Possible vaccine reaction, tell me what you think

[Fujiko]

I was wondering if anyone can give me some advice. We follow a selective/delayed schedule for my DD, who is 26 months. On Monday (5/11) she received her first MMR. She received no other immunizations that day (the last one, a DTaP, was done a month earlier). There seemed to be no problems that day. But for the last two days (Tuesday and Wednesday), she has been extremely moody. She's normally a very laid-back kid, always the happy one, only gets upset when she's really tired or really hungry, etc, can entertain herself for about an hour at a time, I can console her easily when she is upset. Now she immediately breaks down into sobs whenever something happens that she doesn't like, even if she's just eaten or is well-rested. And it's like night and day; she'll be fine one moment and bawling with her face in her hands the next over something that would NEVER have upset her last week. She pushes me away when I try to comfort her. And it's been like this CONSTANTLY for the last few days. It's like living with a hormonal teenager (except she doesn't know how to swear at me ). Another thing is that she's been waking at night again, 3-5 times per night the last few nights.

I hope it's NOT the vaccine. It could be several other things. She's getting her eye teeth in (she's a late teether)(ETA: teething has never bothered her before), and we are in the process of moving (but the only thing different about our routine right now is that there are a crap-ton of (mostly empty) boxes laying around; mostly everything is still where it normally is and her room is untouched). We're trying to be comforting and reassuring to her whenever she seems upset, so it's not like we've been "too busy" to pay attention to her or anything.

I don't know what I'm asking for. Reassurance? Ideas? Does this sound like a vaccine reaction? If it is, is this permanent or is there anything I can do to help her out? She seems so miserable. Should I call her doctor?

Well i don't know if there's a way to know if this specifically is a vax reaction- but would I would do is start documenting all of her symptoms.
Make note of time of vax and behavior before and after and things that seem out of the ordinary.

I'm sorry that your daughter has been upset :-( and I hope as well that it has nothing to do with the vax.
Though this would probably be enough for me to not get her vaxed anymore- at the very least not w/ the mmr if it is in fact causing this reaction since reactions tend to worsen w/ more doses.

Hope she slept better tonight!

I usually look for fever and pain where the injection was. I give her paracetamol to help ease the pain.

[Marnica]

No way to know for sure, but it certainly is "coincidental". I wouldn't bother discussing your concerns with the doctor as he/she will dismiss your concerns and tell you it has nothing to do with the vaccine.

Also I strongly reccomend you do not give Tylenol! Tylenol depletes glutathione levels. Gultathione is important to the immune system. Right now her little body is trying to fight those viruses that have been injected into her body and tylenol will interfere with this process.

Please don't give any paracetamol. There is too much information out that it may cause the virus that was injected to go inside and attack to organs. Let your child work it out of her body again.

A foreign subject was injected into her body. The body now must get rid of it again. Even if a vial full of water were injected, a completely benign compound, she would still have to get rid of it. The body will have to get back to nature or as close as it can. imo she is trying to do just that and it is causing her to be upset from time to time.

btw, 6 pathogens injected within one or two months is a lot. It is highly unlikely that in nature a child would get 6 childhood diseases in that short of a time span.

She has a lot going on right now. She probably does feel the effects of the vaccine (MMR is live) and getting a tooth and moving on top of that! Sounds stressful. I'd just do my best to soothe her stress, make sure she's eating and drinking healthy, and help her rest as much as possible.

My daughter had her first 2 sets of infant shots, and reacted badly to them. Before the shots, she was a content, calm baby who only wanted to nurse and be snuggled.

After the shots, she became highly agitated, clawing at us, banging her head into ours, crying for hours, and having seizure episodes. To this day, she can be happy one minute, and tantruming the next. (she's 5 and a half.) During one of her episodes, as I call them, she'll roll around on the floor, press her face into the furniture, and rock back and forth, completely out of her mind. Glazed over eyes and screeching at the top of her lungs sporadically. When she's not having one of her episodes, she's a completely different child, looks us in the eye calmly and is reasonable and happy.

There's no doubt in my mind she has these episodes because of the vaccines. I hope your daughter processes the toxins and reverts back to normal soon.

I, too would not waste my time telling the doctor about this. Doctors' almost never see vaccination damage. Even if a perfectly healthy child dies two days after vaccination, it is SIDS or SBS or "they have no idea" what happened. I, too would let the body try to fight off all these toxins. Vitamin C is always good for this.

Dr. Moulden at www.brainguardmd.com explains exactly what is happening to your child at his website. You can read the first few chapters of his book if you click on bloodflow. I'd suggest buying his 3 dvd series. Watching the white blood cells react to the vaccine toxins is pretty powerful stuff. Look for seizure and stroke activity as well.

Thanks all for your help. It's getting less extreme. Although she did have what I would describe as a night terror last night (but I think she was really awake, so I don't think it was actually a night terror) but didn't wake up after that, and now is only freaking out about bigger, more frustrating things, which I can empathize with.

I am really hesitant to get future MMR's done though.

just to second gitti, do not give tylenol. It very difficult for the liver to process, and her liver is already trying to get rid of a lot of toxins. Google tylenol and autism for more info.
