She noticed last night (01Jul2020) around 4pm she got a red spot on her arm the size of a hard ball (4pm last night it started itching and said that she looked in the mirror that it was all red again). She said that it almost looks like it was getting bigger. She said that she was doing some running around and noticed it looked like it was getting bigger.

Caller said that she still has a bruise on it from a week ago (Jun2020). Caller said that this was the first time that she received the vaccine and she was supposed to get the other one next year. Caller asked if the pneumococcal 13-val conj vac (dipht crm197 protein) had Sulfa in it because she was allergic to Sulfa. The caller said that she is also allergic to Penicillin, IVP dye, and Iodine. Caller asked if the medication would have antibiotics in it like Penicillin. Caller asked if the 23 shot was different.
