Going on two years ago, my mom took her last flu vaccine. That's because doctors have barred her from taking another, since the last one she took paralyzed her from the waist down. After much rehab, she can still barely walk with a cane. She has recently switched back to a walker. Before her paralysis, she was amazingly active and agile for her age, getting around like an average sixty year old, despite being eighty. There are real dangers associated with it, which magnify with the frequency with which you take it.
Sounds like Guillian-Barre' Syndrome.
Yes.
A very rare complication, but one that I am quite well aware of and know a good bit about.
and what goes over his head is because his mom was suseptable to it it was just as likely she would have got it had she got the flu without a vaccine....its an auto immune responce caused by a hell of alot of things, including coming down with the flu.....hell vaccines, given to how many people each year cause only around 40% of GB cases in the US....
if you run the numbers you are more likely to be killed by not getting the vaccine cause you come down with the exact strain it protects against than the chance of coming down with GB....
