Guest guest Posted June 23, 2000 Report Share Posted June 23, 2000 OK all of you walking textbooks , I need some info on Asthma in relation to vaccines in infants. I have a friend who has NEVER listened to me on the whole vax issue, she turns a deaf ear, and tells me she DOES NOT want to hear it...now, when something happens, she does.. Her sil has a baby boy. He is 4.5 months old. He was vaxed at birth with the hep b, at 2 months with the dpt/hib/ipv/hep b #2 within a week of that appt. he developed severe diarrhea, to the point of hospitalization for dehydration. They told her it was the formula The formula switch didn't help, but he got better eventually. He is now on a different formula. After that he developed an ear inf/URI that lasted 2 weeks. He was doing better, except I had noticed at a get together that he constantly twitches, stares weirdly, sways his head from side to side like Stevie Wonder. He can't look at you in the eye...very strange. Have any of you seen this???? He was 3 months when I noticed this. He was also what the mom said..colic..very irritable. When I mentioned my concern to my friend the next day she got really annoyed at me, and told me there was NOTHING wrong with him. I told her to please not take offense, but as a nurse, it just didn't add up....something was wrong....... neurological in the least. That leads us to today. He had his 4 month shots..dpt/hib/ipv he had them 4 days ago. My friend called me this evening. The baby was rushed to the ER with a severe breathing problem! They pumped him full of steroids, epi, nebulizer treatments and they admitted him. They said he has asthma. This is SO sad to me. I know it is NOT coincidence! Can someone give me some links/articles etc on the link between vax and asthma in infants?? All I can find pertains to older people not babies. My friend is starting to belive I am NOT crazy This is the same friend who says that she trusts God to protect her kids and it is Gods will with the vax issue!! It is SO sad to me, but at least I try. I asked her if Dr. gave your child a glass of Cyanide to drink, would you let her? She said if God told me to I would. She won't even read one article, look at my PDR, she said her older 2 kids are OK so she will vax her next kids..she just had a baby too. Meanwhile the older one is always sick, she has a cholesterol of 296..she is 8 years old!!! The younger (4) has asthma, and terrible allergies, and has had so many yeast infections, I have lost track. The mom " forgets " to get the Lotromin and then yells at the poor baby for scratching her behind I told her the alternative treatments, and she won't hear of it. It burns me to the point that I don't even want to spend time with her! I feel like it is neglect on her part to not even want to know!......OK sorry I have needed to get that out! I am just so FED UP with neglectful, stupid parents!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Attached mama~ and nursling nna 9/20/96 email~ attachedmama@... homepage~ http://hometown.aol.com/jmslpn/myhomepage/profile.html Attachment parenting forum~ http://www.delphi.com/n/main.asp?webtag=attachedma ma " Our Loving Home is a NO SPANK ZONE!!
