Menopur warning

hey ladies wanted to share a little tidbit of my day since I don't have any other ivf friends. I had a very bad reaction to menopur today. 
I woke up with my left arm burning and feeling like I had a very bad burn from the Palm of my hand to my elbow. Looks like I was the 1% that reacted bad to menopur. 
My re didn't even know that was a side effect. I have been taking benedryl which is helping but very interesting how these drugs make us feel
