Flu vaccines

[Beverly]

Hi Hopeful....I have had swollen cartilage, both ears purple/red , very painful . It was also very noticeable since I had short hair. I believe they upped my pred, don't remember how much.
It was a flare, but not from flu shot. Haven't had one of those in many years.
Glad that you are receiving some extra special treatment from hubby ! Never can get too much of that!!

Read this article (I didn't look to see if this has been posted before, if it has my apologies):

Vaccination and Renal Patients: A critical examination of assumed safety and effectiveness | International Medical Council on Vaccination


I'm sending this to my Doc to get some feedback. You can't sue vaccine makers, but you can file a claim with the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program:

Frequently Asked Questions About Vaccines

This got my attention:

"The VICP will offer to pay up to $250,000 for a vaccine associated death.
The VICP will offer to pay for all past and future unreimbursed medical expenses, custodial and nursing home care; and up to $250,000 pain and suffering as well as loss of earned income.
If an individual rejects the award or is denied compensation, a lawsuit may be filed in civil court but with certain restrictions.
Claims must be filed within 24 months of a death and 36 months of an injury."


Bet your behind after I get some positive feedback (if I do) from my Doc, I'm meeting with an attorney to toss this around a little.

I got my bloods done and my ANCA did not rise, so the flu shot did not trigger a flare, thank goodness. Unfortunately it did appear to give me the flu. Feeling typically flu-ish for the past 2 months and of course there's nothing to be done except treat the symptoms. Don't think I'll have any more flu shots - at least for a while.

Hi Andrew. I think we have the same one. (?) Paul Gatenby at National Capital Private Hospital. I've done a small display on him and his immunology research here at the science library. I suppose it's really not ethical to do that, but he is an emeritus professor here at the ANU and we certainly need more doctors trained in immunology, since it appears to be an important link in so many diseases.

I have an attorney looking into my case right now.

In my province that have legislated a new law, just like in many other states and countries, that if a health care worker does get the flu shot then they have to wear a mask. Talk about bullying and communism from the Masonic powers. Soon it will be forced on us as well.
