Common Questions and Answers about Narcolepsy h1n1 vaccine

narcolepsy

535822 tn?1443976780 s Health Protection Agency (HPA) has declared that seasonal flu vaccine is not linked to narcolepsy, the agency is concerned that Pandemrix is of a different breed, and that it is not necessarily safe for children (http://www.guardian.co.uk). Back in 2099, it was confirmed that narcolepsy is actually an autoimmune disorder characterized by missing brain cells that are responsible for producing hypocretin, a hormone that promotes wakefulness.
Avatar f tn It can be caused by viruses or certain vaccines (for example, H1N1 vaccine was notorious for causing a swath of narcolepsy cases in children). I believe I am genetically predisposed and contracted narcolepsy after either my MMR or my T/D vaccine when I was a young teenager.
881165 tn?1265984588 My son developed dysautonomia, a rare and potentially fatal disease, 4 hours after H1N1 nasal vaccine and all the doctors kept blaming his problems on attention-seeking. MRI of the brain showed my son has a pituitary adenoma (tumor), rare in children; there's no family history of this rare childhood tumor.

Avatar f tn Flu shots and viruses have been known to cause what looks like Bells Palsy, but is actually a manifestation of cataplexy (random muscle weakness or paralysis which can be widespread or isolated) which happens in narcolepsy, which flu shots and viruses have been known to cause. Most recently, the H1N1 vaccine caused a swath of narcolepsy cases. 75% of people with narcolepsy never, ever get diagnosed in their lifetime.
Avatar f tn The only way it was portrayed to me was as a fantastic vaccine that was really needed while pregnant. It should be the duty and the obligation of anyone who administers this to explain in full the possible risks etc.. This is absolutely disgusting and disgraceful! I am now under an enormous amount of stress and taking steroids.
688450 tn?1259468734 the H1N1 vaccine is exempted from the traditional federal legislation that says the tgovernment pays for injuries caused by vaccines.

168348 tn?1379357075 Is the 2009 H1N1 influenza vaccine safe for pregnant women? A: Influenza vaccines have not been shown to cause harm to a pregnant woman or her baby. The seasonal flu shot (injection) is proven as safe and already recommended for pregnant women. The 2009 H1N1 influenza vaccine will be made using the same processes and facilities that are used to make seasonal influenza vaccines.
Avatar f tn Got mine today + my pneumonia shot.
Avatar m tn I just recently had the H1N1 vaccine and the following day my right jaw was swollen. Obvisiously this was a big concern for me considering I just had the H1N1 vaccine the night before. I went to my doctor and he told me its a possibility that I have a stone in salivary gland and recommended that I suck on a lemon and he perscribed me some penicillin and if it gets worse I should see him.

875512 tn?1245524526 The H1N1 vaccine is not available yet, and I don't think it's even FDA approved yet. I got the flu shot when I was p/g with DS and I will probably get one this pregnancy also. I am iffy about the H1N1 vaccine. I posted a poll on here not to long ago about it and I'm sure you could do a search for it. But for me, I think it's too new of a vaccine especially for p/g woman to recieve it. I don't know though. I'm going to talk to my OB about it at my next appt.
147426 tn?1317265632 Every year the vaccine manufacturers have just a few months to come up with the vaccine for the prediction that year. H1N1 popped up out of nowhere in the early summer. Yes, the testing of this vaccine was rushed, but the process to make it is tried and true. The swine flu is pretty new to the human species. Apparently it appeared a decade or so ago. So few of us have any resistance to it. Because of this more people will catch it and those that do may have a more severe disease.
Avatar f tn he told me seriously that he has seen the pg women who ended up in the ICU and it scares him that he would rather I take the vaccine with the reported side effects than risk getting H1N1. To those who had it, when did you get your vaccine and did you have any side effects?
478429 tn?1265244387 Also, just as a side note about the H1N1 vaccine that I read about in an Associated Press article yesterday--if you receive the H1N1 vaccine, you will need to get a booster four weeks later. So that is two vaccinations in the period of a month of a vaccine that normally (seasonal flu) only takes one shot.

151928 tn?1275707337 It is important for a pregnant woman to receive the 2009 H1N1 influenza vaccine as well as a seasonal influenza vaccine. A pregnant woman who gets any type of flu is at risk for serious complications and hospitalization. Pregnant women who are otherwise healthy have been severely impacted by the 2009 H1N1 influenza virus (formerly called “novel H1N1 flu” or “swine flu”).
Avatar f tn BCG vaccine, typhoid vaccine [Wikipedia contributors. "Attenuated vaccine." Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia. Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia, 29 Mar. 2011. Web. 27 Apr. 2011.] These can rarely cause disease, but they are designed to activate the immune system. The common wisdom seems to be that you should consult your neurologist before taking any live/attenuated vaccine.
Avatar n tn Thank you very much guys..I was asking as I had a hep B vaccine and H1N1 influenza vaccine before my exposure..was just afraid those two vaccines might affect my test result...hopefully teak would see this too!
Avatar f tn Hi , I have taken H1N1 nasal spray vaccine 2 months ago and plan to do HIV test in the next 3 weeks. Is there a possibility that the H1N1 vaccine may result in a false positive HIV elisa blood test?
Avatar f tn I have read a lot of negatives about the H1N1 vaccine, even some really wild conspiracy theories about the government trying to keep population down by putting poison in the vaccine. What do you all feel about it?
Avatar n tn I think this explains my BFS, but, because I have asthma, I want to get the H1N1 vaccine. I also received the flu shot the past 2 years without any problem. I don't necessarily think the seasonal flu shot caused the BFS, but want to know if it should in any way enter into my decision to get the H1N1 vaccine. I am more scared of getting sick and I believe the shot is less dangerous. Thank you for reading this post.
Avatar f tn If you go on Youtube and type in dangers of H1N1 vaccine you will have first hand info on the truth about the vaccine. Myself, I refuse to give it to my family! I try to stay away from large crowds and places where a lot of kids congregate and carry a lot of sanitizer. Supplement with vitamin D, C and Probiotics! That's how I'm preventing the flu.
