Clinical narrative: This is a follow-up to a previously submitted VAERS report 503390-1. 35 y/o who received multiple vaccines (per VAERS report - AVA(3), DTAP, Hep B, IPV, Influenza, and Yellow Fever; per electronic Immunization Records - AVA(3) on 15 JAN 2011 per VAERS report/9 JAN 2011 per electronic Immunization records. Patient received Influenza and TWINRIX vaccines on 02 MAY 2011. He denies onset of any systemic symptoms within the first 48 hours following vaccine receipt, and denies any unusual or persistent reactions at or near the vaccination sites. Per patient report, he began experiencing lower back/"tail bone" and bilateral knee pain around JUN/JUL 2011. He underwent a number of clinical evaluations and treatments before he was eventually diagnosed with Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS), HLA B27 positive, around JUN 2012. Patient was followed by Rheumatologist between AUG 2012 and AUG 2013. Dr. has since retired and patient plans to follow up through the Medical System. He has been treating symptoms of AS with sulfasalazine 1000 mg twice daily, Prednisone 5 mg daily, Naproxen 1000 mg twice daily, and recently, monthly epidural corticosteroid injections. He is pending initiation of ENBREL. His knee pain has been evaluated by Orthopedics and was assessed to be Patellofemoral Syndrome, for which patient has undergone Physical Therapy. Patient has no evidence of URI or GI-related symptoms prior to vaccine receipt. He denies previous, persistent symptom of lower back and "tailbone" pain prior to JUN 2011. He did experience "jostling" causing soreness during training (simulates rollover accident in vehicle) in JUN/JUL 2011. PMHx at the time of vaccine receipt was noncontributory. Since Dx, patient has been diagnosed with HTN and Vit D deficiency for which medications have been initiated. No symptoms consistent with Inflammatory Bowel Disease or Iritis. Since the time of diagnosis, patient began experiencing bilateral hand pain and stiffness, but related diagnosis is not clear (Hand x-rays in 2012 were Normal).
