Clinical narrative: I got the shot at the end of my shift at work, came home and went to bed at 8a.m. At 10a.m. I woke up and felt like something was stuck in my throat, but could get no relief from coughing. I went back to bed and was freezing. At 12:15p.m. I awoke again with the same feeling in my throat and still freezing, now my bottom lip was swelled, I had a little nausea, felt weak, and my arms were really heavy. I called since they were the ones that gave the shot. The lady there said I should take some Benadryl and not be alone. I made my way to the bathroom and got some Benadryl, while in there feeling really dizzy like I was gonna pass out. I called my husband to come home. At 1:30p.m. I took 2 Benadryl. At 2:15 I was still freezing, but my eyes started burning, now I was running a fever of 100.7. At 3:30 I went to the Dr. now my temp was 101.4 and feeling really bad. The Dr. told me it was not a reaction, that a reaction takes 2-3 days to onset. On the handout I received with my shot it says the opposite. The Dr. gave me an antibiotic and sent me home. I am very confused NOT knowing what happened with me yesterday. I am going to miss 2 days of work with NO pay and disciplinary points on top of it. I believe it was a reaction, but how do I find out for sure?

Never able to break the temperatures since onset that started right after flu shot.  We have went to the pediatrician and to the ER which all tell us it's a viral type of infection.

She states she feels dazed, like she hasn't quite woken up yet. 10/6/2011 Spoke with patient who states that she did not go to ER yesterday. She states that she sat outside the ER for a while, but never went in. She reported having some wheezing last night. She also reported having chills, hot flashes, and body aches last night. She did take BENADRYL which improved her symptoms and resolved the wheezing. She reports being absolutely exhausted today and has taken the day off to rest. I advised her she should continue the BENADRYL while at home today and cautioned her against driving while taking it. She is advised to seek ER care with ANY troubles breathing. She agrees. Allergy list updated and advised against having future flu vaccines. I also stated that her symptoms today and last night can happen with the allergic reaction. She is advised to continue rest and keep hydrated. She agrees and will call with any questions or concerns or seek ER care if needed.
