My husband got his about a month ago. No negative affects except a comment about the muscle at the injection site being sore. Went away after a day.

He is in remission which I'm sure is a factor.

Default Hi Dee,
I got mine week before last but no long term effect. I consider myself in remission also. That might make a difference and I would have gotten some lidocaine injections to calm it down had it started up again.

Hope it calms down for you soon.

I always ask for the flu shot in my fanny. No muscle to mess with, well they would have to go way, way, way down to get to muscle.

I've decided to forget about it this year.
hope tomorrow is better,
