on the tip to right side of my nose.  A few days later another on the top of my nasal area.   A day or so later I received what appears to be a chicken pox on my right cheek.  At almost the same time I received a massive cold sore on my left upper lip inside and outside of the lip.   It was very painful and large.   I treated myself with alcohol swabs which I have always found worked good on any shingle.   I still have a small bit of the cold sore on my lip it is almost gone. I have been feeling very unwell and overall lethargic.  I am undergoing treatment for a possible urine infection and am also on Cephalexin twice daily but the clinic has not confirmed the infection as yet.  But last evening on the first of November I started to get up and my left front thigh was so painful it felt like someone hit me with a bat repeatedly on that front part of my thigh.  I took Ibuprophen two 200mg tabs.  It helped somewhat.  I was able to sleep.  Today I took one potassium over the counter pill thinking it might help and maybe I was dehydrated or something from the possible urine infection.  I did ok all day until this evening and I began feeling lethargic again and I have had GERD now for about three days or so.  I am very tired, my eyes are also bothering me, dry and they seem like they are somewhat infected and get blurry off and on during the day.   MY 91 year old mother received the same vaccine on the same day and she has been in her pajamas since the 14th not feeling well.  Her eyes both got red and dry and she also received a STY.  I took her to the Clinic and nurse had her seen by the eye clinic.   He asked How I was doing and I showed him my cold sore and said, "not good".  I do not want the second vaccine.

Vaccine: FLU4, FLU4
Symptoms: Blood glucose, Dizziness, Fall, Hypoaesthesia, Nausea
Clinical narrative: Administered a flu shot using a 5/8" needle in patient's left deltoid. After administering the vaccine and returning to the pharmacy, the patient's mother was screaming that her son was having a seizure and was discovered to be shaking near the magazine rack. Administrator immediately dialed 911 as she was the closest to the phone, and 2 pharmacy technicians went to the patient to check on him. Administrator was on the phone with 911 dispatch for roughly 3.5 minutes, and then went out to check on the patient. The patient reported feeling cold and that his face was numb. He was conscious and knew his name, and his face appeared to be pale/gray in color. A nurse practitioner happened to be in the drive-thru during this event, so she came in to check his vitals and ask him some questions. By this time, the paramedics arrived and took over assessing the patient. His pulse was 60 with a pulse ox of 99.

Symptoms: Abdominal pain, Anxiety, Chills, Computerised tomogram abdomen, Computerised tomogram pelvis
Clinical narrative: The first symptom of a reaction was an acute pain at the base of my skull; then a sense of dizziness and "brain squeeze". It passed, and I began to feel slightly feverish. When I rose to walk out at the end of a 2 hour-class (sitting with 1 break an hour earlier when I walked easily) I had difficulty getting easily to my feet. I had to shuffle my feet to walk. No pain, but great stiffness. On the 30 minute drive home I suddenly began shivering and my teeth chattering; felt very cold, even though it was a warm evening. As soon as I got home I took my temperature (no fever) had a hot bowl of chicken rice soup, with a lot of soda crackers and the shivering slowed and stopped. I slept very soundly. Even though I could walk without shuffling, overall stiffness continued for about 7 weeks. The injection site continued to be painful, then very tender when touched through June 12.  Although I don't know if these are at all related, I add them here; perhaps new issue with my neck is related. August 4 I was diagnosed with a kidney infection at ER. (Was referred to ER I was in abdominal pain and it was late in the day.) August 8 I checked myself into the ER because I had pain in my abdomen that I thought was due to a recurred kidney infection. Test results for the infection were negative, however I felt increasingly anxious; enough to check myself back in after release given all clear on kidney infection. (I started to see double while driving, so I went back to ER.) The ER doc suspected vagus nerve interactions. My GP subscribed a current XRay of my back and neck and a course of physical therapy which seems to be helping with pain, cramping and dizziness/anxiety.
