I got the flu shot in Weatherford, TX on October 24, 2013. Today is November 30, 2013, and I have been back to the doctor twice now for the pain in my arm, shoulder, back and neck. I cant' sleep on the right arm, can't lift it over my head, can't get comfortable in any situation. The first time I went back, two weeks after the shot, doctor told me I was having an allergic reaction and put me on steroids and pain pills. As long as I took the meds it brought my pain down substantially, but did not take it away completely. When the pills ran out the pain came right back. I can't sleep at night and went back to the doctor and this time he said it couldn't be the flu shot :o( and I know it is. He put me back on steroids but not pain pills so I take ibuprofen every fours hours. This is very discouraging to me, especially when I read that this could last years.
