For what it's worth, in my case, I"ve been sure all along (and knew the instant the nurse "stabbed me"), that it was an improper injection - not the vaccine itself. My shot was below the deltoid, where there's not much between skin and bone, and I'm sure the needle hit the bone and/or nerve. It's been almost 9 months, and it still hurts. I don't have full range of motion, and significantly weaker in my left arm.
I haven't had a chance to get an MRI (deployed to Iraq since), but will do that when I can.
I'd sure love to hear of some kind of success story - where this kind of pain was somehow resolved... for now I survive with a steady diet of Aleve...
