Clinical narrative: DEC 15 2017 DR. VISIT -  RECEIVED PNEUMONIA SHOT PNEUMOVAX-23 Received Pneumonia shot and when returned home, immediately had to lay down, very ill feeling, with very red, swollen painful arm. I called back to the Dr office and they were closed. A friend was reassuring that it will get better and if not call Dr. I called Dr. on Monday Dec 18 regarding concern of continued poor shot reaction and pain. Jan9 I called Dr. again regarding continued pain and he assured me the reaction would go away.  Called Dr. again Dec19 with continued pain and decreasing mobility with increasing pain intensity. Got in to Dr.'s office and saw his nurse-practitioner on Jan22. Their office had multiple people look online at pharmaceutical sites regarding vaccine reactions and found that reactions were only to have lasted a week. As I was continuing to feel worse as time passed since the shot, and they really didn't know what to do, so I was prescribed Prednisone at the rate of 20mg for eighteen days. The prednisone ran out Feb13. Pain and joint stiffness intensified and by Feb17 I could not get out of bed. It took me two and a half hours to get out of bed, then I had to get changed and I was able to take myself to the Emergency Room where I was assisted into the building. At emergency I spoke with three doctors over an eight hour span. Tests included blood work and xrays after having shared my story since having the shot. They advised to stop Crestor as that can cause joint aches  I was to stop it for two weeks. I was put on a 10mg Prednisone twelve day taper-pack (60-40-30-20-10), which I finished Mar1. High dose of prednisone dose at the beginning was causing me to have jitters, heart palpitations and not sleeping. As the Prednisone tapered down, aches returned. So on Mar18 I started my CRESTOR again as pains were returning in spite of not taking it. No relief from muscle and joint aches was ever fully received. Later in March I had many more blood tests and Apr4 I was sent to a Rheumatologist and had many appointments where more blood work and prednisone given, without any relief. I saw Dr. May 1. On this date he had decided that what I had was something called Polymyalgia Rhumatica for the lack of knowing what else to call my situation. Needless to say, I was angry and upset to think that all these months knowing that this pneumonia shot did this to me and that the DRs. wouldn't even think about this having been caused by the pneumonia shot. I had to sell my home because I couldn't care for myself. Now in appointments have continued to this day. Other DRs. have encouraged me to report this because I am not the only one who has had had severe reactions from having vaccine shots. This summary does not include all of the appointments and blood tests I have had. And I continue to this day to seek medical help for this condition brought on by the pneumonia shot. I do not want others to go through what I have.

Clinical narrative: With shot #1, my arm became red and swollen a bit. I felt tired  but both symptoms passed within a few days. I noticed a slight rining in in my right ear, but thought I must have an aspirin which sometimes does that. With shot 2, I also felt very tired but Became physically sick: ache all over, especially my right arm which swelled up and turned red and hot for more than 2 weeks. The ringing min my ear became so loud and bothersome that I finally went to our Urgent care doctor, who told me it was from the SHINGRIX shot and sent me to an ENT doctor who confirmed the same information about the shot.

Clinical narrative: The patient came in to the pharmacy today with her husband and wanted to let us know that she had been having a reaction to the flu shot she received here on 1-14-2019. She is a retired nurse and said she always gets the flu shot every year, but this year had some problems. After she received the shot the area (she pointed to the area under the deltoid muscle from under the deltoid to near her elbow, not the deltoid) was red and quite tender. There was no swelling, but the area is still sore when she moves her arm, and sometimes wakes her up at night if she is sleeping on that arm. She said the shot was given in the right place (center of deltoid) and she had no known drug allergies. I told her it may be nerve pain and she could try tylenol (she hadn't taken anything for it yet). I told her I would fill out a report and took her phone number.
