Initial report received from patient's mother and a health care professional on 16 September 2010 and 20 September 2010. A 6-9 month old infant, with an aunt who has a history of epilepsy, received on 28 November 2005 injections (routes and sites not provided) of DTaP, Flu vaccine and PREVNAR (no manufacturers or lot numbers provided). The patient's mother reported that her 5-year old son had some shots as an infant and 1 week later experienced small tonic/clonic seizures. The patient's health care provider was contacted which stated the patient was not seen by them as an infant and only recently brought the child in for a well visit. It was suggested that the patient get his vaccinations and the mother hedged because of her concerns that they were contaminated with mercury. The health care professional did not administer any vaccines to the patient at that time. The mother was contacted to find out what vaccines her son had received as an infant. On 26 July 2005 and 20 September 2005 he received DTaP, Polio, HIB, Hepatitis B, and PREVNAR (no manufacturers or lot numbers provided). On 28 November 2005, he received DTaP, Flu vaccine and PREVNAR. On 30 December 2005, he received a flu vaccine (manufacturer and lot number not provided). On 05 September 2006, the patient received MMR (manufacturer and lot not provided). On 05 June 2006, he received HIB, Hepatitis B, VARIVAX and PREVNAR (manufacturers and lot numbers not provided). On 06 June 2006, he received Hepatitis A (manufacturer and lot number not provided). On 08 December 2006, he received DTaP, Polio, Flu vaccine and Hepatitis A (manufacturers and lot numbers not provided). The patient's mother reported that when her son was around 6-9 months old he experienced 3 seizures that were less than 5 seconds long with tonic/clonic movements that never re-occurred again. During the seizures he did not wet his diaper and was fully alert afterwards. Around 9 months of age he began to demonstrate a delay in his speech and was referred for speech therapy. Per the mother, the son exhibited Aspberger's type autism symptoms. The son had issues with spitting up at that time and underwent swallowing tests and ended up having his adenoids taken out because of chronic rhinorrhea and occasional sinus infections. He also had allergy screening that was negative. At 18 months of age the son was re-evaluated and placed with a different service. At age 2 and 1/2 years the patient switched therapists and within 7 months the son's speech improved and he caught up with his age level but still had some pragmatic issues and was currently off 100% on saying pronouns. The mother stated the doctor mentioned that it sounded like the son was trying to speak Spanish. The mother was told not to speak any other language around son so not to confuse him. The mother stated she was a bilingual teacher and spoke Spanish, French and also knew sign language. The mother reported that her career was a waste of time because she could not speak the languages to her son. The mother was unable to provide the name of a physician or facility where medical records could be requested to obtain additional information regarding first symptoms experienced. The mother stated that her son's physician "up and retired on her." She stated that when she called the office to make the son's 5 year-old well visit, the office told her the doctor had retired. The mother stated the doctor's office did not have any records for her son and that she had never told the doctor that her son had the seizures because she did not want her son to go through EEG's and other testing. The mother stated that no one has been following her son as he only saw the doctor who retired once a year. Per the mother, her sister had epilepsy and she knows the signs of this type of behavior. She stated that she recently took her son to Pediatrics for the first visit and to get his 5 year-old vaccinations, but that he had not received them yet as she was concerned the vaccines contained mercury. She stated that Pediatrics has all her son's records and to contact them for further information. The outcome was not reported. Documents held by sender: None.
