I got the shot in my LT deltoid 01/05, Tuesday afternoon. Within minutes had nerve pain from LT shoulder to elbow. Resolved over 10-15 min. By that night I noticed some soreness in my axilla. Wednesday my left rib cage hurt so bad I couldn't take a deep breath for 2 days. I couldn't sit normally in a chair because I felt my insides were pushing up on my lungs and ribs. I couldn't lay flat. I had increased sinus congestion, everything tasted funny, things that weren't normally spicy were. Tested negative for covid again that Thursday night. Woke up in a pool of sweat on Friday and then the right side of my throat swelled up within minutes about 30 min after I got to work. Literally within a few minutes at work it felt like I had tonsillitis, and my right side of my throat was tender. The only reason I didn't freak out more was because I was amongst the CRNAs and was in the room across from me. Exhausted more every day from the night after getting it until I woke up from a nap Friday afternoon/evening. Everything was gone except the sore throat. That resolved on Sunday. Noticed residual left deltoid muscle weakness 01/11 when I couldn't hold up a foot to prep. Unable to raise arm where elbow is horizontal to shoulder. Unable to lift more than a couple pounds until 2 weeks later when I could lift 5 lbs. Took 2 weeks to get motor function back to that arm. was giving it a week before sending me to therapy in hopes of using stim therapy that they use for nerve palsy. I spoke to PA and PA and PA about it as well. Also noticed insidious onset of LT hand aching pain at the MPJ of the middle finger and RT DIPJ of the pinky (5th) finger. This pain was intermittent with movement.

Did not seek due to pandemic precautions. Spoke to two surgeons and several HCPs due to symptoms. They advised to continue monitoring and notify them if symptoms worsen.
