Diagnosis of Polymyalgia Rheumatica (PMR) in early September 2021 following referrals to Neurology and Rheumatology departments.    Initially thought issue was ergonomic related based on change of profession.  Noticeable, gradual increase in pain and discomfort with approximate onset early to mid-April, 2021 directly following vaccine. Eventual intense constant pain in both upper arms, both upper legs, and buttocks (i.e., lower back) which persists and continues to this day.  When laying down to sleep the pain becomes full body, excruciating, and is only alleviated by standing. Bending over at the waist, for example, to pick something up off the floor is painful.  o Lifting arms up above shoulders, for example, to get something off of a shelf, is very challenging and painful. o Pulling a shirt over head is really difficult and painful. o Getting socks and shoes on and off is very difficult and painful. o Picking things up off of the ground is extremely difficult and painful. o Self-cleanup after a bowel movement as intensely difficult and painful. o Getting up off of the toilet is also very challenging due to the pain and weakness.  Must onto the tub to pull self up. o Cannot straighten collar because can't reach up and behind head. o Cannot shampoo back of head because can't reach up and behind my head. o Sitting for any length of time has become very uncomfortable, with a gradual build of pain only relieved by standing. o Rolling over in bed during the middle of the night is excruciating. o Getting in and out of vehicles is very difficult, especially the work vehicle, a van, which is high off the ground.  I have to pull himself up into the seat by using the handle attached to the door frame because I have no leg strength with which to push myself up. o Struggling to hold arms up on the steering wheel of work van which is larger and higher up than ones in regular vehicles. o Struggling to open and close the sliding side door of work van. o Navigating any stairs going up and down is very painful and difficult; I must go one leg, one step at a time. o Overall feeling of physical weakness with normal tasks becoming difficult to execute and associated with a marked increase in pain (e.g., lifting a box, straightening collar, trying to get a shirt over my head, carrying/loading/unloading groceries, etc.). o Balance issues (e.g., unsteady when changing direction while walking). o Pain can be breathtaking, in the literal sense of gasping for air due to the intensity of pain, which sometimes is so severe that it is dizzying (e.g., when bending over). o Newly diagnosed high blood pressure condition as of Office Visit with Dr. on 6/24/2021.  Pain in left arm is ten times worse than right arm when bent backwards.    No family history of PMR.  Onset of disease coincided directly with administration of vaccine.

Client scheduled for immunization clinic on 12/13/2021. Client provided vaccine record to the Health Department prior to the immunization clinic. The record was reviewed and entered into immunization system. Prior to immunization clinic, PHNs request copy of client's record to review. Photocopy, that was on file at the Health Department, provided to PHNs. Based upon the record provided, PHNs reached out to medical director, as well as another Public Health Department for assistance on determining what vaccines the client should receive. Due to the record provided to PHNs and what was entered into the immunization system, it was determined that client needed Tdap, MMR, Polio, Varicella, Hep A, meningo, and Flu vaccines. Client was given Hep A, Influenza, Menveo, Bexsero, MMR, and Boostrix as client?s mother reported a history of chicken pox for client. Client scheduled for upcoming vaccination clinic on 2/21/2022. At this time, another copy of the client?s record from past was provided to PHNs. This record contained another photocopied page that was not present on 12/13/2021, and it was noted on the additional information provided that client had received a TD booster on 04/14/2017, and therefore the Boostrix dose given on 12/13/2021 would not have been needed. In order not to miss a vaccination opportunity, client was vaccinated based upon the vaccine record information that was available on 12/13/2021.
She woke me at about 4:15am and told me she was freezing, she was shivering in the bed even though she had a blanket on, so I went and got her another blanket and put some socks on her feet. She went back to sleep until about 6:30am when she woke up and said she felt like she was burning up, so I took 1 blanket and her socks off. I took her temperature at 6:45am and it was 100.2 degrees,  so I went to the store to buy her some Tylenol. I gave a cracker and a Tylenol with a glass of water. She went back to sleep until 9:45am, when she woke back up and I took her temperature, it was at 99.7 degrees, she ate another cracker and drank some water and some Diet Coke. She went back to sleep and at 11:35 she woke up and told me she was hungry so I made her some chicken noodle soup and 1/2 of a hotdog. Her temperature at that time was 98.6 degrees.
