chronic pain following tetanus vaccination

I received a tetanus vaccination in September 2006 in my left upper arm. I was told to expect soreness for 24 hours. I experienced severe pain in the first 24 hours and then since I have had moderate pain to movement and have actually been unable to regain full range of motion secondary to severe pain. I think I have suffered an injury to my brachial nerve, either inflammatory or traumatic. I received a medrol dose pack from my family doctor which helped temporarily. Has anyone else experienced a reaction to the tetanus toxoid similar to this and what did you do for it? I doubt that I would ever take the tetanus vaccine again.
