Missmom Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Just saw the news about the children in California experiencing polio type symptoms following respiratory illness. It may not be related to pans/pandas but those poor parents just like us are searching for answers. Would love to hear the pandas doctors opinion on all of this. They are saying it is not polio and all the children were vaccinated against polio but it is neurological in nature. I pray for those families.

3bmom Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 I do too! Just read an article on them them that it from an entero virus. I believe entero viruses are from a collapse of our innate immune system and HHV-6 is also an entero virus which we all know is implicated in PANDAS, Autism, and MS.

rowingmom Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Guillain–Barré syndrome from multiple vaccinations and stressed immune system? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missmom Posted February 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 I figured it had to be autoimmune. Now that this is receiving national press maybe they will catch someone's attention who can help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3bmom Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 In the GMO agriculture field a world renown plant pathologist who is a retired 4 star colonel has been trying to inform the medical community he has found a lyme like pathogen that I think is part bacterial and part viral. He has never seen this before and is extremely alarmed. He is being ignored by the FDA here but taken vary seriously in other countries. You can U-tube Dr. Donald Huber and hear his lecture over in Hawaii. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachel Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 I saw it on the world news this morning. I hope these families get answers and help they need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicklemama Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 Polio variant? I'm hoping they are saying its not polio just because those children have been vaccinated against polio. I read something interesting yesterday that talks about the original polio outbreaks and its relationship to an agricultural herbicide for mold. Very common. My lyme brain won't allow me to recall it right now, lol. It won't surprise me if its a polio variant that has mutated in the face of a chemical. Polio is/was a harmless enterovirus that mutated. 3bmom and rowingmom 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3bmom Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 I hope they get answers too and maybe it will bring together ALL pediatric Drs so they can compare notes and see we are loosing a generation of children to a myriad of health issues. rowingmom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missmom Posted February 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 I am trying to figure why only in california. Wonder if permanent damage has already been done or if they could reverse this with something like ivig or pex. Would love to hear from the parents about this. I bet we would get a much different story than what we are hearing about in the news. rowingmom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowingmom Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 The parents will be the first to figure it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3bmom Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 i wonder about IVIG too. In California we had a different strep strain with an increase in PANDAS so it may be a geographical virus. There are also supplements to support nerve regeneration but unless they get a full workup like we need with our kids, (which is difficult) it will be hard to get all the answers. Drs always want one factor when it is probably multiple factors. I compare it to a firing squad. You are so riddled with bullets you don't know which one did you in or who fired it. A PANDAS mom I know met a girl at a hockey game from Canada. She comes to the states because she lost her ability to walk and was in a wheelchair. An LLMD saved her and she is doing great. Hopefully someone will look for Lyme as an underlying factor before they contracted the virus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mama2alex Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 Here's an interesting blog post from Age of Autism. They speculate that exposure to pesticides combined with the enterovirus the articles mention could be causing the paralysis in these kids. http://www.ageofautism.com/2014/02/polio-like-cluster-in-california-has-eerie-echoes.html#more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSS Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 I don't even know what to say. I am in CA, and feed my kids non organic raspberries. Not anymore, but I have been just this week. My monthly food bill is more than my mortgage, but I can't buy EVERYTHING organic, already buying organic meat, veggies, eggs, etc. for family of 5. Pesticide link will be squashed lickidy split, think of the millions, perhaps a billion, in lost revenue if word got out on none organic produce linked to paralysis due to pesticides. Time to hoe and plant in the backyard, I guess. Don't mean to sound cold to the parents and children afflicted, believe me I am not, and have had real grief on what's happening to our children.
