Clinical narrative: 2 hours after receiving SHINGRIX shot, my left arm began throbbing and the pain was unbearable. The pain and throbbing lasted for 4 days, during which time I sat with ice packs on my arm. After 4 days the pain began to gradually subside, yet it still hurt to move or raise my arm. Even after a month has passed since the shot, it still hurts when I raise my left arm to shoulder height. I spoke to the pharmacist and told him of my adverse reaction. He told me he had received similar complaints. He advised me not to get the 2nd injection. I'm still unsure of what to do about this. I certainly don't want to go through the pain and misery a 2nd time, yet I want to be protected from shingles.

Clinical narrative: On Tuesday, October 9, 2018 I received a flu shot administered by our school nurse. It was approximately 3:15 pm. I worked until 4:00 pm and checked out. Instead of heading home I had a couple of errands to run. On my way, at approximately 4:15 pm, I began to sweat profusely, vision became blurry and I was confused. I kept driving because of the confusion I wasn't sure of what to do. I got to the intersection where there is a store on my left and another store on the right. From that point on I don't remember a thing. I was at that point anxious and confused. I kept driving and my driving became very erratic. There was an off duty detective behind me that took a video of my driving. It was a miracle that I did not kill someone or kill myself. I continued to drive until I ended up in a corn field. I do not have a copy of the police report yet, so I'm not sure exactly where I ended up. I believe I drove for 15/20 minutes. When stopped, two ambulances came and one of the respondents recognized my condition as a diabetic coma, low blood sugar. After checking the count he administered a glucose solution which he had to force down my throat since I was confused, scared and combative at this point. I was taken to the local hospital emergency room where I was treated. I was diagnosed with Hypoglycemia. Tests ran were CBC and Auto Differential, Comprehensive Metabolic Panel, Magnesium level, Metered blood glucose, Troponin 1 Ulta sensitive, Urinalysis and reflex Micro and Urinalysis Microscopic. After eating something and resting my blood sugar came back to the normal range. I was sent home with family supervision. I still have no recollection from the time I left until I stopped in the field. I followed up with more blood work on Thursday, October 11, 2018. Everything was in the normal range with slight dip in magnesium. I would like to add that there were 4 other staff members who got the shot out of the same vial that became ill. One staff member ended up in the hospital and one other was very affected by the shot. The flu vaccine that we received, I believe, needs to be tested to find out what was in it. The symptoms that I experienced would lead me to believe there was something, probably insulin, mixed with the flu vaccine.

Symptoms: Confusional state, Diabetic coma, Differential white blood cell count, Fear, Full blood count
Clinical narrative: On Tuesday, October 9, 2018 I received a flu shot administered by our school nurse. It was approximately 3:15 pm. I worked until 4:00 pm and checked out. Instead of heading home I had a couple of errands to run. On my way, at approximately 4:15 pm, I began to sweat profusely, vision became blurry and I was confused. I kept driving because of the confusion I wasn't sure of what to do. I got to the intersection where there is a store on my left and another store on the right. From that point on I don't remember a thing. I was at that point anxious and confused. I kept driving and my driving became very erratic. There was an off duty detective behind me that took a video of my driving. It was a miracle that I did not kill someone or kill myself. I continued to drive until I ended up in a corn field. I do not have a copy of the police report yet, so I'm not sure exactly where I ended up. I believe I drove for 15/20 minutes. When stopped, two ambulances came and one of the respondents recognized my condition as a diabetic coma, low blood sugar. After checking the count he administered a glucose solution which he had to force down my throat since I was confused, scared and combative at this point. I was taken to the local hospital emergency room where I was treated. I was diagnosed with Hypoglycemia. Tests ran were CBC and Auto Differential, Comprehensive Metabolic Panel, Magnesium level, Metered blood glucose, Troponin 1 Ulta sensitive, Urinalysis and reflex Micro and Urinalysis Microscopic. After eating something and resting my blood sugar came back to the normal range. I was sent home with family supervision. I still have no recollection from the time I left until I stopped in the field. I followed up with more blood work on Thursday, October 11, 2018. Everything was in the normal range with slight dip in magnesium. I would like to add that there were 4 other staff members who got the shot out of the same vial that became ill. One staff member ended up in the hospital and one other was very affected by the shot. The flu vaccine that we received, I believe, needs to be tested to find out what was in it. The symptoms that I experienced would lead me to believe there was something, probably insulin, mixed with the flu vaccine.
