This patient presents with 3 week history of persistent left arm/shoulder pain on 4/12/2019.  He advised this began evening following receipt of 2nd Shingrix vaccination 3/11/2019. 1) 3/23/2017 Zostavax vaccine administered - c/o sore left deltoid x 1 day 2) 12/28/2018 Received first Shingrix vaccination (Friday morning). That evening (<8-12 hours post vaccination) he "felt poisoned" stating he was sleeping constantly, napped alot, had no energy, had to sit if awake as exhausted and overall felt very bad (non-descript feelings).  Sunday evening (day 3), he began to see blood in urine. Monday he went to ER for "red wine colored UA" and left flank pain with diagnosed with kidney stones.  He stated over next few days passing first a 5 mm then 2.5 mm stone.  It took about 5-7 days before he felt his normal self. He had no reoccurance of these issues. 3) 3/19/2019 he received his 2nd Shingrix vaccine again to left deltoid. he reported 6-8 hours later that day his arm was sore at injection site with no other reactins reported (denied fever, HA, n/v/d, myalgia, arthralgia, rashes, etc).  The next day he advised his arm was sore from elbow to shoulder as if he had worked out too much or too long (lactic acid build up), and the pain worsened if he lifted his arm to 90 deg angle laterally.  He advised this 1/10 discomfort with arm at side resting would and continues to be 2-3/10 discomfort with lifting today (4/12/2019).  He can shower, lift arms overhead, use left hand and perform all ADL, but is concerned the discomfort/pain will not resolve or may worsen.  He is due to training in Oct/Nov and is concerned pushups may worsen unknown underlying problem.  He does not take any pain meds or anti-inflammatory medication for shoulder pain.  He denies any trauma, injury, twisting, wt lifting, or recent travel overseas. Subjective  Follow up entries: Patient called medical office on 5/14/2019 and 5/30/2019  to advise he continues to experience left arm/shoulder pain same as 4/12/2019.  He advised he used Motrin 800 mg 3x/day for a week and the pain resolved but now that he has stopped, the discomfort has returned.  He continues to report issues with lifting (pain) and finger joints are tender to touch at sides of middle and ring fingers (joint closest to tips of fingers).  He is looking for a diagnosis for the issues so it can be treated and not just masked with Motrin.         ----    Patient requested x-ray results.
After about 15 min I started to get numbness, tingling , and swelling on my entire left side. It included difficulties seeing and lack of hearing on the left side. I could feel the "blood flow" in my head, which was super uncomfortable, because I was afraid of getting a stroke. I went to report to the Medical Doctor on side at the Convention Centre. They kept monitoring blood pressure and my responses. Nothing really was done. Symptoms stayed for about 1.5 hours the same. After that they decreased but  my side was still numb and swollen (not back to normal). However, I left to go home. After about 24 hours those symptoms were gone and only headache, fatigue remained. I received my second vaccination on 04/04/2021 at about 1:15P: Pfizer, Lot#ER8733 There, I used my right arm. Same thing, after about 15 min, I started to get tingling, numbness, difficulties hearing and seeing. Headache was worse than the first time. Again I remained under observation for about 1h. No results. Symptoms lessened. I went home. At night I developed nausea, severe kidney pain, had to vomit several times, and had a weird hot feeling inside my body=could feel my blood flow. It felt as if it was really hot. it was extremely scary, as I again was afraid of developing a stroke. Now, 2 days later, I still am feeling extremely weak, nauseous, headaches, some numbness.
Had the shot still got them/Suspected vaccination failure; still got them; This case was reported by a consumer via interactive digital media and described the occurrence of vaccination failure in a patient who received Herpes zoster (Shingles vaccine) for prophylaxis.   On an unknown date, the patient received Shingles vaccine. On an unknown date, unknown after receiving Shingles vaccine, the patient experienced vaccination failure (serious criteria GSK medically significant) and shingles. On an unknown date, the outcome of the vaccination failure and shingles were unknown.   It was unknown if the reporter considered the vaccination failure and shingles to be related to Shingles vaccine.     Additional Information: GSK receipt date: 24-June-2022 Reporter's comment: The case was received from the patient via interactive digital media. The patient had the shot and still got them. Additional supportive information: This case was considered as suspected vaccination failure since the details regarding the completion of primary vaccination schedule, time to onset and laboratory confirmation of shingles were unknown at the time of reporting. The follow-up could not be possible as no contact details were available.
By about 10 p.m. day of vaccine began to feel very tired & arm tender but not red, no hives, swelling, etc. Went to bed 11:30 p.m.; had nightmares (unusual) & woke up at 2:30 a.m. Decided to go to bathroom. Could barely stand or walk; knees weak, legs felt like jello, and both arms shaking pretty violently from shoulders to fingertips on arms (this was the very frightening part). Made it to bathroom & back to bed by holding on to walls, door knobs, etc. Got up 10 minutes later to throw up - a lot. Other than 5 or 10 minutes at a time, never could get back to sleep. At some point needed to throw up again. Finally got out of bed about 5:30 a.m. Drank an half an Ensure Plus & threw it up soon after. Diarhea, total exhaustion and naps about every hour through rest of Sunday. Monday (17 June) totally exhausted, diarrhea continued though not as frequent, nausea improved, totally listless & sleepy. This continued until Saturday 22 June when I finally was able to leave the house (i.e. the bathroom) long enough to drive to pharmacy and ask if they had other complaints and might have gotten a bad batch of the vaccine.  Had a long talk with pharmacy manager who said she'd never heard of such a severe reaction & took info so she could submit a form to you. She suggested I take Imodium & Align (or similar) which helped by that evening. The next day had a lot of gas all day and a spell of diarrhea from 11 p.m. to 130 a.m. Still felt exhausted. Intermittent periods of diarrhea or very loose stool and being unusually tired (I may be "old", but have always remained active) have continued over 2 months BUT each time I think I need to find a new family physician (having discovered my current one has retired), I have a day or two with no problems. I am just now getting back to more of my normal activities.      I'm not only more than a little upset that I've lost 2 months out of my life, but that I paid $169.99 to do it. On top of that, I think I would have to be insane to risk taking shot #2, so I guess that means I'm not even protected from shingles. (I did have the "original" shingles vaccine about 12 years ago as soon after chemotherapy as my oncologist felt it was safe; no reaction from it.)
