Injection was done at 9:50a on Tuesday morning. within 15 minutes of her injection a very thick puffy rash along her leg beginning from injection site up towards her mid belly began. Leg stiffness, leg pain, and inability to walk due to her leg not being able to have weight on it happened immediately following her rash appearing. We placed warm compresses and gentle circular motions to the leg, gave Benadryl and a topical antihistamine to her leg. At 9:15pm that night, she spike a high fever of 104.1 that was not responsive for several hours to tylenol or ibuprofen to drop the fever. It took several hours of cold baths and rags to get the fever down. She had a blank stare in her face and didn't seem as though she was hearing us. At 2:30a her fever finally dropped to 102.6 and stayed there the remaining of the day (even with around the clock ibuprofen and tylenol in her system). She began vomiting off and on until 5pm that Wednesday night. Her rash spread and her leg remained stiff and painful to touch. By day 3 (Thursday) her fever is completely gone and despite the rash and her leg having a hard time walking from the vaccine site, she is otherwise okay.
No illness.
None.
Benadryl for allergies

My primary physician refused to run tests as they didn't see this to be an "abnormal Reaction"
