Guest guest Posted June 25, 2002 Report Share Posted June 25, 2002 I understand your concern , but with me, no vaccines I ever had made my CMT worse. Of course, I did have many of the childhood diseases as a normal kid in the 50's, plus the sugarcube style polio vaccine. For my adult travels, I have had to have many vaccines for some pretty wicked diseases in 3rd world countries and have not had any neurological problems after the vaccine that affected my CMT; in 1972 or thereabouts, a Typhoid vaccine left my arm incredibly stiff, sore, and then I had some tremor problems. My neurologist at the time checked me over and we monitored my arm and all. Everything was OK. I am so sorry your son's and daughter's CMT seems to have been made worse by the vaccines. I encourage you to check this out with your pediatric neurologist. CMT's progression affects us all in different ways, at different times. I still make it a point to keep all my vaccinations up to date and at my yearly physical, my Dr. and I go over the list to see what I need because I want to stay as healthy as I can. ~ Gretchen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
