Vaccine: DTAP, HIBV, MMR, OPV, VARCEL, DTAP, HIBV, MMR, OPV, VARCEL
Symptoms: Sinusitis, Tic, Upper respiratory tract infection
Clinical narrative: Initially very ill with high fever up to 103.4F (orally), chills with increased sinusitis and chest congestion. Seemed to recover in 5-6 days. Shortly thereafter, he started demonstrating "ticks" with hands, eye, mouth, arms and legs. He also lost ability to read sight words that he had done previously. He became hyper, had short attention and was unable to learn to read. Child was 4 years old when vaccines were given. On 8/17/01, report filed 3 1/2 years after child was given multiple vaccines of the routine childhood schedule at age of 4. Pt had fever and possible URI symptoms following that evening. After an unknown period, the pt developed neurologic symptoms and lost developmental milestones. No medical evaluation of the child since that time was provided with report, therefore I do not have a dx of the current status. The family reports autism. While vaccines have been suggested as a cause, studies have revealed the majority of cases of autism are not likely due to vaccines. The cause of the autism is currently unknown. 60 day follow up on 11/04/2003: "Vaccine recipient recovered from the adverse events."
