Are you getting a whooping cough booster?
Comments (21)PNW residents especially - (medically documented cases of pertussis, NOT documented cases of excess serum to be used :) April 3, 2012 Whooping cough cases reach epidemic levels in much of Washington All teens and adults need a whooping cough booster OLYMPIA Today Secretary of Health Mary Selecky announced that whooping cough disease has reached epidemic levels in Washington. So far in 2012, 640 cases have been reported in 23 counties as of March 31. This compares to 94 cases during this same time period last year, putting Washington on-pace to have the highest number of reported cases in decades. "We're very concerned about the continued rapid increase in reported cases," said Secretary of Health Mary Selecky. "This disease can be very serious for young babies, who often get whooping cough from adults and other family members. We want all teens and adults who haven't had Tdap to be vaccinated to help protect babies that are too young for the vaccine."...See MoreSide effects of rabies shots?
Comments (6)If they have a lack of interest in food, start throwing up bile or continue with the lack of engergy, get them back to the vet as not a side effect but a reaction. Dogs have died from the rabies shot. I sincerely hope they are OK. Lynn...See MoreShingles vaccine side effects
Comments (9)I wonder if cortisone cream might help you? Several years ago I had a similar reaction from a flu shot - it wasn't the vaccine itself but apparently I was allergic to a preservative used. Mine got hot, swelled and itched like crazy. I took tylenol for the soreness and used cortisone cream (my doctors recommendations) and it did help. Might be worth a try....See MoreAcyclovir Side Effects, Anyone?
Comments (4)Thanks for the input. I suppose this could be due to my body being overwhelmed with toxic poisons after seven months of chemo. Doctors started prescribing the anti-herpes Acyclovir years ago, once they saw a 30% and greater incidence of Shingles in patients getting Velcade. I'm told that what I have cannot be Shingles because that is always limited to one quadrant of the body. This sensitivity is across my entire midriff in a 4 - 6 inch band from side to side under my breasts. There is no rash. I don't know of any help for Shingles. My oncologist has prescribed gabapentin. I'm waiting a week to see if halving the Acyclovir to 400 mg will help. (OTOH, I sure don't want to *Get Shingles* because I didn't have enough Acyclovir!) patriciae -- I did look up the side effects. As I said, my four are among the top side effects for Acyclovir -- and none are in the list for Velcade. Yes, *I* too think it IS Shingles, but the MD's say it *can't be*, citing the 'quadrant' rule. I think the best move will be to get off both Velcade and Acyclovir! Evidently that can't happen until I'm seen by the top MM doctor at Northwestern Memorial, who diagnosed the MM in May. My appointment is Feb. 18....See MoreMDLN
