Re: intro ( in the U.K.)

I have been researching vaccines for about a year now.....one thing I

do know is that where you are suffering from ME/CFS - this could very

well place your baby into the " high risk " group for Autism if

vaccinated (another poster on another board alerted me to this

alarming fact that every case of Autism she has encountered the

mother was suffering from a chronic disease or autoimmune disorder).

I definitely think that you are making the right decision by not

vaxing so far. If it were me, I wouldn't at all - ever.

Welcome to the group. You will learn a lot.
