Symptom narrative

Severe pain beginning the next day (9/13/2024) and continuing to present. Limited mobility especially in raising arm overhead. Pain with sitting if elbow not supported. I saw my orthopedist on 10/29/2024 and was given an injection for pain. We discussed the possibility of SIRVA as there had been no trauma or pain in my LEFT shoulder until receiving this vaccine. I shared with my doctor that I felt like the vaccine was placed too high when I was given it. Symptoms improved for a couple of months and then returned severely around the end of January 2025. Returned to the orthopedist for follow up care and was sent for imaging. Followed up with Orthopedic PA shoulder specialist and surgery was recommended.
