vaccines cause epilepsy?

I'm very new to epilepsy and in the stages of researching it awaiting our first eeg, so if i'm using the wrong names for my descriptions, please forgive me and please do correct me as i'm only learning. My daughter had her first seizure about 12 hours after her mmr shot at 12 months. When i contacted the administering GP we were told it was a normal reaction to the vaccination febrile seizure, and it will not happen again. from then on she started having myoclonic seizures where her eyes would roll for a split second. when i mentioned this to the gp they said, those will go away with time. instead of going away they have increased in length and frequency. within 6 months i have started noticing absence seizures around 3-5 seconds long periods of spacing out, from which i couldn't get her out. gradually the eye flutters have been joined by an arm jerk. that's when i was sure this wasn't going to go away and requested an appointment (very long waiting times to see a neurologist here...). as she started to have night episodes of a series of myoclonic and absence seizures in rapid succession we got 'fast tracked' but still waiting for the appointment. all this time while talking to gps they all deny any connection between the mmr shot and the seizures, they refuse to register this as a vaccine reaction. if she has had hit her head 12 hours prior to having the first seizure, this would have been the explanation, but in the case of vaccines there's a wall of denial.

My son had his 1st seizure IN THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE 1-2 minutes after receiving two vaccinations. The seizures continued from that day forward. Three years later, the FDA and the CDC began a study to investigate the increase in reports of seizure following the Flu vaccine. In July 2011, I read that the preliminary results indicated that there is an increased risk of seizure when the Flu vaccine is given in conjunction with other vaccines, although the risk is less than 10%, with less than 1% of those children going on to develop a residual seizure disorder. We just happened to be in that less than 1% of 10% :-(  Of course, the VAERS "table" did not list seizure as an adverse reaction at the time that my son's problems began. The doctor informed me that there was no evidence of a link between the shots and my son's immediate adverse reaction so there was nothing to report&quot. The compensation program is very clear about a 3 year statute of limitations that begins from the date of injury, rather than the date of diagnosis - or the date of recognition by the medical community. Consequently, my son's problems, while reported to the pediatrician, were never reported to VAERS, so we're on our own trying to help him :-(

No more vaccines I hope. Trust your gut
