Clinical narrative: I had these welts on the back of my head that were raised but flat and about the size of a quarter. I kept an eye on it for about a week or two then they went away. On 03/15/2022 in the evening  I felt a small raised spot on the crown of my head that itched. I went and looks in the mirror and it was a small red dot and I scratched it. That evening I noticed the spot had gotten bigger and it hurt. It also started to spread all the way down the back of my neck and spread toward the sides. They don't have a white heads. Each one is about the size of a dime in diameter. I have tried topical ointments that have not helped. I also used Chlorhexidine gluconate which also did not help. I did go to the doctor and they did a scrape test and they couldn't find a cause. She did say that they boils were puss filled. A tea tree shampoo and condition did seem to help with the itching. I also ground up aspirin and mixed it with coconut oil to use topically and it definitely seems to help. Now the itching is on the top of my head and the back of my neck. It is about 95% better.

Symptoms: Dysphemia, Dysstasia, Feeling cold, Nervous system disorder, Speech disorder
Clinical narrative: This was his second vaccine ever in his life. Again, hypotonic/hyporesponsive event right after the vaccine: he could not stand up. His eyes did not get bloodshot as they did with the dtap, however his speech got progressively worse. He stutters at the end of words, not all the time, sometimes more, sometimes less. Nonetheless, this is a progressive neurological problem and I am concerned. He never did this prior to vaccines in all of his years of speech therapy, he actually graduated from speech therapy in July 2021.  Also he complains very frequently that his back is cold. Nowhere else on his body is cold, only his back (which is part of the neurological system). He never complained of this prior to vaccination. His pediatrician referred us to a pediatric neurologist, we are waiting to be seen next month.
