Again, I suggest that the vaccines CAUSED the mitochondrial

dysfunction to begin with!

Mitochondrial Disease, Vaccines, Autism and ME/CFS

One Click Group Director Jane writes:

Validated tests show that my son, your young One Click Group Technical

Director, suffers so severely from Mitochondrial Dysfunction that it is a

miracle any time that he is able to walk. My son received adverse

reactions from the 'flu vaccine administered as a baby and from the

Meningitis C vaccine administered a few years later. Shortly thereafter,

he contracted the Viral Encephalitis from which he has never recovered.

This is the child labelled with ME/CFS since the age of ten whom the

National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) insists

undertakes Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to correct his faulty

illness beliefs and Graded Exercise Therapy (GET) to force him to

function. My son has been swept under the medical carpet in Britain and

left to rot, mostly staring at the four walls of his home for the last

seven years.

It is for these reasons, amongst so many others, that my son is taking

NICE to the High Court in Britain for Judicial Review of the appalling

CFS/ME NICE Guidelines on your behalf. So many patients in Britain

labelled with ME/CFS many of whom have also tested positive for Lyme

Borreliosis, have equally received devastating Mitochondrial Dysfunction

test results.

Mitochondrial Dysfunction is strongly involved in the case of Hannah

Poling, the child who has made vaccine autism history. See Associated

Press,

Parents Speak Out on Vaccine Settlement.

The truth will out for Hannah, my child and for so many other people,

both children and adults, in a position similar to theirs.

United Mitochondrial Disease

Foundation Statement on Vaccines, Autism and Mitochondrial

Disease

PITTSBURGH, March 6 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Statement from

Chuck Mohan, executive director and CEO of the United Mitochondrial

Disease Foundation on reports of possible links between childhood

vaccinations and mitochondrial diseases:

" There are no scientific studies documenting that childhood

vaccinations cause or worsen mitochondrial diseases, but there is very

little scientific research in this area. Mitochondrial diseases are as

prevalent as childhood leukemia, however the National Institutes of

Health devotes only $11 million a year to research into mitochondrial

disorders and only about one-third of that is earmarked for primary

mitochondrial disease research. Many scientists believe unmasking the

causes of mitochondrial disease may lead to possible cures for

Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, heart disease and cancer. "

Chuck Mohan is available for interviews.

MITOCHONDRIAL DISORDERS

Energy for our bodies is created within our cells. This massive job

is handled by the mitochondria. When these tiny guys can't do their job,

our whole body suffers.

Normal mitochondrion

1. Mitochondria are tiny power plants inside human cells that convert

food into energy.

2. If the mitochondria are not working properly, the cell does not get

the energy it needs to do its work within the body.

Organ systems:

3. The brain, heart and lungs require the most energy to function

properly. If they don't have adequate energy, these organs begin to fail.

Symptoms vary depending on the part of the body involved.

Possible symptoms

Mitochondrial disorders are rare. Not everyone who has these symptoms

has dysfunctional mitochondria.

Brain: Developmental delays, seizures, autistic features,

migraines, atypical cerebral palsy

Eyes and ears: Visual or hearing loss, degeneration of retina

cells

Heart: Heart blocks, Cardiomyopathy

Muscles: Weakness, cramping, gastrointestinal problems, muscle

pain

Liver: Low blood sugar, liver failure

Kidneys: Failure to excrete acid or wasting

Pancreas and other glands: Diabetes and inability to make

digestive enzymes, low calcium

Nerves: Weakness (may be intermittent), fainting, Chronic nerve

pain

Systemic: Failure to gain weight, fatigue, unexplained vomiting,

short stature, respiratory problems

Mitochondrian disorders generally involve three or more organ systems and

in some cases produces symptoms similar to autism.
