Just Curious...

[Guest guest]

My daughter had chronic hives (with no known cause) for over a year starting at age one. No doctor was able to pinpoint what was triggering them, though I noticed they occurred when she would be sweating, so guessed it had something to do with her sweat. I even asked the doctor if she could be allergic to her own sweat and the doctor just laughed at me. She has been fully vaccinated through her 4 year old series.

My son (child #2) has had chronic vomiting and dehydration since he was almost 2. His vomiting never seems to be viral, and he dehydrates to the point of hospitalization and IV fluid treatment in a matter of hours. This was most prominent from around age 2 until 3 1/2. He has been fully vaccinated with the exception of his 4 year old series, which I have skipped.

My other son (child #3) is the one with chronic eczema, starting at around 3-4 months old. He received the first three series of shots, and none since (therefore no MM. or CKN POX.)

Has anyone else had any of these symptoms show up in a child after vaccination? I have read that eczema can be related, which makes sense--body ridding itself of toxins and all--but have never heard of the other two being related. But they both involve a bodily function that rids the body of toxins, i.e., sweating and vomiting. Am I on to something here? I have just been thinking on this for a while, and to have three children with three strange unrelated disorders that have no known cause just seems to be too much of a coincidence. The first two kids seem to have outgrown their hives and vomiting, but we are still dealing with the eczema, and many of you here have been helpful in suggesting things for that.

Thanks in advance, M. in Michigan
