Additional Information: GSK Receipt Date: 11-JAN-2025 and 13-JAN-2025 The patient self-reported this case for herself. The patient received her second Shingrix shot in September at the physician's office and still dealing with pain at the site of shot on her arm. Her guess was that this should not still be happening. Felt worse recently as she had been dealing with strep throat and some other viral illness. The patient described her experienced a bit more.  She said it was weird because her arm seems worsened, when she was sick for example when she had a cold and strep throat before Christmas in 2024. She thought the sickness activated the injected arm pain.  She was recovered from the cold and from the strep throat. She said that she mentioned the arm pain to her physician last week in JAN-2025 and her physician said that was because there could be increased inflammation in the body when a person was sick.  She said that the exact spot that hurt on her arm was about 4 fingers down from her shoulder in the deltoid muscle where the injection was given, not the whole arm, just that spot.  It really hurts now (at the time of reporting), especially when she pressed on it. She recalled that the injected arm did ache for a few days to a week after the injection was given. She did say that this was affected the mobility of the injected arm a bit.  The patient said she had not been done any personal lifting (weight training) in about 6 weeks.
