I have a rotator cuff injury, bursitis, and tendonitis from a seasonal flu shot vaccine given 8/29/09. It was given to high, directly into my tendon and rotator cuff. I had days where I could not move my arm at all, stiffness, pain, and pain at night when trying to sleep. I am now on "light duty" at work; can't lift anything overhead or more than 5lbs. It's such a headache with all the things I've been through. I was on a steroid dose pack first. Then, I had a steroid shot and physical therapy. Then, I had another steroid shot and "light duty." Now, I've finally gotten an MRI and am awaiting the results. The MD is thinking surgery!!
