Guest guest Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 Hi Alyssa, welcome to the group. Glad you have found it so helpful already. If Carson is allergic to an ingredient in the vaccines, it may never be pinpointed. The next vaccine just might be the one that could kill him. Ask those top ranked specialist's to take full responsibility for any vaccine they give, by putting it in writing. See how far you will get. > I just joined the group today and already I have found it very helpful. I > would like to know if anyone's child has had an experience similar to my > son's.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 Wow! You are so fortunate to still have your precious baby with you! I can't believe the doctor's want to play " guinea pig " with your baby to see what happens next!!! Outrageous!! Then if the next shot would kill him, they'll say " Ooops, he must have had some underlying illness " or whatever... the vaccines rarely get the blame. All I can suggest is find a good classical homeopath to help undo the damage that the vaccines have already caused. I wouldn't trust these doctors as far as I could throw them!! As far as the diseases themselves, learn about them and your fear will diminish. Having a good classical homeopath on your side to help you over the hills and valleys of childhood illnesses is your best bet (and providing a healthy diet... hopefully breast milk, to keep your baby's immune system strong and healthy). Childhood diseases are NOT the automatic death sentence that doctor's and pHARMaceutical companies would have us believe. Here are a couple of sites for you to check out: http://www.whale.to/vaccines/risk.html http://www.nccn.net/~wwithin/vaccine.htm I'm sooo sorry your baby had to suffer. You have come to the right place for information and support. Check out the list's files and if you need more links on the dangers of vaccines, the people here have a ton!! All the best to you and baby Carson. Kay Anyone with similar reactions to vaccinations? I just joined the group today and already I have found it very helpful. I would like to know if anyone's child has had an experience similar to my son's. Carson is four months old and has had horrible reactions after his 2 month and 4 month vaccinations. At the same time, I am scared about him getting one of these diseases. I would appreciate any information or advice that you have. I have done research on the Internet and it is scary. I then talk with the medical professionals who scare me about the diseases. Thank you, Alyssa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 Hi, Alyssa.... DO NOT GIVE YOUR SON AN PRESCRIPTIONS " suggested " . More drugs...and yes, he could be further damaged. You know that screaming you described...the french describe it as brain damage in progress. Some one help me out here, I can't remember how to spell it, " cry encyphylic " ? research and learn as much as you can. Be sure to check out my link below on the " ingredients " of the vaccines from CDC. --------signature------------- Are you aware that aborted fetal tissue is used in the development and manufacture of vaccines? Read more about this and other startling facts about vaccines at http://www.cogforlife.org and http://www.vaccinetruth.org Here's a list of vaccine ingredients (chick embryo, formaldehyde, aluminum hydroxide, mercury, aborted fetus tissue, gelatin-boiled pig skin, monkey kidney tissue, boiled cow skin, coagulated horse blood...etc) from Centers for Disease Control http://www.cdc.gov/nip/publications/pink/Appendices/A/Excipient.pdf Ask the US government what your pediatrician can't answer nipinfo@...

I > feel like they want to play vaccine roulette. that's what it is. do a google search on shaken baby syndrome and see all the people who are in prison because their babies died within hours and weeks after their babies' first or second or third round of vaccines. then read all the medical reports that show so clearly that " shaken baby syndrome " is an invention of the pharma lobby... > At the same time, I am scared about him getting one > of these diseases. I > would appreciate any information or advice that you > have. I have done > research on the Internet and it is scary. I then > talk with the medical > professionals who scare me about the diseases. okay, first of all, you need to learn everything about each disease that you are scared of. not only from a medico point of view, but also from " alternative " point of views, such as homeopathy, acupuncture, vitamin c etc. for example, find out how tetanus is treated. also find out the statistics, ie. how many people contract tetanus in a year, how many die, how many survive, and how the survivors were treated, how old they were etc. find out EVERYTHING. i can almost promise you, this will kill the fear in you. :-) once you have that knowledge, you can laugh into any MD's face and tell him/her the facts you know! and that's when it starts getting fun *g*. eventually, your opponent (ie the pediatrician or any other medical professional) will say something stupid, believe me, i've been there. when my youngest (born in california) was 2 months old, we returned to the UK for a 2 week holiday. his pediatrician absolutely urged me to to get his vaccines 'up to date', ie diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus and a hep b booster. so i asked why and he answered that diphtheria especially was rampant in the UK. considering i had only left the UK 3 months previously (at 8 months pregnant) i couldn't help laughing and asked him if he'd ever been to the UK. so he said no he hadn't been there, but he's keeping up to date with this and that and the other " professional " paper, so he knows for sure. so i openly laughed into his face and told him that in my 14 years living in the UK i had NEVER come across any case of either diphtheria, or tetanus and the pertussis cases i'd come across had been so popular that the kids were inundated with visitors just to make sure that as many kids as possible would contract it while they were young. the ped turned bright red and then pale and ushered me out of his practice while muttering he never wanted to see me again. he didn't. :-) please feel free to ask any questions here on list, there are plenty who can answer pretty much anything when it comes to vaccines. and please please please wait until you're absolutely sure that you're comfortable with vaccinating your little one any further before you allow it. don't let them bully you by telling you that it's law, because there are exemptions in every state! if you can let us know which state you live in, someone here will be able to tell you the choices for exemptions. claudia ===== http://www.internationalsymposium.co.uk http://realsalt.co.uk http://www.freeyurko.bizland.com/ http://www.he-ed.org.uk " The mind is like a parachute.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 Dear Alyssa, First of all, thank God that you have questioned... many parents do not. If Carson were my baby I would not allow any more vaccinations. I presume you are not particularly interested in knowing which component is hurting him if finding out means hurting him again. You have already made the decision not to have the pertussis vaccination anymore and most drs would say that whooping cough is a dreadful disease etc. Well our little girl had it and gave it to all of us (she is not vaccinated, nor is daddy but I am and so is our son) Daddy did not get it as he had it as a child. The doctors said she had whooping cough, I had bronchitis and our son had croup.... These childhood diseases are manageable. You can educate yourself on them. There is a lot of information right here in the files of this group's archives and lots more elsewhere. You can learn how to diagnose and treat these illnesses just as you already do for the common cold and toothache. If your son is basically healthy and well nourished, these diseases are absolutely nothing to fear. You have come to the right place, Alyssa. Many people here will give you time and listen to your fears, help you work through the information, relate to the doctors and find any information you need. Do not hesitate to ask for help. My prayers are yours Suzy > I just joined the group today and already I have found it very helpful. I > would like to know if anyone's child has had an experience similar to my > son's.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 Hi Alyssa. Welcome! I am in the Chicago area too. PLEASE call Homefirst in Lincolnwood at (847) 679-8336. Ask to speak to Dr. Meyer Eisenstein directly. He runs the practice and is WONDERFUL! He once called me at my home to help me with my exemption form, just because he is super nice and believes in choice. He is a doctor and a lawyer and is very knowledgeable. just tell him your story and tell him you need help. They also offer free consultations in their offices around Chicagoland and are very generous with their time. I know it is scary, but remember to get your baby healthy first, then think. You do not have to make any decisions immediately, so try to breathe and most of all, give your baby lots of time. Hopefully Dr. Eisenstein can help you get some facts. These diseases you are hearing about are not as common as they would have you believe.You DO have choices. I have had life threatening allergic reactions and what you (and others) have described is quite different. I agree with whomever said this is more like encephalitis. With an allergy there is severe swelling. Breathing and voice shuts down before you pass out or turn colors. Usually there is a raised rash over the entire body, severe diarrhea and vomiting. I think the problem is: even the doctors are guessing. You were dead on when you used the word " roulette " . Who knows what causes it or if the next reaction may be much worse! Good Luck!

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 Alyssa, I carpool with a mom who thought she would try it one more time, and the third time she wound up with a brain damaged child. I hope you are able to be strong and fight for the health of your child, who may already suffer consequences from your previous decisions to vaccinate. I am sorry to say this so bluntly, but we as parents are responsible for what happens. I say this knowing that my son's autism could have been avoided. > I just joined the group today and already I have found it very helpful.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 >For any medical professional to even suggest something like this in my estimation is malpractice. They can have all the conferences they want - it's not going to change Carson's adverse reactions to vaccinations.< Allysa, When children are damaged by vaccines the AMA has now convinced doctors that it is the defect in the child, not the vaccine! So if something was to happen to your child after getting another vaccine/vaccines they will just say it would have happened anyway. But do you believe that? Why not take your chances of him getting ill/disorder/worse without vaccines? Chances are he will be fine. I will caution you though that the reaction you described could have damaged him already, and he may have neurological disorder manifest when he is older. And since that is the case, you shouldn't let them give him anymore vaccines. I would find out if you have a personal exemption from vaccines in your state, and if not, find a doctor who will agree with you that he shouldn't have anymore because of these reactions and sign a medical exemption for you. I want to also say that this is only my own opinion and not the opinion of or vaccinations (DOT) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 >I am just nervous about something showing up down the road like so many stories I have read about.< I posted earlier and told you we continued to get the vaccines until the final round knocked out his everything! I want to encourage you that if you refrain from vaccines, insure he gets proper nutrition, love and education, he will do fine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to believe that too. Until I read up on the diseases themselves. I would highly recommend " Vaccine guide " by Randall Neustaedter. It's a great book, about $13 on amazon ($10 used). It will give you an unbiased look at each disease we vaccinate against and will help you make your choice. I'm taking a class using this book right now as I'm 10 weeks pregnant with my first child. I already don't vaccinate my dog since I learned about vaccinosis and my child's health is infinitely more precious of course, hence my research.

Your weapon: learn about the diseases and make up your own mind. Once you know, they can't scare you anymore. They have no power. Good luck and let us know how Carson is doing and what you decide.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2004 Report Share Posted January 15, 2004 I thought I would give a quick update about Carson. We met yesterday with a Pediatric Allergist. I was bracing myself for her advice to continue with the vaccinations. She actually recommended to stop the immunizations. She said as a doctor and a mother she wouldn't feel comfortable continuing after Carson's reactions from his 2 and 4 month immunizations. I felt so relieved to hear the news. Thanks to everyone for their advice and support. Alyssa Anyone with similar reactions to vaccinations? I just joined the group today and already I have found it very helpful. I would like to know if anyone's child has had an experience similar to my son's. Carson is four months old and has had horrible reactions after his 2 month and 4 month vaccinations. The first was with his 2 month shots. Five hours later he began to hysterically scream. This lasted for 5-10 minutes. Then he completely collapsed, turned greenish-blue, stopped or was lightly breathing and had no tone in his body. He was lifeless. We called 911 and went to Northwestern Hospital in an ambulance. He was coming back around and they sent us in another ambulance to Children's Memorial Hospital. He was there for three days and they did every test under the sun. It was determined that it was a reaction to the Pertussis. Believing this, we removed the Pertussis from the DTaP vaccine and he received his 4 month shots last Monday. 5 hours later, he woke out of a sleep screaming. He projectile vomited, turned ghostly white and became lethargic. We rushed to the hospital again and I could not get his attention in the car. After 20 minutes or so, he came out of it. For the next 48 hours, he hardly ate or slept and was crying the entire time. We took him to Infectious Diseases last week. They recommended that we take him to a Pediatric Allergist, but also recommended he continue with the vaccines which I do not feel comfortable with yet. He said he definitely recommends that we don't give him anymore Pertussis. We already knew that... It was already taken out and he still had a bad reaction. We have an appointment tomorrow with Chicago's top ranked Pediatric Allergist and Immunologist. The plan is to have a conference call between my pediatrician, Infectious Diseases, and the Allergist to determine the vaccination schedule going forward. It is pretty common for the medical profession to preach " the benefits outweigh the risks with vaccinations " and I believe this is true for the majority of the population. However, Carson is susceptible to something in the vaccines. I feel like Carson is at a higher risk of something happening again. The doctor suggested to do one shot at a time to pin point which vaccine it is. This still means that he will have a reaction in my mind though and what if it is a really bad one. I feel like they want to play vaccine roulette. At the same time, I am scared about him getting one of these diseases. I would appreciate any information or advice that you have. I have done research on the Internet and it is scary. I then talk with the medical professionals who scare me about the diseases.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2004 Report Share Posted January 18, 2004 Dear Alyssa, Wow! You have really been through the mill with this, haven't you? I am travelling so I've missed any outcome from your meeting, but I'd like to share a little bit of information with you which will hopefully be of some help. First of all, I can tell you that from my experience in speaking with hundreds of parents whose children reacted in the same way as your son did, this is a vaccine reaction - nothing else caused your child''s problems and hospitalisations - it was just vaccination. Which shot he reacted to? Who knows! All vaccines contain a whole host of ingredients which can cause serious reactions in even the healthiest adult - what chance does an allergic child have? There is no way to tell which vaccine caused the reaction and therefore, if it were me, I would stop vaccinating altogether. Is it really worth the risk? You are fearful that your son may contact an illness if he is unvaccinated, but are you aware that no vaccine actually provides immunity and that everyone who is vaccinated will, at some point in the future, again be susceptible to infection. In my opinion, any doctor who would administer further vaccinations to a child with your son's history is either crazy or negligent - perhaps both. Now, I can't give you medical advice - but I can say that if this were my child, aside from immediately stopping all vaccines and drugs of any kind, I would be trying my very best to boost his immune system in any way I could. I would probably be seeing a nutritionist (for yourself if you are breastfeeding, for your son if you're not) as well as a naturopath and a homoeopath to find out exactly what he needed in the way of supplements and remedies. I hope that he is feeling better now - unfortunately, you've come up against what so many of us have faced - the total refusal of the medical community to actually link reactiosn with vaccines. But you are this child's mother and you know best. No doctor will ever be able to tell you more about your child than you already know. Take care and please let us know how everything is going. Kind regards, Meryl Anyone with similar reactions to vaccinations? I just joined the group today and already I have found it very helpful.

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2004 Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 Hi Alyssa~ I'm new to all of this, too. We believe that our 5 year old had a bad reaction to the MMR he received @ 13 months, and we are still trying to correct the damage. Now we are trying to decide if we're going to vaccinate our 2 month old. Anyhoo, my question is: What if it's NOT the specific antibody that Carson is allergic to? What if Carson's actually allergic to one of the preservatives or other ingredients that the shot contained? If that's the case, ANY shot that contains this questionable " extra " ingredient would make Carson sick, and you'de have more to worry about than just the DPT. Good Luck~ ~ > Dear Alyssa, > > Wow!

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2004 Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 SCROLL DOWN...... <What if it's NOT the specific antibody that Carson is allergic to? What if Carson's actually allergic to one of the preservatives or other ingredients that the shot contained? If that's the case, ANY shot that contains this questionable " extra " ingredient would make Carson sick, and you'de have more to worry about than just the DPT.> ----------------- CLICK ON THE CDC list of ingredients below....they are listed with the vaccines they are included in. 's right....most of the adverse reactions to vaccines have to do with the presevatives and adjuvants in the vaccines. If you're not aware yet, the definition/reason for adjuvant=to make the body react in any form: vomit, seizures, altered breathing...etc The bacterium and viruses injected often just lay dormant in the body while the presevatives and adjuvants do most of the immediate damage. The risks and or damage form the negative bacterium and viruses in the vaccines (in most cases) take longer to cause the body'sreaction (ie avian luekemia, meningitis, polio, pertussis-whooping cough...etc) Kimberley ChristianityandVaccinations/ --------signature------------- Are you aware that aborted fetal tissue is used in the development and manufacture of vaccines? Read more about this and other startling facts about vaccines at http://www.cogforlife.org and http://www.vaccinetruth.org Here's a list of vaccine ingredients (chick embryo, formaldehyde, aluminum hydroxide, mercury, aborted fetus tissue, gelatin-boiled pig skin, monkey kidney tissue, boiled cow skin, coagulated horse blood...etc) from Centers for Disease Control http://www.cdc.gov/nip/publications/pink/Appendices/A/Excipient.pdf Ask the US government what your pediatrician can't answer nipinfo@...

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2004 Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 Hi , My son had a reaction at 13 months after the MMR. He lost the ability to speak/babble for 14 months (eventually diagnosed with speech disorder) and he had occasional episodes (seizures?) of his eyes rolling back for a few seconds. These resolved when he started babbling again at the age of 27 months. Did your son have this type of reaction? We feel that our son (now 4 1/2) has been recovering from damage as well. I wish more was known about what actually happens in the brain of these kids who have vaccine reactions/neurological damage both after the shot and during recovery. I have so many unanswered questions. And I do not know who can even answer these questions! I have communicated with several pediatric neurologists but my impression was that they did not " believe " in vaccine injuries.
