Clinical narrative: Fluzone/Influenza vaccine Aventis Lot U1764AA,administered 12/14/2005 by nurse at about 12:30 PM. By 7:00 PM non-productive, hacking cough, bad headache, painful joints and generally seeming like having the flu. Next day stayed home on sick leave, developed an ear ache (R), with very swollen lymph glands on neck, from in front of ears downward to side of neck, with right side still swollen and some tenderness as of 12/20/2005 (six days later). Other symptons have gradually reduced with headache gone after 3 days, general joint pain after 2-3 days, some coughing still continues, and right side of neck and ear tenderness still somewhat of concern.  In the CDC VAERS data review by vaccine type, mfg, lot, the lot for my flu vaccine had 11 entries, and ranked among the 10 lots for all entries. Of note, 4 entries were in uninterrupted sequence, with the remaining 7 in close sequence. I received this dose as a (left-over/remaining dose) late injection because I had been deployed for Hurricane Katrina and had taken other shots for that deployment in early September, and the shots were just made available on a limited basis. I am concerned if this is an allergic reaction that I need to discuss with my physician, a known side effect of the vaccines, or something more specific. Thanks.
