Experts claim serious side effects of flu shots amount to about one in a million – well this is what that one in a million looks like. This has freaked me out enough to bypass flu shots in the future. But what do I know – to each their own. A 25 year old woman in Ashburn, Virginia has come down with a severe debilitating neurological disorder days after receiving a seasonal flu vaccination.

Dr. Charles McKay, a board member of the American College of Medical Toxicology, said Jennings would have been exposed to far less mercury in a flu shot than in a tuna steak.
Perhaps this “expert”? A man who never examined her, reviewed her medical records, (just like Novella), and just blew her off with the wave of his “tuna fish steak” But he got press! He got the “expert says” press……
Go ahead. You might actually even name someone I don’t know (*cough,cough*)
Name the “experts”.
@silkcat51
You can’t name your so-called “experts”. Since you made the claim here first, and wrote to others about it, how about you put up your “proof”. Name them.
Dr Rashid Buttar has never been called out or even convicted of “wrong-doing”.
Never lost his licence. Never been sued, EVER.
He uses “unorthodox” treatments….like chelation, yes. . Chelation has been used by medical doctors since 1945, in the US (because it works!) Or perhaps you mean, the HBOT therapy which is available all over Europe (because it works!). HBOT is legally used in the US, just not too available.
They don’t like him, because he CURES people. They want to “manage” disease
@silkcat51 You’ve already got one you have yet to refute. Waiting on that first.
Where are the experts that support this case? What you?
@DarkBunnyLord
Name the so-called “experts”. Name them. Let’s just see who they are.
@DarkBunnyLord
Oh yes, Yale. Home of the infamous, “Skull and Bones”. He even looks like he was pulled from the crypt.
@silkcat51 Get a grip yourself, the doctor she saw has been discredited by others in the scientific community himself. He’s a con-artist pulling a libido effect. This happens all the time, patient thinks they’re sick, they don’t believe normal doctors telling them it’s all in there head, they go to a doctor that uses unorthodox treatment, surprise they’re suddenly cured because they think it would work.
This isn’t the first time we’ve seen this happen.
@DarkBunnyLord
You should view the video of Desiree recovering in Dr Buttar’s clinic in October.
Where, after a few days treatment, she walks down the hallway, quite normally and throws her arms around her husband and kisses him .
Then ask yourself, sonny, “Why was Inside Edition so damned surprised in February (notice the winter coat she has on) that she was… walking, driving, etc.?”

Get a grip, Sherlock
@silkcat51 First you make up the “publicity hound” remark.
He’s a a professor at Yale, you don’t get there if you don’t know a thing or two about your field. As for being a known skeptic how is that even remotely a bad thing? What you’d rather have a doctor that just accepts everything they hear? Skepticism is NECESSARY in any type of science.
@silkcat51 No one claimed you couldn’t get Dystonia from a flue shot. Dr Steven Novella claimed that by looking at her the SEVERITY of her Dystonia couldn’t come from a flue shot.
You still haven’t refuted the simple evidence shown of her driving and walking normally after they left her.
Video: “Hot Cheerleader Hoax: Disorder After Flu Shot? (video)”
Whether that doctors wrong or not doesn’t change this.
Whats wrong with being a skeptic? It just means you want evidence and aren’t gullible.
Dr. Steven Novella, the professional skeptic, was given the task by Inside Edition of sitting in his armchair and viewing some video of Desiree Jennings. He gave then exactly what they wanted for their “hit piece”. That “it’s all in her head”.
That’s all people who wanted to call her “fake” and “fraud” needed — an “expert” with letters after his name, from Yale.
Now if you were ill, is that the kind of “expert” diagnosing you would want? From a professional skeptic that is a publicity hound?
@DarkBunnyLord Seen in these youtube videos, Dr. Steven Novella is an academic clinical neurologist at Yale University School of Medicine. He is the president and co-founder of the “New England Skeptical Society”. He is the host and producer of the popular weekly science podcast, “The Skeptics’ Guide to the Universe”. He is also a fellow of the Committee for “Skeptical Inquiry”(CSI). Novella has also appeared on “Penn and Teller Bullshit!” to debunk whatever they needed him for as a “expert” .
@DarkBunnyLord
Medical experts, you say? OK , name them. Give us their names. Do you want to name the breast cancer specialist who claims he got her VAERS report? VAERS reports NEVER have the name of the patient on them.
He just went fishing for “Dystonia from flu shot ” victims. Found one about her/his age, and said “Ah, This MUST be her! And blazed his “discovery” all over the net.
“Dystonia from flu shot” —does that give you a clue here?
I’ll address Dr. Novella in my next post.
Yeah I rewatched and My Opinion is that I no Longer have one. This is so all over the place that my Life does not have time to sit and analyze this stuff.I am no medical expert and everyone will have there own non medical opinions.Leave it to the experts.I just pray she wouldnt make something like this up.But as for me watching anything else to try and figure it out…I’m out. I have to go take care of my family now. Have a good one.
@silkcat51 How is it BS? Medical experts already agree that she DID NOT get this from a flue shot because it’s caused by mercury, and there’s less mercury in a flue shot than there is in tuna.
On top of that there is VIDEO EVIDENCE of her driving and walking normally when the same people that did this interview spy on her. Look it up on youtube, takes about 6 seconds to find, you’d know that if you bothered to do any research instead of just running your mouth.
@DarkBunnyLord
Fraud is illegal. Especially when it involved medicine. Especially when it involves money. Especially when it involves insurance.
If she faked this, she would have gone to prison.
Remember the ‘balloon boy hoax’? They did jail time over it.
Every single thing DarkBunnyLord told you about this was complete BS.

@MissLauraDevine
Yes, you should see the video they did after this, of her recovering in Dr Buttar’s clinic. Then see the video DarkBunnyLord is talking about, 3 months later, when they were so “surprised” to find her walking normally, driving, shopping. As for the English accent, just google “Foreign Accent Syndrome”. It happens with brain damage. “Top specialist” he refers to? No responsible, ethical physician makes diagnosis of a person just by viewing a video clip of them. He was a plant
she faked it.
@DarkBunnyLord No I havent seen any other videos but I will Watch. Thanks
@MissLauraDevine Have you seen the video’s they did after this? They find her driving, walking to a store, etc all normally without any trouble. Not only that she then starts talking with an English accent claiming it is also an effect. On top of that specialists that reviewed her case have stated that there is not enough mercury in a flew shot to cause this potent of a reaction, and that they think it’s likely a psychological issue, not something physical.
@DarkBunnyLord I know pepople make things up but I really do not believe that this would be made up. Maybe that it came from a flu shot is possible but they may not know exactly. She does not look like a girl who needs attention in any way. She has a husband and was living her dream. Attention like this is not something I think she would go for if she wanted any at all. It is just my opinion. I get what your saying but I dont believe this is fake.
@MissLauraDevine You don’t believe someone would make this up? You obviously don’t pay much attention to the crazy shit people do.
People make shit like this up all the time to gain attention, money (they get paid for interviews like this after all) not to mention government support, free medical coverage, etc.
Mostly it’s attention, it’s the same reason you see dumb asses go up on American Idol that clearly can’t sing.
@MelanieLouM Why on earth would you pissed at them. They can’t cover the millions people would ask for when this happened without screwing everyone else (taxes are high enough thank you very much).
It’s a take at your own risk thing, that or they don’t give it out at all and thousand of people die each year. Medicine will always have risky rare side effects, you can live with that thought and take a risk or risk the very more likely circumstance of just outright dying from not partaking.
Thats so weird how she can run normally and talk normally while she’s running. That’s one screwed up disorder. It’s like she’s faking it or something.
