I suspect every strange malady that happens to anyone after a flu shot will be blamed on the shot.

She was fine when she had sex with me the day of the shot.

I checked snopes and they are following it but have not come to a conclusion on validity as of today.

says in the report it was a seasonal flu shot - I did not hear an H1N1 mention.

I wonder why the original news video emphasized her cheerleading...does this mean if she wasn't a former cheerleader it wouldn't have been tragic?

It was probably the cheerleading outfit that caused the problem.

The cheerleading provides an 'athleticism' counterpoint to the "debilitating physical disease" portion of the story.

And, cheerleading is sexy, and TV ratings are all about the sexy.

That girl has psych issues. There is no neurological condition that causes those symptoms.

Unable to walk forwards but ok walking backwards? Somehow able to run completely normally then suddenly stops and nearly in convulsions?

She's is able to talk normally while running but slurs her speech horribly every other time. LOL.

Total BS.

I find it amazing that the news didn't run this story by their medical consultant at least. Anyone who has been through medical school could have told you this was BS.

The kicker is that she went to a quack who is best known for injecting his patients with human urine (yes you read that correctly) and was magically CURED after 15 seconds of a "detoxifying treatment".

Psychogenic illness pure and simple...and that's if you give her the benefit of the doubt and don't assume she was trying to pull a balloon boy.

The kind that repeats itself, apparently.
