Clinical narrative: This child presented with diabetic ketoacidosis on 12/01/00. He has recovered but he has juvenile diabetes. On 10/24/00 the patient was given a Prevnar vaccine. On 11/22/00, the patient returned for a visit because he was listless, urinating excessively, and constantly thirsty. He was prescribed Amoxicillin. He was brought back to the doctors office on 12/01/00 because his just described symptoms persisted and had become worse. At this point he was diagnosed with diabetes and taken to the hospital. For the following reasons, the parents suspect that their son's diabetes was caused by the Prevnar vaccine he received : At the time he received the injection he was in good health.
