Sex: M
Vaccine: SMALL
Symptoms: Hyperaesthesia, Hypoaesthesia, Influenza like illness, Injection site reaction, Nausea
Clinical narrative: This healthy 22 year old reported receiving his primary Smallpox vaccination on 18 Feb 2006.  He reported experiencing typical flu like body aches and pains with a frontal headache (3/10 pain scale) the first week that resolved with use of Tylenol and rest. He stated his smallpox vaccine site had a "typical" reaction he was told to expect with the scab falling off about day 21-28. However after resolution of his "flu-like" symptoms he never "felt right".  He is unable to describe other than he just felt different.     On 10 April 2006 he reported to the reserve center where he noted he was unable to urinate.  He was sent to the hospital where he was catherized and admitted for evaluation. He also noted increased sensitivity to his right side (arm, abdomen, back) and to both legs with associated numbness and tingling.  He reported over the next few days he was nauseated, has 1-2 episodes of vomiting preferring not to eat due to feeling ill, and was "unable to walk as his balance and gait were off". To walk he required the use a cane and used the wall for support. He denied any pain, paralysis, shortness of breath, bowel incontinence/constipation, weakness to upper extremities or change in behavior/mentality. He was diagnosed with ADEM and treated with IV antibiotics, steroids and IVIG with resolution of these symptoms within a few days (bladder and gait problems).  He was placed in physical therapy for muscle retraining and strengthing and complaints of lower back pain 1-4/10.  On 11 April 2006 doctor consulted and referred this service member to the Vaccine Healthcare Center.     He contacted Vaccine Healthcare Center on 4 May 2006 upon returning home. He reported he was "almost normal" as he continues to have numbness and tingling with hypersensitivity to the skin along his right side (forearm and abdomen). He has no difficulty urinating and has full use of all extremities. He can walk without difficulty. He denied any shortness of breath, abdominal pain, incontinence/constipation/retention, or erectile dysfunction.  He does admit with questioning to some "fogginess" in his brain when answering questions. He described this as a delay in answering questions he wasn't aware of prior to his diagnosis of ADEM.

Clinical narrative: Received vaccines at 2:30 pm on 4/20/06.  There were no initial side effects.  On 4/27/06 at about 8:30 am she had a seizure.  I was not aware of any fever at that time.  The seizure lasted approximately 40 seconds.  Her eyes rolled back and to the left and her body went limp and fell to the left.  Her father caught her as she fell and she did not hit her head.  Her mouth was moving but she did not appear to be breathing.  Her lips began to turn purple.  There was no violent shaking.  She came out of it but was not able to sit unsupported or control her movements.  Her eyes were out of focus.  Her tongue was sticking out and moving from side to side.  She was gnawing on her tongue.  She was reaching toward the ceiling and moving her hands as if trying to grab something.  This lasted about 2 minutes.  Then she went to sleep.  She was barely responsive to stimulation. We took her to the Emergency Room.  I believe we arrived around 8:50 am.  She slept soundly until the nurses drew blood and checked her temperature.  She was alert and very upset, but there was no fever.  After the blood work, she went for a CT Scan.  She was very upset during the procedure.  After the scan she went back to sleep.  She did not wake up again at the hospital.  We were discharged at approximately 11:00 am.  We went home.  She did not wake during the drive or when when I put her in her crib.  She slept for the rest of the day only waking for short time periods.  For the next several days she was normal except that she was tired and slept more than usual and ate/drank very little.  She appears to be back to normal today, eight days after the seizure.

Clinical narrative: Received vaccines at 2:30 pm on 4/20/06.  There were no initial side effects.  On 4/27/06 at about 8:30 am she had a seizure.  I was not aware of any fever at that time.  The seizure lasted approximately 40 seconds.  Her eyes rolled back and to the left and her body went limp and fell to the left.  Her father caught her as she fell and she did not hit her head.  Her mouth was moving but she did not appear to be breathing.  Her lips began to turn purple.  There was no violent shaking.  She came out of it but was not able to sit unsupported or control her movements.  Her eyes were out of focus.  Her tongue was sticking out and moving from side to side.  She was gnawing on her tongue.  She was reaching toward the ceiling and moving her hands as if trying to grab something.  This lasted about 2 minutes.  Then she went to sleep.  She was barely responsive to stimulation. We took her to the Emergency Room.  I believe we arrived around 8:50 am.  She slept soundly until the nurses drew blood and checked her temperature.  She was alert and very upset, but there was no fever.  After the blood work, she went for a CT Scan.  She was very upset during the procedure.  After the scan she went back to sleep.  She did not wake up again at the hospital.  We were discharged at approximately 11:00 am.  We went home.  She did not wake during the drive or when when I put her in her crib.  She slept for the rest of the day only waking for short time periods.  For the next several days she was normal except that she was tired and slept more than usual and ate/drank very little.  She appears to be back to normal today, eight days after the seizure.
