Guest guest Posted July 10, 2001 Report Share Posted July 10, 2001 I checked briefly a couple of years ago into the tetanus and the reason for it. First have you checked his titers. If he had his DTP's he probably is okay. Next if I remember correctly (ha!ha!) you need to mostly be concerned about REALLY RUSTED METAL and in cow poop! and the wound needs to be really deep. I realize that I have probably remembered something wrong! but I guess the point is to read up on the shot- and the reason for giving it. I am very relaxed with being out back and bare foot- more concerned about a bee sting. Sorry I do not have time right now to check out my facts. Today simple food for thought. joan kenjoan@... [ ] Tetanus Shot I just read a post from Lindy about her child regressing with the Tetanus Shot. I want to be prepared if Austin ever needs a tetanus shot -- and being the active little boy that he is -- I have no doubt this will probably happen at some point. Are there any alternatives? Should I mostly be concerned about the shot being thimersol free? Mom to Austin (recovered from pdd) and (nt) 5 yr old twins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 11, 2001 Report Share Posted July 11, 2001 I was told by a pharmacist that if your child has any allergic reaction or a suspected reaction to eggs that they should never get a tetanus shot. He said the results could be severe neuro damage. Just thought I'd share this info. Rawlings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 11, 2001 Report Share Posted July 11, 2001 The thimerasol will be removed from the tetanus shot in the year 2002. It is anticipated to be JAN. It is not available thimerasol free at this time.

Guest guest Posted July 14, 2001 Report Share Posted July 14, 2001 Joni, Which pharmaceutical companies did you speak to? And who did you contact at the CDC? It was my understanding that the next vaccine that the CDC would put pressure on the pharm companies to make Hg free was going to be the Flu Shot. Did any of the pharm companies you called also make DTaP? Did you encourage them to manufacture Diptheria and Acell Pertussis in monovalent doses? SAFE MINDS is working on this campaign right now, please refer to our website at www.safeminds.org.

Guest guest Posted July 17, 2001 Report Share Posted July 17, 2001 I am a member of Voices of Safety. www.voicesofsafety.com. I did speak to the CDC and called all the Drug companies: Lederle, Connaught, Merk, -Kline Beecham, Medeva, and wyeth-Ayerst. The Thimerasol will also be removed from the Flu vaccination in Jan of 2002 along with the DTaP,DT,etc. People should know that Pertussis vaccination is contra-indicated in neurological disorders so only the DT shot should be given anyway. They should consult their Neurologist if their pediatrician is not aware of this and have their pediatricians educated.. People should also know that just because they will be making it thimerasol free they will still be using up their shelf of thimerasol containing vaccination. Know also that wywth-ayerst uses formaldehyde in their flu vaccination. When I spoke to the CDC and Drug Manufacturers the plan was that another perservative was going to be used but they had not decided on the particular preservative. No confirmation on totally perservative free upon special request was able to be confirmed to me. I think you too will be happy with what our organization is doing. Would be nice if we can join forces. This is an International organization and Don works right up to the World health organization. We are now forming a legislative task force...Sincerely Joni M.

Guest guest Posted August 30, 2001 Report Share Posted August 30, 2001 Hi , If your son had an adverse reaction to the DPT I wouldn't give ANY more vaccines of any nature. You don't really know if it was the pertussis portion of the vaccine that your son reacted to. Also, if he's allergic to eggs of any sort tetanus vaccine can be lethal! My son also was given the DPT and had an adverse response...the next shot was a DTAP, he then went into convulsion and became autistic.Don't play russian roulette with your son's life! -R. ---- Original Message ----- From: <nicksmater@...> <autism treatment > Sent: Wednesday, August 29, 2001 8:44 PM Subject: [ ] Tetanus shot > Hi listmates, > I have a question.

Guest guest Posted August 30, 2001 Report Share Posted August 30, 2001 I think you can test your son's vaccine titer. I did my boy's titer test. His rubella titer is 111 which normal immunized range is 5-10. And his diphetheral titer is 1.76 which reference should be less 0.1. These two high data matches the shots I got three month before my pregancey( 2 MMR and 3 DT). If your child react to DTP that much, that means he probably had these antibody higher even before you gave him the shot. And my son's titer test also showed he dosen't be immunized of polio. I think that is wrong. He got four polio shots, how he is not immued. I read a paper which said when kids get polio, DTP or several shots together, the vaccine will work together, tetanus or diphetheral may even deactive polio. I should dig this paper out. Just be careful before you dump anything to the little body.

Guest guest Posted August 30, 2001 Report Share Posted August 30, 2001 I think the tetanus by itself still contains thimerosal (contains mercury) so I also believe get the titers. Further, if he is hurt in anyway then consider the vac but otherwise, he should be okay I would think. If he had to go to the emergency room for stitches or injury, etc they would give it to him. But otherwise, I would avoid it at all costs. [ ] Tetanus shot > Hi listmates, > I have a question. My son is seven and autistic. I do believe that it was vaccine-induced.

Guest guest Posted September 4, 2001 Report Share Posted September 4, 2001 There is a new vaccine DPaT, I think it is called. My friends child had to get it because he stepped on a nail.

Guest guest Posted July 27, 2002 Report Share Posted July 27, 2002 Hi, I have twins with autism, age 7. Yesterday my husband, who is totally not living in the same world as I do, had to take one of the boys (Isaac) to the ER for a gash in his leg. Without educating my husband they just automatically gave my son a tetanus shot. We have been religious exempted from vaccines for the past 5 years. I was FURIOUS. Now I am freaking out. I have worked so hard to keep the boys healthy, and their immune systems were doing so much better, and now this. I need some support and advice. I'm not thinking straight at all. I'm a mess.

Guest guest Posted July 27, 2002 Report Share Posted July 27, 2002 Karla, not been reading all of the list due to time pressures and therefore do not know if you are chelating?? If you are on what protocol. the main thing is that DMSA will pull the mercury from the bloodstream. The half life of mercury in the blood is around 45 days so do not panic. You do want to get rid of it, so if you are on DMSA continue. If you are on ALA, as well stop the ALA. The ALA should not be used in the event of recent exposure. If you are not yet chelating and want more advice please say. Hey thank god he has an enlighteded parent lilke you who can sort it out. He is lucky!

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2002 Report Share Posted July 28, 2002 Lindy, Thanks. I " m so scared. I do have him on some antioxidants and vitamins, so am hoping that is going to help. I would also like to know if it is true that tetanus is only found in feces? All the websites I read say it is in dirt. Which is true? I'm sure that most of our dirt today has been in contact wit feces of some kind, but isn't it true that tetanus can't live in the air? And that if a wound bleeds really well, it's not likely to have tetanus in it? I am also trying to remember the name of another vaccine list I was on about a year ago, but they have moved and I can't find it now. If you know of another list that might help me, I'd sure appreciate it. I need to know what to do. Thanks a bunch!

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2002 Report Share Posted July 28, 2002 Karla, This list is for parents with metal poisoned, primarily mercury poisoned, children. We are engaged in a treatment programme to remove the metals a process which is called chelation. This word is from the Greek khele meaning 'claw' and involves giving a chemical substance which has a high affinity with the metal or mercury for example. This binds (claws) the mercury in a pincer grip and together they are excreted from the body. The process is complicated and I suggest you start your quest for information by reading the files section of this site, particulary the Q & A section as a starter.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2002 Report Share Posted July 28, 2002 ---I hope you are chelating...My son received a tetanus shot at age 3 after making progress and regaining speech from his 22 month diagnosis...He spent the next several months wandering around making repetitive howling sounds. He has not spoken since. He is 11. I would dump as many anti-oxidants as reasonably sensible into him, and watch him like a hawk for any adverse reactions. I figured my son had received something like 7-8 tetanus shots by the time he was 3 1/2...(tetanus shots are supposed to be good for 7 years???)...I would guess that your son's immune system is in much better shape, this was before I started him on any supplements, whatsoever, also if he has had no vaccines in 5 years, I would think he would handle it better.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2002 Report Share Posted July 28, 2002 Karla, What a nightmare for you. I am wondering if all tetanus shots contain thimerisol. That is, are tetanus shots are still manufactured with thimerisol or are they now supposed to be free of this as are other children's vaccines? I'm sure others on this list know. Either way, loading up on antioxidents sounds like a very good idea. I hope everything's turns out alright.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2002 Report Share Posted July 28, 2002 Is there an alternative to a tetanus shot? It seems like that would be a terrible decision for a parent to make if the child stepped on a rusty nail or was otherwise at risk without tetanus. It seems like this would be a double whammy for kids who already have compromised immune systems. Any thoughts on this? Lynne >> What a nightmare for you.

Guest guest Posted July 29, 2002 Report Share Posted July 29, 2002 Homeopathy offers alternatives for vaccines. I have family members who have opted for that, rather than vaccines. Although, if I remember correctly, one homeopath gave his children ONLY the tetanus vaccine, no others. There are also a lot of veterinarians who are now using homeopathy on animals. When they get vaccines, they use certain remedies shortly afterward to neutralize negative effects. Judy - In @y..., Lynne Arnold <lsarnold@e...> wrote: > Is there an alternative to a tetanus shot?

Guest guest Posted July 4, 2005 Report Share Posted July 4, 2005 Hi, I am a little behind here but have a question about this one. I also have a sinus infection which has lingered for months now. I did a course of anti-biotic's in like March which I thought got rid of it but after a couple of weeks I realized it was still there. I have the most disgusting smell in my nose. I tried to ignore it as I do alot, but it has continued to get worse. About a week ago I started back on my new batch of ST. which reduced the symptoms, now I read in Don's reply to eliminate vinegar. Can someone explain? I did miss a couple days of ST due to the holiday and can really feel/smell it again.

Maybe you sinus infection was not bacterial, as the Augmentin did not work. It really sounds as though your body is trying to rid itself of toxins and metabolic wastes. My suggestion would be to do another juice cleanse or a fast for a week. I would also suggest that you consider going strictly raw, eliminate all salt and vinegar from your diet and reduce any fats (nuts, seeds, oils, avocados) to a bare minimum. Eat much more sweet fruits and lots and lots of tender leafy greens. It is very possible that your body is going through an extended healing crisis that will only continue until you take the necessary steps to help your body heal itself. You also might consider (if you use them) eliminating any cosmetics and facial creams (they are all chemicals and very harsh on the body). Get rid of the shampoos and conditioners too. Instead wash your hair with lemon, the whole lemon blended up with a small amount of distilled water and then filtererd through a cotton cloth or bag.. Works very nicely and leaves the hair wonderful. The oils from the rind condition the hair very well. If you know anyone who is experienced in helping others through a fast have them assist you either by phone or in person. Do an extended water fast and allow your body to heal itself the way it was intended to heal itself; naturally. Drink lots of distilled water. One other thing, next time you step on a nail, soak your foot in a large pot or tub of very, very hot water with about 10 - 15 black tea bags added. Allow your foot to soak until the water is no longer hot. Works like a charm everytime and no need for a toxin shot. -- Peace be with you, .

Since you made the choice to do so and since it did nothing for your sinus infection tells me that your sinus infection was either a) not bacterial caused or not an infection at all but your body's attempt to cleanse itself. Vinegar is toxic to the body. However, most of us have quite toxic bodies anyway from our choice of diet and lifestyle. Taking the super tonic may be much better for you health wise than not taking it. At least until you reach a point in your evolution where you are eating raw living foods and fasting to cleanse and heal your body instead of relying on outside sources that will do little to nothing for you other than to keep you amused while your body continues its fight trying to eliminate the toxins you put into it and attempting to heal itself at the same time. -- Peace be with you, Kathy.
