Symptoms: Inflammation, Joint range of motion decreased, Pain, Pain in extremity, Ultrasound scan normal
Clinical narrative: When I awoke on  Saturday, 11/9/13 I had severe pain with any movement of my arm/shoulder.  On Wednesday, 11/13/13  I called my clinic and reported that I was still in significant pain and had very restricted range of motion in my arm.  I saw PA that day. She was on the phone with the CDC when I was in the office and told me she believed the pain and ltd ROM was the result of the vaccine being given too high in my arm.  On 11/20/13 the clinic recommended an ultrasound of the deltoid/muscles in my upper arm, and I had that done on 11/25/13. I was told the scan, which looked at my arm muscles but not my shoulder, was normal.  Dr. recommended physical therapy, and I started it on 12/2/13.  I was told that I had inflammation in the rotator cuff and what looked like a frozen shoulder.  I went to several PT appointments, was given and did exercises.  I consulted with an orthopedic doctor on 12/10/13, who confirmed that I had rotator cuff inflammation but said I did not have frozen shoulder.  Initially the PT seemed to help to a small degree, but by the end of December I found that even the gentle manipulation of PT made my arm ache for about 3 days afterwards.  I saw Dr. on 12/27/13.  He recommended a cortisone injection in my shoulder.  I received a cortisone injection from Dr. on 12/27/13.  After several days the pain subsided, almost disappeared for about a week, and then returned.  I saw Dr. and began acupuncture on 1/23/14.  I didn't get much relief from the first treatment.  I continue to have significant pain and very limited range of motion in my left arm.
