Clinical narrative: In Oct 2016 I received my yearly flu shot, I have never had a bad reaction, in the last decade of receiving this vaccine. That day my pharmacist suggested I also receive my pneumonia shot. I asked all about it, ex: can I use with my meds, will I get sick, etc. She said it is perfectly safe don't worry. So I said OK. Then the other pharmacist came out and injected my right arm with both because she said it can get a little sore sometime. If so do arm circles. I went home within 3 hrs I was doing arm circles and noticing a horribly sore upper arm, never had anything like that, then developed very high fever, very swollen upper arm, (at least an inch bigger than left), headache, chills, severe muscle pain throughout body, but my arm pain at site of shots was horrible, just brushing against it hurt bad, by the next morning my one red patch at shot site had turned into red, raised 1 inch patches that spread from my shot site, to shoulder, armpit, the whole way to my neck, I was covered in patches. I felt horrible all over, different than the flu, but with symptoms that were horrible, that day I saw my doctor. He said give it one more day to see if anything changed I was icing, taking fever meds, etc, finally the 3rd day my fever broke and my symptoms started to reverse. My arm was so sore, for at least five days before I could even stand it to be touched. It was a horrible experience, and 72 hrs of horrible pain physically. I reported this when I read my doctor paper, to help someone else, as well as the doctors, but then learned of your recording there is also compensation for my pain and suffering. I deserve that. Please send my information on that, when I called, they still sent me no response, or no call.

Dizzy-light headed - blurred vision-REM-cant lay on left side-If I bend over I get dizzy-loss of appetite affects my allergies - sinus- I cough a lot-nauseous. Affects my diabetes-all the same symptoms just like when I started my diabetes- I vomited twice, July. A lot of phlegm-most of the time I talk like I have a cold. My left shoulder hurts all the time-it's been fractured and frozen from a car accident. Now it hurts worse. Sept and Oct, while I was in a store, I started becoming dizzy-chills, then hot flashes, chills. I fear each morning when I wake up because that's when it all happens and when it does Im usually in bed from 4-7 days. Neck pain-itching. Never again-no more shouts. None of any kind. I told Dr that I did not need the shot. Ive never had pneumonia, or the flu and the last time I had a cold was years ago. He forced me to get the shot and now Im sick all the time. My left shoulder hurts constantly. He even wanted me to get a flu shot and even a tetanus shot just because I had a slight scar from a burn along time ago. I hurt so bad now that sometimes I cant even go to sleep. A lot of leg cramps. I bend over and get dizzy. I hiccup and burp a lot. Drs don't even give shot anymore. Nothing helps my arm.
