My toddler has Autistic symptoms, as I described in my last posting. I chose to hold off on vaccines until we get some info Re: treating Leaky-gut syndrome, and even after that we probably won't immunize him unless there is a guarantee that it would not cause any adverse reactions or damage to him. I hear of kids going into full blown Autism and stopping speaking all together. If you have any info please reply. My main question is for my 6 month old who developed asthma, after receiving his 2 month immunizations. I haven't brought him back for his 4 month shots because he has been so sick with the asthma, and recently had RSV, and was hospitalized. Currently he is on an inhalable steroid and albuteral treatments. His immune system is clearly compromised, especially with the added steroid. However, the doctors don't seem to care about whether he is sick or well they want to push the vaccines regardless of the possible consequenses. This angers me, as I am a pediatric nurse, and know it is not wisdom to immunize when the child is even the slightest bit ill. Besides the fact that I heard from a research doctor, that they are now considering adding more vaccines to the list, and putting all these viruses in one shot. In the long past they wouldn't give vaccines together, and you'd never see a doctor order a shot for a sick child, now they give the newborns 4-5 at one time. My point is many more children are being diagnosed with Autism than in the past. I am torn because they push the fact that kids die from not being vaccinated, but than I think of the long term effects of the vaccine reaction on my other son. Is it clearly the mercury in the vaccine or a combo of the mercury and virus? Are there any SAFE vaccines especially for kids with weak immune systems due to allergies? I can't decide whether to get my boys immunized, out of fear that it could ruin their lives. Please help with feedback. Thanks krisyd
