Vaccine: MMR, MMR
Symptoms: Abnormal behaviour, Autism, Dyspepsia, Gastrointestinal disorder, Laboratory test abnormal
Clinical narrative: My son received his MMR II shot at 1 year old and shortly after began showing autistic behavior. He was completely normal before this. Sat up at 4 1/2 months, walked at 9 months and started talking at 10 or 11 months. Post vax, this started to disappear. He is now autistic and I know he would not be without the MMR II vaccination. The presence of mercury, aluminum and formaldyhide are in this vaccine. They are at toxic levels. Please take this off the market and make other kids safe from this happening again. Every symptom for mercury poisoning is a symptom for autism. I am utterly shocked that this relationship has been overlooked for so long. He now has food intolerances, allergies and digestive problems, visual disturbances, sensory problems and the list is endless.  Follow up on 02/26/01 states: "Summary of some symptoms he displays: particular about the feeling of certain clothing, often unaware of being injured, avoids eye contact, rocks while sitting, likes to be tossed in the air, dislikes certain foods and is particular about temperature and/or texture of foods, demonstrates self-stimulating behaviors such as pencil twirling, staring and rocking. Pt does not appear to have deficits in the area of sensory discrimination (awareness of body in space).  Pt demonstrates the following strengths and limitations: Alert and aware of his environment, normal fine motor and gross motor function, able to attend to a task for 5 minutes, difficulty following 2 or more step directions, sensory defensive behaviors that inhibit normal social interaction and functional activity (hair cutting, dressing, eating, play activities), requires moderate to maximum assistance with ADL activities.  Pt's sensory defensiveness behaviors are significant and could cause a functional delay in motor areas if left unchecked. Because of this OT is recommended despite normal function in fine motor skills.  Occupational therapy to address sensory defensiveness through a Wilbarger Protocol and Sensory Diet.  Frequency: 2 times weekly for up to 2 months, 1 time weekly therafter. Intensity: 60 minutes per visit. Parent education for follow through of Wilbarger Protocol and Sensory Diet.  Goals: Target date-6 months after the start of OT.  Pt will tolerate sensory diet as show a decrease in sensory defensive behaviors as illustrated by a comparison of sensorimotor symptoms. Pt will continue normal development in pre-writing and fine motor skills. Pt will be able to follow 2 and 3 directions during activities. Pt will be able to attend to a 15 minute activity with minimal redirection. Pt will be able to assist with ADL tasks with minimal assistance.
