Isn’t this an advantage for a cheerleader?

My son had a dystonic reaction to a medication once. That was the only time we called paramedics to the house. It’s a horrible condition and his was of short duration, thank G-d.
People don’t hear enough about dystonia. Even the paramedics thought it could be meningitis. Dystonic allergic reactions will put the patient into something a layman could think of as a frozen seizure.
I would not give this vaccine to my family for $1,000,000. And I need the money.

At least she doesn’t have to run backwards. (Just an observation; I’m not trying to belittle her affliction)

Since she can run and speak normally as she is running, I am ever so hopeful she'll come out of this.

Because of the timeframe, there is no way this was a shot for H1N1. It had to be the regular seasonal flu shot.

I reviewed the VAERS data for 2008 on an earlier thread. There were only a handful of dystonia cases reported as possible reactions to vaccines. Only one followed a flu vaccine. She was better by the next morning, so they decided it was psychological, changed her meds--she was on antidepressants--and sent her home.
If this is a side effect of vaccination, it must be incredibly rare. About a third of the US population is vaccinated for flu, and there was only one (questionable!) case in 2008 (and she got better!). That's one per 100,000,000.
It's possible that some cases of dystonia got coded as something other than [D|d]ystoni*. Feel free to look at the data yourself:
