How many more have suffered or died that has not been reported?

Woman claims swine-flu shot caused paralysis
CDC: 10 reports of Guillain-Barre Syndrome following H1N1 vaccine in last 2 months

A Tennessee woman is learning to walk again after she came down with a deadly nerve disease only eight days after receiving the swine-flu vaccine.

Clarksville resident Suzanne Hogan is recovering at Vanderbilt University Medical Center's Stallworth Rehabilitation Center from Guillain-Barre Syndrome, or GBS, an illness she believes is associated with the H1N1 vaccination.

GBS attacks the lining of the nerves, causing paralysis and inability to breathe, and can be fatal. Symptoms may include "pins and needles" sensations in fingers and toes; weakness or tingling in legs and upper body; inability to walk; difficulty with eye movement, facial movement, speaking, chewing or swallowing; severe lower back pain; difficulty with bladder control or intestinal functions; very slow heart rate or low blood pressure; difficulty breathing; choking on saliva and even complete paralysis of legs, arms and breathing muscles over the course of a few hours.

Hogan was hospitalized Nov. 14 when she lost function of her legs and was unable to walk without assistance. She is now learning how to master motor skills.

Suzanne's husband, Shannon, told the Leaf-Chronicle no one else in his family will take the H1N1 vaccine.

"They expect Suzanne to have a 100 percent recovery. We just want people to know the risk," he said. "If you've ever watched anyone go through Guillain-Barre, you would rather go through the flu."

Other GBS cases after H1N1 vaccination

In November, a 14-year-old Virginia boy also came down with GBS only hours after receiving the H1N1 vaccine. He became weak and struggled to walk.

Jordan McFarland, a high school athlete from Alexandria, left the hospital in a wheelchair after he developed severe headaches, muscle spasms and weakness in his legs following the shot, MSNBC reported. He now requires assistance of a walker and extensive physical therapy.

"The doctor said I'll recover fully, but it's going to take some time," he said.

Also during November, a woman in France was diagnosed with GBS only six days after receiving the H1N1 vaccine.

Another unnamed adult in Canada was diagnosed with GBS only three weeks after receiving the H1N1 flu shot in November.

Likewise, a 16-year-old boy experienced dizziness right after his Nov. 16 shot and contracted GBS. He was admitted to a hospital when his arms and legs became paralyzed, the Korea Herald reported.

More recently, a family in Albuquerque, N.M., claim the H1N1 vaccine may have been responsible for their 14-month-old daughter's nervous system disorder called ataxia.

"In that two-week period after [the shot], she just started gradually going down and going down, her father told KOAT-TV. "She would stand up and she would just collapse over."

The girl's parents say a neurologist told them the condition may have been an adverse effect of the H1N1 vaccine.

GBS link to H1N1?

Use of a similar swine flu vaccine in the United States in 1976 resulted in 25 people suffering from severe paralysis and dying from respiratory failure after being injected with the vaccine – more than the number of lives claimed from the virus itself.

In 1976, health officials found nearly 500 cases of GBS, and the vaccine was withdrawn 10 weeks after the link with GBS was suspected. Following the 1976 vaccination against swine flu in the U.S., a retrospective study found a likely eight-fold increase in the incidence of GBS. Although the vaccine was withdrawn when the connection was made, the U.S. government paid millions to settle suits by those injured or killed.

As WND reported in August this year, two letters from the U.K.'s Health Protection Agency to top neurologists warned doctors to watch for an increase in cases of the fatal disorder.

"I would not have the swine-flu jab because of the GBS risk," a senior neurologist told London's Mail.

The HPA letters noted the lack of testing on the new vaccine and called on neurologists to monitor and report every incident of GBS so the product could be withdrawn if problems were identified.

Hello Sister Barbara,

I could be wrong, but I think the forum recognizes you as a SENIOR MEMBER when the number of your posts goes over 250.

 Grin  I think that describes a lot of us, but someone with the initials of DreamWeaver won't admit it. He prefers to be known as youngster since some of us might be several months (or more) older than he is. "Or more" is a distinction in this statement.
