Clinical narrative: From initial information received on 10/18/04 from a nurse regarding an adverse event occurring in the USA, it was reported that a 46 year old female patient received a FLUZONE vaccination, lot number U1377AA, administered IM at approximately 2:00 PM on 10/8/04. The site of administration was not reported. On 10/9/04, at 6:00 AM, the patient awoke feeling achy and had diarrhea off and on. She took Tylenol and felt somewhat better. Soon after this she felt achy and weak and stated that her legs felt funny. Her legs and elbows felt shaky, as if her blood sugar was low. She then donned a gown and gloves for a procedure and became very hot and she sat down for a few minutes. The patient stated she had to lay down and laid down across a desk and called an outpatient facility for help. She proceeded to have nausea and dry heaves and states she couldn't hold her head up. She tried to get up to go to the bathroom, but said she couldn't stand. After using the bathroom, she said she couldn't pull her pants up. The patient was taken to the emergency department, where she felt numb from her knees down, and from her elbows down. At this point, she stated she was unable to move anything except her head. After a liter of fluids, she felt somewhat better, but was admitted to the ICU overnight, as her physician felt she may have had an acute onset of GBS, which was ruled out. The following day, the patient was able to move and had sensation back. She was moved to a medical/surgical floor and was discharged on Monday, 10/11/04. The patient's medical doctor stated he found nothing and referred her to a psychiatrist who also cleared her. When the patient called the reporter on 10/18/04, she stated that she still felt weak, had frequent headaches, neck pain, and felt woozy the prior evening. Her right hand and both feet felt numb at times. On Friday, 10/15/04, she experienced a lot of rib pain and it hurt to take a deep breath. She reported that a neurologist stated she may have contracted the flu from the flu shot, as her immunity may have been down from a stomach virus earlier the week she had the shot. The patient denies having any fever, sore throat, cough or cold symptoms. She related that while experiencing the paralysis, she was told that she was hyper-reflexive. The patient has not recovered. From additional information received on 01Nov04 from a telephone contact with the initial reporter, it was reported that the pt has fully recovered and has returned to work. She became anxious and she hyperventilated after receiving the vaccine, which caused the other symptoms. She was seen by a neurologist at the hospital and a psychological consult was ordered. The reporter does not have the pt's hospital records, but has provided the name of the person whom to request this information.

Vaccine: MMR
Symptoms: Injection site induration, Injection site mass, Injection site warmth, Pyrexia, Rash
Clinical narrative: Patient was given her MMR with the live virus measles vaccine, which caused vaccine strain measles virus infection.  At that time, I was told by the doctor's office that she had chicken pox.  She developed a hard, hot lump at the injection site, which lasted for 2 months.  After the vaccination, she was very ill with a 105 degree fever, followed by a whole body rash.  I never believed it was chicken pox, as it was much more serious, and not itchy and blistering. I am reporting this now because I have heard "professionals" tell parents that this outcome is not possible.  I experienced it, and it is a very real possibility.  I consider it a severe reaction, and although I do not even know if this doctor's office is still around, I still wanted to share this incident.  Although I chose a vaccine from the drop list below, I am not sure what was actually given, except that she was given MMR. Per F/U with reporter-pt's mother, she recalls her child was very ill at the time with a high fever and rash. She was not seen in the ER or hospitalized. Mom does not recall if pt was seen by the MD or if she only called him. AE does not appear to meet criteria of "life threatening".
