swine-flu-reaction

From Fox News:

WASHINGTON, D.C. – An Ashburn, Virginia woman is in the fight of her life after suffering a very rare side effect to the seasonal flu shot.

The vast majority of doctors say flu shots are safe. In this case, the FDA says they found nothing wrong with this particular batch, but sometimes there are complications.

That’s apparently what happened to Desiree Jennings, and now her life will never be the same.

At 26 years old, Desiree Jennings was the picture of health. She’s a Washington Redskins cheerleader and an avid runner. Her life changed forever on August 23 when she says she got a seasonal flu shot at a local grocery store.

“I was training for a half marathon then,” said Jennings, crying. “It just all went so fast.”

Ten days after receiving the shot, she came down with the flu. After that, her health spiraled downwards. She started passing out and had to be hospitalized twice.

“We went to an urgent care place and they wouldn’t even let her get out of my truck because she was seizing in the back so bad, so they called an ambulance immediately,” says her husband, Brendan Jennings.

Doctors at Fairfax Inova and Johns Hopkins diagnosed her with a rare neurological disorder called dystonia. They think it was caused by a severe reaction to the flu shot.

Desiree now has difficulty speaking, walking, and even eating. During an interview with FOX 5, she had several seizures. The effects are irreversible.

    Thank goodness I’ve informed my kids longtime ago not to take any of these recent flu shots. There’s other natural remedies and fruits you can eat to increase your immune system without purely relying on government controlled vaccines. People need to wake up and open their eyes more to what’s going on and not always so quick to join the line.

    Congratulations to NewsOne for accurately headlining an article. I know it was difficult it is for you, but I knew you could do it…

    Then again, the subject in the story isn’t black, so there was no need to create additional hype and upset the dumber, less-civilized segment of our population who can’t read beyond the headlines…(LOL)

    OMG!!! This is truly sad and unfortunate. What is even more sad is the fact that the FDA has a LOT of other “killers” out there that they refrain from placing warning labels on because they stand to $PROFIT$ significantly from them. Education is key. I am all for all natural supplements & limit any kind of over the counter drugs, medications, or vaccines. For that reason I have NEVER gotten a flu shot and prohibit my son from doing the same. I smell a lawsuit coming from this & rightfully so (smh)!

    What a sad day in American medicine. This woman had so much going for herself and now it’s all ruined becuse she took preventive measures. The media has stigmatized with this H1N1 hysteria.I have never had the flu or a flu shot and I don’t plan on getting the shot. Someone needs to be held responsible for this and appropiate actions need to be taken to ensure this won’t happen again. My friends have told me stories about the flu shot and they were not good. I feel realy bad for her.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/jazzpast/ jazzpast

    H1N1 vaccine has been publicly made mandatory in two states. I believe they are Massachusetts and Virginia. In addition, those that does not comply to the aforementioned ordinance has to pay $1000 fine for everyday that they refuse to take the vaccine. The company Novavax produced 250 million vaccines PRE-swine flu pandemic for our country alone, so ponder on that.

    H1N1 contains mercury which is deadly when consume by humans, and it contains squalene. Squalene is a synthetic chemical that was added as an ingredient to the pre-medication given to the soldiers in the 1990′s Gulf War. This is the chemical that causes soldiers to have the Gulf War Syndrome, in layman’s term they lost their mind and died.The same ingredient is included in the H1N1 vaccine,the only difference is they put 3 times the dosage on the vaccine comparable to the one during the Gulf War.Remember as you watch the news, kids are dying more and more as they take these flu vaccines. Always ask questions, and while your computer is still free to use, take advantage of it by finding the truth.Also, Black folks the library is still a public entity, use it while you can. Time to Arm up and Man up.

    Peace and Love

    OMG! Is this what it can do to you? I was just checking my email and got this notification in my inbox to read. I just had surgery today and the doctor was looking for dystonia. I saw it written on the intake form but by the time they took me back, I completely forgot to ask the nurse what it was. God bless this sister. I pray this is not what they found, but I will find out next Wednesday.

    I was just watching the talk show called “Doctors” and there’s a lady on there that they are following with this same disease. She was a ballet dancer and now she can hardly walk or function in society at all. Though her’s was not contracted by a flu vaccine, it’s definately a scary disease! I’ve never had a flu shot before ever in life and I was actually thinking about getting one until I saw this!!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Da_J_Rok/ Da_J_Rok

    What gets me is, normally they never would have sent any paperwork home with my son asking to sign it and return it on whether I want him to get a normal flu shot and the h1n1. So when they did that im thinkin…hmmmmmm? Any other time they would have just sent a letter saying he need to get updated, but now I gotta sign a permission slip??? GTF outta here… REVOLUTION IS NOW!!! BLACK PEOPLE BETTER PUT ASIDE YOUR DIFFERENCES AND COME TOGETHER!!! REVOLUTION IS NOW!!!

    In william bradleys book the white man inheritance he talks about the swine flu scare in 1975. Keep in mind this is around the time henry kissinger put out the global 2000 report.

    The swine flu came from a biological warfare reseach center that supposedly leaked this stuff out in fort dix newjersey. And the first to die from it was the two guards at the lab

    But phuked up part about it most ppl died from the vaccinations that was givin for this swine flu then in 1975. And many ppl had the same symptons this woman got from those vaccinations

    Isn’t it odd how the FDA approves medacines that have fatal side effects. Telling the human population that it’s o.k. to take these medacines. Think about it…Why is it that the FDA doesn’t approve natural healing herbs? (Plants from the earth that heal without any side effects!).. Simple..It’s about MONEY.. Doctors can’t be honest with the patient when they have profit to lose, and loans to payback.. There’s a natural herbal remedy for almost anything you can name, including the number one killer CANCER!…Do your research online..You’ll find clinics that practiced natural medacine with a patient healing rates at 95 to 98 % were shut down by the FDA.. America doesn’t wonna heal you..America wants to make money off of you.. Even in the bible God says use the herbs of the earth to heal yourself.. He also says my people will perish from lack of knowledge.. And it’s happening..EVERYWHERE!..EVERYWHERE!.. Do your research…The results will be shocking.. Herbal remedies are the way to go.. But I will admit, some things you will have to go to a doctor for…

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/truthserumX/ truthserumX

    I’ve never had a flu vaccine and yet I’ve never had the flu! Its amazing, we see all the side effects on TV we hear them in every commercial yet like ignoramuses we line up to get them. You don’t have to get them, just check the box that says “I waive my vaccine requirement.”

    Fasting is our natural doctor. God equiped us with our own doctor, and it’s free. Thank You Lord. I recently went on a 40 day fast and I felt so much better. Fasting also cures cancer and a lot of other diseases like diabetes, high blood pressure. I did a lot of research on fasting before I started it. You’d be amazed at all the things that fasting can cure. Our bodies were made to heal itself. When you fast you’re body has time to kill the poison that was in your last meal, drink, etc. Let your stomach rest sometimes. Fast even cures colon cancer. Because fasting cleans out your colon. Fasting is the best detox that you can do for your body. But like y’all been saying doctors lie about fasting because it’s all about the money. Doctors are the biggest drug dealers in the world.

    *sigh* what’s new? The government testing stuff out on the American people, and seriously!! It’s a form of the flu, why get vaccinated if your young and healthy up your vitamin C and stay clean and away from others that might be sick! Most of the flu cases are of young and elderly people, it’s very unfortunate this happened to her I would be pissed and trying my best to sue the government….can you sue the government?

    Bug ups to itsmissbrown, the only thing people need to do to stay health in the cold and flu season and throughout the year as well is everyday or every
    other day is take a vitamin C pill, and I know this for a fact, I have been taking Vitamin C for almost 2 years now and I have yet to get sick from the cold or catch the flu, so instead of going pay between 25 and 30 dollars to stuck in the arm with a liquid you know nothing about, take the time get some Vitamin C take a pill everyday or every other day and see the results for yourself, you will not get sick, and I put that Christ himself.

    I really feel bad for this woman. No one should have to go through that trying to do what they can to stay on top of their health. But yes, this is the state of our health care industry today. The bad medication, the too few quality medication, the withholding of medication from those who have no insurance coverage. What are you gonna do? We’re screwed either way.

    All this constant H1N1 coverage on the news is just making everyone so frantic that there’s nothing but chaos in these hospitals and clinics with people trying to get the vaccination. First they say the vaccination is only available for certain people then they come back saying the that they’re running out of the supply, now this display of this woman’s tragedy as a possible side effect of taking the vaccination. It’s all a bunch of mass hysteria hype! Yes, the swine flu epidemic a serious concern, it is hitting closer to our homes and it is frightening, but I think the media’s reporting of this situation everyday is causing more panic than perhaps necessary.

    Well yetistillrise, I am all for the fasting for some sis but here is my story dealing with Dystonia and I all I eat is healthy. Just fish, vegetables and fruits. I aso do not smoke or drink anything other than water, and juices.
    Yesterday, I had a surgical procedure for Dystonia. I had not actually ever heard of this until I was passed the form yesterday for me to sign for the treatment of it by the registrar at the hospital. When I asked her how long the procedure would take, she told me about 3 hours.
    Red Flag Alert!
    I had just told my daughter to just drop me off and that I would call her when I was ready for her to come back for me. I was alone now with no support. OMG! When she did come back for me, I could not stand up straight and could hear my vocal ability fading slowly. At first I was very hoarse. But later, I could only whisper and was very short of breath.
    I have not been able to walk without bending over yet and every time I ate something yesterday, I went to sleep for what seemed like hours at a time…just as this young lady in the video is stating about passing out when she eats.
    The spasms in my back are out of control and hurt like hell! I feel them in my throat and my chest now as well as all over my back. I brushed it off as much as I could yesterday and tried to have thoughts about a good strong massage would take care of it. Unfortunately, These are not those kinds of pain anymore. It feels like a bowling ball is in different areas of my back in patches.
    I finally fought last night around 11pm to lift myself off of the couch after my daughter came in from work to get into my own bed. My poor daughter did not know what to do and I could hear her asking me questions but I could not answer her last night.It actually was too hard to speak.
    The nurse however preparing me for the procedure put a tube into my nose that struck me in the side of my neck as it was passing down to my stomach twice. For some reason, the hospital could not decide to put me to sleep or to have me awake throughout the procedure. OMG!!! My brain kept telling me to leave but the tube was already in my neck poking me with a great burning sensation and by that time, all I could do was to cry out a scream in the pitch of a sharp C that you would normally hear me sing on stage. The pain was the worst pain since I had my two kids.
    I woke up this morning with the same spasms as I did since I left the hospital yesterday and saw this morning that the news reports were really getting into this story. The only difference is that the focus is more based upon it being from the flu shot. For me, that is not the case though. I have not had a flu shot in 3 yrs. I am definitely praying for this sister as I am for me as well. When I left my house yesterday I never knew that this was what I was being tested for. Now I am finding out that I had already been diagnosed with it and the surgical procedure on yesterday was to see if I would be a candidate for the 8 hour procedure to fix it. I wonder if I passed. Hmph. My question now in confuse-ment is why the doctor hid it from me? I thank God that he found it now so I at least have a chance however. I am more confused however that I swim everyday for over an hour doing 20 plus laps, walked 5 miles per day, belly danced 3 times per week and lifted weights twice per week and now this????? Hugh? What part about this makes any sense to me right now.?????? Some of us never think that could happen to us. Right? Hmph again.
    My results and options are going to be discussed with me next week. I just wanted to share this article with a few people who really had strong interest in what Dystonia can really do to healthy people too. God bless…

    I had to comment on Taurus216′s ignorant comments. Obviously this is the first anyone has heard of this side effect, the vaccine hasn’t been out long enough for long term studies and everyone’s biology is different. Just because there is a list of side effects for your herpes medication doesn’t mean that there’s one for this. And as for her husband, his staying with her is what love is and what a real man does. Marriage is for better or worse, in sickness and health. I wouldn’t expect someone of your calibur to comprehend that though. Be careful the things you say, it just may come back on you one day when you least expect it. Your mother must be so proud of what she hatched. Snake.

    Lol its not funny but it is I mean who goes to the grocery store to get a flu shot? I mean that dont even sound right. I agree though I mean we going to get sick irregardless. Isnt one of the side effects of getting the flu shot a lil bit of the flu? So if thats going to happen anyway why increse your chance? Messing with anything that hasnt been around for that long should also be a red flag. I totally think this is just another experimental shot that cheap people pay for instead of going to the doctor reguralry and having proper care. The next thing that is going to happen is Zombies right? I mean look at her this is kinda freaky!!!!

    How come jeffery dahlmer aint have the shakes (kuru)

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/msveevee1/ msveevee1

    I’m surprised to know anything about this side effect b/cuz I am a nurse and I am currently giving the flu shots all over metro OK. I mean, you should see these white ppl, young and old, standing in line for hours and pay 25-30 bucks to get the 0.5 ml of this stuff. They always ask me if I’m gonna get the shots and I always tell them that I don’t trust it. Alot of ppl come in so ignorant of what the shot is or what it’s side effects are. But they act like we are giving out candy and free?” And as my professional duty, I give them what they pay for, but I myself do not trust the government like that to take anything like this from them. They use ppl as guinea pigs yanno?

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/msveevee1/ msveevee1

    *free money*

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/msveevee1/ msveevee1

    And we’ve been giving the flu shots at grocery stores, retail shops, factories, banks. B/cuz not only is it convenience, but there’s a high demand for it. Ppl really think this is going to cure them from catching the flu. Some it does and some it doesn’t. Being that everybody’s different. We get affected differently as well. That just let’s you know how many followers are out there. So when the mark of the beast is demanded by our government to say we need to get it or else we’ll die, you already know there will be an army of folks running to go get it, don’t you?

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/jayslay34/ jayslay34

    @ msveevee1, I’m with you on that… I tried it twice in my life and after the last time i said never again… I don’t get the flu or even really get sick, so why take something that’s goin to make me sick>??? That’s crazy>!! I only get sick when i get a flu shot and it really last when i get it … i mean like off and on for a month and the last time it was almost 2 months … that’s crazy>! So no more wonder drug for me!!!!

    And that video is so sad.. I pray for strength for them both.. And there is no such thing as irreversible, God can change and restore all things>!!!

    At the same time (sorry keep on adding stuff), but she might be allergic to the mercury that’s mixed in with the virus (Thirmesol). Just like they say that getting regular vaccinations for the kids caused alot of them to have autism. And the reaction is somewhat similar to this lady’s condition. They do inject either the killed influenza virus or the partial living virus b/cuz your body has to build up antibodies so that it can fight it off and not give you such a strong reaction to the virus. I always let those ppl I give it to what to expect. We also have information on it that we pass out so that they can read over it. But if you know ppl like I do, sometimes we don’t read thouroughly. Especially the small print and that’s when you can be signing your life away. So make sure to READ. Everything requires reading and then when we don’t and wonder why so much strangeness happens in our lives, we end up finding out that our John Hanc**k has signed over our rights to our life. That’s why I take pride in reading and researching. Knowledge=power and wisdom. I recommend everybody gets some. Also, the lady above received the seasonal flu, not the swine. That’s still being manufactured. Some ppl in certain areas have gotten it. And it’s only recommended for the young (under 55) and pregnant. Swine flu has been around since the 50′s-60′s. This is a new strain of the swine flu.

    Sorry fellas but that’s not fake… if you have ever seen someone with a similar problem, you would know that it’s hard to fake it and plus, she’s been to not one but several doctors…

    WOW! I have it and I am not a fake. Someone really needs to look this disease up on the site while you are online. I guess nothing is real to some people until it strikes home. Sad! This can actually kill you. I can’t believe some of these insensitive comments about this being fake. What’s fake about a flu shot harming a person’s body that perhaps have had another ailment in them that did not agree with this vaccine. Or worst for the other unbelieved here..what is fake about a woman who’s neurological system is off balanced by a Dystonia which makes her run better than she can walk moving forward and who can walk backwards but can no longer walk forward?
    Some of you people are really going full speed ahead in the **** department of intelligence. Who raised some of you?
    Wow!

    Taurus216, I’m not certain if you were addressing me when speaking of the literal meaning of the word ignorant, but that is the only way I use the word. Yes you are ignorant, ignorant to the fact that this vaccination hasn’t been on the market long enough to know the side effects (side effects is two words for the ignorant…take note). I’m already educated and even if I wasn’t you’d be the last person I’d be getting to help me in the quest to get educated. Anyway, thinking like yours and Maatra’s is exactly why women generalize men as no good dogs, but if the tables were turned and a woman spoke that way about leaving a man in this predicament everyone would be slamming her. But your reaction isn’t so much a reflection on your gender as it is a reflection of your upbringing…or lack thereof.

    I saw this on the news and it was just so sad. I don’t like any needles that have to be injected into the muscles; I am very terrified of them. But just before seeing this, I decided that maybe my daughter and I should get the flu shot this year because of everyone dying from H1N1 but I was still very skeptical. Either way, I dragged my feet and saw this on the news the next day. I was so thankful that i didn’t get it for us. Everyone is right, the gov’t doesn’t care about people and they do use us as guinea pigs. SMH

    maatra, I love reading your comments, cause you keep it real and you make a sista feel good. Thank you for that. In a world where the sista is thrown away like a piece of trash to get to any and everything but a sista. Thank you brotha.

    i was going to say exactly what maatra about “the shakes (kuru)”…but he said it but

    YAWN thats this life 4 yo azz

    but not the racist shyt..4 i leave that all to yal lmao

    as far as taurus216, the only thing that caught my eye is how you act as if she DESERVED it. the little girl that sneaks out at night doesnt DESERVE to get raped. the baby that followed the man with candy didnt DESERVE to get kidnapped. the brotha that stood his ground didnt DESERVE to get his azz kicked by the police. our ancestors that sold our other ancestors—those ancestors didnt DESERVE all that has happened (slavery, oppression, etc..).

    As a HUMAN (minus the color because no matter the race we are all pawns to this system) its disgusting how those of which that govern this world are ok with treating life as it were worthless

    From a flu shot? WTF is in that shyt? OMG that is horrible…

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/ria40/ ria40

    See this is what happens when you take experimental drugs. I am not going to be a guinea pig for anyone. I’d rather have the flu than to subject myself to possible death or life threatening side affects. You get what you pay for and trying not to get the flu has led to this.

    There is something wrong with that story? There are alot of questions that need to be asked? According to the little information in the report she was health conscious and training for a marathon. Is she suseptable to getting the flu? If not why even get the flu shot? Why is a healthy 26 year old woman even getting a flu shot???? Is she allergic to the mercury base of this so called flu shot?
    This story says be informed by what the medical industry says is a cure-all for getting the flu!

    The Flu virus comes in many different strains. The vaccine they inject you with is just the one that is the most prevalent during that particular season. You can still catch the flu. Also, the vaccine is a “dead” virus they inject into your bloodstream to build up antibodies. You can exhibit signs and symptoms of having the flu after having the shot. If someone has allergies to eggs/feathers….Guillain-Barre syndrome…..or are running a fever SHOULD NOT get the vaccine. This lady’s case sounds like she had an underlying condition of Guillain-Barre that she wasn’t aware of and the shot triggered the reaction. With therapy, she can almost return to normal. It’ll just take time.
