Guest guest Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 What are your thoughts on getting the flu shot. I know people that told me that they had friends die from it. Ohters that got it were really sick afterwards. I know that it is a big money making thing, because just because you get the shot doesnt mean you will be covered by it for this season -- Jodyscd 5 yearsceliac sprue, pernicious anemia,heavy metal toxicity nummular eczema " Strength does not come from winningYour struggles develop your strength.

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 I would like people's opinion about the menangitis vaccine. They are now pushing 6th graders and up to have it in our school system. I wrote letters stating I was not letting my kids have it at this time. any thoughts? Also, since I'm on here, I thought I would ask if anyone has any advice for withdrawals. , my 15 year old who is on this diet, has been off of lexapro for 3 months. I think we weaned her off too quickly. Anyway, she hasn't been to school this year yet. She has every symptom in the book. and we see no light at the end of the tunnel yet. We went on drugs.com and there is a lexapro withdrawal forum. it's pretty scarey how these meds can really mess up a person. just wondered if anyone has dealt with this and what helped and if there is a lite at end of tunnel and when? marla P.

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 Vaccines will always be controversial, but one good thing about them is that nobody has seen the diseases they prevent. For those of us old enough to have seen someone with polio, or meningitis, it's a whole lot easier to get the vaccine, despite the fact that they are not perfect either. It's a risk- benefit thing, maybe one would rather risk chicken pox or even flu, but meningitis can be deadly. PJ > > > > There is NO way I would get the flu shot.

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 PJ- I don't have a family to look after, but if I get a bad flu, I inevitably get a bad flare. My body just breaks down. I actually get the vaccine every year- so far it seems to be worth the risk for me. I posted my concerns on pecanbread too (knowing that they are well informed about vaccines) and someone told me that there IS a mercury-free vaccine. I am going to look into that!

It's a risk- benefit thing, maybe one would rather risk chicken pox or even flu, but meningitis can be deadly. Vaccines have their uses. Speaking as a historian of developments in medicine, we, today, have no real concept of what the plagues were like. Even in modern times, ie, the 20th century, an estimated 300-500 million people died of smallpox, until vaccination wiped it out. Or consider the 1918 flu pandemic in which 50-100 million died between March 1918 and June 1920. On a more personal level, my husband's grandmother was a yellow fever orphan. What I do think is that in an effort to prevent all outbreaks of all diseases, we have, perhaps, gone over-board. Kids today get jabbed with WAY more vaccinations than kids fifty years ago. I believe I agree with my holistic vet, who says that if you feel you MUST vaccinate, then don't give multiple vaccinations at the same time. (Canine vacs come SEVEN to a shot -- imagine what kinds of things this sets up by handing a puppy's undeveloped immune system seven diseases to fight at one time!) I do know that vaccines are also very profitable, for Big Pharma, for physicians (and vets), and various clinics. I believe that vaccination is a very personal decision, something to be discussed with your personal physician -- there are so many variables, such as IBDers who are on immune suppressants. — Marilyn New Orleans, Louisiana, USA Undiagnosed IBS since 1976, SCD since 2001 Darn Good SCD Cook No Human Children Shadow & Sunny Longhair Dachshund Babette the Foundling Beagle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 Yes, Marilyn, then you recall that Jonas Salk refused to patent the polio vaccine. " How can you patent the sun? " . He wanted it to be affordable to all. A far cry from big pharma. However, much of the cost of vaccines is litigation driven. I do think we go overboard, but vaccines have eradicated some terrible conditions. Yes, it is a personal decision.

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 PJ, Precisely. Salk refused to patent his vaccine for polio -- he didn't research it to make money. He researched to HELP PEOPLE. Which is what too many " researchers " have lost sight of, sadly. I may have been among the last few classes of beginning first-graders to receive a smallpox vaccination. I know, for instance, that in London, even up to 1900, four out of five children did not reach their fifth birthday. I wouldn't wish that loss on any parent. I do think, however, that if we could get our food supply in better order, there would be less probability of the reactions some have reported to vaccinations. — Marilyn New Orleans, Louisiana, USA Undiagnosed IBS since 1976, SCD since 2001 Darn Good SCD Cook No Human Children Shadow & Sunny Longhair Dachshund Babette the Foundling Beagle At 02:59 PM 10/14/2010, you wrote: Yes, Marilyn, then you recall that Jonas Salk refused to patent the polio vaccine.

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 Go to http://www.crazymeds.us/ and click on Lexapro in the sidebar. The highlights for discontinuation are: Cons: The dosage of Lexapro is such that discontinuation can be more difficult than with other SSRIs. Not because Lexapro is more addictive, it's not. Paxil (paroxetine hydrochloride) holds that honor (for true SSRIs that is, Effexor (venlafaxine hydrochloride) is not a true SSRI). It's just that you don't have many dosage options with Lexapro. How to Stop Taking Lexapro: Your doctor should be recommending that you reduce your dosage by 5mg a day every 6-8 days if you need to stop taking it, if not more slowly than that. Based on the 27-32 hour half-life. For more information, please see the page on how to safely stop taking these crazy meds. Because of it's super-selectivity Lexapro is more of a coin-toss when it comes to SSRI discontinuation syndrome. Somewhat fewer people than average are subject to it, but there is a symptom that is especially bad with Lexapro (escitalopram oxalate) - the sensation of electric shocks. Sometimes felt in your body, or sometimes the standard brain shocks & shivers of SSRI discontinuation. At least Forest & Lundbeck included warnings specifically about this in the PI sheet. I don't know who spanked them into that, but I'm glad it happened.

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 We take the Oscillococinum flu remedy here and it's worked extremely well for us. Last time I got the flu shot or mist, I got wicked sick and I frequently got sick after previous flu shots. Every time my husband has gotten the shot, he's gotten sick and brings it home. We now carry hand sanitizer everywhere and are vigilant using it. Francine > > I was told to take the Borion influenzinum 9 before and if you feel sick > take it too.

I told them that was unacceptable for a baby with tubes sticking everywhere because he couldn't survive on his own to be given any vaccine. Be real.
