Severe pain in left arm, radiating from deep in shoulder joint and to elbow, and all the way down the arm, to the fingers.  Strongest pain in first few days.  Pain is now less but there is still sharp pain across front of arm from shoulder to above the elbow, which feels like tendon or muscle pain but if very sharp, and lingers.  This happens if I lift arm up too far or also if I use the muscle required to pull my pants up. I also experienced many of the other side effects for the first 3 days and they subsided.  I had a pnuemonia vaccine in 2000 and had 3 days of side effects, including severe arm pain, but then it subsided. This time it was much worse and it has not gone away yet.  I will be making an appointment to see a doctor if it does not go away.  If this is considered to be a normal and acceptable side effect I think there needs to be a better warning of the possibility it might occur, especially for those that have had it before.
