Symptoms: Arthralgia, Bursitis, Hypokinesia, Joint swelling, Myalgia
Clinical narrative: On 6/26/00, the pt received his first IM - left deltoid dose of Lymerix. Within one week post vax, he experienced severe left shoulder pain and swelling. During the first few days, the pt "could not move" his shoulder. He can move his shoulder now but has constant pain. He thought it was more muscle pain than joint pain. An MD visit was required and the pt was treated with an analgesic/anti-inflammatory combination. The pt had difficulty identifying whether his pain was in the shoulder joint or in the deltoid area of his left arm. He was unable to determine whether the pain was myalgia or arthralgia. He reported that on a scale of 1-10, his pain was a "9" in the mid-day to evening and a "3" in the morning. He reported that his pain was worse if the weather changed to rain. He reported that the pain is primarily "in his shoulder". He was seen by a physician about 5-7 days after the pain started. He reported that his physician noted redness and swelling and the diagnosis of bursitis was given. His joint complaints have been evaluation by a physician. A swollen left shoulder joint has been documented on physical exam. Joint fluid was not obtained. On FU pt states within 2 hours post-vaccination he experienced severe left shoulder pain and swelling. He was "almost totally immobilized for about a week or two thereafter.  The pt reported that the physician wanted to treat the pt with cortisone injection, but the pt declined. The pt took the meds for one week but discontinued it as it caused drowsiness and nausea. As of 8/02/00, the pt reported that there had been slow and gradual improvement and he can extend his left arm "up to shoulder level" but it continued to be painful. He was unsure if there was redness or swelling now.  The events of left shoulder pain, left shoulder swelling, bursitis, and shoulder stiffness do not meet ICH serious criteria, but are being submitted expeditiously for information purposes.
