Hi All, I'm am located in Australia and unfortunately cannot seem to find a site here that is discussing the same problem. I had my flu injection four weeks ago and am experiencing that same arm pain that most of you are describing. The pain appears to be in the muscle running between the shoulder and the elbow. The pain gets worse when slightly rotating my arm left or right., lifting my arm up and reaching behind. By the end of most days my lymph glands in my arm pits ache as well. Every day tasks are becoming unbearable and I am feeling very frustrated. I have visited my GP who took a blood test and sent me for an ultra sound on my arm. I had that today but nothing showed up. I have an appointment with my GP next Tuesday to find out the results of the blood tests. Also I would add my comment after having the shot was that it seemed high up on my arm than I have ever had before. Thanks for listening and if there is others from Australia reading this and know if there is a site here please let me know or maybe it is a bit soon as we have only been in the flu injection season for a short time.
