Statistically, there's no evidence that thimerosal ever caused problems -- but I don't miss it. I wish it was the problem. It would have been such a simple fix. <BR/><BR/>The only one of my children with whom got Rhogam with thimerosal prenatally has virtually identical learning issues to my middle child who didn't. His are a little more severe, but I don't think it's related to the Rhogam. Both of them are Rh negative, so at least the other RH issues don't apply.Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08237756183010257014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13203859.post-14352710654439524482007-08-10T13:59:00.000-04:002007-08-10T13:59:00.000-04:00Judy, as late as 2003, my doctor's office still ha...Judy, as late as 2003, my doctor's office still had thimerosal in the vaccines... it takes so darn long to clear through the stockpiles.<BR/><BR/>Also... you know I vax. ;) I had Rhogam with thimerosal with two kids. The other two kids I took BayRho, no preservatives. Guess which two have sensory problems with developmental delays?<BR/><BR/>Obviously, I'll never know if that contributed. But anecdotally, it preys on a mother's guilt.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01702880935830789894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13203859.post-24121565687635258242007-08-09T11:47:00.000-04:002007-08-09T11:47:00.000-04:00And I should have made more of an effort to find o...And I should have made more of an effort to find out the dates of the study participants.

I'll add your comment to my post. Thanks for the hint.Christianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09160555681387976338noreply@blogger.com
