The patient's concurrent conditions included arthtritis. Her medical history and concomitant therapies were not reported. On an unknown date in 2025 (reported as "before Easter"), the patient was vaccinated with Measles, Mumps, and Rubella (Wistar RA 27-3) Virus Vaccine, Live (M-M-R II), solution for injection administered as prophylaxis in the Right Arm and with Zoster Vaccine Live (reported as "shingles vaccine") booster, also administered as prophylaxis in the Left Arm, both vaccines were reconstituted with sterile diluent (dose, route of administration, lot # and expiration date were not reported). These vaccines were reconstituted with sterile diluent (lot # and expiration date were not provided). At the time of the vaccination, she did not have any side effects. On an unspecified date in 2025 (reported as "about a week later"), she began to experience pain in the side of her right thigh. She described this pain as feeling "like someone punched her". This pain then spread to the front of her right thigh, then to her groin muscle, she stated that the more she tried to stretch, the worse the pain was. In addition, she reported that the pain then spread to her right knee and her right shin. She said that "her knee felt like she knelt on a rock and her shin felt like she had shin splints". The patient did not have any tingling, numbness, or inflammation, just pain, she had tried taking muscle relaxers and icing the area but this had not helped. Furthermore, she was unable to sleep at night because of the pain (insomnia). Therefore, she went to urgent care as she did not have a primary care doctor, at urgent care, they took an x-ray of her "right butt cheek" (results not provided) and referred her to an osteopath. Afterwards, the osteopath then took x-rays of her back and spine (results not provided). The doctor thought that it was arthritis or sciatica, the patient stated that she had arthritis and she knew what that felt like and this felt different. On 29-Apr-2025 (reported as "today") she was going for an magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of her back. At the reporting time, the outcome of insomnia was unknown and had not recovered from the remaining events. The causal relationship between the events and the suspect vaccines/therapy was not provided. It was reported that the patient did not know if this had anything to do with the Measles, Mumps, and Rubella (Wistar RA 27-3) Virus Vaccine, Live (M-M-R II) vaccine that she received.
