Flu Vaccine Adverse Reactions

The Thinktwice Global Vaccine Institute receives independent data on adverse reactions to vaccines. Some typical unsolicited reports on the flu vaccine are included below:
[Flu102] My husband had a flu shot in January and experienced swelling in his axilla that night, probably the lymph nodes. After that, he became weak and chilled all the time, with a dry cough. During the next two months, the coughing, weakness and chills persisted, and by the end of the second month he was vomiting. His doctor did several tests until one showed acute kidney failure. He was diagnosed with Goodpastures syndrome. This condition causes an abnormal amount of antibodies in the blood, causing them to attack the kidneys and lungs. The treatment is immune suppressive therapy. Isn’t that ironic. It seems that the flu shot that is supposed to build up immunity caused his to work too hard and didn’t know when to shut down. Needless to say, the doctors refuse to admit that the flu shot caused this. He has been unable to work, gets tired, and is at increased risk of catching a virus due to drug therapy.
[Flu134] I had a flu shot in November, and by December I became weak and continued to get weaker until I collapsed in my bedroom and was taken to the hospital. I was surrounded with intravenous lines, a feeding tube, bladder catheter, and tracheotomy for the ventilator. I was helpless, totally paralyzed with Guillain-Barre syndrome. I had a blood infection, pneumonia, a fever of 107.9 degrees, and blood pressure of 44 over zero. My wife was told to make arrangements for a post-mortem. I was ICU for three weeks and then transferred to a rehabilitation center. Three months later I was released to come home because I could ambulate approximately 100 feet with a walker. I continued rehabilitation as an outpatient for the next three months until I could walk with hand crutches. Today I need a cane. I was not forewarned of any possible hazard when they gave me the flu shot.
[Flu203] I received a flu shot in November, and in January I started to get a body rash. I am achy in my (vaccine) arm and neck. I believe the shot may be responsible for my misery.
[Flu214] Three years ago I was given one of only four flu shots I ever had. What was unknown to me was that a strain of mono was included in the vaccine. I believe it was this strain that infected me and almost killed me. The next year, unaware and never warned by doctors, I took the flu shot again. This time it contained a deadly strain that put me in ICU fighting for my life.
[Flu253] My wife was diagnosed with subcutaneous T-cell lymphoma after receiving a flu shot. The doctor did not write down the brand or lot number. Two weeks after receiving the flu shot, lumps started appearing on her legs.
[Flu325] I have a friend who received a flu vaccine on Monday and by Tuesday she was very sick. After many tests the doctors said it was not a reaction to the flu shot. Their diagnosis was “reactivated mono”—despite the fact that she never had mono. I have heard many people swear that they’ll never get another flu vaccine. Now I understand.
[Flu368] The sister of an acquaintance died suddenly two nights ago. She was in her 40s and otherwise healthy. She got a flu shot that day, came home complaining about not feeling well, and died that night. She died at home, rather suddenly, without warning. Do you know if this is an unusual coincidence or a recurring pattern?(52)
