Symptoms: Asthenia, Drug administered at inappropriate site, Impaired driving ability, Injected limb mobility decreased, Injection site injury
Clinical narrative: I went into pharmacy for the flu shot. I requested preservative free version.  Afluria 2014-2015 syringe. Qty .5ML  The shot was administered very high on the shoulder. I believe it was injected into the joint area or bursa instead of the muscle. The shoulder joint area has been increasing painful by the hour, and I am unable to use the left arm in a full range of motion, and unable to drive the car with the left arm. I must make very slow movements due to the pain. There is very little strength in the shoulder now. Doctors office is closed, I will make an appointment as soon as possible. I notified the pharmacy, and I am waiting to hear from the pharmacy manager. I very highly suspect this is what is known as "Sirva"  (shoulder injury as result of vaccination).

Clinical narrative: Initial case received on 10 October 2014 from a consumer who is the patient. A 23 year old female patient with a history of wheat, gluten and latex allergy was vaccinated intramuscularly on 17 September 2014 with Influenza Quadrival A-B vaccine, batch number UI172AA into the left arm. On 09 September 2014, 30 minutes after the vaccination she experienced numbness and tingling in left side of her face and approximately 2 hours later also had numbness and tingling in her left arm. Two hours later it spread to right arm also and by midnight she called the Pharmacist because her entire torso was numb and tingly. She was advised to take two BENADRYL and a TYLENOL. She slept until 4 pm the next day. When she woke up, she had numbness and tingling in her arms and face and her tongue was numb. She was taken by her grandmother to an urgent care facility where she was given epinephrine. Her throat became tight and so she was sent to the emergency department next door. She was treated with SOLU MEDROL and was seen by a Neurologist. She was evaluated and had "left sided deficient" with a diagnosis of "possible GBS". She was placed on a 2-week neuro watch. The numbness and tingling started to fade away. The patient was treated with a Prednisone regime. She was seen by a primary care physician and a neuro evaluation was done on an unreported date. She was improving but was still very tired, sleeping 16 hours a day. On September 29, 2014 she developed a migraine headache and again was seen by the primary care physician on September 30, 2014. She was told to take IMITREX when she got home. About 30 minutes after taking IMITREX she experienced crushing chest pain and was "diaphoric". This lasted about 10 minutes, then went away. She was seen again by the physician on October 2, 2014 and was given TORADOL IV. She had numbness and tingling to left side of face and hand. She was sent to the ER and was given Dexamethasone, BENADRYL, and REGLAN IV. After about one hour, the treatment didn't help so she was given Morphine IV. The numbness and tingling were gone but the headache continued. She was seen by a neurologist on October 7, 2014. The reporter stated that the doctor "suspects something in the Flu shot triggered the nervous system to react against her own body". Her right optic nerve was inflamed- (occipital neuralgia) and she was given an unspecified nerve block for the migraine. She was in Dexamethasone orally and still has a few seconds of numbness in her face. At the time of the report she was still experiencing electrical shocks throughout her body which lasted a few seconds. She also had blurred vision. Laboratory tests were not reported. The patient outcome was unknown. Documents held by sender: None.
