Symptoms: Activities of daily living impaired, Joint range of motion decreased, Musculoskeletal pain, Musculoskeletal stiffness, Pain
Clinical narrative: I received the flu shot in my left deltoid, as in other years. However this year, the typical soreness developed into limited range of motion in my left shoulder that persists today. My shoulder is stiff, gets "stuck," and then must "crack back in place." It is very sore in the morning, and sometimes I awaken in the middle of the night in pain as I turn in bed. It is difficult to do activities of daily living like dressing, bathing, etc. I am not sure if the needle hit a nerve or tendon or why this happened. But this is very debilitating. I  am hoping that time will heal. Note that I had received the Dtap vaccine in the same location about a week earlier. I specifically asked the administrator if that would pose a problem and she said "no."

Clinical narrative: Aug 22nd body started to itch --> rash. Tried hydrogen peroxide baths & BENADRYL at home. 8/27/office visit, prednisone, loratadine & hydrocortisone prescribed - rash went away. As soon as prednisone complete, rash returned. Prednisone ordered. Try swimming in Chlorinated pool. Itching & rash continue to plaque pt. On August 15, 2012, I went to my medical doctor for a routine physical. I am a 55 year old male. I try to eat healthy foods and exercise on a regular basis. It recommended that I have a tetanus shot. I agreed. It was a triple shot- T-dap. On the next Wednesday, my body started to itch, then the next day I got a rash. The rash was on my abdomen and gradually spread to my arms. I tried a hot bath with a little Hydrogen Peroxide in it. It was somewhat soothing. Then I look some BENDARYL. Over the weekend I continued to do my work as the pastor of two churches. By Monday I was feeling pretty bad. I had chills and was very week, to the point that I had my wife call to make an appointment with my doctor. The appointment was with the nurse practitioner. She was convinced that my wife may have changed laundry detergents, that I had come in contact with something that was giving me an allergic reaction. The NP gave me a Rx for steroids (prednisone) and Lidocaine to help me get over the allergic reaction. In a couple of days the itching and rash were gone. I did not event think about the possibility of a reaction to the vaccine until a few days later. Then when I looked at the possible reactions to the T-dap vaccine on the sheet given to me by my Md it became clear to me that the symptoms that I was experiencing were all on the list (itching, hives, chills and weakness). After the Prednisone was gone, the itching came back and the rash was also starting again. I contacted my MD and another Rx for Prednisone (Methprednisone) was ordered. That Rx was completed in 6 days and September 10 the itching started again. I used the hydrocortisone cream (1%) before going to be to decreased the itching. It helped. For the past few days I have gone swimming at the YMCA as the cooler chlorine water seems to help with the itching. This has been a pretty miserable experience for me. September 12, in the evening I applied some of the 1% Hydrocortisone at around 11pm. Soon after, the itching around my waistline and abdomen became pretty intense. September 13, 12-3pm itching is moderate. September 17, 2012 in the evenings the itching continues to be moderate. The itching is around the abdomen and a rash continues to occur. The rash is in the front and on my back. September 21, 2012 the itching and the rash are not getting better. My abdomen is covered with the rash. I am requesting that a report be filled with the VAERS listed on the T-dap "Vaccine Information Statement."
