Two days post-vaccination, the patient developed a fever of 105 degrees Fahrenheit and pain high on the left side of the neck with redness that spread to the shoulder. There was no reaction at the injection site. She was examined in an emergency room and subsequently admitted to the hospital with the admitting diagnosis of "sepsis from inoculation." WBC was 35,000. Unspecified CT scan and chest x-ray were negative. Neck x-ray showed old post-surgical changes with a reactive lymph node on the left side. The patient was treated with five days of "antibiotics" and improved. She was discharged to home. The day following discharge, she was examined by a physician and was continuing to complain of left sided neck pain, generalized weakness, and tenderness and numbness of the sternum. She was treated with Keflex and was scheduled for a bone scan to rule out osteomyelitis. At the time of this report, the patient had not recovered.

Clinical narrative: Started at 18 months it is lifelong Autism; no eye contact; severe speech delay; tantrum to melt downs; anti-social; treatment is very expensive; only treatment approved; speech and occupational therapy (Insure will not cover it); My son seemed normal at birth. He had nothing wrong, no problems and all he had was baby shots between the time he was born and the time he was diagnosed. Autism is not an  instant reaction you can see. The adverse events are loss of eye contact, speech delay, tantrums and social problems well guess what doctors say He is a boy, he is a only child, he is spoiled, boys are slower than girls. They say this is why he is not talking, They say it is normal for children to tantrum and fall on the floor kicking and screaming. The social part does not start this early. So how are you supposed to know to report this? Please help us. All autism parents. this is not something that just has genetically started happening. 1 in 150 births. My son was 3 years old before he was actually diagnosed. Why won't someone be the bigger person and say this is what is causing it. I believe deep down someone knows. Why should precious children pay the price. Autism is very expensive. Children are labeled disabled with autism but there is no financial help as long as the parents make a income. The income is not enough - Please he me and my son. (mother)  02/28/2008 Vax record received.

Vaccine: FLU3
Symptoms: Cough, Headache, Influenza like illness, Pain, Pyrexia
Clinical narrative: I am submitting this VAERS report in the possibility that others may benefit from the information I am providing. As one of the Influenza Vaccine Nurses, I administered several hundred influenza vaccines to both children and adults between the dates of 29 Oct through 14 December, 2007. Shortly following the administration of the vaccines I became sick with flu like symptoms. I initially tried to self treat myself with Tylenol and over the counter cold/flu medications, as I felt sure what I had was viral. My initial symptoms were headache, mild fever, and an achy feeling all over. These symptoms persisted for more than a week and were later followed by a bronchitis type cough and a sinus infection. I saw the physician on December 3, 2007 and was given some antibiotics for an upper respiratory infection. Currently, I still have the cough and sinus symptoms despite having been treated. There were two other nurses at our hospital facility that administered hundreds of influenza vaccines and experienced some of these same type symptoms.

As one of the vaccine nurses at the hospital, I administered several hundred influenza vaccines to both children and adults between the dates of 29 Oct through 14 December, 2007.  Shortly following the administration of the vaccines I became sick with flu like symptoms.  I initially tried to self treat myself with Tylenol and chicken soup, as I felt sure what I had was viral.  My initial symptoms were headache, mild fever, and an achy feeling all over.  These symptoms persisted for more than a week and were later followed by a bronchitis type cough and lung pain on inspiration.  I saw the physician on November 26th and was given some antibiotics for my bronchitis.  However, my lung x-rays appeared normal.  Now 4 months later I continue to feel fatigued with mild reactive airway type symptoms.  In addition, I had a Respiratory Viral Panel done in January that did not show any respiratory, or influenza virus.  However, that test was frozen and mailed out late.  There were two other nurses at our hospital facility that administered hundreds of influenza vaccines and experienced some of these same type symptoms.  Therefore, their VAERS Report and statements are included in this envelope.  Please do not hesitate to call me should you have further questions, or concerns.  The vaccines I administered are as follows: FluMist Manufacturer MedImmune Inc Lot 500488P Exp Dec 25, 07; FluLaval Manufacturer GlaxoSmithKline Lot AFLLA040AA Exp July 08; Flu Zone Manufacturer Sanofi Pasteur Lot U2490AA Exp 30 Jun 08.
