keeptrying Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 now that tdap is required, I can no longer slide under the radar at school. I know there are exemptions but also know our doctor doesn't agree with me (her own child has TS) and probably won't write letter. We are just now trying HRT and trying to get a handle on the tics and I am terrified of what could happen. Has anyone given tdap to there child and had any or no problems?

blakes_mom Posted April 26, 2013 Report Share Posted April 26, 2013 Depending on your state you can probably get a religious exemption. I just printed the form off online and had it notarized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mar Posted April 26, 2013 Report Share Posted April 26, 2013 Like ds would say "I follow you". It's a crazy commercial that they think is funny but seriously ds is going into sixth grade and needs this shoot. I am freaking out. What to do?? My son has tics so it scares me. A part of this shot is tetanus which I think he needs because he is all over and who knows with boys. But combination with whopping caugh and the other I just don't know! This is a crazy hard decision to make especially when you kid is dealing with tics and/or with other issues. I am stressed and don't know what to do also. Anyone chime in please. Ds has allergies also so need to look into that! Mar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cj60 Posted April 26, 2013 Report Share Posted April 26, 2013 I stopped having my son (and my daughter for that matter) vaccinated. It didn't make sense to me to be injecting him with crap that could compromise his immune system at a time when we were all working very hard to clean and strenghten it naturally. Not to knock our generic pediatricians, but I'm knocking. Ours was contrary throughout our vaccination information gathering process. We found support through an alternative practice which provided us with an exemption form that was accepted without question by our son's school. We are currently considering whether to do one or two vaccinations. If we do, they will be given separately and with plenty of time in between to monitor things. (There's some valuable, expert vaccination info on here and on the PANS / PANDAS forum if you have a little time to search.) - Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
