Re: Tetanus booster caused arthritis

I have had a slight paralysis on my right side and pain with any articulation of joints on the right side of my body since getting VAX's (MMR on right upper arm, Tdap and HepA and B-Twinvax on left upper arm) on Jan 20, 2011. At this point, my hand and arm are greatly improved, but everything from the knee down is stiff, hard to flex or sometimes unable to flex and extremely painful. I can no longer take a walk around our neighborhood. It is upsetting.

I am so sorry for your experience. Have you found anything that helps? I was told by docs that it had nothing to do with VAX's, whereas CDC and local health dept say it is a side effect called temporary to chronic arthritis. Tweet
