It will include boosters for the other stuff but not sure on MMR, it used to include MMR so do check, but I know things have changed and with some vaccines the baby jabs are now thought adequate (polio?)I can't face looking at the article mentioned above but can suggest where people might find useful facts. Our first son became autistic at 15 months, over the course of a weekend, interestingly before he had the MMR, however he had it 4 months later - 1993, so when the partic bad strain was used. His autism coincided with sudden food refusal then bingeing on the foods that contain loads of opiate inducing gluten, we were to realise later. We found out he was autistic at 3, at 4 1/2 we had moved to Oxon and saw John Richer who told us to do the GF CF diet, which changed him in a month from someone the Ed psy was reccomending special school to a child who was to go to mainstream with an LSA. The mechanism that causes the gluten intolerance (leaky gut) and the build up with opiates in the brain is linked probs from measles virus, I have not kept up with the science but know this is what Paul Shattock at Sunderland is studying and he got an MBE! We refused boosters and all MMRs for the other 2 boys, we recently moved and I have put on surgery registration form about the boys not having had MMR. In March I signed consent for the teenage booster for the (now aspie) son, stating would not allow MMR, was not questioned on that. Dreading a barrage of letters from the NHS but interestingly the surgery that has had our dets for a month have not phoned me up or anything. I do not see the rationale behind single measles vaccines at present, perhaps I am just too stressed by other stuff to go into it, may make sense if the prob with the MMR was merely fronm a bad batch. Am happy to add name to petition or copy and send a letter, just dont feel up to the research but look up Paul Shattock's research, I think it is the Autism Research Unit at Sunderland, they do the urine test to see if your child would benefit from the diet.
Interestingly until 2 years ago Chris was hugely sensitive to gluten, I was being hassled re challengiing it for a more specific diagnosis (though I could have told them it wasn't coeliac)but he couldn't cope, we tried again in 2006 and he had lost all his reactions! I was finding the diet incompatible with eating outside the house in the UK (restaurants that did not know what was in their burgers (Old Orleans! and explaining for 1/2 hr in Pizza hut at Victoria because we had forgotten bases and the Sainsburys did not have them, that we wanted spag bol sans spaghetti! We are back on a normal diet, he may bit a bit more fuzzy but I felt it was worth that. What I am trying to say is that it appears if your child is on the diet that they may grow out of it as can happen with egg allergies. (sorry bit irrelevent) Back to MMR, I met a mum whose child definately reacted to and became autistic after the MMR and seeing a photo of him pre jab was heart rending, even if he would have had regressive autism I am sure the severe reaction to the jab and the severity of the regression were related to the MMR. Dont know why children cant be screened, one child even is one too many.
