[QUOTE=", post: 2839"] Kathy- It seems like alot of us become sensitive to it. I found out the same way when I was wearing contacts. I then started to get the same infections from soft lenses when I switched. I guess my eyes became sensitive to anything foreign after the thimerosol. Now this has come out about bowel disease and having measles, so it seems that both strains can cause problems in someone that is susceptable. 286871 Reuters Health - Early measles infection may increase the risk of developing Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, according to researchers from the Mayo Clinic. The report is the latest in a series of reports over the last few years, previously reported by Reuters Health, which have either bolstered or questioned the link between measles infection and inflammatory bowel disease. . Noting that others have found no difference in the rate of measles infection in those diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease, Dr. Pardi and colleagues suggest that "infection before the development of full immunological competence may lead to viral persistence." They also suggest that other factors, such as infection with mumps virus, may contribute to the development of inflammatory bowel disease. The investigators also emphasized that their study did not consider the effect of measles vaccination, and "unless more compelling data become available to implicate measles vaccine as a risk factor for inflammatory bowel disease, we fully support the current recommendation for universal vaccination against measles." Am J Gastroenterol 2000;95:1480-1485. Julie-I know it worries you thinking about vaccines. I can't tell you what to do but I can tell you our peds opinions, if it helps.

According to this they are planning to remove Thimerosol from the vaccines. CDC Says Vaccine To Be Mercury-Free [By Bob Groves of the Record Online of Bergen County, New Jersey, Friday, June 16, 2000.] "The Food and Drug Administration had ruled for years that thimerosal was safe. Last year, however, the FDA recommended that thimerosal be discontinued after finding that some infants might build up harmful levels of ethyl mercury over time. "Our goal is to [achieve] a thimerosal-free children's immunization schedule by early 2001," said Glen Nowak, spokesman for the CDC immunization program. [/QUOTE]
