Symptoms: Condition aggravated, Convulsion, Grand mal convulsion
Clinical narrative: From initial information received on 4/6/04 from a health care professional regarding an adverse event, it was reported that a female patient, age approximately 18 years old, received an IMOVAX RABIES vaccination, lot number W1419-3, route and site of administration unknown, on 2/25/04. The reporter stated that within 24 hours the patient experienced a seizure and would not provide any further information. The physician reporter did not have the patient's file at the time of the report, therefore had limited information. It is unknown whether the patient recovered. Additional information was obtained from the reporting physician regarding the patient's medical history, number of dose and latency. This reporter will have a staff member complete the VAERS after contacting the patient. This information will be forwarded when available. Required intervention was ticked due to the internal system requirement. At this time it is unknown what intervention was performed. Additional information received 16Apr04: It was discovered that duplicate/multiple information had been received and that two cases had been created for this same SAE. All information is being merged into 2004-01408, which shall become the case of reference.  From information received on 14Apr04 from a field representative, the pt is 19 years old. She received IMOVAX rabies, administered IM in the left arm on 25Feb2004 at 08:30AM. At 7:00AM the following morning, the pt had a grand mal seizure.  The pt is an animal handler and was starting a pre-exposure series. The pt had a history of juvenile epilepsy since age 13, and was taking phenytoin. She had been seizure free for six months prior. Her last known seizure was 12Apr04. From a telephone conversation with a reporter on 16Apr04, it was learned that the pt did contact her physician, but it was not known if she was examined by him. The pt had a known seizure disorder with monthly seizure episodes since the age of 13 years. She had been seizure free for the last six months since starting on phenytoin. She then had a seizure on 26Feb2004 and again on 12Apr04. It was initially decided that she would not continue the pre-exposure series, but now the physician does not think that the seizure was related to the vaccine. The pt will continue the series starting again next week while under physician observation. The pt has recovered from the initial event.

Vaccine: ANTH, HEP, IPV
Symptoms: Condition aggravated, Coordination abnormal, Diplopia, Dyspnoea, Headache
Clinical narrative: Chief complaint The Chief Complaint is: Possible vaccine reaction. History of present illness  The Patient is a 41-year-old female AD LTC w/ undifferentiated connective tissue disease m/b +ANA, +RF and ESR 50 in setting of Raynaud's phenomenon. Came to medical attention after APFT failure w/ SOB and Raynaud's. Progressive SOB. Seen by Rheum w/ dx established. Pulmonary eval revealed early interstitial lung disease. Started high dose cytoxan in January. Now on 40 mg prednisone (tapered down from 60 mg). Has P4 profile with MEB in progress. Is on deficiency list for anthrax. Received only one dose of Anthrax vaccine in 12/03 upon receiving deployment orders. Also rec'd same day typhoid, injectable polio and Hep B. Smallpox exemption provided due to underlying autoimmune disorder.  Physician was concerned about deployability given P4 profile and sent her away from the SRP.  Date was 20 Dec 2003.Was fine the rest of that day but awoke with severe headache left eye diplopia and gait ataxia with drift to right. Taken to ER. Seen by doctor. Headache 9/10 unresponsive to torradol and phenergan but responded to MSO4 with decrease in pain to 4/10. Diagnosed iwith "complicated migraine" and released. Seen 3 days later by neurology. Normal MRA. On 28 Dec she was seen in pulmonary cliniic for bronchoscopy and was told she had scleroderma lung. Cytoxan and prednisone started. First treatment January 15 2004. MEB completed. and PEB has met. Patient is now awaiting final outcome. She was found fit for duty with limitations. 1. MIGRAINE HEADACHE: Presumed complicated migraine headache or symptoms consistent with this diagnosis temporarlly related to multiple vaccinations in immunocompromitzed host with underlying immunodeficiency.  2. ADVERSE EFFECT OF DRUG THERAPY VACCINES: Neurologic symptoms occurring 24 hours after multiple immunizations in immunocompromised host with underlying autoimmune disease. Possibly related to one or a combination of these vaccines. No prior history of complicated migraine but history of stress induced photophobic headaches with aura of unilateral pounding and blurred vision. Therefore cannot say with certainty that the neurologic symptoms following immunization were related to the vaccinations. No VAERS report has yet been filed so will file one now. Will give MT deferment from anthrax vaccine pending deployability decision of PEB. If found deployable, will further consider risk/benefit ratio of vaccination before allowing immunization with anthrax vaccine to proceed.

Clinical narrative: My son had a fever and was crying alot the day after his second set of immunizations. We were called by the daycare staff to come get him for medical attention, that he was feverish and crying all day. He also had an inflamed area at the injection site.  He continued to spend more time crying over the next few weeks and we were unable to get him to smile or laugh. He had an episode of spasmodic activity that seemed quite unusual however we were told that it may just be colic. Over the next week or so my wife said she noticed him tightening up when she was holding him several times but thought he had a stomach ache.  She did not mention this to me untill after he got worse.  He continued to spend alot of time crying and would not smile or laugh. Some day around 3/31/04 or 4/2/04 Daycare called and reported that he was exhibiting some strange spastic activity. I thought the spastic activity that I witnessed a few weeks earlier was an isolated incident however it apparently had been occuring all along and was becoming more frequent and exaggerated enough for his daycare staff to become alarmed.  We videotaped him having the spasms for his pediatrician who told us to get him to the hospital for an upper GI study and EEG. We took him to our local hospital who performed the upper GI study which was mostly negative. They couldn't get him in for anEEG until Monday, 4/5/04 so we drove 2 1/2 Hours to have the EEG. This was positive for Hypsarrhythmia and he was diagnosed with Infantile Spasms. He has been put on a strong, hazardous medication, ACTH and has been on it for a week. He continues to be barely responsive, crys and moans most of the day when he is not sleeping or eating. He seems to be. Weak and lethargic. He does not grab for things put in fron of him or play with his toys. I am told by his neurologists that he should start to perk up as his dosage of ACTH is reduced but I cannot help but think that he is showing signs of brain damage.

Clinical narrative: This is a 31-year-old female Caucasian who injured her 5th digit of the left hand with a drill bit on 04/07/04. She presented to the Emergency Department for care. Her wounds were attended. It was determined that she had not had a tetanus vaccination since approximately 1993, as she therefore received a Td vaccination.    The client relates that administered her vaccination "squeezed the back of my left arm close to the arm pit and injected". She states she noticed a red circle on the back of her left arm the next day after showering, but did not think much of it.  On 04/09/04 upon waking her left upper arm was swollen, red, and warm to the touch. She also felt "foggy headed". She was unable to get an appointment at the clinic so she called the TRICARE nurse line. She was instructed to take Tylenol® and use warm compresses to the area.  By 1600 hours on the 04/09, the pain had become much more intense and she reported to the Urgent Care Unit. The physician who examined her there told her that there was nothing that he could do for her. She was prescribed Vicodin® for pain and Benadryl® for the reaction. She states she took one Vicodin and "it knocked me out. I have two children and I just can't be unaware of what's going on".  She continued to use the warm compresses through the weekend.  On 04/12/04 she reported to sick call with complaints of dizziness, unable to keep her balance, nausea and vomiting. The provider examined her and diagnosed her with an inner ear problem, but felt that she should be seen by someone who deals with adverse reactions to immunizations. She reported to the immunization clinic and was referred to the Vaccine Healthcare Center for evaluation and follow-up. She currently is taking Atarax® for the dizziness. She states that the swelling in her arm is less today. She is experiencing "coldness" in her left hand and has been since 04/09/04. She is not currently experiencing the numbness and tingling that she reportedly experienced 04/09 - 04/11.
