Guest guest Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 I have dreaded this day, but it has come. Some of you that know me, know I have two infant twin nephews. Born at 31 weeks, Spent two months in NICU. They are now four months old, but chronologically they are 2 months. They were given standard run of vaccines at 2 months, which was chronologically birth (9pounds). On Monday to my dreaded horror, they received the standard run of vaccines given to four month olds despite their really not being four months old. They have been sick for the past three days. Fever of 102, Vomiting, diarrhea, and fussy/crying. Not eating much. I am livid....and sad. I am going to bombard them with more information, now grandma is on the war path with me in doing that, so perhaps they will take heed here and do some reading! But... What can be done for adverse reactions to minimize the damage? The dumb doc told them tylenol every four hours. They have stopped this because I told them what it does, how it slows the liver and causes worse damage. So they did listen about that. I am thinking vitamin C for antiviral properties and immune system help, and Cod liver oil to protect the brain. Anything else?? Grr...stupid doctors. They were hesitant to vax them so young, but the damn doctor scared them by telling them that preemies can die from some of these diseases. He failed to tell them that preemies die from vaccines! Appreciate any suggestions of help/links on damage control Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
