Guest guest Posted February 27, 2003 Report Share Posted February 27, 2003 , You have heard of babies getting the Hep. B w/o parental consent? How could anyone prove it. Like my situation, I can not prove that my son didn't Hep B or that he did? Lynda Re: Re: Introduction Also, make sure you have someone designated to be with the baby at all times. If for some reason they take the baby for a test, bath, whatever...that's often when I've heard of shots being given without permission. L.

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2003 Report Share Posted March 1, 2003 I strongly recommend that you look into the gluten and casein free diet. www.gfcfdiet.com Also, you can get testing done at some labs like Smoky and Great Plains Laboratory that will help direct you on some treatments for intestinal problems. > Well, 4 weeks later my son had a very high fever and a rash.

Guest guest Posted March 4, 2003 Report Share Posted March 4, 2003 Joann, We have the patients sign a contract before surgery stating that they will return at 1 week, 3 month, 6 month and then yearly. These visits include nutritional evaluations. They must bring their intake records with them. They also must attend at least 2 support groups before surgery and once a month after surgery. The pre-gastric visits include: 1. The first group meeting where the entire diet is explained to them. This OFTEN weeds out people who know they could never do what is expected of them. At this meeting I do about a 1+ hour talk with visuals of items they can and can't have, along with some of the protein supplements they can use. ( we don't do sampling at this meeting, but present that at support groups from time to time) 2. That day, I set up an individual appt. with them to meet for about 1+ hours with me and review what their eating behaviors are and what goals to set to work on before surgery. I make a follow up appt with them and usually end up seeing them about 3 times before surgery. If patients have a very high BMI, then we encourage weight loss and I would work with them on that. Hope this helps. Joan Hultgren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 4, 2003 Report Share Posted June 4, 2003 Hi Be prepared to have them try and convince you otherwise. The statements they used on me was " well you don't want you child to die of any diseases " . Good luck. Depending on which state you are in you can have personal or religious exemptions. It's best to get a form stating this and placing it on record so you won't get hassled. No there is no danger in not administering the second dose. Good luck Elena Introduction Hello, My name is Racheal, and I am mother to 10 week old (today!) daughter. I did not do any research on vaccines until recently, and am very upset at myself for not paying attention sooner. I allowed the first dose of the Hep B vaccine to be administered to dd at 2 weeks. In retrospect, that was absurd. There is absolutely no risk to my daughter of Hep B. It is very frustrating. Tomorrow I have the 2 mos well baby exam, and I am not going to vaccinate. Is there a danger to not administering the 2nd dose of Hep B? I am happy that I found this list, and am looking forward to learning a lot about vaccines so that I can make an informed decision. warmly, Racheal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 4, 2003 Report Share Posted June 4, 2003 There is no danger in stopping any series of vaccines. The worst that can happen is an inadequate antibody response so that antibodies do not persist. Of course, there are many dangers involved in continuing the vaccines.
