Vaccines and Sensory Processing Disorders?

by paulette etcheberry
(deerfield beach, fl)

Hi my son has been diagnosed with SPD and also has Auditory processing issues. My question is there any relationship between vaccinating our children and developing SPD? I ask because I am asking because I am not very fond of the metals that are used to create this so called immunization shots that our children are submitted to every so often in order to be prevented of diseases? Bran got a flu shot a few years ago and he got a very bad reaction I Decided to never expose him again to that pain. He also started having coordination and motor issues when playing soccer, holding pencils etc. I am confused since I see that pediatrician's don't have answers and give our kids shots freely without even thinking of the possibilities of Autism, Sensory disorders and Aspergers.He is going to be in kindergarten and I Know the schools require a shot form before even register our kids. There must be a way to avoid poisoning our little ones!!

Please any input will be gladly taken.

Thanks in advance

Think twice and do your research... NEW

First of all, this should not be a fight between parents who vaccinate and parents who don't. Let's understand that we all want the best for our children. But I strongly feel it is so important to research the vaccines so you understanding exactly what ingredients are in them and the side effects to make an informed decision. I feel that parents who believe in vaccinating usually have no experience with children who have suffered from vaccine damage and probably feel the government would not allow it if it weren't safe and that there is no proof.

Well, I am here to tell you there IS proof. My coworker worked with a child who was neurologically impaired and in a wheelchair from vaccine and all treatments were funded by the government because they have a fund set up for children who have been damaged by vaccines so obviously they are COMPLETELY AWARE that it happens!!!! A friend of mine had a son who became autistic after a vaccine, filed a complaint and now has NO access to his medical record of the incident because government officials went to the pediatric office to remove the record and the nurse at the office said that is NOT the first time that has happened. She called several times and got nowhere with the government trying to retrieve his chart.

You will here statistics but two things to think about... #1 the statistics are so much worse then what they report because a lot of cases are covered up like I just spoke about and #2 whatever the statistics are- do you want someone telling you that devastating affects happen but are fairly rare and take that chance? Do you want your child to be a statistic? I don't. Another thing I hear parents say is "My kids were vaccinated and they're fine." That's crazy because #1 every person is so different as far as how they are affected by diet, environment, medications, etc etc so you cannot generalize the entire population and #2 really, is your child fine? So many disorders are on the rise including ADHD, SIDS, emotional issues, psych and learning disabilities, developmental and speech delays, sensory processing issues and the list goes on. Do people not realize these are all neurological functions that can be greatly affected by the presence of a neurotoxin which ARE contained in vaccines. And let's realize that so many of the vaccines are for diseases that are either very mild, almost nonexistent or easily treatable. Chickenpox?? Really?? And realize that an educated person knows immediately when something is not right with their child and seeks medical attention immediately in order to avoid any long term issues. Everyone has a right to their own beliefs but please do your research!

4 year old vaccines NEW
by: Anonymous

My question is that my daughter has been diagnosed with SPD & is now due for her 4 year old vaccines. Will getting these vaccines trigger something worse in her? How do I make this decision? I've gotten her the rest of them, but I'm worried about the controversial 4 year old vaccines.

So what happens when... NEW
by: Anonymous

...your child contracts one of the diseases for which you choose not to vaccinate, and passes that along to other children who (for whatever reason, be it un-vaccinated or a failed vaccine) never recover? Does the passing of that child weigh on your conscience? It should!

Hard to tell NEW
by: Anonymous

I don't know if we will ever know for sure, but our son was diagnosed with SPD when he was in kindergarten. We had noticed various problems when he entered preschool, which appeared to be social issues. However a very astute kindergarten teacher recognized the symptoms as neurological and not social. He is the only one (#3) of our 4 children who have any kind of dysfunction, and interestingly is also the only one who received the whole slew of vaccines required to get into school. If it weren't for the fact that he seemed extra-sensitive to typically soothing touch as an infant, I would probably have no doubt in my mind that it was from the ingredients in the inoculations. Personally, I'd rather be safe than sorry, which is why the others did not receive as many as this one. It just so happened that we gave in to the medical professional pressure and went against our better judgment. I really hate to admit that, but it was a moment of weakness. We have to be our own child's advocate. What is acceptable for one is not necessarily beneficial for all.

Vaccines NEW
by: Anonymous

In our case I know that my daughter's sensory issues weren't caused by vaccinations (because she's never received a vaccine). We opted out of vaccines for our kids because we aren't convinced that the ingredients used in vaccines are safe.

In our state, you can sign an exemption form to opt out of the school's vaccine requirements, but I know the criteria for exemption varies from state to state. It's worth checking in to if you think the vaccines are negatively affecting his health.

causes SPD? NEW
by: Anonymous

This is a question that I had too. But perhaps because I think more to genetics, there are cases of fathers and sons,mothers and sons, brothers SPD.E for logic suggests that some genetic mutation yet to be ascertained. Of course, not be ruled out other possible causes.this is just my humble thoughts.
