I posted on another thread here (received flu shot in December.....) I have all same symptoms. Got my flu shot for 1st time on 10/8/09. Site was 1 finger below shoulder. After back and forths to Dr., finally got MRI. result is Partial Rotator Cuff Tear. This is likely what others have. Only can find out with MRI. Hope all get the MRI to find out. I don't know how long this will last. Very upsetting to say the least, that we are pained by the ineptness of our injectors. Anyone out there seek legal advice yet? I'm at this point only in Grievance with the HMO. Of course, they will do their own investigating to see if it was due to the injection. Hello!!! Pain immed. after injection. Never had pain in area before. Oh, forgot to mention, lvn used the needle normally used for the buttocks which is larger than the arm one. Well, at this point, I'm just asking for reimbursement of copays and any future copays. Good luck to all. GG
