Vaccine: HEP
Symptoms: Discomfort, Dyspnoea, Headache, Hypoacusis, Mobility decreased
Clinical narrative: I was given the HEP B vaccine, shot #3.  About 1 hours late, faster reaction to the previous 2 shots, I experienced the same pain from the shoulder blade up through to my head that I did from the first and second shot of the HEP B vaccine.  I couldn't move, and my hearing was muffled. I couldn't turn my head. The temporary paralysis feeling lasted 4 hours, but the pain lasted 7 days.  The most severe pain was at the top of my spine just before my head just like with shot #1 and #2.  It felt like someone was pushing their thumb on my spinal cord.  The difference with this was some shortness of breath. Just like with the other 2 shots, no one believed me, saying this was all normal, so there was no treatment. I had to wait it out.

Symptoms: Cardiac monitoring, Cellulitis, Crying, Echocardiogram, Electroencephalogram
Clinical narrative: My son received the Prevnar vaccine and the next day the lymph nodes in his neck were red and swollen, he was very tired and fussy. The following day, when he woke up from his nap, he was inconsolable, crying nonstop. He then proceeded to display seizure like activity and I called 911. He was taken by ambulance to the ER trama unit where he was diagnosed with cellulitis and lymphangitis and was treated with IV antibiotics. We were only home for a couple hours before he began to scream uncontrollably again and he was exhibiting seizure like activity. Called 911 again and was rushed to the ER trama unit again. There we waited to be transferred to another hospital where we ultimately spent the next 10 days fighting for my sons life. He was given every test under the sun including a spinal tap, many echocardiograms, an EEG, countless different IV sites, among others. He was seen by a neurologist, a cardiologist, an infectious disease doctor, all the resident doctors, and many others all with no answers. Finally, the infectious disease doctor diagnosed him with A-Typical Kawasaki Disease even though he did not show any signs of that disease. I asked every doctor if this could be related to the vaccine he was given the day before, all to be told a resounding no. He was treated with IVIG treatment and began to improve. After being released he has seen his cardiologist multiple times, his infectious disease doctor multiple times, along with his pediatrician. We have since changed pediatricians because of the knowledge we have gained about the dangers of vaccines. My son will have to get his heart monitored for the rest of his life due to this vaccine injury.

Symptoms: Biopsy skin abnormal, Dry skin, Hypersensitivity, Injection site erythema, Injection site rash
Clinical narrative: Information has been received from a physician (via questionnaire) and a 79 year old female patient reporting on herself, with allergy to anything from a pig, who on 31-JAN-2012 was vaccinated with a dose of ZOSTAVAX into the left arm (Lot #, dose and route not reported). The patient reported that she had no problem until 27-FEB-2012 (also reported by the physician as 25-FEB-2012), she noticed a rash on her upper left arm near where the injection was given. She saw a dermatologist. He really was not sure what caused the rash or what it was. They were red circles 1/4 to 1/2 inches in diameter. For one of two days, they had a very tiny point on the top of the mark but then the point disappeared. The patient was prescribed TOPICORT to use on the rash which she did for few weeks. After five weeks the patient decided to just let the rash break out and hopefully get it over with. The patient only had the rash on the left arm, no other place in her body. Within five days her arm was really bad with the rash except the under side on her arm. The rash did not itch nor was there any pain. After six weeks the patient saw a Doctor again. At that time, on 10-APR-2012, he did a biopsy of one of the marks which told that it was caused by an allergy (also reported by the physician as a sensitivity reaction) but could not tell if it was something external or internal (superficial and mid dermal polymorphous dermatitis consistent with dermal hypersensitivity reaction; This pattern was consistent with a derma hypersensitivity reaction that could be seen in response to a variety of exogenous or endogenous agents). The patient received a list of the components of the ZOSTAVAX and one of components was hydrolyzed porcine gelatin and the patient was very allergic to anything from a pig. The patient's rash so badly, two weeks ago had faded but she still could see tiny spots of it on her arm. As these spots faded the skin around them become very dry and itchy. The patient saw her allergist on 20-APR-2012 to talk to him about the rash also since it was allergy related. He had never seen anything like it before. The patient asked him if it would be okay to use CETAPHIL Moisturizing cream on her arm or should she just leave it alone. He told her it would be okay. The patient did use it and it did stop the itch. The patient saw the doctor, and he removed the stitch from the patient's arm due the biopsy two weeks ago. He told her that he felt the rash could be from the ZOSTAVAX due to her severe allergy pork. At the time of the report the physician reported that the patient was recovered in May 2012 (also reported by the consumer as not recovered). Follow up information has been received from the patient on 19-NOV-2015. The patient stated that a month after having the ZOSTAVAX, her whole arm was broken out. Her dermatologist did a biopsy and found out it was an allergic reaction. ZOSTAVAX contained porcine gelatin and she was allergic to any porcine product. Additional information has been requested.
