Clinical narrative: This medically confirmed spontaneous report (initial receipt 12-Dec-2014) concerns a 62 year old female patient. The patient received unspecified pneumococcal vaccine years ago. On 17-Oct-2014, the patient received unspecified flu vaccine (manufacturer and batch number not reported). On the same day, the patient also received PNEUMOVAX (batch number not reported) at 0.5 ml. It was reported that while administering PNEUMOVAX, the pharmacist 'stuck the needle in very high up on the shoulder'. He could not inject it so he stuck the needle second time "right next to the first location" and still could not inject. He was able to inject PNEUMOVAX on the third needle insertion. On 17-Oct-2014, about 2 and a half hour later, the patient's shoulder began to have severe pain. She stated that it was throbbing and painful. It was so painful that she was nauseated. The patient received treatment with diphenhydramine and ibuprofen and went to an urgent care centre. She also went to orthopaedic surgeon who took an MRI of the shoulder and found "fluid in bursa with bursitis, with a small high grade superficial tear partial tear". The patient stated that the pharmacist had injected PNEUMOVAX into her shoulder joint. It was so tender and painful that the patient could not lie down, sleep or even put ice on it. The patient was scheduled for surgery with the orthopaedic surgeon to repair the torn ligament, but the surgery was delayed related to unspecified problems with blood work. The outcome was reported as not recovered.
