Anon,

I'm so sorry this happened to you. Where in the arm did the tech give you the shot? One of our moderators said that a nurse or doctor said the shot is best given the width of three fingers down from the shoulder. Was yours much lower than that?

Here are a couple of other threads where EmpowHer readers have had the same experiences:

You posted this a couple of weeks ago and we missed it (so sorry). Are you getting any relief now?
