Stop taking shots!: Perhaps you are having an allergic or autoimmune response to something in the injections. Each time you do this the response from your body is amplified. This is called an anamnestic response, and could be potentially dangerous. Whatever you are trying to accomplish could probably be done in a much safer fashion with oral supplements.

What's your question: It looks like your question was cut off before completed so I am not sure what it is. Vitamin shots can cause temporary discomfort but it should not be severe or prolonged. Were these shots given in the muscle or iv? Of course you should also address your question to the doctor who gave (or ordered) the shots...
