Swelling of lymph node in back of the head after 4 days, went away, then autoimmune reaction which consisted of swollen lymph nodes in back of head, unable to move neck, unable to lay head down to sleep, headaches
Chills, very cold, shivers, severe shaking with tight, prolonged body clenching, head ache, dizziness, sharp pains stabbing in back and chest, shortness of breath due to long body spasms.  Pain to hamstrings, location of shots in both arms provided unusually deep ache and soreness....far above normal.  Lasted till' about 4 AM the following morning.  Would have gone to ER but could not drive with nature of symptoms.  I went to Med. Center and they advised they did not have the flu shot strong enough for my age group....advised I go to pharmacy.  Pharmacy said that I should also have the children's level pneumonia shot in conjunction with the flu shot, which I did....one in each arm.  This was a miserable experience; not a light annoying one.  I am not getting answers from the Clinic regarding how I should proceed next year.  I will be hard pressed to get another shot without some direction.  I occasionally experience lower back tightness but today it is quite tight and aching....more than usual...not certain if it is related to last night but the level of cramping and spasms could very well have strained my muscles....hope to get a call or some direction.
Later that day I had the worse headache ever. It was the number 2 worst headache I've ever experienced. The headache lasted about a week and a half but it wasn't as intense as it was initially. It gradually got lessened but it was constant and persistent. I had a pain and pressure at my fore head and my eyes hurt as in the muscle of my eye. I also had pain in the injection site with  muscle soreness but that went away quickly. The itchiness was different than other vaccines and lasted for about a day. I also started to get congestion in my sinuses and my ears. I also experienced pain when trying to swallow. That lasted about 3 days. It felt like my glands were swollen. The combination of the headache and the ear pain and sinus pressure made me unable to work. Up until that point I was taking ibuprofen to manage the pain and maybe 1 or 2 doses of Benadryll which is what I usually take when I get allergy symptoms like itchy throat. It did not work, I contacted the doctor who said I had a sinus infection. I went to the doctor on 04/22/2021 and received antibiotics (amoxicillin) which lasted 10 days. Around this time, I developed a cough which is still present. The antibiotics did not help, the doctor then gave me steroids on 5/12/2021. They do not seem to be helping. I also took Aleve sinus medicine as well. The cough worsened and I lost my voice around 05/12/2021. My doctor said it was drainage that was causing my cough.

Arm swollen, red and hot and very itchy. Developed rash all the way down to elbow.
At first I thought it was just a sore arm or sore muscle. The next day I could not lift my arm over my head. After about a month I decided to see a doctor. The shot left a mark on my arm and when I showed my doctor I was told that they think the shot was administered too low. I had to have x-rays done. The doctor did not see any nerve damage. They suggested I needed to keep working with my arm otherwise I would end up with a frozen shoulder. I had to do physical therapy for my arm. This pain lasted about 6 months. My arm still hurts but very little and I feel like it will go away eventually.

Cellulitis of the scrotum, Scrotal edema, Epididymitis, bilateral, in a 61-year-old male who has been dealing with epididymitis. He within the last week has had a CT and ultrasound. He is following with urology. He has been taking oral Levaquin. He saw urology yesterday. He followed up in the primary care clinic today, and was sent to the emergency department due to increased scrotal swelling/cellulitis. He is a diabetic and therefore we discussed Fournier's gangrene. I did recommend that they immediately proceed with a CT scan of the abdomen pelvis to include the scrotum. He is afebrile and white blood cell count is normal. If he does have evidence of Fournier's gangrene and needs surgical intervention. Certainly if this is a cellulitis it is less emergent and we will have them talk to the patient's urologist to determine most appropriate treatment plan.
I had a little blood in my urine. I went to the doctor. He done a cyscopopy and found a stone in my bladder. I had to get the stone removed.
