Clinical narrative: Every time I have a vaccine, I have worse and worse episodes of Graves Disease and Thyroid Eye Disease.   I have a record that I created showing cause and effect starting in 1995.  I did not realize there was cause and effect until 2009, when an episode occurred in December 2007 and an episode occurred in December 2009.  I realized I'd had a vaccine both years in October.  I went home and wrote down all the other dates of Graves Disease and Thyroid Eye Disease; then, I checked my vaccine records (I lived in country until March 29, 2003), and THEY ALL LINED UP.  The 2007 flu vaccine resulted in a thyroidectomy in December 2008 (because I hadn't yet made the connection), and the 2009 flu vaccine (I don't know which one) resulted in bilateral orbital decompression, bilateral eye muscle surgery, and eyelid surgery.

Vaccine: FLU4
Symptoms: Chills, Dysphonia, Eye irritation, Feeding disorder, Headache
Clinical narrative: About 2 hours after the Influenza Vaccine was administered, the first symptoms started including wheezing, hoarseness and tightness in the throat and burning eyes. Then it developed into full-blown flu symptoms, including extreme malaise, chills, fever (101+), sweats, headache and nausea.  I couldn't eat for two days due to the nausea and I couldn't sleep due to the extreme feeling of malaise and headache. This was beyond 'mild' flu-like symptoms. It was full blown - just as bad as any flu I've had, but it lasted for a shorter period of time. I will never ever have another flu shot again. It was the most miserable  days I've had since my cancer.

I got in bed, took 1 extra-strength Tylenol and finally went to sleep around 11 p.m.  By 2 a.m. the fever seemed to have come down but I took another Tylenol.  I got up around 6:30 this morning and other than feeling tired I seem to be okay now.  My temperature is almost back to normal and I no longer have any aches and pains other than the usual ones. I experienced no congestion in my chest, sinuses or ears nor sore throat.  There's no rash or more than expected soreness at the injection site in my arm.  It was just maybe 8-10 hours of a nasty fever and chills and then I was over it.
