Is that not a common side effect of all vaccines? I can't think of a time when I haven't had to take Advil for a couple days after getting the flu shot due to body aches.

I don't think pain serious enough to warrant medication is common at all. I used to administer flu vaccines in a former life, and I've never heard of anyone having such a strong reaction. Most people have some very mild soreness in their arm at most.
