Dear Anonymous Oct 29th 2010. We are so sorry this happened to you too!
Is it just me or has anyone else had the thought there must be a better way! My shot giver introduced herself as "Glenda," the good witch! I can't seem to forget. lol
1. Does this type of injury occur with the same frequency with other types of vacinations?
2.) Why isn't the shot placed in the tricep? Seems like more tissue there and less nerve to target?
3.) Better yet, why not the top of the glute? Most of us have a little more tissue there as well. It would give the inexperienced shot givers better odds at hitting flesh than nerve or connective tissue. Is there some reason not to use a place on the body with less potential damage than using the arm?
Pat, You have any words of wisdom about shot placemnet? Why shoot this sensitive area that can cause so much damage and pain.
