my wife had to get the vaccine as part of her US immigration medical exam.. the next day after getting the vaccine, her joints started to hurt.. and now a week later, the pain only got worse. this is not fair to her, and she is suffering.

I have never had the chickpox and was required to have the shot because I will be working in the health field. I had the shot 10 days ago and now have a large rash area on my arm, with fever and had to have antibiotics for the infection. If you have a gut feeling about not having the vaccine--listen to it!

This is very sore at the injection site and hurts my 14-y-o son to lift his arm -- he doesn't have full range of motion. This is 3 days later and counting.
