Symptoms: Fall, Injected limb mobility decreased, Injection site erythema, Injection site mass, Injection site pain
Clinical narrative: A sore, red lump the size of a baseball appeared later that day on my left upper arm where I got the shots. It stopped being sore and the size went down after a few days, but I could not move my head or left arm. About a year and a half later, I fell and now I can move my head although my neck is sore and feels stiff when I move it side-to-side. I still could not move my left arm. About 6 months after that, I was sitting in a chair and my 6 year old grandson jumped on me from the right side. It caused extreme pain in my left arm, but I can now move it although it still hurts and I don't have full range of motion. It is especially difficult for me to move my left arm far enough back to hook my bra strap. I can move it to the back, but not high enough up, so I have been putting the bras on by hooking them in front and then twisting them around to have the hook in the back. I've also been placing my left arm behind me and using my right hand to push my left arm up a little each day. Now I can hook my bras in back, but it is still very difficult and very painful for my left arm. My doctors never did anything for me when I told them about it.

Clinical narrative: Vaccinated with SPV in his left arm and he received anthrax (AVA) # 1, typhoid # 2 and his annual influenza in his right arm. He denied problems with previous vaccinations. Later that night he began to experience numbness in his 4/5th fingers. He sought medical evaluation on 04 Nov and was given NSAIDS. He had f/u visits in Dec, Jan, Feb, and Mar for persistent numbness, and left upper extremity weakness. He had no relief from an ulnar splint. His cervical MRI, revealed a mild disc bulge but no canal narrowing. On 11 Apr 11 he was evaluated by neurosurgery and underwent a repeat MRI. Per neuro, there is no evidence of a compressive neuropathy at the level of the C-spine. Neuro stated that his leading hypothesis is that this is some immune modulated idiosyncratic reaction and assessed as having non progressive subacute left ulnar nerve palsy. He was released with no limitations and was given a trial of a MEDROL Dose Pack. He was seen for follow up on 13 May where he reported that he still has some numbness to his hand and the provider stated that LUE weakness appears to be resolving and his strength has significantly improved from our last encounter.
