🎃 Decorative Gourd Mikell 🎃 @mikell.bsky.social · 13hBut vaccines don’t cause Dravet. They can increase certain risks, but sometimes the risk/benefit calculus still comes out on the side of vaccinating (as it does for us) Knowledge is power and we should screen for mutations, not stop vaccinating kids. 140
🎃 Decorative Gourd Mikell 🎃 @mikell.bsky.social · 13hBut some Dravet kids have incredibly severe seizures that land them in the ICU, intubated and in a medically induced coma because the seizure won’t stop I fully support those parents stopping vaccines 130
🎃 Decorative Gourd Mikell 🎃 @mikell.bsky.social · 13hHe still usually has seizures after Covid shots It’s still worth it to me because i prefer predictable seizures to unpredictable infections AND seizures 120
🎃 Decorative Gourd Mikell 🎃 @mikell.bsky.social · 13hLike to be perfectly clear my son is fully vaccinated but after he had a bunch of big seizures after his first MMR we made sure he never got one while ill, never got more than one at a time, and we take other precautions to manage the seizure risk with every shot 130
🎃 Decorative Gourd Mikell 🎃 @mikell.bsky.social · 13hGenuinely what I think this points to is screening for this mutation (and there are a few others that have similar immuneresponse triggers) earlier in infancy because this can be a legitimate reason to forego vaccination, or at least to do it with readiness for possible seizures 130
🎃 Decorative Gourd Mikell 🎃 @mikell.bsky.social · 14hI totally get how people tried to connect dots before the genetics were understood, and since epilepsy and autism are frequently comorbid - esp for Dravet kids - I get it. I so get it. But there is very clearly a correlation with a very specific genetic mutation. Not Tylenol or vaccines or whatnot 130
🎃 Decorative Gourd Mikell 🎃 @mikell.bsky.social · 14hHowever there are plenty of kids with Dravet Syndrome (the worst case pathology of this mutation) who never had vaccines and still have an epileptic encephalopathy, or in our case a kid who was fine with his vaccines but had his first seizure a month later 110
🎃 Decorative Gourd Mikell 🎃 @mikell.bsky.social · 14hThis led for a long time to people reasoning, understandably, that “I had a healthy baby, and then they had their first vaccines and they had a seizure and were never the same after” 120
🎃 Decorative Gourd Mikell 🎃 @mikell.bsky.social · 14hIf you haven’t heard me get on my soapbox about this We do a lot to protect newborns from infection, so these days, most babies’ first major immune system challenge is their four month vaccines Babies with a pathogenic SCN1A mutation often have their first seizure at this time 120
