Hello there, I too am suffering terribly with arm and shoulder pain after the H1N1 vaccine. It is exactly 2 months today and its only getting worse. I received my shot at a local pharmacy where they have instructed the pharmacists on how to give the vaccine. When mine was given, not only did the pharmacist seem to place it high, but she wiggled it around in my muscle because all of the vaccine serum wouldnt dispense when she pushed it in straight!
I too have gone thru steroids, NSAIDS, cortisone shots, vicodin and now percoset to allow some pain relief. I attempted physical therapy last week and the two sessions made it 1000 times worse. I am trying to keep my shoulder and arm moving but the pain and spasms are almost unbearable. This is worse than having a baby!! I have an MRI on Thursday and like many in this post, I hope they find something they can fix rather than have it be just muscle and nerve issues that I have to endure. Its great to read all the posts and know Im not alone. The doctors wont admit the connection to the shot or the placement of the shot, but the more I read, the more I know this is true. Thanks for the support and I too will file with the CDC now that I have the information.
