He also appeared very pale in color. I gave him ibuprofen for the pain as instructed via phone from the pediatrician in office that day and he rested as best he could. When awaking the following morning, he stated he could not sleep due to discomfort in his shoulders in particular. I took him to pediatrician where shot was administered for diagnosis. After examining my son, doctor believes he 'may have had an adverse reaction to Hepatitis B vaccine and that he should not receive HBV #3." He noted some swelling at his knees and explained he had never before seen any reaction to this vaccination in his practice. the word "arthritis" was written in my son's chart and we were sent on our way with little word as to what to watch for or what to do. It is now 6 days following this injection and my son continues to suffer from pain in his joints. He cannot stand for long periods of time or walk any length without having to rest, due to the pain in his knees. He notes continual pain in his shoulder/left one especially...even with 600mg ibuprofen pumped into his system. I am making a followup appointment with the pediatrician to see what else might be done on behalf of my son. He has NEVER experienced this type of pain before in 15 years on this earth. I pray daily that my son's pains are temporary and will subside with time. I pray he will not have to suffer for the rest of his life from this...as I have been reading about many others who have due to this vaccine and/or other vaccinations mandated by law.
