Additional details were provided as follow: The patient received Shingrix on 1st May 2021 The patient  stated that the needle was put in and burned like heck and her head was kind of exploded. The patient wanted to stay in store but felt awkward. The patient stated that her head settled down and her arm was throbbing and she started screaming. The patient stated the pain began in her lower back and her arm, head and right side of her hip and moved throughout her body. The pain rotated out everywhere after 30 minutes the pain settled down and she just had the pain in the arm. The patient stated that the area where vaccine was injected was almost like a baseball sized circle and was red, she removed band aid which caused a bruise and the injection site swelled up and she could not bear the pain. The patient stated that her head was killing her and it was ridiculous to use the arm and lift it like a disabled arm. All the reported events were now recovered/resolved but, the injection site was now black al around it. The reactions lasted for 11 days and sort of calmed down. The reporter consented to follow up.
