Researchers published a paper in August 2012 about a side effect of vaccinations: Complex regional pain syndrome type 1.
The authors are Stephanie Richards and George Chalkiadis of the Royal
Children’s Hospital, Melbourne; Raman Lakshman of the Department of
Pediatrics, West Suffolk Hospital NHS Trust, Suffolk, UK; Jim P Buttery
of the Murdock Children’s Research Institute and the Pediatric
Infectious Diseases Unit, Monash Children’s Hospital, Monash University
in Melbourne; and Nigel W Crawford of Royal Children’s Hospital, Murdock
Children’s Research Institute, and Department of Pediatrics, The
University of Melbourne in Melbourne.
Complex regional pain syndrome previously was recognized as Reflex
Sympathetic Dystrophy that was characterized by severe pain, swelling
and changes to the skin, per Wikipedia. It has been associated with
dysregulation of the autonomic nervous system. According to Wikipedia,
type 1, also known as Sudeck’s atrophy, does not have demonstrable nerve
lesions. Interestingly though, Wikipedia states that causes are
unknown.
However, the Archives of Disease in Childhood [2012;97:10,913-15]
paper “Complex regional pain syndrome following immunisation,” states
that complex regional pain syndrome type 1 (CRPS-1) can affect one or
more extremities characterized by persistent pain with “at least one
sign of autonomic dysfunction in the affected limb(s).”
The paper goes on to state several precipitating factors. Perhaps the
most candid report of all is that CRPS-1 occurs following “immunisation
with rubella and hepatitis B vaccines.”
