Symptom narrative

Customer said she was in-between jobs and was no longer insured. She went to get a flu shot and the explained that the cost was $89. She explained that she didn't have insurance and the pharmacist then offered a cheaper version of the flu shot. She said the next day, she started feeling bad, and then started getting sick. She said the following Sunday, and started getting really tired and felt really weird. She went to bed, started sweating, had a fever, and she called her neighbor who is a doctor. Around 5:00 a.m., she started having a seizure. EMS was called and she was rushed to the hospital. She spent a few days there and now has a $8,900 bill. She said she feels that pharmacy gave her a cheaper version of the flu shot and this really made her sick. She said that she's not sure why they would give this to people if it would make them sick and wants her bill paid and to be compensated for her trouble.
